The hall fell into silence again while outside the door, Yu Si Yu heaved a long breath yet felt rejoice for having such an elder brother like Yu Pin Yan. If it was another household, who in the family will take so much trouble to find out the truth or insist on believing in her innocence under layers of slander. Perhaps a small sedan chair would have long been dispatched to take her out of the door with a few hundred taels. Furthermore, for the sake of saving the family reputation, she might have been drowned in the pond.

It is really a blessing to have grown up under the protection of her elder brother. Yu Si Yu couldn't help but cover her face and cry when she thought of this, regretting all the suspicions and jealousy that she had of her grandmother and elder brother in the past.

With reverence, Feng Momo handed her a handkerchief.

When the last bead finally stopped rolling, the crackling sound echoing in the hall also ceased abruptly. Only then did Yu Pin Yan look towards the terrified Yu Miao Qi and wriggled his hooked up index finger slightly, "Come over to this Marquis."

His cold menace expression and the soft coaxing tone brought an inexplicable sense of familiarity when Yu Si Yu suddenly remembered Yu Xiang was exactly like her elder brother now before she flare up, hence she couldn't help but squinted her eyes and snickered, secretly stating that Yu Miao Qi is going to be out of her luck.

Yu Miao Qi dared not disobey. She walked slowly to the front of the hall, her mind kept thinking of words of excuse when she was fanned out unexpectedly.

Yu Pin Yan has been practicing martial arts since childhood and the strength of his hand is unimaginable to ordinary people. Merely in a blink of an eye, Yu Miao Qi's cheek swelled up like the leavened steamed bun dough and a big cut split out at the corner of her mouth as blood stained her teeth red.

Covering her face and looking over in horror, she obviously did not expect Yu Pin Yan to actually strike at a weak woman like her.

While Lin Shi screamed and lunged towards her daughter but was stopped by Old Madam's walking cane who reprimanded sternly, "You will sit down for me! Yan'er will teach his younger sister a lesson and no one is allowed to interfere!"

Lin Shi was burning with anxiety and wanting to shove the cane away but was hit hard on the kneecaps by Old Madam that she immediately fell to her knees in pain.

Outside the door, Yu Si Yu's breathing became heavier as both the expression of hatred and relief appeared on her face. Inwardly she applauded the actions of her Elder Brother and Grandmother.

Merely feeling her ears buzzing, Yu Miao Qi's brain became even more muddled that she could not think at all. When she heard Yu Pin Yan commanded herself to go closer, she was clearly scared to death and could not control her limbs but to move over gradually.

Yu Pin Yan forcefully grabbed her lower jaw then speak word by word, "Yu Miao Qi, this Marquis has long known what kind of person you are. The decline of the Shen family was due to your vain attempt to seek connection with the Crown Prince and your adoptive father died unjustly because of your deceitful actions while your adoptive mother who wished to send you home was infuriated to death when you took away the silver for her medical treatment. Let's just put aside those past events for the time being. When you know Shen Yuan Qi is also in the Capital, you let others disseminate the information of him being a slave in Xue manor with the intention of ruining his career. As the saying goes, 'the grace of nurturing is greater than the grace of birth', yet you can just abandon the Shen couple who raised you and also do the same to the elder brother who grew up with you. Such a sinister and vicious heart has already reached the point of utter conscienceless. You can just splash dirty water on Xiang'er's head, yet you don't know I will never be the least bit suspicious of her. It's time for you to tear off this hypocritical face of yours to avoid disgusting the people all around you."
