Meng Ying fell to the ground, her eyes were empty, and she muttered to herself in a low voice, "It was he who killed Erlang, it was his fault, it was his fault..."

If it was true that Young Master Shen hadn't killed her lover back then, then what she did... would really be a tragedy.

However, Master Shen's words reminded Murong Yue that the key to all this lies in whether the man named Erlang really beat him to death, or he took the money and left. As long as he is found, all the mysteries can be answered .

"My lord~"

Chu Huaishang was playing chess in the yard, when he heard the sound, he raised his head slightly, and saw Murong Yue walking towards him with a smile, and sat down opposite him.

Looking at the chessboard with great interest, "My lord, why are you playing chess with yourself?"

"Is something wrong?"

Chu Huaishang asked instead.

Murong Yue shook her head, casually picked up the snack beside her and ate it, "It's nothing, I'm just bored to see you."

Seeing him ignoring her, Murong Yue was not embarrassed, she propped up the table with one hand, tilted her head to watch him play chess.

In fact, she was in a bad mood because of the Shen family's affairs, but she didn't know who to talk to, so she wandered around the mansion, and finally came to him.

Staring at him playing chess without saying a word, the strong sense of presence made Chu Huaishang have to notice her, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

He used to have a lively and boisterous temperament, but he was not used to being so quiet all of a sudden.

Murong Yue was silent for a long time before she said sullenly, "My lord, why are you always so cruel when you tell the truth?"

On the one hand, she wanted to find that person named Erlang and explain what happened back then, but on the other hand, she was afraid that if what Master Shen said was true, how would Meng Ying face such a cruel fact.

The person who wanted to marry betrayed him, but the person who was good to him was hurt by her so much, and even killed him. Just thinking about it makes people feel suffocated.

Hearing this, Chu Huaishhang's chess hand paused slightly, before speaking, "To her, the truth may be cruel, but to innocent people, isn't it important?"

People always have to take responsibility for what they have done, blindly avoiding, blindly not touching the truth, can they feel at ease?

Murong Yue understood what he meant, but people are often emotional, and she would worry that Meng Ying is also human.

"Maybe what you said is right, maybe the truth is cruel, but making Meng Ying hate Shen Ke all the time is also a cruel thing for Shen Ke."

This is not something she can change, and Murong Yue didn't continue to struggle, "My lord, why don't I play chess with you? It's so boring to be alone."

"Ah."

Originally, he was just using it to pass the time, thinking about things by the way, so she could play as she wanted.

After the chessboard was set up, Murong Yue said while playing, "I'm not very good at playing, so let me go."

Seeing her serious appearance, Chu Huaishang couldn't help laughing, no one would beg for mercy before they started, playing chess was originally for enjoying the fun of the game between the two sides, but now it has become a game to play with her instead.

"I heard that you like the pastries of Yuxiangfang very much recently?"

"Ok?"

Murong Yue blinked because she didn't understand, so what?

"How about, let's make a bet, if you can win ten pieces from me, how about I ask Su Yu to buy you pastries for a month?"

"!!!"

There is enough to eat for a month, and you don’t have to wait in line. How could you not agree to such a good thing!

Murong Yue grabbed his hand excitedly, her eyes sparkled, "You said it! Don't go back on your word!"

Chu Huaishang looked down at the little white hand, squeezed it quietly, and took it out when she was not paying attention, "I don't regret it."

For delicious cakes, she is full of fighting spirit and confidence, as if she is deciding on a major life event, thinking for a long time every step she takes, although it is difficult to win his chess game, is it not easy to win him with ten chess pieces?

It's a pity that Murong Yue underestimated his ability. Every time he managed to win nine chess pieces, he seemed to deliberately prevent her from winning the last chess piece, which made her more and more courageous, playing for several hours in a row , it was getting dark.

"My lord, did you do it on purpose!"

With her hands up, she puffed her cheeks and stared at him angrily.

"You are not good at chess, blame me?" Chu Huaishang raised his eyebrows slightly, as if mocking her stupidity.

"Humph!"

No wonder he raised this bet, he was clearly sure that he would not win!

The dark eyeballs rolled around, and I didn't know what to think, and pretended to hit my head, "Oh, I'm so stupid, I obviously won!"

"you win?"

When Chu Huaishang saw her like this, he knew that she was playing with a twisted mind.

"That's right! You said that I only need to win ten chess pieces from you, but you didn't say it was one game. I have played seven or eight games with you, so I have already won more than ten chess pieces from you. Of course I won La!"

Murong Yue triumphantly put her hips on her hips, with the attitude of a winner, he has his plan, and she also has her bridge ladder!

He would take advantage of the loopholes in his writing, Chu Huaishhang sighed helplessly, anyway, it was just to tease her, "Okay, I'm the loser this time."

"Then thank you, my lord."

Murong Yue saluted pretendingly, with a smile on her face, she seemed to be in a good mood.
