Chapter 669: Don’t hurt the relationship between you two cousins ​​because of me

Xingxing's questions left Zhao Yaoniang speechless.

She could only weakly bite out a sentence: "No matter what, I owe the general a life-saving debt..."

Xing Xing's eyes turned cold.

She gave Zhao Yaoniang a chance.

Xing Xing clapped her hands and asked someone to bring the person out.

Two guards came up, carrying a skinny guy.

The man's eyes were dull, but when he saw Zhao Yaoniang at the gate of the general's mansion, his eyes lit up, and he shouted "Sister" in a hoarse voice and rushed towards Zhao Yaoniang.

Zhao Yao's mother never expected that Xingxing, who looked like a spoiled young lady, could be so cruel and capture her gambling brother!

Zhao Yaoniang had finally gotten rid of her gambling addict brother Zhao Caisheng!

Zhao Caisheng looked as thin as a stick, but his hands were surprisingly strong. He grabbed Zhao Yaoniang tightly and cursed, "You cruel bitch! What did your parents tell you when they died? I, your brother, was almost dead, and you actually left me and ran away!"

Zhao Yaoniang was terrified, and she struggled to get out of Zhao Caisheng's hands: "Go away! Let me go! You rotten gambler!"

Zhao Caisheng laughed: "For so many years, when I won the game, you followed me and ate delicious food and drank spicy drinks. Why didn't you say I was a bad gambler at that time?! Now I lost the game and need your help, but you kept calling me a bad gambler and ran away so fast! There is no such good thing in the world! Let's go! I asked, and Boss Sun is willing to spend fifty taels to buy you! As long as you help me make back my original money, I will go to Boss Sun to redeem you! Sister, why are you so ignorant?!"

Zhao Yaoniang cried out, "Boss Sun has already beaten four concubines to death! You are sending me to death!"

However, this lousy gambler, Mr. Zhao, had already gone crazy with gambling: "For so many years, you have been eating and drinking from me, and now I ask you to sacrifice yourself for my return, but you are unwilling to do so!"

Zhao Yaoniang cried even harder.

She struggled desperately, but Zhao Caisheng still pulled her arm forward. In despair, Zhao Yaoniang suddenly saw Xingxing standing beside her. She didn't know where she got the strength from, and she suddenly broke free from Zhao Caisheng's grip and threw herself at Xingxing's feet: "Princess! Princess, please save me!"

Zhao Caisheng was obviously still very afraid of Xingxing. He stood half a meter away from Xingxing, not daring to take another step forward. He smiled slyly and said, "Princess, you brought me here just to let me take my sister back. Don't worry, I will take her back right now and will not cause you any trouble..."

As he said that, Zhao Caisheng was about to step forward to grab Zhao Yaoniang.

Xing Xing raised her hands.

The guards on both sides stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Caisheng's arms.

Zhao Caisheng was confused: "Princess, what do you mean?"

Zhao Yaoniang looked at Xingxing with a beating heart.

Xing Xing looked down at Zhao Yao Niang and said softly, "It's not okay for you to put your hope of survival on others. You saved my elder brother, but you almost killed my elder sister-in-law and my newborn niece. I didn't want to care about you...but my elder sister-in-law heard about your story and wanted me to give you one last chance. She said that it should be a blessing for our Miao Miao."

Zhao Yaoniang shuddered slightly.

Xing Xing looked at Mr. Zhao who was being held by the guards and said, "Throw him in front of the casino. Whether he lives or dies depends on his luck."

Caisheng Zhao's face turned pale and he still wanted to beg for mercy, but Xingxing had someone cover his mouth and drag him away.

Xingxing looked at Zhao Yaoniang again, and Zhao Yaoniang was sitting paralyzed on the ground.

She was not stupid, so she could naturally see that Princess Fusui was giving her a warning!

Princess Fusui could either capture her brother or throw him directly to the people in the casino.

There are thousands of ways to deal with her without getting your hands dirty.

Zhao Yaoniang felt her heart beating violently, and she kowtowed to Xingxing repeatedly: "...Princess, Princess, I understand. From now on, I will never harass you again."

Zhao Yao's mother was so scared that she ran away with her pants wet.

When everyone saw that the excitement had died down, they dispersed.

After the others left, there was still a figure waiting there, and that person even strode forward.

Xingxing took a look and frowned slightly.

It turned out to be——Dou Chengsong.

Previously, Lou Ruhui had admired him, but somehow, Dou Chengsong seemed to have fallen in love with someone else and fell in love with Yu Mingzhu. Lou Ruhui came to Xingxing and cried bitterly, but after that, Lou Ruhui never mentioned Dou Chengsong again.

Xingxing was also stunned when she suddenly saw him.

Dou Chengsong saw that Xingxing had also seen him, so he took a few steps forward and bowed to Xingxing: "...Princess."

Xing Xing asked politely, "Mr. Dou, what's the matter?"

Dou Chengsong couldn't help but say, "I came to see the princess without permission. I did have something to do, but I didn't expect to see this scene... The princess was too cruel. That woman was so pitiful. How could the princess do this..."

Dou Chengsong also frowned, clearly disagreeing.

Xingxing just thought it was a little funny.

Xing Xing tilted her head and suddenly asked, "I remember Mr. Dou mentioned that there is a younger sister in the family?"

Dou Chengsong hesitated for a moment, then nodded, still a little puzzled: "Indeed, I wonder if the princess mentioned my sister, right?"

Xing Xing nodded: "Let's make a hypothesis. When your mother gave birth to your sister, someone came and almost caused your mother to have a difficult delivery, and almost killed your sister. What would Master Dou do?"

Dou Chengsong was not a fool. When he saw Xingxing suddenly comparing his mother with his sister, he immediately realized that the woman had almost killed Xingxing's family.

In this case, it's not surprising that Xing Xing acted just now...

But Dou Chengsong still felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but said, "...Then the princess can explain it to me directly. It's too rude to use my mother and my sister as examples..."

Zhaoying beside Xingxing was angry. But Xingxing was not angry. She just looked at Dou Chengsong and said, "Mr. Dou, you see, I was just giving an example, but you are so angry. What's more, this incident really happened to my family? It shows that if the knife doesn't fall on yourself, you won't feel the pain. Next time, before you stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at others, please be more careful. Otherwise, it will be really annoying."

Dou Chengsong's face flushed all of a sudden: "No, I..."

Xingxing was too lazy to listen to Dou Chengsong's explanation any further.

She was willing to associate with Dou Chengsong in the past because her sister Lou had a fondness for him.

Now that her sister Lou has moved on from this relationship, Xingxing is too lazy to pay attention to him!

Xingxing turned around and tried to leave, but Dou Chengsong, blushing, hurriedly called out to her, "...Princess, no, it's my fault. I, I really have something to ask you..."

Xing Xing turned around and looked at Dou Chengsong: "What's the matter?"

Dou Chengsong showed a bit of embarrassment on his face: "...I want to ask the princess to help me pass a message to Miss Lou, asking her not to blame Miss Yu. Miss Yu is innocent and kind, and knows nothing. If you want to blame someone, blame me. Don't hurt the relationship between them as cousins."

Xingxing now had three question marks on her head.

No, wait?

What?

What does "Don't hurt the relationship between the cousins" mean?

What is going on?

Xing Xing frowned, very reluctant to mention her sister Lou to Dou Chengsong in public.

The problem is, after Dou Chengsong said this, he actually looked like he was about to bow and say goodbye.

Xing Xing took a deep breath and said, "...Mr. Dou, are you free? Let's go to the teahouse and have a good chat."

Dou Chengsong hesitated for a moment: "...I have an appointment to copy books for the bookstore owner today. How about you wait for two hours and then go to the bookstore to find me?"

Xing Xing took another deep breath and looked at Dou Chengsong again: "Okay!"

Dou Chengsong left.

However, the more Xing Xing thought about it, the more confused she felt, so she simply had someone harness up a carriage and headed straight for the Marquis of Mingguang's Mansion.

When they arrived at the gate of Mingguang Marquis Mansion, Xingxing asked Zhaoying to deliver her visiting card. Soon, the steward of Mingguang Marquis Mansion opened the door with a respectful look on his face and welcomed Xingxing's carriage in.

Xingxing went to see the wife of Marquis Mingguang first.

The wife of Marquis Mingguang is the daughter of the old couple of Duke Xin. Duke Xin treats Xingxing very well, and Xingxing also feels very friendly towards the wife of Marquis Mingguang.

The wife of Marquis Mingguang had a worried look on her face. Seeing Xingxing was like seeing a life-saving straw. She held Xingxing's hand and said, "... I don't know what happened to Huijie. She locked herself in her room when she came back last night. The child is always lively and cheerful, and rarely acts like this. I asked her, but she didn't say anything. She just had a pair of red eyes like rotten peaches, and told me and her father not to worry... Princess, tell me, as parents, how can we not worry?"

"It's a good thing you're here, Princess. You two sisters have a good relationship. I'd like to trouble you to help me check what happened to Sister Hui."

The wife of Marquis Mingguang had a sad face. She held Xingxing's hand and sighed.

Xingxing naturally agreed, and comforted the wife of Marquis Mingguang before going to Lou Ruhui's courtyard.

Lou Ruhui knew in advance that Xingxing was coming, so she had already washed her face and even had a smile on her face, looking very natural.

If those eyes weren't still swollen, he could have hidden it from others.

"Xingxing, why are you here?" Lou Ruhui tried her best to speak in a normal tone, even showing her dimples. "I heard that your family finally had a girl. The baby bathing ceremony two days ago was very lively. I was thinking that after your sister-in-law is out of confinement, I would also go to visit your precious girl..."

Xing Xing felt inexplicably sad when she saw Lou Ruhui pretending to be normal. She took Lou Ruhui's hand and said, "Sister Lou, did something happen between you and Yu Mingzhu?"

Lou Ruhui lost her voice and asked, "How do you know?"

As soon as she said this, Lou Ruhui realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, and a look of regret appeared on her face.

But Lou Ruhui was open-minded by nature. Since she had let the cat out of the bag, she simply told Xing Xing the truth: "...Actually, there was nothing else to say. I went out to play yesterday and saw my cousin Mingzhu and Mr. Dou together. I couldn't help but say a few more words, and my cousin Mingzhu looked shocked. Mr. Dou happened to come out and say something, saying that he was wrong and asked us not to quarrel...Anyway, you know my temper, so I just said a few sarcastic words to Mr. Dou, and we ended up parting on bad terms."

Lou Ruhui looked upset.

Xing Xing exclaimed, "No wonder. No wonder Dou Chengsong came to my door today and asked me to tell Sister Lou something, saying something like don't hurt the relationship between you two cousins. I'm really confused."

When Lou Ruhui heard that Dou Chengsong had actually gone to Xingxing to pass on the message because of this, her face turned red with anger: "How could he--"

Lou Ruhui was so angry that she could no longer sit still. She stood up and walked around the room again and again.

Xing Xing grabbed Lou Ruhui and said, "...Sister Lou, please tell me something from your heart. How do you feel about Dou Chengsong right now..."

Lou Ruhui was very embarrassed and stamped her feet: "I had completely let it go before. When I saw him with my cousin Mingzhu yesterday, he was just venting his anger..."

Her eyes grew redder with rage.

"He said that as if I was going to compete with my cousin Mingzhu for him! I'm not that kind of person!" Lou Ruhui felt insulted.

Xing Xing was relieved: "I knew that Sister Lou was very carefree and would not hang herself on a crooked tree. I was not very happy when he said such inexplicable things outside today... I wanted to ask him to go to the teahouse to talk, but he told me to wait for him for two hours and go after he finished copying the books. I'm going to find him and ask him clearly later!"

Xingxing complained harshly to Lou Ruhui.

Lou Ruhui was also very angry.

She clenched her fists and made up her mind: "I'll go with you later. Let's ask him carefully!"

About two hours later, as Dou Chengsong walked out of the bookstore, he was "invited" to the elegant room in the teahouse by the guards brought by Xingxing.

Dou Chengsong was a little unhappy at first, but when he saw that there was not only Xingxing but also Lou Ruhui sitting in the elegant room, his face froze. After a long while, he sighed and bowed to Lou Ruhui: "Miss Lou, I only have Miss Yu in my heart. We are not destined to be together. Please don't..."

After hearing these words, Lou Ruhui almost got so angry that her mouth twisted!

This is

Xing Xing immediately said, "What do you mean? My sister Lou came here with me, why do you look like my sister Lou is trying to pester you?"

Dou Chengsong showed some embarrassment on his face: "That was a misunderstanding on my part."

Lou Ruhui could no longer bear it: "Mr. Dou! What do you mean by the words you asked Xingxing to bring to me? Did I do something wrong and you misunderstood me? My cousin Mingzhu and I have a broken relationship because of you? Why would we have a broken relationship because of you?"

Dou Chengsong didn't expect Lou Ruhui to say this, and his face became even more embarrassed.

He coughed and said, "...Miss Luo, just assume that I misunderstood."

This made Lou Ruhui even more crazy!

It just so happened that Lou Ruhui did have feelings for him in the past, but she was not the kind of person who would wait for death to cling to someone else. After finding out that Dou Chengsong liked Yu Mingzhu, she cried for a while and decided to withdraw.

But at this moment, Dou Chengsong said this!

It was as if she was the kind of person who would fight to the death and compete with others for him at all costs!

She, Lou Ruhui, was a girl who was pampered and raised by the Marquis of Mingguang and his wife. She would definitely not do such a thing to lower her own status!
