Chen An didn't think he would encounter any obstacles, but Pei Xiu actually offered to help investigate, which was really unbelievable.
Based on his experience of knowing Pei Xiu over the past year, this guy is clearly a lazy slacker who likes to be as lazy as possible.
He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Pei, do you really want to investigate? Why not ask someone else to do it..."
Seeing Chen An's doubtful face, Pei Xiu twitched his lips: "I said I would check, so I will definitely check. Do you not believe me?"
Chen An quickly shook his head: "I dare not."
He hesitated for a moment, but decided to trust the other party: "Then please hurry up, Mr. Pei. I'm in a hurry."

Pei Xiu took a breath and said, "Probe again! Report again! How bold is this county governor to dare to do this again... especially when the dragon is missing in Dongting."
He watched Chen An leave, his expression changing constantly.
"A second Chen Kuang? There's absolutely no such coincidence! I never thought that after searching for so long, I would find it without any effort."
Pei Xiu thought of Chen An and murmured to himself:
"This kid is really lucky..."
…
Chen Kuang followed the maid to the guest room, knocked on the door, then pushed it open and entered, placing the food box in his hand on the table.
In the room, Shen Meinan was lying on the table playing with a teacup, while Qingcuo was standing against the wall, silently.
Chu Wenruo is taking care of the unconscious little princess.
Hearing the noise, she turned around in surprise.
Chen Kuang took out the food and said with a smile, "Come and try my cooking."
