Chapter 340: Acting within a play, pretending to be a play, and doing it for real 8
When old man Xue saw Qing Ning, he was squandering money in the casino closest to the west city gate. He was probably lucky. The goatee on his lips was trembling and he was smiling like a lotus flower in full bloom.
Qing Ning went back to the palace, changed into men's clothes and ran out. She would not dare to run around alone in the next three days, and she would only be safe for one afternoon. She wanted to see if she could learn something more from him.
Old Man Xue didn't look back. Just as he was about to grab the poison, his hand suddenly froze in mid-air.
He didn't recognize Qing Ning based on his appearance at all. He only needed to know who it was by his eyelids twitching wildly.
He only had such an instinctive reaction towards her. He was once so puzzled that he even asked a fortune teller if he had done something wrong to someone in his previous life, so that he would be unreasonably afraid of Miss Yue's family in this life.
Qing Ning just took a look at the entrance of the gambling shop, and then ran as fast as possible to the back alley to wait for her. She knew Old Man Xue's escape route very well, and there was no new trick every time.

"When did you come back? Are you dying?" Old Man Xue asked.
"Rely on me to make money, you are good at it!" Qing Ning rolled her eyes at him.
He laughed sarcastically. Everyone knew his rules, and he wasn't worried that she was here to get money for the wedding. "What do you want to know?"
"This woman" Qing Ning gave him the prepared portrait. He looked at it and said, "Didn't Jia Qi come to me? I couldn't find out anything. I guess everyone who knows the details is either dead or she is too ordinary and there is no one."
Know"
"She asked Hua Ruolian to give you some clues. She still has a day. The girl I asked you to keep an eye on for me a few years ago is the one named Doudou. Is there any news about her?"
Old Man Xue stretched out his hand in front of her
