Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 158 Who Betrayed Her?

There was no one else in the dark and cramped alley, and Song Jinyue didn't dare to walk further in, stopping in the alley next to the main street.

She stopped and looked at the man behind her.

"I wonder if the fifth prince came here specifically to find his maiden today?"

Before He Yuanjian could speak, Song Jinyue asked.

He Yuanzhen looked magnanimous and answered neatly, "Yes."

Song Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not ask any more questions. Suspicions gradually arose in her heart.

She left the house today and went through the back door. Ming Zhuxuan's staff were all left by her mother. Although they had just returned to the house, she had asked Nanny Yuan to look at them carefully in the past few days, and she had not made any mistakes.

She could trust those people, so who betrayed her?

On the way out of the house from the back door, I saw no one else. Except for the mother-in-law Shen who was guarding the back door, there was no one else.

But now, Grandma Shen's sons are working in front of her, and Grandma Shen will not betray herself.

"Your Highness, you have to prepare for the wedding now."

"Old slave, I've taken note of it, old slave, I've taken note of it." Aunt Shen shivered unexpectedly, kneeling on the ground, and replied repeatedly.

"Yes...it's Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin came to ask if you are at the house and wants to give you something..."

"If His Highness really likes my daughter, he should consider her for her sake. He should not come to see my daughter like this and let my eldest sister know. Your Highness is not afraid that something might happen to the fetus in my eldest sister's house?"

A few days ago, after my son finished his errands, he specifically told himself not to offend the second young lady.

Song Jinyue nodded slightly and then entered the Duke's Mansion through the half-open back door.

Coincidentally, when she was playing cards last night, she forgot the time for a while, so she was inevitably sleepy when she was on duty today.

She paused slightly and saw Aunt Shen shaking her head violently, "Or...you have to suffer some hardships before you are willing to say it?"

She just waited for the sound of footsteps to spread far away before she got up again, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't hear the footsteps of the second lady leaving. Only then did Aunt Shen tentatively raise her head.

"Yes, it's my future uncle Qin."

Aunt Shen was trembling and secretly looked at the second young lady's face.

Aunt Shen was slightly stunned and shook her head hastily, "Second Miss, how dare I tell others about you..."

Song Jinyue snorted coldly, knelt down and looked at Aunt Shen, "Aunt Shen, are you really unwilling to tell the truth?"

Song Jinyue stared straight at He Yuanjian, peeling off his veil layer by layer.

"Master Qin?"

Grandma Shen was trembling, she no longer dared to look at the second young lady's expression, she lowered her head and did not dare to look around, for fear of making the second young lady angry again.

"Now that His Highness has got a wife, and his daughter has a home, Your Highness should not be entangled with her anymore."

"Aunt Shen, this is just this once. If there is another time, you can go home and take care of yourself in old age."

"Don't regret rejecting me today!"

Aunt Shen became loose, and Song Jinyue slowly stood up and said coldly: "Speak!"

There was a hint of impatience in her tone, "Your Highness, I have made it clear to you several times that I do not like Your Highness, and the previous engagement was not what I wanted."

"Second Miss, old slave, old slave deserves to die!"

Then she saw the second young lady standing in front of her. She didn't say anything, but her face was so cold that it made people tremble in their hearts.

There was no emotion in Song Jinyue's tone, which was cold and cold. In the past, she didn't care, but it didn't mean that she would condone Nanny Shen to neglect her duties like this during the day.

But no matter how much he asked, his son refused to tell.

The back door of the Duke's Mansion was ajar. Qiu Yun stepped forward and pushed open a door, and poked her body inside. Then she turned around and looked at her young lady, "Miss, only Grandma Shen is here."

Song Jinyue's steps were frivolous and she didn't know how to get back to Mingzhuxuan.

Just now, her heart was beating rapidly, as if her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

This is obviously a lie.

"Second Miss?"

Song Jinyue was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the alley.

She opened her mouth tentatively, her tone full of confusion.

Looking at He Yuanjie's expression of deep love and longevity, Song Jinyue only felt that it was getting more and more annoying.

Song Jinyue lowered her forehead slightly and looked at Grandma Shen's expression.

At a glance, he saw Nanny Shen squatting in front of the unopened back door, dozing off with her eyes closed.

So where did He Yuan frame get the news that he was leaving the house?

Or does the problem really lie with Aunt Shen?

"I wonder if Your Highness is looking for my daughter today. How did my eldest sister know about it?"

When she mentioned Song Jinxi, she could clearly see that He Yuanjie's face darkened, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

Qiu Yun almost trotted all the way behind her young lady.

After seeing the person standing in front of him clearly, he came back to his senses and knelt down suddenly on the ground, his body trembling slightly, "Second Miss, old slave... Old slave was just sleepy for a while, so he squinted for a while...

…”

Song Jinyue clearly saw that when Nanny Shen said this, her eyes were moving around and she did not dare to look at her.

Behind him and He Yuanzhen's low voice revealed a bit of suppressed fury. Song Jinyue paused in her steps. In the end, she didn't look back or answer. She quickly stepped out of the alley.

She didn't want to coddle He Yuanjie, so it was good to be close to him.

The sound of Qiu Yun closing the back door made Grandma Shen startle. She suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, "Who?"

In this way, He Yuanjie could not keep pretending, his expression was sinister, as if he was suppressing anger.

Song Jinyue's good mood at the moment was gone. She was anxious to go back home to figure out one thing!

When they returned home, they also chose the back door.

On weekdays, she took a nap on the back door at night, and the back door was always locked, so the second lady never blamed her for this.

She had never doubted her son's ability to see people. His seriousness and repeated warnings made her inexplicably afraid, fearing that his son knew something.

"Who did you mention about my leaving the house today?"

Song Jinyue didn't come back to her senses for a moment.

Aunt Shen knelt on the ground with her head on the bluestone, not daring to look at the second young lady.

"Sister Jinyue, you really are the only one in my heart. Are you really unwilling to forgive me?"

"Qiu Yun, let's go back home."

Is there anything she doesn't know about? How could Qin Sheng inform He Yuanjie of her whereabouts?

After entering the house, Qiu Yun hurriedly closed the doors and windows. Seeing her young lady's dejected appearance, she also felt uncomfortable.

Her young lady was kind to the Qin brothers and sisters, how could Mr. Qin do this?

On the way back home, she only thought that meeting the fifth prince on the street today was a coincidence.

But when the young lady interrogated Aunt Shen, she also became suspicious. When Aunt Shen told Mr. Qin, Qiu Yun became angry.

"Miss, why don't you ask me to go find Master Qin and ask him?"

Seeing the lady sitting blankly in front of the desk, Qiu Yun said tentatively.
