Although he was puzzled, he still wanted to take a look. Su Mu glanced at Liu Xiaoran, who was clearly unable to move, and immediately volunteered to run to the door. To be on the safe side, he asked a question first as there was no cat's eye..

"Which one?"

The people outside the door seemed a little surprised, and after a "Huh", they said, "Su Marquis?"

The voice sounded familiar, but Su Mu didn't remember where he heard it for a while, but still subconsciously paused the movements of his hands.

Because the voice seemed to be that of a girl.

The owner here is undoubtedly Liu Xiaoran. This girl came here in the middle of the night looking for someone. Since she is not a passer-by, she must have come for the owner's family. But at this time, there is a curfew, and now it is in the middle of the night...

He thought about it a thousand times, but it was still not polite to ask the girl to wait outside, so he paused, but still opened the door.

"The girl is—" The moment she opened the door and looked at her eyes, Su Mu felt that the person was more and more familiar, "Miss Liu?"

The people outside the door were Liu Luoxian and her maid named A'bi who had met them once in Winter Hunting.

"Master Su, my daughter is being polite." Liu Luoxian was startled when she saw Su Mu, then she lowered her head in embarrassment and leaned over to salute.

There was no sound coming from behind, presumably Liu Xiaoran hadn't noticed the movement here, but since this is Liu Xiaoran's distant sister, she should let someone in, so Su Mu could only smile and make a way out, but alwaysSomething is not quite right.

Even if they are relatives with some blood relationship, Miss Liu is not at home at night, what is she doing here with Liu Xiaoran?

Liu Luoxian stepped into the door, and didn't say why he came, but asked, "I wonder if Brother Xuan is there?"

"Liu Shaoqing—here, here we come." Su Mu glanced over Liu Luoxian's head, and looked at Liu Xiaoran who was walking from a distance with frowning eyebrows.

Fortunately, Liu Xiaoran was very meticulous in her work, and there were no vegetable leaves from the kitchen on her body. She didn't look like she just came out of the kitchen, but rather like she just came out of the study.

Following his gaze, Liu Luoxian turned back and saw Liu Xiaoran, and immediately greeted Li again, and confessed why she came here before Liu Xiaoran opened her mouth to ask.

"Brother Xuan, Luo Xian was wandering around in Yiningfang, but he didn't want to miss the time in the nearby restaurant. When he came out, he found that the curfew was coming, and there were no other familiar places in the vicinity, so he justI can come here." She looked pitiful, and A'bi's hands were full of things, looking like she had just finished shopping.

Although Su Mu retained certain doubts about these remarks, he also knew that this was the end of the matter, and it was a foregone conclusion that Liu Luoxian would stay here overnight.

How can it be such a coincidence?This is the first time I wanted to stay overnight on a whim, and just happened to meet Liu Luoxian and missed the curfew?

It's not that he doesn't want to share that bowl of noodle soup with others, but it's just a little strange, and Liu Xiaoran once said that he is not close to this younger sister, but Liu Luoxian is like brother Xuan like everyone else.Like brothers and sisters, if they are not really social terrorists, they must have a purpose.

Su Mu pinched his palms, two voices in his heart were arguing fiercely, one of them bluntly said that it was because of something different in his heart that he was so unreasonably suspicious of the little girl, but the other vowed sternly, showing that Liu LuoxianUnwarranted suspicion.

Maybe Miss Renliu is just a little dependent on her brother whom she met a few times when she was a child in this unfamiliar Capital City.

Abandoning these thoughts, he is now sitting at the table with Liu Luoxian and eating the noodles that Liu Xiaoran just made.

Liu Luoxian chewed in small sips, raised her eyes to look at Su Mu from time to time, then quickly retracted them, and continued to take a bite with her red ears.

Su Mu also felt a little uncomfortable all over, and it wasn't that he had eaten at the table with the girl before, but it was the first time that he faced each other and was slightly embarrassed.

Liu Xiaoran was packing her things expressionlessly in the kitchen, and she also had a lot of suspicion in her heart.

It stands to reason that Liu Luoxian's parents should have nothing to do with these corrupt people, so they should have nothing to do with the things he investigated. Such frequent encounters made it hard for him to believe that they were all coincidences, but he couldn't find them.What good reason—

Suddenly, an inexplicable thought flashed through his mind, and a scene from the past emerged.

Liu Luoxian seemed to be particularly shy when dealing with Su Mu. She always had to bow her head for a long time before answering after she said a word, and her exposed ears were often flushed red, but she still wanted to take a look from time to time.

Could it be that he came here for Su Mu?

Liu Xiaoran's hands stopped unconsciously, and her brows were also tightly furrowed.

But if this is the case, Su Mu's coming here today can be regarded as a temporary idea, how did Liu Luoxian know, could it be that he has been secretly following her all this time?If she stayed in Dongshou, it would take another two or three days before she came back. How could she have already bought it in Capital City today?

The combination of all kinds of signs point to the fact that Liu Luoxian did this on purpose.

But, what do you want?

He arranged for Liu Luoxian a guest room on the east side, and let Su Mu live in his west side, with his room separated between them, so that even if there was any movement at night, he should be able to notice it.

When Liu Xiaoran lay down, there was still a strange feeling in her heart.

Is all this just my own overthinking?

It was only because I had not pure thoughts about Su Mu that I speculated about Liu Luoxian's intentions. After all, all of this could be explained by other coincidences, and I chose the worst solution.

Su Mu on the other side also couldn't close his eyes. He always felt weird. The novelty and excitement when he first came seemed to be completely disturbed by Liu Luoxian's sudden appearance.

Although the two had different thoughts, neither of them had a good night's sleep.

On the second day, it was hard for Su Mu and Liu Xiaoran to recover a bit. After finishing their work, Su Mu and Liu Xiaoran were about to send Liu Luoxian out and rush to Dali Temple to continue the investigation yesterday, but Liu Luoxian suddenly stopped when they were about to leave.Su Mo.

"Su... Marquis Su, my daughter's uncle and grandpa in central Beijing arranged for my daughter's family to live not far from Andinghou's mansion. I'm new here and I'm not familiar with people in Capital City. My daughter's parents have heard about Lord Hou for a long time.Daming, if Lord Hou is free someday, it would be the best to see his honor."

Su Mu was even more uncomfortable with what he said. Although he bears the name of Marquis, he still knows how much he has in the court. He really doesn't believe Liu Luoxian's words.Goosebumps all over his body instantly, but looking at the pitiful girl with downcast eyes, he really didn't know what to say to refuse, so he could only answer vaguely: "Praise."

Then Liu Xiaoran said coldly: "I still have important things to do, so I won't accompany you."

After speaking, he pulled Su Mu to turn around and left. When the two of them disappeared around the corner, Liu Luoxian showed a bit of disdain, and straightened his slightly bent waist.

She snorted contemptuously, turned around, and walked out in the opposite direction.

Su Mu was dragged by Liu Xiaoran's wrist and walked two steps. Liu Xiaoran's pace was obviously much faster than usual, and she barely kept up with his speed, but the feeling of being led away was obviously a bit too restrained, he could onlyA voice reminded: "I can't see anyone anymore, you can let me go."

Liu Xiaoran then slowed down a little, and let go of Su Mu's hand.

"What's wrong? You look so ugly?" Although he could vaguely guess some reasons, Su Mu was still taken aback by Liu Xiaoran's gloomy expression.

Liu Xiaoran didn't reply, but still frowned, apparently feeling that it was hard to talk about this matter, so Su Mu simply raised her head: "Does Yan Xuan also think that your sister seems to have some other purpose?"

Liu Xiaoran raised her eyes, seeing that Su Mu hadn't said a word, Su Mu was stared a little nervously, and immediately added a sentence.

"I don't mean to offend, I just think it's a bit too coincidental."

Liu Xiaoran didn't refute, but nodded silently. It turned out that Su Mu felt the same way, so it wasn't because she was supercilious, and what Liu Luoxian said before leaving today made him even more concerned.

Even though the name of Marquis Anding was indeed powerful in the government and the public, it was only a few years ago when Su Yi was fighting in all directions. Liu Luoxian's father was only in the county government, and he was in the affluent Jiangnan area, so he had never received the favor of Marquis Anding, How did you become interested in Su Mu?

He suddenly glanced at Su Mu's face uncomfortably.

Could it be that he fell in love with it during winter hunting...

Su Mu was waiting for Liu Xiaoran's next words, but when he turned around, he found that the other party was looking at him, looking at him thoughtfully, and suddenly he was unable to make any sense of the matter.

Your sister, why are you looking at me?

After a while, he asked with some uncertainty: "What? Is there something on my face today?"

Liu Xiaoran shook her head, sighed, but finally said nothing.

It's better not to tell Su Mu easily about such speculation.

Not long after the two of them arrived at Dali Temple, there were several hurried footsteps outside the door, and then someone knocked on Liu Xiaoran's room door.

"Lord Liu, at this early morning, someone found a dead body in the pond in the Huancai Pavilion in the city. Lord Fuyin, please go and have a look."

Both Su Mu and Liu Xiaoran frowned. Ordinary murders would not alarm the Dali Temple. Only when important cases or dignitaries were involved, these matters would be handed over to the Dali Temple. Judging from the current situation, it could be related to corruptionSomeone involved?

Moreover, it is Huancai Pavilion again.

The two looked at each other and stood up together.

When they arrived, the old bustard of Huancai Pavilion was crying and wailing fiercely. Only a few months had passed since Li Qingyuan's case, another murder case occurred here, and when the year was approaching,Don't let the boss worry to death.

This is really unlucky, and I am afraid that no one will want to come here for fun in the future.

Before Su Mu could squeeze in, someone's voice reached his ears.

"Last time it was the little Marquis from the Andinghou Mansion, this time it's the Second Young Master. Hey, do you think the Andinghou Mansion has any enmity with the Huancai Pavilion?"

Su Mu's footsteps stopped, and there was a rumble in his head.

Second son?

Su Qi is dead?
