Having served as the Lady of the House for over a decade, Shi Lu naturally cultivated a sense of authority. Upon hearing her voice, the maid immediately stopped hesitating and slowly said, "I saw Qiu Sizheng carrying back a woman's corpse, and that corpse seemed to be... Lady Han Yue."
Upon hearing this, Shi Lu's expression changed dramatically, and she stood up from her chair with a start, asking in surprise, "Did you see clearly?"
In fact, it wasn't just Shi Lu; Yuan Shao in the hall also reacted strongly upon hearing this, turning his head to look at the maid, his pupils filled with suspicion and inquiry.
Under the intense gaze of the mother and son, the maid grew somewhat nervous but carefully recalled the scene she had just seen outside the mansion's gate, nodding nonetheless.
"Lady Han Yue had visited the mansion many times before; Xiaoru had seen her, saw clearly just now, Xiaoru is ninety percent sure that the corpse is her."
