Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Got You Red-Handed Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Got You Red-Handed Speaking of which, it was unclear who those people persistently observing Miss Lin were. Eldest Prince guessed they might be the ones who poisoned the Elder Princess, he had already set people to investigate and believed that there would be news soon.

“No, I just need to talk to the Zeng family, my friend will come to pick me up later, don’t worry.” Lin Caisang explained.

“Alright then.”

Imperial Doctor Gu saw that she indeed wanted them to leave first, so he had no choice but to leave with the guards.

Before leaving, however, he thoroughly inspected each potential hiding spot in the alleyway, making sure it was safe. Only when he had frightened everyone away did he truly leave with his guards.

Once they left, Lin Caisang, seeing that there was no one around, finally took a bamboo basket out of her pearl space and carried it on her back.

Drawing up her hand, she knocked on the door of the Zeng Family.

Soon after, Old Man Zeng came out and opened the door. When he saw Lin Caisang, he hurriedly pulled her into the house.

“Miss Lin, why have you come at this hour?”

After he closed the gate, he lowered his voice and whispered to Lin Caisang. Then he peeked through the crack of the door carefully. After a while, he straightened up.

“Uncle Zeng, what are you doing?”

Lin Caisang was amused by the cautious look on his face. She laughed and asked him.

“To prevent thieves.”

Old Man Zeng replied.

“Miss Lin, you don’t know. Ever since you and the young master had stayed at my house for a night, I always feel like people are sneaking into my yard to find someone at night. You see, the day before yesterday, I caught someone red-handed.”

“What?!”

Lin Caisang was startled by his words and hurriedly took a careful look at him.

“You are okay, aren’t you?”

Those people were not good people. If they were caught in the act, it was very likely that they would kill to keep the secret. Anyway, they were all desperadoes who could do anything.

“Nothing happened.”

Old Man Zeng waved his hand and regained his cheerful demeanor.

“I didn’t dare to rush into the courtyard. I just stayed in my room and watched for any movement in the courtyard. It was pitch dark, they couldn’t see me.”

He wasn’t the kind of person who would rush out recklessly. After all, there was not only him in the house, but also his son. He couldn’t act rashly and endanger his son.

“That’s good.”

Lin Caisang let out a sigh of relief.

“Uncle Zeng, those people are targeting me. Please do not deliberately provoke them. As long as you pretend not to know anything, they will not hurt you. If you really can’t handle it, ask the Princess’ Mansion for help in my name. Elder Princess will help you.”

She thought for a while and warned Old Man Zeng.

She didn’t know who those people were yet. But there was a shift from hiding in the dark at first to revealing themselves now, and she didn’t believe it was because of their poor skills.

They deliberately let her know of their presence in order to lay the foundation for “recruiting” her in the future.

“Whether it’s blessings or disasters, we can’t avoid disasters. It’s okay.” Old Man Zeng was quite optimistic.

They were nothing more than ordinary market people, while those who were watching them were substantial figures. If these individuals were tracked down by the authorities for targeting them, they would certainly suffer a greater loss.

They wouldn’t be able to harm them.

“Miss Lin, why are you here today?” He asked.

“I treated Senior Madam Zhi’s face injury this morning. Since I still had time, I came over. I brought all the necessary medicine. If those who are looking for medicine come, could you help me to handle it directly? As for the silver, you can collect it as you see fit.”
