Chapter 263: Murder Case at Lotus Flower House
Fu Sisi’s eyes lit up when she heard him call ‘Brother Yun’.
Without even greeting Chu Sihan, her cousin, she ran towards Yun Ting.
“Yun Ting, Yun Ting, you’re back?”
Yun Ting’s face darkened.
Shi Yi, that bastard. He had tried his best to hide in the crowd, but in the end, he betrayed him with just one sentence.
Shi Yi was elated when he saw this. He hurried forward to greet Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng.
Bing Ji snorted coldly and sat back on the sedan chair before leaving.
When the men who were chasing after the sedan chair saw this, they ran after her.
Shi Yi sneered. “This Bing Ji is so high-profile every time she goes out.”
After Bing Ji left, the crowd dispersed. Lu Sheng felt that the air was finally fresher.
“Do you men… like this?” Lu Sheng asked Shi Yi.
“How is that possible?”
Shi Yi said with a disdainful expression, “Her supporters only like her sense of mystery. If they had seen her in person, they probably wouldn’t be so crazy.”
“Why?” Lu Sheng did not understand. “Isn’t she beautiful?”
Shi Yi smiled and said, “She’s beautiful, but without makeup, she’s not even half as beautiful as Miss Lu.”
Lu Sheng waved her hand. “Stop praising me. I’m embarrassed.”
Shi Yi’s smile froze. He looked at Chu Sihan and asked, “Where’s this accent from?”
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows. He had never heard this accent before.
However, the young lady knew a lot of accents. For example, when she was speaking to her family in Huang Yang Town, she used the accent from Huang Yang Town. However, when she was speaking to him, she used the accent from the capital.
She suddenly spoke with an unfamiliar accent. It was normal for him to not have heard of this before.
“You must be Lu Sheng?”
Fu Sisi followed Yun Ting over and looked at Lu Sheng with a smile. “I heard Grandmother mention your name before. I’m Fu Sisi, Lord Chu’s cousin.”
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Hello, Miss Sisi!”
The more Fu Sisi looked at Lu Sheng, the more curious she became.
When she heard Fu Yiyi call her a countryside girl previously, she thought that Lu Sheng must be a countryside girl who had not seen the world and was cowardly.
However, the girl in front of her was exceptionally beautiful. She smiled and looked neither servile nor overbearing. She was very generous.
She was even more imposing than her, a lady from an aristocratic family.
The pretentious Fu Yiyi could not compare to such a girl. The Shangguan Linger that her aunt had chosen was also not half as good as her.
No wonder her cousin would rather choose Lu Sheng than the women her mother and aunt fancied.
“Let’s find a teahouse to sit down?”
Shi Yi raised his eyebrows and suggested.
Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan nodded.
Yun Ting initially wanted to make an excuse and leave. However, Fu Sisi held his arm and he could not tear it away. In the end, he could only sigh and follow the crowd to the teahouse helplessly.
As soon as they entered, they saw the guests in the teahouse whispering to each other with grave expressions. Upon closer inspection, they seemed to have heard words like ‘tragic death’ and ‘pitiful’.
Shi Yi was the timidest, but he was very curious.
After taking his seat, he turned around and asked the people at the next table, “Brother, what are you discussing about?”
“The murder case at Lotus Flower House!”
The man lowered his voice and said, “Last night, the lady boss of Lotus Flower House died. She was bitten to death by her husband. The blood flowed all over the ground. It’s scary.”
Lotus Flower House was a restaurant. The lady boss was skilled and the food she made was delicious. Everyone liked to eat there.
As a food lover, Shi Yi had naturally been there before.
When he heard this, he could not help but feel regretful.
When Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan heard this, they looked at each other and frowned.
