After his wife and daughter died tragically, the scumbag prince's hair turned white overnight

Chapter 143 Don’t you recognize me so quickly?

Su Liuxi cried bitterly, "Brother Gu Shi, I am innocent..."

Gu Shi, sitting at the head of the table, snorted coldly, "Whether you are wronged or not, you know it yourself. Could it be that your clothes will fall to the ground by themselves?"

A female voice muttered softly from among the servants, "As the saying goes, some things take two to tango. If you don't want to do something, can anyone force you to do it?"

Gu Shi was furious. He stood up and looked at the servants kneeling in a pile. "Which blind man is talking nonsense? Get out of here."

Silence returned to the servants, and they were all silent.

Gu Shi gritted his teeth and looked at Su Liuxi again.

"I'm asking you again, what's going on?"

Su Liuxi crawled forward on her knees and grabbed the hem of Gu Shi's robe, "Brother Gu Shi, Brother Yong just came to see me..."

Gu Shi angrily pulled back his clothes and said, "A man from a mansion openly stepped into the backyard of a woman from a mansion. What do you want to talk about? Do you need to talk about it in bed?"

Shen Muxi and Su Pozi supported Kang on both sides and came to the main courtyard. They just saw Gu Shi furiously pulling the hem of his robe away from Su Liuxi's hand.

Kang blurted out, "Shi'er, what are you doing?"

Gu Shi's eyes flashed with terrifying coldness, "Mother, Su..."

"Okay, mother understands everything."

Before Gu Shi could speak, Kang interrupted what he was about to say.

He also paid some attention to Shen Muxi.

After confirming that Shen Muxi was not abnormal, he continued, "It's just a misunderstanding. Why are you making such a fuss? How can you be so disrespectful?"

"Mother concubine..."

"Okay, it's all gone."

Kang completely ignored Gu Shi's rebuttal, and directly ordered the servants to be dismissed and asked Qin Shou to send Su Kang away.

This was the last face she left for Su Liuxi.

Gu Shi looked at the two of them angrily, especially at Su Kang, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces.

Su Kang thanked Kang Shi naively, then looked at Gu Shi apologetically, "Brother Gu, no matter what I say now, you don't want to believe it.

However, justice is clear, and as long as I am wronged, the truth will eventually come out, and I have a clear conscience."

After saying that, Su Kang put on the clothes that Qin Shou had found for him and strode away.

No one knew that the simple and honest look on his face had already turned extremely ferocious the moment his figure disappeared into the darkness.

Kang had achieved his goal of preventing the farce from happening, and he was too tired to stay.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Su Liuxi seemed to have found a lifeline and crawled to Kang's side on her knees, "Mother-in-law, please help me... Your daughter-in-law has been wronged."

The woman in front of him had a face as pale as paper, with a few strands of hair stuck to her temples, wet with cold sweat. She looked disheveled, yet with a kind of fragility that made people feel pity for her.

It was not known whether she did it intentionally or unintentionally, but when she pounced on Kang, she actually pressed directly on Kang's left leg.

Gu Shi hurried forward and dragged Su Liuxi to her feet. "Mother's leg injury hasn't healed yet. She can't stand your torture."

This dragging without mercy caused Su Liuxi to feel a dull pain in her left shoulder. She couldn't help but cry out in pain while covering her left hand.

"Ah, Brother Gu Shi, my hand hurts..."

Gu Shi couldn't suppress the impatience between his eyebrows no matter what.

"Don't pretend. You were crawling on your knees just now. If there's any pain, it's your legs that hurt. Why are you saying your hands hurt?"

While speaking, he didn't even spare a glance for Su Liuxi, but instead looked at Kang with concern.

"Mother, how do your legs feel now?"

"It's much better than before," Kang looked at Shen Muxi, who had been serving her, with satisfaction, "Thanks to Shen, otherwise my leg would be useless."

Whenever Kang thought of her legs, he couldn't be nice to Su Liuxi.

As if intentionally trying to upset Su Liuxi, Kang, who was already halfway to leave, turned back to Gu Shi and said with a smile, "Shi'er, although Shen hasn't been serving Mother for a long time, Mother has noticed the change in her temper these days.

Anyway, you and her are no longer related. Otherwise, mother will adopt Shen as her adopted daughter and let her serve me. As for Xiaoxiao...you can register her under the Su family name and give her a good background, which will also complete the fate of your family."

Gu Shi glanced at Shen Muxi who was supporting the old princess. The latter did not raise her head, and her thick bangs hid the look in her eyes.

Suddenly, his hand tightened.

Su Liuxi, who was just complaining about the pain in her hand, had held his hand without him noticing. He gritted his teeth and said, "Everything is up to my mother."

"Okay, it's decided." Kang smiled and glanced at Su Liuxi. "Sometimes, there are some things that a woman can't control. Moreover, Su is weak now. If someone with ulterior motives wants to take advantage of her, it's not impossible."

"I will investigate everything. I will not wrongly accuse anyone, nor will I let those who have done evil go unpunished."

After hearing Gu Shi's statement, Kang left with satisfaction.

When she was about to return to Ronghui Hall, she spoke to Shen Muxi in an arrogant tone, "I have already said what I should say. I don't need to say more about what to do next."

Shen Muxi was delighted, "I will do my best to heal the old princess's leg."

Kang smiled with satisfaction.

"Soon, Xiaoxiao will be adopted by the Su family. If you can't even handle this little thing, you know the consequences."

Shen Muxi shrank back, "Yes."

...

Main courtyard.

A farce came to an end, but the atmosphere between Gu Shi and Su Liuxi was still tense.

After returning to the house, Gu Shi didn't even give Su Liuxi a glance.

Su Liuxi no longer cared about being reserved and raised her hand to grab his sleeve, "Brother Gu Shi, listen to my explanation."

Before Gu Shi could impatiently pull her hand away, she had already climbed onto Gu Shi's shoulders and hugged him tightly, following the force with which he tried to push her away.

"I was really wronged. I don't know why, but calming tea was added to today's medicine. When I woke up, Brother Yong was already in my bed."

Feeling that Gu Shi was no longer refusing, she continued her efforts.

"Believe me, I...I was really forced to do this."

In the room, the servants had already left tactfully. After Su Liuxi defended herself, Gu Shi didn't say anything else.

Su Liuxi didn't dare to say anything else.

You could hear a pin drop in the whole room.

Just as Su Liuxi was considering her words and wanted to speak again, Gu Shi finally spoke.

"Why did Su Yong suddenly appear in the backyard?"

Su Liuxi choked, "Since it's a frame-up, the other party must have made all the necessary preparations..."

"Then were you also framed when you went to his house in Yueya Lane before?"

Gu Shi took a step forward and pushed her into a corner.

Su Liuxi's eyes flickered, and she quickly looked up to meet Gu Shi's eyes.

"I......"

"Forget it," Gu Shi turned away without looking at Su Liuxi, as if in anger. "Some things, if they are not explained clearly from the beginning, no matter how much you say later, it will only make things worse."

After saying that, he strode away without looking back.

"Brother Gu Shi...ah..."

Su Liuxi wanted to catch up with Gu Shi in a hurry, but her left foot tripped over her right foot and she fell to the ground.

Her cry of pain did not make Gu Shi look back, it only made him stop for a brief moment.

"You should take a good rest these days. I will come to see you when I am done with my work."

His steps to leave became more and more urgent.

He completely ignored Su Liuxi who fell to the ground and cried heartbreakingly.

I don’t know how long it took.

A pair of coarse cloth women's shoes appeared in front of her, which was out of place with the exquisite woven carpet.

She stopped crying and looked up.

I met a face that couldn't be more familiar.

She screamed and crawled backwards using her hands and feet.

Shen Muxi pressed on step by step, forcing her to retreat, then squatted in front of her and smiled slightly, "Why, it's only been a short time since we last met, and you don't recognize me so quickly?"
