Chapter 71 Seduction
Han Qingli approached Du Huaizhi and said, "Huaizhi, don't be too angry. I believe in my cousin's character. Someone must have deceived Zhizhi and harmed him. I have already asked someone to investigate. It won't be long before we know who did this."
Du Huaizhi hummed softly, his eyes returning to the door curtain of the wing room. At this time, Xie Sui came over wearing a clean blue shirt, his hair still half wet, obviously he hadn't bothered to take care of it.
"I'm sorry." Xie Sui bowed solemnly, "I was careless about what happened today."
Du Huaizhi looked at his half-wet hair and sincere expression, and said indifferently, "Master Xie, there is no need to blame yourself too much. Every wrong has its perpetrator, and the lake water is turbid. If Zhizhi knew that something bad had happened later..." She paused, and a vicious look flashed in her eyes.
Xie Sui looked at the door of the wing room, trying to see something through the door panel. He was filled with guilt and didn't notice Du Huaizhi's subtle change at all. "I will find out about this matter myself, and..."
"No need." Du Huaizhi interrupted him, "I will handle this matter myself. You don't have the right to do this for Zhizhi yet."
Xie Sui was stunned by these words, and the color drained from his face. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he just bowed deeply, "I have overstepped my bounds."
The conversation was too tense, so Han Qingli hurried to smooth things over. "Huaizhi, calm down first. Zhizhi is fine now, isn't she? Cousin, don't take it to heart. Huaizhi is just worried and confused, and some of the words don't mean it."
Du Huaizhi ignored them and turned to lift the curtain to enter the side room. An Nian was giving Du Ruozhi acupuncture. Seeing her come in, he said softly, "She hasn't had a fever yet, but it's hard to say. We need to observe her further."
Du Ruozhi was already awake at this time. The quilt wrapped her body into a ball, with only her head exposed. She looked at Du Huaizhi with watery eyes, "Sister, don't blame Master Xie. It was my own carelessness."
"When did you learn to turn your elbows outward?" Du Huaizhi pinched her face. "He's a martial artist, but he doesn't have this much reaction time. What's the difference between him and trash?"
Han Qingli followed in and agreed when she heard this. "Exactly. I used to think my cousin was amazing. He could scale walls and fight ten enemies at once. Now I feel like he's just so-so. He can't even protect Zhizhi."
Du Huaizhi made a gesture to her to keep quiet, comforted Du Ruozhi, and then pulled her aside.
"How is it? Can you confirm who did it?" Du Huaizhi asked.
Han Qingli lowered her voice, "We've found out. It was Su Miaomiao. She saw Zhizhi being close to her cousin and came over, deliberately trying to get close to Zhizhi and push her cousin away. She originally wanted to pretend to be pushed into the water by Zhizhi to get her cousin to rescue her, but she ended up hurting Zhizhi instead."
Du Huaizhi's eyes flashed coldly: "It is indeed her. I didn't want to provoke her at first, but now it seems that I have to teach her a lesson."
Han Qingli's eyes flashed with excitement. "I've wanted to fuck her for a long time, but I never had the chance. Do you need my help?"
Du Huaizhi originally wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, he nodded.
"So what do we do?"
"Don't be impatient." Du Huaizhi gestured for her to speak softly. "We can't make a big deal out of this. We need to teach her a lesson while also giving her a chance to speak out. We'll treat her the way she treated us."
She leaned close to Han Qingli's ear and whispered something, and Han Qingli smiled knowingly. But when she turned around, she felt a little confused.
"But who should we use as bait? My cousin? I'm afraid it's not going to work. After what happened, she probably won't take the initiative to stick to me for a while."
Du Huaizhi folded his arms across his chest, looking confident and confident, "Don't worry, I've already found the right person."
"Oh? Who is it?"
…
"You want me to be bait?"
Li Siyu saw Du Huaizhi, who had escaped in the morning, coming to him on his own initiative. Before he had the chance to tease him, no, to show concern for him, he heard some incredible words.
"Yeah." Du Huaizhi stood five steps away from him calmly, "Only you can help me with this." He was the new noble in the capital, and his status was higher than Xie Sui. Apart from him, the only other person was the crown prince Li Zixian.
She was not familiar with Li Zixian. Even though he saved her life, she was too embarrassed to ask him for help. She had no choice but to ask that bastard Li Siyu.
"Are you secretly scolding me again?"
“…”
Du Huaizhi: “No.”
"No? Then you were staring at me just now, as if you wanted to tear me apart." He took two steps forward, and Du Huaizhi immediately stepped back, just five steps away, causing him to chuckle, "Why are you so wary of me?"
"If you don't want to help, then forget it." Du Huaizhi was too lazy to beat around the bush with him, so he turned around and was about to leave. He had already thought of the next person in his mind - if that didn't work, he could go find Wei Shan.
"Hey, don't go." Li Siyu reached out to stop her, a few light red scratches on his wrist. "Help, of course I should help. But I can't work for nothing, right?" He looked at Du Huaizhi. "So, what are you going to do to thank me, Miss Du?"
Du Huaizhi frowned, "What do you want?"
"Simple." Li Siyu pointed to the corner of his lips and smiled improperly. There were obviously fresh scars on his thin lips.
"……roll."
Li Siyu didn't force it. "Okay, what do you want me to do? Tell me again, you set up a trap and used bait, who are you trying to get rid of?"
Du Huaizhi explained the reason.
Li Siyu raised an eyebrow, "What a coincidence! Taifu Su sent me an invitation a few days ago, inviting me to a banquet at his villa outside the city."
Du Huaizhi's eyes lit up, but then he calmed down again, "Since we're attending a banquet, there will be many people around, and I'm afraid I might lose my composure. Su Miaomiao is a discerning person, and if she sees that you're deliberately approaching her, she'll easily become suspicious."
"You can rest assured about this. Master Su invited me to pave the way for Su Miaomiao. If she sees me, she will only approach me and will not think of anything else. But..." He changed the subject, his gaze fell on her face, his eyes drooping slightly.
"Madam, do you really have the heart to seduce another woman for your husband?"
Du Huaizhi: “…”
Han Qingli asked a similar question again three days later in front of the Su Mansion's villa.
She pulled Du Huaizhi aside and lowered her voice deliberately, "It's not good for you to let your husband seduce other women."
Li Siyu was wearing a light purple brocade robe and a purple gold crown on her head. She was dressed as gorgeously as a peacock, and her pair of peach blossom eyes smiled at everyone she met.
"It's okay, I don't mind." Du Huaizhi said lightly. Moreover, Du Huaizhi really wanted to tell her that there was no need to lower her voice, in fact, he could hear her.
On this side, Su Taifu came up with Su Miaomiao. Su Miaomiao was wearing a pink silk dress and had a sweet smile on her face. Her eyes only fell on Li Siyu vaguely at first, but she couldn't take her eyes off her for just a moment.
