On the way back from their investigation, Lou Xiao and the other two happened to meet Mo Jingchun, who had a puzzled look on his face.

It is always a bit strange to meet an acquaintance in the wilderness, let alone a person like Mo Jingchun.

Mo Jingchun quickly adjusted his face to smile and greeted him.

Lou Xiao was not in a good mood. After all, they did deliberately avoid people when they set out, and they did not leave any clues along the way.

Not like before.

How did he know their path?

With a look of vigilance on her face, she stopped him and said, "Stop. Why are you here if you're not staying with him in the village?"

Forget about coming out to bask in the moonlight or anything like that. We're still in the mountains and there's no one around.

Mo Jingchun mysteriously extended his index finger to his lips and said, "Shh," "Let's... talk somewhere else."

He wasn't afraid of meeting anyone, but since she was doing "big things", that might not be the case.

I hope she is not here for "that thing".

Otherwise it would be really difficult.

Ai Ying glanced at him and then turned her gaze back to Lou Xiao, waiting for her decision.

Lou Xiao nodded, used his Qinggong to shake them off and walked back quickly. Ai Ying and Er Liu hurriedly followed.

Mo Jingchun used his fingertips to push the hair that was blown by the wind behind his ears and whispered to himself, "Ah...what should I do?"

Lou Xiao had no intention of waiting for him. She looked much colder than usual, with no expression on her face in the night, as if she had something heavy on her heart that she couldn't tell him.

Mo Jingchun was slightly out of breath as he tried to catch up. As the village got closer, he said coquettishly, "Wait for me... Miss, how can you be so cruel..."

Lou Xiao stopped and looked back at him. When he came closer, she asked, "Are you looking for me? How do you know where I am?"

It was not a good thing to have others know whereabouts, so Lou Xiao had the urge to kill.

This Mo Jingchun didn't seem as insignificant as she had previously thought.

"Have you been following us?" Ai Ying asked, but quickly denied the guess, "No, you don't have that ability."

Mo Jingchun's strength was obviously slightly inferior to theirs, and he posed no threat. Otherwise, they would not have tolerated him pestering Lou Xiao for so many days.

"This man... you don't have to say such harsh words." Mo Jingchun raised his lips slightly and said to Ai Ying first, then looked at Lou Xiao with all his heart, "With my skills, won't I be discovered if I follow you?"

They were already very close to the village. If they went back, they would find out that the man was not there.

It would be better for him to say it.

"Actually, it's because he... I don't know why he disappeared. I thought you guys wanted to dump me again, but when I saw his luggage was still there, I searched all over the village for him.

I didn’t expect to run into you guys by accident.”

Mo Jingchun looked a little worried. "He's not with you? What should we do? Do you know where he will go?"

He stared at Lou Xiao closely, trying to see how sad and anxious she looked.

When Lou Xiao heard that Li Huaiqing was missing, she immediately retorted, "It's impossible for him to come to us. He doesn't know how to fight. What do you mean by missing? He is a sensible person and won't wander around."

As he spoke, his face became heavier and his pace quickened. He asked Mo Jingchun, "Did he take anything with him? Was there anything wrong before he disappeared?"

Er Liu and Ai Ying realized the seriousness of the matter. How could Li Huaiqing, a scholar pretending to be sick, disappear for no reason?

"I went to the river to fetch water and didn't notice anything wrong."

Mo Jingchun looked virtuous and said, "I didn't see you until I was done with my work."

He was somewhat satisfied that Lou Xiao did not lose her composure and was not too anxious, which meant that she did not have any thoughts about that person.

She doesn't like him either.

As for whether he would be suspected - he had already done it, what was there for him to be afraid of!
