This time, Liu Yiping swore the oath very quickly, as if he was afraid that others could not hear him, so he spoke very loudly.

Before, with so many people urging him to swear, Liu Yiping stuttered and couldn't speak. Now he spoke fluently, but all these words were meant to kill Shen Qingyu.

This caused what was originally a foregone conclusion to once again cause an uproar.

Shen Qingyu lowered her eyes. "Well done, Liu Yiping. Do you like scolding her?" I just hope you won't just do it for the sake of a momentary verbal pleasure today. You can always speak so confidently like you do now.

Shen Chuanhe couldn't help but murmur a little, feeling irritated in his heart. How come the matter that had been suppressed originally became a commotion again? What Liu Yiping said didn't seem to be false, but Qingyu was a child who seldom interacted with others, so why did he frame him in this matter? What was going on?

"Third brother, I have seen it today. The things in your house are even more complicated and confusing than the case in the court. I shouldn't have interrupted, but this is related to the reputation of the Shen family, and I am also a child of the Shen family. If I handle it improperly, I am afraid that I will cause criticism."

Shen Ruyan had not said much, but her confusing words suppressed Shen Qingyu. It was clear at first that Liu Yiping had evil intentions and raped the maid in order to accuse Shen Qingyu. When it came to Shen Ruyan, she deliberately blurred the matter and secretly helped Aunt Liu.

Basically, it is telling Shen Chuanhe not to believe what these two people say, because your daughter may not be telling the truth.

Aunt Liu seemed to have found a backer, and she spoke with more confidence, "The Second Miss rarely leaves her courtyard or walks around the mansion. If it weren't for today's incident, I'm afraid the two of them have never spoken to each other, and haven't even met each other. But why did Yi Ping insist that he met the Second Miss, and why did he appear near the Second Miss's courtyard? Master and Madam, Aunt, I dare not plead for my nephew, but today's incident is full of doubts. If this matter is not clear, I'm afraid Yi Ping will be upset!"

That's what happened. There are so many women in the Shen family, so it makes no sense for Liu Yiping to only pester Shen Qingyu and accuse her of framing him.

Bai Ying's heart was filled with ups and downs. She had just been defending Shen Qingyu, but now, like everyone else present, she looked at Shen Qingyu with inquiring eyes.

More than a dozen gazes were all on her, some were probing, some were mocking, some were waiting for her to make a fool of herself, all kinds of gazes were there, but Shen Qingyu's face remained calm, without any panic at all.

For a moment, Shen Qingyu suddenly felt aggrieved. Why was there never anyone in this world willing to stand by her side? No matter what situation she was in, she had always been alone.

The moment Shen Qingyu raised her head, her eyes were dim. Everyone was watching her every move. Once she couldn't hold on any longer, Aunt Liu would have the leverage over her. For the sake of the Shen family's reputation, Shen Chuanhe and Bai Ying would not care about her life or death.

Although today's matter was done in a hurry and led to the current situation under the push of various forces, Shen Qingyu knew in her heart that she could not lose and could not afford to lose.

She is not Shen Xitong. She does not have a beautiful face and her plain appearance does not catch Shen Chuanhe's eyes at all.

If she behaves herself, she will still be the second lady of the Shen family. If she destroys the reputation of the Shen family and brings no benefit to the Shen family, Shen Chuanhe will not keep her in the Shen family, and she may even lose her life.

After coming to this world and experiencing all this, Shen Qingyu still felt a chill down her spine when she tried to guess people's hearts, because human hearts are dark and unspeakable.

The curve of her lips drew a very faint smile that could not be hidden at all. That smile was so faint that it made Shen Qingyu's ordinary face look even more lonely.

The autumn wind blew, and her skirt fluttered slightly. Her moon-white robe actually brought out her pretty look. The tasseled sachet under the brocade belt exuded the fragrance of osmanthus.

The rouge-dyed cherry lips concealed Shen Qingyu's pale and dry lips. She tilted her head slightly, her black hair falling down a little, covering her eyes and also hiding the strong sarcasm in her eyes.

"Mr. Liu, when have I ever seen you before?!"

What can these people do if she doesn't admit it?

Shen Chuanhe would never joke about the Shen family's reputation. Even if Aunt Liu wanted to put the blame on her, she had to see whether Shen Chuanhe agreed.

After all, Shen Ruyan was watching next to them today.

The crisp voice was resounding and the tone was resolute. At this moment, the pride hidden under the mediocre appearance gradually emerged with Shen Qingyu's sneer. There was an indescribable noble air that made people dare not look directly at her.

Liu Yiping was frightened, and the hand that was pointing at Shen Qingyu began to tremble, "Just...just now..."

Everyone present was shocked. This stern question was decisive and domineering.

It was really unexpected that the Second Miss, who was plain-looking and inconspicuous in daily life, displayed such grace and elegance at this moment, which far exceeded the Second Miss's stunning appearance.

Perhaps this is the demeanor of a true daughter of an aristocratic family, neither humble nor overbearing, and knowing when to advance and retreat.

Shen Chuanhe was even more shocked. Was he just in a trance or had he been wrong about Shen Qingyu for so many years? He had never taken Shen Qingyu seriously since she was a child. She was simply an abandoned child. Otherwise, he would not have tolerated Bai Ying throwing her in the corner of the Shen family for so many years and ignoring her.

Her ordinary face was not even as pretty as one of the slightly pretty maids in the mansion. Her personality was even more ordinary. She was not like Tong'er, who had hired a teacher and a nanny to teach her manners and how to read and write at an early age.

Such a woman, who has no opinion of her own and no talent, cannot enter the door of a noble family at all, and can only marry into an ordinary family in the future.

But now the Shen family is focusing on upward development. Shen Qingyu has the title of a legitimate daughter, but she cannot marry a man from an aristocratic family. That would be a real loss of face.

But now, Shen Chuanhe feels that Shen Qingyu is not completely useless.

Shen Ruyan was secretly shocked, after all, she never expected that the most secretive person in the Shen family was Shen Qingyu, a 14-year-old girl. She looked inconspicuous on weekdays, but she actually possessed so many abilities and talents, which was truly surprising.

Compared to the shock of others, Bai Ying's face was naturally full of pride. The daughter she gave birth to after nearly dying in childbirth could naturally bring her honor.
