As she expected, as soon as she entered the room, she heard Mrs. Shen scolding, "You unworthy thing, look what you have done today!"
"Grandpa, why are you so angry? Calm down quickly." Shen Jingci changed her smile and walked forward to pour a cup of tea. "You drink tea first."
"I won't drink it, just leave it alone."
Old Mr. Shen glanced at her sideways, his sharp eyes shot out from his swollen eyelids, and he said with hatred, "How did you tell me at the beginning that you would suppress the Xie family with all your strength! But now, because of the expansion in the south, The Xie family's reputation is rising steadily due to the hospital's treatment of illnesses and saving lives! On the other hand, your failure at the daughter's banquet in the Shen family has led to everything being lost once you make a mistake. Now the charity has been set up, but there is that fool from Dingbei Prince's Palace. With the loyal wood blocking the way, our family won't get a single benefit! That's all, now you don't want to think about how to improve the reputation of the Shen family. Instead, you are chasing the little girl from the Xie family on the street. If you take advantage of it, It’s alright to be reasonable, but in the end you’re ridiculed and you’re not a human being!”
Having said this, Mr. Shen became more and more angry and pointed at Shen Jingci and said, "If you can't keep up with your original promise, then it's time for the Shen family to change! I think your eldest brother is quite good. I have been working steadily in the past few years, but I have managed to do a few decent things."
"Grandpa!" Shen Jingci suddenly felt aggrieved when she heard this, "You can't deny me in such a hurry. Over the years, I have devoted myself to the Shen family and am loyal to the Shen family! Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me. You won’t be disappointed this time!”
"you sure?"
Mr. Shen raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then said coolly, "Girl, you are the one who is going to get married after all. Don't let me down again this time."
"Grandpa, don't worry."
At this point, Shen Jingci gritted her teeth and said, "I will definitely take down the Xie family. They won't be in glory for long!"
"Well, go ahead."
Shen Jingci agreed and then slowly retreated. After returning to her room, she immediately slapped the table hard and then flipped it over to the ground.
Xie Ruzhuo, ever since she met this woman, things have never gone smoothly. Almost everything has been frustrated! But it doesn’t matter, until the last moment, we still don’t know who will win!
As she thought about it, she turned around and walked to the desk, quickly wrote a note, then whistled, tied the note to the pigeon's leg, and then let it fly.
This time, she did not hesitate to use a hidden chess piece to start chaos in the Xie family from within. As long as the Xie family is in chaos, the outside will be easy to break!
When the carriage reached Zhongshan Lane, it suddenly stopped with a "soo". Xie Ruyue was drowsy, but she suddenly woke up and asked, "What's wrong?"
The coachman smiled and said, "No problem, it's just that a carriage happened to pass by. The alley is too narrow, so we have to stop so that the two carriages can pass by carefully."
Hearing this, Xie Ruyue nodded and continued to sit in the car with her eyes closed to rest.
With her eyes closed, she didn't notice that a sharp bamboo pipe was piercing from the rear of the carriage, and a stream of colorless and odorless smoke was slowly sprayed out from inside.
After a while, the carriage continued to move forward. Xie Ruyue was relieved, only to feel sleepy again and her limbs were weak. She tilted her head to the side and fell asleep on the carriage.
At this moment, several men suddenly rushed in from the outskirts of the alley. The leader of them had rough clothes and a long and narrow scar on his face, which looked really scary.
"Hey, you old man, if you are sensible, just get out of here!"
Suddenly a knife was placed on the coachman's neck. He looked at the person tremblingly and said, "Sir, do you want money? I'll give it to you. I'll give it to you!" Second young lady, losing money is a small matter, but losing people is a big deal!
Hearing this, the leading man suddenly smiled ferociously and said, "You're a smart old man, please hand over the money!"
The coachman didn't have much silver with him. After taking out all the silver, the man used the tip of a knife to turn over the broken silver and pick it up. He suddenly kicked the coachman down and said fiercely, "Bah, you just How come you get such a small amount of money? It’s not enough for me to drink! Brothers, beat him up!"
Seeing the coachman being beaten and crying on the ground, the leading man smiled and opened the car curtain.
There was a girl sleeping in the car, with black hair like a waterfall, a small face with a slight smile, skin like gelatin, and bright wrists like jade. Seeing this, the man swallowed hard, smiled obscenely, and said, "Grandma, I really made a profit today!"
With that said, he rushed down the mountain like a tiger, and hugged Xie Ruyue over. When his hand touched the other person's skin, it immediately felt smooth and smooth. The man rolled his Adam's apple involuntarily, his eyes shining, "As expected of a rich lady, those girls in the flower house don't even count as shit!"
When the gangsters outside heard this, they suddenly felt itchy and said, "Boss, after you taste it later, you have to satisfy your greed with the brothers!"
Hearing this, the man immediately sneered, "You have to wait until I can satisfy my craving first!" For such a beautiful woman like a flower, someone actually wants to pay him to destroy her chastity. This kind of cheap thing doesn't happen every day. some!
Xie Ruyue, who was sleeping, was unaware of the situation in front of her and still slept soundly.
At this moment, a sharp blade was suddenly placed on the man's neck. He froze, and then said, "Damn it, you bunch of bastards, your fucking knife touched me!"
"Then why don't you get down?"
A man's voice sounded, low and bloodthirsty. When he spoke, even his voice was unconsciously filled with murderous intent. That is the aura that comes from those who have been on the battlefield for a long time.
The surrounding air seemed to be frozen instantly. The gangster leader was not a fool. He knew immediately that the person coming was not a kind person. He smiled hurriedly and said cheerfully, "Brother, let's talk it over if we have something to say. Are you also interested in this girl? Or should we share it together?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his whole body was suddenly sucked out by a force, and then he was thrown to the ground hard due to inertia.
Only then did the gangster leader clearly see the appearance of the man in front of him. He was dressed in a green shirt and had a jade-like face. However, the hand holding the sword was somewhat rough, and he looked like a martial arts practitioner.
It is Xiao Junhe, the eldest son of Prince Dingnan.
The gangster leader didn't know who he was, but what frightened him the most was that all his brothers fell to the ground, dead or alive!
These changes happened just a moment ago. The gangster leader didn't even know when Xiao Junhe came, and then the situation was reversed in an instant!
"Da, hero, spare your life!" The gangster leader's previous desire has long been replaced by fear. The man in front of him is too ruthless and he cannot afford to offend him!
Xiao Junhe ignored his plea for mercy and just said one word lightly, "Get out!"
After hearing this, the gangster leader felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He didn't care about the brothers on the ground and ran away in a hurry.
Only when the man was no longer seen, Xiao Junhe turned around and raised the curtain of the carriage and asked, "Miss Xie, are you okay?"
However, the woman in the car did not respond at all.
He was stunned for a moment, then opened the curtain, and after detecting her breath, he discovered that her breath was long, as if she was sleeping.
Xiao Junhe couldn't help but shook his head. This woman was really big-hearted. She was almost being molested, yet she could still sleep so soundly.
Xie Ruyue, who was sleeping, felt someone watching her, pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, made a sound, and turned away.
Seeing this, Xiao Junhe sighed a little, jumped out of the car, helped the driver up, and asked, "Old man, can you still drive the car?"
Hearing this, the driver, regardless of the bruises all over his body, got up with difficulty and said, "Thank you brave man for saving me. I can do it."
"That's good, let's go, I'll take you back." Xiao Junhe's temper has always been casual. It was a coincidence that he saved her today, but since he saved her, he must save her to the end.
Because his identity should not be discovered, Xiao Junhe sat in the carriage and guarded Xie Ruyue.
However, the other party's sleeping posture was really inelegant. He actually put his little head directly on his thigh, and even rubbed it a few times, as if he was looking for a comfortable position.
The woman's soft hair unconsciously rubbed against the back of his hand, and Xiao Junhe's heart suddenly felt as if he had been hit by a small beast. Her face was peaceful and beautiful at this time, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she looked exactly like the little silver fox kept in captivity at home.
Maybe she slept too peacefully, but Xiao Junhe didn't dare to move for fear of disturbing her sound sleep.
It wasn't until the carriage stopped that the driver said, "We've arrived." Xiao Junhe moved her head away with some regret, and then got out of the car.
It's just that the sunshine outside is bright and warm, but without that soft body, it seems that the sun is not so warm.
Xiao Junhe said goodbye to the coachman, then turned and left with a big stride. But before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at the carriage. The woman inside seemed to have touched his heart.
After receiving the report from the concierge, Mrs. Qiao hurriedly put down her work and took people to Xie Ruyue's courtyard. When he saw that she was still asleep, he immediately asked, "What's going on?"
The bruises on the coachman's face clearly revealed the situation at that time, but when Mrs. Qiao actually learned what happened, she was still broken into a cold sweat. After hearing that someone came to rescue her, she quickly asked the person's identity.
But the coachman had never seen him before, so he shook his head and said, "I have never seen this young master, and I don't know his identity. Moreover, I saw that he had an extraordinary bearing, and I even forgot to ask about it for a moment."
Hearing this, Ms. Qiao could only sigh and said, "That's all, in that case, it must be that he doesn't want to tell me."
The doctor came quickly. After she made the diagnosis, she immediately asked in confusion, "How could the second young lady be drugged?"
Mrs. Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then said with sharp eyebrows, "It seems that someone can't help but want to attack my Xie family! Go and check for me, even if you dig deep, I will find out the real culprit behind this!" "
However, before the people sent by Mr. Qiao could get back the news, they heard a message from the concierge saying that someone was making trouble outside.
Qiao was busy checking the items in the warehouse at that time, and said without raising her head, "If someone makes trouble, just call him out. Why do you come to report it to me?"
After hearing this, the concierge suddenly hesitated and said, "That man, that man said that he was married to the second lady, so..."
"What did you say?!" Mrs. Qiao suddenly raised her eyes. Seeing the concierge's expression of embarrassment, she immediately stood up and said, "I'll go take a look!"
