Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 207 The Spring Breeze Building is Dead
Lu Nanzhi chased him out but didn't see anyone. After searching for a long time, he saw a familiar figure.

Just around the corner, once the familiar sound enters the ears.

"Didn't I tell you, don't run around, your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"I……"

"How many people are staring at you now, what will happen to you, I have no ability to pull you back from the gate of hell."

"I just wanted to see him."

"Look at what, see how ungrateful he is,"

Lu Nanzhi lay on the wall, tilted his head and looked inside. Through the silver moonlight, he vaguely saw a familiar figure from the back, and a person wearing a bamboo hat. She couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, but the voice should be a woman.

And the person with his back to her seems to be...

"There's someone, I'm leaving first." The woman in the hat saw the woman poking her head outside, and hurried away with a low cry.

Lu Nanzhi hurriedly turned her head back, and when she looked again, the person inside was gone.

Just as she turned around and raised her eyes, she saw a familiar face enlarged in front of her, seeing the pair of deep and misty phoenix eyes made Lu Nanzhi stunned for a few seconds.

"Jin Ran?"

"What are you doing here?" Ye Jinran looked at her suspiciously and asked.

Lu Nanzhi glanced inside and frowned slightly: "Then why are you here?"

"I saw you running out, so I followed you out of fear that something might happen to you. I saw you sneaking around here, so I came here lightly." Ye Jinran replied indifferently.

The corners of Lu Nanzhi's lips curled into a vaguely invisible arc, and his eyes were not as gentle as before, "Oh? Are you sure you will always follow me?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Lu Nanzhi raised the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, I just saw a background that is very similar to yours."

"I……"

"Forget it, it's okay anyway, let's go back." After she finished speaking, she took the lead, followed by Ye Jinran.

The two returned to the Chunfeng Building and found that Jiang Ziqi in the wing room had also disappeared. They asked the shopkeeper and learned that she was taken away by Ruo Linyuan, so they were relieved.

Lu Nanzhi lay on the wall, tilted his head to look inside, and vaguely saw the familiar figure from behind
"It's so late, go back and rest early, so that Brother Shen won't worry about it." Ye Jinran always felt that there was something wrong with Lu Nanzhi's eyes.

I couldn't help thinking secretly: Could it be that she really saw something just now?No, probably not.

Lu Nanzhi withdrew his eyes and smiled slightly, "Go back."

Before parting, she glanced back at Ye Jinran, and asked hesitantly, "Did you really go out with me and follow me all the time?"

Ye Jinran nodded affirmatively.

"Oh!" She responded meaningfully, turned and left.

Seeing her going back, Ye Jinran inexplicably felt very strange.

Back in the mansion, Lu Nanzhi always had that familiar figure in her mind, and she always felt that Ye Jinran had something to hide from her.

But after thinking about it again, who doesn't have a secret, maybe Ye Jinran also has something that she doesn't want to be known, and she quickly put this matter behind her.

In the early morning of the next day, before Lu Nanzhi woke up from a deep sleep, he was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Miss, something happened to Miss!" An anxious voice from Wushuang came from outside.

Lu Nanzhi's eyebrows were full of weariness, and after hearing Wushuang's words, he immediately sat up, rubbed his hazy eyes and asked, "Come in and tell me, what happened?"

Wushuang pushed open the door and walked in, "Miss, the person in Chunfeng Building is dead, the shopkeeper has been arrested, and the shop has been sealed."

"How did this happen?" Lu Nanzhi's eyes widened in astonishment. The Chunfeng Building, which was fine last night, turned into a pile of dead people today. It's too much of a coincidence!
Wushuang shook her head, "I don't know, but when I opened the shop this morning, the shopkeeper of Chunfenglou found the waiter lying in a pool of blood. His face was as pale as paper, and his lips were dry and black. Obviously he died of poisoning."

"Let's go and have a look!" Lu Nanzhi threw off the quilt and got out of bed in a hurry to get dressed, but felt his whole body was sore and limp, he staggered and almost fell down.

Wushuang quickly reached out to support her, and asked worriedly, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired!" Lu Nanzhi waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

Seeing this, Wushuang could only help her freshen up and prepare to go to Chunfeng Tower.

When the two walked to the Chunfeng Building, they saw that the door was full of people, and everyone was talking about the Chunfeng Building.

"You say, who is so cruel that he poisoned the waiter?"

"Who knows, I heard that he was poisoned to death."

"Tsk tsk, it's too vicious!"

"..."

Lu Nanzhi stood on the periphery of the crowd, frowning at the corpse, always feeling that this incident was weird, why did the waiter suddenly die?

She tried to go in but was stopped by soldiers.

"No one should come near this place."

"Miss." Wushuang grabbed her sleeve and shook her head, signaling her not to act impulsively.

Lu Nanzhi shook his head, "Don't worry, I won't be impulsive, I just want to figure things out."

Hearing this, Wushuang hesitated, but finally let go of her hand and pushed her behind.

Lu Nanzhi stayed on the outskirts of the crowd, observing the corpse carefully. The more he looked at it, the more strange he felt. This person obviously didn't have any scars, so why was his whole body turning blue and purple? Even if he was poisoned, why did his skin turn black.

The more Lu Nanzhi thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and when he was about to move closer, suddenly a luxurious carriage came slowly and stopped at the entrance of Chunfeng Tower.

Ji Mingcheng got off the carriage, straightened his clothes and walked into Chunfeng Tower.

Seeing the person coming, Zhou Fu Yin cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Master Ji."

Ji Mingcheng waved his hand and asked, "How is the investigation going?"

"My lord, the investigation is still underway. The deceased is a clerk of this shop. He usually lives in the shop. He didn't have any grudges with anyone. He died of poisoning." Zhou Fuyin said respectfully.

"Poisoned?" Ji Mingcheng squinted his eyes slightly, and after a moment of contemplation, ordered: "Send someone to check all the guests in Chunfenglou to see if there is any suspicion."

"Yes!" Zhou Fuyin ordered people to take all the people from Chunfenglou with them and interrogate them thoroughly.

Ji Mingcheng turned around and noticed Lu Nanzhi standing in the middle of the crowd at a glance, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

Ji Mingcheng withdrew his gaze, squinted his eyes slightly to scan the corpse, and after a moment of contemplation, he ordered: "Catch all the people about Chunfenglou, and don't miss any of them!"

Looking at his gloomy character, Zhou Fuyin sighed secretly, not daring to disobey the order, so he could only order the guards to take them all away.

"Miss, let's go!" Wushuang reminded.

Lu Nanzhi seemed to have never heard of it, and still stared at the corpse, with deep confusion revealed between his brows.

"Miss, this matter is strange, we can't intervene rashly." Wushuang dissuaded, she hoped to get into trouble because of this matter, there are already enough troubles around Miss.

"I know, but I always feel that things are not easy."

"Miss, let's leave here first." Seeing this, Wushuang took her arm, ready to leave.

"Miss Lu, please stay!"

Suddenly a voice called her to stop, Lu Nanzhi stopped and turned to look.
