Chapter 522 Shocked, Who Is the Real Fifth Miss Shao?

Shuqi waited outside, rubbing her hands from time to time, with her heart torn with anxiety. Suddenly, she saw someone coming from the distance with a lantern, so she hurriedly reached out and to knock on the door of the hall and said in a low voice, “Miss, Miss, they are coming. Come out quickly!”

Hearing no response from inside, Shuqi reached out to knock on the door again and said anxiously with her face changing dramatically, “Miss, Miss! Hurry up.”

She looked up and found that a group of people had come over. Someone seemed to have seen her and reached out to point at her. Shuqi had no time to think about something else and hurried into the hall.

It was so dark in the hall that she couldn’t see her hand in front of her. After taking only a few steps, Shuqi almost tripped over something and fell. She hurriedly reached out to hold the pillar beside her and said with her head covered with sweat in the dark, “Miss, First Miss, are you here? First Young Master Qi, First Young Master Qi!”

She did not dare to raise her voice and could only keep calling their names. However, it was completely silent in the hall with the slightest sound.

Suddenly, there came a low groan. Shuqi listened to it carefully, only to find that it did not seem like her master’s voice, but seemed like a man’s voice.

Then there came another groan which seemed like a lady’s voice. As soon as Shuqi heard the familiar voice, she became overjoyed at once and hurriedly felt her way toward the direction, while saying anxiously, “Miss, First Miss, let’s go quickly. They are coming!”

“What happened?” In the dark, Qi Tianyu rubbed his head where he felt a dull pain, sat up with his hand on the altar table and asked.

“First… First Young Master Qi?” After freezing for a while, Shuqi looked toward the direction, where the voice came from, and asked.

“It’s me. Who hit me?” Qi Tianyu, who still felt a headache, stood up straight and rubbed his head with one hand, while saying. He tried to close his eyes, which barely made him feel less dizzy.

“Shuqi, Shuqi!” There came Shao Yanru’s weak voice in the dark later.

Shuqi rushed toward the direction, but suddenly heard someone tripped over something and fell to the ground, followed by Shao Yanru’s scream in pain.

“Miss, First Miss, is it you? Let’s go. They are coming!” Shuqi groped in the dark, while saying anxiously.

“First Miss Shao?” Qi Tianyu, who also recognized Shao Yanru’s voice at this moment, pulled himself together and said with his face changing immediately.

“It’s me. Why did I faint? Someone knocked me out just now!” Shao Yanru said. At this moment, she had realized that something went wrong. She stood up with the help of Shuqi, who reached out to her hurriedly, and asked, “Is there a side door here?”

Qi Tianyu came earlier than her, so he must have seen the surrounding environment.

“Yes, come with me!” Qi Tianyu responded quickly and said in a hurry. He was flustered, because he came here to meet Shao Wanru in secret. However, he met Shao Yanru instead of Shao Wanru, and both of them were knocked out. At the moment, he immediately realized that something went wrong.

It was not the time to talk it over, so he turned around and walked to the side door while making some sounds to lead Shao Yanru and Shuqi to come over.

When Shao Yanru and Shuqi joined him and the three of them hurried to the side door, there came the footsteps from outside of the hall. As the door was kicked open under their shocked gaze, the strong light shone in from outside.

Shao Yanru hurriedly reached out to block the strong light from outside.

A large group of people came in suddenly.

“Tianyu, I’ve been looking for you everywhere, for fear that you would have an accident. Unexpectedly… you are meeting a girl secretly here?” The young official of the Ministry of Justice came in and said with laughter. However, he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him. With a stiff smile, he glanced at Qi Tianyu and then glanced at Shao Yanru, who reached out to cover her eyes, and said, “Isn’t… this the Fifth Miss Shao?”

Shuqi hurriedly reached out to hold Shao Yanru’s head in her arms and kept her head down, so flustered that she did not dare to move.

“Qiu Yu, I’m fine. You can leave now!” Qi Tianyu touched his head without giving a definite answer, and just waved his hand in displeasure.

“I… I really didn’t know that you and the Fifth Miss Shao are here. If I had known it before… I… I won’t have brought others here.” Qiu Yu said with a smile, acting like he really felt embarrassed because of ruining his friend’s secret meeting. After finishing his words, he waved his hand and said to those behind him, “Let’s go. It’s no big deal. He’s here. But keep your mouth shut after getting out of here in case of ruining the Miss’s reputation!”

“Okay!” Those present answered listlessly. Many of them smiled, expecting a good show.

Numerous people knew that the two Misses of Duke Xing’s Mansion were on the mountain. One of them was the First Miss Shao, the most beautiful lady in the capital city, and the other was naturally the Fifth Miss Shao in front of them, who was said to be a “filial daughter”. However, they could tell that the Fifth Miss Shao was not a decent lady based on the fact that she met a man in secret.

Under the cover of a good reputation, she was actually extremely lascivious!

They had thought that the young official’s friend was missing. In view of what had happened in the Yuhui Nunnery recently, they helped the young official search for his friend, but they didn’t expect to see this. How could it be possible for them to keep their mouth shut? They had never seen such a thing before.

An unmarried Miss met a man in secret. What an alluring thing! They happened to witness it.

A large group of people left successively. Shao Yanru secretly let out a sigh of relief in the dark and looked relieved. Fortunately, she had wrapped herself firmly with her clothes and covered her eyes with her hands because of the strong light. Otherwise, she would inevitably be exposed in front of those officials. Although they didn’t see Shao Wanru, Shao Wanru still had to take the blame.
