The two men left the warehouse and returned to the bright hall of Zhenxing Marquis Mansion.

Lu Yundi called the servants and arranged for them to escort Chu Qirui out. Although Chu Qirui was anxious, he also knew that he could not be impatient at this moment, otherwise it would only backfire.

In the guest room of the Chongren Marquis Mansion, Chu Qirui sat quietly, thinking over and over again about Lu Yundi's words in his mind.

……

"Oh, what happened to Jiang Yuqi?" Lu Yundi asked pretending to be ignorant.

Xiang Zhu pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and said, "Madam, this morning she brought sobering soup to Young Marquis Chu, and a while later she went to get the bowl, but it was thrown out by Young Marquis Chu's guards."

Lu Yundi frowned slightly, with a hint of barely perceptible worry in her eyes. She sighed softly and said slowly, "This child always doesn't know the rules."

Jiang Yuqi had just returned from outside, her face was slightly pale, and tears were hanging in the corners of her eyes. When she saw Lu Yundi, she lowered her head hastily, trying to hide her loss of composure.

"Yuqi, come here." Lu Yundi's tone was gentle, but with a majesty that could not be refused.

Jiang Yuqi hesitated for a moment, but still walked in front of Lu Yundi. Lu Yundi gently patted her shoulder, his eyes full of concern: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Jiang Yuqi bit her lip and said in a trembling voice, "Young Marquis Chu got drunk in the tavern last night. This morning I heard that he was still not awake, so I made some hangover soup and sent it to him. However, his guards wouldn't let me in and drove me out..."

At this point, Jiang Yuqi's tears welled up again. She bit her lips tightly, trying hard not to cry out loud.

A complex emotion flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She sighed softly, handed Jiang Yuqi a clean handkerchief, and said softly, "Yuqi, I know you feel bad, but love is always full of twists and turns. If you run over rashly like this, it will only embarrass others even more."

Jiang Yuqi took the handkerchief and wiped her tears, but she still choked up and said, "But, I... I'm worried about him. He's alone there, and I feel..."

"You have good intentions, I know that." Lu Yundi comforted softly, then turned to Xiang Zhu and said, "Xiang Zhu, go get ready, I need to go to the Chongren Marquis's Mansion."

Xiang Zhu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Yes, ma'am."

Jiang Yuqi raised her head and looked at Lu Yundi in surprise: "Mother, are you going to see him?"

Lu Yundi smiled slightly and said, "Yes, Yuqi, just wait here. I will help you talk about this matter."

A hint of gratitude flashed in Jiang Yuqi's eyes. She nodded and said no more.

......

Chu Qirui followed Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi to Rong Xitang to find Jiang Yuqi alone.

Jiang Yuqi was crying in front of her mother, Yu, saying that she was thrown out by Chu Qirui's guards.

Jiang Yuqi sobbed, tears rolling down her cheeks. She looked up at her mother, Yu, with a look of grievance and helplessness in her eyes: "Mother, Qi Rui...he actually asked his guards to throw me out of the mansion."

Yu's face suddenly turned livid. She sat down slowly and waved her hand to signal the servants to leave, leaving only her and Jiang Yuqi and her daughter. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then slowly said, "Yuqi, tell mother what happened?"

Seeing her mother so serious, Jiang Yuqi felt even more wronged, so she told Yu everything that had happened. After hearing this, Yu frowned, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door, followed by the voices of Chu Qirui, Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi. The three entered Rong Xi Tang and were stunned when they saw Jiang Yuqi crying.

Chu Qirui's heart was filled with guilt. He walked quickly to Jiang Yuqi and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't speak. Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi were also surprised by this situation. They didn't know what happened.

Yu looked at Chu Qirui coldly and said sternly, "Qirui, do you know how big a mistake you have made? Yuqi is your wife-to-be, and you actually let the guards throw her out of the house. How shameful!"

Chu Qirui's face turned pale, he lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Yu. Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi also felt embarrassed, they didn't know how to resolve this embarrassment.

After a moment of silence, Chu Qirui finally mustered up the courage. He looked at Jiang Yuqi and said sincerely, "Yuqi, I feel deeply sorry for what happened last night. I am willing to take full responsibility. Please forgive me."

Jiang Yuqi looked at Chu Qirui, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes. Although she was angry at Chu Qirui's behavior, she also knew that this was not Chu Qirui's intention. She took a deep breath and said slowly: "Qirui, I don't take what happened last night to heart. As long as you don't make similar mistakes in the future, I am willing to forgive you."

Chu Qirui felt a warm current in his heart when he heard Jiang Yuqi's tolerance. He held Jiang Yuqi's hands tightly, his eyes full of gratitude: "Yuqi, I will never let you get hurt again."

Seeing this, Yu's anger gradually dissipated.

She sighed softly and said to Chu Qirui: "Qirui, since Yuqi has forgiven you, I hope you can prove your sincerity with practical actions."

Chu Qirui nodded, and turned to Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi: "Brother Jiang, Madam Lu, I lost my temper last night after drinking, and I feel deeply guilty. In order to make up for my mistake, I am willing to be a volunteer in Zhenxing Marquis Mansion for a month to make up for the harm I have done to Yuqi."

Jiang Jilian and Lu Yundi looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Chu Qirui's move obviously exceeded their expectations. Jiang Jilian smiled and said, "Since Qirui is so sincere, we will not pursue it. But I hope you can remember the lesson this time and don't make the same mistake again."

Chu Qirui nodded seriously: "Brother Jiang, don't worry, I will definitely keep it in mind."

Jiang Yuqi looked at Chu Qirui, and although there was a trace of forgiveness in her eyes, the sadness could not be wiped away. She gently withdrew her hand, turned and walked to the window beside her, looking at the mottled raindrops outside the window, with a myriad of feelings in her heart.

"Yuqi, listen to me." Chu Qirui's voice was gentle and sincere. He walked carefully to Jiang Yuqi and wanted to explain again.

Jiang Yuqi didn't look back, but said calmly: "Qi Rui, I know you are not a heartless person, but I need time to slowly digest what happened last night."

Chu Qirui looked indifferent and said nothing, but he had already realized something in his heart - Lu Yundi and Jiang Jilian did not have the same intentions.

He had no intention of paying attention to Jiang Yuqi's pitiful expression, nor did he fix his gaze on the uneasy Jiang Jilian.

Chu Qirui looked solemn and walked away calmly, leaving the room in silence.

Chu Qirui walked calmly, like a gust of cold wind, taking away the warmth in the house. His back as he left looked lonely and resolute, as if silently declaring his position.
