Chapter 197 I Won’t Let You Lose the Bet (Part )

Su Liuyue had heard about the situation of the Zhong family from Router before coming here.

She raised her eyes to glance at Zhou Yunke and did not refuse him again, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Your Highness."

After the two got on Zhou Yunke's carriage, Zhou Yunke saw Su Liuyue just looking out the window without saying anything, her face slightly gloomy. He quickly thought of the reason and asked softly, "Do you sympathize with Miss Zhong?"

Su Liuyue was stunned for a moment, and finally turned to look at Zhou Yunke and nodded, "Yes, a little bit, although the Zhong family... made the wrong choice, it was not Miss Zhong herself who made the choice, so Miss Zhong would not end up like this.

Miss Zhong once said that she wanted to see with her own eyes whether the court of Daqing was really better than that of Dayan, and whether it could really bring peace and prosperity to the people.

Maybe at the beginning, she didn’t necessarily agree with the Zhong family’s choice.”

However, living in this era where family is more important than the individual, her fate is inevitably tied to her family.

The building collapsed, and she, as a stake in it, could not avoid it.

Zhou Yunke looked at her thoughtfully, and suddenly said, "Don't worry, I won't let you end up like Miss Zhong."

Su Liuyue was slightly stunned, and looked at him in confusion, "Why are you suddenly saying this?"

Although her future fate was tied to him, she was not worried about it.

"I just suddenly wanted to say it."

Zhou Yunke raised his lips slightly, "Just consider this as my promise to you, Liu Yue, I won't let you lose the bet."

Su Liuyue couldn't help but stare at the man in front of her. Only then did she realize that he was saying this very seriously.

After a while, she curled her lips and turned to look out the window, "Your Highness, please rest assured. I am not Miss Zhong. Even if Your Highness loses, I will not let myself end up like that."

She does not have the idea of ​​the ancients that they should live and die together with their family.

Even after being poured a bucket of cold water, Zhou Yunke was not discouraged and just smiled faintly.

"and……"

The woman opposite suddenly turned her head back and said seriously: "Since Your Highness and I are husband and wife in the future, I will do my best to prevent Your Highness from ending up losing."

Zhou Yunke raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a while, he smiled helplessly.

Most women would be moved at least to the extent that they feel shy when hearing a man's promise to them.

She, on the other hand, looked as if she would stand by him from now on.

However, her response made him more excited than any other response.

His palms couldn't help but feel slightly warm, and it felt like a bunch of weeds had grown in his heart, making it itchy and unbearable. He couldn't help but want to touch the person opposite him.

However, at this moment, the carriage stopped.

We arrived at the home of the first victim, Mrs. Mei.

Madam Mei died in her own bedroom. Just as Su Liuyue expected, the crime scene had already been cleaned up. When one walked in, there was no sign that someone had died there.

Madam Mei's husband did not go to the bun shop today. He followed Su Liuyue with a look of hidden impatience on his face. He gave perfunctory answers to whatever Su Liuyue asked.

Looking at his appearance, let alone being sad, he didn't even have the slightest desire to find the murderer who killed his wife.

Su Liuyue looked at him with some disgust, and finally asked him a question, "Before Madam Mei was murdered, were there any books around her?"

"Book?"

The man said sarcastically, "The words that woman can recognize can be counted on ten fingers. What kind of books can she read? She can't even come up with anything new to say when arguing with me. She's really boring!"

Su Liuyue frowned and said in a cold voice: "She is your wife after all, you..." Su Liuyue's words stimulated the man at once, and the man suddenly said excitedly: "That woman is not my wife at all! She even wanted to drag me to see the official before! Oh, every time I beat her, she deserved it! Even if I beat her to death, she deserved it..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a heart-stirring gaze falling on him. The man turned his head subconsciously and saw the tall man who had been following the woman looking at him coldly. That look seemed to be able to cut his bones and flesh.

He suddenly stiffened all over, swallowed secretly, and dared not say anything more.

Su Liuyue glanced at the coward indifferently, too lazy to say anything to him. She said "let's go" to Zhou Yunke and walked towards the door.

Next, there was not much she could do. She had to wait and see what the routers found.

Zhou Yunke seemed to be very free today. After leaving Madam Mei's house, he had no intention of leaving. He looked at Su Liuyue and smiled faintly, "Where are you going next?"

Su Liuyue looked at him in some confusion.

Why didn’t I notice this guy was so clingy before?
"Let's go to Man Yifang. They suddenly found out about your relationship with me yesterday, and they're probably still confused."

She had originally planned to visit Man Yifang today.

Zhou Yunke immediately said, "Okay, let's go."

Seeing Su Liuyue couldn't help looking at him again, he smiled faintly, "I'll send you to Manyifang, and then I'll leave."

He actually has a lot of things to do today, and not just today, he is busy almost every day.

But the woman in front of him obviously had no feelings for him. Although he was always patient, sometimes he couldn't help but wonder if he hadn't done enough.
Although Su Liuyue really wanted to tell him that he didn't need to send her off specially, but thinking about their current relationship, she didn't say much in the end.

The carriage soon arrived at Man Yifang. Seeing that there was a long queue at Man Yifang's place as usual, Su Liuyue asked the carriage to stop a little further away from Man Yifang. After saying goodbye to Zhou Yunke, she got off the carriage.

Zhou Yunke looked at her back for a while, suppressed the depression in his heart, and said calmly: "Return to the palace."

On the other side, Su Liuyue was walking towards Man Yifang. However, before she reached the door, she saw a spacious and luxurious carriage suddenly stopped in front of Man Yifang's door. Two figures dressed in brocade and noble looked walked out of the carriage, one man and one woman, both looked very young.

As soon as the man got off the carriage and stood still, he suddenly raised his hand and said through gritted teeth: "Tear this down for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the dozen or so tall and strong men standing behind him immediately responded and walked towards Man Yifang aggressively.

The crowd queuing in front of Manyifang's door was immediately frightened, and many of them hurried away in fear.

Su Liuyue's heart suddenly sank. She quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the group of men. She frowned and said, "What do you want to do? Who gave you the right to dispose of other people's shops at will?"

Seeing him from the front, Su Liuyue realized that the young man was very fair and handsome, but his expression was indescribably arrogant. Seeing Su Liuyue suddenly appear, he was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Are you the Su Liuyue? The owner of this store? I am the son of Marquis Wenyuan! What dirty things did your store do? I don't want to go into details, tear it down!"

Marquis Wenyuan?
Su Liuyue immediately remembered that Marquis Wenyuan was the title of the Chen family, the maiden family of the current queen!
No wonder she felt that the woman in gorgeous clothes looked familiar just now. Wasn’t that the Princess Zhenning whom she had seen in front of Zhou Yunke’s military camp before!
She understood something at once, and seeing that the group of men were about to approach again, she said in a deep voice: "Stop! Daqing has its own laws. Even if the emperor comes, he must act according to the law! Besides, you can't give me a reason to treat me like this!"

Seeing that the woman was not giving in, Chen Youyu gritted his teeth and said, "I ate the cakes I bought from you yesterday and got an upset stomach. Is that enough of an excuse? Get out of here! Otherwise, I'll beat you up too!"

Su Liuyue still stood there fearlessly, sneering: "This is really a rare thing. Since Manyifang reopened, there has never been a case of eating someone else's stomach getting sick! There are many villains who come to blackmail you! Since Master Chen said that you got a stomachache after eating the cakes I bought yesterday, then please tell me in detail, Master, when, where, and under what circumstances did you eat our cakes? At the same time, did you eat anything else besides our cakes!"

This series of questions immediately stunned Chen Youyu.

He had never eaten any cakes from her house! He just wanted to find an excuse to cause trouble and vent his anger. Even if he made it up temporarily, how could he make up so many things!

His face suddenly became extremely ugly. "You want me to say something? Besides, you are so arrogant. Just know that your cakes have never made anyone sick!"

Su Liuyue said with a half-smile: "It's my own store, could it be that the prince knows more about it than I do? If the prince doesn't believe it, no one can stop him from checking it out thoroughly."

Who wants to spend time looking up such boring stuff!

Does she think he is a fool?

Chen Youyu was so angry that his throat choked, "You..."

At this moment, a female voice with a hint of coldness suddenly came from the side, "I also ate the cakes from Miss Su San's house yesterday, and I bought every kind of cake, but nothing happened. I'm afraid that Master Chen made a mistake. Your stomach suddenly became unwell because of other reasons!"
