Chapter 371 - How heartless you are once you've fallen out of love (2)

”I ruined her?” Qian Yingchen appeared as if he had heard a joke. ”Shouldn't it be the other way around? Didn't she tell you what had happened? Back then, in Xu Province...”

Smiling, Ji Man asked, ”Sir Qian, back in Xu Province, when you woke up, were you in your room or Miss Zhu's room?”

Qian Yingchen froze in surprise for a moment. He hadn't tried to recollect that matter until now. After doing his best to remember, he remembered that back then... he had woken up in her room.

”Miss Zhu has been telling people that she fell for your looks, so she crept into your room in the middle of the night.” Ji Man pursed her lips and said, ”If she had really done that, why would you wake up in her room?”

Qian Yingchen hadn't recovered enough to respond. Ji Man smiled and saluted him with her hands. ”Anyways, once the rice from Ji Store has been transported to the warehouse, it'll be offered as tribute. When the time comes, Sir Qian, please don't refuse to cooperate with me.”

She could only help up to this point. She had said everything that she should. If Qian Yingchen wasn't an idiot, he would definitely investigate the matter before continuing to blame Zhu Yurun.

She really was a small, plump idiot. The child had already been lost because of him, but she didn't feel any enmity towards him and even smiled when she saw him. When she had time, she would definitely indoctrinate her that debts had to be paid back.

The construction for the road to Zhangjun was actually going much faster than she had antic.i.p.ated.

Ji Man went to report that she had left the marquis's household to Zhangjun Prince without mentioning Haohao's matter. She only mentioned that because of Wen Wan's actions, the heir had been sent into the palace, so there was naturally no reason for her to stay in the marquis's household as a teacher.

”Wen Wan?” Zhangjun Prince was sitting behind a curtain. He slightly sighed and said, ”I had originally though she would be my trump card. Not only did she lose her effectiveness halfway through, she also ruined my plans.”

Shen Youqing was sitting next to him. Hearing these words, she slightly pursed her lips and said, ”This consort hasn't been in touch with her for a while and doesn't know why she would get mixed up with Kangyuan Junzhu.”

”The marquis said he would send her to Wen Province. This one isn't sure how he'll deal with her in the end.” Ji Man lowered her eyes and said, ”Without caring for His Highness's position, she tried to frame me several times when this one was in the marquis's estate. This one thinks that it would better to get rid of this type of person sooner rather than later.”

Shen Youqing slightly furrowed her brow and glanced at Zhangjun Prince.

Zhao Zhe paused for a moment before saying, ”I'm fine with getting rid of her, but Yuxuan is probably still protecting her.”

”If the marquis continues to protect her even after this incident, then this one has nothing to say.” Ji Man pursed her lips and said, ”This one has already given the marquis a choice. Either she dies or this one will have to choose between peris.h.i.+ng or fleeing.”

Shen Youqing didn't understand the meaning of Ji Man's words and was slightly puzzled.

Next to her, Zhao Zhe said, ”Qing-er, go out and check if the kitchen servants have finished preparing the food.”
