But Ziran asked delicately, "Aye, this is the white jade osmanthus cake Xue'er made herself. Are you going out?"

As she spoke, she took the food box from the maid Xiao Tao beside her and looked at Chu Junye expectantly with a smile on her face.

"Xue'er, I'm going to the Regent's Palace to pick up Duo'er. Duo'er was poisoned some time ago and has been receiving treatment at the Regent's Palace. I won't tell you now! Why don't you go back first? I'll come to the Zhu Mansion to see you after I pick up Duo'er!"

After Chu Junye finished speaking, he left her anxiously. Zhu Qingxue couldn't believe her ears and stood there for a moment.

"What? He actually left me aside to go see Yi Duo'er?"

At this moment, Zhu Qingxue, watching Chu Junye's gradually disappearing back, felt a wave of heartache sweeping through her body. She felt a tightness in her chest, unable to breathe in or out. Her delicate cheeks began to turn sad.

Then she raised her eyes slightly, and within those eyes, which were originally as shimmering as autumn water, a hint of ruthlessness quietly flashed. That ruthlessness was like a sharp blade beneath a delicate flower, instantly becoming incomparably sharp.

He said viciously: “Yi Duoer, why is your life so miserable?”

She was now like a devil from hell, hating Yi Duo'er. The maid Xiao Tao beside her hurriedly comforted her: "Miss, the maid next to Yi Duo'er has not been exposed yet. Once the storm is over, we can find a way to deal with her. Now, you still have to win the heart of Prince Lao first."

Xiao Tao's words gradually made her regain some of her sanity, "You're right, let's go to the Regent too!"

Prince Regent's Palace,

Because Yi Duoer is here, Chu Junheng and the Ninth Princess often come here to eat and drink for free. Li Yue is afraid that if they stay together for too long, it will be more difficult for Chu Jingchen to fall in love with her, so she often disturbs them!

This made the place very lively, but this made Chu Jingchen feel very distressed. He wanted to spend time alone with Yi Duoer and spend more time with her, but now it was a luxury.

However, even though I was troubled, I was relieved to see that Yi Duoer enjoyed the fun and that the poison in her body had been cured!

They were on the lakeside, playing Landlord around the fire, and the fight was in full swing.

The Ninth Princess suddenly burst into laughter, "I'm so excited! Hahahaha... give me the money!"

At this time, long notes were stuck on everyone's faces. Li Yue and Chu Junheng had the most on their faces, and Yi Duoer also had quite a few on her face. However, compared to the Ninth Princess, there were only two long notes on her face!

"Chu Roujia, you're not hiding your cards, are you? How can you win with all your cards?"

Yi Duoer looked at her with an unwilling and puzzled look, and the other two followed Yi Duoer's words and stared at the Ninth Princess.

"Yes, Ninth Princess, your cards are really good, aren't they?"

When the Ninth Princess heard that they were actually doubting her, a fierce expression immediately appeared on her pretty face. "What are you talking about? Yi Duo'er, there are only four of us, and we only have so few cards. Where can I hide them? Haha... And you're still bragging about how you dominated everyone in the casino back then! I think you're just bragging!"

The Ninth Princess couldn't help but express her doubts about Yi Duoer's words, and Chu Junheng also stared at Yi Duoer in confusion.

"Don't doubt me, everything I said is true. I really won a lot of money!"

Li Yue scoffed at her words and asked, "Since you won so much silver, where is the money you won? Take it out and show it to us, then I will believe you!"

Yi Duoer was speechless on the spot, recalling how she was chased and beaten by them and was in such a miserable state. She couldn't tell them this, otherwise, her unparalleled reputation would be ruined!

So they started to talk about other things, hoping to get away with it, but the two princesses didn't buy it at all, and just like that, the three women started arguing. Chu Junheng was caught in the middle and didn't know what to do!

Chu Jingchen also came behind them and smiled knowingly with indulgence. His Duo'er was always so shocking. Even if they were unreasonable, she could make them feel wrong with her eloquent mouth!

"I will pay for Duo'er's gambling debt!"

Yi Duoer turned around and looked at him for a few seconds. They both smiled sweetly. Li Yue saw Chu Jingchen supporting Yi Duoer and said unhappily:

"No, Brother Chen, you're an outsider and can't pay for Yi Duo'er's gambling debt! Then you'll always side with her, which is unfair to us, right? Don't you agree?"

The Ninth Princess also felt that Li Yue was right, so she agreed. However, Chu Junheng did not say that. Instead, he looked at Chu Jingchen with a flattering smile.

"Uncle, please help Duo'er pay, and pay my nephew's as well! I've lost all the banknotes I had on me!"

Who knew that just as Chu Junheng finished speaking, Chu Junye and Zhu Qingxue came over here. Yi Duoer was in a good mood, but since seeing these two, one is a green tea bitch, and the other is a cold black charcoal. A trace of disgust flashed in her eyes! The Ninth Princess spoke first, "Third brother, Sister Xueer, why are you here?"

Zhu Qingxue revealed a gentle smile and said to Yi Duoer, "Sister, I have been very worried since I heard that you were poisoned. Now that I see that you are safe and sound, I am relieved!"

Yi Duoer glanced at her, feeling both disgusted and amused by her pretense. She'd warned her before not to act so pretentiously in front of her, but it seemed she was being a bitch instead of a noble lady! She shouldn't blame him for being rude.

"Xiao San'er, why are you everywhere? Are you disappointed to see that I'm fine?"

She showed no mercy at all. Everyone looked at each other, and Zhu Qingxue looked at Chu Junye with grievance. Li Yue couldn't stand Yi Duoer's domineering look. So she stood up for Zhu Qingxue.

"This beautiful woman was so kind and concerned about you, how could you humiliate her like this? You are so domineering!"

Zhu Qingxue did not wait for Chu Junye's protection, but instead waited for Princess Yingjue to stand up for her. She subconsciously showed her a look of gratitude.

Seeing that the two of them were acting in the same direction, Chu Jingchen was afraid that Yi Duoer would suffer, so he arrogantly protected her by his side. He said in a dignified manner, "Duoer has the capital to do this. So? Who dares to object?"

At this moment, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chu Jingchen treated her differently from others. Although Yi Duoer could handle this little thing by herself, his protection still made her feel warm!

Chu Junye frowned slightly. He couldn't get angry at Yi Duoer for Xueer at this moment. He realized that every time he had a conflict with Yi Duoer, it was all because of Xueer!

His relationship with Yi Duoer is very delicate now. He wants to repair the relationship with Yi Duoer. Now with Chu Jingchen, he must not get angry with her.
