Chapter 2633: The Arsonist Headed in This Direction

Why did she come here instead of putting out the fire?

Lu Junning elegantly flicked her wide sleeve, the fabric swaying gracefully, accentuating her beauty.

“The arsonist headed in this direction. Someone has intruded into the Lu residence, so I brought people to investigate,” Lu Junning explained, her gaze focused intently on Ning Shu. “Have you seen anyone? They were wearing night attire.”

Ning Shu quickly shook her head. “I haven’t seen anyone.”

“Have you seen anyone?” Ning Shu turned to Yuan Xiang, who appeared frightened. “No,” Yuan Xiang replied.

Ning Shu looked around then hurriedly walked over to Lu Junning. “Second Sister, is there truly an assassin?”

Lu Junning turned her head and looked at Ning Shu. “That’s why we need to search your room, to see if the assassin is hiding here.”

Ning Shu nodded repeatedly. “Second Sister, please go ahead and search.”

Fear and uneasiness were etched onto Ning Shu’s face.

Lu Junning gave the order for the servants to search. They combed through the room, rummaging through cabinets, under the bed, and in the bedding, causing quite a mess.

However, their efforts proved fruitless, causing Lu Junning to furrow her brows in frustration.

Carefully, Ning Shu ventured, “Second Sister, maybe the assassin isn’t here?”

“Stay in the room. Father’s study is on fire,” Lu Junning responded, her gaze filled with suspicion as she looked at Ning Shu. With that, she turned and left the room.

Ning Shu curtsied and bid farewell to Lu Junning, her eyes fixed on her until she disappeared from the courtyard.

How did Lu Junning know that someone was headed in this direction? Could it be that someone had spotted her?

Ning Shu instructed Yuan Xiang, “Tidy up the room. I’m going out to have a look.”

“Understood.”

Thick smoke billowed from the study, which was now engulfed in flames. Manservants rushed to douse the fire with buckets of water, while maidservants assisted using basins.

“Come on, hurry!” Lu Yuanfan couldn’t help but express his anxiety. He appeared extremely worried, attempting to rush in several times, only to be deterred by the intensity of the fire.

Impatiently, Lu Yuanfan shouted, “What’s taking so long? Hurry up!”

Ning Shu watched from a distance, opting not to approach Lu Yuanfan. Venturing over there now would most likely make her a target for his frustration.

The fact that the study was on fire should make Lu Yuanfan realize that his belongings were in jeopardy.

Lu Junning and Shen Yichen stood side by side, their faces illuminated by the dancing flames.

They seemed to be engaged in a conversation, and Ning Shu couldn’t shake the feeling that they were casting glances in her direction.

Shen Yichen inquired, “Did you come across anything during the search?”

Lu Junning shook her head. “No, we didn’t find the person in black or any other evidence.”

Shen Yichen cast a glance at Ning Shu. “If there is no evidence, it’s possible that she could be the assassin. I vaguely recall that the assassin appeared shorter in stature, noticeably different from a man’s build.”

“I don’t think it’s her. Lu Yueyun lacks the necessary skills, and she wouldn’t have the audacity to start a fire,” Lu Junning responded, shaking her head.

“Daring speculation, cautious verification. Perhaps what you believe to be impossible is actually possible,” Shen Yichen remarked.

“Out of all your father’s children, only you and her have not encountered any trouble. Even during the incident at Tiantai Temple, it’s conceivable that she was behind it. Both you and Lu Mingxuan faced difficulties, but she didn’t,” Shen Yichen explained.

Lu Junning turned her gaze towards Ning Shu’s direction, feeling somewhat perplexed. Could it be that Lu Mingxuan was also reborn?

If that were the case, why would she be so indifferent to her own husband marrying someone else?

When Li Yu wanted to marry Lu Mingxuan earlier, Lu Yueyun showed no reaction. And even when Li Yu married Lu Yujing, she remained unaffected.

If she were reborn, the situation should be different. There should be intense emotional fluctuations, whether it be love or hate. It should be similar to her own resentment towards Third Prince Shen Hao.
