Chapter 268 "Now I'm caught by you
His eyes lit up, but soon sank. "Now that I've been caught by you, you can do whatever you want with me. I don't know anything about it. You don't need to waste your time."
Having said this, he lowered his head again, looking as if he would rather die than say anything.
Zhang Shuhe was furious and drew her sword to chop at the housekeeper. She was determined to get her revenge! So, she had no choice but to do it herself.
But to everyone's surprise, just as the long knife was about to stab him, the old butler suddenly pulled his neck and stretched it out.
Because things happened so quickly, Zhang Shuhe had no time to stop, so he saw the nanny being killed by her with a single knife.
Her knife was very sharp, and every cut left a bloody mark. Mu Ruixi quickly dodged to the side, but was also cut. She glared at Zhang Shuhe with an unhappy look on her face.
Zhang Shuhe looked at the scene in confusion. He lowered his head, looked at the knife in her hand, then looked at Mu Ruixi, and finally his gaze fell on Liu Zhiyuan.
"Uh, I didn't mean to do that. I just wanted revenge, but who knew he would actually commit suicide? I..."
Seeing that both of them were staring at him intently, he pouted and said with a look of grievance: "I was wrong."
"..." Mu Ruixi suddenly felt tired.
Liu Zhiyuan: "..." He didn't know what to say anymore.
"Don't worry, he's quite stubborn. He didn't say anything even though he was tortured so badly just now. I guess he won't say anything more in the future either. Don't take it to heart."
Mu Ruixi sighed and looked at Zhang Shuhe as if he had done something unforgivable. She sighed somewhat unwillingly.
She thought she could find a breakthrough from this housekeeper, but she didn't expect that once he died, all the clues would be cut off.
"Then what should we do?" Liu Zhiyuan asked when she saw that the man was dead.
"Of course I'll throw it away. How could I let you watch?" She was already furious because her plans had been disrupted, and now, she had a secret in her hand, and it just happened to be delivered to her door. Of course, she had to take it out on him.
Liu Zhiyuan spread her hands helplessly. She winked at Zhang Shuhe and shouted to her men, "Throw him in the back mountain!"
Having said that, she glanced at the corpse on the ground. Mu Ruixi was quite capable and might be able to get something out of her mouth, but this time, she was afraid she had no chance.
"It's all my fault." Even though Mu Ruixi said this, Zhang Shuhe still felt very guilty.
If it weren't for her, they would have found out long ago, and she wouldn't have acted so rashly towards her. However, she never expected that the housekeeper would actually come to her on his own initiative, which made her very helpless.
"It's not your fault. If he had the guts to commit suicide, I don't think he would say such a thing. Besides, I think they've done this many times. If they failed this time, there must be other clues."
Mu Ruixi sighed in relief.
Mu Ruixi returned to her residence holding her injured right hand, looking in excruciating pain. The soldiers behind her also looked miserable, and Zhang Shuhe also looked injured.
She secretly wondered what Liu Zhiyuan was thinking and how she could have such good news that Mu Ruixi knew it so clearly.
Zhang Shuhe looked up and saw that she looked dazed. He thought she was upset because he had killed his housekeeper. He said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Can you please give me a smile?"
"Huh?" He was slightly stunned. Hearing this, Mu Ruixi's thoughts suddenly returned to reality. She realized that she had been distracted. Now that she thought about it, she was indeed distracted today.
It was all Liu Zhiyuan's fault. She was so mysterious. "I told you I don't care. Don't overthink it. Huh?"
"Are you sure?" Zhang Shuhe's eyes widened in disbelief. Mu Ruixi smiled and shook her head. She didn't know that Zhang Shuhe was afraid of being scolded by her parents. She was like a child who needed Mu Ruixi's care.
Mu Ruixi turned her head away with a look of disgust. Zhang Shuhe pursed her lips, as if rejected, and turned away.
Mu Ruixi helped her into the house, took out the medicine box and applied medicine to Zhang Shuhe. Hehua and Gao Ting arrived one after another.
"Princess, I see those soldiers are injured." Hehua heard the voice first, but didn't see anyone, so she hurried in. Behind her was a panic-stricken person. When she saw Zhang Shuhe, whose body was covered in blood and whose right hand was seriously injured, she was stunned. Did she say something shocking?
Gao Ting felt bad when he saw Zhang Shuhe was so badly injured. He ran over and asked with concern, "Shuhe, are you okay?"
Zhang Shuhe said dissatisfiedly: "Look at you, you've made such a big deal. How can it be that easy?"
Gao Ting scratched his head, muttered, "That's right," and then quietly stepped aside. He Hua also came out tactfully. Mu Ruixi was concentrating on applying medicine to him. When Zhang Shuhe grimaced in pain, his hand loosened. "I was careless and hurt Shuhe."
Zhang Shuhe stuck out his tongue and said that this was all his fault. He didn't want the two of them to bear the responsibility for this matter. It wasted a lot of time. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Muwen asked, "What's wrong? Yue'er was injured so badly?"
His voice was a little worried and a little guilty. If he hadn't promised her, this wouldn't have happened.
Mu Ruixi stood up and dusted off her clothes, acting as if nothing had happened, indicating that she was not seriously injured. "Tell me, let's find a solution together."
"We were ambushed on the way here." Mu Ruixi lowered her head, hatred flashing in her eyes. Lin Mu knew that these people she brought were all trained by her personally, but now they are gone. How could she not be heartbroken?
Don't be fooled by his nonchalant appearance now, he probably already wants to kill someone in his heart.
"Your Highness, we were attacked by the enemy, and the enemy is very likely a big shot." Zhang Shuhe interrupted her. She knew that Mu Ruixi would not explain the matter in too much detail, so she let her tell it herself. Anyway, she would definitely feel uncomfortable if she didn't say it.
Gao Ting was shocked. He didn't expect the two of them to survive. "But with Liu Zhiyuan's help, we finally survived!"
Lin Mu was thoughtful after hearing this. He suddenly felt a little doubtful about Liu Zhiyuan. His Mu Ruixi survived the brink of death twice because she saved her. It can be seen that she is not an ordinary person.
