As soon as the sky darkened, the servants of the magistrate's family came over and called Lin Zao to attend the dinner. She packed up casually and went out.

When Lin Zao went out, she met the neighbor who knocked on the door but no one paid attention to her. She just opened the door and walked out.

He was wearing a black outfit, with a cold expression, and walked past Lin Zao without looking away.

Lin Zao stared at the man's back blankly, feeling turbulent in his heart.

"Brother Wang, why are you standing here in a daze? The banquet is about to start, we should go over."

Huang Xiaohu's voice suddenly woke Lin Zao up. He nodded towards Huang Xiaohu absentmindedly and followed him towards the most brilliantly lit place in the night.

The reason why Lin Zao acted like this was because the man in black looked exactly like the idiot Xiao Wu who lived in her house.

If it weren't for the fact that one of them had a pure temperament and the other was cold, she almost thought they were the same person.

But she was sure that when she left, Xiao Wu was still going to Dr. Zhang for acupuncture regularly, and his memory had not yet recovered, so the man in black was definitely not Xiao Wu.

They looked exactly the same. No one would believe that they were not related. Judging from the fact that they were about the same age, Lin Zao guessed that they were twins.

It seems that if you want to know the origin of Xiao Wu, this man in black is the key.

Lin Zao made up his mind to find a chance to talk to the man in black, then put his thoughts away and paid attention to the surrounding environment.

At this moment, she and Huang Xiaohu hadn't reached the dinner place yet, but both sides of the road were already covered with lanterns, illuminating the surrounding area as brightly as day.

The further they walked, the louder the noise inside became, and there were bursts of laughter.

"Here we are, this is the place for the dinner. Brother Wang will have a good time later." Huang Xiaohu smiled with a wretched look on his face.

Lin Zao smiled dryly without saying anything. Huang Xiaohu didn't mind at all. He thought it was Lin Zao's first time attending such a banquet and he was too nervous.

Seeing Huang Xiaohu walking in happily, Lin Zao followed behind and walked in.

"Oh, Mr. Wang, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Come and sit here."

Before Lin Zao could clearly see what was going on in the hall, the voice of the prefect's housekeeper came to her ears.

When she turned around, she saw the butler looking at her with a smile on her face and enthusiastically taking Lin Zao to her seat.

The eyes of Huang Xiaohu who was watching next to him kept flickering, and he was already sure in his heart that his brother Wang had an unusual identity.

Seeing that the housekeeper was so enthusiastic towards her, there might be some connection between the two, so she made up her mind to have a good relationship with Lin Zao.

There are many dangers on the treasure hunt, and maybe he can rely on this brother to save his life.

Lin Zao didn't know what Huang Xiaohu was thinking. If she knew, she would probably lament that Huang Xiaohu's plan was wrong. After all, she didn't plan to go treasure hunting with them.

She had to hurry up and return to Qianzhou. The children were still waiting for her at home, and she had no intention of getting involved in the treasure map.

If she really had that idea, she would not have given the key to the treasure map to the young Marquis of Jingyuan.

However, Lin Zao couldn't figure out why the prefect's housekeeper was so enthusiastic about him.

Moreover, when she was in the inn, the housekeeper recognized her at a glance and took the initiative to reveal the news of the prefect's recruitment to her.

At that time, she thought that the housekeeper was casting a wide net, but now that she knew from Huang Xiaohu that the prefect had rarely hired new people recently, she understood that she had guessed wrong.

So what was the purpose of this housekeeper being so polite to her?

Is it because she is the savior of the prefect?
