Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Tell me!” Su Jun’s tone was vicious as he glared at Su Ren.

Su Ren hesitated a few times as if she struggled to piece together her sentence. She stammered, “I-I saw Su Hao’s sister sneakily enter the room just now. I paid no attention to her at first, but after a while, I heard one of the puppies barking, and I thought that it was strange so…”

Su Ren looked at the pale Su Qian and continued, “I-I saw her running out after that, so I brought Lu Wei with me to investigate, and the moment I came in, I saw that the puppy was dead.”

“What are you talking about?! I never went into that room!” Su Qian widened her eyes and explained helplessly.

“L didn’t suspect you at first, but I didn’t think that you would call Uncle Chen on purpose when you saw me go in. I didn’t expect you to feel such bitterness toward me…”

Su Ren suddenly burst into tears and cried out in grievance and sadness. This weak and innocent look made people believe that Su Qian had set her up on purpose.

Su Jun had always had a bad impression of Second Uncle’s children. After hearing Su Ren’s words, his face darkened. He ordered the servants to seize Su Qian.

Su Qian sighed but didn’t resist, as if she had already accepted her fate.

Su Hao was anxious, so he took two steps forward and shouted, “Why would we kill the puppy for no reason? What right do you have to blame my sister?”

“The puppies have been staying in our house for so many days. Isn’t it strange that something bad happened the moment you two arrived?” Su Ren retorted, her emotions flaring up.

Su Hao was speechless. He glared disdainfully at Su Ren but was held back by his sister, Su Qian. Su Hao’s body stiffened as he stood beside his sister.

Although Su Qian and Su Hao were not very likable, they had a deep relationship with each other.

Su Ren stood at the sidelines and enjoyed the show. When she saw this situation, she pondered for a while and said, “Big Brother, if I were you, I wouldn’t believe them. They’re not good people. Instead of asking them, why don’t we ask Butler Chen?”

“Who said that I believe what they said?” Su Jun said coldly. With a wave, the servants immediately grabbed Su Qian and Su Hao. “I believe that the people of the Su family would not do such a thing. The only suspects are you guys.”

Upon hearing this, Su Qian’s eyes darkened. It was clear that Su Jun did not treat the twins as members of the Su family. He was treating Su Qian and Su Hao like unwanted trash.

At the thought of this, Su Qian gritted her teeth and lowered her head, concealing the hatred and anger in her eyes.

“Butler Chen, tell me in detail what happened,” Su Jun expressionlessly said while holding the little girl in his arms.

The little girl in his arms had already stopped crying. She was lying quietly on Su Jun’s shoulder, not saying a word.

“At around 9 am, I went to the botanical garden nearby to pick out ornamental plants for the season. At the same time, four maids went out to buy vegetables together. Two doormen helped them unload the goods at the door. The other maids were all busy in the small building or busy working at the

garden…” Chen Shun answered as he was in deep thought.

“So there was no one in the Su family home the whole morning?” Su Jun asked with a frown.

This was too much of a coincidence.

“Yes, I just went out not long ago. Around 9:45, I received a call from Miss Su Qian. She wanted me to come back as soon as possible. I asked her what had happened, but she couldn’t explain it. I couldn’t put my mind at ease, so I hurried back,” Chen Shun glanced at his phone as he said thoughtfully.

“Wait, 9:45? So all this took place earlier than Su Ren said? Does this mean that Su Qian told Butler Chen in advance that she was going to do something bad?” Su Jun snapped his fingers and raised his head as he said that.

‘When Su Qian heard this, she suddenly raised her head.

But how could Su Qian have done these things ahead of time? Could it be that her plan had been leaked?

Thinking of this, Su Ren turned her head and glanced at the panicked Lu Wei. Lu Wei lowered her head and trembled slightly, not noticing Su Ren’s gaze.

$u Jun had also noticed this. He looked at Su Qian with a puzzled gaze as if he was waiting for her explanation.

Everyone stared at Su Qian.. She opened her mouth and said with uncertainty and worry, “Big Brother, if I could prove my innocence, will you protect my brother and me in the future?”
