After the three of them left the restaurant, Cui Zhu couldn’t hold back her anger any longer. Tears flowed freely as she knelt in front of Ruan Mian.
"Miss, it’s my fault for misjudging people, for trusting the wrong person, which caused you such a heavy loss, and led to so many innocent brothers of the transport lines dying away from ho!"
"I am guilty. Please punish , Miss!"
Cui Zhu kowtowed forcefully, but Ruan Mian hurriedly helped her up: "Zhu’er, didn’t you promise earlier, no matter what the truth is, you must remain calm."
"I had considered this result long ago, and you did nothing wrong. Look at all of us, we were all deceived by him, and he targeted you specifically. Who could have predicted it in advance?"
"So there’s no need to bla yourself. Get up quickly."
Though she said this, Cui Zhu still felt uneasy in her heart.
"But Miss, those people just now didn’t ntion the whereabouts of the goods. What should we do now?"
"No rush. Since we’re already here, let’s settle down first and let think about it."
They were already very efficient, discovering the truth on their first day here.
As for how to proceed, Ruan Mian really needed to think carefully.
She first went to an inn to rent a room, then went around to gather information about Qin Fu.
When the three of them reunited, Yun Xiu still hadn’t returned.
They didn’t know that Yun Xiu was already in the backyard of the Qin Mansion.
At dusk, he stood calmly in front of the two young n he once traded with through Qin Fu.
"What are you secretly trading with Qin Fu? Don’t you know what kind of person he is?"
The young man in the green robe exchanged a glance with his elder brother, a sharp glint flashing in their eyes, as he couldn’t help but smirk mockingly.
"Isn’t this our little brother who wandered outside? You once said in front of our father that you didn’t want to return, and father respected your choice and let you go. Why are you ddling with us now?"
Yun Xiu clenched his hands tightly, saying only, "I have no interest in your affairs, but Qin Fu isn’t a good person. If you trade with him, aren’t you afraid of being tricked?"
"I’m here this ti because Qin Fu stole our things and wanted to kill my... my benefactor."
The young man in the green robe let out a disdainful snort.
"Our affairs aren’t sothing you can ddle in."
However, the eldest son, who had been silent, slowly raised his eyes to look at Yun Xiu.
"Xiu’er, we haven’t seen each other for a long ti. Did you co to see us today just to say these things?"
"And who is this benefactor you speak of?"
The young man in the green robe said, "Why are you telling him so much, big brother? He was the one who chose to leave the Tunan Family and sever ties with us. What’s the point of saying all this?"
The second son sneered at Yun Xiu, his arrogant chin full of disdain.
"I advise you to stay out of our business. Otherwise, you won’t be able to bear the consequences of your actions."
"Second brother!" Yun Xiu instinctively spoke, but before he could finish, the young man in the green robe let out a mocking snort.
"You think you can still call us brothers? You were the one who said you were cutting ties! How can soone like you deserve our family’s honor?"
"Back then, when you were young, the whole family worried about you because you were kidnapped and wandered far from ho, and the family was in tears every day. Finally, when they found you, you chose to go back to that poor, wretched place! Even our Liao Lie Royal Family wasn’t good enough for you.
How can soone like you stand on stage? How do you have the right to say these things to us?"
Hearing him repeatedly reprimand, Yun Xiu unconsciously clenched his hands, feeling a deep discomfort in his heart.
Indeed, his family did find him then, and he followed Xie Huai’an to Wuheng.
But in those years of wandering outside, he was tortured as a slave, and risked dying in the Tiger’s jaws at the Beast Fighting Arena.
He is alive today thanks to the rcy of Sister Mianmian and Mr. Xie!
By their side, Yun Xiu lived well and happily, surrounded by like-minded people, without any scheming against each other. Everyone had their own ambitions and pursuits, united as one, working together with unwavering determination.
How can this not be considered a good life?
Indeed, if he had agreed to his family’s request to return to the Liao Lie Royal Family and resu his identity as a prince.
But so what? Facing a group of unfamiliar family mbers and an unfamiliar society, he wasn’t happy!
Besides, with so many rules and constraints, he was used to being wild and couldn’t live that opulent lifestyle.
That’s why he agreed with them to leave that place, returning to Mr. Xie and Sister Mianmian’s side, preferring to be an ordinary person.
