"Actually, I feel that Sister Su was impersonated and infiltrated into the Duke's mansion."
When Liu Jiaojiao said this, she gripped her handkerchief tightly, glanced timidly at Shen Changji, and bit her lip.
He looked both afraid and determined to tell the truth.
Shen Changji raised his eyes, his voice neither cold nor indifferent: "You have evidence?"
“I’ve sent people to find the evidence! Shen Lang, I know you don’t believe it when you hear this either. At first, I didn’t believe it either, just like you. After all, Sister Su looks so delicate and doesn’t seem like someone with a lot of scheming.”
Liu Jiaojiao's soft voice revealed helplessness, her eyes were red, but her tone was firm.
He gave a long, quiet "Mmm," and said, "I understand."
Seeing Chen Changji's somber expression, Liu Jiaojiao felt a surge of smugness.
But she still feigned a look of heartache and grabbed Shen Changji's sleeve, "Shen Lang, if that's really the case, then... what do you plan to do with Sister Su?"
"The Duke's Mansion has treated her well over the years. If that's really the case, then it will definitely be dealt with seriously."
At the very least, she should atone with her body.
His deep, quiet voice was cold, yet it carried a chilling murderous intent.
Hearing this made Liu Jiaojiao feel much better.
Discovering that Su Miao was faking her identity was not difficult for her.
Most importantly, it would be a good thing to get rid of this woman under the cover of silence.
She sighed softly with a hint of regret, "I hope it won't turn out the way I think. It's a pity that Su-meimei is so wonderful and beautiful."
Chen Changji said, "You are kind-hearted."
"I just don't want things to be peaceful in the Duke's mansion. Besides, I'm practically a local now, so I can't just stand by and watch bad things happen."
Besides... Shen Lang, you trust me so much.
As Liu Jiaojiao spoke, she looked at Shen Changji's hands hanging down at his sides and couldn't help but want to clench them.
But when she met his somber and silent expression, she didn't dare to reach out and pull him.
I was terrified... terrified that I might inadvertently offend him.
“I know you’ve always been a good person,” Chen Changji said again.
"Will Mr. Chen stay for dinner tonight?" Liu Jiaojiao asked tentatively, her face flushed.
"No, Xie Qin's birthday is coming up soon, and I have other things to do."
Liu Jiaojiao suddenly remembered and felt a little embarrassed.
"That's true, then go ahead and get busy, Shen Lang... I'll wait for you tonight."
Liu Jiaojiao's voice gradually faded, carrying a different kind of implication.
He remained silent and walked straight out.
Liu Jiaojiao reached out to hold the door, and couldn't help but glance at Chen Changjiu's back a few more times.
This man... she's liked him since she was a child, and now, she's finally going to marry him as she's wished.
Liu Jiaojiao's lips curled slightly, a smile on her face.
...
Shen Changji returned to the Duke's mansion, and while waiting for Shen Xing to arrive, Gu Ying reported the situation.
Hearing this from the side, Fang Xing couldn't help but say, "Master, it seems that Miss Liu Jiaojiao has relaxed her guard quite a bit."
"Like boiling a frog in lukewarm water, no rush."
He stroked the medicine pouch in his hand calmly and slowly before speaking.
Lone Eagle: "In addition... Butler Liu hasn't shown any intention of recruiting anyone recently."
"Your mouth is so tightly sealed?" A dark glint appeared in Shen Changji's eyes.
"yes."
"Then keep him locked up."
The longer time went on, the more his suspicions were confirmed.
Shen Changji couldn't help but think of what Liu Jiaojiao had just told him: Su Miao wasn't the real Su Miao; she had infiltrated the group with a fake identity.
He couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Liu Jiaojiao became anxious.
He sat languidly in the main seat, his eyes gradually dimming, a distinct smile playing on his lips.
...
Xie Qin's birthday was fast approaching, and early in the morning, Su Miao took the prepared gifts and headed to the Xie residence.
She hadn't expected Xie Qin to be waiting for her at the door in person.
Xie Qin was in a very good mood when she saw her.
"Come on, give me the gift. Is it heavy? Why are you carrying it?" Xie Qin quickly took the congratulatory gift from Su Miao's hands.
"It's your birthday, so naturally I have to give it to you personally to show my sincerity."
"The fact that you came already shows a lot of sincerity!"
As she spoke, Xie Qin couldn't help but glance at Su Miao a few more times.
No matter how you look at it, Su Miao has everything he likes. Besides her appearance, he also likes her inner qualities.
"You ate some candy today, your mouth is so sweet?" Su Miao couldn't help but tease.
"Yes, yes, I still have some of the ones you gave me last time. I ate one as soon as I got up this morning," Xie Qin replied with a smile.
The two were in a very pleasant mood, but Chen Changji, who was standing not far away, saw a different story.
Liu Jiaojiao couldn't help but say, "Sister Su and Prince Xie have such a good relationship. If Sister Su were really Sister Su, that would be great... It's a bit of a shock to my understanding of her."
"People will always have selfish desires."
Upon hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao's smile froze on her lips, and she felt inexplicably flustered.
But she still smiled and said, "Yes, but my feelings for Shen Lang will never change."
Shen Yueyin arrived just then and, upon hearing this, couldn't help but step forward and bump into Liu Jiaojiao.
"I'm sorry! I haven't seen my brother for several days, and I've been missing him quite a bit."
Shen Yueyin disagreed.
Because she was in public, Liu Jiaojiao couldn't afford to make a scene, so she could only pretend to be magnanimous.
"It's alright. Shen Lang has been keeping me company lately. I was just being a bit rude."
Shen Yueyin couldn't possibly be as shameless as Liu Jiaojiao, so she rolled her eyes without hesitation.
"I'm going to find Sister Su!"
Just as Shen Yueyin was about to go in, she heard several voices discussing something.
"Have you heard? Young Master Xie took Princess Su to meet his parents. Their wedding must be just around the corner!"
