The library, which had been so ancient and elegant just now, was now burning in a blazing fire.
Considering the time it took to leave the Library and reach the Sword Forging Pavilion, the fire was a bit too intense. With a little deduction, it could be seen that the flames were burning from the inside out.
Even if the fire could be put out, most of the contents would probably be destroyed.
Gongyi Shuiqing frowned and called over one of the guards in the library: "Has anyone entered the library before?"
"Master, no. No one has entered since you left—"
"Shuiqing, did you bring any flammable materials?" Lian Qianying asked.
"You saw it just now, I was just talking to this little girl—"
"Hmm..." Lian Qianying recalled the previous situation and nodded in approval.
The fire brigade entered the courtyard and began to put out the fire. Everyone in the Gongyi family also helped.
"Ah, what's going on?"
An unusually sharp voice, a tone of disbelief.
Ouyang Huanshi, holding Gong Yitian's arm, arrived here and his pupils contracted.
She let go of Gong Yi Tianhe's hand, rushed to Chu Shangli with great momentum, raised her hand and slapped her in the face -
Chu Shangli caught her wrist and asked indifferently, "What are you doing?"
"It had to be you, right? Earlier in the restaurant, you seemed to be able to use strange powers. You even caused a commotion in Jiange—so even if you have an alibi, it doesn't prove anything, right?" Ouyang Huanshi angrily said, "Do you know how many precious antiques are hidden in the Gongyi family's library? Even if they sold you, they couldn't afford the compensation!"
Ouyang Huanshi's words seemed to remind many people around him, and they also cast suspicious glances at Chu Shangli.
"Miss Ouyang Huanshi's words are too strange." Chu Shangli laughed and said, "This is the territory of the Gongyi family. Am I the only one in the Gongyi family who can use similar magical abilities?"
"Oh? If you say that, then you admit that you can light the library on fire remotely?"
"No." Chu Shangli shrugged: "Even if I really have that ability, I will definitely prioritize how to burn you instead of the library. In my eyes, you are much more of an eyesore than those precious antiques-"
"you--"
Ouyang Huanshi bit his lip and retreated behind Gongyi Tianhe: "Brother Tianhe, look at her! What gives her the confidence to be so domineering?"
"Is Dongxia domineering? I actually think Miss Ouyang Huanshi is much more domineering than Dongxia—" Chu Moyin suddenly said, "And Miss Ouyang Huanshi is not only domineering, but also has a dirty heart. I just seemed to accidentally see you go to see the head of the Gongyi family, and deliberately whispered some strange words in her ear, leading the lady to the library—let alone other things, how despicable is the head of the Gongyi family, your future father-in-law, in your eyes, to say that a female junior high school student seduced him and his expression was a little shaken?"
Ouyang Huanshi was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "I didn't know Chu Moyin you had a hobby of eavesdropping."
"I'm not the one eavesdropping at the base of the wall. You're the one who's actually near it, right? And—you're mocking me, so how did you know what happened in the Sword Forging Pavilion? Didn't you come from the flowerbed over there? That place and the Sword Forging Pavilion are completely different directions, right?"
