She replied, "Why would you say something like that to tease me, young master? You've managed Green Apple Pavilion so well; you must have seen all sorts of people. You can't possibly lack the ability to judge character."
“If he comes from an extraordinary background or has some connections, you couldn’t possibly not know him, and I wouldn’t have kidnapped him so easily and risked sending him here. Wouldn’t it have been better to just kill him?”
"Besides, when he wakes up tomorrow, he will know it's me without you having to say anything more."
"But don't worry, young master, he won't cause you any trouble."
"You just have someone throw him on the street, and he'll walk away on his own. You don't have to worry about him at all."
At the time, Lin Tang asked her why, and she said, "There is a type of person in this world who is strong-willed. If they accidentally lose their virginity to someone, they might choose to die to prove their innocence."
"He is not even afraid of death, but he will not choose to report to the authorities."
"Because the harm caused by rumors is far more frightening than death."
"The person I gave to you, young master, is cowardly and extremely concerned about his reputation. He doesn't have the courage to make a big fuss about it, so even if he finds out he's been taken advantage of, he'll just pretend nothing happened and slink away."
Every single word has come true.
Lin Tang was rather curious about this girl's background, wondering how she could come up with such a wicked idea!
"Go and investigate who that girl from yesterday is." He paused, then added, "And while you're at it, find out who that scoundrel is and what kind of grudge exists between them."
The boy replied "Yes" and quickly left.
Meanwhile, Shen Yaozu, the innocent victim they were investigating, was walking home in a daze, unaware that another storm was about to break for him.
He didn't come home last night, and Old Madam Shen was so worried that she didn't sleep all night.
Shen Cang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
Upon hearing from the servants that "the second young master has returned," he immediately ordered his men to tie him up, determined to give him a severe beating to teach him a lesson.
Old Madam Shen couldn't bear to part with it.
She naturally wouldn't allow it, saying, "What are you doing hitting me! You always know how to hit people, what if you hurt them?"
"Your child didn't come home all night, and you, as his father, didn't even ask him if something had happened!"
Shen Qiyin listened and echoed, "Yes, Father, what Grandmother said makes sense."
Upon hearing her voice, Shen Yaozu suddenly looked up and glared at her, as if he wanted to tear her apart.
Shen Qiyin met his hateful gaze and said, word by word, "Look at the bruises on Second Brother's neck, he must be injured. Please forgive him."
