Chapter 129

Inside the inn, Leng Lingbi sat silently eating, his eyes downcast, waiting for Lady Fu to return. With the daylight fading outside, Lady Fu had likely already returned to the Su Residence. If he couldn't find an excuse to delay his move by tomorrow, he would have to relocate there. Since she was busy at the inn every day, it was proving difficult to make any meaningful contact with her. Leng Lingbi told himself these thoughts were merely for the sake of investigating her true identity; there were no personal desires involved. Suddenly, a commotion erupted at a small tavern outside the inn. Mingyu pushed his wheelchair to the window. Below, they saw a group of people with flushed faces and purple lips stumbling out of the tavern. They helped a man into a carriage and whipped the horses, rushing away in a hurry—the signs were clear: they had been poisoned!
