Chapter 645 Lotus Building CP Li Lianhua
Cheng Yunhe looked embarrassed and offered a somewhat guilty explanation:
"This is a death row inmate from the government office. His family was very anxious and wanted to keep his body intact, so they spent a lot of money to have a funeral service performed. That's why they asked me to take him back. He'll be fine."
"What's the use? Look, what was bound to happen has happened."
Wang Dong's thin body trembled. What should he do?
The guard closed the lid of the head box, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a pool of red liquid under the cargo box next to him. He then broke the wax seal with another slash.
"Second...Second Miss!"
Hearing the noise downstairs, Yun Jiao pushed through the crowd and went inside. Seeing Yu Qiushuang dead in the cargo box, she instantly lost her mind, her brain went blank, and she fainted against the cargo box.
Li Lianhua, who was following behind, led the curious Buwei, while Fang Duobing followed closely behind.
Hua Xiaozhou wasn't that curious; she walked behind at a leisurely pace.
Before I even saw what was happening inside, I heard:
"Take them all back to Jade City!"
Hua Xiaozhou paused, "What?"
Is this also Li Lianhua's way of letting things take their natural course?
A prisoner?
The people inside were kicked out.
Hua Xiaozhou recognized the familiar face at a glance.
"Ruiying?"
The masked woman who had been ignoring Cheng Yunhe's glances just now reached out and lifted her bamboo hat, pulling down her veil to reveal a light-colored scar at the corner of her left eye. Unlike most women's gentle features, she had striking, heroic features. She was none other than her good friend Liu Ruiying, whom she hadn't seen for two years.
She has perfectly almond-shaped eyes, which are now curved in a smile.
"Xiao Zhou, it's me."
Hua Xiaozhou ignored Li Lianhua and Buwei, who were watching her, and walked into the escort area of the Yucheng guards, coming to Liu Ruiying's side.
"Why are you here?"
The two men were all laughing heartily at their long-awaited reunion, showing none of the sorrow on the faces of their fellow prisoners beside them.
"I was entrusted to supervise the caravan, but who knew that the head of the caravan was smuggling human heads. That was bad enough, but who would have thought that the body of the missing Miss Yu Er would be found in the caravan's box? That's why I was caught."
"So unlucky?"
"Yes, that's right. I still need to find a way to send a message to my employer in the capital and tell her to come and get me as soon as possible!"
“Then we really need to hurry. If we don’t have enough time, we might as well just run away. I don’t think Jade City is a place where reason prevails.”
Liu Ruiying agreed with this statement.
"I think so too..."
"Shut up!"
Liu Ruiying didn't say anything more, but winked at Hua Xiaozhou, signaling her to look at the corpse that had been moved out of the cargo box.
Hua Xiaozhou followed the gaze, her pupils dilated slightly, and her eyebrows raised gently. She immediately calmed herself down, pretended nothing was wrong, and left with the crowd.
The guards lost Miss Yu Er and failed to protect her properly, resulting in her death. Madam Yu is ruthless and will certainly not let them off easily. I was already upset and scared, and these two are now reminiscing about the past. They even dare to say that Yu Cheng is unreasonable. Don't they know that?
At dawn
Tamaki
Everyone at Xiaomian Inn was locked in a spacious cell.
Compared to the reluctance of others, he seemed quite at ease. It was his first time entering a prison cell. He wasn't afraid, only curious, and he tugged at Li Lianhua's sleeve to look around.
On the way there, Hua Xiaozhou held Li Lianhua's hand and coaxed him for a while before he forgave her, promising to go to his side first next time.
With everything settled in, Hua Xiaozhou felt relieved and reunited with Liu Ruiying. The two stood in the corner of the cell, heads together, whispering to each other, their words unreadable.
Front Hall of the City Lord's Mansion
After examining the corpse, City Lord Yu Mulan was filled with rage. He ordered his guards to keep a close watch on everyone at Xiaomian Inn until Yu Hongzhu returned and dealt with them.
Yun Jiao sat beside the corpse, hugging her legs, her eyes glazed over, showing no reaction whatsoever.
