Chapter 9: Testing

"Fifth brother just accompanied me to the jade shop and picked out a hosta. I think this hosta is more suitable for you, so I brought it over!" Jin Yun brought the hosta in front of Zhao Xinghui and said with a smile: "Xinghui

, let me put it on for you!"

The moment he saw the hosta, Zhao Xinghui's pupils shrank.

She quickly reached out her hand and blocked the hosta.

"Take it away, I don't want your stuff!"

Jin Yun saw her expressions one by one.

She originally just wanted to test Zhao Xinghui's face when she saw Zhao Xinghui's unfriendly expression, but she didn't expect her reaction to be so big!

She rolled her eyes and asked knowingly: "Xinghui, don't you like this hairpin? Fifth brother said, you helped me choose the jade bracelet on my mother's wrist. I see that you have a good eye for choosing jade jewelry.

, I thought you would study it deeply because you like it!"

"I just choose what I want to study or not."

Hearing this, Jin Yun's lips curled up.

The person who accompanied Zhao Dui to buy a jade bracelet was indeed her!

Zhao Xinghui saw her smiling a little weirdly and frowned slightly.

"You...why are you laughing?"

"It seems I misunderstood. Since you don't like the hosta, I'll take it away."

With that said, Jin Yun waved his hand, took the hosta and walked out.

Just as Zhao Xinghui breathed a sigh of relief, he saw her footsteps pause and turned to look at the slightly raised quilt stacked beside her.

"Your body hasn't recovered yet, so don't be greedy!"

Jin Yun smiled slightly, said a few words, turned around and left the room.

Zhao Xinghui's face darkened, he turned to glare at Xiaocui and shouted angrily: "How did you guard the door and let her in?"

"Miss, I'm sorry. I didn't expect her to come. I didn't... didn't react."

"Useless thing! If there is a next time, I will ask Fifth Brother to buy you!"

When Zhao Dui was mentioned, Zhao Xinghui's expression became even darker.

This woman has only been back for a few days. First she won over my mother, and now even my fifth brother has been won over by her.

She asked why Fifth Brother didn't come to bring her breakfast today.

It turned out that he was busy taking this woman to a jade shop to pick out jewelry!



As soon as Zhao Dui came back, he went to Zhao Li's house to hand in an errand.

After Zhao Li sent him away, she got up and went to the east courtyard.

Just as Jin Yun was about to go find her, as soon as he opened the door, he saw her walking slowly towards her and stepped forward to greet her with a smile.

"Mom, I was just going to find you, why did you come here on your own?"

"It's the same if you come to me or if I come to you, it doesn't matter!" Zhao Li smiled and waved her hand: "I just went to the jade shop, did you pick anything?"

"Well, I picked a hosta."

Jin Yun raised his hand and touched the hosta.

Zhao Li took a look and nodded with a smile.

"Not bad, it looks good and matches your temperament. But I've already gone there, why don't you pick a few more?"

"I don't like this kind of thing. It's a waste of money to buy it."

While the two were talking, Jin Yun had already supported Zhao Li and walked into her room.

The main house is right next to Jinyun's room.

Xiaocui saw all this.

She turned back to Zhao Xinghui and said hesitantly: "Miss, Madam is here..."

Before Xiaocui could finish her words, Zhao Xinghui quickly lay down and pretended to be weak.

Xiaocui frowned and continued: "Madam, she...she went to Miss Jinyun's room."

"What?" Zhao Xinghui sat up in shock: "Mother came to the east courtyard, but she didn't come to see me?"

Although Xiaocui didn't want to admit it, it was indeed the case.

She nodded slightly, but before she could speak, Zhao Xing kicked her in the abdomen.

"Little bitch, why are you nodding? Do you think that I have fallen out of favor and want to serve that bitch?"

"No, I don't mean this."

Xiaocui was kicked so hard that she fell to the ground.

Seeing that Zhao Xing had misunderstood, she quickly knelt down and shook her head.

Zhao Xinghui snorted coldly and turned to look in the direction of the door.

"Go over and listen and see what they are talking about?"

"Miss, is this...isn't this bad?"

"Why, your heart has already turned towards her before she has even passed by?"

Zhao Xing gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Cui with a gloomy expression.

Xiao Cui trembled with fright and quickly stood up.

"Slave, go now!"



The door to the next room is closed.

Jin Yun put a talisman on the door to prevent eavesdropping.

Mrs. Zhao Li came and sat down at the wooden table, and Xiao Tao poured her a cup of tea.

Jin Yun came to the opposite side of her and just sat down when he heard her ask: "Xiao Liu, did you find anything when you went to the jade shop today?"

"There is nothing wrong with the jewelry in the jade shop. Only the jade bracelet that Fifth Brother gave you has something wrong with it. I suspect that it was caused by someone in the mansion."

Jin Yun looked at Zhao Li, but did not say directly that the matter was related to Zhao Xinghui.

Just now she had been hesitating whether to tell Zhao Li about this.

After all, she was the one who brought Zhao Xinghui up. If she knew that it was Zhao Xinghui who wanted to harm her, she would be devastated.

But if he didn't tell her, she would have no defense against Zhao Xinghui.

If Zhao Xing attacks her again, she won't be able to guard against him.

So she planned to see Zhao Li's reaction first before making any plans.

"People from the mansion? You want to talk about Lao Wu!" Zhao Li shook her head: "Impossible! I watched Lao Wu grow up, and I know his character best. Although his words are unpleasant.

Some, but if you are not a bad person, you will never do such a thing."

"I also believe it's not Fifth Brother, but this person must be very familiar with Fifth Brother. And the two of them probably went to the jade shop together and chose this jade bracelet for you."

Jin Yun lowered his eyes and looked at the jade bracelet worn on Zhao Li's wrist.

Hearing this, Zhao Li thought about it for a moment.

She suddenly remembered that a few days before her birthday, Lao Wu stayed with Hui'er every day.

Thinking of this, she shook her head.

Although Hui'er was not her biological daughter, she was the one who raised her.

In her heart, her status is no lower than Lao Wu.

She didn't doubt Lao Wu, and naturally she wouldn't doubt Hui'er either.

"Actually, it's not necessarily someone from the mansion. Maybe... maybe there are other people who deliberately guided them to buy this jade bracelet with problems, right?"

"Um!"

Jin Yun nodded and did not refute her words.

Looking at Zhao Li's expression, you can tell that she must be thinking of something, but she just doesn't want to admit it.

She has already said what needs to be said.

Mrs. Zhao Li trusts Zhao Xinghui too much. I am afraid that even if Zhao Xinghui stood in front of her and admitted the matter personally, she would not believe it.

Trust needs to be broken down little by little.

Anyway, Zhao Li's life is not in danger for the time being, so let's take it slow!

Xiaocui was lying at the door and couldn't hear even a sound.

Just when she was wondering, a man walked slowly towards her.

"Xiao Cui, what are you doing lying here?"

Xiaocui was frightened when she heard the familiar voice.
