Chapter 364: Shocking
This group of officials?!
They came to the village at night. What happened?!
The villagers were extremely terrified.
They saw the county magistrate, who was wearing his official robe, walking to the Guan family’s house with a group of officials.
“Did the Guan family commit a crime?”
Auntie Beizi let out a shrill cry in the crowd.
“What crime? Look, Guan Chibei and his wife are walking among the officials. They’re walking beside the county magistrate. They are not tied up by the officials. What crime would they have committed?”
Some villagers immediately rebutted.
As expected, the villagers watched helplessly as Guan Chibei led the officials into the Guan family’s house.
Leng Han followed as well. He did not expect the restaurant’s owners to live in a house in the mountains. The courtyard was so simple.
They walked to Guan Chibei and Ye Lulu’s house and saw a black panther lying at the door not far away. When it heard the sound, its golden eyes immediately rushed over.
Lin Yuchen and the officials saw a black panther running over ferociously. Needless to say, the officials could not help but lean back… This wild beast was too dangerous. Everyone was shocked.
Even Lin Yuchen was shocked as he looked at the black panther running over. It was difficult for him not to be afraid.
The black panther ran to Guan Chibei and stopped instantly. It looked up and looked at Guan Chibei with its golden eyes.
It meant to tell him that it had brought the children back. Why was he only home now?
When they saw the black panther, they became sure that the youngest prince was here. Leng Han was the first to flash forward and push open the door.
The group of people followed.
They saw that this was an ordinary house. It was quite simple but there were many things arranged in an orderly manner. On the neat bed, three incomparably exquisite babies were crawling. They were very energetic, as if it was their daily playtime.
In front of him…
He stood there with a stunned expression and a slightly reserved attitude. His face was filled with helplessness, but he did not know where to go, so the youngest prince stood weakly.
Lin Yuchen walked in and was speechless.
All the officials were speechless.
Why did this have to happen?
Leng Han quickly walked over. “Youngest prince.”
“You’re here.” The youngest prince, Dongfang Jue, revealed a hint of joy when he saw Leng Han. He felt at ease after seeing someone he could rely on.
“Youngest prince, are you alright?” Lin Yuchen quickly entered and asked the youngest prince. After Dongfang Jue nodded, Lin Yuchen prepared to escort him back.
With this incident tonight and the sky turning dark, they could only talk about it tomorrow. Hence, Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei stayed behind to bid farewell to the youngest prince and Lin Yuchen.
Before the youngest prince left, he seemed to have something to say. He looked at the three babies and the black panther.
The black panther did not run even when it saw so many people. It surrounded Guan Chibei and stood in the house.
This scene increased the officials’ anxiety, and they found it strange at the same time.
Lin Yuchen looked at Guan Chibei deeply and asked, “Did your family raise this panther?”
It was almost obvious.
If this black panther was not an ordinary creature and had saved the life of the youngest prince, the matter would definitely go straight to the heavens. With the imperial family’s style, it was very likely that the emperor would want this black panther. Every emperor liked strange things.
At the thought of this, Ye Lulu’s expression changed.
Guan Chibei said, “No, it lives in the mountains, but it knows us.”
