The prince is very cruel

Immediately afterwards, the two disappeared from the spot and began searching along the large rooms of the Lu family.

Soon, a quiet courtyard caught their attention.

There are many maids walking around here. Compared with other places in the Lu family, it is obviously much more solemn, and the specifications are also the largest. There is also a pond in the courtyard.

The two men avoided the servants and approached carefully along the corridor. Finally, they successfully climbed through the window into the room. Through the conversation with the servants, they determined that this was Lu Guangyi's resting place.

As soon as he entered the room, Guan Ning saw through a bead curtain that an old man in his twilight years was sleeping soundly on a soft bed. He looked quite similar to Lu Xiao, but his complexion was not very good and there was a towel on his forehead. At first glance, he really looked like someone who had been bedridden for many years.

"It's Lu Guangyi!" Lou Xinyue whispered.

Guan Ning nodded and tried to look, trying to see through the truth, but since the person was sleeping soundly, he didn't know whether he had a stroke.

Just as he got closer, suddenly, he couldn't help but sniff, and his face instantly became strange. This smell was very familiar!

"What's wrong?" Lou Xinyue whispered.

"Don't you smell anything?" Guan Ning said.

Lou Xinyue smelled it, her cold eyes blank, and she shook her head.

Guan Ning's mouth corners suddenly turned up, a little devilishly, "Just now I was just speculating, but now I'm sure that this old guy is pretending to be sick!"

"Why?" Lou Xinyue asked.

Guan Ning did not explain, but whispered something softly into her ear.

The two of them bent there, feeling like the best partners.

Lou Xinyue frowned and hesitated: "Is this... appropriate? What if this person really has a stroke?"

"I can't believe that the second-ranked female killer on the killer list is still so timid?" Guan Ning teased, thinking that this woman didn't seem to be so cold-blooded and ruthless in her heart.

Lou Xinyue's eyes turned cold, and she said coldly, "Do you think I sympathize with him?"

"Then do as I say. You won't go wrong. I'll show him his true form."

Lou Xinyue said nothing more after hearing this.

After a while, thick smoke suddenly rose in the room. Lu Guangyi's bedding was unexpectedly ignited without him knowing when. Although the fire was not big, Lu Guangyi, who was sleeping soundly, was choked awake!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

He coughed violently, vaguely woke up, and felt a chill in his heart.

"Someone, someone, come!"

He tried to call out, but no one answered, and his life was getting desperate.

The next second, Lu Guangyi, who had suffered a stroke for many years, suddenly turned over and stood up, picked up the teapot and poured it on the bed.

After three attempts, the small fire was finally extinguished.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"You bunch of bastards, do you want to burn me to death?" He growled angrily, but didn't want to make too much noise.

"Hey, Master Lu, calm down, calm down."

Suddenly, a nonchalant voice sounded in this room.

Suddenly, Lu Guangyi was shocked and turned around abruptly: "Who?"

Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue walked out from behind the screen. He had a signature nonchalant smile on his face. "Lord Lu, I'm sorry to meet you in this way. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Lu Guangyi sat down with a thud almost as a conditioned reflex. His right hand began to twitch and he spoke incoherently.

"You, who are you?"

“Come…someone…”

"Lord Lu, we are all thousand-year-old foxes. I think you should stop pretending. Weren't you full of energy when you put out the fire just now?" Guan Ning said with a smile.

"You, uh...you...wuuuu..." Lu Guangyi spoke unclearly, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth, and the word "stroke" was almost written on his forehead, which was extremely realistic.

Guan Ning pulled over a stool and sat down to watch his performance.

With a half-smile, he said, "I say, Master Lu, is this interesting? It's all exposed."

"You don't want your pretense of illness to get out, do you? That's a serious crime of deceiving the emperor."

When Lu Guangyi, who was twitching on the ground, heard these words, his face turned ugly. He knew he couldn't pretend anymore, so he simply stood up and returned to normal.

His brows were furrowed, forming the shape of a Sichuan character.

"You are the person Xiao'er mentioned who came to visit, right?"

Guan Ning grinned, looking harmless, and admitted generously: "That's right."
