The guards did not dare to even breathe loudly when they entered the beautys room.

However, that would not prevent them from conducting the usual investigation as professionals.

The guards circled past the folding screen and snuck a look at the bed.

Half of Beauty Chens shoulder was laid bare, clear for everyone to see.

Why Why did all of you barge in here? It seemed like Chen Qiyu did not expect them to enter all the way to the inner room as she screamed and pulled her clothes up frantically.

The guards could hardly focus as they felt something warm flow out of their nostrils.

The main guard in charge pulled himself together as he quickly ordered everyone to back out while he stood behind the folding screen to apologize. We did not mean to offend. We implore Beauty Chen not to sentence us to any punishment.

Chen Qiyu roared in frustration, Get out, all of you! How am I supposed to face the Crown Prince now?

The guards gave a start as they all hurried back out the door.

However, the memory of the fair skin they just glimpsed flashed in their minds.

Such fair skin!

Meier quietly sighed with relief once everyone had left the courtyard. She quickly shut the courtyard doors tight before returning to the main room.

Chen Qiyu had gotten out of bed and was standing in the room.

Chen Xuping had also left the bed with his head lowered.

Thank you, he said awkwardly.

Chen Qiyu shook her head and said lightly, Its nothing. Im just giving a helping hand.

She paused before asking, I overheard the guards saying that Lu Yunshuang is injured. Whats going on? You didnt actually hurt her, did you?

Chen Xuping did not deny it. He replied with regret in his voice, I did, but unfortunately, I wasnt able to kill her.

Chen Qiyu was astonished.

Even though Lin Qingyuan had told her that Chen Xuping recently found out about how Lu Yunshuang was using him like a tool, Chen Qiyu had never thought that he would muster such determination to come seeking revenge on her.

Chen Qiyu had a.s.sumed that even after finding out the truth, he would only blame himself for being stupid and would never be able to get angry at Lu Yunshuang.

After all, he was once completely obsessed with her.

He would do anything for Lu Yunshuang, even sacrificing the Duke Chen Family.

When it came to this older brother of hers, it could not be said that Chen Qiyu did not harbor any ill emotions toward him. Even putting aside the fact that they have never liked each other growing up, the current situation of the Duke Chen Mansion being seized was enough for her to feel utmost hatred toward him.

It was his fault that her parents had to suffer the hards.h.i.+ps of wandering from place to place at their old age.

However, when she saw how he tried to leave to avoid getting her into trouble, her heart softened.

It is unfortunate, she said softly after a while.

Chen Xuping glanced at her and felt suddenly remorseful. I have never treated you well in the past. Im sorry.

Chen Qiyu looked at him in surprise. She had never expected him to apologize.

It took her a while before she managed a cold sn.i.g.g.e.r. Theres no need for an apology. You may have looked down on me in the past, but Ive never exactly looked up to you either. Did you know that whenever I look at youthe honorable heir presumptive of the Duke Chen Familyfollowing behind Lu Yunshuang like a pitiful dog wagging its tail, I can barely stop myself from laughing? Ive made fun of you quite often in private.

Chen Xuping looked slightly frustrated. I was a fool not to see Lu Yunshuangs true colors.

Chen Qiyu said nothing; the old Chen Xuping was indeed stupid.

Chen Xuping suddenly remembered something and said imploringly, Qiyu, regarding your abduction into the brothel, I had no idea about it. Lu Yunshuang had it done behind my back. I

He wanted to say that no matter how much he disliked his younger sister, no matter how much of a jerk he was, he would never have harmed his sisterhis flesh and bloodthis way..
