The night was very long, and after Chu Yuqin had patrolled the inner courtyard several times, she planned to sit in the yard for a while.

It was then that she saw Bai Qingqing, dressed in white, standing on the rooftop and gazing into the distance.

Chu Yuqin was somewhat curious. It wasn’t Bai Qingqing’s turn to be on duty tonight, so why hadn’t she gone to sleep and instead was standing on the rooftop?

Chu Yuqin then used her Qinggong to leap onto the roof in a few steps, approaching Bai Qingqing, “Bai, it’s not your turn to stand guard tonight, how come you haven’t gone back to your room to sleep?”

After hearing Chu Yuqin’s question, Bai Qingqing answered expressionlessly, “I can’t sleep.”

This…

Chu Yuqin asked with curiosity, “Do you have something on your mind? Perhaps if you talk about it, you’ll feel much better.”

In her mind, Chu Yuqin thought that since Bai Qingqing had been emotionless since childhood, logically, she shouldn’t have any troubles that would prevent her from sleeping. Why would she have a sleepless night? This made Chu Yuqin feel a bit strange.

At this point, Bai Qingqing said, “I don’t have any troubles, I just can’t sleep.”

Chu Yuqin was slightly stunned; without any troubles, how could she not sleep?

But she didn’t keep pressing the matter. Everyone has their secrets, and Bai Qingqing was no exception. If she didn’t want to talk about it, that was fine.

At that moment, Chu Yuqin also turned to look in the direction Bai Qingqing was looking. She thought to herself that since Bai Qingqing couldn’t sleep, she might as well stay on the rooftop with her for a while.

Just as Chu Yuqin was thinking this, she suddenly faintly heard the sound of an animal’s distressed cry.

Hearing this sound, Chu Yuqin didn’t pay much attention to it. In the inner courtyard of the Prince’s Mansion, it was normal for such sounds to appear. Every night when she patrolled, she could almost always hear similar sounds.

As for who made these sounds, it was quite obvious. Who else could it be other than that little rascal?

Chu Yuqin didn’t intend to search for the source of these sounds. She continued to stand on the rooftop, keeping Bai Qingqing company in the breeze.

Gradually, an hour passed, and the sounds from the inner courtyard grew louder.

Chu Yuqin suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

Although she regularly heard such sounds in the inner courtyard of the Prince’s Mansion, for some reason, she always felt like the sounds were similar to Chu Qingli’s voice.

Having always been around the wives and concubines of Lu Chen, she was very familiar with their voices. Even though their voices would change a bit when they cried out, she could still discern some differences.

This time, the sounds from the inner courtyard didn’t seem to be those of Lu Chen’s wives or concubines.

Chu Yuqin turned her head to glance at Bai Qingqing and then said, “Bai, I’m going to patrol again.”

Bai Qingqing responded expressionlessly, “Hmm.”

Chu Yuqin then jumped down from the rooftop and followed the direction from which the sound was coming.

As she walked, she found herself at the entrance to her own courtyard.

Chu Yuqin was immediately stunned, and at this point, Chu Qingli’s voice became even louder.

Chu Yuqin suddenly realized, recalling that during the recent period of diligent practice, Chu Qingli had fallen into devilment. She must have been possessed again.

The thought had barely crossed her mind before Chu Yuqin hurried toward Chu Qingli’s room, quickly arriving at her door, just as Chu Qingli’s voice suddenly took on an even stranger tone.

“Ah…”

Chu Yuqin, thinking that Chu Qingli’s possession was extremely severe, pushed the door open in desperation and blurted out, “Qingli, are you alright? Hang in there, I’ll go immediately to…”

Before she could finish her sentence, the scene before her eyes dumbfounded her, and she stood frozen in place, staring with shock at the two people inside the room.

She had been about to say, “I’ll go call Chen’er right away,” but then she realized there was no need for that. Wasn’t Lu Chen right there in the room?

The previously confused Chu Qingli snapped back to reality upon seeing Chu Yuqin bursting in, her anxiety peaking in an instant, leaving her utterly dumbstruck.

After regaining her composure, Chu Qingli frantically stammered, “Sister… listen to my explanation, it’s not what you… ah… think you saw…”

Lu Chen, unfazed by Chu Yuqin’s intrusion, continued with his actions. Noticing Chu Qingli attempting to get up, he pressed her down instead, preventing her from escaping.

Seeing Lu Chen continue his misdeeds in her presence, Chu Yuqin’s face flushed red with embarrassment, then she hastily retreated from the room, “Chen’er, you two carry on, I’ll come back to find you later.”

Once Chu Yuqin had left the room, Chu Qingli felt both shamed and annoyed. Turning to look at Lu Chen, she scolded, “You… jerk!”

Lu Chen did not care about her reproach. Let her scold; the affair had already been exposed anyway. Now, it was a good opportunity to confront Chu Yuqin.

Chu Qingli continued to struggle, but the more she resisted, the more she fueled Lu Chen’s inner rage, ultimately backfiring on Chu Qingli herself.

After Chu Yuqin stepped out of the room, her mind was completely blank.

She had always thought the noises coming from Chu Qingli’s room were due to a cultivation deviation. She didn’t notice anything between the two, even last time when Lu Chen appeared in her room.

But now it seemed…

The issue wasn’t cultivation deviation at all; it was that scoundrel Lu Chen who had completely devoured Chu Qingli.

Thinking about it, had Lu Chen misbehaved with Chu Qingli more than just this once?

It dawned on her, with a flicker of anger in her heart, that she had previously suggested moving Chu Qingli away from the North Prince Mansion, and he seemed somewhat reluctant.

She had thought it was because he was worried Chu Qingli would be left untreated if she got possessed again. Little did she know, he had such intentions.

Cultivation deviation indeed…

What a great excuse!

Hearing the continued commotion inside the room, Chu Yuqin curled her lip in disdain. Despite being caught in the act, that scoundrel carried on with his misdeeds, completely unbothered.

No wonder Chu Qingli’s possession kept relapsing; with Lu Chen “treating” her like that, it would be odd if she got better.

With a sigh, Chu Yuqin reflected on the situation.

She had long suspected that Lu Chen had feelings for Chu Qingli and that one day he would make a move on her. However, she never imagined that Lu Chen would clandestinely engage in mischief with Chu Qingli.

Seeing Lu Chen’s apparent indifference to being discovered, it seemed he was ready to come clean. Chu Yuqin then walked over to the pavilion in the courtyard to sit and wait for them to come out and confront her.
