Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 514

Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Night Visit to the Yuan Family

The car stopped some distance from the Yuan family’s residence. By the time the two arrived in the Yuan family’s neighborhood, most households had already turned off their lights.

The Yuan family’s courtyard now housed numerous families. Some residents worked evening shifts, others night shifts, so the main gate was merely closed, not bolted.

It opened easily with a gentle push.

After slipping in quietly, they found many makeshift structures erected within the courtyard. A circuit of the front courtyard revealed at least five families residing there, evidenced by the small, individually constructed kitchens.

The second courtyard was much the same: only pathways remained. Residents had utilized every spare inch of space. Since everyone was doing it, no one voiced any complaints.

Upon reaching the third courtyard, they located the room her master had mentioned and found it occupied as well.

Having come this far, they naturally intended to look inside so they could report back to her master.

Yunyi signaled Huo Jingrui, then produced the sleep-inducing incense she’d made in her leisure. Lighting a small piece, she poked a hole in the paper covering a corner of the window with her finger and tossed the incense inside.

Fifteen minutes later, Huo Jingrui used the dagger Yunyi had retrieved from her space to disengage the inner door bolt. He gently pushed the door open, letting the air inside circulate for a moment before signaling Yunyi to enter.

Huo Jingrui deliberately stepped aside to keep watch.

Even before entering, Yunyi had already scanned the room’s interior with her spiritual power.

Once inside, she went straight to the spot her master had indicated. An old-fashioned cabinet stood there. She first moved it into her space, then, after triple-checking that the area showed no signs of disturbance, she returned the cabinet to its original position.

Having seen it for herself, she felt reassured; at least she could now give her master a proper account.

Her master had mentioned that if it was convenient, she should retrieve some items from within. Yunyi understood his meaning perfectly. However, it wasn’t as if she couldn’t support him and his grandson, so she naturally wouldn’t touch her master’s belongings. Furthermore, with people living in the room, she couldn’t risk recklessly opening the secret chamber.

Knowing the secret chamber hadn’t been discovered, she exited the room.
