Chapter 3 — This little sister plotted to harm me, but I didn't expect that this life would lead me to a dead end

Finally, the two families discussed solutions together. To Lien Nhuy proactively stood up and said that he was willing to fulfill it for me and Co Truong Phong. All over the capital, it was said that the eldest lady of the To palace was shameless, while the second lady was tolerant and generous. Now that I think about it, she basically didn't want to marry Co Truong Phong. Although Co Truong Phong has some talent, he comes from a cold family and his official position is only 6th grade. How can it compare with Ninh Vuong's powerful power? I forced those thoughts down and continued to stare at the movement in the foggy room. Someone asked in a low voice: "Where is the eldest lady of the To palace? Aren't we talking about changing clothes?" Only then did To Lien Nhuy react. She suppressed her surprise and looked like she was about to cry.

"Brother Truong Phong, why are you here? Where is sister? I... I'm really worried about her..."

Co Truong Phong sat up from the bed. He glanced at To Lien Nhuy, his expression dark and unfathomable.

“I asked you, you said you were worried about your sister, that's why you brought someone to find her.”

To Lien Nhuy nodded.

“How do you know she is in this mist room?”

To Lien Nhuy paused for a moment: "Earlier, sister said her clothes were wet and she wanted to go to the back room to change. I asked the servants, they said she was going this way."

“Which subhuman?”

To Lien Nhuy's face immediately stiffened. Only then did Ninh Vuong Phi speak, her tone was leisurely, neither too fast nor too slow: "Young Master Gu, your question is very strange. The second lady of the To palace cares about you, brought us to take a look, is there anything wrong? On the contrary, it's you, why are you here?"

“Your Majesty forgives the crime.” Co Truong Phong bowed: "My alcohol tolerance is not good. I wanted to go to the back to find a quiet place to rest for a while. I didn't expect to offend you. I'm really sorry."

These words were said without any remorse. This person, Co Truong Phong, has no other skills, but pretending to be a fool is first-class. But right now his cooperation is truly what we need. Because as long as he doesn't say there's someone else in the room. Then this matter will have nothing to do with me anymore. To Lien Nhuy began to panic.

"So where is your sister? Her dress got wet and she said she wanted to change her clothes, so where is she?"

I stood up from the flower cluster. Brushing off the mud and dirt on her skirt, she strode back. Good sister, don't cry anymore, you're back.

“Sister, are you looking for me?”

My voice came from behind the crowd. Everyone turned their heads to look back. To Lien Nhuy's face immediately turned pale. What a beautiful color, even whiter than pear blossoms in spring.

“Sister… why are you outside?”

I passed through the crowd of female relatives, step by step walking towards her.

"I went to change clothes, but half way there I discovered that the perfume bag was dropped in the garden, so I went back to look for it."

“Then I accidentally twisted my leg in the flower garden, so I sat down next to the flower bush for a while.”

"What's going on? Nhi Nhi, you seem to be very disappointed?"

To Lien Nhuy quickly adjusted her expression, her eyes were red, showing a look of extreme self-pity.

"Sister, how can you say that to me? I was worried about you, afraid something would happen to you, that's why I invited the Princess. come here…”

“Worry about me? You led so many people into the room, shouting 'how could you do such a thing', so may I ask what I did?"

She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word. Behind him, someone began to talk in low voices.

“This is really interesting, older sister is outside, younger sister leads someone into the room…”

"The second lady named To said those words as soon as she entered the door, as if she already knew what was going on inside."

“Didn't Mr. Gu say he should rest when he's drunk? This room was originally meant for guests to rest, so there's nothing to be surprised about."

“Be quiet for a moment, the Princess is still here.”

The whispers went into To Lien Nhuy's ears. Her face became more and more pale.

“Okay okay.”
