When Lu Ning took out her phone, the entire room was completely silent.

Qin Xiang was so frightened that she felt cold all over. She turned to look at Lu Dongyou and said, "Brother, I want to rest. I don't want to stay here and see that disgusting butler."

"Wait, there's no rush."

Lu Bei blocked Qin Xiang's path: "Weren't you so confident just now? Now you're feeling guilty and want to run away?"

Just a moment ago they were determined to convict Lu Ning, but now that they see the video, they want to run away?

Qin Xiang's eyes flickered slightly: "The truth is obvious. I'm the victim. Lu Ning got away scot-free in the end, didn't she?"

Why keep harping on her?

Lu Ning immediately opened the video. Although the lighting was dim, it was still very clear: the butler was on top of Qin Xiang.

Lu Dongyou shifted his gaze: "Just turn your voice up a bit."

After all, it's not a good look for him, as the eldest brother, to do something like this.

Soon, the butler's cursing voice rang out: "So what if you're a young lady? I still slept with you. Who told you to offend Miss Xiangxiang? She won't let you get away with this..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Nanfeng raised his hand and slapped Qin Xiang across the face: "What else do you have to say? How could you be so vicious?"

Lu Nanfeng never expected that Qin Xiang would actually have the housekeeper do such a thing!

How dare she, Qin Xiang, an adopted daughter?

Lu Bei questioned Lu Dongyou: "Brother, now the truth is out, did you hear that? Qin Xiang orchestrated all of this, that's the kind of person she is!"

Lu Dongyou seemed to have suffered some kind of blow.

He looked up at Lu Ning, his eyes filled with guilt, but he didn't know how to speak.

At this moment, the butler shouted, "I... I was drunk and talking nonsense. I did all of this myself, and no one instructed me. It's because the young lady wanted to kick me out that I was unwilling to accept it, so I did this."

The housekeeper took on all the responsibilities.

After hearing what the housekeeper said, Qin Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief; it was no longer her concern.

Qin Xiang immediately cried out in grievance, "Big brother, I know Sister Ningning has never liked me, but I've never had any ill intentions towards her, and I would never do such a vicious thing. Besides, I'm the one who ends up being the victim!"

Lu Dongyou, feeling a little soft-hearted, helped Qin Xiang up: "I know you're not that kind of person."

Lu Bei snorted coldly: "Qin Xiang, you've shot yourself in the foot. You deserve it!"

"Enough! Can't you see Xiangxiang is in just as bad shape?"

Lu Dongyou kicked the butler: "Lock this guy in the basement and send him to the police station tomorrow."

Lu Ning said sarcastically, "Why don't we call the police now? Didn't Qin Xiang say there was a problem with the milk I gave her? Let's have her blood tested now to see if she actually drank it."

Qin Xiang was a little scared because she hadn't drunk any of the problematic milk.

Qin Xiang quickly said to Lu Dongyou, "Brother, let's not call the police for now. I'm afraid it will damage the Lu family's reputation if word gets out, and I don't want anyone to know about this."

If the police find out anything, she'll be in big trouble.

Lu Dongyou nodded: "Xiangxiang, you're so sensible. Go back to your room, take a shower and rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

"Stop! Did I say you could leave? Calling the police isn't something you can decide for yourself."

Lu Ning was surprised that the evidence was so obvious, yet Lu Dongyou still wanted to protect Qin Xiang.

Lu Dongyou walked up to her, his tone commanding: "Enough. You could have stopped all of this from happening, but you still watched Xiangxiang being raped by the housekeeper. Do you think you're completely in the right?"

Lu Ning looked up: "This is what they call reaping what you sow. She deserves it for reaping what she sowed."

The truth is something everyone knows in their hearts.

Lu Dongyou angrily raised his hand to hit someone, but Lu Ning blocked it heavily with her hand. Her tone was icy: "What, did I say something wrong? You dare to say that you don't know what's going on, but you're still protecting Qin Xiang!"

Lu Dongyou's expression changed slightly; no matter what, this matter could not be allowed to escalate.

"But Xiangxiang is also in a terrible situation right now, isn't she? Let's just let this go. Lu Ning, delete the video from your phone right now."

"Deleting it is out of the question. I received such a big surprise on my first day back. I'm definitely going to get to the bottom of this."

"So what do you want? You heard it too, this has nothing to do with Xiangxiang. The housekeeper took all the blame. Even if you call the police, it won't do any good!"

Lu Dongyou's words carried a threat.

Lu Ning's eyes were filled with sarcasm, which made Lu Dongyou feel a little guilty. In the end, he turned around and left the room with Qin Xiang.

Lu Nanfeng approached Lu Ning and said, "Ningning, you can sleep in the guest room tonight. I'll have someone clean the room again."

Lu Bei looked at Lu Ning: "Did you already know about Qin Xiang's plan?"

Otherwise, why would Qin Xiang have appeared in Lu Ning's room out of the blue?

Lu Ning's eyes flashed coldly: "How could I possibly know Qin Xiang's plans? It can only be said that evil has its retribution."

She glanced at the empty milk bottle on the table: "There's still a little bit left inside; we can use it as evidence."

As for the milk, she definitely didn't drink it; she poured most of it away.

The remaining little bit can be used as evidence.

Lu Nanfeng looked at Lu Ning with a complicated expression. In fact, he had guessed that Lu Ning must know Qin Xiang's plan, which was why she turned the tables and made Qin Xiang suffer the consequences.

Everyone had already guessed it.

Lu Nanfeng said, "Ningning, you should go to your room and rest early. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

Lu Ning turned and went to the guest room.

Lu Nanfeng couldn't help but speak up: "Fourth brother, have you noticed that Ningning has changed a lot? She knew Qin Xiang's vicious scheme, and she could have stopped it, but she stayed in the bathroom and just watched as the housekeeper..."

Lu Nanfeng was a little taken aback; Lu Ning could actually stand by and do nothing.

Lu Bei was speechless: "Second brother, if Lu Ning hadn't been smart, she would be the victim today. I think Lu Ning did the right thing; Qin Xiang should taste the consequences of her own actions."

"Giving Qin Xiang a lesson is enough, there's no need to go to such lengths, is there?"

Lu Nanfeng felt that Lu Ning's act of witnessing Qin Xiang being raped by the housekeeper gave him an indescribable feeling.

"Second brother, you're being too saintly. Lu Ning did nothing wrong. We should call the police directly and let them investigate; maybe they can find out it's related to Qin Xiang."

"Forget it, calling the police would be bad for our girl's reputation. Besides, Qin Xiang has already suffered enough."

Lu Bei disagreed with these words, but in the end he didn't call the police and decided to wait until tomorrow.

Lu Ning returned to her guest room alone and locked the door from the inside.

Lying in bed, she thought about the scene between Qin Xiang and the housekeeper earlier. Tsk tsk tsk, that white lotus flower would probably be furious.

This is quite a show!

Lu Ning was too excited to sleep. She took out her phone and found that Ji Chiqian had sent her a message, asking her to reply when she was done with her work.

She thought for a moment and replied, "You've just finished watching a big show, you should be asleep by now. I'll tell you tomorrow."

She had just sent the message when Ji Chiqian made a video call.

After Lu Ning answered the phone, she looked at the man on the other end of the line and asked, "You're still awake so late?"

His gaze was deep: "Because you haven't replied to my message yet."

Lu Ning smiled, pursing her lips: "If I don't come back all night, will you wait all night?"

"I might wait outside the Lu family's house."

Lu Ning knew he wasn't lying, so she rolled around on the bed and said, "I really didn't have time to reply to you just now."

"what happened?"

"The scheming woman tried to plot against me, but in the end, she bore all the consequences herself."

Lu Ning recounted everything that had just happened.

When Ji Chiqian heard that there was something wrong with the milk, his expression immediately darkened: "I'll come pick you up."

"No need, I'm not that stupid. The only person Bai Lianhua can use right now is the butler, and now that the butler is gone, the only person she can rely on is her father who is still alive."

This was exactly the result she wanted.

Ji Chiqian's gaze was cold and stern: "But I'm not at ease."

"It's alright. My skills aren't bad now, and besides, apart from my eldest brother, all the other brothers are on my side for the time being."

Lu Ning is determined to drive the innocent-looking woman to the brink of despair.

Ji Chiqian pursed his thin lips. He had also sent people to investigate Qin Xiang's father, but so far there were no clues.

After chatting for a while, Lu Ning fell asleep.

Hearing the steady breathing from the other end, Ji Chiqian's gaze softened considerably.

He also thought that the car accident back then was just an accident, but he didn't expect there to be a hidden story. It should be investigated again. What exactly is the Mo family hiding?

the next day.

After Lu Ning woke up, she took a taxi and yawned as she went downstairs. She saw a lot of people and servants gathered in the lobby on the first floor.

She walked over in surprise: "What happened?"

"The housekeeper committed suicide in the basement last night."
