Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

Qiuyue looked down at Zhang Daoqin, who was standing in front of her and sobbing from time to time. Suddenly, she remembered that the voice that screamed for Zhang Daoqing to die was not the one that Zhang Daoqin shouted out. She could tell it was his voice!

"You...what happened to you just now?"

Qiuyue's voice trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at them with eyes full of sadness and confusion, which made the children's faces even paler.

They would rather Qiuyue scolded and beat them than see her like this, because it meant that she was really sad and disappointed.

"Sister, I, we don't know why this happened. We, we suddenly couldn't control our anger. We clearly didn't want to fight..."

Zhang Zhenyi, who was always calm and composed in times of crisis, felt that his words were particularly pale at this moment. He looked at Qiuyue, whose eyes were red and full of sadness, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably. He wanted to explain something but didn't know how to say it, because before they lost control and started fighting, they were indeed arguing, and they were still very sober at that time.

"elder sister……"

"Sister, we don't want this..."

"Sister, we suddenly lost control of our anger. Everything was fine before, really, sister..."

As soon as Zhang Zhenyi finished speaking, the other children also wanted to explain one after another. Qiuyue really wanted to believe what they said, but the harsh swear words were really unforgettable. Just the two words mentioned in the words made it difficult for her to believe that they suddenly lost control.

Main family, outer family.

Knowing the situation of the modern Zhang family, doesn't she understand what the conflict between them is?

She didn't believe that the fight broke out suddenly for no reason!

"you……"

Qiuyue had a lot of questions and things she wanted to say, but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly didn't know what to say.

She suddenly became timid.

She foolishly hoped that the children in front of her would still be as well-behaved and obedient as before, as if they would return to normal as long as she didn't ask. However, she knew in her heart that this was impossible.

Having seen the hideous faces of the beasts, no matter how innocent and pitiful they pretended to be, she could not forget their ferocious expressions that showed they wanted to kill each other.

Qiuyue lowered her eyes and looked at the blood that had been dripped onto the ground by someone unknown, and she felt a chill all over her body.

No, this can't be done. She can't pretend nothing happened. They are still young and can still make things right. She must set them right!

"You two have always been at odds, haven't you?"

With just a few words, everyone's heart, including Zhang Daoqin's, skipped a beat.

"Master family, outside family, you have always been at odds with each other..."

Qiuyue slowly raised her eyes, and the tears in her eyes almost condensed into beads.

"You have always pretended to be harmonious in front of me."

"No, sister, we are not..."

Zhang Daoqin's voice was trembling. He raised his hand weakly and grabbed Qiuyue's sleeve and pulled it, trying to make her turn back into the gentle and caring sister she was just now, instead of the way she was now.

Qiuyue felt the pulling force on her sleeve, and when she heard the pale words he said, her heart suddenly became even sadder.

"Do you still want to lie to your sister?"

Qiuyue lowered her eyes and looked at Zhang Daoqin. The tears in her eyes finally rolled down. The falling of the crystal tears made everyone's mind go blank for a moment, and then an extremely suffocating sense of panic filled their hearts. They looked at the tear on Qiuyue's face with constricted pupils, and they felt so heartbroken that their souls were trembling.

"No, no, I won't lie to you, sister, don't cry, don't cry, I won't lie to you, really, I won't lie to you!"

Zhang Daoqin dropped the paper ball he had been holding in his hand and raised his hands to hug Qiuyue, but Qiuyue took a step back and avoided his hands. For a moment, Zhang Daoqin was almost in despair.

"Sister, don't cry, we will tell you everything, don't cry, sister, don't cry!"

"Don't cry, sister, it's our fault. We shouldn't be like this. Sister, don't cry."

Not only Zhang Daoqin, but all the other children were terrified. They felt as if their souls had fallen into an ice cave and were cold all over. The tear that Qiuyue shed almost made their hearts die.

This is their extremely gentle sister. How could they make her so sad?

"A Ling!"

Zhang Shouxu noticed something was wrong as soon as he arrived outside the hall, because usually Qiuyue would hold Cotton Pudding in her arms when she came, but today Cotton Pudding was lying on the ground outside the hall, while Qiuyue walked to the door of the hall and looked inside. The children who usually surrounded her were not with her. He knew something was wrong at a glance. Sure enough, when he arrived at the door and saw the mess on the ground, he immediately understood what had happened.

"Ah Ling, it's okay."

Zhang Shouxu's heart ached when he saw the tears on Qiuyue's face. He reached out and gently embraced her, coaxing her, "Don't cry, I'm here."

When the children saw Zhang Shouxu hugging Qiuyue, their breath stopped and disgust appeared in their eyes.

He really has feelings for his sister!

Qiuyue, however, could no longer suppress her emotions when Zhang Shouxu arrived. She turned to look at him and said sadly, "Shouxu, the kids just wanted to beat each other to death. They've always been at odds, but they just pretended to be harmonious in front of me. I've already told them, but they still want to lie to me..."

Qiuyue became increasingly sad as she spoke, tears finally beginning to roll down her cheeks. Zhang Shouxu quickly raised his hand to wipe her tears away, coaxing her softly, "Don't cry, don't cry. It's not worth crying. They lied to you because they were naughty. Ah Ling, don't cry for them. Let's go! I brought you your favorite Jutengnu and Jinlingzhi. Cotton Pudding is hungry too."

"elder sister……"

Zhang Daoqin, who was standing next to her, reached out to grab Qiuyue's sleeve again, but this time he retreated halfway because he was afraid that Qiuyue would dislike him even more.

The other children were also frozen. They wanted to get closer to her as usual, but their feet seemed to be stuck to the ground as if they were covered in glue and they couldn't lift them up at all. They were so cold and weak that they couldn't muster any strength. They could only stand there blankly and watch her crying sadly.

This is Lord Linzu, who loves them the most, but he was hurt by them and shed tears. They... really deserve to die...

Qiuyue choked up a few times and then tried hard to suppress the sadness in her heart. She turned to look at them with tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "You...you should think about it carefully. Do you want to continue to deceive me, or tell me the truth..."

When Qiuyue mentioned the three words "deceive me", she almost couldn't control herself. She really liked these children, but when she knew that all of them were pretending to be well-behaved and obedient to deceive her, she was really sad.

"Sister, we won't lie to you anymore. We really won't lie to you anymore. We will tell you the truth. We will tell you the truth!"

Zhang Zhenyi finally lifted his feet and staggered towards Qiuyue. The others also lifted their heavy feet one after another and tried to walk towards her, but Qiuyue shook her head, sobbed for a while, and then said in a hoarse voice, "No, I don't want to hear it now. Go eat, and then tell me what's going on tonight."

After saying that, Qiuyue stopped looking at the group of children who made her sad and turned to walk out. Zhang Shouxu quickly reached out to help her walk. At the same time, he looked back at the group of children whose eyes were full of loss and despair and said something silently.

"Tell me the truth tonight, and don't try to exaggerate, or you'll all be kicked out tomorrow."

The children's faces were all a little dull. They looked at Qiuyue's back in pain and felt the taste of blood in their throats again.

Their best sister...

Qiuyue couldn't hold back her tears anymore when she returned to her palace. She couldn't stop her tears and cried sadly, "Shouxu, how could they lie to me? Why aren't they good children? Can't the main family and the foreign family live in peace? We are obviously one family!"

Zhang Shouxu reached out and held her in his arms, stroking her soft long hair in silence. He had no way of answering this question. The main family and the outside family could coexist peacefully, but it was impossible for them to live together as equals.

The main family and the outsiders are destined to be two different levels and cannot be equal. Even in the main family's land, all the chores are done by the outsiders. The main family will never do these things. The difference is very obvious.

Qiuyue buried herself in Zhang Shouxu's arms and cried uncontrollably. Her sadness at this moment was no less than Zhang Daoqin's grievance just now. If she hadn't been trying hard to make them straighten out, she would have burst into tears in front of them.

Her brothers are so well behaved, why are they all fake?!

The cotton puddings have been silent since they came back. They squatted obediently at Qiuyue's feet and stuck close to her, trying to comfort her with their small bodies, while looking at each other and having a silent conversation.

Cotton: My sister cried so sadly.

Pudding: Because my sister really liked that group of people, she was very sad when she found out that they were deceiving her.

Cotton: Fortunately, I won’t lie to my sister.

Pudding: Me too. I don’t want to make my sister cry!

Cotton: Oh, it would be great if I could turn back into a human. I would be my sister’s good brother and would definitely be more obedient than those guys and wouldn’t fight.

Pudding: Me too, me too. I will never let my sister be sad.
