Chapter 8: The Truth Revealed
The truth was finally revealed, everyone retreated, and Zhou Youyi also took Ning'er back to the West Courtyard.
Shen Che stood in place, looking at the woman's back without looking back, her thin lips pursed slightly, and her face was thoughtful.
The night is getting darker, and Zhou Youyi is staying in the room to practice calligraphy, holding a wolf in her hand, running a pen smoothly, looking meticulous and extremely serious.
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door, and there was a sound of "knock knock".
Zhou Youyi paused for a moment and asked in a loud voice, "Who is it?"
“...... It's me. Shen Che's deep and magnetic voice came from outside the door, as if he was hesitant.
"Please come in. With that, Zhou Youyi lowered her head again and continued to practice calligraphy.
Immediately, Shen Che slowly pushed the door in, stood still not far from Zhou Youyi, looked at her focused appearance, hesitated for a moment, but did not speak.
Seeing that the man hadn't moved for a long time, Zhou Youyi couldn't help but raise her head and asked out loud, "You came here so late, is there something wrong?"
"I'm ......" Shen Che moved his lips, and for a while, he seemed to be fully prepared, and raised his voice and said, "Ruowei's matter, I misunderstood you, I'm sorry." ”
Zhou Youyi didn't even look at Shen Che with her eyes, and let out a voice from her nose: "Hmm." ”
At the end of the words, Zhou Youyi put away the pen and paper, walked to the dressing mirror, took off her hairpin by herself, and prepared to go to bed.
"That's it?" Shen Che blurted out subconsciously, thinking that she would be angry and aggrieved, but who would have thought that Zhou Youyi's reaction would be so understated.
"Otherwise, I still have to thank you for forgiving me?" Zhou Youyi raised her eyebrows slightly, she never needed anyone's understanding, in this life, in the previous life, did she ever do anything sorry for Shen Che, didn't she know in her heart?
"Nope. Shen Che replied stiffly, feeling a burst of boredom in his heart for no reason, as if a fist had hit cotton.
After Zhou Youyi finished washing, she found that Shen Che was still in the room, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Are you okay?"
These days, he has been staying in Du Ruowei's room, and Zhou Youyi naturally thought that he was going back, and he stayed here because there was something else.
Shen Che hesitated for a second before he pretended to sit down on the edge of the bed and said, "Didn't I promise you a one-month deadline before? ”
Zhou Youyi was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses, bowed her head slightly, and responded: "Okay, then I'll help you take off your coat." ”
Shen Che raised his hand and let her help him take off his coat, looking at the woman's delicate face, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
At the same time, in the courtyard, Du Ruowei saw that Shen Che had not arrived for a long time, and her heart became more and more anxious: "Why hasn't Ah Che come to see me yet?" Bihuan, go and help me inquire where the eldest young master is." ”
"Yes. ”
After a while, Bihuan returned to the other courtyard, panting and said, "Slave maid, slave maid has inquired, the eldest and eldest young master ...... today In the room of the young lady. ”
"Young lady?" Du Ruowei instantly frowned, gritted her teeth, and muttered to herself, "Okay, you Zhou Youyi, you dare to rob Ah Che with me, I will definitely want you to look good! Ah Che is mine, no one can snatch it away!"
Bihuan lowered her head and stood beside Du Ruowei, not daring to say a word.
Du Ruowei thought for a moment, suddenly took it to heart, whispered a few words to Bihuan, and then narrowed her eyes, her gaze fell into the distance, and a sneer appeared on her lips.
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Bihuan hurried to the West Courtyard to see Shen Che.
"What's the matter?" Shen Che had just changed his clothes, walked out of the inner room slowly, and asked in a deep voice.
Bihuan knelt on the ground and said nervously: "Young Master, it's not good, Miss Du got up early in the morning and said that her stomach hurts, okay, it seems to be the sequelae of miscarriage, go and take a look!"
"Let's go. Shen Che's face sank suddenly, and he immediately opened his long legs and strode towards the courtyard.
When Zhou Youyi finished changing clothes and walked out, she found that Shen Che had disappeared, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
Ning Er snorted lightly and mocked: "It's not the one in the other courtyard, I yelled about my stomach ache early in the morning and called my uncle away." What can she do? In my opinion, she is just a poor ** pretending to be pitiful!"
"Ning'er, this is the Shen Mansion, always remember to be cautious in your words and deeds. Zhou Youyi's face was slightly gloomy, and she reminded in a low voice, and then thought of something, and ordered, "Send someone to keep an eye on her, and if there is any abnormality, report to me immediately." ”
Du Ruowei has only been in the house for a few days, and there has been a lot of commotion, I'm afraid it's not a good stubble, it's better to keep an eye on it.
"Yes. Ning'er nodded, closed her mouth, and didn't dare to say anything more.
On the other side, when Shen Che arrived at the courtyard, he saw Du Ruowei lying on the bed, her face pale and weak.
Seeing Shen Che coming, she tried to get up, and at the same time called, "Ah Che." ”
"Don't get up, lie down, I'm here with you, huh?" Shen Che tucked the quilt for her and said softly.
Du Ruowei nodded, her watery eyes were full of emotion, and she replied softly: "Ah Che, it's good that you are here." ”
For several days, Du Ruowei kept Shen Che in her room under various pretexts.
Looking at the man's sleeping face, she hooked her lips slightly, and there was a hint of pride in her smile.
If you want to fight with her, it's not so easy!Zhou Youyi, you just stay in your west courtyard and slowly die of old age!
That day, Zhou Youyi was reading a book in the room, and from time to time she picked up the tea at hand and sipped it one by one.
At this time, Ning Er walked into the room quickly and reported: "Miss, the person who was sent to keep an eye on Miss Du has returned, and he also caught her with other men!"
Sure enough, a sneer escaped from Zhou Youyi's lips, and she immediately ordered: "Take them to the main hall, and then find the eldest young master." ”
"Yes. ”
Not long after, Zhou Youyi, Shen Che, Du Ruowei and the strange man all gathered in the main hall, and the atmosphere was solemn.
"What's going on?" Shen Che asked with cold eyes staring at Du Ruowei and the strange man.
The young lady felt that Miss Du was different, so she sent the villain to keep an eye on it. Recently, the villain found that she often sneaked out of the house while the young master was away, so she secretly followed her. Who would have thought that Miss Du would have a tryst with this man outside the mansion, and the villain would arrest them together. The subordinate sent by Zhou Youyi explained, and at the end of the sentence, he glanced at Du Ruowei with disdain.
"Wronged! Ah Che, you believe me! I didn't have a tryst with others, let alone betray you!" Du Ruowei's tears instantly burst out of her eyes, and she cried, "This is all deliberately framed by the young lady, Ah Che, you must be the master for me!"
Zhou Youyi's face suddenly turned cold, and she retorted in a deep voice: "Miss Du, you said that I framed you, did I force you to go out of the house to meet this man?"
Du Ruowei's eyes flickered, and she cried to Shen Che reluctantly: "Ah Che, you believe me, I really didn't do anything to be sorry for you!"
"Young Master, this is the burden in her hand when she caught Miss Du. At this time, the subordinate handed a package to Shen Che and explained.
Shen Che took the burden and opened it to see that it contained a lot of silver taels, as well as one of his jade wrenches, which was worth a lot of money!
