Chapter 241 Cause of Death
When Chunxiao heard the maid's words, her face turned livid with anger, and she said angrily: "These people have nothing to do, and they talk about the young master and the eldest lady like that. They don't know the situation of the Huo family and they talk nonsense! Chew the roots of your ears, and hold on when you're full!"

"Chunxiao, mouths grow on people's faces, let them talk!" Although Huo Zhirou's face was a little ugly when she heard the maid say this, but seeing Chunxiao so angry, no amount of her anger would dissipate. some.

Chunxiao looked at Huo Zhirou who didn't care at all, stomped her feet, and said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, why do you let them say that they will ruin the image of you and the young master again!"

Huo Zhirou sighed softly, and said to Chunxiao: "Chunxiao, do you still remember that when Jiang Guqiu was still living here, there was a period of time in Jincheng where I was arrogant and domineering, and I was extremely willful. Do you remember?"

When Chunxiao heard Huo Zhirou's words, she frowned and nodded, "Your servant remembers!"

"Later, the rumors dissipated without attack, what are we afraid of?" Huo Zhirou said with a cold smile.

"But miss, you are now engaged to Master Yuan, what if my uncle is influenced by these rumors and dissolves the marriage?" Chun Xiao's face showed deep worry.

Hearing Chunxiao's words, Huo Zhirou poked her on the head with her finger, and said to Chunxiao angrily and amusedly: "Chunxiao, why do I feel that you are getting more and more stupid? They are all from Yuanmen, logically speaking, they should become smart, why are they so stupid?" After speaking, there was a disgusted expression on his face.

When Chun Xiao heard Huo Zhirou's words, her face was full of grievances, "Miss, what Yuanmen eats is not smart medicine, how can slaves become smarter?"

The maid at the side bowed her head and laughed when she heard Chun Xiao's rebuttal.

Huo Zhirou laughed, poked Chunxiao's head again, and said to her: "Chunxiao is so stupid! Bo Han and I have been walking together, he doesn't know what kind of temperament I am, if he really doesn't want me because of the rumors outside, then I don't want him too!"

As soon as Huo Zhirou's words fell, Yuan Bohan's voice came from outside the door, "What do you mean you don't want me? Huh? Rou'er, do you want me?"

As soon as Yuan Bohan's words fell, the faces of the people present changed. Huo Zhirou didn't expect her words to be heard by Yuan Bohan. She looked at Yuan Bohan who walked in with a gloomy face, and smiled embarrassingly , pointing at Chunxiao, "Chunxiao said you are going to abandon me!"

Chunxiao turned pale suddenly, knelt on the ground, and said, "Your maidservant said the wrong thing!"

Yuan Bohan cast his sharp eyes on Chun Xiao's body, causing cold sweat to break out on Chun Xiao's back and forehead. If the young lady was still in front of her and didn't want to embarrass the young lady, Chunxiao would have been limp at this time. on the ground.

Huo Zhirou watched Yuan Bohan vent his anger on Chun Xiao, pulled Yuan Bohan's arm with some reluctance, and said, "Chun Xiao is not to blame for this, don't be angry!"

When Yuan Bohan heard Huo Zhirou's words, he snorted coldly, and said coldly to Chun Xiao who was kneeling on the ground: "Chun Xiao, it is true that the more you live, the more stupid you are!"

When Chun Xiao heard Yuan Bohan's words that were the same as Huo Zhirou's, her eyes turned red, and she was about to cry, but Huo Zhirou was taken aback for a moment, then puffed her cheeks, this guy actually listened to the corner of the wall!I don't know how long I've been listening to it!
Thinking of this, Huo Zhirou said to Chun Xiao: "Chun Xiao, Xiao Liu, you go down first!"

"Yes..." The two shouted in unison, and Xiao Liu saw Chunxiao's limp feet, and then helped her up. The two left the room and closed the door by the way.

When only Huo Zhirou and Yuan Bohan were left in the room, Huo Zhirou stared at Yuan Bohan and said, "You frightened the maid, Chunxiao, so much that her feet go limp!"

Yuan Bohan heard Huo Zhirou's words, and said with displeasure: "Who told her to talk nonsense."

Huo Zhirou was angry and funny, she put her waist in, said to Yuan Bohan with a pretty face, "Tell me honestly, when did you stand outside, hum!"

Looking at Huo Zhirou's actions, Yuan Bohan put away the displeasure on his face, "I was outside just when you were talking about Jiang Guqiu. I wanted to come here and talk to you about the rumors outside, but I didn't expect you to know about it. , and still say these words, hum! Rou'er, don't you trust me?"

After Yuan Bohan finished speaking, a sad expression appeared on his face. This expression made Huo Zhirou angry again, and he couldn't get angry anymore.

Huo Zhirou stepped forward and hugged Yuan Bohan helplessly, "If I didn't trust you, would I say Chun Xiao is stupid? You really are!"

When Yuan Bohan heard Huo Zhirou's explanation, the corners of Yuan Bohan's mouth curled up slightly.

"Okay, let's not mention this matter anymore, who spread the rumors outside?" Huo Zhirou raised his head and asked aloud.

"I've already sent people to investigate. The rumors have spread since the magistrate left the Huo family yesterday. What do you think?" Yuan Bohan's brows were tinged with hostility.

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou snorted coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Does this guy think that spreading rumors about my brother and me in Jincheng can make us die for Luo Xing?"

"I thought you would compromise." Yuan Bohan touched Huo Zhirou's cheek, and said immediately: "As a businessman, one must have good moral character to be trusted. Since ancient times, filial piety has been the most important thing. If you are filial, you will be trusted Leave the gossip."

Huo Zhirou shook his head and said helplessly: "Since my elder brother was captured last time, the Huo family's shop in Jincheng was attacked and the manager left, the Huo family's business in Jincheng has been hit hard, and they can never recover. The splendor, coupled with Situ Fan's betrayal, the business of the Huo family and Yuanmen can't recover now."

Here, Huo Zhirou smiled coquettishly and said: "Fortunately, I am your fiancee now, so I can take advantage of you. Otherwise, the Huo family and Yuanmen's business breaches the contract, and the Huo family will have to pay the compensation!"

When Yuan Bohan heard Huo Zhirou's words, he smiled and said to Huo Zhirou: "Yes! Now you are my woman, so if you sell yourself as compensation, it will be fine!"

When Huo Zhirou heard Yuan Bohan's words, he burst out laughing with a "puchi", and stared at him coquettishly.

Yuan Bohan gently touched Huo Zhirou's head, and said: "About the business of the Huo family, I'm afraid the prefect of Jincheng will embarrass the Huo family during this period, so the business is temporarily suspended to prevent them from tampering with the business and waiting for things to happen." After the processing is completed, and then recover, with the help of Yuanmen, are you still afraid that the Huo family's business will not be able to continue?"

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou nodded and said: "Recently, my brother is also dealing with the business of the Jincheng store, alas! The grandfather who has something to do under the spring knows that we have made the Huo family like this, so we must be unfilial."

Hearing what Huo Zhirou said, Yuan Bohan hugged her and patted her on the back comfortingly, "I'm the one who got you both."

"Bohan, it's none of your business. Without you, the Huo family would have changed hands a long time ago. At that time, we would be even more ashamed of our well-known grandfather and mother." Huo Zhirou raised his head and looked straight at Yuan Bo Han.

Looking at the water in Huo Zhirou's eyes, Yuan Bohan sighed softly, hugged Huo Zhirou, and said, "Rou'er, the most fortunate thing in my life is that I came to Jincheng and met Huo Zhirou. Do you know when we first met?"

Hearing Yuan Bohan's question, Huo Zhirou raised his head in confusion, "When? Wasn't it when you were swimming in the lake?"

"No!" Yuan Bohan gently scratched the tip of Huo Zhirou's nose with his fingers, and said with a smile, "It's in Fayuan Temple."

"Fayuan Temple?" Huo Zhirou was startled, "Have you been to Fayuan Temple?"

"Hmm! I've been there. When I heard you scolding Jiang Guqiu's mother and daughter severely, I remembered that proud look in my heart. I wondered who this delicate young lady was. I met you once, so I sent Situ Fan to the Huo Mansion."

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou became deep in thought, and suddenly something came to his mind, and his face gradually blushed.He said to Yuan Bohan: "You were there that day, my image was ruined."

"Hehehe!" Yuan Bohan looked at Huo Zhirou's blushing appearance, and gently kissed Huo Zhirou's cheek, "In my heart, your image will always be the best."

The corners of Huo Zhirou's mouth curled up, and he hugged Yuan Bohan tightly.

"By the way, Rou'er, besides telling you the rumors, I have one more thing about the cause of Luo Xingwei's death." The smile on Yuan Bohan's face gradually disappeared.

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou withdrew from Yuan Bohan's embrace, and asked Yuan Bohan, "Didn't he commit suicide?"

"Yes and no!" Yuan Bohan shook his head.

Huo Zhirou frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Luo Xingwei did commit suicide, but it was not his will, but someone controlled his mind and made him commit suicide." Yuan Bohan thought of Yuan Yin's investigation, his eyes were covered with frost.

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou said in surprise: "Control? How to control? Don't whet my appetite, just tell me the reason!"

Yuan Bohan looked at the anxious Huo Zhirou, shook his head amusingly, pulled her aside and sat down, and then said to Huo Zhirou, "Do you know Gu?"

"Gu?" Huo Zhirou frowned tightly, "I've heard of it, but I didn't know much about it at the time."

"Gu is a poisonous insect cultivated by people. Using this poisonous insect to release Gu to control people's behavior and thoughts is a kind of mysterious witchcraft, and Luo Xing made it because he was released before death. After such a move, I asked Yuan Yin to secretly go to the morgue in the Yamen to check Luo Xingwei's body, and found Gu worms from the body, which confirmed this idea."

Hearing Yuan Bohan's words, Huo Zhirou suddenly felt a chill, goosebumps popped out, and said to Yuan Bohan with horror: "Bohan, it means that someone put bugs in his body , control him?"

"That's right!" Yuan Bohan saw the fear on Huo Zhirou's face, patted her on the back, and said, "It's okay, I'm here!"

"It's terrible that a bug can control people." Huo Zhirou couldn't imagine this fact.

"That's why I say it's a witchcraft. I asked decent people to choose this voodoo person. I believe he is still in Jincheng. This person is a dangerous person. We must catch him!" Yuan Bohan's eyes showed a stern look. .

Huo Zhirou nodded, "That's right! We must catch him, it's too scary! Then Bohan, since he controlled Luo Xing to death, why do you want us to bury him?"

Yuan Bohan sighed softly when he heard Huo Zhirou's question, and said, "I'm still investigating this matter, I don't think it's simple, it probably has something to do with this poison, as long as you catch this Gu people will know the truth of the matter!"

Huo Zhirou nodded when he heard Yuan Bohan's words, and at this moment, he heard a knock on the door...
