She took out the poison needle from the space, held it between her fingertips, then quickly turned around and shot out the poison needle.

The dark shadow was carrying something in his hand at this moment. When he saw a sharp edge coming towards him, he quickly turned over to avoid it, and the thing in his hand fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

The poison needles in Lin Shuning's hand kept flying out, and seeing that the men dodged them one by one, he thought to himself that something was wrong.

This little thief who stole things turned out to be skilled in martial arts.

Since the poison needle is useless, don't blame her for using poison smoke. She is so bold as to steal something from her aunt.

The man in black was slightly startled and waved his hands, as if he wanted to say something.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Lian'er's inquiring voice sounded: "Miss, are you okay? Why did I hear some noise in your room, so I came in?"

The black-clothed man's eyes changed and he instantly dodged and hid under the bed.

Lin Shuning held the poison gas bomb in his hand and said, "It's okay. I'll close the window when I see it's raining. You can go back and continue sleeping."

"Miss, if you have anything, please call me anytime."

Hearing Lian'er's footsteps slowly leaving, Lin Shuning threw the poison gas bomb in his hand to the ground without hesitation, and a purple smoke rose in the house instantly.

"Cough... cough!" A few coughs were heard in the silent house.

A figure suddenly emerged from under the bed and ran towards the window at an extremely fast speed.

Lin Shuning had already guessed that he would escape through the window, and he quickly grabbed his collar.

There was only a "swish" sound.

She actually tore most of the man's clothes off, revealing his abdominal muscles.

The nearly perfect waist and abdomen line instantly caught Lin Shuning's eyes. She was originally saying "Where can the little thief run away" and her other hand that was about to grab him didn't stop for a moment, and she accidentally touched him. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Tsk, not bad."

The man's ears turned red. He waved her arm away, jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the thick night.

Lin Shuning stood there feeling lost, looking at her fingertips. The feeling of touch just now had not disappeared yet. She felt vaguely that she seemed to have seen this scene somewhere before.

"Tsk, I wasted such good poison smoke. He actually escaped. I don't know what he stole." Lin Shuning, who had long been immune to the poison smoke, fanned away the poison smoke with his hands, walked to the dressing table, checked it carefully, and found that all the pearl hairpins and jewelry on it were intact.

She was a little confused, and with a glance, she saw a box suddenly appeared next to her.

Lin Shuning frowned slightly, reached out to open it, and his eyes lit up instantly.

It was filled with jewels and jades, which looked similar to what Prince Rui wanted to give her a few days ago.

A thought suddenly emerged in Lin Shuning's mind. Could it be that there was a burglary in the residence of His Royal Highness Prince Rui?

The thief was still not satisfied and wanted to come to the Shangshu Mansion to make some money, but he was accidentally caught by her. In his panic, he left all the stolen treasures here?

Lin Shuning's lips curled up into a delighted smile. Since those were the things stolen by the thief, it shouldn't be too much for her to take them, right?

"Xiaobai, I'll upgrade all the jewels in this box for you. Otherwise, if you take them to the pawn shop to exchange for money, it will cause quite a stir." Lin Shuning said after pondering for a moment.

“Wow! Thank God, thank the earth, and thank the great host Lin Shuning!”

Xiaobai, who didn't expect to get upgrades one after another within one day, was so happy that he twisted his body and started dancing immediately, while singing the BGM in a very cooperative manner.

"The rivers and lakes are full of waves, and the world is forgotten. It is all in the past, so there is no need to talk about it~~"

"The sky smiles, but it never gets old, and its passion never ends~ I drink to the moon, a cup of solitude~~~"

He crossed his hands and rolled them: "Swords arose in the rivers and lakes, sleeves were waved to cover the bright moon, the west wind fell leaves and flowers withered, and I couldn't sleep with the sword as my pillow~"

Then he opened his hands and began to wave his flower hands: "You are a passer-by in the mountains and rivers, but you always sigh sadly about parting~ Your hair is like frost, a cup of strong wine~~"

……

Seeing him twisting around like a jellyfish, and then dancing to Subject 3 in slow motion, Lin Shuning held his head and said with disgust: "Stop, stop, and get down to business first."

"...A cup of solitude~~~Then I won't be polite~" Xiaobai stopped twisting, fell on the box, and quickly devoured it.

He floated back and forth contentedly and said, "Host, I have upgraded again. This time I can possess an animal for three hours."

"You've enjoyed yourself today, as you've been promoted twice." Lin Shuning sighed twice, checked the space, and found that there was an extra page of prescription for pregnancy-preserving pills called Ningshuang Jixue Dan in the medical book. Lin Shuning seemed to be thinking about something, and fell asleep on the bed.

On the other side, after the man in black left the Shangshu Mansion, he tore off the mask covering his face and gasped heavily.

Jiang Yu's face turned pale. He didn't inhale much poisonous gas, so it was not a big deal. But his brows were quietly furrowed, and a strange feeling surged in his heart. That woman, could anyone touch her?

"My Lord, did you succeed?" Chen Zhao flew over, took a closer look, and almost fell off the eaves of the house when he slipped. "This, was this torn by the Third Miss?"

"Yeah." Jiang Yu responded lightly and flew away.

Although it was just a brief glance, years of service and companionship allowed Chen Zhao to see Jiang Yu's mood at a glance.

The corners of his lips were slightly pursed, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

"This Third Miss is really good at fighting," Chen Zhao muttered, "She tore the Master's clothes to pieces, no wonder the Master is unhappy. But seeing that the Master didn't bring his suitcase, it must mean success, right? If the Third Miss knew that this was a gift from the Master, I wonder how touched she would be. His Royal Highness Prince Rong's idea is really good."

Jiang Che, who was sleeping soundly at home, sneezed violently. He rubbed his nose, hugged the pillow that he treated as a precious antique jade in his dream, and fell asleep again.

……

The next day.

Lin Shuning was woken up by Lian'er: "Miss, Butler Liu just came to tell you that Madam Yun from the General's Mansion invited you to visit the mansion. The master asked you to pack up and go there quickly. Do you want me to refuse for you?"

Lin Shuning turned over and sat up: "No, you come and help me dress up, just keep it simple, the sooner the better."

According to her original plan, she was going to visit the General's Mansion today to help Madam Yun check her health, but she didn't expect that Madam Yun would get there before her.

While Lian'er was dressing her up, Lin Shuning used the remaining silver in the space to refine a Frost and Snow Pill.

After finishing her makeup and refining the elixir, Lin Shuning walked towards the door with Lian'er and saw Lin Cheng and Yun Sheng in front of her.

When Lin Cheng saw her, he forced a smile on his stiff face: "Ning'er, Master Yun invites you to be his guest today, so you must remember the etiquette and never do anything out of line."

Lin Shuning glanced at him calmly and didn't say anything.

The atmosphere was tense for a moment.

Yun Sheng said to help: "Don't worry, Shangshu-sama. We in the General's Mansion don't care about those etiquettes. Besides, the Third Miss is kind-hearted and elegant, so there is no need to worry."

Lin Cheng laughed awkwardly a few times.

Yun Sheng looked at Lin Shuning again and said, "Miss San, my wife is not feeling well, so I am the one who is inviting you. Please forgive me."

Lin Shuning shook his head: "Let's go."

"Your Excellency, we will take our leave now." Yun Sheng bowed.

Lin Cheng returned the gift and watched Lin Shuning get on the carriage with Yun Sheng. His expression was gloomy. He turned around and ordered, "Prepare the carriage for me. It's time to finalize the marriage between Rou'er and Zhou Yuan."

……

The Shangshu Mansion is not far from the General's Mansion and can be reached in half an hour.

Lin Shuning got off the carriage with the help of Lian'er, raised his eyes to look at the magnificent mansion in front of him, and a stirring feeling arose in his heart.

This general's mansion is different from the minister's mansion. It does not have those elegant rockery and springs, or winding corridors. Instead, it has a large martial arts training ground with various martial arts knives displayed. Just looking at it makes one's blood boil.

Wei Xi came out from the gate, smiled and touched Lin Shuning's hand, gently shook it and said: "The third young lady is here. I am not in a good condition and I am sorry for not coming to greet you in person. I should have gone to see you in person and thank you very much, but it took so long."

A hint of guilt flashed across Wei Xi's eyes.

Lin Shuning held her hand and said with a smile, "Didn't Madam Yun ask Lord Yun to come to her house to thank me? She also gave me so many thank-you gifts. If I'm not satisfied, it would be a bit unreasonable."

Wei Xi raised her eyes, a hint of shock flashed across her beautiful eyes. She looked at Lin Shuning and Yun Sheng in front of her and blurted out, "Miss San, you look like my husband, especially your eyes. They are just like you were carved from the same mold."
