commoner pretty detective

Chapter 157 Take off the mask
Xuan'er smiled lightly: "Miss, you are flattering Xuan'er too much. Xuan'er is indeed just a little girl in Guiyun Villa, the most ordinary one. Everyone in our villa was lucky enough to be rescued by the owner when their lives were hanging by a thread. And because of various reasons, they are all homeless. Therefore, everyone remembers the kindness of the owner, does their best, and loyally guards Guiyun Villa for the owner."

It turns out that Xuan'er's previous family background must be extraordinary.Wu Yan asked again: "Your owner seldom stays in the villa, does he?"

"Well, the owner's whereabouts are uncertain, and he often travels outside."

While talking, she came to a round moon gate, Xuan'er stopped her steps, stood aside, and said: "Miss, slaves and maidservants are not allowed to enter here. The owner of the villa is inside, miss, you will see it when you go in."

Wu Yan took a closer look, and saw that there was a low wall in front of her, pink walls and blue tiles, inside the wall there were lush trees, it looked like there should be a garden inside the door.Seeing Xuan'er standing respectfully by the side of the road, she didn't even dare to glance at the door, knowing that this door is another forbidden place.

The door was ajar, Wu Yan didn't say anything more, she stepped forward and gently opened the door.Inside the gate is indeed a garden, not to mention mountains, stone pavilions and pavilions, there are more martial arts training facilities than ordinary gardens, it turns out that this is the place where Nangong Changtian practiced kung fu.

Walking along the path paved with gravel, and turning a corner, it suddenly became clear that the end of the path turned out to be a huge natural lake.The water surface is as smooth as a mirror, and the water and the sky are the same color. Occasionally, a few water birds pass by the lake, causing ripples in circles.

Nangong Changtian, dressed in black, stood by the lake with his hands behind his back, with his back to Wu Yan, without a cloak.Wu Yan walked slowly behind him and said softly, "Now can you take off the mask?"

"It has already been taken off." Nangong Changtian also replied softly, he did not use ventriloquist.The lakeside was extremely quiet, even the wind was quiet, the two unconsciously lowered their voices, as if they were afraid of disturbing something.

Nangong Changtian turned around slowly and looked at Wu Yan with a smile.I don't know if it's because the sun is too dazzling today, or because of some other reason, Wu Yan feels dizzy before her eyes.She remembered the night when she first met him, the moonlight shone on his face, but she suddenly felt that the whole world was lit up.

"Actually, your surname has already told others who you are," Wu Yan walked up to him, looked at the boundless lake, and sighed softly, "Prince Dingnan Gong Ziling."

"Autumn Water Changtian Ren Xiaoyao." Nangong Changtian, also known as Gong Ziling, continued.

The two smiled at each other.

Gong Ziling spread out the letter paper in her hand, on which a picture was drawn.In the painting, a wolf stares viciously at a girl in front of him, ready to pounce, while on the branch above the girl's head, a young man draws an arrow with a bow, aiming at the wolf's throat.That was a little secret between him and Wu Yan.

"How did you guess it was mine?" Gong Ziling couldn't help but admire Wu Yan.

"It's all thanks to your sachet." Wu Yan glared at Gong Ziling, "Originally you wanted to follow me through it, hehe, but who knew that you exposed your own whereabouts instead."
