Nian Susu didn't expect that he was still worried about her at this time. "I'm fine. Young Master's condition has recurred. You should pay more attention to rest."

Cui Yuqing thanked her for her kind reminder and invited her to the teahouse for tea, but she refused.

Cui Yuqing did not force her. He said goodbye to her and left. After walking about ten steps away, he bumped into someone. Due to his weak body, he took a few steps back and almost fell.

The man looked ferocious and pointed at Cui Yuqing and cursed: "Are you blind?! Can't you see such a big person walking in front of you?"

He looked Cui Yuqing up and down, not disguising the disgust in his eyes, "You look like you're dying, you didn't bump into me on purpose to blackmail me! In broad daylight, in the open air, dressed like a decent person, you actually did this kind of thing!"

Cui Yuqing tried to open his eyes wide to see the person in front of him clearly, bowed to him with a guilty look and apologized: "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't see clearly for a moment and accidentally bumped into you. Please don't be angry, why don't I buy you some tea to make amends, cough cough cough..."

The man quickly stepped back, his face full of anger. "Look! You said you didn't want to blackmail me! You're acting like this after just a few words. Who are you showing off to?"

He raised his voice and shouted, "Everyone, come and see, there's a shameless pretty boy trying to extort money from people on the street! He was the one who hit me first, but he wants me to pay him money!"

Everyone quickly gathered around and surrounded the two of them.

Cui Yuqing was angry and anxious, "You! How can you confuse right and wrong? When did I ever say that I wanted you to pay compensation..."

Everyone was talking at once, and his rebuttal was like a stone thrown into the sea, causing only a few ripples before dying down.

The accusations became louder and louder, and Cui Yuqing felt dizzy and the things in front of him became more and more blurry, and even one person turned into several layers of shadows.

He fell backwards, and his back leaned against someone. The person seemed to have an unstable center of gravity, or could not support his weight, and swayed twice, and barely managed to hold him up.

"Mr. Cui." Nian Susu held his shoulders with both hands, looking panicked.

"Thank...thank you very much, Miss Nian." Cui Yuqing gritted his teeth and stood firm.

Nian Susu glared at the man, his anger growing evident.

Although it was Cui Yuqing's fault, he continued to pester him even after he apologized, and even slandered him for extorting money. This was wrong on his part. It was obvious that he saw Cui Yuqing as easy to bully, so he picked him to bully.

Nian Susu put his hands on his hips and scolded the man fiercely.

This kind of person bullies the weak and fears the strong. Once he sees someone who is more arrogant and domineering than him, he will lose his momentum.

"I think you want to extort money!" Nian Susu's summary was to the point.

The man felt guilty and had a strange look on his face. His eyes rolled around as he looked at everyone. When no one was paying attention, he scurried out of the crowd like a monkey.

Everyone sighed, and now it was clear who was right and who was wrong.

After the excitement faded, the crowd dispersed, and Nian Susu hurriedly turned around to help Cui Yuqing.

Cui Yuqing's face was as pale as paper, and she looked so weak that she could be blown away by the wind at any time.

Nian Susu was in a heavy mood.

One of the symptoms of late-stage type 1 diabetes is decreased vision, which eventually leads to complete loss of vision. No one knew how long he had had this symptom, and he had hidden it so well that even he himself did not notice it and thought he was a special case.

Cui Yuqing thanked him calmly. Nian Susu offered to take him back to the teahouse, and he did not refuse.

He didn't want to show his ugly side to others. He didn't say a word on the way and didn't look at her. He seemed too tired to speak, but in fact, she could feel that he was deliberately avoiding her gaze.

Nian Susu didn't ask anything and said goodbye to him in front of Taihe Teahouse.

Cui Yuqing is a decent man. He doesn't want others to know about his shameful deeds. He even hid it from Xiao Yunzheng, let alone her.

But we cannot rule out the possibility that he deliberately concealed it because he did not want to make Xiao Yunzheng worry.

……

West Wing.

Nian Qiaoyue had just turned off the lights and lay down when she heard a noise outside, like the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, followed by hurried footsteps in the corridor.

She was so scared that she sat up and shrank to the corner of the bed, clutching the quilt tightly for a sense of security. In the darkness, she subconsciously looked towards the lighted window, and saw a tall black shadow passing by the window and heading towards her door.

Nian Qiaoyue didn't dare to breathe, her mind went blank and she didn't know how to react.

Who is that person?

Thief?

Killer?

What is the purpose of breaking into the West Wing?

Is her life in danger?

A few thoughts flashed through her mind, and before she could come to a conclusion, the door was kicked open with a sound of breaking wood. The person was so arrogant that he forced his way in openly. Unfortunately, there were no guards guarding the west wing. The person must have taken advantage of this to dare to do so.

If it were in the East Wing, all the guards in the Prime Minister's Mansion would rush over at the slightest disturbance, for fear that Nian Su Su would get hurt. But if it were in the West Wing, even if someone demolished her yard, it would not cause any waves.

I remember that last time Nian Susu was kidnapped by the murderous devil Lian Zhuo, Yang Yuerong replaced all the guards in the prime minister's mansion, and each of the maids and old women serving in the east wing was beaten with twenty boards and had one month's salary deducted.

After this experience, everyone in the mansion paid special attention to the East Wing. In their eyes and hearts, there was only the eldest daughter, and the so-called second daughter became a completely marginalized figure.

A feeling of sadness surged in her heart, and Nian Qiaoyue sniffed, as if she wanted to throw in the towel. Things had come to this point, the worst that could happen was death.

She hugged her knees, waiting for death to come.

The room was dim. Her bed was facing the window. There was a patch of moonlight in front of the bed. A long slanted shadow suddenly appeared, getting longer and longer, and getting closer and closer.

Until a tall man stood in front of her bed, with his back to the moonlight, his whole body wrapped in a mysterious aura.

Nian Qiaoyue couldn't help but get scared. She asked tremblingly, "Who... who are you? What do you want to do? I... I am just an unloved concubine. You want gold, silver, jewelry, power and status, but I can't give them to you."

It was rare for her to admit her status as a concubine's daughter. For the first time, she faced the fact that she was not favored and said it out loud. All of this was out of instinctive self-protection.

In desperation, she thought of Nian Susu.

Nian Qiaoyue pointed to the east and said confidently: "The most favored one in our mansion is the eldest daughter who lives in the East Wing. Go find her! Help her, and no matter what you want, Prime Minister Nian and Madam Nian can satisfy you."

In order to prove that she was not favored, she didn't even call him "Dad", but directly changed his name to "Prime Minister Nian", hoping that the person in front of her would believe her.

Hearing this, the man laughed several times.

Nian Qiaoyue was confused. What did this mean?

And this voice is very familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it.

The man took two steps forward, and Nian Qiaoyue shrank back. There was a wall behind her, and she could not escape at all.

He crouched down slowly, the shadows parted, and his face was revealed in the moonlight.

Nian Qiaoyue was so shocked that her eyes widened and her mouth opened.
