Detective Ghost Empress

223 chasing after his wife

Liu Fei Fei did not make a move, she simply clung onto the robe of Zhai Tianyu as she rubbed her face against the bright vermillion robe and then said, ” Give me a moment, I just want to suck up a little more.”

She seemed to be enjoying the feeling of rubbing against Zhai Tianyu but contrary to her, Zhai Tianyu who was being rubbed against was on the verge of fainting from the chills. Every time Liu Fei Fei rubbed against him, he would shudder like he was being electrocuted ——

” My queen do something!” In the end, he couldn’t withstand the feeling of being rubbed against by Liu Fei Fei and then turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who sighed and then turned to look at the ghost who did not seem too fond of getting off Zhai Tianyu’s robe.

Seeing that the woman was not going to listen to her, Liu Hui Ying strode over to where Liu Fei Fei was and then caught hold of the back of her collar, unlike Zhai Tianyu who could only see ghosts, Liu Hui Ying could touch and hold them. This was why she was able to drag Liu Fei Fei off Zhai Tianyu with ease and dragged Liu Fei Fei to a corner, where the ghostly woman glared at Liu Hui Ying and said with a pout, ” You …you are just jealous of me! Aren’t you?”

” No, I just don’t fancy dying in a locked tomb,” Liu Hui Ying deadpanned, of course, worst come to worst she will simply explode the entire tomb where she was locked but if possible she would very much like her life-saving talisman to continue breathing. ” And did you not say that you wanted to go and investigate who and why killed you ?”

Liu Fei Fei immediately stood up from the ground and then looked at Liu Hui Ying with a complicated look in her eyes. ” But didn’t you say that you were not going to help me? Why are you suddenly willing to do so?”

” That was before but now I want to investigate, why? You don’t want to?” Liu Hui Ying did not tell Liu Fei Fei that her nanny has promised her that she will give all the savings that Liu Fei Fei has saved till the day she was alive.

Liu Fei Fei was very much suspicious of the sudden grace that was being handed to her but Liu Hui Ying was the only person who could help her, even though she did not fancy going to the underworld for reincarnation, she wanted to see who was the one behind her murder.

“Fine,” even though she was suspicious of the reason why Liu Hui Ying was willing to help her, Liu Fei Fei decided that she was going to let Liu Hui Ying do her thing, anyway as long as she did not have to pay for anything, she was not bothered by anything at all.

.....

Liu Hui Ying nodded before she turned to look at Zhai Tianyu who was standing behind her and then stretched out her hand. ” Now it is your turn, hand me a gold tael for taking her off your body.”

” You want a golden tael to take a ghost off my body?” Zhai Tianyu looked at his wife in bewilderment, why was it that she was such a money grubber? His aunt has given her the mine that had iron ore in it and Liu Hui Ying was already thinking about how to make money out of that mine but she was now acting like this, what kind of money grubber was she in her past life? Did she not even have enough money to eat?

Zhai Tianyu was very much concerned about his wife who seemed to have suddenly become a very poor person in his eyes.

Liu Hui Ying did not know what he was thinking in his head when she saw that he was not paying her money. She frowned and said, ” You don’t want to pay? Should I ask her to latch onto you again?”

As she asked about this, she turned to Liu Fei Fei but was stopped by Zhai Tianyu who said, ” Wait for a second, I never said that I will not pay!”

He immediately took a gold tael out of his personal pocket and then handed it to Liu Hui Ying who clutched it in her hand and then smiled at Zhai Tianyu. ” Thank you for your patronage.”

Then she turned to look at Liu Fei Fei and said, ” come on, let us go and catch the culprit who was behind your murder.”

She turned on her heel and then walked out of the room while Liu Fei Fei and Jia Li followed her along with Li Gang and Grandma Lan Fen, only Zhai Tianyu who was stunned stayed where he was standing and then said, ” My queen? Are you going to go out in your night clothes? My Queen? MY QUEEN!”

…

He realised that Liu Hui Ying was not going to respond to him which was why he immediately chased her making sure that she will not get out of the courtyard wearing her night clothes but he was still a step too late and Liu Hui Ying who was already charging ahead was already out of the courtyard while the guard who stood on either side of the door was staring at her in surprise not knowing where to put their eyes.

” Dear lord this woman!” Zhai Tianyu was speechless when he saw that Liu Hui Ying was acting so tactless, he immediately rushed inside and got long of the small wardrobe that was sitting in the corner of the room before he rushed after Liu Hui Ying like his entire existence was on fire.

Qui Ai went to grab something to eat with Nanny Gong when the two of them returned the sight that they saw was of his majesty running with Liu Hui Ying’s robe in his hands.

” Nanny Gong, didn’t the rule states that his majesty should never run?” Qui asked Nanny Gong who was standing by her side with a shocked look on her face.

” That is indeed the rule, little Ai.”
