Chapter 100: Offending (Second Update)

Xie Lin felt that something was off today. After Su Rong sent off Zhou Gu, she seemed to not have returned home. At dinner, she was absent, and both the Governor and Madam Su seemed to lack appetite, eating only a little before putting down their chopsticks. Su Xingze, however, seemed normal, but he seemed too quiet for Xie Lin's liking.

After dinner, Xie Lin quietly asked Su Xingze, "Brother Su, has something happened? I noticed both the Governor and his wife seem a little upset."

Su Xingze smiled, "Zhou Gu's departure and Su Qi's stay at the Xie Residence made my parents feel a bit weird, but there's nothing to worry about."

Xie Lin nodded, puzzled but thinking it inappropriate to ask why Su Rong was staying over at the Xie Residence.

Back in his room, Xie Lin called over his personal guard, Qing Feng. "Go and quietly find out if anything unusual happened at Su's today. I have a feeling that something's up."

Qing Feng answered affirmatively.
