Chapter 899
Le'an nodded: "Don't worry, I'll leave the guards here to continue guarding the house for you, and we'll talk about it again once things have settled down."
"good."
Le'an told the guards what was going on and then left in a hurry.

At that time, Qi Jinggang was both happy and regretful when she heard the news of Ding Yu's divorce.
She was happy that Ding Yu and she had divorced, but regretful that she was now a concubine and couldn't easily get out of the situation.
Seeing that Ding Yu had nowhere to stay, Qi Jing simply paid for a room for him at an inn so that he could stay there for the time being.
Ding Yu readily accepted and settled comfortably into the guest room.
Meanwhile, Qi Jing hesitated for a long time, but still took the initiative to go to Huo Zhao.
"Young Madam."
Qi Jing slightly bent her knees towards Huo Zhao.
Huo Zhao had just gotten up from his nap and was still a little sleepy: "Is something the matter?"
Qi Jing bit her lip and said, "Young Madam, you must know about Young Master Ding's matter, right?"
"What," Huo Zhao glanced at her, "what does this have to do with you?"
“Young Madam, if I leave, the inner courtyard will be peaceful again, and no one will be able to interfere between you and the Prince. Wouldn’t that be a good thing for you?”
Huo Zhao couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Even if you don't leave, do you think you can get involved?"
Qi Jing had been in the Hou Mansion's backyard for quite some time, but Shen Rang had never gone there once.
"But if I leave, you'll have some peace and quiet, won't you?"
“That’s a good point,” Huo Zhao said, before Qi Jing could feel happy, “but in the end, you’re the one who benefits more from this, so why should I grant your wish?”
After what you did, why did you think I would forgive you, or even repay evil with kindness and fulfill your wishes?
Days passed by, but that didn't mean Huo Zhao had forgotten what had happened before.
At the polo match, Qi Jing made such a mess of things. If it weren't for her and Shen Rang's vigilance, the backyard would probably have been turned upside down by Qi Jing and Shi Xiao working together.
Qi Jing's face paled slightly: "Young Madam, just because of this past incident, are you not prepared to live your life from now on?"
"You make it sound so easy," Huo Zhao sneered. "You benefited from what happened last time, so of course you can just let it go. But Qi Jing, I'm not your mother, why should I spoil you like this?"
The situation immediately became deadlocked.
Finally, Qi Jing was the first to give up: "Then, young madam, please name your terms. As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
Huo Zhao then glanced at her again.
This person has finally come to their senses.
"You know what happened in the Marquis's mansion before. The first young mistress was divorced because of her debauchery in the inner quarters. Such a thing must never happen again."
Hearing Huo Zhao's words, Qi Jing didn't take them seriously at all, and even wanted to laugh a little.
Cannot appear?
Even if we didn't want this situation to happen, it has already happened.
These days, she and Ding Yu are very sweet and loving, even like a real couple!
Thinking of this, Qi Jing actually began to feel sorry for Shen Rang.
An ordinary man would probably die of a heart attack after experiencing something like this once, but Chen Rang was different; once wasn't enough, he had to do it again.
Taking in the disdain in Qi Jing's eyes, Huo Zhao's gaze turned cold: "So, you have to put on an act with me."
