She gave in.

Those words were spoken almost pleadingly and cautiously.

She knew that explanation was useless, so she could only be forced to say what he liked to hear and then silently try to find out the truth.

She firmly believes that there is no wall that is impenetrable.

She believed that sooner or later, the truth would come to light.

"Jing Yi, can you let me go first and give me some time, a month, or even half a month..."

She begged him humbly, her eyes red and swollen.

She bit her lower lip lightly and looked at the man with cautious eyes.

Jing Yi looked at her like this, his brows slightly frowned.

This expression didn't really suit her.

He pinched her chin critically, "You have always been arrogant, would you ever ask for help from others?"

"I……"

"If you dare to shed a tear again, I will teach you how to write the word 'obedient'."

Yun Ying's body trembled slightly, and she immediately clenched her hands and swallowed the sob that was rising in her throat. She bit her lower lip tightly and didn't even make a single hum.

But, my eyes are still red...

Jing Yi felt strangely blinded, angrily pushed her away, and got out of bed:

"From today on, repent for your sins every day!"

Yun Ying's lips trembled, but she did not refute...

At this time, there was a sound outside the door.

"Sir, the young lady is here." The subordinate reported.

Qin Ye is here.

She was originally resting in the palace, but when she received the news from the clinic that Yun Ying was injured, she rushed over without thinking twice.

He strode into the room, and when he saw the girl sitting on the bed with her face swollen and blue, and her eyes red from crying, his heart tightened.

"How did you do that?!"

When I went to attend the ancestral worship ceremony in the morning, I was fine.

After not seeing you for most of the day, you've become like this!

Jing Yi stood aside and said two words concisely:

"Gu family."

Qin Ye's eyes darkened, and he understood something at once. It turned out that Master Gu had suffered a crime in Prince Chen's Mansion and had no place to vent, so he attacked Yun Ying.

A grown man, but he even beats a woman.

What kind of man is that!

Yue'er followed in and saw Yunying was beaten badly, with both cheeks swollen, the corners of her mouth were cut, her clothes were messy, and her face was almost unrecognizable from its original appearance.

At the same time, he also saw Jing Yi.

She paused slightly and asked casually:

"Yun Ying, why are you with Master Jing?"

"I……"

Yun Ying's hands subconsciously grasped the quilt tightly. She choked a little when she said the truth, "It was Master Jing who saved me..."

Jing Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yun Ying, as if asking from the corner of his eyes:

Why don’t you tell the truth?

Why didn't he tell the princess that he was bullying and retaliating against her?

But Yunying didn't dare to say it.

If she told him, how would the princess choose between her, Jing Yi, and the young marquis? How could she treat them equally?

If she had said that, she should have left the princess.

She wanted to find out the truth before confessing it all.

Yue Er was puzzled: "Aren't you at Gu's house? Why would Master Jing go to Gu's house?"

Could it be that Master Jing has been paying attention to Yunying's movements, so he rushed there first when Yunying was in trouble?

Jing Yi glanced sideways, looking at Yue Er with cold and cold eyes:

"Are you curious?"

Yue'er's breathing tightened, and she subconsciously clenched her hands and lowered her head, not daring to talk back.

But her heart turned cold...

Master Jing protects Yunying.

He really likes Yunying!

Yun Ying must also like Master Jing, which is why she rejected the young marquis's courtship.

But how could a woman who had lost her virginity and was not clean receive the love of two such outstanding men?
