After the noble lady was reborn, the whole mansion begged her for forgiveness

In fact, Qin Suling was also very surprised. She didn't understand why Mrs. Xue valued her so much.

Yet her heart was filled with gratitude.

Qin Suling took the beads and bowed deeply: "Thank you Madam Xue for your generous gift. I will remember it in my heart."

After greeting everyone around him one by one, Qin Suling stepped back and stood behind Fang Rushuang.

Mrs. Xue seemed not to be used to such a lively occasion. She stayed for a while and then left politely.

Qin Suling watched Mrs. Xue's back disappear out the door.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and Zhang was walking lightly, followed by two noble ladies.

The wife of Chief Censor, Ms. Li, and the wife of Vice Minister of War, Ms. Liu, slowly walked into the Fourth Prince's mansion.

Just at this moment, the three ladies were gathered together, laughing and talking, seemingly chatting about something interesting.

"Miss Qin, why are you the only one who came back from the banquet today? I wonder where your beautiful sister went?" Li asked with a smile, gently waving her round fan.

Qin Suling looked around after hearing this, and saw a bustling scene, but no sign of her sister Qin Suyu. She frowned slightly, as if puzzled, "Huh? My sister... hasn't come back yet? I remember she said she didn't like other people around her when she was changing clothes, so she went to the next room."

"Oh? That's a coincidence. I just changed my clothes and saw that there was no one in the room, so I thought Miss Qin had returned first."

Liu took over the conversation with a playful smile on her face.

Fang Rushuang's face was slightly gloomy at this time, and she was obviously a little dissatisfied with Qin Suyu's behavior.

She frowned slightly, with a hint of reproach in her tone, "How can you be so casual when you are out and about? If you delay important matters, won't people laugh at you?"

Qin Suling lowered her head obediently and responded softly: "Mother is right. I will remind my sister to pay attention when I get home."

Although she was a little worried, she didn't show it on her face.

"I'll go to the guest house again and find my sister."

After Qin Suling finished speaking, he turned around and left.

However, at this moment, a servant rushed in in a panic. He pointed in the direction of the guest house and shouted breathlessly: "Report... Report to all ladies, the guest house is on fire!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Qin Suling's face suddenly changed, as if struck by lightning, and she hurried to the guest house.

"My sister is still in there!"

When she rushed to the guest house, she saw that the fire had spread like a wild horse, engulfing the entire yard in a sea of ​​fire.

Qin Suling was held tightly by Jinxiu and several maids. Her face was smoked and her eyes were red, but she was still struggling desperately.

"Let me go! My sister is still in there!"

There was a hint of despair and determination in Qin Suling's voice.

Before he finished speaking, he heard a woman screaming from inside, "Help! There's a fire!"

Then, another man's deep roar was heard, "Someone come quickly! I'm still in there!"

Qin Suling's face lit up with joy. It was her sister's voice! She felt a surge of hope, but then she became confused - why did it seem like the Fourth Prince's voice was also there?

Outside the door, everyone's faces changed drastically, and they hurriedly said, "What are you waiting for? Put out the fire!"

For a moment, the Fourth Prince's residence was in chaos, and the servants all took action, fetching water, moving things, and putting out the fire...

Fortunately, the house was located in a corner and the fire had not yet spread there completely.

Soon after, the servants protected the two men and rushed out of the sea of ​​fire.

However, when they appeared, the whole place fell silent.

Qin Suyu and the Fourth Prince were seen in ragged clothes, their faces covered in smoke and dust, but their eyes were shining with relief at having survived the calamity.

Qin Suling rushed forward.

"what!"

A cry of surprise echoed in the empty courtyard.

As if attracted by a magnet, everyone's eyes were all cast towards the Fourth Prince and Qin Suyu.

Their originally gorgeous outer clothes had disappeared without a trace, and their inner clothes were licked by the flames and were tattered and in a mess.

The white skin on Shen Yuwei's chest that was originally covered by clothes was now exposed, and the bruises on her chest were even more conspicuous, like a streak of blood in the snow, stinging everyone's eyes.

Qin Suyu felt the cutting gazes from all around her and her heart was in a state of panic. She instinctively pressed her body close to the Fourth Prince, as if trying to find a little shelter.

Her hands tightly grasped his collar as if she was grabbing a life-saving straw, and her body trembled slightly in the breeze like a tottering fallen leaf.

The Fourth Prince looked at Qin Suyu's frightened eyes. He instinctively stretched out his arms and held her tightly in his arms, as if to shield her from all the wind and rain.

The intimacy between the two was obvious at this moment, as if an invisible barrier isolated them from the outside world.

Qin Suling was standing not far away. Her steps were a little unsteady. She took several steps back, and her voice trembled like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

"Your Highness? You, you guys..."

Her voice was filled with surprise and confusion.

The Fourth Prince came to his senses and tried to push Qin Suyu away, but she was like a stubborn kitten and held his arms tightly.

Qin Suyu took the opportunity to look at Qin Suling provocatively, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

Then, she covered her abdomen with a look of pain, and her delicate body trembled even more violently in the Fourth Prince's arms, "Your Highness, my stomach hurts so much..."

When the Fourth Prince heard this, he immediately panicked.

He held Qin Suyu tightly, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Qin Suling was secretly delighted when he saw this.

However, there was a hint of sadness on her face, as if she felt sorry for the relationship between the Fourth Prince and Qin Suyu.

She questioned, "Sister Yu'er, even though you are engaged to the Fourth Prince, you cannot do such a shameful thing!"

Although her voice was low, it was full of power and everyone present could hear it clearly.

As soon as Qin Suling finished speaking, the atmosphere around them suddenly became tense.

The eyes of several ladies and staff members shuttled back and forth between the Fourth Prince and Qin Suyu, their eyes full of complexity and scrutiny.

What Emperor Dongyue hates most is this kind of chaotic relationship between men and women. The Fourth Prince is afraid that he will lose the emperor's favor because of this.

The Fourth Prince felt like a thorn in his back from the scrutiny from those around him. He took a deep breath and tried to remain calm.

He gazed at Qin Suyu tenderly, his tone full of sincerity, "Sister Yu'er, I am sincere to you."

He held her hand tightly, as if to convey his feelings to her, "I was impulsive in this matter. I am deeply sorry for you."

Qin Suyu stood in the hall, feeling as if her heart was covered by frost and was filled with desolation.

Her face, which was once as rosy as jade, now showed a hint of shame, and the light in her eyes seemed to be swept away by the autumn wind, dimming.

She turned her head away silently, as if trying to escape from all the embarrassment.
