"No, it's not what you think. I didn't..."

"More than 20 pairs of eyes in my Rong Mansion saw it clearly. Fan Qianxi, are you trying to say that everyone in my Rong Mansion is blind?"

What was that sound? Chu Ci woke up with a start. Did he travel through time again? No, he couldn't be so unlucky. Looking around, he found that the blanket he was wearing was gone, but the cushion was still there. The little cutie he fed yesterday and his cheap husband were also in front of him.

So, what’s going on?

"Husband, where did this thing blocking the way come from? What's its relationship with the Fan family?"

Fan Jingrui's face was gloomy, and he secretly hated his wife for being so heartless under any circumstances.

However, thinking of her abilities, he had to suppress the discomfort in his heart and explained: "My eldest sister, Fan Qianxi. The Rong family said that she...had an affair with someone." The word "affair" seemed difficult to say.

As for Chu Ci, Fan Qianxi's three words made him want to slap himself in the face. How could he only care about making money and forget about this poor sister?

Fan Qianxi, the first child of the third generation of the Fan family, was raised by Old Madam Fan since childhood.

However, she was betrothed to a seventh-rank official who raised horses because she fell into the water. The book does not mention how their married life was like.

However, the book focuses on the plot that after the Fan family was exiled, Fan Qianxi was slandered by the Rong family and went to Lingnan alone, but was unfortunately killed by robbers. Since then, the Fan family seems to be shrouded in a curse, and each of them has suffered misfortune.

Therefore, nothing must happen to Fan Qianxi. "So, all of you are just going to watch her get bullied?"

Chu Ci stared at Fan Jingrui with sharp eyes, as if he would cut him into pieces if he dared to say "yes".

"I... am not... me" Fan Jingrui hesitated and opened his mouth several times but didn't know how to explain.

Chu Ci became even more angry when he saw him like this. He then looked at the old woman not far away and saw that her hand was about to poke Fan Qianyan's face. Without saying a word, he quickly ran over.

Before the old woman made her move, she slapped her hard in the face, shocking everyone.

"You...how dare you hit me?" The old woman was even more incredulous. They were just a group of exiles and an abandoned woman, but she was beaten.

Then, she turned her anger towards the Fan family. "The daughter cheated on someone, and the daughter-in-law beat him up without asking why. Is this the family education of the Fan family?"

Unexpectedly, this trick actually worked. Old Madam Fan immediately put on a stern face and said, "Chu Ci, apologize."

Looking at the smug look on the woman's face, Chu Ci raised his hand and slapped her again, "How dare you play tricks on me, huh?"

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. Please be magnanimous and forgive me."

However, the old woman was a person who knew the current situation and immediately apologized to Chu Ci.

Even though the person involved had already apologized, Old Madam Fan still angrily accused: "Chu Ci, you are ruining the reputation of my Fan family! How can we allow you to trample on the reputation of my Fan family like this? If you do this, how can my Fan family survive in this world?"

"If the reputation of the Fan family requires human lives to be preserved, it is better not to do it." Chu Ci's words were firm, and made everyone in the Fan family feel ashamed.

Finally, she simply condoned Chu Ci's actions. Old Madam Fan wanted to speak again, but was held tightly by her youngest son Fan Chongrong.

Seeing this, Chu Ci smiled slightly, turned around and looked at Fan Qianyan, and asked: "You are the person involved. Have you thought about what to do? Should you stay in the Rong family with all your heart, endure humiliation, and even lose your life? Or should you leave those troubles behind and decide your own life in the future."

"I want to go to Yazhou." Seeing that Chu Ci was so courageous that he could not only subdue the old woman but also make his grandmother shut up, Fan Qianyan said without hesitation.

"Then let's go to Yazhou. As for the Rong family? It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge." Chu Ci glanced at the so-called divorce letter. Apart from a lengthy article, there was nothing signed by the middleman or sealed by the government.

As long as the Fan family can make a comeback, this thing is not worth mentioning. By then, hehe, the Rong family will be in trouble. In a moment, Chu Ci had conceived no less than ten tragic endings for the Rong family.

"Okay." At this point, Fan Qianxi's heart finally found its home again.

Chu Ci lived up to expectations, "Then the task of purchasing materials will be handed over to you, big sister. Work hard."

As he spoke, he stuffed a purse containing twenty pearls into Fan Qianxi's hand. Fan Qianxi was shocked, "Sister-in-law——"

"Sister, are you okay?" Chu Ci blinked and pretended nothing had happened.

But my heart was as excited as a wild horse running free from its reins. My elder sister is here, she has help! Hahahaha!

"Of course..." Before Fan Qianxi could even finish the word "OK", the bearded man jumped out and asked in a flattering manner, "Madam, is our deal still valid?"

Wow, in just one night, this attitude has become quite big.

Chu Ci suddenly became interested and asked impatiently, "I received the letter. Is it hard to find the chicken oil yellow? Tell me quickly, is that person trying to get promoted or make money? Or is there any other ulterior motive? Is there a share for you, brother?"

That eager look gave people the illusion that Chu Ci and the bearded man were long-time friends.

You know, usually the bearded guy is the most shameless, but today it is rare to see him speechless.

Several officials not far away were watching the fun, and one of them even said jokingly, "Haha, Brother Hu Zi, you have come to this day too? Your brother-in-law has given you so many gifts, but did he get promoted?"

Even Chu Ci was looking at him with interest. Seeing this, the old woman was secretly delighted and took the opportunity to step back. Seeing that Chu Ci didn't notice her, she was even happier and used her hands and feet to roll and crawl away.

Chu Ci pretended not to see it. Now Brother Hu Zi was the focus of her attention.

"No, I'll tell you. He's just too shameless. He just stays at home all day after he was fired. If he had half the nerve of me, why would he send me gifts? He would have been promoted long ago." Speaking of this, the bearded man looked depressed. "If it weren't for the fact that he's nice to my sister, I wouldn't even bother to help him."

"Hmm? You're so thin-skinned and yet you still know how to give gifts? This sounds a bit wrong." Based on his years of experience watching soap operas in his previous life, Chu Ci felt that there must be something going on here.

So she asked tentatively, "Does your brother-in-law have an unmarried or widowed cousin?"

"Can you tell fortunes?" The bearded man's words confirmed Chu Ci's guess, and also changed the way several officials who were watching the fun looked at Chu Ci.
