Chapter 222: Murder to Silence?
Zhu Zhuqing then quickly walked to the bed, pressed down Zhu Zhuyun, who was half-lying, and gritted her teeth, saying,
“Zhu Zhuyun, you vixen! I’m telling you, if you dare to seduce Bai Yu, I will absolutely never let you off!
Also, don’t forget, your current strength is not as great as mine. Aren’t you afraid I’ll make a move on you when you say such things in front of me?”
Zhu Zhuyun, who was pressed onto the bed, felt her heart skip a beat. She really hadn't expected that the man her younger sister Zhu Zhuqing found was actually the Spirit Hall Saint Child.
Zhu Zhuyun recalled the first day of the competition, when Bai Yu stood on the judging panel, his aura suppressing the entire arena, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She had to admit, her younger sister had good taste and good luck, to actually be able to latch onto the Spirit Hall Saint Child. No wonder her strength had improved so quickly.
As for this Saint Child of the Spirit Hall, she knew a bit about him. According to information from Star Luo’s secret agents, although his reputation hadn't been prominent these past few years, he held significant influence within the Spirit Hall.
Even in the lesser-known Elder Palace, he could still speak his mind.
Since her younger sister had followed such a person, she was relieved. As for the Star Luo Imperial Family, they could only swallow their anger and endure this silent loss.
“Hey! Zhu Zhuyun! Did you hear me? I’m telling you, don’t even think about Bai Yu, otherwise… otherwise, I will definitely make you regret it!”
Seeing Zhu Zhuyun looking as if she was daydreaming, Zhu Zhuqing felt her chest swell with anger. She immediately grabbed her collar and shook her vigorously.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t accept Bai Yu having other women; he already had so many, a few more wouldn’t matter. But if that person was Zhu Zhuyun, she found it a bit unbearable.
It wasn’t that she had any issues with her elder sister… well, fine! She did have issues! The thought of having to constantly face her elder sister in the future made her feel completely uncomfortable!
Shaken back to her senses, Zhu Zhuyun waved her hand at Zhu Zhuqing, who looked as if she wanted to bite her, and said somewhat casually,
“Tsk, why are you guarding your food now? You weren’t like this before. Didn’t you always show off good things to me and then share some with me?
Now that you’ve found a good man, have you forgotten your own elder sister?”
“However, if that’s the case, you’ll have to keep a close eye on your man, or he might just be seduced away by me one day.”
Hearing Zhu Zhuyun’s words, Zhu Zhuqing’s face alternated between green and pale. Zhu Zhuyun’s shameless demeanor completely surpassed her imagination.
However, what made Zhu Zhuqing even more uncomfortable was that her thoughts at this moment had actually changed quite a bit. She felt that if Zhu Zhuyun followed Bai Yu, it might not be a bad thing.
The reason she thought this wasn’t because Zhu Zhuyun said she was guarding her food, but because she remembered something: when they were chatting earlier, Bai Yu had said he would make a move on Star Luo in the future.
Although she hadn’t asked for specific details, since Bai Yu had said it, the scope of this action would definitely not be simple, and it might even lead to Star Luo’s downfall.
If that were truly the case, with her presence, the Zhu family should be safe, but her elder sister was different. Zhu Zhuyun was a Crown Prince Consort, and in the future, she might even become a Crown Princess or even Empress.
If Star Luo were to fall, her elder sister’s fate would definitely not be good.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing’s pupils contracted. Although Zhu Zhuyun always teased her like a child, which made her very angry.
But this didn't mean she could accept her elder sister dying. Even if she could ask Bai Yu to save her elder sister's life, her life would still be very difficult afterwards.
Zhu Zhuqing then pulled Zhu Zhuyun off the bed and dragged her outside.
“It’s so late, where are you taking me? You’re not so angry that you want to find a place to murder your elder sister to silence her, are you?”
Zhu Zhuyun’s eyes held a hint of confusion. She suddenly couldn’t understand what Zhu Zhuqing wanted to do, but in this situation, she still joked a bit.
As for murder to silence, Zhu Zhuyun herself didn’t believe it, because she had long seen that her younger sister didn’t hate her at all, and her harsh words were just a sisterly spat.
And hearing Zhu Zhuyun’s words, Zhu Zhuqing’s mouth twitched. Really, if this wasn't her elder sister, she would truly want to murder her to silence her!
She had to admit, when it came to annoying people, she and Bai Yu were quite a match.
However, Zhu Zhuqing did not answer Zhu Zhuyun’s question. Instead, she took her to a hotel outside and opened a room.
“Don’t leave. Just wait here. I’m going out for a bit and will be right back.”
“Ah?”
Zhu Zhuyun blinked her eyes. She was truly bewildered now, not knowing what her younger sister was up to.
But before she could even ask, Zhu Zhuqing ran out, leaving her alone here.
“Strange, what’s going on? Why did Zhuqing bring me here?”
Zhu Zhuyun tapped her fingers on the table, frowning and pondering for a long time, but still couldn’t figure it out.
And Zhu Zhuqing, after leaving the hotel, went all the way to the foot of the Spirit Holy Mountain, and handed the letter she had prepared on the way to the guard guarding the mountain.
“Please hand this over to your Spirit Hall Saint Child. Time is a bit tight, so please be as quick as possible.”
“Yes, Your Excellency! Your subordinate will go to the Saint Child Hall now and hand it over to His Highness.”
The guard bowed to Zhu Zhuqing, then quickly left with the letter.
These days, Bai Yu had often taken Zhu Zhuqing and the others up the mountain. These guards were already very familiar with the appearances of Zhu Zhuqing and the others.
Moreover, their identities were already an open secret, which was why these guards treated Zhu Zhuqing with extreme respect and did not question anything she instructed.
After seeing the guard go to deliver the letter, Zhu Zhuqing did not wait there but left directly.
In the Saint Child Hall, Bai Yu was already preparing to embrace Ah Yin and rest, but the sudden letter completely disrupted his plans.
After reading the contents of the letter, Bai Yu’s eyes became very strange, and then he got up and walked down the mountain.
“What is Zhuqing up to? In the middle of the night, she’s asking me to go to a hotel? If I didn’t recognize her handwriting, I would have thought this was Yue’er impersonating her.”
“Although this isn’t like Zhuqing’s personality, I still have to go and see. Sigh, a born workaholic!”
Bai Yu muttered to himself as he walked, and finally, he didn’t know what he thought of, but a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
When Bai Yu arrived at the hotel, knocked on the room door written on the letter, and saw the person inside, his body directly leaned back, his face full of surprise.
“Star Luo’s Zhu Zhuyun? Why are you here? Where’s Zhuqing? Is she also in the room?”
And Zhu Zhuyun, seeing Bai Yu, also widened her eyes in surprise. When she heard someone knocking on the door just now, she thought Zhuqing had returned.
Unexpectedly, upon opening the door, it was actually the Spirit Hall Saint Child, and from his words, it seemed he had been tricked by her younger sister?
