Chapter 271: Murder
Ye Shuo came at the right time, as Ye Xun was at home when he arrived.
“You seem to be free, but things are going haywire outside. Didn’t you say you just got an errand? Why didn’t you go today?”
At that time, Ye Xun was practising calligraphy in the study. When he heard the noise outside, his hands trembled and the words he wrote were almost ruined.
“Tsk, the word ‘静’ is written very well.” Ye Shuo looked down and couldn’t help but praise him. Unconsciously, the young man in front of him had grown from a teenager to a real adult.
Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Ye Xun shouted helplessly: “Uncle Jiu.”
“Uncle Jiu, next time you come in, could you please give me a heads up or ask someone to let me know? It’s really scary.”
Ye Shuo didn’t care: “What’s the matter?”
Ye Xun had long been accustomed to his lazy behaviour and was now too lazy to correct it. He carefully lifted the word “静” and looked at it carefully. Still not satisfied, Ye Xun crumpled it into a ball and threw it aside.
As he threw the ball, he said, “The court has been in a mess lately, and the superiors couldn’t take care of me, so they asked me to come back first.”
