However, when Chu Yunqian saw Chu Yunyao's face clearly, she was so disgusted that she took a few steps back. She forcefully retracted the hand about to slap Chu Yunyao's face and wiped it with her handkerchief, afraid it would be stained with sticky and disgusting pus and blood.
Chu Yunyao pretended to be timid and ignorant as she stared at the large group of people who had barged in horror. She shrank her thin shoulders and asked with a sobbing tone, "Who are you? What are you doing?"
Standing behind Chu Yunqian, Nanny Xu stepped forward and covered her nose. She glared at Chu Yunyao disgustingly, "Young Miss's most beloved cat died at your doorstep. You must have killed it."
Chu Yunyao shook her head and insisted, "I didn't kill it. I don't know why it died."
Nanny Xu was scary. "Miss's cat died the moment you came. The cat leaves footprints on your windowsill. Who else could have done it?"
Chu Yunqian had already lost her patience, "Why waste so much time talking to a fool? Just beat her up, drag her out, and make her kowtow a hundred times in front of my cat."
Chu Yunqian cried desperately as she spoke, "You ugly monster, you lowly country bumpkin. Your cheap life is not even worth one of my cat's eyes."
"If it weren't for the fact that you would help me marry that crazy murderer, I definitely would have killed you today."
Chu Yunyao was thinking about what she said. She lowered her head, even more to hide a glimmer of brilliance in her eyes.
In that case, the person who was supposed to marry into the Military Governor's family should have been the eldest daughter of the Chu family, Chu Yunqian.
This meant that there was no way Chu Xunqian could have poisoned the food and water.
After all, Chu Yunqian needed her to marry the Mo family.
However, she did not expect that the Young Marshal of the Military Governor was a murderous demon. She did not know how cruel and perverted he was.
Although she had grown up in the Dark Sect and seen all kinds of killing methods, she had never killed an innocent person. Instead, she had saved countless people.
The strong servants thought Chu Yunyao was so thin that she could not fight against them. They wanted to please the eldest daughter of the Chu family even more, so they rushed forward and pulled her hands, clothes, and even her hair.
Chu Yunyao was angry. She straightened her slender back and was about to break the man's arm when she heard Uncle Liang's voice.
"Eldest Young Miss, Fifth Young Miss, Old Master is here."
Uncle Liang rushed in from outside and pushed the servants pulling Chu Yunyao aside. He whispered, "Miss, don't be afraid. Old Master will help you."
After spending two days traveling with him, Uncle Liang noticed that Chu Yunyao was quiet, timid and calm. Unlike the other young ladies, she was not arrogant and domineering. She even showed concern for his well-being.
Thinking that his daughter was about the same age as Chu Yunyao, he felt pity for her and was especially concerned about her.
Early this morning, he saw the Eldest Young Miss enter Chu Yunyao's room with a few shrewish women, so he immediately informed Chu Qingze.
Chu Yunyao looked at Uncle Liang gratefully.
When she looked at Chu Qingze, she disdained secretly. How could a scumbag father like Chu Qingze stand up for her?
Chu Yunqian cried as soon as she saw Chu Qingze. She held her handkerchief and sobbed as she pointed at Chu Yunyao, "Dad, you have to be on my side. That cat is a foreign gift from Jinchen. It is precious to me.
But she poisoned it to death."
Chu Qingze's eyebrows twitched. He glared at Chu Yunyao and scolded her without knowing the truth, "What did that cat do to offend you? Do you have to poison it to death?"
