Guan Rou's chest kept rising and falling.

This time she looked directly at Wen Xiuyuan.

Wen Xiuyuan looked normal.

During the argument between the two, Wen Xiuyuan remained silent.

At this time, seeing Guan Rou looking at him, Wen Xiuyuan just nodded slightly.

Guan Rou took a deep breath, then sat down and adjusted her breathing.

"It was me who suggested that the regional city guards rest in place."

Guan Rou smoothed her hair and tied it into a ponytail: "But I really didn't expect something like this to happen later."

Ning Fan wasn't surprised when he heard Guan Rou admit that it was she who suggested the break.

Guan Rou couldn't lie about this matter.

Anyway, the headquarters city guards have already entered the city. Ning Fan only needs to ask a few people and he will know the truth.

As long as Guan Rou is not a fool, she would not make up such a lie that could be exposed at any time.

After all, if it is discovered that she lied about this matter, no matter how much she explains, she will not be able to clear herself of suspicion.

"The morale of the regional city guards was quite low at the time. I was worried about a mutiny, so I suggested a rest to give the generals time to calm the soldiers."

Guan Rou was calmer than before: "After all, the strange beast behind us is still some distance away from us. I think there should be some time we can use."

Ning Fan thought about it and logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with what Guan Rou said.

But……

"Then let me ask more directly."

Ning Fan's gaze gradually grew sharper. "Miss Guan's suggestion of a break, was District Chief Xia a factor?"
