Inside Yan Wanwan's house, Wang Yuhua had just sorted out all the betrothal gifts and put them into storage. She looked out the window coldly and called out softly to the air, "Go and find out everything that happened after Wanwan left. I want to know before sunset."

A disembodied echo echoed through the air, "Yes."

On the other side, Chen Mei'e just returned to the Shangshu Mansion and became furious with the housekeeper.

"Who are you looking for? They don't even have the strength to fight back when they encounter someone. They are knocked to the ground and are useless. And they still want to protect me? Pah! Today, I have lost face because of them."

The housekeeper apologized repeatedly in silence, but still couldn't help but stand up for them.

"Madam, these three are already the most powerful martial artists in the mansion. Martial Master Liao and the Second Young Master's martial arts mentor are both powerful. No matter what, they can't be beaten to a pulp with just one move."

So, shouldn't we suspect that the other party's martial arts skills are too high?

But most wives of officials would not look for problems within themselves, such as Chen Mei'e.

She immediately roared in anger, "No wonder the Second Young Master's Kung Fu is declining day by day. It's because he has such a good-for-nothing master. Now, kick them out of the house immediately. I don't want to see them again."

The housekeeper had no choice but to obey orders and had the three people still lying on stretchers carried out.

They also kept begging Chen Mei'e for mercy, but what could this change?

They are just dogs of the Shangshu Mansion, and can be discarded at will when they are no longer needed.

Soon they were already outside the Shangshu Mansion. The servants, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, were sneering and mocking them, making the three men's faces blue and purple with anger, but they were helpless because of their severe injuries.

"Why are you here?"

The three of them happened to run into the man who had arrived. He looked at them with pity and said, "Your master is truly... harsh."

This man was none other than the housekeeper of Yan Wanwan's house. He took out three ingots of silver and placed them in the hands of the three men. He said earnestly, "My mistress was afraid that you would be implicated in this incident, so she specifically asked me to give you some silver. I didn't expect..."

He looked at the three people, wanting to say something but stopping himself, and in the end everything turned into a sigh of regret.

"You should take care of yourselves in the future and don't help the evildoers."

The three of them looked at each other and spoke in unison to ask her to stay, "Please stay! If Miss Qin doesn't mind us, the three of us are willing to serve her wholeheartedly."

A smile flashed across the housekeeper's eyes, and he thought to himself that the young lady's move was brilliant. Nothing can win people's hearts more than adding icing on the cake and providing timely assistance.

When Chen Mei'e angrily walked into the lobby, she saw Lu Zhengping walking towards her with a smile on his face. When he saw her, his eyes lit up and he took two quick steps forward and asked, "But General Qin is here to propose marriage. I'll go and get ready."

His matter-of-fact words immediately made Chen Mei'e completely furious. "What kind of betrothal gift is this? Qin didn't even take the Shangshu Mansion seriously. He insisted on giving the betrothal gift to the disaster star. He almost got me beaten for taking the disaster star. How audacious!"

Lu Zhengping's eyes instantly turned cold, "So, you didn't ask for the betrothal gifts back?"

"The betrothal gift belongs to General Qin. He can give it to whomever he wants."

Chen Mei'e immediately told the story with exaggeration. After hearing Yan Wanwan and her adoptive mother speak in unison to show respect to the Shangshu Mansion, Lu Zhengping was enveloped in a low pressure.

There was silence for a quarter of an hour, and he didn't say a word, which made it even more terrifying.

"Go tell Qin Wanwan that since we didn't receive the betrothal gift, we can't get what she wants either, so this marriage is off the table."

He said it with such determination that Chen Mei'e was practically paralyzed. "Master, what do you mean by that? Do you still want Wanru to marry him?"

Lu Zhengping angrily scolded, "Our Lu family has raised her for so many years, and now we are just asking her to make a small sacrifice for the Lu family. Why is that not enough?"

"Master, you are so confused! Weren't you planning to marry Wanru to the Second Prince? Why did you suddenly change your mind and decide to give her to the cripple? Not only will you offend General Qin, but you will also offend the Second Prince by going back on your word."

"Shut up, what do women know? I have my own arrangements."

Lu Zhengping left angrily, and Chen Mei'e was heartbroken and cried in the room.

They didn't notice that there was a dark shadow hiding outside the door, which disappeared silently around the corner of the corridor in an instant.

After Yan Wanwan took her mother and sister to enjoy the Jingzhao delicacies, she took them on a shopping spree, spending money lavishly. In one word, her main goal was to buy, buy, buy.

Soon the spacious carriage became crowded. The three of them sat in the middle of the piles of goods. From this look, they looked like peddlers escorting goods, which was quite funny.

Yan Xiaorui was eager to try. "Mom, let me tell you, Jingzhao is so interesting. There are many varieties of things, and the prices are several times higher than in our capital. I decided to stay for a while."

Wang Yuhua saw her clearly with her eyes and said with a casual smile, "What shop did Wanwan give you?"

"Treasure Pavilion, there are so many treasures inside..."

Yan Wanwan held her forehead helplessly. What a sister she was!

Yan Xiaorui's voice suddenly stopped, and she looked at her in shock, "Mom, are you following me? Otherwise, how would you know that my sister gave me the shop?"

Wang Yuhua said with a half-smile, "Your worries are written all over your face. I still need to follow you. You think too highly of yourself."

Yan Xiaorui complained unconvincedly, "Mom, this is unfair. I have no privacy in front of you."

Wang Yuhua was so angry that she laughed. Instead of blaming herself for being a loser, she blamed others for being too strong. This made her feel weak and justified.

Yan Wanwan said in agreement, "That's right, Mom, if you continue like this, it will be difficult for us to be friends."

Yan Xiaorui was also pleased and gave her sister a thumbs up. Her sister was great!

Wang Yuhua closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Having dealt with these two guys in her life, she was afraid that she would only be able to exhale but not breathe in.

Suddenly, a strange fragrance wafted through the air. Yan Wanwan was startled and said solemnly, "Mom, sister, come sit inside."

"what happened?"

Yan Xiaorui had not noticed the changes in the outside world, but Wang Yuhua's expression had become serious. She grabbed Yan Wanwan's hand tightly and pulled her behind her.

"Go sit in the back. You have nothing to do here."

Yan Wanwan was just beginning to feel touched when she was interrupted by the sound of fighting outside the car.

"Don't move, I'll go take a look."

"do not go!"

Wang Yuhua missed the opportunity, and Yan Wanwan had already jumped out of the car. Through the half-lifted curtain, one could see her heroic figure waving a whip.

Yan Xiaorui looked at her in fascination, "When did my sister learn how to crack a whip? She's so handsome and charming."

Wang Yuhua was not as optimistic as she was. Six men in black gathered outside the car. Every move they made was fierce and decisive. They were obviously killers.

One of these people entangled the coachman, and the other five surrounded Yan Wanwan. It was obvious that the girl was their target.

There was a deep coldness in her eyes. Who wanted to attack her daughter?

"Mom, they're coming!"

Seeing that the killers could not get close to Yan Wanwan, they turned their attention to the two people in the car. Two men in black were already running towards the car.

A sharp irony appeared on Wang Yuhua's lips, and the next second...

"Kill them!"
