Lord Chu's Wife Is Wild Chapter 11 - Isn't She That Beggar?

Chapter 11 - Isn't She That Beggar?

"You… You killed Lu Sheng?"

Lu Dahua suddenly raised his voice, jolting the shocked villagers back to their senses.

The way everyone looked at Madam Liu had changed. Fury appeared in their eyes.

"That girl was so obedient! She did everything you instructed without complaining."

"Yeah! How could she kill such a good child? She's really heartless!"

"I wonder if she killed her ex-husband too."

…

Everyone pointed at Madam Liu and rebuked her.

Madam Liu was completely dumbfounded. She collapsed onto the ground and widened her eyes, unable to say anything.

"My Lord, you were right! She's the murderer!"

Even in his fury, Chu Yun threw an admiring glance at Chu Sihan.

His lord's suspicions had never been wrong before.

Chu Sihan coldly stared at Madam Liu and ordered in a deep voice, "Ask Constable w.a.n.g and the rest to come back from the hill and tell them that we've already found the murderer."

"Okay!"

Lu Sheng stood at the side and watched them. After seeing Chu Yun walk toward the hill, she climbed over the fence on the other side.

When she was sure no one was around her, she tore off the Invisibility Talisman and sat at the foot of the hill.

When she heard footsteps, she suddenly stood up and slowly walked toward the village.

When Constable w.a.n.g and Chu Yun, who were walking down the hill, saw her back, they felt that she looked slightly familiar. However, as they were in a hurry to capture the culprit, they did not pay her much attention.

Constable w.a.n.g and the other guards hurried past Lu Sheng.

She was speechless.

How can no one notice me?

Since I'm appearing here with such a disheveled look, shouldn't they ask me who I am?

They had gone to search for her in the hills for so long, yet when she came out, no one noticed her.

Silently scoffing, she walked faster and followed them.

When Constable w.a.n.g arrived at the village, he immediately ordered his men to capture Madam Liu and Lu Ning.

Lu Ning had already lost her mind. When she saw that she was being captured, she screamed and bit the guards holding her.

If one closely listened, they could hear her repeatedly mumbling, "Spare me, I didn't kill her!"

"Where's the corpse?"

Lu Dahua asked Madam Liu with eyes red from anger.

My five hundred taels!

Madam Liu shook her head in fear. "I don't know! I didn't kill her!"

"How dare you deny it at this juncture?" Constable w.a.n.g scoffed.

Chu Yun looked at Chu Sihan and asked, "Lord, what should we do?"

"Take her and turn her in to the official county magistrate so that he can ask her where the girl's corpse is."

As he spoke, Chu Sihan could not help but secretly sigh.

He had heard that the girl was just sixteen. At such a beautiful age, she died just like that. How pitiful.

He had also heard that her parent's decision even cost her the chance to marry her beloved.

Everything's too late now!

All he could do to make amends was to find her corpse and bury her.

"Lu Sheng!"

While Madam Liu and Lu Ning were being escorted out of the gate, someone suddenly yelled in surprise.

Everyone stopped what they were doing.

Even Madam Liu, who was fearfully struggling, and Lu Ning, who was in a state of stupor, looked to the side.

They all saw Lu Sheng, who was supposed to be 'dead,' just standing there.

Lu Sheng pretended to look at them with an empty gaze. When she saw Madam Liu and Lu Ning, she suddenly yelled out in fear and knelt while hugging her head. Her entire body shuddered.

Everyone could clearly hear her trembling voice as she yelled, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

"Ghost! A ghost!"

Lu Ning yelled out in shock. Her eyes rolled backward, and she immediately fainted.

After a momentary shock, Madam Liu suddenly became delighted. "Sheng Sheng, you're still alive! That's great!"

As she spoke, she tried to break free from the guards' grip.

However, Lu Sheng suddenly leaped up and hid behind the crowd.

"Help me! She wants to kill me! She used the blanket to suffocate me and she even… she even threw me into the lake. I almost drowned to death!"

When everyone saw Lu Sheng's fearful gaze and the tears streaming down her cheeks, their hearts ached for her. They found her extremely pitiful.

A few women even s.h.i.+elded her behind their backs and consoled her, trying to block her from Madam Liu.

When Chu Yun saw Lu Sheng, he was surprised. "Lord, isn't she that beggar?"

Chu Sihan was also stunned, albeit he didn't show it on the surface.

He never expected the missing Miss Lu to be that helpful female beggar.
