Su Huaiyue pursed her lips. Every word Yan Shu said was true, hitting her heart like a heavy hammer.

The Wei family nowadays seems prosperous on the surface, but in reality they are walking on thin ice.

Once Wei Ersao confesses and goes to jail, the reputation of Meiyan Pavilion will inevitably be affected.

Those troublemakers will definitely take the opportunity to spread rumors and cause trouble. By then, even if Meiyan Pavilion’s products are good, it will probably be difficult to regain the trust of customers.

Seeing Su Huaiyue remained silent, Yan Shu sneered, and that laugh cut through the air like an ice knife, "Su Huaiyue, think clearly before you confront me. Don't mistake your benefactor for your enemy."

After that, he shouted domineeringly: "Come here, send Miss Su out!"

Su Huaiyue left Liuyun Pavilion absentmindedly, with Yan Shu's words echoing in her mind all the way.

Yan Shu's cold tone, mocking eyes, and every word he said were like sharp thorns piercing Su Huaiyue's heart.

Her steps were heavy and her eyes were wandering. Everything around her seemed to have nothing to do with her. She was immersed in her own thoughts, thinking about the plight of the Wei family and the injustice of the woman, and she didn't pay attention to her feet at all.

Before she knew it, she returned to the Wei family.

The door of the Wei family slowly opened in front of her. She walked in mechanically, her heart full of worries making her ignore the situation at the door.

At this moment, Wei Che just came out, and the two of them bumped into each other without any warning.

Su Huaiyue only felt that his forehead hit heavily against a hard chest, and a warm breath hit his face.

The sudden collision brought her back to her senses in an instant. Her mind went blank and her body subconsciously leaned back, almost falling.

She was startled and her heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

"Wei Che, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention."

She quickly took a few steps back and looked at Wei Che in panic, her face full of guilt and embarrassment.

Wei Che was also a little dazed by the collision. He subconsciously reached out to support Su Huaiyue, but only grabbed a piece of air.

He steadied himself and looked at Su Huaiyue's panicked appearance, and worry instantly surged in his heart.

He frowned slightly, his eyes full of concern, without a hint of blame.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?" His voice was low and gentle, with a hint of anxiety.

He looked at Su Huaiyue carefully, his eyes sweeping over her face and body, trying to confirm whether she was injured.

"Did something happen? Why are you so absent-minded?"

His eyes were fixed on Su Huaiyue, trying to find some clues from her expression.

Su Huaiyue sighed, his expression solemn, his eyes full of entanglement and struggle.

She pursed her lips slightly and repeated Yan Shu's words word for word, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

As the words came out, the guilt in her heart surged like a tide, and her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"I really don't know what to do, Wei Che. Yan Shu's words make me feel conflicted. I don't want to put the Wei family in trouble, but I can't stand by and watch that woman suffer injustice."

She stared at Wei Che closely, her eyes full of urgency for answers.

After hearing this, Wei Che frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

His eyes were deep and focused, as if he was quickly sorting out various possibilities in his mind.

After a moment, he slowly said, "Sister-in-law, there is really no way to have the best of both worlds."

His voice was steady and calm, and every word seemed carefully considered.

"But Meiyan Pavilion isn't doomed. What Second Sister-in-law said is true. The silver she stole was very little. We can simply have her say she made a mistake. Then, no matter what the officers and soldiers say, she can insist that she made a mistake and changed the account book. Then, everything might be over."

He paused slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of determination, as if he was full of confidence in the method he proposed.

After listening to Wei Che's words, Su Huaiyue was silent for a while.

She bit her lip slightly, and there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

What Wei Che said did make sense. Doing so might temporarily resolve the Wei family's crisis and preserve the reputation of Meiyan Pavilion.

But she was still a little worried. If the officers and soldiers discovered her plan, or if the matter became known, the Wei family would still be affected.

Moreover, doing so will not truly clear the name of the wrongly accused woman.

"Wei Che, is this really okay?" Su Huaiyue raised her head and looked at Wei Che with a hint of uncertainty in her eyes.

"If we're found to be lying, the Wei family might face even more serious consequences. Besides, I still feel guilty about that woman. I can't just leave her like this."

There was a hint of unquestionable determination in her tone, and her hands were unconsciously clenched, revealing her inner struggle.

Wei Che looked at Su Huaiyue, his heart full of understanding. He gently patted Su Huaiyue's shoulder and comforted her, "Sister-in-law, I know what you are worried about. But this is the best solution we can think of at the moment. We will do our best to handle this matter and will not put the Wei family in danger. As for that woman, we will not ignore her. Once the Wei family's affairs are resolved, we will find a way to rescue her."

His eyes were full of determination and tenderness, trying to reassure Su Huaiyue.

"But..." Su Huaiyue was still a little hesitant. She narrowed her eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry." Wei Che interrupted her, his tone firm and powerful.

"It's no big deal. We are a family. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must face them together. I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome this difficulty."

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a warm smile, trying to dispel the haze in Su Huaiyue's heart. Su Huaiyue raised her head, looking at Wei Che's firm eyes and warm smile, and a warm current surged in her heart.

She took a deep breath and nodded slightly, the hesitation in her heart gradually dissipating.

"Okay, Wei Che, I'll listen to you. Let's work together to find a way to solve this problem."

Her eyes were filled with determination again, and she straightened her back, as if she had regained the courage and determination to face difficulties.

The mute woman has been imprisoned, and it is very difficult to overturn the case in a short period of time. The most urgent task is to find out the person behind the framing of the Wei family to prevent similar things from happening again.

Wei Che saw Su Huaiyue lost in thought, her eyes full of worry, and knew in his heart that she was troubled by many problems at the moment.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and said softly: "I'm going out to buy some cakes that Yunrou likes to eat. She hasn't been in a good mood recently."

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with the concern of a brother, and his voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, trying to ease the depressing atmosphere.

Su Huaiyue nodded without thinking too much, his mind still full of thoughts about the current difficult situation.
