The Regent secretly read the diary, and I went from being a cannon fodder to being the group's

Chen Yan was frightened instantly and swallowed nervously.

"Well...I didn't hear it all...just...a little bit!"

Shen Wanwan watched the two people playing charades, and she understood everything clearly.

[Can these two really win the battle together? Their IQs are on the same level! ]

Xie Jingchuan: ...

This reminded Xie Jingchuan how he was led into this ditch by Chen Yan.

"You heard it wrong, but that's not important. What's important is, why did you quarrel with Miss Chu?"

Chen Yan was stunned. "This... is... um... a disagreement! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will go out and find her right away!"

Shen Wanwan: "I'll go!"

Xie Jingchuan gave Chen Yan a look that said "you're in trouble" and followed Shen Wanwan to chase after him.

Chen Yan froze in place for a moment.

Thinking about everything that just happened.

No! What did I do wrong?

-

At this moment, Chu Shiqiao woke up slowly in a dilapidated temple.

As soon as he opened his eyes, a hideous face suddenly enlarged under the flickering candlelight, like an evil spirit from hell.

"Ah!!!" she screamed and struggled frantically, trying to kick away the horror in front of her.

But when she saw the face clearly, her fear instantly turned into anger and confusion.

"Chu Tangxi, are you crazy? How dare you do this to me!" Chu Shiqiao struggled with his tightly bound hands, glaring angrily.

After Chu Shiqiao and Chen Yan had a few arguments, they thought about going out for a walk to relax.

But he didn't expect to be knocked unconscious by someone from the back of the head.

She moved her helped body and looked around. She had never been here before!

It looks like a temple!

Chu Tangxi looked at Chu Shiqiao's angry expression, but was not moved at all.

Chu Tangxi was unmoved. She smiled coldly, with crazy hatred flashing in her eyes: "Chu Shiqiao, do you think you are still the beloved Miss Chu? Now, you are like a lamb to be slaughtered, and you can only let me do whatever I want!"

Chu Shiqiao's heart sank, she knew that she was in a bad situation.

She tried to stay calm and analyze the situation.

Chu Tangxi had obviously been planning this for a long time.

She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calmer: "Chu Tangxi, there is no deep hatred between us. Why did you do this? What do you want to do?"

Chu Tangxi sneered: "What are you doing? Don't think I don't know that what happened between me and my elder brother was done by you! I will get back all the grievances I have suffered these days from you!"

Chu Shiqiao looked at Chu Tangxi's face and saw that the scratch scars were still there, but were covered with thick powder.

Chu Shiqiao was shocked. She didn't expect that Chu Tangxi would hold a grudge against her for this and even kidnap her for revenge.

"Chu Tangxi, you keep saying that I harmed you, but do you have any evidence? Besides, what does what happened between you and your elder brother have to do with me?" Chu Shiqiao tried to defend himself, but Chu Tangxi remained unmoved.

Chu Tangxi walked up to Chu Shiqiao, lowered his head and leaned close to her face, his tone full of threats: "Even if it wasn't you, this matter was caused by you. It was I who fell in love with Shen Baizhou first. Why did my parents want to marry you to him? I don't accept it!"

Chu Shiqiao felt a strong sense of fear and uneasiness in her heart. She gritted her teeth and tried to stay calm: "If you like him, then marry him! I don't have any feelings for him!"

Chu Tangxi seemed to be irritated by her stubbornness: "I will marry him, before that! You... owe me, I will get it back from you!"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion outside the temple.

A few thugs with disheveled hair and ragged clothes rushed in aggressively, holding sticks.

They looked at Chu Shiqiao greedily, with lewd smiles on their faces.

Chu Tangxi stood aside with a smug smile on her face. She pointed at Chu Shiqiao and said to the gangsters, "This is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now, you can play with her however you want! Just don't kill her."

The gangsters became excited upon hearing this. They rubbed their hands and approached Chu Shiqiao.

Chu Shiqiao was startled. She took a few steps back, trying to keep her distance, and threatened, "How dare you! I am the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If you dare to touch me, the Prime Minister's Mansion will not let you go!"

However, the thugs didn't seem to care about her threat. They approached step by step with a grin.

At this moment, Chu Tangxi suddenly spoke. She sneered and said to Chu Shiqiao, "Don't worry, sister. Your future life will be even worse than that of a disgraced sister like me! I will let you enjoy every moment of the next two days!"

-

Shen Wanwan and Xie Jingchuan walked around the street but couldn't find Shi Qiao.

The person sent to the Prime Minister's Residence also came to report, but the person did not return!

Shen Wanwan began to get a little worried. She frowned and said to Xie Jingchuan, "Is anything wrong? Shi Qiao is out there alone. What if she gets into danger?"

Xie Jingchuan comforted her, "Don't worry, Wanwan. Miss Chu is smart and nothing will happen to her."

Coincidentally, the servant who was sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion to get information came running in hastily, panting and saying, "My Lord, Princess, something bad has happened! Miss Chu has returned home, but the situation is a bit strange."

"How did you go back? Who were you with?" Shen Wanwan asked anxiously.

Zizhu replied, "It was the eldest son Chu Haoting and the second daughter Chu Tangxi. The three of them came back together. And, it was said that they had an unpleasant incident."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanwan frowned even more tightly.

She asked doubtfully, "Did they go back together? Could it be that the two of them captured Qiao Qiao and brought him back? How is that possible!"

Xie Jingchuan also felt that something was a little strange. He asked in a deep voice, "Did the person who came to report tell me if there was anything wrong with Miss Qiao's expression?"

Zizhu thought about it for a moment and replied, "The person who came to report it said that there was nothing wrong with Miss Shi Qiao's expression. Instead, it was Chu Tangxi who was a little unhappy!"

Shen Wanwan and Xie Jingchuan looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

Shen Wanwan couldn't help but said, "No, I have to go see Qiao Qiao. What if she really encounters something?"

Having said that, she turned around and prepared to walk towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Seeing this, Xie Jingchuan quickly grabbed her.

Xie Jingchuan gently persuaded, "Wanwan, if you are really worried, then let's go and take a look?"

This is an irony!

It's getting so dark now. You just said it was getting late and we should go home. Why are you being so kind now?

But Shen Wanwan didn't hear it.

She actually stretched her head and looked at the sky outside the palace.

Just when Xie Jingchuan blamed himself for being too talkative, Shen Wanwan spoke up, "Forget it, let's go tomorrow!"

After saying goodbye to Xie Jingchuan, Shen Wanwan yawned and prepared to return to Lanyue Courtyard.

Xie Jingchuan's voice came from behind, "Wanwan, why don't you pick a few maids you like in this mansion and have them serve you in your courtyard?"

Shen Wanwan didn't look back, but just raised her hand to say goodbye.

"No need, I have hands and feet, I can take care of myself!"
