Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 494: A not so pleasant investigation

Liu Hui Ying rolled her eyes as she finished throwing the silencing charm at Li Gang, she then turned to look at the room where she was asked to wait and narrowed her eyes with suspicion. Why did Liu Dong Ming ask her to wait here? Was he planning something? If so then what?

With her disguise it was impossible for him to realise that it was her, so what made him treat her this well?

The five ghosts behind her did not dare to say that they were the ones who gave her away. If Liu Hui Ying found out that they were the ones who were caught by Liu Dong Ming, she would roast them like a chicken on a stick with fire burning underneath.

The five ghosts remained silent not daring to speak. They were not only scared of Liu Hui Ying but they were equally scared of Liu Dong Ming as well, if that man put them on his hit list then they were afraid that they might not be able to survive.

Even though they were dead.

Just as Liu Hui Ying was anticipating the next move of Liu Dong Ming, the sliding door of the hall was pushed open and in came a man dressed in a fervent red robe with matching pants. Liu Hui Ying who was expecting something terrible to happen was left stunned as she stared at the man who was dressed like a flaming red clown.

" Good evening to Lord Chi," Liu Dong Ming greeted Liu Hui Ying with a stern look on his face, though he was trying to smile, his lips were used to say nothing but harsh words which was why even though he tried his best to smile nothing happened.

In fact, he looked quite pitiful with his attempts to smile.

" All right," said Liu Dong Ming after a long pause causing Liu Hui Ying to heave a sigh of relief. When Liu Dong Ming saw that Liu Hui Ying had heaved a sigh of relief, he was quite happy. It looked like all of his steps were working in the right direction, Liu Hui Ying was now relaxed in his presence this was good.

He then looked at Liu Hui Ying and asked, " What do you think of doing Lord Chi? I mean many believe that this case involves pirates and that the Liu family joined hands with the pirates to keep the million or so taels for themselves. Though it's pitifully naive that others are willing to believe that the Liu family will fight for such a small amount the evidence is against us.

Do you know what kind of task you are taking? You will be pushing yourself in the front line and the Ji family will not like it."

Liu Hui Ying gulped when she heard Liu Dong call a million taels a small amount. It made her wonder just how rich the Liu family really was, however, she did not question it instead she nodded solemnly as she answered, " I know. But my benefits are closely tied with the Liu family which is why I would like to do everything in my power to make sure that I will prove the innocence of the Liu family."

What a joke, if something happened to this family then surely Liu Hui Ying would lose her crown of the Empress and the...then —— that fcker Ji Yang and his family would definitely cause trouble for her.

She could not allow that to happen!

While Liu Hui Ying was determined not to lose her crown, Liu Dong Ming on the other hand was touched upon seeing the loyalty of his daughter. Sure enough, he taught her well.

The ghost aides: "..." I don't know what you are thinking but it's wrong!
