The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the Murong family is quiet.
"Tiange, who do you think will be the murderer of my adoptive father and younger brother? Could it be the great elder?"
Wearing a white silk nightgown with a pair of bare feet, Murong Ruoshui was curled up like a kitten on the Taishi's chair by the window. She was so upset that she couldn't sleep at night.
"No, the murderer can never be Murong Su!" Gu Tiange shook his head and said.
"If it's not the Great Elder, then who could it be?"
Murong Ruoshui looked at Gu Tiange silently and asked softly.
"Ruoshui, don't think too much, have a good sleep, leave everything to me, I promise to help you find the real murderer and avenge your adoptive father!"
Although Gu Tiange had a suspect in his mind, he did not tell Murong Ruoshui and planned to observe it secretly before taking action.
"Tiange, I'm so upset, can I, can I sleep with you in my arms?"
Two intoxicating blushes suddenly appeared on Murong Ruoshui's delicate cheeks. She looked at Gu Tiange with watery eyes and murmured.
"Okay, I'll sleep with you!"
Gu Tiange wanted to refuse, but when he touched Murong Ruo's eyes and her shy demeanor, Gu Tiange suddenly had a double image in his eyes, with a flickering look. He couldn't bear to refuse, and came to the soft place with her.
On the wooden bed, he gently hugged her soft body and accompanied her to sleep.
Murong Jingyun's death made the atmosphere in the Murong family even more depressing. With Murong Su's permission, Gu Tiange kept going in and out of Murong Duo and Murong Jingyun's rooms, looking for clues.
Suddenly one day, a sweet-looking woman wearing a pink silk dress came to the precarious Murong family to look for Murong Ruoshui.
"Yan'er, why are you here?"
Looking at the woman wearing a pink dress, Murong Ruoshui recognized at a glance that she was Qin Yan'er, the daughter of the Qin family, but there was not much friendship between them.
"I heard from my father that my sister has been back for a while, and I came here to play with her!" Qin Yan'er affectionately took Murong Ruoshui's arm and said, "By the way, sister Ruoshui, my father wants to treat you to dinner tonight. I wonder if you have time.
?”
"this……"
Although the relationship between the Murong family and the Qin family has always been good, the Murong family was in troubled times, so Murong Ruoshui had to be cautious and cast an inquiring look at Gu Tiange.
"If you want to go, I'll go with you!"
Gu Tiange showed a smile that made Murong Ruoshui feel at ease and said softly.
"Sister Ruoshui, this is my brother-in-law!"
Looking at Gu Tiange, who had a handsome face but was not at a high level, Qin Yaner's eyes lit up and she said with a smile.
"No, not yet!"
Murong Ruoshui said with a slightly red cheek.
"It's not now, it won't be in the future!" Qin Yan'er said pleasantly: "Sister Ruoshui, brother-in-law, I will wait for you at Qin's house tonight, you must come."
"Don't worry, we will definitely go!" Gu Tiange nodded.
"Hehe, I'll have a few drinks with my sister and brother-in-law tonight!"
Qin Yan'er chatted with Murong Ruoshui for a while and then left.
"The Qin family...Why did the Qin family suddenly entertain Ruoshui at this time?"
Looking at Qin Yan'er leaving, Murong Su frowned and sensed a hint of suspicion.
"Great Elder, I wonder if Luo Hu is still in the mansion?" Gu Tiange suddenly asked.
"Luo Chongfeng..." Murong Su said with a startled expression: "It seemed like someone told me this morning that Luo Chongfong went out."
"Out!"
Gu Tiange murmured meaningfully.
"Master Gu, do you doubt Luo Chongfong?"
Murong Su asked after catching a cold light bursting out of Gu Tiange's eyes.
"I think we might find out who the real murderer is tonight!"
Although Qin Yan'er seemed to have a good relationship with Murong Ruoshui, Gu Tiange found a murderous intent and unconcealable jealousy in her eyes.
"Master Gu, why don't I accompany you to Qin's house?"
Although Murong Su didn't like Gu Tiange, let alone Murong Ruoshui, the Murong family was in a troubled time and no more accidents could happen.
Especially Gu Tiange, once something happened to him, Murong Su couldn't imagine how furious the forces behind him would be.
"No, just Ruoshui and I will go!" Gu Tiange shook his head and declined politely: "You guys can wait for the news."
As the sun sets and night falls, the bustling capital of Murong is gradually shrouded in darkness, with only the crescent moon hanging high in the sky reflecting a faint light.
"Sister Ruoshui, you are finally here!"
In the dark night, Gu Tiange and his wife arrived at the brightly lit Qin family's house. Qin Yan'er, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted them and invited them into the Qin family's house.
"Banned!"
Entering the Qin Family Mansion, Gu Tiange's keen perception immediately noticed the terrifying restrictions hidden in the Qin Family Mansion, confirming his suspicion that today's dinner was not simple.
"Dad, Sister Ruoshui and the others are here!"
Walking into the luxuriously decorated hall of Qin's mansion, Qin Yan'er immediately shouted.
"Ruoshui, I haven't seen you for several years and you have become even more beautiful. You must be the most beautiful woman in Murong Capital!"
Looking at Murong Ruoshui, who was wearing a long turquoise silk dress, with an elegant temperament, like an ice lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, and extremely beautiful, Qin Hanyi, the head of the Qin family, praised her repeatedly.
"Uncle Qin is so complimentary." Murong Ruoshui said with a gentle smile.
"By the way Ruoshui, this is..."
Qin Hanyi looked at Gu Tiange, who was standing next to Gu Tiange with an indifferent expression, and asked softly.
"This is my brother-in-law, sister Murong's fiancé!" Qin Yan'er said from the sidelines.
"Your Excellency, you are so lucky. Murong Ducheng wants to marry Ruoshui, a handsome young man. I'm afraid he will be queued outside the city gate." Qin Hanyi took a deep look at Gu Tiange and said with a smile: "Now many people's hearts will be broken.
"
"Come on, the dinner is ready, let's go over!"
With that said, Qin Hanyi led them to the dining room with crystal chandeliers hanging down and mouth-watering delicacies on display.
"Ruoshui, on the day of your adoptive father's funeral, I happened to be out in Murong's capital on business and was unable to see him off on his last journey. I hope you don't blame Uncle Qin!"
After taking his seat, Qin Hanyi said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter!" Murong Ruoshui shook his head and said quietly.
"Come here, you can try the wine I brewed. Most people can't drink it."
Qin Hanyi personally poured two glasses of wine for Gu Tiange and Murong Ruoshui, and said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll try it!" Gu Tiange picked up the wine that Qin Hanyi had poured, and while tasting it, he commented: "The wine is good, but it has a fly in the ointment. It's poisonous."
"Your Excellency, what do you mean by this..." Qin Hanyi's pupils shrank and he whispered: "My Qin family seems to have never offended you, why are you slandering us?"
"I never slander anyone!" Gu Tiange shook his head and said: "Master Qin, our time is limited, so don't waste time and let the person behind you come out."
"you!"
Gu Tiange's words made Qin Hanyi's eye muscles twitch wildly, and his eyes when looking at Gu Tiange changed subtly.
"Tai Shi Haoran, since you are here, come out!" Gu Tiange looked at the back hall and said.
"Gu Tiange, I underestimated you, but I didn't expect you to find me!"
A cold voice sounded in the back hall of the Qin family. Taishi Haoran, wearing a white robe and a soaring crown, with a sinister look in his eyes, appeared with a group of Taishi family masters.
"Not only do I know you are here, I also know that the real murderer is also here!" Gu Tiange said slowly: "Luo Hu, come out!"
