"I'm not reconciled. What's wrong with wanting to take back everything that rightfully belongs to me!"

...

Hearing his accusations, Qin Wanru trembled with anger: "You bastard, I did say before that you had a great chance, but when did I ever say that I had to marry Chu Yan to you? Although I think highly of you, in the end it still depends on Chu Yan's own wishes. She chose Azu instead of you, so what can I do?"

"At first I also thought she was confused, but now it seems that it's fortunate that Chu Yan didn't choose you, a wolf in sheep's clothing, otherwise you would definitely be a great scourge to our Chu family!"

Hong Xingying laughed heartily: "It's no use saying all this now. What I've lost, I will take back with my own hands!"

Chu Chuyan will still be mine in the end, it's just a pity that Zuan has already taken the first bite!

Hong Xingying's anger level increased by 999!

But it doesn't matter, there's still the second young lady. What you can't get from the eldest young lady, you can get from her younger sister!

Just then, Liu Yao, who was standing to the side, became impatient and shoved him aside: "Aren't you going to stop talking nonsense? Who are you trying to impress with this 'I'm in my own hands' attitude? Who's in charge here, you or me?"

A flash of anger crossed Hong Xingying's eyes, but he knew he couldn't afford to offend this man, so he quickly bowed and apologized: "General, please forgive me. I couldn't control my emotions when I returned to my old home."

"Get out of here." Liu Yao snorted, then looked at the Chu couple. "Now you've finally given up, haven't you?"

Chu Zhongtian said in a deep voice, "We are not convinced. Everyone heard it. This Hong Xing harbors resentment towards our Chu family. In addition, his father was recently killed after causing trouble in the Chu mansion. So how can his words be taken seriously?"

Liu Yao chuckled: "Don't worry, I'm carrying out the Emperor's orders to thoroughly investigate this matter. After all, this matter not only concerns the Chu family, but also many important officials in the court."

After saying that, his smile vanished, and he ordered his men: "Men, arrest everyone in the Chu family, register them all, and don't let a single one escape."

Hong Xingying, who was standing to the side, lit up and volunteered: "I'll lead the way. I know the Chu family well, and I know everyone in the family."

His first thought was to catch that guy, Zuan, not only to avenge his polygamy but also to avenge his father's murder.

"Achoo!" At that moment, Zuan was teaching an arithmetic class to his students in the academy when he couldn't help but sneeze. "Who's talking about me again?"

Seeing the anger records coming from the backend, his eyes narrowed: "Hong Xingying!"

At that moment, the classroom door was suddenly kicked open.

I'm currently brainstorming plot ideas for the next volume. I've been researching a lot, and it's made my head spin. I'll post a second update later.
