Du Chunhua stared at Liu Shi, and before Liu Shi could speak, she raised her eyebrows and said, "It's you?"
Liu smiled awkwardly and quickly said, "Your Excellency and Madam have misunderstood. I was just having a casual chat with the Princess."
"Hehe." Chen Zhixiu ignored Liu's pleading eyes and directly said the words that Liu had just used to insult Bai Tuantuan, "Tuantuan is a princess who protects the country, yet she was insulted like this. It is my fault that I, as her mother, could not protect her."
"How dare you!" Ning Chengzhu roared. "I'm going to ask Prince Ping right now if he taught this arrogant woman to behave like that!"
With that, Ning Chengzhu rushed out!
Liu's face turned deathly pale in an instant. She opened her mouth, her voice trembling as she said, "No, I didn't, Madam Hou, I..."
Liu grabbed Du Chunhua's hand, trying to explain, but Du Chunhua flicked her sleeve and pushed her away!
"What bad luck! I'm telling you this: my son would rather stay single for the rest of his life than marry Mu Xuerou!"
"Xiu'er, let's go! I don't want to be with someone like that for even a second longer!"
With that, Du Chunhua pulled Chen Zhixiu away.
Liu clutched her chest in anger, listening to the sound of the door closing, but her heart was filled with fear and terror.
"Quickly! Back to the manor!"
The Bai Tuantuan group next door had no idea what had happened. After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they parted ways with Mu Yangzhi and headed towards the Bai family with Chen Lingfeng and Chen Xingfeng.
"White ball!"
A sweet, charming voice rang out.
Bai Tuantuan turned her head and looked over. Who else could it be but Zheng Yinrong?
But Zheng Yinrong's face turned deathly pale. She rushed towards Bai Tuantuan and said in a trembling voice, "Quick, save me... take me away!"
Bai Tuantuan quickly glanced behind Zheng Yinrong and saw two men walking towards them. Without saying a word, she pulled Zheng Yinrong to her side and said, "Big brother, second brother, let's go to the Chen family. It's closer there."
Chen Xingfeng and Chen Lingfeng exchanged a glance. Chen Xingfeng said, "What's wrong with you? Aren't those Mu Xiangyang's two older brothers?"
Zheng Yinrong bit her lip tightly, tears welling in her eyes: "My grandfather made them take me shopping. I didn't want to go, but he forced me. I had no choice but to go with them, but they started touching me inappropriately. I barely managed to escape, Tuantuan, I'm scared..."
Bai Tuantuan patted Zheng Yinrong's head, then said to Chen Lingfeng, "Big brother, you handle those two. I'll take Yinrong back first."
"Um."
As Mu Chengjin watched Bai Tuantuan and Zheng Yinrong leave, he quickly ran over. Just as he was about to grab Zheng Yinrong's arm, Chen Lingfeng stopped him: "Young Master Mu, Second Young Master Mu, what a coincidence."
Mu Chengjin then noticed Chen Lingfeng and Chen Xingfeng, and could only watch helplessly as Zheng Yinrong left. He bowed and greeted them, saying, "Lord Chen, young Lord Chen."
"What are you doing?" Chen Xingfeng asked, feigning confusion. "Are you shopping?"
"We just finished eating and want to digest our food, why don't we go together?" Chen Xingfeng said with a smile. "I heard there's a new bookstore up ahead, shall we go check it out?"
"I'm not going!" Mu Chenglan said irritably. "That wretched woman actually ran away! I'll teach her a lesson!"
"Chenglan! What nonsense are you talking about?" Mu Chengjin glared at Mu Chenglan, then said with a smile, "Chenglan was just joking, don't take it seriously. But we won't go shopping, we still have to go back to the Zheng family to pick up our grandfather."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lingfeng expressed his understanding: "Alright, then I won't bother you two any longer."
As he spoke, Chen Lingfeng turned to the side, and after the two left, Chen Xingfeng rolled his eyes: "Mu Chengjin is a smiling tiger, and Mu Chenglan is a scumbag!"
"Alright," Chen Lingfeng said indifferently. "Those two brothers are not worth mentioning; they're brainless."
Meanwhile, after Bai Tuantuan brought Zheng Yinrong home, she poured her a cup of hot water: "Don't worry, everything's alright."
Zheng Yinrong's tears fell: "Tuantuan, can I stay at your house? I'm scared... My grandfather and the others want me to marry Mu Chengjin or Mu Chenglan, but they are so lewd... especially Mu Chenglan... I don't want to."
"What did your parents say?" Bai Tuantuan asked in a low voice.
Zheng Yinrong sniffed, took a deep breath, and said, "My mother has argued with my grandfather many times, but he won't budge. My grandmother was so angry that she went to the temple, and my father has already been beaten by my grandfather and is still lying in bed."
“My brother doesn’t know about this yet. We don’t dare let him know. He’s impulsive, and I’m afraid he’ll do something stupid.”
"Besides, my younger brother is only seven years old and doesn't understand anything."
Bai Tuantuan pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll have someone go find your mother and tell her that you're at the Chen family's."
"Don't worry, Lian'er lives here. If you need anything and are too embarrassed to ask anyone else, just go to her."
"What's going on?" As soon as you speak of the devil, Huang Lian walks in with some medicinal herbs.
Seeing Zheng Yinrong's red and swollen eyes, he was slightly taken aback: "What happened? Who bullied you?"
After Bai Tuantuan gave a brief explanation, Huang Lian frowned deeply: "Those two brothers are not clean. Your grandfather is pushing you into a fire pit!"
"What do you mean?" Bai Tuantuan asked疑惑地. "Has something happened?"
"Hmm." Huang Lian sat down, handed the medicinal herbs to the maid, and then said, "Those two people once went to see our doctor, but the doctor found out that they had contracted venereal disease, which is incurable."
"Symptoms of venereal disease!" Zheng Yinrong screamed, her face growing even paler.
"So, Yinrong, no matter what, you absolutely cannot marry them! Even Mu Xiangyang would be better! After all, your grandfather only wants you to marry into the Prince Ping's mansion."
Huang Lian's words made Zheng Yinrong frown: "Mu Xiangyang?"
"Well, over the years, only Mu Xiangyang from the Prince Ping's mansion has a decent reputation."
"But I don't want to marry into the Prince Ping's household."
Zheng Yinrong pursed her lips: "That place is not a good place."
Huang Lian sighed: "That's one way, but if you can avoid getting married, then you shouldn't."
Bai Tuantuan's eyes darted around, but she didn't say much. She just let them chat while she left the Chen residence and went directly to the Zheng family.
Soon, Bai Tuantuan saw Madam Zheng.
"I'm relieved that you have her at your home. Thank you, Princess." Madam Zheng managed a weak smile.
Bai Tuantuan looked at Madam Zheng and said, "If you parents can't stand up for her, then no one can. Neither Mu Chenglan nor Mu Chengjin are good people."
"You have to give up something to gain something. I hope you will consider this carefully, Madam, for the sake of your appearance and voice."
As she spoke, Bai Tuantuan took out a booklet and handed it to Madam Zheng: "Madam, please take a good look at this."
What did you give her?
Bai Tuantuan smiled and said, "This is the list of women these two brothers have slept with over the years."
