Grandma Wang didn't plan to move into the Zhang family's house until her husband woke up.

Therefore, she declined the invitation on Lele's behalf without the slightest hesitation.

Liu Shile didn't want to go either; no one else's house was as convenient as living at home by herself.

She also wanted to visit her mentor in Western medicine, with whom she had been corresponding.

If her master knew that she had come to the capital and didn't visit him, he would definitely be angry later.

Furthermore, she still has a master to take care of, so how could she go to the Zhang family?

There are also matters concerning the Qin family, so she's been very busy since arriving in the capital!

After refusing Liu Wei, Liu Shile gave some instructions and then left with Grandma Wang.

On the way, Liu Shile noticed that someone was watching them.

She didn't care. She guessed that those people didn't quite trust her, so she sent someone to keep an eye on her and find out what was going on.

Back at the guesthouse, the young lady there told her she had been given a note.

The note was left by her master, saying that he had to go out for a while and that she shouldn't worry about his safety.

Liu Shile frowned, but then she thought that her master seemed quite familiar with this place, so she figured he must know it pretty well.

Back in her room, she glanced at the location of her master's seat and found it to be quite far away, but it seemed safe enough, so she felt relieved.

"Grandma Wang, come on, I'll take you to eat. What would you like to eat?"

The capital is the capital after all; supplies weren't as scarce as she had imagined.

It's also possible that this is only the end of the first year, and some of the stored grain can still last a while.

Grandma Wang looked at the smiling little girl and felt a little sorry for her. "I asked the guesthouse, and they have a kitchen that we can borrow."

"We brought some food with us, Lele, what would you like to eat? Grandma will make it for you!"

The dietary habits of the North and South are actually quite different.

Liu Shile was actually somewhat tempted by what she heard.

But considering how long Grandma Wang had gone through on the road, and her age, I felt a little sorry for her.

So she shook her head, "Don't bother with all that, let's go out to eat, we have plenty of money and tickets anyway."

These banknotes were all obtained from Luo Dongming.

Liu Shile wasn't so kind as to let Luo Dongming off the hook, so she found out where he hid his things.

His henchmen were also all ransacked.

As for whether doing this will cause trouble, well, as victims, isn't it only natural for them to make those who harmed them bleed a little?

Grandma Wang couldn't resist the girl's insistence, so she was taken to a state-run restaurant for a meal.

"Qin Lihua, I heard your older brother had an accident, is that true?"

Just as Liu Shile sat down and ordered her food at the state-run restaurant, she heard someone ask her a question with sarcasm and disdain.

She frowned. Could it be such a coincidence that she ran into the Qin family?

Qin Lihua, the only daughter of the third branch of the Qin family, is 18 years old and currently attending university.

"Yes, yes, I heard your older cousin got into some trouble. How dare you come out to eat?"

Then someone spoke up in a rather sharp tone, seemingly intending to humiliate Qin Lihua.

Liu Shile paused slightly in her movements, then turned her head and saw several girls outside the restaurant surrounding a girl wearing a white scarf.

The girl was exceptionally beautiful; she was easily spotted even in a crowd.

Liu Shile narrowed her eyes. It really was a girl from the third branch of the Qin family. What a coincidence!

"Li Mingzhu, Cao Huarong, what nonsense are you spouting?"

My older cousin is innocent; he'll be out soon!

Qin Lihua's beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with anger, and her hands were already clenched into fists.

Her voice was neither humble nor arrogant, but rather imposing, showing no sign of timidity.

It's unclear whether she genuinely didn't know the situation or firmly believed that her older cousin was innocent.

"Ha, it's been so long and he still hasn't come out, and you still say he's been wronged? You've got some nerve!"

"Yeah, yeah, if I were you, I wouldn't even have the face to go to school."

Unfortunately, some people have skin as thick as a city wall; their families have all gotten into trouble, but they act like nothing happened!

Several girls were making sarcastic and sarcastic remarks, and every now and then someone would provoke them with a word or two.

Qin Lihua was so angry that she wanted to raise her fist to punch someone, but she had only just raised her hand and hadn't even started to hit when she heard a soft voice coming over.

"Lihua, why did you hit them? I apologize on their behalf, please don't hit them."

If you take action and they report you, you won't be able to go to school.

Liu Shile rolled her eyes. Where did this innocent white lotus come from?

It seems like she's speaking for Qin Lihua's own good, but look at the disapproving look in the young man's eyes as he looks at Qin Mingli.

"Lihua, you've really disappointed me. How could you be so violent?"

The young girl Qin Lihua turned around stiffly and saw Bai Su and Shu Tong walking side by side.

Shu Tong looked at him with disappointment and disgust.

Qin Lihua moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.

The girls surrounding her, however, looked at her as if she were their savior.

She ran over to the two men like lightning and began to complain.

It's nothing more than saying how unreasonable and domineering Qin Lihua is, and how many bad things she did at school, etc.

Qin Lihua couldn't believe that these people had actually twisted the truth and portrayed her as utterly wicked!

Her eyes were slightly red. As a girl from the Qin family, she had never suffered such grievances before.

In particular, when her fiancé looked at her with disgust, as if she were something filthy, her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe.

"Lele, I feel like that girl looks a bit like you?"

Before Liu Shile could speak, Grandma Wang also saw what was happening outside.

After saying that, Grandma Wang added, "That girl is pitiful too; it's obvious she was tricked by those other girls."

Liu Shile?

So Grandma Wang can understand what's being said here?

She thought that since it was Wang Nai's first time visiting the capital, she might not be able to speak the language!

After thinking it over, Liu Shile decided not to keep it from Grandma Wang anymore.

So she nodded, "That one seems to be my cousin, from my parents' side."

"Lele, what did you say? That's your cousin? And your biological parents?"

Grandma Wang stared wide-eyed in disbelief. So, the Liu family weren't her biological parents?

"You silly girl, why don't you go out and help your sister?"

The old lady originally thought it best not to meddle in other people's business since she was new to the area, so as not to cause trouble for Lele.

But now, the girl who was being bullied was Lele's relative, and she immediately became anxious and spoke up.

Uh~

Why is Grandma Wang even more excited than I am? This is really...

However, although the third wife and the first wife were half-siblings, the third wife never harbored any disloyal intentions.

Most importantly, this girl seems to firmly believe that her older cousin was wronged. Since that's the case, why not lend a hand?

Having made her decision, Liu Shile didn't hesitate any longer.

He walked briskly to Qin Lihua, grasped her icy hand, and looked at her with a smile.

Qin Lihua looked at her with a misty gaze, her eyes filled with confusion.
