After I traveled through the book, I fought back in the Hou Mansion

Chapter 100

After subconsciously hiding herself, she immediately came to her senses and secretly cursed herself for being useless. Hadn't they already decided to have nothing to do with him? With so many people present, there was nothing he could do. What on earth was she hiding from?

Thinking of this, she moved forward again, raised her head and chest, pretended not to see him, and looked at Liu Xiangdong who rushed forward.

Seeing her like this, Ye Yunzhou's eyes grew darker. He clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the waves of emotion welling up in his heart. He secretly reminded himself not to rush forward and ask, but to wait.

On this side, when Lady Jing'an saw her son entering the yard, she was so ignorant of etiquette and scolded him: "What do you want to do?"

When Liu Xiangdong heard the voice, he turned around and saw his mother there. His arrogance subsided a little, and he murmured, "Mother."

Lady Jing'an looked at him and felt extremely disappointed. He had just been talking about how his younger sister had been wronged, but her son didn't even ask about his sister. He just kept speaking up for other women. He was truly her good son!

Liu Xiangdong lowered his head, not daring to look his mother in the eye.

Lady Jing'an felt a chill in her heart as she watched him evade the attack.

She closed her eyes, suppressing the depression that surged in her heart. Then, she turned to Su Yu'an and said, "Miss Su, please tell me what happened in detail."

Su Yu'an was startled by Liu Xiangdong's sudden rush, and only came to his senses when he heard the question from Lady Jing'an.

With so many people in the yard, Liu Erlang would never dare to attack her.

"Ahem." She cleared her throat and nodded to Lady Jing'an. Then her voice became flat, but every word touched Liu Xiangdong's heart.

"This cousin Lu Zhaozhao actually let her maid bribe a ruffian in the market, intending to ruin your sister Liu Yanyan's reputation..." Before he could finish his words, Liu Xiangdong shouted in anger.

He took a few steps forward and asked angrily, "I heard you telling lies when I came in just now. Zhao Zhao is so kind and has no grudges against me. How could she possibly destroy my sister's reputation? And how could she possibly frame that village girl?"

Hearing his words belittling Luo Shuiyao, Ye Yunzhou's face immediately darkened, but he was still not sure whether Luo Shuiyao was the village girl he was talking about, so he endured it.

When he was just on the opposite side, he noticed that a group of people had gathered here, and the noise was very loud, so he thought of coming over to see what was going on. The people who came with him were all brothers of the noble ladies in this courtyard. They all said that they were worried about their sisters. He had no reason to stop them from coming, so he came with them.

He hadn't expected that upon entering the courtyard, he would immediately see the woman he had been dreaming about. Thinking about the place where they had met and the coincidences along the way, he had already formed a vague suspicion.

But he didn't dare to believe what he was guessing in his heart. He just looked at her silently, watching her hide first, and then stand out calmly as if she had figured something out.

Although he really wanted to ask her who she was, the timing was not right. It didn't matter, there was still a long time to come, and it wouldn't be too late to ask after this matter was resolved.

Seeing that Liu Xiangdong's expression had calmed down, he took a step back and stood not far from Luo Shuiyao.

Luo Shuiyao didn't notice his little thoughts at all, and listened to the farce with lowered eyebrows.

In the courtyard, everyone turned their eyes to Luo Shuiyao intentionally or unintentionally when they heard Liu Xiangdong's impolite words. Luo Shuiyao raised her head and adjusted her hair, her expression still very calm. She was just a village girl, and she didn't feel ashamed of it.

Seeing that her expression did not fluctuate at all, everyone couldn't help but feel bored, so they turned their heads and cast their gaze towards Liu Xiangdong, who was at the center of the incident.

Seeing him like this, Su Yu'an sneered a few times and said, "What's the matter? Second Young Master Liu, looking at your attitude, are you interested in this Miss Lu? For the sake of a woman, you even ignore your own sister." Her tone was full of sarcasm.

Su Yu'an and Liu Xiangdong had met several times, and neither of them had a good impression of each other. In Su Yu'an's opinion, the people in the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion were all the same, and none of them were good people.

Seeing her making such unreasonable arguments, Liu Dong took a step forward and wanted to get closer to her, but Ye Yunzhou stopped him with his hand.

When Liu Xiangdong saw that it was Ye Yunzhou, his anger was like a basin of cold water poured over his head. He looked at Ye Yunzhou with some fear, then subconsciously took a step back.

Among the sons of the powerful and influential families in the capital, Ye Yunzhou was undoubtedly a prominent figure. He followed his father into the army as a teenager, cultivating his ruthless tactics. He served in the Hidden Dragon Division, specializing in handling the most challenging cases for the emperor.

Moreover, his methods were so cold and sinister that they could even make a child stop crying. Ordinary noble children like them would naturally be in awe of him when they saw him.

Ye Yunzhou glanced at him coldly, then asked Su Yu'an, "Tell me the details of the situation."

Su Yu'an heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Liu Xiangdong being stopped. She looked up at Ye Yunzhou, who was standing in front of Liu Xiangdong, nodded slightly, and then slowly began to recount everything that had just happened.

After listening to Su Yu'an's story, Ye Yunzhou slowly glanced at Luo Shuiyao.

When Luo Shuiyao met his gaze, she pursed her lips and smiled, her smile still there, without a trace of guilt.

Ye Yunzhou's breathing stagnated, and he turned his gaze to Liu Yanyan. Liu Yanyan was full of grievances at this time. She looked at him and wanted to say something, but was held back by her mother and could not speak.

Afterwards, Ye Yunzhou turned his gaze to Lu Zhaozhao, the instigator of this incident. He frowned slightly, feeling that this woman really loved to stir up trouble.

Lu Zhaozhao tensed up when his gaze swept over her. Only when Ye Yunzhou withdrew his gaze did she breathe a sigh of relief, secretly feeling relieved. Fortunately, as soon as she saw Ye Yunzhou come in, she had put away the kingfisher hairpin on her head and hidden it in her sleeve. Otherwise, if he had discovered it, she would have been humiliated today.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Luo Shuiyao and Liu Yanyan almost imperceptibly, her heart filled with annoyance and she was at a loss as to what to do.

At this moment, the only way to break the deadlock seemed to be to rely on the Marquis' wife. She lowered her head and moved closer to the Marquis' wife, eager to seek her protection.

Seeing her like this, the Marquis's wife had a complicated look in her eyes and sighed slightly. This was the only daughter left to her by her best friend, who had repeatedly urged her to treat this daughter well before he died.

If she was punished severely, she would not be able to bear it, and she would not be able to face her best friend even after a hundred years. However, when she thought about how she had attacked Yaoyao again and again, she could not help but feel a little resentful towards her.
