Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

The driver was very surprised.

But as Nie Qingru's right-hand man, Shadow's words carry a lot of weight.

The driver only considered it for a moment, and then said to the two of them respectfully: "Okay, I'm not far away. The Queen and Master Shadow can call me at any time."

The shadow watched the driver walk away, reaching a distance where it was impossible to hear the corner of the wall. Then he turned back and looked at the master he had followed for decades.

The muscles on both sides of the cheeks were shaking violently, and for the first time, I felt suspicious.

He didn't have time to speak.

Nie Qingru was the first to break the silence: "Hey, you are so brave now that you don't even take me seriously."

Shadow's back felt cold, and he immediately knelt on one knee in front of her: "Queen, forgive me. This subordinate is just in a hurry and has not violated your wishes."

"Tell me." Nie Qingru didn't argue with him. She sat in the car without closing the door and looked at him sharply: "What do you want to say to me?"

The shadow suddenly raised his head and touched her cold eyes. He didn't know why those words were lingering in his heart, but he couldn't speak.

Nie Qingru waited for a few seconds, but before he could speak, the sneer on his face disappeared: "My patience is limited. If you don't say anything, let the driver come back."

Veins bulged on Shadow's forehead. He clenched his hands, loosened them, and clenched them again. Finally, he mustered up the courage to look into her eyes: "Queen, have you made a decision?"

Nie Qingru's originally weakened expression was completely cold, and she looked at him with murderous intent: "What should I do that makes it your turn to intervene?"

"But Mr. Qi is the person you have watched since childhood and devoted your heart and soul to him like a son. Are you really willing to sacrifice him?" Shadow said very excitedly.

He is not a fool.

After following Nie Qingru for decades, he knew his master's words and deeds very well.

If the Queen had given Qi Shao a hard lesson just now in the ward, there would still be room for change, and at least the Queen would still be willing to protect Qi Shao.

But the Queen's attitude in the ward just now was unreasonably gentle. She even lightly patted Mr. Qi on the shoulder before leaving...

Perhaps in Qi Shao's view, this is a sign of intimacy.

But Shadow knew very well how Ji Qing died.

Before Ji Qing's death, the Queen had the same attitude.

Instead of her usual harshness, she becomes gentle and like an ordinary mother.

But……

"Queen, I know that Master Qi has caused you a lot of trouble this time, but if you insist on saving Master Qi's life, the Privy Council may not dare to..." The shadow spoke quickly and urgently, and a fine layer of liquid secreted from the tip of his nose. Sweating, I don’t know whether it’s anxiety or fear.

But he wasn't done yet.

Nie Qingru interrupted him: "That's enough!"

Shadow raised his head and looked at her blankly: "Are you really planning to..."

Nie Qingru looked at him sharply: "You know better than anyone how much I have sacrificed and how much I have compromised to get to where I am today."

Shadow lowered his head and said feebly: "I know. But..."

But that was Mr. Qi!

He was the child he had watched grow up.

He really couldn't bear it.

"I know what you want to say, but I can't ruin my whole life's hard work for him!" Nie Qingru closed her eyes heavily, and a sweet taste filled her chest.

She didn't feel any better than Shadow.

But now this is the only way she has left.

"I trained him since he was a child, gave him the best education, and hired the best teachers for him. Even in order for him to have a quiet environment, I didn't push him to the bright side for the first thirty years, and secretly cleared things up for him. Obstacles ahead…”
