After hearing the report from Chao Bai’s subordinate, she decided to investigate the background of the Li family’s man.

Chao Bai naturally saw through Kong Rui’s thoughts, but he didn’t point it out directly. He waved his hand and asked his subordinates to leave before saying to Kong Rui, “No matter what you do, be careful.”

“Just tell me if you need my help,” Chao Bai emphasized again.

Kong Rui gave Chao Bai a deep look before curling her lips and saying, “I didn’t know you had so many subordinates!”

Chao Bai lowered his head slightly without answering. Then, he coughed lightly and handed a small medicine bottle to Kong Rui. “This is a pill for disguise. Take it with you.”

“A single pill can last for seven days. If…” Chao Bai said after a pause, “Keep it for yourself in case of emergencies.”

Kong Rui could tell that Chao Bai was implying something, but she didn’t continue asking.

“I’ll take good care of myself. Don’t worry!” Kong Rui smiled, as if to reassure Chao Bai.

Chao Bai still looked troubled, as if he wasn’t relieved by Kong Rui’s words.

Kong Rui couldn’t stand this atmosphere, so she stood up to walk out. “Tong Sheng has been taken away by the Li family. I still have some other things to do. If there’s anything…”

“Let’s talk later!” Kong Rui said as she opened the door and walked out.

At the door, a young servant was sweeping the floor with a broom. When he saw the door open, he didn’t seem surprised. He smiled at Kong Rui and said, “Miss, are you going out?”

Kong Rui nodded, but didn’t say anything else. When she walked past the servant, the servant looked into the room and saw Chao Bai raise his chin slightly in Kong Rui’s direction.

The servant immediately nodded and put the broom aside before following Kong Rui.

After Kong Rui walked out of Fragrant Garden, she walked towards the Li family’s residence. She had only taken a few steps when she sensed someone following her.

That person’s aura was very clear, as if he had no intention of hiding his whereabouts.

He wasn’t stalking her?

After Kong Rui turned around, she saw the servant from before following behind her. Upon seeing Kong Rui turn around to look at him, he even smiled at her.

Kong Rui raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, “Did your master send you?”

Seeing how straightforward Kong Rui was, the servant had no intention of lying. “Miss, Young Master asked me to protect you and listen to your orders.”

Kong Rui shrugged indifferently and turned to continue walking in the direction of the Li family’s home.

When she walked out of the Li family’s residence, Kong Rui saw that the streets around the Li family were already heavily guarded. Many palace guards were lined up on the streets.

Kong Rui pretended to pass by and didn’t stay near the Li family’s residence for long.

The servant followed half a step behind Kong Rui.

Kong Rui walked all the way to Tianxiang Restaurant and was about to go in to hear some useful news when she saw Li Han walking over with a maid, Xiao Cui.

Kong Rui subconsciously turned around to avoid them. Only when Li Han walked past did she remember that she no longer looked like Li Ling.

Li Han looked weak as she slowly walked towards the inner hall of Tianxiang Restaurant with Xiao Cui.

Kong Rui couldn’t help but click her tongue. She was already so sick, but she still came out to drink tea?

Before Kong Rui could complain, Li Han had already coughed hard. She stood at the entrance of Tianxiang Restaurant and spat out a mouthful of blood before walking into the teahouse with Xiao Cui’s help.

The servant behind Kong Rui couldn’t help but whisper, “Will this lady die if she doesn’t drink tea for a day?”

When Kong Rui heard this, she couldn’t help but purse her lips. She didn’t think that Li Han had specifically come to drink tea.

As expected, when she walked into the inner hall of Tianxiang Restaurant, she saw Li Han walking towards a private room on the second floor.

Kong Rui saw that someone was already waiting in the private room, but she couldn’t see who it was.

She didn’t choose a private room. Instead, she found a seat near the center of the hall and sat down.

There were already many people in the teahouse at this time. As soon as Kong Rui sat down, two gorgeously dressed young ladies walked in with four maidservants.

“Where is everyone? Are the servers all dead?” One of the tall and strong maidservants raised her voice as she shouted arrogantly.
