Bab 377: Chong Ba is a Fool

Chu Hanming smiled as he spoke, "Thank you very much, Chief Manager Wang. Without your help, I wouldn't have managed this task so smoothly."

However, in his heart, he was cursing. If it weren't for making his act more convincing, he wouldn't have lingered outside the palace for so long before entering.

Chief Manager Wang didn't sense anything amiss and pulled Chu Hanming aside, whispering, "Lord Chu, did you get it?"

Having used both threats and temptations, Chief Manager Wang was cautious. He was convinced Chu Hanming must have stolen the True Word Talisman.

As expected, Chu Hanming replied, "Keep it down. Yes, I got it, but it wasn't easy."

Chief Manager Wang grinned widely, "I knew Lord Chu would get it done."

He stretched out his hand eagerly for the True Word Talisman.
