Jian Yue sneered: "You can't handle this? There are worse things to come. Don't forget, your young lady was able to come back because she was to marry in her place."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui thought of the crooked-mouthed and slanted-eyed young master and felt indignant: "There's not a single good person in the Qiu family. Miss, you can't just give in to their wishes like this."

Jian Yue listened without changing her expression, but glanced at Qiu Bo, who had distanced himself from them, and continued, "In this place that eats people without spitting out the bones, even if there are good people, they would have paid for it with their lives long ago."

So it's better not to have it. Later, when dealing with it, there won't be any lingering attachments. Xiao Cui, you must remember, being kind to others is being cruel to yourself. The beautiful scenery you see now hides countless misfortunes. They are all devils, waiting for you to make a mistake, and then they will devour you completely.

Jian Yue's words were tinged with coldness, and Xiao Cui felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She was somewhat bewildered, and her face showed a hint of confusion. However, after only a moment, she changed her expression and said as if she had made up her mind, "Miss, from now on, Xiao Cui will protect you."

"Ah."

Jian Yue smiled, very satisfied with Xiao Cui.

This cannibalistic place is a place where naivety guarantees a terrible death; only by shattering all bones can one survive.

She brought such an innocent child into this cannibalistic place so that she would understand that this was not heaven, but hell.

Upon entering the mansion, Jian Yue was settled in a courtyard that was very far from the main courtyard. Jian Yue was familiar with this courtyard; it was the same courtyard she had moved to when she met Murong Chuan in her previous life.

The butler brought her over and left without giving her any instructions, clearly ignoring Jian Yue's words when she came in: "Don't keep the madam waiting."

Without a doubt, this was done on Sun's orders, and the purpose was naturally to suppress Jian Yue. Jian Yue understood this perfectly well, but she was happy to have some peace and quiet and wouldn't bother to remind her. After the housekeeper left, she told Xiao Cui to start tidying up the house.

"Miss, please have a seat here. I will clean this room soon."

The two found the master bedroom, and Xiao Cui immediately made a stool for Jian Yue to sit on. Then, while quickly taking out cleaning tools, she kept muttering, "This Qiu Feng is really a scoundrel. Even if Miss's status is not good, she was still invited back by Master. Madam still wants to take advantage of Miss and treats her like this. It's really too much."

Jian Yue smiled and said, "This is nothing. If I hadn't been given a good beating, my mother would never have shown up. Madam Sun is proud and arrogant. If she could tolerate me, I wouldn't have been able to leave the Qiu family so easily back then."

To completely control someone, you naturally have to erase every last bit of their dignity. If the person you want to use is the one you dislike the most, you have to make things difficult for them to vent your frustration.

Jian Yue could easily imagine Sun Shi's true colors at this moment. If it weren't for the fact that the matter involved her most beloved daughter, she would have preferred Jian Yue to die on the estate.

The capacity for tolerance was completely absent in the Sun family.

"Xiao Cui knows, but even tigers don't eat their cubs. Doesn't Miss's father have even the slightest affection for her?"
