CHAPTER 501 2 : SU XI-ER ENRAGED (1/2)

“Liuli, do you want to save Zhen Yu?”

“I want to, but I don’t think it was my brother. You shouldn’t suspect him. A person wouldn’t harm the person they like. Maybe she has gone to search for Brother Hu; she was already visiting the Prince Hao Residence over these past couple days, asking when you and Prince Hao would be returning.”

Su Xi-er glanced at Pei Qianhao, and saw him nodding to her. He’s naturally clear about what I’m thinking.

A moment later, Pei Qianhao waved his hand and instructed a guard, “Commandery Princess Xie is a guest at the Prince Hao Residence, we must entertain her well. She’ll be staying here and accompanying the Princess Consort for the next few days until Zhen Yu returns.”

Since Xie Yun abducted Zhen Yu, we’ll hold his younger sister captive.

Xie Liuli immediately understood his intentions. “It couldn’t have been my brother! I’m really sure! I believe him! I won’t complain even if you hold me captive, and I also won’t run away.”

Su Xi-er grasped her hand. “Liuli, if it isn’t your brother, I will apologise to you. But if it is, don’t blame me for…”

“I understand. If it’s really him, he should pay the price.” Xie Liuli felt as if a knife had stabbed into her heart.

This is for Elder Brother, for Zhen Yu, and also myself.

After Xie Liuli was escorted into the Prince Hao Residence, the guards from the Commandery Prince Residence immediately brought the news to the wooden house in the mountains.

At this moment, Xie Yun was attempting to coax Zhen Yu into eating.

“Go away.” Zhen Yu avoided him, afraid of him getting near her.

“Just take one bite. Don’t compromise your body.”

“I don’t want to!” Despite having always been weak, Zhen Yu suddenly shouted and fiercely glared at him.

Xie Yun felt his heart ache, and he placed the bowl down. “No matter which women I’ve taken a liking to, they’ve always come running with just a twitch of my finger. Zhen Yu, why do you refuse to follow me? Is it for Brother Hu?” When he mentioned Brother Hu, he chuckled. “We don’t even know whether Brother Hu is dead or alive; is it worth it for you to be like this for a dead person?”
