Just as Chu Meng darted into the room, their gazes met, and for an instant, Chu Meng was stunned. Why did things seem not quite as she expected? Why hadn't Long Yan fainted?
In the instant he saw Chu Meng, Long Yan completely understood her intentions. What exactly was this girl up to?
He reached out and grabbed a handful of powder from the air, sniffing it carefully. With a head full of black lines, he stared at the stunned Chu Meng.
"Why did you wrap realgar in the envelope? Are you taking me for Lady Bai?"

If such things were easily purchasable, he wouldn't be a Lang Zhong; anyone could knock out another and rob them.
