After all, it's been a long time, and this person wasn't an important figure, so a lot of information about them is unavailable.

What she is now certain of is that there was an error in the information.

Meeting Lu Chengzhou's gaze, she continued slowly:

"The room where Lu Chengzhou lived used to be the archives room."

"That thief went in looking for something, probably Shao Han's old resume."

"However, because the archives had already moved, he was unable to achieve his goal."

"This morning, the officer handling the case told me that the thief had already gone home."

"After he was released, he didn't rush to pick up his father. Instead, he went straight home and hasn't left the house since. Isn't that a bit strange?"

"After all, he had previously acted as a very filial son."

"She has been taking care of her bedridden father for more than ten years without complaint. How many people can do that?"

As Meng Wanyu finished speaking, she suddenly handed Lu Chengzhou a piece of undercooked beef.

Then, he licked the corner of his mouth in an ambiguous manner.

"Teacher Lu, I think the answer lies in the Shao family's house. How about we..."

"That place is haunted!"

Before she could finish her suggestion, the former owner of the estate quickly interrupted her.

"That place is truly haunted; it's said that you can hear the wails of hell at night..."

The wailing of hell?

Hearing these childish adjectives, Lu Chengzhou almost laughed.

Meng Wanyu glared at him and said coldly, "I wasn't planning on taking you with me. What's your name?"

That sharp gaze made the former manor owner choke for a moment.

"Cough cough cough..."

Meng Wanyu did not continue looking at him.

She shifted her position and sat down next to Lu Chengzhou, taking his hand under the table.

She leaned mostly against him, her body tilting slightly.

"Haunted house adventures should be really interesting, right, Professor Lu?"

Looking at this serpentine beauty, even the former manor lord blushed with embarrassment.

Lu Chengzhou, on the other hand, remained calm and composed.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

We've almost finished our meal.

Lu Chengzhou quickly tidied himself up, put on his clothes, and followed Meng Wanyu out the door.

Meng Wanyu naturally wouldn't allow anyone to follow her on such a wonderful opportunity to be alone.

Moreover, seemingly to deliberately leave a deep impression on Lu Chengzhou, she changed into a red dress and put on a seductive makeup.

As he stepped outside, Lu Chengzhou looked up at the sky and sighed.

To be honest, he felt that Meng Wanyu was more terrifying than the "ghosts" in the haunted house at this moment.

Her aura is absolutely enchanting.

She's a demon with profound cultivation!

396. The Ultimate Yandere, and Twisted Love

The Shao family's small villa was completely dark at this moment.

Walking into this gloomy street, even someone as brave as Lu Chengzhou felt his hair stand on end.

In the distance, the faint cooing of an owl can be heard.

The wind rustled the willows along the riverbank.

It wasn't even that late, yet all the lights around here had already gone out.

There wasn't a single moving thing on the street.

To Lu Chengzhou's surprise, Meng Wanyu didn't seem scared at all.

She could even look around and snap a photo.

Was she really this bold before?

Lu Chengzhou was somewhat bewildered.

"Okay, that's all for today's WeChat Moments."

Meng Wanyu stroked her phone case, looked up, and gazed at the small Western-style building that exuded an ominous aura.

"Hey, I have a feeling this place is going to be really lively tonight."

As she spoke, she gave a sinister smile.

Lu Chengzhou was frustrated.

He truly felt that Meng Wanyu was scarier than a ghost.

The door was not locked, and they could simply push it open and enter.

The room was still filled with the same herbal scent as before.

However, this time, the smell was much milder.

"Hmm, besides the smell of herbs, there's also a smell of Western medicine..."

"The smell of Western medicine?!"

Lu Chengzhou was somewhat surprised.

This stuff, under normal circumstances, doesn't have much of a smell, right?

However, considering that Miss Meng's sense of smell has always been better than that of ordinary people, Lu Chengzhou would not suspect her.

The door was closed, and the room was plunged into complete darkness.

Meng Wanyu tried turning on the light, but it didn't help.

"It's probably a power outage."

As she said this, she took out the flashlight she had prepared beforehand and turned it on.

"Ah, it really has the atmosphere of a haunted house."

Seeing her increasingly excited expression, Lu Chengzhou sighed inwardly.

He felt that it was best if there were no real ghosts in the house, otherwise he would probably be terrified by Miss Meng.

After a quick search of the first floor, nothing of value was found.

So, we prepared to go to the second floor.

The wooden staircase was narrow and rotten, creaking and groaning.

There are many traces left by time on the walls.

Several embroidery pieces even developed mold.

"oops!"

Meng Wanyu suddenly cried out.

Lu Chengzhou felt a surge of nervousness and instinctively supported her waist.

"Teacher Lu, do you care about her a lot?"

Meng Wanyu then clung to him, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed the corner of his mouth.

"This is a reward for you."

Lu Chengzhou: "..."

It's hardened; its fists have hardened.

She didn't actually fall; it was just a prank, a way to test his reaction.

That's really going too far.

But he couldn't just abandon her, so he could only let her cling to him like an octopus.

Soon, the two arrived on the second floor.

There are about five rooms on the second floor, most of which are locked.

The only room that wasn't locked looked like Mr. Shao's room.

On the desk, they saw a group photo.

The photo shows three people: Grandpa Shao, the thief, and a short, handsome young man.

"This must be Shao Han, right?"

Meng Wanyu carefully examined the short man.

"She exudes the aura of a submissive character from head to toe."

This comment left Lu Chengzhou somewhat annoyed.

"I didn't expect Miss Meng to judge people by their appearance," he said casually.

“Hehe, nobody’s perfect.” Meng Wanyu solemnly put down the group photo and dusted it off. “However, his temperament is indeed quite special. He would probably look better in women’s clothing than in men’s clothing.”

This short man had a completely feminine face and a delicate demeanor, looking as if he would collapse if blown by the wind.

This photo is almost identical to the one on the resume he submitted to the winery.

"Shao Han left school before finishing high school."

"Later, I became a caregiver."
