The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl Chapter 1532: Shu Yu Guessed Them All

Qiuju’s face turned pale.

However, Shu Yu hadn’t finished speaking, "Let guess, why did you do this? Were you trying to make a scene by bumping into soone, hoping to start an argunt and drag it out for at least half an hour? This way, when you got back, Chen Ji would be so hungry he’d eat the instant noodles, right?"

"And at that ti, you were still outside arguing with people, making sure everyone around knew about it. You had so many witnesses proving you were outside at three-quarters past seven, and you didn’t return ho until late, creating a perfect alibi. Plus, you had ample ti for Chen Ji to eat the arsenic out of hunger."

"But you didn’t expect to run into . You didn’t dare argue with , so you said a few words and quickly ran away. You didn’t look for anyone else after that either, because bumping into a second person would be too suspicious."

"However, your luck wasn’t bad. By the ti you got back, Chen Ji had already died at half past seven."

Qiuju almost couldn’t stay on her knees, looking at Shu Yu as if she were looking at sothing terrifying.

She realized that her intentions were laid bare in front of Shu Yu, without a single mistake.

Cold sweat poured more fiercely; Qiuju wasn’t a person with much composure. She might have so skills in household battles, but here in the courtroom, with all the sches exposed, she had no idea what to do.

Lord Xie’s eyes widened, imdiately ordering to enforce punishnt.

A few boards struck, and Qiuju couldn’t endure them, quickly confessing.

She almost cried out loud, "It was , I killed him." She had to confess, or she might be beaten to death on the spot without waiting for a conviction.

Scholar Chen stared at her viciously, "Why? What did my father do to you that you had to kill him? You venomous woman."

Qiuju lay on the bench, raising her sweat-soaked face, her gaze also fierce and angry, "Shut up, why did I kill him? Hahaha, he was about to gift to soone else, why shouldn’t I kill him?"

"What, what did you say?"

Qiuju took a couple of breaths, "That old beast of a father of yours, trying to forge connections with nobility, but he didn’t have anything worthwhile, so he set his sights on . He actually wanted to gift to an old man, to make the Chen Family thrive? Ha, and to think he was a well-read scholar, instead of focusing on his studies, he only thought of these crooked paths. He was going to harm , why shouldn’t I strike first?"

Scholar Chen stepped back two steps, "My father was going to gift you to soone? No, that’s impossible."

"Look, he didn’t even dare tell you. He only planned to strike first, directly gifting away, and once it’s a done deal, even if you’re angry, it wouldn’t matter. No, you’re like your father, able to rise to power, but you wouldn’t care about a concubine like , right?"

Scholar Chen felt inexplicably guilty after hearing this, because Qiuju was right, he didn’t care about a concubine.

Lord Xie ordered Scholar Chen to be pulled aside, continuing the interrogation, "You say Chen Ji wanted to gift you to soone. Do you know who that person is, and where they are now?"

Qiuju was in pain, speaking with difficulty, "I don’t know, I’ve never seen that person. It’s just one day that old beast was so happy, had a bit of drink, and when I went to clear the table, he drunkenly asked if I was willing to follow soone else for a better life for the Chen Family."
