Chen Lianhe put down the teacup in his hand gracefully. He did not answer Xun Niannian's question, but said, "There is some progress in the case of Minister Xun."

Xun Niannian was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

But she soon became puzzled again.

The case of Xun Shangshu has been solved, which is a good thing! Why did Chen Lianhe look like that just now?

It made her think that someone had an accident!

That being said, Chen Lianhe has not forgotten the purpose of their visit.

Did he go out to investigate a case during those two days?

"What have you found out? My father... is innocent, right?"

"Based on the clues I have now, if nothing unexpected happens, it is indeed possible that Minister Xun was wrongly accused."

Chen Lianhe slightly opened his thin, rosy lips. Having just drunk tea, his lips looked glistening under the light, filled with a kind of unspoken love.

I don't know what it would feel like to kiss her at this moment...

Xun Niannian suddenly recalled the scene of feeding him fish soup before.

At that time, she was completely focused on completing the task.

And they evacuated immediately after completing the mission.

No other thoughts came to mind.

However, she recalled afterwards that his lips were warm and the feeling of kissing them...

Xun Niannian swallowed unconsciously.

Even she herself did not realize how direct her gaze was at that pair of pale pink thin lips!

Because Xun Niannian's gaze was too passionate and direct, coupled with the sudden YY sounds in her heart, Chen Lianhe couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to, and his expression suddenly paused.

He raised his eyes and looked at Xun Nian Nian.

When his black eyes met the girl's unconcealed gaze, they instantly became a little deeper.

Then, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.

That hint of mischief quickly entered Xun Niannian's pupils, and Xun Niannian finally came back to her senses.

When she met someone's deep and smiling eyes, Xun Niannian's expression froze, and then her cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She woke up instantly!

[What was I doing just now! I was so mesmerized by his lips! I was even thinking about what it would feel like to kiss him...]

[I am too... indecent! ]

[The villain probably didn't realize what I was thinking just now, right? ]

[But if he didn't see it, what was the reason for the mischievous smile on his lips? ]

[Ahhh, I can't think about this anymore! Since the villain didn't say anything, I'll just pretend nothing happened! ]

Xun Niannian quickly adjusted her mood and smiled brightly at Chen Lianhe.

An excited voice said, "Really? That's great! I knew my father was innocent! He is such an honest man, how could he do such a thing! He was definitely wronged!"

Xun Nian Nian was indeed very excited and very happy at the same time.

The fact that Chen Lianhe could say these words to her showed that he already had enough evidence in his hands to prove that Minister Xun was innocent.

"What have you found out? Can you tell me a little bit?"

Xun Nian Nian looked at Chen Lianhe with a little more eagerness.

In fact, Xun Niannian always had some doubts about this trip to Lingjun.

She has always been suspicious. Did Chen Lianhe really bring her here to investigate a case?

Especially after arriving in Ling County, she had no idea whether Chen Lianhe had gone to investigate the case.

Now all the doubts in Xun Nian Nian's heart have finally dissipated.

Chen Lianhe did not lie to her, he really came to investigate the case!

Xun Niannian's gaze towards Chen Lianhe also became complicated again.

From what we can see now, the case of Xun Shangshu's corruption may really have nothing to do with the villain...

But doesn’t the book say that he is the real person behind the scenes?

At this moment, Xun Nian Nian was confused and puzzled.

"Do you remember what happened on the day we first came to Lingjun?" Chen Lianhe still did not directly answer Xun Niannian's question, but asked her back after thinking carefully.

Xun Niannian nodded: "Of course I remember."

She doesn't have amnesia.

How could she forget so quickly what happened a few days ago?

"The Japanese king ordered his men to arrest Magistrate Zhao's nephew Zhao Yu, and later found out that Magistrate Zhao also had some problems. Although this guy is not a high-ranking official, he is an out-and-out corrupt official!"

Chen Lianhe has always hated corrupt officials, so when he said this, a rare stern look flashed in his deep eyes.

This made Xun Niannian think of the author's description of Chen Lianhe in the original book.

It is said that he is gentle and elegant in daily life, and people will like him at first sight. However, he is ruthless and impartial when handling cases, which makes people afraid of him.

Xun Niannian was wondering at the time what it would look like if these two incompatible temperaments were mixed on the same face.

At this moment, Xun Nian Nian could finally roughly imagine it.

Although Chen Lianhe is not intimidating at the moment, his stern expression and awe-inspiring look are probably not much different from his usual appearance when he is handling cases.

It has to be said that although Chen Lianhe looks gentle and elegant, his stern face, as cold as ice, can indeed make people feel afraid.

However, the mixture of these two temperaments on his exquisite and handsome face does not look awkward at all.

This is probably because Chen Lianhe is a two-faced person from the inside out!

Two-faced man?

Hearing this word, Chen Lianhe's handsome eyebrows couldn't help but frown.

Aren’t people multifaceted?

Isn't this a perfectly normal thing?

Why do we need to use this word to describe him?

It seems like he is the only one who is two-faced!

How many people in this world don’t have several faces?

He just didn't believe that his fourth brother Chen Lianmo didn't have several faces!

Xun Niannian couldn't hear what Chen Lianhe was thinking, but she could feel that Chen Lianhe's mood seemed to have become worse.

Of course, Xun Nian Nian didn’t think much about it.

After all, he seemed to be in a bad mood before the meal.

Hey, the case of Xun Shangshu has been solved, but Chen Lianhe is in a bad mood? Why is that?
