At this moment, Old Lady Xiao looked at Old Lady Zhu with a bad expression on her face. She had wanted to curry favor with her before, but today was different from the past. If she wanted to gain the greatest benefit, she had to be tough.

"Old Madam, I guess you also heard the news and rushed here in a hurry, right?"

When Madam Zhu saw Madam Xiao, her expression changed.

"We still don't know how this will turn out. It takes two to tango. Even if my Xiaoliu is wrong, does that mean your Second Miss is not wrong?"

"What do you mean by that? Now it is the son of your Zhu family who has brought disaster to our family's Xiao Ruge. Do you want to deny your debt?"

Xu's sarcastic voice sounded, remembering her mother-in-law's instructions just now and making sure to get the greatest benefit from the Zhu family.

"Well, let's go in and take a look. What's the point of making such a fuss here?"

Old Madam Xiao scolded, looking as if she wanted to suppress the matter, but her loud voice attracted the attention of the people around her.

Xiao Ruge and the other person were upstairs, watching the noisy crowd downstairs and pushing open the door. After a while, they heard screams coming from the house, followed by Xu's angry shouts.

The people outside the gate immediately crowded towards the door again, stretching their necks to look into the yard.

Xiao Ruge put down the wine jug with a smile, then turned and walked out.

Mu Gu thought about it for a moment and didn't move. He knew that Xiao Ruge didn't want others to see her with him.

A trace of loneliness flashed across Taohua's eyes. She called Mo Yi and asked him to follow Xiao Ruge downstairs and hide in the crowd to protect her.

When everyone pushed open the door and saw Chunzhi guarding the yard, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Xu knew something was wrong.

Before anyone could say anything to stop them, Madam Zhu had already asked her maid to pull Chunzhi away and forcefully push open the bedroom door.

When she saw two figures rolling together on the bed, Madam Zhu thought it was Xiao Ruge and Zhu Chengxi, and she was so angry that she asked someone to quickly pull the two of them away.

But who knew that after the old woman pulled the two apart, she could see clearly that this was not the Sixth Young Master, and that the woman was not the Second Young Lady of the Xiao family.

Lu Yu was in high spirits when he was suddenly interrupted. He couldn't suppress his anger. Without even looking at him, he yelled, "Get lost!"

Xiao Mingyue was also in a daze. She felt like the weight on her body was gone and she was a little uncomfortable. She sat up and called Lu Yu.

"Brother Lu..."

"Snapped!"

As soon as she shouted, she was slapped hard on the face. Her dizzy mind suddenly became clear. She looked up and saw Xu glaring at her angrily, which scared her so much that her mind suddenly became clear.

"Ming Yue! How could you do such a thing?"

"Mom, why are you here?"

She suddenly felt that there were a lot of people in the room. She turned her head and found that not only Mrs. Xiao was there, but also Mrs. Zhu was there.

She was in a very affectionate relationship with Lu Yu just now, and was left with only her bellyband. She screamed and quickly pulled the quilt to cover her body.

Old Madam Xiao was so angry that her eyes went dark and she fell backwards. Fortunately, she was supported by Madam Qian, who quickly pinched her philtrum. She breathed a sigh of relief and finally recovered.

After she came to her senses, she quickly asked someone to close the door. How could she let outsiders know about such a shameful thing?

But she was a step too late after all. The gate was already surrounded by people watching the fun. Even if the gate was closed, everyone knew what was going on.

Someone was having an affair here and was caught in bed!

Old Madam Zhu and Madam Zhu San stood by and watched the show, feeling that Old Madam Xiao was trying to cover up something that was only making it more obvious.

When seeing that the two maids were unable to control Lu Yu, Madam Zhu San curled her lips in disdain.

"Hurry up and let go of this young man. He is the sweetheart of Fourth Miss Xiao. Don't let him get hurt again!"

The two maids were from the Zhu family. After hearing what the Third Lady said, they immediately let go of Lu Yu.

At this time, Lu Yu's mind had become somewhat clearer. When he saw the room full of people, his brows furrowed tightly.

He turned around to look at Xiao Mingyue lying on the bed, his eyes filled with anger. He felt that Xiao Mingyue had deliberately framed him because she saw that he was reluctant to propose marriage, with the intention of marrying him.

Feeling Lu Yu's gaze, Xiao Mingyue looked at him and cried, with nothing but tear marks and helplessness on her face.

"Brother Lu..."

There is a mixture of grievance and helplessness, and anyone who hears this voice feels soft in the heart.

Madam Zhu sneered and looked at Xu with disdain, "The Xiao family really taught their daughter well, but she actually rushed to have sex with someone, how shameless!"

"Okay, Third Wife, please stop talking!"

The majestic voice gave a lukewarm reprimand. Madam Zhu looked serious, but she felt very comfortable in her heart.

She glanced at the old lady Xiao who was sitting beside her with a pale face, and said softly: "It seems that today is a misunderstanding. There is no Sixth Son of the Zhu Family and no Fourth Miss Xiao here. In this case, let's leave."

After saying this, he sneered and left with the people from the Zhu family.

Old Madam Xiao looked at Lu Yu and Xiao Mingyue coldly, and finally said to Lu Yu: "Mr. Lu, no matter what happened today, you have seen my Mingyue's body after all, you should show your attitude, right?"

"What attitude does the old lady want me to give?"

Lu Yu had regained his composure by this time.

He picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on slowly, weighing the pros and cons of marrying Xiao Mingyue in his mind.

He originally wanted to marry Xiao Ruge and use her to achieve his own goals, but after arriving in the capital, Xiao Ruge attracted the attention of several other princes.

He knew he was no match for his opponent, so he could only lie in wait and wait for his opportunity.

Contacting Xiao Mingyue was just a way to find a way out for myself.

Today's incident was quite strange. Regardless of whether Xiao Mingyue had framed him or not, he could not abandon her. Otherwise, when he ascended to the throne in the future, he would inevitably be criticized.

He looked at Xiao Mingyue again and saw that her little face was full of tears, looking very pitiful, and his heart couldn't help but be moved.

In fact, it's not bad to marry Xiao Mingyue. Her father is the Censor-in-Chief, who holds real power, and her third uncle is also a fifth-rank general, which will be a help to him in the future.

Lu Yu's cold attitude made Old Lady Xiao gasp for air again, and she pointed at Lu Yu with shaking fingers.

"Although my Xiao family is not a noble family, it is also an honest family. Now that you have seduced my daughter to do such a ridiculous thing, shouldn't you take responsibility?"

Xu's eyes were red with hatred. She pushed Lu Yu hard, but she didn't hurt Lu Yu at all. Instead, she was pushed back by the recoil and sat on the bed.

She choked up and accused Lu Yu, "My daughter is innocent, but you held her down like this, and many people saw it. Do you want to cheat?"

After hearing what her mother said, Xiao Mingyue cried even louder and reached out to pull Xu's sleeve to defend Lu Yu.
