Chapter 1913: Capítulo 1913: Chapter 1916

“Look at you, I called them here to explain, but what’s the use of hitting them so hard?”

Seeing Nangong Yun being harshly hit by Bei Qingyue, the Old Madam immediately softened.

She forgot that it was she herself who had previously ordered them to be knocked unconscious at Youyang Pavilion.

Bei Qingyue glared at Nangong Yun and said, “Did you hear me? Tell the whole story from beginning to end.”

When saying “whole story,” she deliberately emphasized her tone.

Nangong Yun paused for a moment, immediately understanding.

Although the slap from her mother hurt her, it at least had an effect on the Old Madam.

Her mother was very meticulous, and Nangong Yun naturally understood.

However, for a moment, she didn’t know how to begin.

She had no idea what really happened between her and Bei Zicheng.

She was suddenly knocked unconscious, and when she woke up, she was in an embrace with Bei Zicheng.

Both of them had been drugged, completely unable to control themselves.

She suspected it might be Baili Xia’s doing, but had no evidence to support it.

What’s more, she was the one who first instigated Bei Zicheng to set up Baili Xia.

After some thought, she finally spoke, “I was walking on the road when suddenly someone knocked me out from behind, and when I woke up, I was already…”

She glanced at Bei Zicheng, the image of that moment flashing in her mind, making her blush instantly, too embarrassed to continue.

Bei Zicheng added, “Yes, I was the same, suddenly knocked out, and ended up like this.”

“I really don’t know who did this.”

Bei Qingyue cursed inwardly, blaming Nangong Yun for being ungrateful.

Such an explanation without a single witness, how could the Old Madam possibly believe them easily?

Sure enough, after hearing their words, the Old Madam’s expression was far from pleasant.

“Who would believe such an explanation? Would anyone harm you for no reason?”

Having experienced many storms, how could these matters escape her notice?

“If you don’t honestly tell the truth, don’t blame me for not considering you as part of the Bei Family.”

The Old Madam’s words were heavy, terrifying Nangong Yun.

“Grandma, really, I’m not lying, I was truly knocked out, and what happened afterward, I don’t know.”

“Cousin Zicheng, say something, do you know the reason?”

At this moment, she disregarded her embarrassment, turning to Bei Zicheng, wanting him to share some of the pressure.

Bei Zicheng was very upset, dealing with a subordinate of Mu Xiaojiu should not have led to such trouble.

Regarding Mu Xiaojiu, he didn’t care, but in the Bei Family, he had to consider the Old Madam.

He looked at the Old Madam, firmly saying, “Grandma, I wouldn’t dare hide anything about this matter.”

“Like my cousin Yun, I too was attacked and knocked unconscious, otherwise how could we do such a thing.”

Bei Shengri also spoke up, “Mom, since Zicheng also said so, it seems this was indeed a deliberate setup by someone.”

“Pressuring them like this is useless, it’s better to investigate who is behind it.”

“They’re both so injured, why not take them back for treatment first.”

His words clearly showed he was protecting Bei Zicheng.

The Old Madam wouldn’t be so easily swayed.

“This matter damages our Bei Family’s reputation, it cannot be let go so easily.”

After pondering for a while, she decided, “Punish them by confining them in the dungeon until the cause is found, they are not allowed to come out.”

This decision immediately terrified both Nangong Yun and Bei Zicheng!
