That was the first time she saw Mr. Xiao, who brought her back to life.
That was also the first time she realized that a man could be as handsome, warm and benevolent as Mr. Xiao.
Qian’er shook her head and didn’t think any longer.
The moment he returned to his study, Lu Fenying asked Red Wolf, “The master of the Su family hasn’t delivered the investigation report yet?”
“It has been sent over; it’s on the table.” Red Wolf went over and picked up a file from a stack on the table. “It was delivered in the morning. You were too busy to read it.”
Lu Fenying instantly opened it. The report outlined in great detail the lives of the two Daoist nuns before they went to the Daoist temple, including their birthplaces, their family members, their time of conversions, and their characters in the Daoist temple.
From the report, they were utterly clean.
The younger Daoist nun, in particular, was from a peasant family, who had sent her to the Daoist temple because they couldn’t feed her.
Attached to the report were detailed statements from their families on their appearances.
Lu Fenying dropped the report and said, “This means nothing. Have the Dark Army look into it.”
He would’ve believed the report before, but there was no way the young Daoist nun could’ve restored the plum blossoms so perfectly.
Red Wolf didn’t dare hesitate, and swiftly gave the instruction.
Pacing back and forth in the room, Lu Fenying asked, “Do you think they added Dragon Spirit Blood to their pills?”
He had thought of countless ways and hired countless experts to treat Su Muwei, but none had been able to treat her.
She had only been well during the years when she had Mo Qian’er’s Dragon Spirit Blood.
Dragon Spirit Blood was the only medicine that had proven useful, until the two Daoist nuns showed up with their pills.
Red Wolf thought for a moment and said, “If you have doubts, we can capture the young Daoist nun and test her blood.”
Frowning, Lu Fenying said, “Go bring her here.”
Red Wolf immediately left with a few men.
Lu Fenying sat down in front of his table. He found that his hands were shaking when he reached for the files on it.
Could it be Mo Qian’er?
If the young Daoist nun had never been here before, how could she know so much about the plum blossoms?
Lu Fenying wanted to get back to work, but he couldn’t read anything. He simply dropped the files and closed his eyes.
No… It couldn’t be her. She didn’t have the guts to come back. She should know what awaited her if she dared to come back after running away.
But he couldn’t be certain. After all, he had never thought that she would have the courage and determination to escape from him.
If Mo Qian’er hadn’t escaped, Muwei wouldn’t be as sick and weak as she was.
He would find out why Mo Qian’er was bold enough to come back.
When Red Wolf entered the western courtyard with his men, Gu Bailu and Qian’er were eating. Red Wolf didn’t say anything, but simply dragged Qian’er out.
Gu Bailu rushed over to stop him. “What do you want?”
“The crown prince wants to see her,” sad Red Wolf coldly.
“Do you have to be so rude about it?” Gu Bailu looked at Red Wolf coldly.
“I have always been this rude. You better get out of the way.” Red Wolf had no respect for Gu Bailu at all.
Not just Gu Bailu; he had no respect for anybody except Lu Fenying.
