Chapter 1043 Questioning
"Ah, my painting!"

The painting was blown by the wind and fell to Ye Qian's feet. She bent down to pick up the portrait on the ground.

The painting paper is a little yellowed, and there are a few small holes that have been chewed by bookworms in some places. It can be seen that it is quite old. The person who collected this painting must have cherished it very much, otherwise it would not have been preserved for such a long time.

The portrait on the paper was of a handsome man. When Ye Qian saw the face of the man clearly, she couldn't help but frown. From the corner of her eye, she saw Gu Yingying walking over quickly with her skirt in hand. She folded the portrait and gave it back to him.

"Thank you. I thought it was going to be blown away by the wind. It scared me to death."

"Girl, the man in this portrait is extremely handsome, but is he your sweetheart?" Ye Qian asked pretending not to care.

"Don't look at how handsome he is, but he is a real evil spirit!" Gu Yingying put the portrait into her purse and lowered her voice, "Master said that Master Zeng will spend his whole life exorcising evil spirits. This evil spirit is the only one who has passed away from Master Zeng. After escaping, Master Zeng has been searching for the whereabouts of this evil spirit without any news, and finally died of depression."

"So we disciples of Nebula Temple, in addition to inheriting the destiny of exorcising evil spirits, are to find this evil spirit." Gu Yingying clenched her fists tightly and said with determination, "No matter where he is hiding, I will find him out. ! Humph, once I’m caught, my brothers and sisters will look at me with admiration! Let’s see if they dare to say that Master favors me!”

Ye Qian looked at the other person's confident look and smiled lightly. She would not make any comment on this matter.

He turned around and headed to the study, knocking on the door.

She had only seen Ye Jing with short hair in another world, but that portrait was clearly of him. He had the same appearance, but was dressed differently. His hair was straight and long, and the tear mole under his right eye was particularly eye-catching.

"Come in."

Hearing the voices of the people inside, Ye Qian put back her thoughts and pushed the door open.

Xia Yifei raised his eyes and saw the woman who came in. His otherworldly appearance made him stunned, and he quickly concealed the surprise in his eyes.

"I heard from Mr. Gu that the girl has something to do with me?"

"Master Xia." Ye Qian blessed the man behind the desk and said coldly, "I heard that you caught the murderer at the Peace Inn and took everyone away. Is this true?"

Xia Yifei raised her eyebrows. This woman was well-dressed, and her tone of voice was neither humble nor overbearing. She even had a questioning tone. For a while, she couldn't tell who she was.

"Yes." Xia Yifei put down the brush in his hand, and did not want to follow the other party in circles. He leaned lazily on the back of the chair, clasped his hands on his chest, and looked at the woman in front of him with sharp eyes like an eagle, looking at her carefully.

Soon, I couldn't help but feel shocked. Many men would feel inexplicable fear under his gaze. The woman in front of him could actually look at him calmly. It could be said that she was simply ignoring him.

From this point, he is appreciative.

"A homicide has occurred in Zidu. It is a blessing for the people of Ziguo to investigate and solve this case with all your might, but if you don't ask about indiscriminate detainment of all the guests of the Peace Inn, such an approach is somewhat unreasonable!"

"So, the lady's friend was taken into the Siwei mansion by my lord?" Xia Yifei gradually drew a beautiful arc on the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "The murder case has not been solved, everyone is suspected, including you, girl!"
