"Wu Deguang?" they were surprised. They almost forgot this side character who is Pei Ru's husband.
Shi Jiu nodded as they looked at Wu Deguang walking back to his room.
"What happened to him? Or – " Huo Ling spoke. " – what did he do?" he asked.
"I saw him standing around in that area." Shi Jiu answered and pointed.
They turned to the direction he was pointing at. They thought that it was familiar and then suddenly remembered that the area is where Pei Tingming's room is located. They were surprised.
"He's lurking around there… could it be that he is suspecting Xu Hongkai's death?" Jiu Ye guessed.
They didn't speak, but they felt that it was possible. Xu Hongkai is a famous lord in Anhe. Wu Deguang can't go back with just a corpse and without a proper explanation for Xu Hongkai's death. After all, Wu Deguang is Pei Ru's husband and Xu Hongkai attended Pei Tingming's funeral. Wu Deguang must get to the bottom of this case.
