Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As soon as these words were heard, the surroundings fell silent.

Shen Ruyue lowered her head slightly. The expression on her face could not be seen, but one did not need to look to know that her expression was not good.

Seeing that her fingers were clenched tightly, Chu Qingzhi hurriedly held her hand and persuaded softly, “Ruyue, Eldest Brother isn’t that kind of person.

Don’t jump to a conclusion just yet. Let’s figure out what happened first.”

Shen Ruyue got a hold of herself and nodded. “I understand, Qingzhi.”

Everyone in the Chu family was thunderstruck. How was this possible? How could Xuhua do this?

The villagers were stunned and had yet to come back to their senses.

Chu Xuhua frowned. “i don’t know you. Don’t slander me.”

The girl’s face was filled with hurt as tears streamed down her face. She was beautiful and looked pitiful.

“Xuhua, I’m already pregnant with your child. How can you bear to deny it? You can abandon me, but you can’t abandon your own child!”

Chu Xuhua was anxious and his face was cold. “1 told you, I don’t know you. I’ve never seen you before!”

Why is this woman slandering me?

Thinking of this, Chu Xuhua suddenly calmed down. The most important thing now was to figure out what was going on.

“You said this is my child. I want to ask, how did we have a child?”

Calm down, calm down. 1 can’t be led by the nose. Fifth Sister said that when something happens, you have to be absolutely clear-headed so that you won’t fall into someone else’s trap.

This was what Chu Qingzhi reminded him when he went out to discuss business.

The lady took a step forward and looked at Chu Xuhua in a daze. “Xuhua, I’m Xue Ying, the former courtesan of the Hundred Flowers Tower. That night, you said that you were in a bad mood and specially came to me for a drink. Then, you got drunk. I served you…”

Towards the end, her face was filled with shyness and tenderness, as if she really liked Chu Xuhua.

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself that this woman’s acting skills could be said to be top-notch. It would not be a problem for her to win an award.

However, she wanted to praise Chu Xuhua for being calm and collected. He was not impulsive or emotional. It seemed that everyone had been growing during this period of time.

Chu Qingzhi let Chu Xuhua handle this matter himself. If he couldn’t handle it, she would take action.

Men were usually very rational. Once they calmed down, their minds would be clear. Chu Xuhua asked, “May I ask what 1 was wearing that day?”

Xue Ying was stunned by the question. “It’s been a long time. I can’t remember clearly.”

“It’s not that you don’t remember clearly, but I didn’t look for you at all. How would you know if you never saw me?” Chu Xuhua glanced at Xue Ying and changed a question. “How many months is your pregnancy?”

Ordinary people couldn’t tell, but experienced midwives could. Coincidentally, there was an experienced midwife present. “She’s at least five months pregnant.”

Chu Xuhua stared at Xue Ying coldly. “Five months pregnant. It means that 1 went to look for you at least six months ago. Do you know what my family’s situation was six months ago?”

Xue Ying was stunned by the question. “Does it matter?”

Chu Xuhua was now completely in control. “Not everyone can enter Hundred Flowers Tower, right?”

Xue Ying subconsciously replied, “The people who enter are mostly rich.”

Chu Xuhua looked at everyone and said, “Everyone in the village knows that six months ago, I was wearing patched clothes all over and was very poor. I couldn’t even take out a single cent. How could 1 possibly enter Hundred Flowers Tower? You’re a courtesan. How could 1 afford your service?”

Xue Ying was stunned and speechless.

No one was stupid. When they saw this, they knew that something was amiss. Gradually, they looked at Xue Ying with hostility.

The Chu family heaved a sigh of relief. If this dirty water was poured on Xuhua, it would be a stain for the rest of his life.

Xue Ying immediately took a step back guiltily.

Shen Ruyue grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s hand with both hands and slowly relaxed. She smiled faintly. Xuhua would not do such a thing.

Chu Qingzhi patted the back of Shen Ruyue’s hand. “Don’t worry, there is nothing between them.”

Shen Ruyue nodded.

“Who asked you to come?” Chu Xuhua interrogated. In fact, he had roughly guessed who it was, but he did not expect the other party to think of such a dirty method to deal with him!

Xue Ying blinked and asked pitifully and innocently, “Xuhua, what are you talking about? No one asked me to come. If anyone really asked me to come, it would be the child in my stomach. He has never seen his father. Xuhua, touch him. He already knows how to kick.”

Chu Xuhua was not in the mood to play with Xue Ying. He said, “Zhang Ziyang asked you to come, right?”

Xue Ying’s expression froze and she quickly denied it. “What Zhang Ziyang? 1 don’t know him.”

Chu Xuhua looked at Xue Ying coldly. “Do you know that slandering people is enough to get you beheaded?”

Beheaded?

A trace of fear flashed in Xue Ying’s eyes.

She did not expect Chu Xuhua to be so difficult to deal with even though he looked silly. With a few words, he managed to turn the situation around.

However, Zhang Ziyang gave her a generous reward. As long as Shen Ruyue and Chu Xuhua broke up, he would give her five hundred taels.

Between her life and five hundred taels…

The village chief believed in Chu Xuhua’s character and spoke up for him. “This woman from the brothel has ulterior motives. She came to harm Xuhua. Everyone, arrest her.”

Xue Ying was so frightened that she took a few steps back. Her beautiful face turned pale as she hurriedly said, “No, don’t. I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you. Zhang Ziyang asked me to come.”

“He didn’t want Shen Ruyue to marry Chu Xuhua. He gave me five hundred taels of silver and asked me to drive a wedge between them. I’ll leave immediately.”

Xue Ying’s heart was pounding. She was terrified. After saying this, she held her stomach and hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the village.

After confirming that it was framing, everyone was relieved.

Grandpa Chu tried to smooth things over. “Everyone, continue eating. Just treat that little episode as a show for us.”

“The people in the city are so despicable now!”

“That’s right. They even used such a dirty method. Fortunately, Ruyue didn’t choose that man. Otherwise, her future would be difficult.”

“Let’s not talk about those bad people. Let’s eat, let’s eat…”

Chu Xuhua walked towards Shen Ruyue and said apologetically, “Ruyue, I’m sorry. I must have made you feel terrible just now.”

Shen Ruyue smiled at Chu Xuhua. “1 was indeed shocked just now, but the misunderstanding has been cleared. Not only that, but 1 also saw your wise and calm side. You did well.”

Chu Xuhua smiled embarrassedly. “Fifth Sister taught me how to handle difficult situations..”
