Chapter 26 : Looking At Flowers From A Balcony

Xiangxiang scoffed: “You agreed to marry her because she was dying. If she wasn’t poisoned you would have never given her any consideration.”
Yu Peiyu didn’t know how to answer her.
Xiangxiang said sternly: “So you admit it! You’re the most heartless man I’ve ever seen. I want to kill you.”

Chapter 27 : The Shock

Yu Peiyu gradually woke up and saw Xu Ruoyu sitting at a table drinking wine.
Xu Ruoyu laughed: “Brother Yu, you’re awake. I was disappointed that you did not know how to drink this fine wine. You should sip and savour the wine slowly, if you drink it like how you did. You will get drunk very easily.”
Yu Peiyu knew this too, but at the time he was too sad and did care about how to drink wine.

Chapter 28 : A Mysterious Youngster

The man asked: “May I ask what your name is, sir?”
The young man smiled: “I wish I had a famous and imposing nickname, but I’m just a nameless youngster.”
Wang Yuluo coughed dryly: “This is young master Yang Zijiang, his family is an old friend of chancellor Yu.....”

Chapter 29 : A Deadly Pursuit In The Night

Yu Peiyu was trying to think of a plan, suddenly he saw Zhu Lei’Er moving swiftly to the carriage. She was agile like a cat and disappeared under the carriage in a flash. She held on to the bars beneath the carriage and rode off with the carriage.
When Yu Peiyu wanted to stop her but it was too late, she had already hid herself under the carriage.
Yu Peiyu shook his head and thought that this girl was really too bold for words.

Chapter 30 : An Unforeseen Disaster

There were no visible wounds, how did he die.
Yu Peiyu stayed silent after awhile he asked Zhu Lei’Er: “Was he poisoned?”
Zhu Lei’Er examined the pot of tea on the table; she tasted a bit and shook her head.
Yu Peiyu asked: “There is no poison in the tea?”
Zhu Lei’Er shook her head and said: “None.”
