Chapter 65: Don’t Know Her
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Kong Rui walked to the servants and instructed, “Why are you guys still kneeling here? Have you finished your work already?”
Upon hearing Kong Rui’s words, the servants no longer dared to continue kneeling on the spot. They crawled up from the ground, grabbed their tools, and began to work “diligently”.
Li Han was extremely angry, so she naturally didn’t plan to leave just like that.
Xiao Cui struggled to get up and brushed the soil off her body. Then, she clutched her aching abdomen and walked to Li Han’s side. “Miss…”
Li Han glared at Xiao Cui and cursed in a low voice, “Useless thing!”
Although Xiao Cui was aggrieved, she didn’t dare to retort.
She lowered her head and endured Li Han’s angry reproach.
Seeing Li Han slap Xiao Cui, Kong Rui couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. “You don’t have to teach the servants a lesson here. My courtyard doesn’t have so many rules, so there’s no need to establish your might here! If you want to teach your people a lesson, just go back to your room and deal with it yourself! If there’s nothing else, I still have to…”
Before Kong Rui could finish, the door to the east room was opened from the inside and Chao Bai walked out.
He took a few steps to Kong Rui’s side and looked at her. “Why were you gone for so long?”
Kong Rui looked up at Chao Bai. “Why are you out so quickly? Go back and rest!”
Chao Bai shook his head. “I’ve been asleep for too long! Why are you back so late?” Chao Bai asked again, as if he were a husband questioning his wife’s whereabouts.
Kong Rui felt a headache and replied perfunctorily, “You said that you would listen to me here and not question my decisions.”
Hearing Kong Rui’s words, Chao Bai immediately frowned and pursed his lips, looking indignant but helpless.
Li Han stood a few steps away as she watched the interaction between the two of them. She couldn’t help but be shocked.
From the moment Chao Bai walked out of the room, Li Han’s eyes never left him. The person she had been looking for for so long actually appeared in Li Ling’s courtyard?
Who was he?
Why was he here?
What was his relationship with Li Ling?
These questions drove Li Han crazy.
She tried her best to resist the urge to grab the other party and ask. As she watched the couple interact like husband and wife, she was filled with anger.
When Xiao Cui saw Chao Bai, she was also shocked. Wasn’t this the person who used a strange trick outside the residence that day and almost killed her? This person knew Miss Li Ling?
Could it be that Miss Li Ling had asked this person to kill her that day?
The more Xiao Cui thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
She turned around to report to Li Han, but she saw Li Han staring straight at the youth.
Kong Rui was vexed that Li Han had come to her courtyard to cause trouble, but then Chao Bai came out and added to the trouble. Kong Rui found it funny and endearing that he was afraid she would abandon him.
She reached out and patted Chao Bai’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’ll do what I promised.”
Suddenly, Kong Rui thought of something. “You weren’t resting just now?”
“No!” Chao Bai replied firmly without any hesitation.
“You know about everything that happened in the courtyard just now?” Kong Rui confirmed again.
“I do.” Chao Bai still answered quickly without even thinking.
Kong Rui frowned slightly and looked at Chao Bai quizzically. “She injured those servants and even tried to kill those people dead. You didn’t plan to interfere?”
“What does it have to do with me?” Chao Bai still didn’t hesitate when answering.
Kong Rui’s frown deepened. “Then you simply let that woman do whatever she wanted in my courtyard?”
Hearing this question, Chao Bai froze for a moment. Then, he turned to look at Li Han before turning back to face Kong Rui. “If you hadn’t come, I would have dealt with her!”
Hearing Chao Bai’s answer, Kong Rui felt a little better.
On the other hand, when Li Han heard this answer, she was overcome with shock, hesitation, and anguish.
She looked at Chao Bai in disbelief, as if she couldn’t understand why the youth in front of her was so ruthless to her.
Kong Rui, who glanced at Li Han and saw her betrayed look, almost laughed out loud.
Li Han stared at Chao Bai’s face as she took two steps forward excitedly. “Don’t you recognize me?”
