Old Madam Qiao turned the Buddha beads in her hand and said, "If the news spreads out, it may implicate the imperial grandson. This matter must be concealed."
About half an hour later, the voice of Qiao Jinniang calling for Hongling finally sounded in the room.
Old Madam Qiao said sharply at the door. "Hongling has been tied up. Jinniang, come out quickly."
When Qiao Jinniang heard her grandmother's voice, she blushed red and glanced at Lu Chen. "Damn!"
Lu Chen had been practicing martial arts, so he had very acute hearing. He had long heard the noises outside.
He also heard the Qiao family planning how to hide from him the fact that Jinniang had "cuckolded" him…
Lu Chen: "What are you afraid of? You are not committing adultery anyway."
Qiao Jinniang pinched the flesh on Lu Chen's waist. "My reputation has completely been ruined by you."
