As he stepped outside, Huo Er felt increasingly nervous. Just now, Mr. Chen seemed to have been looking at some domestic reports on the incident where the Young Madam was accused of killing Lady Wangyue.
Huo Er wasn't sure if he was overthinking things. The way Mr. Chen looked at him seemed a bit off, and also, that Soldier who had just come out... what did Mr. Chen want with him?
Huo Er hesitated, originally wanting to find Fu Dongliu, but feeling uneasy and fearing exposure, he decided to return to his own tent.
That night, while Kang Chen was having his meal, that Soldier came in to report again.
"Mr. Chen, tonight Commander Fu got his own meal. He took twice his usual portion, and moreover, he didn't have his guard tidy up his affairs inside. Would this be considered odd?"
Kang Chen paused while eating, picked up his lunchbox, and took a sip of soup, "Certainly considered odd. What about Huo Er?"
