"Pfft." At this moment, Feng Qingge seemed to see the woman in front of the red-light district. She looked exactly like this. Just then, she took a sip of tea and accidentally spat it out when she heard her words.
"Cough, cough..." The tea choked her throat, causing her to cough involuntarily.
Seeing this, Mo Linyuan raised his hand and patted her back to ease her cough. "Are you feeling better?"
"Thank you." She awkwardly dodged his hand to avoid the hairs on her back standing on end.
"Oh dear, young master, are you alright?" The lady in red stepped forward, looking at Feng Qingge carefully with an embarrassed expression. She thought her stunning beauty had surprised this young master.
"Ahem, ladies, I was invited by Master Lin to investigate the mansion and exorcise the ghost, so I hope you ladies will cooperate." Feng Qingge looked at the ladies sitting in the room, slightly curled her lips, revealing her sharp canine teeth, cute yet alluring.
So the ladies below were all captivated and kept answering "yes".
So, Feng Qingge spent the whole day getting information from the ladies, but most of them said the same thing as Lin Yong had said: they heard noises at night.
However, a few people heard the noise and thought it was a mouse or a stray cat, so they got up to check. Unexpectedly, a white shadow floated past their eyes, and they were so frightened that they fainted. When they woke up the next day, the room was in a complete mess.
Some even saw faces bleeding from all seven orifices, which was quite frightening.
However, no one was directly attacked; it was just some small tricks to scare people and mess up the rooms, or trample the garden and break all the flowers.
This doesn't match Feng Qingge's earlier guess that it was a powerful ghost; it's more like a mischievous child.
He returned to the courtyard with these questions in mind and dismissed all the ladies. The women chattered together like a flock of chickens and ducks.
They say three women make a drama, and it's certainly true.
Back in the courtyard, Feng Qingge still couldn't figure it out, so she talked to Mo Linyuan about it to see what his opinion was.
However, it was pointless for her to say anything. Mo Linyuan didn't understand anything about ghosts, and he never paid attention to children, so he couldn't give her any advice.
"However, there is one person who is quite strange." Although he can't offer any brilliant insights on that matter, he is not stumped by anything else.
Just now, Feng Qingge had been asking the ladies about the ghost story. Most of them had genuine expressions of fear or disgust on their faces, but only one person was different.
"Strange, who is it?" Feng Qingge frowned, she couldn't remember anyone being strange.
Mo Linyuan sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, his brows furrowed slightly, yet relaxed. "That woman in dark blue clothes, it seems to be the Third Madam. She said she only heard a sound and didn't see anything," he reminded Feng Qingge of the woman's attire.
"Oh, I remember now, it's that woman who looks so delicate and speaks in a soft voice, the kind of person who would frighten you if you raised your voice to her." Feng Qingge clearly remembered this person, because she had never seen such a woman before, who looked like she could be blown away by the wind.
"..." Mo Linyuan remained silent, his cold and hard features exuding a captivating charm from within, his eyes like a dark pool.
"Didn't notice." He glanced at her quickly, then lowered his eyes again, looking at the teacup in his hand, and said coldly.
"Uh... okay, then what's wrong with that Third Madam?" She still couldn't understand what was strange about the woman who spoke in such a low voice.
