Ye Shian also looked at Wang Xuening. She promised the Wang family that she would bring the person back.

"In that case, I won't leave either."

How could she explain to the two elders of the Wang family when she returned alone? Could it be that the young marquis had left the person behind?

Seeing that Ye Shian wanted to stay for her sake, Wang Xuening didn't want to have another person be restrained: "Second Miss."

"Second Miss, you should go back. The crops in the fields still need you to take care of them. I believe the young marquis will not treat me unfairly."

Ye Shian didn't worry much about the crops in the field, she just needed to tell others what to do. Wang Xuening was hinting to Ye Shian that those crops were her trump cards.

Ye Shian immediately understood what she meant. It would be of little use for him to stay. It would be better for him to go back and think about how to use his advantages to rescue Wang Xuening.

"Okay, since you said that, I'll go back first."

Wang Xuening nodded: "Please tell my parents that I'm fine here."

As soon as Ye Shian left, Lu Liu immediately took Wang Xuening to meet Lu Jinghui.

In the hall, Lu Jinghui stared at Wang Xuening without blinking.

Wang Xuening's palms were sweating from nervousness, but she forced herself to calm down.

The young marquis must have other purposes in keeping her here, so she must be careful in dealing with it.

Finally, Lu Jinghui spoke: "Are you working for the Ye family?"

"Yes."

"Talk about it."

Wang Xuening was also honest. She told Lu Jinghui everything in detail from the moment she met Ye Shian.

Of course, there were some things she was too smart to mention.

For example, if Ye Shian has a conflict with someone in the village, or if someone claims to be Ye Shian’s grandmother comes to cause trouble.

Of course, she would not say that there was a man named Mr. Wei who often came to Ye’s house.

These things are likely to become weapons against Ye Shian. Although she only works for the Ye family, the Ye family is still very good to them after all.

At this time, she also roughly guessed that the purpose of this marquis keeping her was just to get to know Ye Shian through her.

Apart from that, she can be said to be able to tell you everything she knows.

Listening to these trivialities, Lu Jinghui's impatience grew stronger and stronger.

"That's enough. I don't want to hear you talk about family matters."

Wang Xuening immediately shut up.

"Is there nothing else going on in their family?"

Wang Xuening shook her head.

"No enemies?"

Wang Xuening shook her head.

"No one you know closely?"

Wang Xuening shook her head again.

Seeing Wang Xuening like this, Lu Jinghui laughed: "One or two of you don't take me seriously, right?"

Wang Xue Ning bowed and said, "I really don't know. Although I work as a maid in the Ye residence, I just hang around in the kitchen every day. Naturally, I know very little about what happens in the backyard of the Ye residence."

"Didn't you hear any rumors?"

Wang Xuening shook her head.

She could feel the anger in Lu Jinghui's eyes, and she didn't dare to look up, for fear of angering Lu Jinghui again.

"Come here."

Wang Xuening took a step forward.

"Come to me."

Wang Xuening clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves. Ye Shian had saved her before. Now if Lu Jinghui wanted to do something else, who could come to save her?

One step, two steps, three steps...

As she got closer and closer to Lu Jinghui, Wang Xuening suddenly knelt on one knee and said, "My Lord, I am willing to be your ears."

"Oh?" Lu Jinghui became interested: "How do you become my ears? Tell me."

"My Lord has been asking about the Ye Residence since just now. Although I don't understand why my Lord is so interested in the Ye Residence, I can help my Lord find out the news about the Ye Residence."

Lu Jinghui sneered: "You have known their family for such a long time, but you don't know as much as I do. I asked you to be my ears, but you want me to become deaf, right?"

Wang Xuening's heart skipped a beat, something bad happened.

What we just did was flawless, but now it’s hard to stop.

She thought to herself, "In fact, there is an old man who often comes to the Ye residence. This old man likes delicious food very much. Every time he comes, the second girl will cook a table of dishes to entertain him. This fruit salad is also the old man's favorite. That day, I thought it was the old man who came, so I sent the fruit salad to you by mistake."

"Mr. Wei."

"That's what it's called."

The marquis was just testing her.

"How about this, I'll give you one more chance. Please speak again."

"Tell me when you've thought it over."

Wang Xuening was thinking in her mind, what should she say and what shouldn’t she say…

To be honest, this Marquis might use these things to attack Ye Shian. If she doesn't say anything, Lu Jinghui will think she is useless. No one dares to say how to deal with her at that time...

Wang Xuening took a deep breath, then looked up and stared at Lu Jinghui. She began to talk about Mr. Wei, observing Lu Jinghui's reaction as she spoke.

"The old man that I just mentioned comes here often. He likes the second girl very much. Every time he comes, he will go around the fields."

"This Lord already knows all this."

Lu Jinghui's eyes were cold: "If it's just nonsense, you don't have to say it."

She bit her lips tightly. She had no idea what Lu Jinghui knew and what he didn't know, and she didn't dare to say anything.

If she were asked to choose between Ye Shian and the Marquis, she would naturally choose Ye Shian. Even if the person opposite her was the extremely powerful Marquis, she would not dare to believe it.

Wang Xuening was kneeling a few steps away. Although she was from the country and worked from sunrise to sunset, her knees were stiff. Now that she was kneeling like this, her knees were already a little painful.

But she didn't dare to move and could only grit her teeth and hold on.

Seeing that she was kneeling without saying anything, Lu Jinghui stood up and walked to Wang Xuening. He stretched out his hand and personally helped Wang Xuening up.

He put his hand on hers and said, "I have always been kind to women. As long as you are willing to serve me, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Although Wang Xuening is a country girl, her appearance and temperament are not inferior to those ladies from wealthy families. If she can be used by him, she will always be a good chess piece.

"I am a stupid woman..."

"Shh..."

Before she finished speaking, Lu Jinghui's hand touched her lips: "This Marquis is optimistic about you."

Wang Xuening's heart sank to the bottom.

It seems that it is not so easy to go back to Changning Village.

As soon as Ye Shian entered the Ye residence, Wang rushed out. She held Ye Shian's hand with expectant eyes.

"Second Miss, where is my Xue Ning? Has she come back yet..."

"Miss Xue Ning can't come back for the time being."

"Can't come back?"

Wang was confused: "Why can't you come back? Didn't you say you would bring the person back?"

Ye Shian pursed his lips and said, "The Marquis really likes the fruit salad she made, so he kept her here."

Wang was stunned: "You mean the Marquis captured her to make her a fruit collector?"

Ye Shian nodded.

Wang, who had been worried the whole time, suddenly laughed happily when she heard this: "So that's how it is. Oh, oh, ha ha ha, I was scared to death. I thought something had happened."

"Don't worry, I'm here, I won't let anything happen to her."

Wang didn't hear the hidden meaning and kept speaking politely to Ye Shian.

"Oh, I'm so sorry for causing trouble to the second young lady. It was really because the scene yesterday was too scary that we old couple...ah..."

In the backyard, Ye Xianchun and Yu Xiuying knew that Ye Shian had returned, and they both came over here.

Seeing the two of them coming, Wang tactfully withdrew.

Ye Xianchun came up and grabbed Ye Shian and looked around: "Are you okay? What took you so long to come back? Did the young marquis embarrass you?"

Ye Shian shook his head: "Not bad."

"Okay, don't stand here."
