Liu Shimei was not curious about the Zhang family’s affairs.
It was a sudden inspiration that led her to think of something—
The information provided by Mu Jiangli probably pointed to Madam Zhang being the one who killed Liu Quan. However, because it involved complicated matters within the Jianghu, no matter how malicious Madam Zhang was, there were many things a woman of her standing couldn’t accomplish alone.
So, could the Zhang family, five years ago when they were still in the Imperial Capital, have had a hand in targeting Liu Quan?
With this thought in mind, she changed her mind and decided to have a good chat with this so-called ‘cousin’!
Seeing that she seemed willing to continue the conversation, Zhang Qingxi’s eyes lit up with joy as he said, “There’s nothing worth mentioning. Father was transferred back to the Capital and is now only a fourth-ranked official.”
He said it modestly, but the pride on his face couldn’t be concealed!
Liu Shimei snorted inwardly, ‘Fourth-ranked? And you call that ‘only’? If it weren’t for Liu Fuyun’s help in the court, your father wouldn’t even be in the sixth rank! Without any influence in the court, being transferred out of the Capital is equivalent to exile. He won’t be able to come back in this lifetime!’
But since she had made up her mind to investigate, she wouldn’t let the conversation die down and asked, “Has Lord Zhang also come today?”
“Father is still handing over his duties. Mother brought me and my sister back. We came here to pay our respects to Uncle and Aunt.” When he said this, Zhang Qingxi’s gaze practically stuck to Liu Shimei’s face.
This guy was really shameless. If her big brother saw this, he’d probably come out to break up the scene.
Even Liu Anhe couldn’t help but clear his throat and softly remind him, “Cousin Qingxi.”
But Zhang Qingxi didn’t seem to notice his own audacity. He continued, smiling, “It’s been a few years, Cousin Shimei, you’ve grown up. I always thought you would become incredibly beautiful, and now, you’ve indeed become stunning!”
Liu Shimei had always been a beauty since childhood, but when she was still in her adolescence, she hadn’t been as captivating as she was now.
Regardless, even though she was only 16, she had experienced romantic entanglements, and combined with the age when her soul was almost doubling, even if her features hadn’t fully matured, her every move exuded a mature charm.
Any man with even a slightly twisted mind would find himself having inappropriate thoughts about her.
“Cousin Qingxi.” Liu Anhe, educated as a scholar within the prestigious Liu family, frowned disapprovingly and called out, trying to divert Zhang Qingxi’s attention. He then turned to Liu Shimei and inquired, “Big Sister, weren’t you staying in the palace these days? Why have you returned today?”
He wanted to shift Zhang Qingxi’s focus away.
“Oh, just came back to get something,” Liu Shimei lied without a change in her expression.
Facing Zhang Qingxi’s lustful gaze, she felt nothing but disgust, finding him even more repulsive than Miao Fengyu, that despicable scoundrel!
However, she remained composed and asked, “So, Zhang Wan’er is here too?”
Liu Shimei didn’t have strong memories of Zhang Qingxi, but as for Zhang Wan’er…
Heh, unforgettable memories indeed!
“Wan’er is inside, talking to her aunt,” Zhang Qingxi replied.
Seeing that she no longer displayed the aloofness she had years ago, Zhang Qingxi thought, ‘Indeed, she has been deflowered. The Silly Second Prince got the first taste, but what about the future…’
It was commonly said that widows attracted gossip, but could a fool protect his wife at home?
The key question was: Could a fool satisfy a woman who had experienced love before?
In Zhang Qingxi’s mind, Liu Shimei was undoubtedly a seductive woman!
Liu Shimei couldn’t be bothered with someone as despicable as Zhang Qingxi. She had other ways to deal with him, but when it came to Zhang Wan’er…
She was genuinely interested now!
“Haven’t seen you in years. I truly want to meet this Cousin Wan’er!” she remarked, leaving those words hanging. With a hint of amusement on her lips, Liu Shimei turned around and walked into the Western Courtyard.
She had an aura of confidence and pride!
