Then, Su Liu watched the dolls' practice for a while. During this period, he and Sun Liansheng talked about many other moves, and the conversation was quite harmonious. Su Liu also generously shared his experience in learning jujitsu.

"I think Sun Liansheng is quite kind, not as aloof and aloof as you said."

On the way back to the room, Su Liu couldn't help but sigh.

Shen Luochen was silent for a moment before speaking:

"After all, so many years have passed, and people's temperament will always change."

Hearing this, Su Liu also nodded thoughtfully. Perhaps, something did happen during these years in the General's Mansion.

Back in the room, Qingbi and Su Tao were both there. They seemed to be refusing to give in to each other, as if there was a conflict.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I say that the room does not need to be cleaned?" Su Liu frowned and walked over.

Seeing her, Su Tao turned around first, holding Qingbi's hand with one hand and shouted:

"Sister! There is something wrong with this person!"

"What's going on?" Su Liu's brows knitted together, becoming increasingly confused about the situation.

Su Tao glared at Qingbi and said confidently: "I just saw Qingbi sneaking into the room, and I just followed her. She must be trying to steal something!"

Upon hearing Su Tao's accusation, Qingbi was not to be outdone. She looked at Su Tao, her eyes wide open, and retorted loudly: "You're talking nonsense! I didn't steal anything at all. You insisted on following me here!"

The two of them insisted on their own opinions and started arguing with each other, making the atmosphere at the scene very tense for a while.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Su Liu suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. There were only two maids in her yard. Without a third person, it was impossible to tell who was telling the truth. There were no surveillance cameras in this era.

Moreover, no one of these two people could be completely trusted by her.

Qingbi used to be Wen Ruoshui's personal maid, so we don't rule out the possibility that the two of them may still interact in private. Not to mention Su Tao. With her former green tea virtues, she might be trying to squeeze Qing Bi away on purpose.

She silently opened the distance between the two of them, and after thinking about it again and again, she finally said:

"Okay, I believe Qingbi won't steal anything."

In the end, she chose to side with Qingbi. After all, he wanted to compensate her with valuable jewelry before, but she didn't accept it, which shows that he is not a money-grubbing person.

Moreover, her room was not locked on weekdays. If she really wanted to steal something, she would have done it long ago.

"Sister!" Su Tao frowned, looking anxious, "I know you never trust me, but this time it's true!"

"Thank you, Miss Second, for trusting me." A look of joy appeared on Qingbi's face, and she saluted Su Liu.

She seemed to be relieved. When she looked at Su Tao, her eyes were quite proud and she didn't say much.

However, this move made Su Liu suspicious again.

Qingbi also said just now that Su Tao pulled her into the room. After he expressed his trust in her, he did not mention the matter again, which was somewhat contrary to ordinary people's logic.

Seeing that things seemed irreversible, Su Tao also sighed softly, with a somewhat depressed expression:

"Sister, I have already warned you. I still hope you will be careful."

After that, she walked out of the room without looking back.

Suddenly, only Su Liu and Qingbi were left in the room, and the atmosphere was surprisingly quiet. Su Liu's face was as gloomy as a dark cloud, but he asked unintentionally:

"Qingbi, do you think it is really okay to let her go like this?"

"What?" Qingbi seemed to be lost in thought just now. When she called him like this, he was suddenly startled.

Then she came to her senses and blurted out without much thought:

"She slandered me, so of course she has no shame to stay here."

Su Liu turned his head and looked straight at her, his eyes like a bottomless pool, which made people feel chilly.

"But, didn't you just say that she tried to enter my room? As my personal maid, you shouldn't first find out what her purpose was?"

Her voice was very calm, but Qingbi was frightened and quickly answered:

"The second young lady is right, I will call her back now." As she said that, she prepared to go out in a panic.

Su Liu grabbed her from behind and said in a cold tone:

"Actually, it was you who slandered her, right?"

Qingbi trembled all over, knowing that the matter could no longer be hidden. She seemed to have lost all strength and collapsed to the ground with a "pop".

Judging from this reaction, Su Liu's guess was almost correct.

"Why?" Su Liu looked at her with disbelief on his face and looked at her sadly.

At first, she rescued this little girl from Wen Ruoshui and took her as her personal maid. She thought that she could at least be friendly with her, but she didn't expect to be betrayed.

Qingbi cried sadly, tears falling from her eyes. She tried to stand up, but failed in the end.

"Second young lady, there is nothing Qingbi can do." She sobbed and said intermittently, "This servant is really desperate. The eldest lady knows where my mother and brother live and threatens their lives. All I can do is sorry." Miss’s matter…”

"So, it was Wen Ruoshui who asked you to do this." Su Liu frowned, feeling that this result was not unexpected.

Qingbi nodded, crying until she was out of breath, then gently grabbed Su Liu's skirt and knelt in front of her.

"Qingbi knows that the second lady is kind to the slave, but now she has no face to face the second lady... Why not, the second lady kills the slave!"

When she said the last sentence, she raised her head, her face full of guilt and determination.

It was obvious that she was really in pain. Su Liu felt soft in her heart, sighed, and reached out to help her up.

"I won't kill you, so please stop crying first."

She took out a handkerchief from her arms, gently wiped Qingbi's tears, and asked, "Tell me first what exactly Wen Ruoshui asked you to do, okay?"

Qingbi was supported by her and stood up tremblingly.

Su Liu was worried that she still couldn't support it, so he simply helped her sit beside the bed and poured her a cup of tea.

After taking a big sip of tea, Qingbi seemed to have finally calmed down a bit, and said with choked sobs:

"My servant doesn't know the real purpose of the eldest lady. She just ordered me to search the second lady's room and bring her back all the letters and the like."

Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she was still crying when she spoke.

"But before I could find anything, I was discovered by Su Tao."
