Otherworldly Companions: Every Handsome Man is Extraordinary

Mrs. Tini felt a sense of satisfaction as she looked at Jiang Yu.

She had initially thought that this Lord Jiangyu was intelligent, quick-witted, and of high birth, possessing great wisdom. Having overheard her report that day, she had developed some admiration for her, especially considering the Emperor's attitude—he hadn't praised any young lord like this in years.

Unfortunately, within a few days, she saw her true colors; she was also someone who abused power and was blinded by lust.

Everyone says Ren Kecheng is reckless and foolish, disregarding her noble status and becoming a laughingstock for her love affair. Yet, her passion was given to a nobleman of equal standing, and she did so openly and honestly. Meanwhile, this Lord Jiangyu, though seemingly upright and honorable, harbors many despicable and underhanded schemes, making him utterly contemptible.

Poor Zhong Qin, if he hadn't met her, how could he have escaped the clutches of such a cunning and noble lord?

Thinking of this, she looked at Jiang Yu and Fan Qingyin with a mocking gaze. Let her experience the feeling of being manipulated and oppressed by higher power. Only when the knife cuts on oneself will one feel pain, and only when one experiences pain firsthand will one remember it deeply.

Let her help the Jiang family discipline this two-faced young lord.

"What's the rush? I don't think Lord Jiang Yu's condition is caused by illness. However, I do have a good medicine here, but I don't know if it will make Lord Jiang Yu feel better immediately or worsen her so-called illness. I'm also very curious. Why don't we wait a while? The show is about to begin."

Her words were strange, and even Fan Qingyin was a little confused. Although he had guessed that Zhong Qin was behind it all and that he had some unclear and disgusting relationship with the wife of the emperor of the Ocean Empire, he was only worried that Xiao Yu would be troubled because of Chen Xin's betrayal. But now he realized that he had probably thought too simply.

The fire had now spread to Jiang Yu. Hearing Mrs. Tini say this, he felt a great sense of unease.

“Mrs. Tiny, please enlighten me.” Jiang Yu finally managed to suppress the turmoil in her heart, straightened up from Fan Qingyin’s arms, and tried to appear calm. “Judging from your tone, there seems to be some misunderstanding about me. Has something happened that you find puzzling?” She also tried her best to maintain her politeness and make her words sound harmless and pleasant.

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or something else, we'll find out soon enough. It's not that I find it hard to understand; I have my own ways of figuring things out. I was wondering how to find you, but I didn't expect you to come to me on your own. With your intelligence, you should know what I know. But don't worry, we'll have a chance to explain things one by one."

Mrs. Tinie remained unhurried. She put down her wine glass. "So this was a spur-of-the-moment decision; some things are better done today."

Jiang Yu was furious. Talking to this First Lady was such a hassle; she was utterly fed up with this cryptic communication style. Unfortunately, the First Lady's status was too high, and she had the Jiang family backing her. It seemed Zhong Qin had really spread a lot of rumors; she never realized he was so cunning.

She had no idea how far this matter would develop. When she guessed that the figure who had been hiding and hurriedly disappeared was actually Zhong Qin, she could hardly imagine how heartbroken Chen Xin would be when she found out. Being betrayed by a lover, especially by someone you gave everything to love, was something no one could bear.

At the same time, she kept praying in her heart that Jiang Yi would be safe and sound.

"Mrs. Tini, could you tell me if you've heard anything from others? It's difficult to draw conclusions based on just one person's words. You must know that the truth of a matter is often determined and influenced by many factors. If it concerns me, shouldn't I have the right to know? Why don't you tell me, and I'll answer your questions one by one?" Jiang Yu patiently pleaded again.

Mrs. Tini tilted her head, staring at Jiang Yu with a half-smile. Instead of answering her question, she said, "It's about time." As she spoke, she stood up, casually smoothed the wrinkles on her skirt, tidied her hair, and then smiled as she looked towards the corridor, as if waiting for something.

Fan Qingyin's unease grew. He considered some bad possibilities, so he grabbed Jiang Yu, only to find that he couldn't find any excuse to leave right now. When Jiang Yu turned around, he also saw the unease and surprise in her eyes.

His little fish is so smart, how could she need him to remind her before she realized something was wrong?

So he had no choice but to play the role of comforter again, saying softly, "It's okay, Xiaoyu, it's okay."

"The divine messenger is truly deeply in love with Lord Jiang Yu. I wonder if you are also kept in the dark, or if you are an accomplice," Lady Tini said sarcastically. "Lord Jiang Yu has such intelligence that he can guess the general outline of things based on just a few clues. Can you guess what kind of good show will be staged next?"

"Isn't Mrs. Tini being a bit too aggressive? My wife and I are newcomers here, and we have no idea what kind of trouble we've gotten ourselves into." Fan Qingyin had always been aloof and proud, and had never been so angry before.

Mrs. Tini snorted coldly, and before she could say anything, two figures walked down the corridor.

"Qin, why did you bring me to such a remote place? Did Xiaoyu really send you to find me?" Chen Xin's voice came. But there was no response from Zhong Qin.

Jiang Yu opened her eyes wide and saw Zhong Qin and Chen Xin walking one after the other from the corner of the corridor. The night was deep and the lights in the courtyard were dim. Under the dark shadows of the trees, Zhong Qin's beautiful face was revealed, and it even had a hint of eeriness.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, you're really here! Aqin said you were looking for me, and I didn't quite believe it at first. This courtyard is totally in the style of the Forest Empire! Oh, who is this lady?" Seeing that Jiang Yu and Fan Qingyin were indeed here, Chen Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, the darker and more remote the area became, the more her heart pounded.

The main problem is that I don't know how Zhong Qin, who was visiting the palace for the first time, managed to find such a remote and secluded place.

Jiang Yu opened her mouth, a thought flashing through her mind like lightning, so fast it was gone before she could even process it. Before she could utter a sound, she saw Zhong Qin glance at her emotionlessly, a look that felt like a bucket of cold water poured over her. How could she think that such a person was satisfied with merely receiving Chen Xin's unconditional love?

They were all used to his doting, affectionate, humble, and deeply devoted manner.

They were all deceived by him.

Sure enough, the next moment, the tall figure in front rushed straight to Mrs. Tini's feet like a swallow returning to its nest: "Madam, please save me."
