Chapitre 400: Chapter 399: Killing a Man

No matter whether this incident was considered important or not, it at least indicated one thing - someone was already jumping the gun.

The grand re-opening of Hua Manlou had only occurred a few days earlier, and already it had been targeted. She was aware of the saying 'the shot hits the bird with its head out', and she had prepared for it. For Hua Manlou to thrive, it was natural to get some attention; what she didn't expect was that it had come so fast.

Seems like early preparations are indeed necessary.

While she was thinking, she heard Shulan's voice from outside, "The master is back."

Xin He rose to welcome him, "You're back?"

These days, Marquis Mu Houchu had been unusually busy. It seemed that there were significant upheavals in the capital, making it difficult for him to have free time.

Mu Houchu's lips curved slightly as he casually wrapped his arm around her waist, "What, missed me?"

Xin He glaring at him lightly. This man, always joking around.
