"What?! You dare to murder Young Master Sun!"
The housekeeper stepped forward, snatched the child from the maid's arms, and slapped her across the face.
"I didn't! It was clearly the young lady who wanted to harm Young Master Sun! The marks on his neck were made by her!"
The maid held her face, speaking in anguish.
"This is her elder brother's son. How could Ruan Xing possibly lay a hand on him."
"Exactly, and Ruan Xing is just a child herself; she couldn't possibly harbor such malevolent intentions."
"Could this maid have been instructed by someone else to do such a thing?"
In an instant, many suspicious glances fell on Qin Zhao.
According to what Ruan Xing had just said, Qin Zhao had become the one who instructed the maid to murder Young Master Sun.
Otherwise, why would she have tried to stop Ruan Xing from saving him?
"What happened?"
From outside the crowd, a man's voice was heard.
Seeing Ruan Xian, everyone cautiously made way.
"Second Young Master."
