Enraged, he stopped struggling.
"Ji Yu! Did you do all of this?!"
Ji Yu lowered her eyelids and remained silent.
Ke Yu sneered, wanting to struggle forward and tear this hypocrite apart.
The burly man behind him held him in place, preventing him from struggling free.
Ke Yu was panting heavily, her eyes filled with hatred.
"He's just a male prostitute from a brothel, yet he dares to have thoughts of monopolizing the Marquis."
So jealous, so vicious, and so hypocritical—when the young marquis discovers your true colors, how many days do you think you'll have left to live?
Ji Yu still didn't glance at Ke Yu.
At first glance, it seemed as if they were humbly listening to him.
Ke Yu was instead enraged by this scene.
"You don't need to put on an act in front of me. Dispersing the young marquis's entire backyard, and even getting rid of me, was all your idea, wasn't it?!"
Lanzhi stood to the side and gestured for the two men to pull the person away.
Ke Yu was persistent, her voice becoming shrill.
"Answer me! Was it you?! You were behind all of this, weren't you?!"
Finally, Ke Yu, who had been standing there motionless, raised her eyelids and looked at him.
He smiled slightly.
"It's me."
His straightforward answer startled Ke Yu for a moment.
"You've admitted it all?"
Ji Yu stood there, a gust of wind blowing, lifting a strand of her hair.
Then I heard him say
"I was planning to give you a few more days."
Just yesterday, you were wearing clothes similar to mine, sitting in the pavilion.
They're trying to imitate me to distract the young marquis.
"So, she's caught the young marquis's eye now, hasn't she?"
Ke Yu didn't say anything.
Ji Yu walked up to him,
The sound was light and airy
“You are really an eyesore. I was going to kill you. It is only because you spared my life and left the Marquis’s mansion that I am merciful.”
Ke Yu froze as those dark, unfathomable eyes stared at him.
Ji Yu looked away, lowered her head, and straightened a corner of her clothes.
"Since you're the one who brought this out, then clean up the whole backyard while you're at it."
Ji Yu spoke casually and leisurely.
"If anything happens to them in the future, it will all be your fault."
Ke Yu staggered, his earlier anger completely gone.
On the contrary, there was some fear.
He kept taking steps backward.
His gaze fell on Lan Zhi beside him
"You heard everything?! This was all his scheme! Quickly summon the young marquis and get rid of this vicious and hypocritical man!!"
Lanzhi kept her head down, took a step back, and stood there.
There was no follow-up.
She became very nervous upon hearing this.
Unfortunately, a month ago, Lanzhi had told the young marquis that she had discovered that Ji Yu was not as harmless as he appeared.
The young marquis remained calm and even told her that she didn't need to report to him no matter what she saw of Ji Yu in the future.
In other words, the young marquis knew all along that this Lord Ji Yu was not as harmless as he appeared.
But alas, the young marquis was willing to spoil him.
Finally, in despair, Ke Yu was dragged away.
Ji Yu glanced at Lan Zhi and smiled slightly.
Then look away
"Shouldn't the young marquis be heading back by now?"
"Yes, Lord Ji Yu."
"Preparing meals"
"Yes, Lord Ji Yu."
Lanzhi spoke with utmost respect.
Even if they had been very respectful a month ago.
Having just experienced that scene, Lanzhi spoke even more respectfully than before.
His respect was tinged with a hint of fear.
Lanzhi was able to withstand the test of the deceased princess, which reassured the princess to place her by the young marquis's side and watch over him.
