"Yue'er, where were you last night and today?" There was no one else around Liu Ruoshi, so it was obvious she wanted to ask Wang Yue some questions in private.
"I went to the Su family's base with my aunt and asked Aunt Yan Fangfei some questions," Wang Yue said, half-truth and half-lie.
Liu Ruoshi looked at Wang Yue and asked, "So do you know that Elder Li Chonghe, who came from Tianhai last night, has encountered some trouble?"
"Li Chonghe? What kind of trouble could he have?" Wang Yue asked in feigned surprise.
He and his aunt had discussed killing Li Chonghe, deciding not to let anyone else know about it. It wasn't that they didn't trust anyone, but they didn't want to cause anyone else any trouble. Moreover, the more people knew about it, the greater the chances that mistakes would be made when people from Tianhai came to investigate.
Liu Ruoshi said, "This morning, someone found that he had been killed thirty miles south of Jinling City."
