CHAPTER 437: CHAPTER 435: MYSTERIOUS FIGURE

Luo Jingwei spoke with a calm expression, appearing very confident.

Qin Hao recalled that when Jin Qi heard Luo Jingwei’s husband’s name earlier, he looked quite apprehensive. Qin Hao also smiled and said:

"That’s good. It seems like you’ve married a good husband! But why haven’t I seen him?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jingwei’s expression darkened, but she quickly forced a smile and said, "Oh, him. He has some matters to attend to, so he’s temporarily out of the country. But he should be back soon."

Qin Hao keenly noticed a subtle change in Luo Jingwei’s demeanor and hesitantly probed, "Is he doing alright?"

Luo Jingwei sighed lightly and then said, "He’s fine. No problems."

At this moment, Qin Hao also detected something unusual and immediately said, "If there’s anything going on, you can tell me. If there’s any way I can help, I certainly won’t stand by idly."

Luo Jingwei opened her mouth, about to say something, but then gently shook her head, smiled bleakly, and said, "Alright, thank you. But don’t ask about these things right now. If I ever need your help, I will definitely tell you, okay?"

Qin Hao nodded, and the two chatted for a bit more before Luo Jingwei got up to leave, leaving Qin Hao alone in the room to rest.

Luo Jingwei walked out the door, taking a deep breath. In front of Qin Hao, she had been trying hard to suppress those amorous feelings within her.

Immediately, she quickly returned to her room to take a shower and change her underwear.

However, as her figure disappeared down the corridor, a pair of eyes continued watching her until she disappeared around the staircase corner. The gaze flickered, and after pondering deeply for a while, a phone was finally taken out, and a call was made.

"Hello, what’s the situation?"

The call connected, and a voice on the other end directly asked.

The person hesitated for a moment and then said, "I saw Luo Jingwei with a stranger today. They appeared to be very close. Luo Jingwei entered that man’s room, and they stayed inside for a long time before she came out."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, and the person reporting the information didn’t dare to speak, waiting quietly. After a long time, the voice on the other end continued, "Is this information accurate?"

"Of course, it’s true. I saw it with my own eyes."

"Hmm, good. You’re doing well. Continue to observe. Report any situation to me immediately."

With that, the call was directly hung up. The person reporting the information then quietly left the hotel.

Time quickly passed to the evening.

In the afternoon, Qin Hao took a nap in the room to rest well. By the evening, he was preparing for his first night’s action, but suddenly, the jade pendant in his pocket became scorching hot.

Qin Hao immediately took out the jade pendant and held it in his hand. Ever since entering Jianghai City, the jade pendant had started to feel slightly warm, but now it was burning hot, indicating that the Vice Sect Leader of the Golden Stone Sect was nearby.

When Elder Jin handed the jade pendant to Qin Hao, he told him that the closer the two sides of the pendant were, the stronger the reaction would be.

Qin Hao held the jade pendant, feeling its burning heat in his palm, and happily thought to himself, "It’s like finding what you’ve been searching for without any effort!"

Immediately, Qin Hao packed his things and left. Lin Yuhan was poisoned, and the sooner he got the antidote back, the better.

Outside the hotel, Jin Family members were blocking the exits, constantly monitoring Qin Hao’s movements, ready to report to Jin Qi as soon as he showed up.

Although Qin Hao wasn’t afraid of the Jin Family, he was worried about being clung to by these bothersome individuals and having his important tasks delayed. So, he directly climbed out of the second-floor window, easily avoiding their spies, and walked outside the hotel.

Along the way, Qin Hao felt the temperature change of the jade pendant while constantly adjusting his direction. Eventually, he identified a hotel named Ruyi Court Hotel.

Standing at the hotel entrance, the jade pendant in Qin Hao’s hand was no longer hot but emitted a faint glow. This indicated that the Vice Sect Leader of the Golden Stone Sect was inside the Ruyi Court Hotel.

Qin Hao felt a surge of joy, adjusting his breath slightly, and then put away the jade pendant, concealing the sensory connection.

Elder Jin had mentioned that the jade pendants came in pairs and could sense each other. Since Qin Hao could detect the other party, they could also sense him. So, after confirming the other’s location, he put the jade pendant away.

At the same time, inside a mysterious room at the Ruyi Court Hotel, a middle-aged man leaned back on a sofa, leisurely sipping champagne.

On the table in front of him, a jade pendant was emitting a faint glow. He was curious about why Elder Jin had suddenly come to him, but the jade’s glow suddenly flickered and then disappeared without a trace.

This middle-aged man was astonished, while Qin Hao had already entered the hotel.

Upon entering, Qin Hao went to the front desk to book a room, pretending to check in. However, just as he took the room card and was about to head to the elevator, a figure in all black suddenly darted out of the bathroom on the first floor. The person quickly dashed up the stairs, disappearing from Qin Hao’s sight.

Qin Hao frowned slightly and immediately pursued.

The black figure moved stealthily. Although Qin Hao didn’t know his purpose and wasn’t in the mood for meddling, it was a crucial moment for him to meet the Vice Sect Leader of the Golden Stone Sect. Any unsettling factors had to be eliminated in advance.

He quietly followed to the stairwell, listening intently and catching the faint sound of footsteps from within.

Qin Hao immediately stopped hesitating, darting quickly and rushing up the stairs.

The mysterious figure in black cautiously climbed the stairs. Hearing footsteps behind, he sped up, running swiftly upward.

However, before taking a few steps, Qin Hao was already behind him, grabbing him by the neck and lifting him like a chick.

The person panicked, quickly drawing a sharp dagger, ready to stab backward. But what seemed like a swift strike had no real power for Qin Hao. He gently tapped the person’s wrist, and the dagger clattered to the ground.

The person tried to struggle, but Qin Hao effortlessly caught her, tearing off the mask covering her face.

Facing each other directly, both were momentarily stunned, then simultaneously shouted out.
