His Rui

The face of the girl was uncovered in front of everyone.

"Li Na…"

Li Rong shouted and ran towards her unconscious daughter.

Yi Jie breathed deeply and sharply.

She had been relieved when she had seen her daughter standing in front of her, safe and sound. However, she also didn't want any girl of her clan to be the girl in the maid's hands at this moment. She had wished that the Eunuch had mistaken and the girl was someone else.

But it turned out that what the Eunuch was saying was the truth.

The girl was from their Clan in the end.

It was Li Na.

As she looked at the crying Li Rong in despair, she suddenly remembered just how she had felt when she had seen Li Rui in the same state four years ago.

She could understand what Li Rong was feeling, as a mother, for Li Na.

Fortunately, Lord Xi married Li Rui and her daughter but what would become of Li Na who was found with a Eunuch.

She stepped forward and held Li Rong's shoulders and tried to comfort her.

"Yi Jie, my daughter…Li Na, how did this happen? She was just in front of my eyes an hour ago."

At this moment, Li Na was now slowly starting to gain consciousness. Her eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyes with a frown.

Confusion flashed through her eyes when she saw that her mother was crying.

"Mother…"

She whispered and tried to get up, however the next moment her legs suddenly gave up.

"Ah…"

She clutched her stomach feeling a strange and a faint ache in her lower part.

Other women noticed her actions and looked at her dress. Their eyes widened when they saw the blood on the lower part of her dress and they looked away as if they saw nothing.

However, it was not only them who had seen this.

Li Rong and Yi Jie also saw the blood and looked at each other with pale faces.

Li Rong looked at her daughter with red eyes.

Slap

A loud sound of the slap echoed in Lianxin hall and Li Na fell to the ground.

After slapping her daughter, Li Rong covered her mouth while she cried and sobbed in despair. Even Yi Jie's tears were starting to fall out of her eyes as she tried to comfort Li Rong.

"Yi Jie…she didn't leave us capable of showing our faces to others. Such a shameless daughter I have birthed."

Yi Jie frowned and she also noticed her husband's frowning at Li Rong's words.

Every parent knew the character of their child and since the three households have lived together since the start, she and her husband were very sure that the girls of their clan were not characterless to do things like this.

Even when four years ago, she and her husband had found Li Rui inside a room with Xi Ying, they have not questioned Li Rui even once.

They didn't even force her to tell anything fearing that she would not be able to talk about it.

They trusted their daughter. In their eyes, it was she who was the victim no matter what the investigation results had said.

So Li Rong should also not blame Li Na for everything just like this in front of everyone without even hearing the story of her side. By doing this, she was just lowering the image of Li Na even more.

On the other hand, Li Na was still confused about everything.  Holding her badly aching cheek, she tried to comprehend what was going on.

She glanced at her dress that was no longer the same. Then her eyes moved across the hall only to see the large crowd looking at her with different expressions on their faces.

Disgust, mockery, sneers, whispers…she could see and hear everything.

With every passing second, her face was starting to get paler and her expression became one of that horrified when she saw a young Eunuch lying beside her.

He was beaten very badly and he was glancing at her in confusion with his dizzy eyes.

Standing behind the maids, An Si was very satisfied with what he was seeing. He looked at the beaten eunuch condescendingly.

The young Eunuch had entered the Imperial Palace with him but he didn't know why the nanny seemed to favor him more and hence the Eunuch would always try to topple over him and humiliate him in front of others.

So today when he got the chance, he finally took his revenge from the stinky eunuch.

An Si was feeling very satisfied.

On the other hand, the pale-faced Li Na clutched her dress where she saw the droplets of blood and looked behind herself to see her opened room. She could clearly see the mess inside her room.

Li Na was a stupid person like Li Caihong. She could easily connect the dots and comprehend what exactly was happening and why so many people were looking at her like that?

"How…How did I reach here?"

She murmured in confusion not being able to remember anything.

She raised her head and her eyes suddenly caught the most attractive couple standing amidst others.

There stood the man she had planned everything for…he was not looking at her at this moment.

'Yes, I was following Lord Xi…then ...then after that I…why can't I remember anything?'

Li Na clutched her head as she stared at Xi Ying looking at Li Rui without moving his eyes away. Her mind was a mess and she couldn't think of what she should do at this moment.

Standing a few steps away from her sister, Li Caihong's condition was not much better than her sister. Her face was equally pale as she looked at her lost sister.

Since childhood, she had walked down the path shown by her elder sister so when at this moment Li Caihong saw her sister like this; she felt something breaking inside her heart.

She saw her sister looking in Li Rui's direction and she suddenly understood everything…or that's what she thought.

Her eyes were red as she looked at Li Rui and shouted like a shrew.

"Li Rui, you s**t, I'll not leave you today. It is you who had made elder sister like this."

Saying this, she pounced on Li Rui with her long nails stretching out to scratch Li Rui's beautiful face.
