Jian An'an and Chu Junxing finished eating and were about to put away the plates.

Xi'er hurriedly came over.

"I'll take care of things here. Second Young Master and Second Young Madam, please go in and have a rest."

Jian Anan smiled at Xi'er and returned to the room.

Since I slept for a long time before, I just ate so many meals.

Jian Anan tossed and turned on the kang, unable to fall asleep.

She simply got off the kang, opened the door and walked out.

When Chu Junxing saw Jian Anan going out, he hurriedly followed.

Now his body is almost healed. Except for the gauze still wrapped around his hands, there is nothing serious elsewhere.

Jian Anan heard the footsteps and turned around to see Chu Junxing following him.

She asked doubtfully: "Why did you come out with me?"

Chu Junxing coughed lightly: "I can't sleep alone."

Jian Anan covered her mouth and snickered. This guy needs someone to accompany him when he sleeps.

Jian Anan wanted to go out for a walk, so she opened the courtyard door.

Chu Junxing followed immediately.

"Where are you going?"

Jian Anan thought of the conversation with the woman in the afternoon.

She felt that the poisoning of Xiaodouzi's family must be related to the Yufeng family.

She couldn't sleep now anyway, so she might as well go check it out.

Maybe you can find something.

Jian Anan told Chu Junxing what she was thinking.

Although Chu Junxing disapproved of Jian Anan going out so late, he didn't stop her.

The two of them walked towards Yufeng's house.

Now the people in Qingshui Village have already gone to bed.

It was quiet outside, except for the chirping of insects.

Not far after the two of them walked out, they saw a black shadow flash past.

Jian Anan immediately stopped. She saw the black figure climbing over the wall and entering the courtyard of a house.

She immediately grabbed Chu Junxing's wrist and walked towards that house.

The two came to the wall and listened to what was going on inside.

They were waiting for the man to come out so they could catch him off guard.

Soon they heard a "clang" sound in the yard.

Immediately afterwards, a woman's scream came from the house.

"Ah, ghost!"

Jian Anan took a few steps back, rubbed her hands, ran over in a few strides, and jumped onto the courtyard wall.

Chu Junxing looked up and saw Jian Anan riding on the courtyard wall, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He didn't expect that Jian An'an would be like this.

Chu Junxing used Qinggong to jump up and soon sat next to Jian Anan.

The two of them looked at the dark courtyard, where a man in black was standing by the window.

He bared his teeth and claws at the room.

A woman's scream came from inside the house again.

"There's a ghost, don't come over, don't come over!"

The man stood outside the window and smiled slyly.

He was only focused on scaring the people in the room, but he didn't notice that there were two people sitting on the wall of the courtyard watching a play.

Soon, the man turned around and ran towards the courtyard wall.

When he came to the courtyard wall, he saw two people sitting on the wall.

Before he could see the appearance of the two people clearly, his scalp was numb with fear, and he hurriedly turned around and ran back.

"Ghost!" There were also bursts of howling sounds coming from the man's mouth.

A father and son in the room opened the door at this moment and walked out angrily.

With sticks and candles in their hands, they strode up to the man and stopped him.

When they saw clearly the people in the yard, their eyes widened in shock.

They soon realized that the ghosts that had just appeared were all pretended by humans.

"It turns out it's you, kid. Why did you come to my house and act so weird?"

Through the candlelight, both Chu Junxing and Jian Anan could see the man's face clearly.

They remembered that the man was a servant of Yufeng's mother-in-law's family.
