Alpha officials suddenly courted me

Chapter 8: Wen Ningwan is in Danger

The lights of the flower market are like daytime, and there is no sound of cars and horses at night.

Wen Ningwan stood at the entrance of the alley and stared at the closed door from afar, the surroundings were silent, red lanterns were hung in every household, only that family had two white lanterns.

With the lamp still on, Wen Ningwan didn't dare to get too close for fear of danger.

Looking at the figures walking around the room, back and forth, they seem to be packing things.

Wen Ningwan immediately became alert, did she want to leave the city overnight?

In her capacity, it is not difficult to leave the city when the city gate is closed.

Wen Ningwan looked back anxiously, there was no sound in the alley, Miao Shishi's rescuers could not have arrived so quickly, even the neighbors around had gone to the street to watch the lantern show at this point.

Looking at the person she was about to leave, Wen Ningwan bit the bullet and ran up.

As soon as the woman opened the door, she saw the young woman rushing to the door suddenly, smiling at her awkwardly, she was stunned, and looked Wen Ningwan up and down.

She didn't wear a purple official dress tonight, but a light blue sand jacket, which made her whole person soft and graceful, with an innocent and romantic smile, like someone's well-protected daughter, pure and lovely.

"You are?" The woman looked around suspiciously, seeing that she seemed to be looking for her, she felt a little more defensive.

Wen Ningwan immediately suppressed her smile, straightened her back, imitating the appearance of a national teacher, and looked seriously at the person who was about to go out with a bag.

"Miss Li, are you going on a long trip?"

Miss Li was slightly stunned, and nodded: "My father is not in good health, and I am in a hurry, so I want to go back quickly."

"Are you... looking for me?" Miss Li looked at the strange girl in front of her suspiciously.

"En." Wen Ningwan nodded, the candlelight in the room was flickered by the wind, and the window creaked.

Wen Ningwan made an excuse: "I'm afraid your window is not closed properly, why don't we go in and talk."

Ms. Li turned her head and looked at the girl in front of her again, a young girl, she didn't pay attention at all.

"Please."

Wen Ningwan nodded with a pretended relaxed smile, and followed in.

The furniture in the house was basically packed, and the boxes were placed aside, obviously wanting to come back to pick them up another day.

"I'm sorry, there's nothing to entertain at home, so just tell me if you have anything to do. I'm also busy going back to my mother's house." Miss Li smiled lightly.

Wen Ningwan sat on the table beside her and looked around. Except for the two white lanterns at the door, there was no sign of a funeral in the room.

"We found washed and dried fungi where your wife's body was found."

Miss Li looked slightly startled, the smile on her face froze instantly, she closed the window next to her pretending to be calm, and then smiled back.

"Are you from Dali Temple?"

Wen Ningwan nodded and shrugged helplessly: "I'm sorry, just now we went to Zou Yun's fellow villager for dinner, and the proprietress accidentally mentioned that you gave her the dried mushrooms you dried at home that morning."

Miss Li was stunned for a moment, smiled helplessly, and didn't intend to refute, but just looked at Wen Ningwan in a daze: "I heard that Wen Shaoqing was young and promising, and Cai'er was forced to plead guilty with a few words. A good investigator is indeed extraordinary."

"You're right." Miss Li spread her arms and walked towards her with a smile. Wen Ningwan's hands on her knees pressed her trembling legs tightly. Fortunately, there was a tablecloth blocking it, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

"I'm curious why Cai'er took the blame for you." Wen Ningwan talked to her pretending to be relaxed.

Miss Li took a deep breath, sat down opposite her, supported the table and poured a cup of old tea: "If you don't mind, how about a cup?"

"Okay." Wen Ningwan took the initiative to push the quilt.

Ms. Li was a little surprised by her reaction, smiled and poured a cup of herbal tea, and handed it over: "Wen Shaoqing's way of interrogating prisoners is really different from that group of old-fashioned people in Dali Temple."

"Because I'm still young, I'm old-fashioned when I'm old." Wen Ningwan smiled.

Miss Li looked at the person who took a sip of tea and smiled: "Are you not afraid that I will put something in the tea?"

"Pfft! Bah, bah, bah!" Wen Ningwan vomited hastily.

Miss Li laughed heartily: "I'm so timid, I'm just kidding you."

Wen Ningwan glanced at the smiling person, and then she felt relieved, and smiled wryly: "Miss Li~ It's not good for you to be so scary."

Ms. Li looked slightly startled, and then she laughed, looking at her with a gentler look, and then lowered her eyes sadly: "Zou Yun used to be like you, smiling without any thought, I was just attracted by her pure smile Yes, so I tried my best to marry her."

Wen Ningwan looked at her helplessly: "But emotional matters cannot be forced. You are so gentle and beautiful, with a generous temperament. It's a pity for someone who doesn't love you."

Miss Li shook her head, smiled softly, with tears in her absent-minded eyes: "You are still young, so you don't understand, sometimes you can do anything for someone you like."

"Including hurting her? Even killing her?" Wen Ningwan frowned slightly.

Miss Li was speechless and just lowered her head in pain.

"I don't agree with this kind of relationship. The most basic thing about liking someone is to respect her choice of whether she likes you or not, otherwise you will only make your own liking less beautiful."

"You're right, I made my liking for her disgusting with my own hands." Miss Li smiled wryly and shook her head:

"No wonder others, if I didn't force her, she is such a cheerful person, she wouldn't drink all day long and linger in romantic places."

"Don't blame yourself too much. It's a beautiful thing to like alone. It's just that some people's liking is too strong and they can't control their reason. That's why it's like this."

Wen Ningwan looked helplessly at the sad woman: "You said that I have a little cloud, then I think, if I were her, I would hope that you will find your way back and not live in guilt for the rest of your life."

Miss Li looked up at her, and smiled sadly: "Really? Would she think so?"

"Of course." Wen Ningwan nodded resolutely: "She is a counselor of the National Teacher's Mansion, a very smart person, and she must be an upright person like her own wife, not someone who shirks responsibility."

Miss Li smiled and shook her head, and looked at Wen Ningwan with a deep breath: "What should I do? I know you are lying to me, but I still want to believe you and want her to be like you."

Wen Ningwan stepped on the ground nervously, with a relaxed smile on her face: "The choice is up to you, let us find out, or explain it yourself, it doesn't matter."

"She hates people who waste her time the most." Miss Li sighed with a smile.

"We had a quarrel, that's why I went back to my mother's house, but I missed her so much, I came back early in the morning, but I ran into her eloping with someone else on the road, and I begged her to stay, and killed her by mistake while arguing."

Wen Ningwan was stunned for a moment, her face full of doubts: "What about Cai'er? How did she die?"

"It's not me." Miss Li sat up straight calmly: "I thought she was going to report me, but she didn't, and she admitted it."

Wen Ningwan frowned slightly: "Could it be that someone wants to kill someone to silence you?"

Miss Li was slightly startled, her eyes were slightly fixed, panic flashed in her eyes, and her voice was lowered a little: "Master Shaoqing was joking, Cai'er's top card has a lot of close relations with court officials. I know you have asked her before, and some people are worried about being implicated. It's normal for me to kill her."

"This……"

"Okay!" Miss Li suddenly lost her patience and got up: "Master Shaoqing, please go back, I will come back and surrender myself after seeing my father."

"Oh." Wen Ningwan got up suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and nodded with a hasty smile: "Okay, I hope I won't disturb your father tomorrow morning."

"Please." Miss Li stepped forward and opened the door.

Wen Ningwan smiled helplessly and walked out of the door. When she turned her head, Miss Li closed the door immediately without looking at her more.

Wen Ningwan walked away resentfully.

When she reached the entrance of the alley, she hesitated for a moment, always feeling that something was wrong: "How could she react when someone killed Cai'er for her? She seemed very scared."

Wen Ningwan suddenly froze, feeling her scalp tingling, the window opened just now, could it be that someone came in?Someone has been in the room listening to their conversation?

Wen Ningwan immediately turned around and ran to Ms. Li's house.

The light was still on, she kicked open the door, and a man in black was holding a blood-stained dagger, looking back fiercely at the intruder.

Li, who was lying in a pool of blood, raised her hand and tightly grasped the killer's trouser leg, her mouth was full of blood, she shook her head in pain, and begged: "It has nothing to do with her, don't, don't kill her..."
