Chapter 335: Murder (5)
The shopkeeper quickly ordered the waiter to bring Jing Chuchu in.
The guest room on the second floor was the last one, and the attic was all made of wood. Tao Yuan thanked the waiter and helped Jing Chuchu into the room. As soon as they entered the room, Jing Chuchu couldn't wait to take off her hat and veil, saying, "I'm suffocating."
"Miss, please take a break and have some tea." Taoyuan said, "I think Master Sun will be here soon."
"Come here and help me fix my hair." Jing Chuchu first fiddled with her hair in front of the bronze mirror. "I was wearing a bamboo hat all the way here, and my hair is all messed up."
"Miss, you are very beautiful." Taoyuan complimented: "You are even more beautiful today."
As they were talking, the door creaked open. Jing Chuchu and Taoyuan couldn't help but be startled, and then they heard a familiar voice: "Chuchu, it really is you."
Sun Cainan stood at the door, looking at Jing Chuchu eagerly. Jing Chuchu's face immediately turned red. She glanced at Tao Yuan with a reproachful look and said, "Go down."
"Okay," Taoyuan said with a smile, "Master Sun and Miss will talk first. I will be guarding the door. No one will come in."
These words seemed to hint at something. Jing Chuchu lowered her head. After Taoyuan left and closed the door, Sun Cainan took two steps forward and called out, "Chuchu."
Jing Chuchu hesitated for a moment, then looked up. Her gaze seemed to be filled with a twinkling of an eye, half melancholy and half attachment. If Shen Miao were lucky enough to be present at this moment, she would probably have to admire the authenticity of Jing Chuchu's acting.
Sun Cainan walked up to Jing Chuchu and said softly, "Chuchu, is it true that you and Shen Yuan are engaged?"
Jing Chuchu paused before nodding.
"You..." Sun Cainan took two steps back as if he had suffered a huge blow. Seeing this, Jing Chuchu's eyes immediately turned red and she timidly asked, "Are you angry?"
"No." Sun Cainan paused, then suddenly reached out and stroked Jing Chuchu's face. He said, "I've heard everything. It was that guy Chen Yuan who forced you to marry him. You had no choice but to marry him. I don't blame you, nor am I angry with you."
Hearing this, Jing Chuchu lowered her head, but no one saw the glint of pride in her eyes. Sun Cainan must have truly admired her, and even now that she was going to marry Chen Yuan, he still couldn't bear to blame her.
"Actually..." Jing Chuchu turned her head away. "My second cousin didn't touch me that day. It's just hard to explain in front of so many people." She lowered her head. "Young Master Sun, actually... I'm still innocent!"
Nothing actually happened between Jing Chuchu and Shen Yuan that day. It was just that hugging each other like that, seen by everyone, made it impossible to explain. Afterward, Jing Chuchu had someone check on her, and she was still a virgin. Shen Yuan and Old Madam Shen didn't know, so she kept quiet. Otherwise, Old Madam Shen and Shen Yuan would definitely make a big fuss. But when Sun Cainan revealed this, the situation was completely different. Men always hope their women are innocent. If Jing Chuchu and Shen Yuan really had something going on, Sun Cainan would have felt a little uneasy. But if nothing happened, Sun Cainan would have felt even more compassion for Jing Chuchu.
Sure enough, Sun Cainan was stunned when he heard this: "What?"
Jing Chuchu raised her head and said tearfully, "A girl's body should naturally be given to the one she loves. My second cousin and I just had a misunderstanding, but there is no other way out in the future. I, I met Master Sun too late. Does Master Sun dislike me in his heart?"
Sun Cainan pulled Jing Chuchu into his arms, soothing her gently, "How could I possibly dislike you? I love you, I care about you, I like you!" A flicker of ecstasy flashed in Sun Cainan's eyes. He had assumed that since Jing Chuchu had given her innocence to Chen Yuan, sleeping with her again would simply be a way of redeeming her. Who knew Jing Chuchu was still a virgin? This truly surprised him.
