At the same time, the Su family in the capital, Su Honghe's study is still brightly lit.

Not long after she fell asleep, she was woken up, saying that her father was looking for her Su Ruowei was walking towards the study at the moment.

On the way, she also asked Qiu Yue to test the little girl who led the way, to see if she could find out what was important for her father to call her to the study in the middle of the night.

It's a pity that the little guy is a strict-mouthed person, and Qiu Yue didn't ask anything.

Su Ruowei frowned when she saw this.

Daddy called her to the study at such a time, something that had never happened before.

But she couldn't ask for any useful news, which made Su Ruowei have a bad premonition in her heart.

"Master, the second lady is here."

The little maid took Su Ruowei to Su Honghe's study, raised his voice and shouted outside the study.

"Let her in."

Su Honghe's deep voice came from inside the house, and the little servant got out of the way and let Su Ruowei in.

When Qiuyue was about to follow Su Ruowei in, she was stopped by the little guy on the side.

"The master only let the second lady in."

Su Ruowei gave Qiu Yue a look, and Qiu Yue could only stand aside obediently and wait.

Su Ruowei pushed the door in, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said coquettishly as usual, "Daddy, it's so late, why haven't you rested yet?" ”

"If you're tired, your daughter feels sorry for you."

"Ruowei, come here, Dad asks you something, and you answer me honestly."

Su Honghe didn't smile as usual, as soon as he saw Su Ruowei, he had a cold face and a serious face at the moment.

Su Ruowei still maintained a smile on her face, but she was secretly vigilant in her heart.

As I walked, I wondered what I had done recently, whether there was anything I couldn't let my father know, and whether I had done a good job of sweeping the tail.

"Recently, it has been inexplicably spread in the capital that your sister has disappeared until now, either dead, or she has lost her innocence and has no face to see people, so she deliberately hid from people and other rumors."

Su Honghe waited for Su Ruowei to walk in front of him, and seemed to be talking casually, but in fact, his eyes had been locked on Su Ruowei's body.

So he clearly saw the nervousness in Su Ruowei's eyes after hearing what he said.

"You know what?"

"My daughter knows."

Su Ruowei adjusted her breathing and replied calmly, "This matter was widely known a few days ago, that is, there are fewer people talking about it these days. ”

Su Honghe didn't go around in circles, "Let me ask you, did you release these rumors?" ”

Su Ruowei was shocked, raised her head in disbelief, and spoke faintly for a while, "Why did Daddy ask this, do you suspect that I did it?" ”

Su Ruowei directly opposed the guest and threw the question to Su Honghe.

Su Honghe looked at Su Ruowei's aggrieved appearance at the moment, if he hadn't sent someone to find out everything a long time ago, maybe he would have felt guilty that he had misunderstood Su Ruowei at this moment.

"The rumors that Su Qianxi may lose his innocence were first spread by a foreigner who came to the capital to deliver goods."

Su Honghe sat on the chair and did not answer Su Ruowei's question, but slowly said the results of his investigation in the past few days.

"I was curious about why a foreigner would spread rumors that were unfavorable to Su Qianxi for no reason, so I sent someone to investigate, and it turned out that he left the capital after delivering the goods."

"The people I sent out in the past few days finally found his traces, and he said that someone gave him a sum of money to spread this rumor to the outside world."

Speaking of this, Su Honghe paused, tilted his body slightly, and asked Su Ruowei with a smile.

"Ruowei, do you know who paid him to do this?"

Su Ruowei's hands hanging down at her side were clenched into fists, her palms were full of sweat, and she pretended to be calm, "Daughter······ Ignorance. ”

"It's your personal maid Qiu Yue who gave him the money and ordered him to do things."

Su Honghe's tone was gentle, but the words he said made Su Ruowei shudder.

"Since you don't know, it's the maid named Qiuyue who made her own decisions."

"No matter how bad the relationship between Su Qianxi and the family is, he is also a member of the Su family, a subordinate, he dares to be so bold as to try to ruin the master's reputation, then he can't stay!!"

"Daddy disposed of this maid ring for you, and tomorrow I will ask the housekeeper to arrange a new maid for you."

As he spoke, Su Honghe raised his hand and knocked on the table twice.

In the quiet study, the crisp sound of bending his fingers tapping on the solid wood was particularly clear, and it was soon heard by the subordinates outside the study, and they immediately pushed the door in.

"Sir, what do you command?"

"Call a few people and go and beat the maid named Qiuyue next to the second lady to death."

"Daddy!!"

Before the servant could answer, he was interrupted by Su Ruowei's sharp voice.

Su Honghe looked sideways at Su Ruowei, "Huh? ”

"Daddy, Qiuyue is very good to me, we get along like sisters, this time Qiuyue did something that shouldn't be done, but Qiuyue is also unhappy for me."

Saying that, Su Ruowei knelt down directly and kowtowed heavily, "Please also ask Daddy to be magnanimous and let Qiu Yue go this time, my daughter will definitely not dare to promise Qiu Yue in the future!" ”

Seeing this, Su Honghe waved his hand, and the subordinate withdrew with interest and closed the door.

After waiting for the next person to go out, Su Honghe put away the smile on his face, slapped the table angrily, and said sharply, "Until now, you still haven't told the truth!" ”

Su Ruowei looked at Su Honghe in a little panic, "Dad····· Daddy? ”

"The man who came from out of town said that the person who bought him gave him a full five hundred taels of silver, and demanded that no matter who came to the door, he would not expose the person who bought him."

"If I hadn't asked the people from the government to come forward, the other party would have been afraid of going to prison, but I didn't know you were so bold."

"I called you over today to give you a chance to confess, but you still chose to lie to me!"

Su Honghe took a deep breath and looked at Su Ruowei's deep eyes full of disappointment.

"A maid is only that little money every month, how many years does it take for her to save five hundred taels of silver to be able to save enough money? You can tell me without changing your face that you don't know!! ”

Su Ruowei didn't expect that her father would have found out everything a long time ago, and called her to come over and ask, just a formality.

And the lies she told by luck were also seen by her father.

Thinking of this, Su Ruowei only felt that her whole body was weak, and the strength in her body seemed to be drained in an instant.

"Why?"

The study was quiet for a long time before Su Honghe's somewhat hoarse voice sounded.

"You have always been well-behaved and sensible, and you are very different from your sister, and your mother and I are most at ease with you, why are you doing this?"

Su Ruowei had a slight cry in her voice, "Daughter······ The daughter was just confused for a while. ”
