Unable to discern Wei Ruo's true intentions, Zhong Niangyao did not ask any questions, and left directly after bidding farewell.
Lu Yichen was still handling affairs, so she didn't plan to return so quickly. Therefore, she slowly made her way back.
It was halfway there that she suddenly saw a shadow flash by. A glimmer of perplexity crossed her eyes as she immediately followed it.
Chasing the shadow, Zhong Niangyao arrived at a secluded place. She quickly stepped forward and grabbed the shadow. However, just as her hand touched the shadow, it vanished like dust, dissipating into thin air.
At the same time, she saw a figure lying on the ground not far away, which seemed to be no longer moving.
Ordinary people would have hurried away from such a scene. Otherwise, if someone were to see them later, they would be unable to clear their name even if they jumped into the Yellow River.
