Tong Sheng

Kong Rui knew that Zi Xuan must have sealed the child's voice so that he couldn't call for help.

Kong Rui frowned slightly and thought about it for a moment before asking, "Did you notice anyone else in the room besides her?"

The boy shook his head. "There was no one else!"

"Are you that certain?" Kong Rui was a little suspicious and confirmed again.

"That's right! She's been living alone for a while," the little boy said affirmatively.

"My mother said that that woman comes to stay in Fragrant Garden for a while every year. It's said that she's Fragrant Garden's boss," the little boy said mysteriously, then added, "But I heard this from Sister Xianger."

Kong Rui nodded in understanding. As she looked at the little boy's tattered clothes, she asked with concern, "What's your name? How old are you this year?"

"My name is Tong Sheng. I'm already nine years old."
