Yesterday night, when she inquired about this matter in Pei Yunmeng's study, Pei Yunmeng refused to divulge the reason. However, having come to Mangming Village today and seen the Yang Family's burnt-down house, there were no other findings.
For such a simple matter that could be explained in a few words, why bother to make the trip in person?
It couldn't be because she damaged Pei Yunmeng's wooden pagoda last night that he wished to spitefully complicate a simple matter and torment her with this unnecessary journey.
Pei Yunmeng stared at her and began with a smile, "Doctor Lu, why does it sound like you're blaming me for meddling too much."
"Lord Pei is overthinking it."
"You've said many times that I'm overthinking things, but that seems to make me out to be a villain with sinister intentions."
Lu Tong swallowed the words "Isn't that the case" and simply smiled faintly, "I had no such intention."
He then nodded nonchalantly and said, "I was afraid you wouldn't believe it."
