Chapter 6 You Won't Be Spared

Shen Yun's clothes were already dry.

He stood tall and graceful, with sharp brows and a handsome face. At this moment, he glared at her, his eyes blazing as if he wanted to devour her.

Su Xiaoqi realized that Shen Yun might have misunderstood something and quickly explained:

"I, I didn't, it wasn't me, I was helping him..."

The situation was rather complicated.

As she was organizing her thoughts, Shen Yun's sharp, cold gaze made her flustered and unsure of what to say.

Especially when Shen Erdan, upon seeing Shen Yun, suddenly pushed Su Xiaoqi away and threw himself into his arms, crying "wuwu."

Shen Yun pacified Shen Erdan, pulled him behind him, glared at Su Xiaoqi, and sternly questioned:

"I don't know how you were saved, but you should know Erdan is just a child. What did he do to you that you wouldn't let even him go?"

Su Xiaoqi felt depressed:

"I, I was saved, no, alas, I didn't, I didn't intend to harm him.

He just fell off the cliff, and I pulled him up.

Shen Erdan, hurry up and tell your elder brother..."

Su Xiaoqi's eyes reddened from being wrongly accused.

She tried to explain, but Shen Yun showed no intention of believing her.

His clear, bright eyes released a chilling light.

"You didn't, I saw it with my own eyes, you were about to push him off the cliff.

Do you know that my mother couldn't bear to see you drowned, so she specifically asked Erdan to come with me to look for you, yet you treated him like this...

And you asked him to tell me, what was your intention?

You clearly knew he couldn't speak right now." Shen Yun accused Su Xiaoqi, each word a piercing blow.

Su Xiaoqi lowered her head, speechless for a moment.

Seeing her like this, Shen Yun grew even angrier, saying she had done bad deeds repeatedly and deserved to be handed over to the authorities.

Su Xiaoqi had a stomach full of rebuttals, but the other party simply wouldn't listen.

She bit her lip tightly, silently cursing in her heart:

"Shen Yun, you are such a turtle and a bastard.

You don't ask anything, you don't listen to any explanations, you just blame me for harming others."

What about seeing is believing? He was simply blind. She was clearly saving someone, how could she have harmed anyone?

Shen Yun was pondering how to deal with Su Xiaoqi when he suddenly heard her thoughts.

She said she didn't push Erdan down, and even saved him?

No, why should he believe her? This must be another of her schemes and tricks.

Shen Yun, holding Shen Erdan's hand with one and pulling her with the other, said he was taking her to the officials.

"I don't want to, I don't want to see officials." With the character for 'official' meaning two mouths, Su Xiaoqi had no confidence in the officials of this era.

"If you don't want to see officials, then you can go back where you came from." Shen Yun glanced at her sideways, his gaze cold.

He was going to divorce her!

Su Xiaoqi first shook her head, then nodded.

It would be good if she were divorced, then she would be free.

However, she didn't want to return to the Su family; it wasn't her home.

After thinking for a moment, a flash of inspiration struck her, and she said:

"I just felt Shen Erdan's pulse, he is poisoned, which is why he temporarily cannot speak.

I have a way to cure him, and when he can speak again, you will know if I harmed him or not."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yun raised an eyebrow, and a flicker of hesitation appeared on his handsome face.

If Erdan could speak again, it would naturally be a great thing.

But this woman in front of him had a history of misconduct; should he trust her?

As he hesitated, Shen Erdan tugged at his sleeve, his eyes filled with longing to speak.

"Can you really cure him?" Shen Yun wavered, patting Shen Erdan's shoulder.

If he could make him speak again, he might give her another chance. This time, he would keep a close eye on her himself, not allowing her any opportunity to do evil.

Su Xiaoqi thought to herself that Shen Erdan had clearly been drugged to silence, and as long as the right medicine was administered, curing him would not be a problem.

She nodded.

Shen Yun's expression remained unchanged, but he was inwardly astonished.

He could truly hear her speak, no, he could hear her thoughts.

Concealing his surprise, Shen Yun agreed to let her treat Erdan's muteness.

After all, he could know her thoughts now, so he wasn't afraid of her causing any trouble.

Su Xiaoqi walked with them.

She pondered the changes that had occurred in this short day.

From time to time, she lowered her head to examine the grass she stepped on, and if she saw any important herbs, she would pull them up and put them away.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion, and a rabbit rolled down the hillside directly towards them, then hit a large rock in front of her and died.

"What... waiting for a rabbit by a stump!" Su Xiaoqi stared blankly at the rabbit that had delivered itself to her.

When did her jinx attribute change?
