Upon hearing this news, Chen Siyuan could no longer remain calm.
General Qiao was not at home, so all matters were handled by Madam Qiao.
Chen Siyuan was very alarmed.
Who killed Aunt Guo?
Could it be Qiao Yuchen?
This seems to align with Qiao Yuchen's way of doing things.
Thinking of what the owner of Yuji Pawnshop had said, and then of what she and Wang Yong had said, it seemed that everything was progressing too fast.
Then I thought of what Qiao Yuchen said about 'three days'. Maybe something big will happen in these three days.
Chen Siyuan stayed in Beiyuan for two days with a troubled heart.
These past two days have been extremely difficult for her.
I hear news from the outside world every day.
Many people died, seemingly insignificant individuals, but based on her memories from her previous life, Chen Siyuan knew they were all people affiliated with the Fourth Prince.
The Fourth Prince is completely finished this time.
The fourth prince died a terrible death in his previous life, and I learned this from Song Ji. The rumors outside were much more pleasant.
Just as Chen Siyuan's heart was pounding, Qiao Yuchen returned home that night covered in blood.
"Yu Chen—"
Chen Siyuan thought he wouldn't come back. She had just washed up and was about to go to sleep when she saw Qiao Yuchen arrive covered in blood, and she was shocked.
Chunlan and Chunping had seen their share of big scenes and were used to fighting and killing. When they saw Qiao Yuchen looking like he had been pulled out of a pool of blood, they were equally terrified and turned pale.
Qiao Yuchen quickly came forward and hugged the woman tightly in his arms. Only in this way could he be sure that the woman in his arms was safe.
Chen Siyuan was indeed startled at first, but then she felt that she could hardly breathe, so she quickly slapped away.
"Cough cough—"
Qiao Yuchen noticed Chen Siyuan's unease and realized that he had gotten too excited.
Qiao Yuchen released Chen Siyuan, then saw the blood on the woman's body and quickly took a step back. "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
The man ran away after saying that.
It took Chen Siyuan and her two maids a long time to react.
The three of them then got busy.
Chen Siyuan's undergarments were covered in blood and were unusable. She then had to take a bath and clean up the bloodstains on the floor. It was half an hour later that everything was taken care of.
Qiao Yuchen arrived again, just like before.
It seems that the bloody scene I just witnessed was just my imagination.
Chunlan and Chunping have adapted this time.
Without Jiang's mother reminding them, the two of them wisely left.
Qiao Yuchen reached out and pulled the woman into his arms.
"Did I scare you just now?" Overwhelmed with rage, having killed many people and inadvertently learned some secrets, he led his demonic sect in a massacre at the Fourth Prince's residence.
Yes, it was a massacre.
There wasn't a single living person left in the entire Fourth Prince's residence.
Even the dogs kept inside couldn't escape.
No, are you alright?
Having calmed down from their earlier excitement, they were now able to look at each other with composure.
"No."
"That's good." Chen Siyuan said with a sigh of relief.
Qiao Yuchen was satisfied with the expression on the woman's face, and he held her tightly, refusing to let go.
The two of them slept in each other's arms that night.
The next day, Chen Siyuan woke up after a good night's sleep, and opened her eyes the moment Qiao Yuchen moved.
"You need to go out."
"I still have some things to take care of, wait for me at home."
"Um."
Chen Siyuan, wearing a coat, saw the man to the door and watched him walk out of the courtyard. For some reason, Chen Siyuan felt that the air was really nice at that moment, and she could smell a strange floral fragrance around her.
After being served by two maids and washing up, and having breakfast, Chen Siyuan went to see Jiang Ma herself. By then, Jiang Ma's health had improved significantly.
Chen Siyuan was relieved.
The two talked for a while, telling Jiang's mother to take good care of her injuries.
When Chen Siyuan came out, she stretched her body and asked two maids to bring her the account book.
I couldn't calm down for a long time, but now I can.
It seemed that all the unpleasantness had vanished, and she was in the mood to look at the account books.
After looking through an account book, he noticed the two maids standing beside him and asked, "You cleaned up very well last night."
Upon hearing this, Chunlan and Chunping immediately knelt on the ground.
"This servant deserves to die."
"This servant deserves to die."
"Where did you go wrong?" Chen Siyuan asked again, without rushing them to get up.
“We…we…” Chunping stammered, unable to finish her sentence.
Chunlan was much more direct, saying, "It's because Wang Yong gave us these things that they were handled so cleanly."
"Wang Yong?" Chen Siyuan laughed. It was him again. "You've been getting quite close to Wang Yong lately?"
It was meant as a joke, but it made Chunlan blush.
Chen Siyuan suddenly became interested and glanced at Chunping next to her. "Why do I smell something amiss?"
"Young Madam, Young Madam, it's not like that, please let me explain."
Chen Siyuan was surprised that Chunlan had such feelings for Wang Yong. Just as she was wondering what to say, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her and knelt down on the ground.
When Chen Siyuan realized it was Wang Yong, she was completely surprised.
This time, they don't need to say anything; their relationship is already confirmed.
Chen Siyuan, holding herself up, looked at Wang Yong kneeling on the ground and asked, "You like Chunlan?"
These words were direct. Chunlin glanced at Wang Yong and blushed.
At this moment, she was also nervous, hoping that Wang Yong would speak, but also worried that what he said would not be what she wanted to hear.
Chen Siyuan didn't give Wang Yong a chance to speak and said directly, "Chunlan is my maid. I have always treated her as my sister. I will give her a generous dowry when she gets married. However, I have one request."
