The man picked it up and began to appreciate it carefully, "Yes, it is indeed top quality. How much does this pendant cost, Shopkeeper Qiu?"

Shopkeeper Qiu had not yet come to his senses, but when he shouted like this, he immediately came to his senses and said with a smile, "Oh, this! One or two cents of silver."

What!

So expensive!

Chu Wanying tightened her clothes and whispered to the man next to her, "It's so expensive, there's no need for it!"

Last time, that pearl necklace was sold for only one tael for so many pearls, but now you dare to ask for one tael for just two small pearls!

Isn’t this an exorbitant price?

She felt really distressed in her heart!

The man leaned against her side and murmured in his voice. To others, he looked like a loving couple, "It doesn't matter. If you like it, we'll buy it."

The girl shook her head violently, she liked it!

It's just that I was in a hurry and pointed at this thing randomly!

She grabbed the man's arm and left. Before leaving, she didn't forget to tell Shopkeeper Qiu, "Don't forget to match the earrings as a pair! I'll come back in two days!"

After exiting the store and walking to a secluded area, a man's gentle and deep voice came from behind, "Have you checked everything?"

Chu Wanying pulled him to a corner and then stopped. Seeing no one around, she nodded and said, "Yes, I think shopkeeper Qiu must know something! Didn't you see that when I just gave him the earrings, he

How ugly his face is! Tsk, tsk, tsk, there must be something inside of it!"

Her tone was brisk, and she felt really happy in her heart, thinking that this time the truth would finally come to light!

However, the man was not as optimistic as she was. His face did not contain any joy, and he still had his usual calm look.

Xing Sisi and Xing Cuicui were killed, perhaps by accident, but they were buried in his courtyard. It was obviously carefully planned.

The Rong family has never had any enmity with anyone. Except for the eldest brother Rong Lin, who incurred a huge debt from gambling at the beginning of the year, he has never had any enemies with others.

Could it be that he had misunderstood the matter from the beginning?

Didn't this person bury the body in the Rong family to frame him? Instead, he wanted them to discover something to find the real murderer?

The man was lowering his head and thinking about something, when suddenly a pair of white and delicate hands flashed in front of his eyes.

"Rong Zhan, what are you thinking about? Why are you not happy at all?"

The girl opened her big eyes and looked at herself with watery eyes. The sincerity in her eyes could not deceive anyone.

She really cares about him.

Rong Zhan's heart softened, and he unconsciously raised his hand to pinch her face, with a smile on his lips, "Remember, don't act rashly next time."

After all, she is too dangerous as a girl.

Today was just a fluke and nothing serious happened, but what if Shopkeeper Qiu is the murderer?

If this is the case, her rash action just now has already alerted the enemy, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Chu Wanying slapped his big hand away, rubbed the red cheeks pinched by him, stared at him and said, "Humph! How could I be so stupid! If there was danger, I would have run away long ago, okay?"

"But having said that, Shopkeeper Qiu just mentioned that he has a young son. I wonder if it has something to do with this matter. How about we go to his house later and find out what he has to say?"

Rong Zhan looked at her, "Why bother looking for his son?"

"How do you say this?" Chu Wanying was puzzled.

Then the man took the lead and walked forward, tilting his neck back slightly and raising his eyebrows, "Follow!"

When she arrived at the entrance of the gambling house, Chu Wanying finally realized.

Sidestepping away from a gambler who had just been thrown out, the girl frowned and looked at the calm man next to her, "How did you know he was here?"

Shopkeeper Qiu has three sons. The eldest son is away from home all year round and is busy with business and rarely comes home. The second son is frail and sick and has been recuperating at home and rarely leaves the house.

Only this younger son, named Qiu Zhen, was idle and did not do his job. He spent his days either in Fireworks Alley or in this gambling house where he spent a lot of money.

Rong Zhan had dealt with him several times in his previous life, so he naturally knew his situation.

"The reputation of the third young master of the Qiu family is astonishing. How could I not know this little thing?" After saying that, the man walked straight inside.

Before he left, he told her not to follow him.

Needless to say, she knew that this kind of place was not suitable for little girls because of the mixed crowd.

He hid aside, leaned against the stone lion, and began to count how many people would be thrown out out of boredom.

At the tenth count, the man finally came out, dragging a thin, pale young man in his hand. The latter staggered, his expression revealing unwillingness, obviously due to the former's intimidation, he had no choice but to do so.

came out.

This person must be Qiu Zhen, the young son of Shopkeeper Qiu who is unlearned and dissolute.

When Qiu Zhen saw the girl, his eyes widened suddenly, like a hungry wolf seeing meat, and his eyes glowed green.

"Little beauty, where are you from? Why have I never seen you before?"

There is no way he wouldn't know that there are such beauties in the surrounding villages!

Chu Wanying ignored his words and didn't even give him a glance. She only said to Rong Zhan who was standing on one side, "What's wrong with your face?"

When I got closer, I discovered that there was a scratch on the man's cheek. It wasn't very serious, but because his face was so fair, it could be seen at a glance.

"No problem." The man glanced at Qiu Zhen lightly, and his eyes darkened when he saw his palm.

"Where's your wrench?"

Finger snap?

When Chu Wanying heard this, she immediately turned around, and finally took a look at him. She saw that the man's face was pale, his eyes were black, and his whole face had a dead look, which was obviously caused by excessive sexual indulgence.

Qiu Zhen felt happy when he saw that the girl was finally willing to look at him. He opened his mouth to show his yellow teeth and said with a smile, "Little beauty, you haven't come back to me yet? Where do you live? Are you a local?"

The three of them stood together, each talking about his own thing. Chu Wanying's pretty face darkened.

This man's gaze is too obscene.

Rong Zhan stood in front of her, blocking her malicious sight. There was a coldness in his brows, and he said in a cold voice, "If you don't tell the truth, I don't mind throwing you back again."

Upon hearing this, the wretched man trembled and hurriedly waved his hands, "No, no, no, no, brother, please tell me what you have to say."

He had just been caught cheating in a scam, and if Rong Zhan hadn't rescued him in time, his life would have been lost long ago.

Beauty is important, but life is more important!

"Brother, what did you ask just now? I didn't hear it. Can you say it again?"

"Where's the ring on your right thumb?"

"What are you talking about? Where else can I go? I just lost my money in gambling! I was so unlucky that day that I lost all my silver in gambling for a whole day. In the end, I really had no other choice, so I put my finger on it."

"Are you serious? When did you mortgage your finger?" Chu Wanying quietly poked her head out from behind the man and asked.
