Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Gu Jin Comes to The Door!
"Me?" Hearing this Noah looked puzzled and used his senses to probe the identity of the person outside. He raised his eyebrows seeing that it was none other than Gu Jin!
Even though they had not met face to face yet, Noah was already aware of the looks and names of the important people in this city.
He had been collecting information through Elysia after hearing about what happened with the Xu Family.
He believed in the saying: Know your enemy's deepest secret, even the color of the lips of their mistress. As for which lips... Hehe~
He did not know who came up with it but he naturally did not disagree with it. Such insights always helped him survive.
Xin Yan was a little surprised to see his reaction when she told him about what happened, Noah was eerily silent that day. In the night he silently left Elysia and came back after a few hours, playing with a shiny red thumb sized object.
He did not say anything about where he was or what he did but when she heard about the disappearance of the Xu family without any trace, she immediately knew who was responsible for it but she did not ask him anything about it.
While looking at the boy, she could not help but feel a deep throb in her heart. A feeling she could not have imagined started budding inside of her unknown to her.
"Please guide the man towards the hall, I will be waiting for him there." Noah smiled warmly at Aunty Wang, making her blush a little but she was not a little girl and recovered easily. She bowed and left the scene.
Although she did not see it, two women were looking at her like they wanted to kill her nine generations upon seeing her reaction.
"Let's go and meet our guest."
Noah, also did not see their action but moved towards the main hall.

Be it purely a business or romantic relationship, it did not matter.
"That...I am not at liberty to say. Why don't the young master follow me to find out instead. It's naturally nothing that will trouble the young master." Gu Jin displayed a helpless expression on his face as he explained.
This matter was not something he had the authority to discuss without the permission of the city lord. He did not want the boy to think that they were planning something against him too.
"What do you think?"
Instead of answering, Noah turned to look at Xin Yan and asked for her opinion. In the eyes of Gu Jin it was only natural for a boy to consult his parents, so he did not say anything.
"I will follow you if you decide to visit." Xin Yan sitting beside him just left the decision to him. Even if he decided to go and meet the city lord she would definitely follow him.
Who knows if that man is planning something bad...
At least she would be there to protect Noah if something goes sideways. Noah could easily tell what she was thinking. Even though he did not need her protection, he appreciated her help.
"When does he want me to visit?"
Hearing those words Gu Jin was elated and could not help but smile widely.
"We can leave right now. The city lord is free at the moment and he told me if you could meet him now that would be better." Noah nodded and got up before replying.
"Then let's leave right away."
Gu Jin also got up and the three of them made their way to the city lord mansion along with someone trailing behind them hiding from the commander.
They entered the carriage in which Gu Jin arrived which was prepared for them and took off in the direction of the mansion.
