Being favored by the paranoid master, the whole imperial capital kneels down

"Sister Chu Zheng."

Chu Xinli smiled at Nan Chuzheng.

That smile carried a hint of disdain from a superior looking at an inferior.

It was just because Chu Xinli was usually careless, so he hid this contemptuous feeling very well.

Nan Chuzheng in her previous life really couldn’t tell the difference.

She always thought that the entire Chu family was on guard against her and that she needed to use her sincerity to win the Chu family's sincerity.

Only Chu Xinli would smile every time he saw her and affectionately call her "Sister Chuzheng".

He is also the friendliest person towards Nan Chuzheng in the entire Chu family.

If Chu Xinli had not taken Nan Chuzheng's sword and crazily slaughtered the Nan family.

Nan Chuzheng might be deceived by Chu Xinli's appearance as a bohemian and romantic young man for the rest of her life.

Nan Chuzheng took two steps back and looked at Chu Xinli with a scrutinizing gaze.

She didn't even say hello to Chu Xinli.

Just standing in the sunlight, feeling cold all over.

In fact, this second brother has never looked down on Nan Chuzheng from the bottom of his heart.

He had never considered Nan Chuzheng as a member of the Chu family.

Of course, he is a deep-minded person and may not take Chu Shiqing seriously.

Because of Nan Chuzheng's unusual coldness, Chu Xinli was stunned for a moment, then smiled even more nonchalantly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at how long it's been since Second Brother last saw you, how come you got into such a fight with them?"

"Alright, alright, you should be more open-minded. After all, Jingyue is the treasure of our whole family. If you get angry with Jingyue, no one in the family will help you."

"Go back and take Big Brother's hand, kowtow to Jingyue and apologize, and this matter will be over."

He reached out to hold Nan Chuzheng's hand, wanting to take her back to the Chu family.

Nan Chuzheng turned her body to the side and avoided Chu Xinli's hand.

"What's going on? You don't even give Second Brother face?"

Chu Xinli's voice faded, and impatience towards Nan Chuzheng rose in his eyes.

"Chu Zheng, you know you just returned to the Chu family. Our family is a marquisate, unlike those small families."

"You treat Big Brother like this, so they don't bother with you. Otherwise, they might beat you to death."

Nan Chuzheng snorted, "Beat me to death? You don't have the ability to do that."

It’s not like she doesn’t know the Chu family.

If the Chu family had not asked anything of her, she would have been beaten to death by the Chu family for the "crime" of hurting Chu Shiqing.

It was because the Chu family saw the value of Nan Chuzheng and knew that Nan Chuzheng could command the Yama Sizhong.

That's why the Chu family can be so tolerant towards Nan Chuzheng.

Chu Xinli frowned.

"Nan Chuzheng, why do you talk like that?"

The real Chu Xinli, the devil hidden beneath his appearance, has always been impatient with Nan Chuzheng.

He can handle people's hearts very well. Compared with the good-looking Chu Shiqing, Chu Xinli is more popular in the Marquis Zhaoyong's mansion.

It is precisely because of this talent that he can get along with everyone. Even though he cannot read or write, he can still make a lot of connections by relying on his looks.

Nan Chuzheng closed her eyes, then opened them again and smiled.

"Why is the Second Young Master so anxious to run around for them?"

"You are just a bastard of the Zhaoyong Marquis's mansion. Even if you do well and win the favor of Lord Chu and the old lady, what does it matter?"

"That mansion will still not be yours in the future."

Following Nan Chuzheng's words, Chu Xinli's face instantly turned ashen.

He gritted his teeth and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't understand a word you say."

Nan Chuzheng tilted her head, her smile growing brighter.

"Nonsense or not, Second Young Master, please don't hide it from me. Chu Shiqing's hand was cut off. In fact, this is a good opportunity for you, Second Young Master."

"What does he have? He's just a few more books better than the Second Young Master. Look at the Zhaoyong Marquis's mansion. Is there anyone who has a wider circle of friends than the Second Young Master?"

"If the Second Young Master hadn't been so well-connected over the years and helped Zhaoyong Marquis's Mansion build some good connections, Chu Shiqing might not have been able to hold on to this position."

Nan Chuzheng said this while looking at Chu Xinli's face with an expression that kept changing.

There was both anger at having one's secrets revealed.

There is also the panic after the deepest desires buried in the heart are exposed.

Nan Chuzheng couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

Look, it was such a low-level person who not only deceived her in her previous life.

He stole her sword from her hand, and also stole a lot of good things from her.

In her previous life, Nan Chuzheng couldn’t see clearly.

Looking back on this life, Chu Xinli plays with people's hearts, but his intentions are also obvious.

Nan Chuzheng can easily play with Chu Xinli's heart with just a few words.

"That's enough, don't say any more."

Chu Xinli interrupted Nan Chuzheng with a stern face and reached out to strangle Nan Chuzheng's neck.

It is not a good thing to have your thoughts pried into by others.

"Want to kill someone to silence him?"

Nan Chuzheng took two steps back with a smile on her face.

"That depends on whether the Second Young Master has the ability."

"I believe that the Second Young Master has also understood why the Chu family tolerated me to this extent during this period of time, right?"

"If the Second Young Master wants to compete for the position of the Crown Prince of Zhaoyong Marquis's Mansion, perhaps I can lend a helping hand."

Behind Nan Chuzheng is Yama Luosi.

Although no one can figure out, what is the relationship between Nan Chuzheng and Yan Luosi?

But Yan Luosi was clearly standing beside Nan Chuzheng, waiting for her orders.

Chu Shiqing's hand has been broken, and twelve hours have passed since yesterday.

If Nan Chuzheng insisted on not letting Chu Shiqing take over, Chu Shiqing would never be able to take his hand back.

It is impossible for the Zhaoyong Marquis Mansion to allow a person with a physical disability to be the crown prince.

For a moment, Chu Xinli stood still.

He was measuring Nan Chuzheng's value.

Nan Chuzheng was not in a hurry. She stood there, straightening her clothes and waiting for Chu Xinli's answer.

It seemed like a long time had passed before Chu Xinli narrowed his eyes and looked at Nan Chuzheng with a shrewd and calculating look, like a businessman.

"You help me? What's in it for you?"

He did not forget that Nan Chuzheng was Zhou's daughter.

If you really think about it, Chu Shiqing and Nan Chuzheng are siblings from the same mother.

Nan Chuzheng wrapped a strand of hair on her shoulder around her scallion-like fingers.

"Of course it's because in the two years since I returned to the Chu family, Zhou and Chu Shiqing have been far less kind to me than they were to Chu Jingyue."

"I was not convinced and wanted to take revenge on them."

Nan Chuzheng repeated the words in her mind.

These are the words that the people around her have repeatedly reminded her of during her years in the Chu family.

In fact, in her previous life, Nan Chuzheng never had the idea of competing with Chu Jingyue.

But the Chu family couldn't stop them from speculating about Nan Chuzheng in this way.

Everyone felt that Chu Jingyue had no blood relationship with the Chu family, but she was loved by all the Chu family members.

Nan Chuzheng, the daughter of a marquis who should have grown up in luxury, ended up growing up in the countryside and suffered a lot.

Therefore, after Nan Chuzheng returned to the Chu family, she should, inevitably, and would definitely feel dissatisfied with Chu Jingyue, become psychologically distorted, and want to take revenge on Chu Jingyue.

Since the Chu family thought so, Nan Chuzheng said so.

This is more in line with the Chu family's logic.

Chu Xinli nodded and no longer doubted Nan Chuzheng.

"So what do you want me to do for you?"

"Except for not harming Jingyue, I can promise you anything."
