Young Master He didn't know it, or pretended not to see it, and took Dalima to sit down at the dinner table.

Shangguan Ruoli secretly observed Zi Yan's expression and found that her eyes only stayed on the hands held by the two for a moment, and then she was busy with her own business.

Although his expression was a little stiff, he no longer looked painful.

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and just let it go.

In fact, having a secret love is both beautiful and painful. When you know there is no hope, you should let it go as soon as possible.

After dinner, Dongming Ziyu played with Ling Yu and enjoyed family time.

Shangguan Ruoli put the washed clothes in and saw one senior and one young playing chess.

Ling Yu was a small figure, sitting cross-legged on the couch with a sullen face, holding a white chess piece between her index and middle fingers, looking at the chessboard in deep thought.

Shangguan Ruoli laughed when he saw that Ling Yu was acting like a young adult. Ling Yu was too quiet. Even though he had been traveling outside for more than a year, his personality had not changed.

Shangguan Ruoli hugged his clothes and went over to take a look. He found that Ling Yu was walking in a very orderly manner. Of course, he was at the entry level.

Dongming Ziyu was very patient with his daughter, guiding her in a gentle voice and explaining basic techniques.

Ling Yao was precociously intelligent and had an out-of-the-box temperament. She was obsessed with medicine and practiced martial arts since she was a child. She rarely had such a warm and quiet time with Dongming Ziyu.

Shangguan Ruoli smiled and went into the inner room to tidy up his clothes without disturbing the father and daughter.

Not long after, Dongming Ziyu came in and hugged her from behind.

Shangguan Ruoli patted his hand and asked, "Is Ling Yu asleep?"

"Well, use your brain and I'll fall asleep in a while." Dongming Ziyu said, showing a sly smile.

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes widened in disbelief, "You didn't ask Ling Yu to go to bed quickly so you could play chess with her, right?"

Dongming Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly, "What? They have been busy these past few days, and they still don't want me to seek some benefits for themselves?"

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't laugh or cry, "Fuck you! Fortunately, I was quite moved by the interaction between your father and daughter just now."

"Hahaha, now you are even more moved!" As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the back of her head, pressed his hot lips down, and captured her lips accurately and fiercely.

In this kiss, Shangguan Ruoli could truly feel his surging passion, which was so intense that it seemed like it was about to drown her.

It wasn't until both of them were out of breath that Dongming Ziyu let go of her. He accidentally glanced at the glass mirror on the dressing table and said in a low voice, "Look, there is the most beautiful woman there.

"

After saying that, he gave up his position, held her whole body in his arms, and said in her ear: "Look! The most beautiful woman, and the man who is most suitable for her."

In the mirror, there was not only her charming face after the passionate kiss, but also his deep eyes and stunning appearance.

Shangguan Ruoli glared at him coquettishly, couldn't help but burst into laughter, and said with a smile: "The Supreme Emperor, where is your face?"

Outsiders must not know that Dongming Ziyu, who is so cold and stern, can actually say such sweet words.

But it is undeniable that after listening to his sweet words, she felt as sweet as a little girl who had just begun to sympathize with him.

Alas! It’s really hopeless!

Shangguan Ruoli put his arms around his neck and kissed his lips.

"No! It's on fire!" A panicked voice outside interrupted a love affair.

Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli looked at each other, then straightened their clothes and went out to see the situation.

I saw flames rising into the sky to the north of the town, which was exactly the direction of the Wu family.

Shangguan Ruoli had a bad premonition, so he jumped up on the wall and used Qinggong to take a closer look.

Dongming Ziyu had no choice but to follow him.

Sure enough, it was the Wu family that caught fire, and the fire started in the backyard.

A disgraced Ding was organizing people to put out the fire. When he saw Shangguan Ruoli and Dongming Ziyu approaching, he came up to them and said, "I have met Madam, Mr. Yuan."

Shangguan Ruoli glanced at the burned-out house and asked, "What's going on?"

Chief Ding said: "This is Wu Liu's room. She and Wu Xiaoji were both burned to death."

Shangguan Ruoli narrowed his eyes, "Burned to death? Where is the body?"

Captain Ding pointed to a big tree where Wu Zuo was conducting an autopsy.

Shangguan Ruoli walked over and saw two charred corpses, one large and one small, on the ground.

Asked Wu Zuo: "What was found?"

Wu Zuosheng said with difficulty: "It's all burned like this. I can only see a woman and a child, but nothing else can be seen."

"You have never seen people burned alive, have you? People burned alive have hideous faces and curled up bodies because of pain." Shangguan Ruoli pointed to the lying corpses and said: "But although these two corpses are lying flat,

, looking very peaceful.”

Dongming Ziyu gave Mo Wen a wink, and Mo Wen took out his dagger, stepped forward, and used the dagger to cut open the deceased's nasal cavity. "The inside is clean. He died first and was burned to death later."

Seeing that Wu Zuo was still confused, Ding Captou explained: "If it were burned alive, the deceased would inhale a lot of soot, and the nasal cavity and mouth would not be so clean."

He nodded in a learned manner. He had only been working as a police officer for a few years, and there were not many murders in the town, let alone many arson cases. He had very little experience.

Mo Wen cut open the corpse of the deceased with a dagger and said: "The corpse stinks and has been dead for more than three days. And judging from the scorched condition, it must have been burned beforehand."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled lightly and said, "Wu Liu and Xiao Ji were fine during the day, and the corpses don't stink."

Mrs. Wu Liu was also very cautious, fearing that the fire would be put out in time and the body would not be burned beyond recognition, so she burned the body in advance.

He is really... cunning and vicious.

Chief Ding said: "The golden cicada's plan to escape! I caught Ji Chun to scare the snake. In this case, the murderer should be Wu Liu."

Dongming Ziyu held Shangguan Ruoli's hand and said, "Okay, let's go back."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded. She had seen it just now. The secret guard who stayed here was not there, and he should be following the Wu Liu family.

In this case, Wu Liu should be caught soon.

Dongming Ziyu still secretly left Mo Xiang and An Yi behind, asking them to follow the marks left by the secret guards to help.

The two returned to the inn, first went to see Ling Yu who was asleep, and then went back to their room.

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't sleep, so he sat on the couch and read a book, waiting for Wu Liu's captors to come back.

Dongming Ziyu went to take a shower. When he came out, he saw that she was still reading and asked, "Why don't you go to bed and wait?"

What he said was meaningful and had some hint.

Of course Shangguan Ruoli understood that they were an old couple, so he put down the book helplessly and raised his eyes.

He had changed into pajamas. The white silk robe with purple lines looked noble and elegant. It was tied with a belt around his waist. What caught the eye was not only his long legs but also his pert butt.

Emma!

Shangguan Ruoli almost had a nosebleed. Her man was like a walking clothes rack, and he looked good no matter what he wore.

Well, it looks good even without wearing it...
