The ghost in the ever-burning lantern had a special ability, which was to control the smoke coming out of its spout.
The smoke was like eyes, which could help her see the surroundings even though she had difficulty moving. But as the distance got farther and farther, the smoke also became thinner and thinner, and her ability would gradually disappear.
It could probably detect situations within a 20-meter radius with the lantern as the center.
She was a good cook when she was alive and was curious about what modern, wealthy people would cook, so she looked into the kitchen through a thin wisp of transparent smoke that came out of the box.
The kitchen was filled with a dazzling array of ingredients, and it was overwhelming. There were all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and the sea, including everything that flew in the sky, walked on the ground, and swam in the waters.
She took a look and was about to go back when she heard a shocking secret. She immediately retracted the smoke and reported the news to An Rugu.

[It cannot be eaten.]
An Rugu’s eyes changed slightly, and she raised her gaze, seeming to be looking at people casually.
The braised lion’s head was casually served on the table, and Su Zijian had the same dish in front of him.
The person who intended to poison people should not be Su Zijian nor Su Sisi. So the only people left was…
She glanced at Father Su who was sitting in the chair.
Although the guests were asked to start eating, Father Su did not touch the delicious food on the table. He just drank his tea quietly, looking calm and relaxed.
There was a bowl of soup next to Mother Su. It seemed that the soup was specially made for her. The soup bowl was very delicate and small, different from the one on the table.
Mother Su was keenly aware of An Rugu’s gaze and turned to face her with a smile, “Miss An, is the food not to your liking?”
An Rugu was not flustered when she saw that she was noticed. She stared at the soup in front of Mother Su calmly and said, “Excuse me, what kind of soup is that? It looks very appetizing to me, but there is none on the table.”
“This,” Mother Su’s expression did not change, as if gentleness was engraved into her bones, “I am not in good health. I have to drink a bowl of health tonic before meals every day to stimulate my appetite. I will ask the auntie to bring you one.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Mother Su raised her hand and beckoned the auntie over, “Give Miss An a bowl of health tonic.”
The auntie agreed, turned around and left; she came back with the health tonic not long after.
Seeing that the other party was already suspicious, An Rugu calmly picked up the spoon, scooped up some of the braised lion’s head stew, and took a sip.
When Mother Su saw that she finally drank some of the stew, she felt a little relieved and drank her own health tonic gracefully.
Su Zijian had already eaten most of the braised lion’s head. After hearing them talk, he put down his chopsticks, blinked his eyes, and asked curiously, “Mom, why don’t you eat your favorite whitebait egg custard?”
Did the fact that Su Sisi had a party today really make their parents unhappy?
He secretly thought that this was not good. He was afraid that his parents might have said that they forgave his sister, but they were, in fact, still angry.
In order to calm his mother down, he quickly showed his filial piety and picked up a small portion of whitebait egg custard and placed it in front of Mother Su, sitting on his right.
Father Su sat at the center of the dining table, with his family on either side and the guests opposite him.
Mother Su paused and patted her son’s hand; she smiled lovingly, “I know.”
Su Zijian saw that his father was only drinking tea without moving his chopsticks, so he asked curiously, “Dad, why aren’t you eating?”
Su Sisi also noticed this and was very nervous. She immediately said considerately, “Dad, the braised pork cooked by the chef today is delicious and will definitely suit your taste.”
Father Su seemed to be immersed in his own world, turning a deaf ear to his children’s words and just drinking his tea.
His cold attitude made his two children anxious.
Su Zijian and Su Sisi looked at each other secretly, thinking about how to make their father happy.
However, at this moment, Su Zijian felt dizzy, and Su Sisi’s beautiful face in front of him began to get distorted.
He held up his head with one hand and said in a puzzled voice, “Sisi, why do you have two heads?”
The next second, there was a loud noise.
“Bang!”
Su Zijian fell weakly on the dining table. He had no strength left in his body, and the tableware was smashed into a mess where he fell.
“Ah!!”
Su Sisi screamed in fear and quickly stood up. She put her hands on his shoulders and shook him hard, “Older Brother, what’s wrong with you!”
However, soon afterwards, she was overwhelmed by a feeling of dizziness and by a strong wave of sleepiness, so severe that she could not open her eyelids.
The strength in her body gradually drained away, as if she had drunk too much alcohol and blacked out, and she fell to the ground limply.
Shang Yue: “???”
How come the two people across her suddenly fainted while eating?
There was a piece of steak in her mouth, and her cheeks were stuffed so full that she couldn’t swallow it or spit it out. She was frozen for a moment, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, there was some noise coming from the side.
Shang Yue turned her head to look, and her jaw almost dropped.
An Rugu was rubbing her temples, her head nodding slightly. Finally, as if she could no longer hold on, she gently fell on the table and seemed to fall asleep.
How come even An Rugu…
