May The Rest Of My Life Be Sweet To You ( Machine Translation )-Chapter 38 - Chapter 38, punishment

"That depends on the recovery of the injury. If the injury heals successfully, he will be able to move normally and will be fine. If it doesn't..." The doctor felt a chill on his back, as if he had been targeted by a spectral visitor.

"Sir, do you take me as a fool? GET LOST!"

Li Ang was surrounded by a dark cloud. Could his mother be any more foolish? How could she ask such questions in front of all these people?

The doctor was so scared that he ran away as quick as a flash. He only wished he had four legs so he could move faster!

Roland could not help but feel worried. A thought flashed through her mind. She had to get her son to try out his functions no matter what...

"Where's Qin Sheng? Come out NOW!" Li Ang asked coldly. He did not know what his mother was thinking, acting the way she was.

"Sir, Qin Sheng was punished in the dining room," He Fen said quickly.

"Kneeling? Was she left to kneel?" Li Ang asked.

"No, she's looking for evidence that she did not harm you!" He Fen deliberately emphasized her tone. She hoped that Li Ang would be angry and kick the girl out of the house.

"It has been half an hour and she still hasn't found any evidence. What can she actually find? Don't waste my time and bring her here to pay for my debt!" Li Ang shouted his words viciously.

Qin Sheng followed Gong Mochen to the living room door and heard Li Ang's words.

The perverted Duke still wanted her to pay for her debt? Could his burnt lipstick still be used?

Gong Mochen strode in and sat on the sofa with a cold expression on his face. "Li Ang, you are thinking about this too much."

Li Ang raised his eyebrows and his gaze landed on Qin Sheng. "I don't think I am! She must be punished severely!'

Qin Sheng held the magnet and rolled her eyes. Gong Mochen was trying to defend her. At least someone in this house was... To be honest, that was enough for her. It was a beautiful thing.

'I am not alone, though I sometimes feel I am in this place,' she thought, clenching the magnet tighter.

She was waiting for the right moment to retort. The right moment to brandish her findings. The smugness and sneers would soon be wiped off all their faces!

Qin Yunting glanced at the magnet and her face suddenly turned pale. Fortunately, she was sitting on the sofa by the door. She quietly got up and walked out of the living room to go straight to Qiu Hui's room.

Qin Sheng threw the magnet to Li Ang. "And you said I wouldn't find any evidence! Here's your evidence!"

Li Ang took the magnet and looked at it. There was a needle stuck to the black magnet. He frowned. "Are you saying that someone stabbed you with this needle?"

"Yes. Qiu Hui was standing behind me at that time," Qin Sheng said.

Zheng Min's lips trembled. "Don't frame a good person! You just took a needle and said that Qiu Hui stabbed you. Who knows if this needle is yours?"

Qin Sheng smiled helplessly "Second aunt, if you really want to go down that route then let's go! It's impossible for me to have a needle like this. The whole family knows that I don't know how to use a needle and thread. Not to mention that I don't have them in my room. Even my uncle's room doesn't have needles.

"Moreover, how would I know that my cousin would bring soup to the Duke? Could I have foreseen it and prepared that needle in advance just to pour hot soup all over Li Ang's body? I don't think so!"

Roland understood. "Qin Sheng has a point. Bring Qiu Hui to me. I want to interrogate her personally!"

He Fen glanced at Sister Yu, who was standing beside her. "Go and bring Qiu Hui here."

"Yes, I'll go now." Sister Yu left the living room.

Sister Yu headed in the direction of the maid's room.

In the maid's room, Qin Yunting twisted Qiu Hui's arm. "Why are you so useless! You threw that needle on the ground?"

Qiu Hui cried, "Miss, I threw the needle away because I was afraid that someone would find it on my person! How would I know that Qin Sheng would find it!"

"IDIOT! Why wouldn't you throw it in a pot or something? You didn't believe Qin Sheng would think of looking for it? You should've thrown the needle into a pot!" Qin Yunting shouted angrily.

She had secretly told Qiu Hui that when she was carrying the soup for Li Ang, she was to use the needle to stab Qin Sheng, as who wouldn't move their arms if they were stabbed? She'd been sure that Qin Sheng would touch her and spill the steaming soup on the Duke.

Sure enough, everything went according to her plan. Everyone believed that Qin Sheng deliberately pushed her to splash Li Ang. The Dukle had been scalded. Roland abandoned Qin Sheng and wanted Li Ang to marry her. It had been a fool proof plan. Until now...

Qin Sheng had found the d*mn needle! Not only could she prove her innocence, but she could also find out that Qiu Hui was ordered by her to carry out the deed. How could she not be angry with Qiu Hui?

Qiu Hui cried out in pain. Qin Yunting tightened her grip on the maid. "You should've thrown it in a flower pot! Didn't you realise Qin Sheng would know to look for it?"

No matter where Qiu Hui threw it, as long as Qin Sheng wanted to find it, she would be able to find it. No matter how big the dining room was, it had a limited area. If she didn't throw it, Qin Sheng wouldn't have been able to find it, however, if she hadn't thrown it, when Roland searched her body, she would've found it even faster!

She didn't feel that there was a problem with her handling of it. She could only say that there was a problem with her miss's overall plan.

Qin Yunting was so angry that she kicked Qiu Hui's leg. "How dare you! The problem isn't that that you threw it, it's that you threw it in the wrong place. With how nervous Roland was about Li Ang, Qin Sheng would've been severely punished by now!"

Qiu Hui choked with sobs and didn't dare to retort. She was afraid that Qin Yunting would beat her even harder.

Sister Yu pushed the door open and walked in. "Miss Yunting, Mrs Roland wants to bring Qiu Hui for interrogation!"

Qin Yunting panicked. "Then what should we do? We can't let this idiot go to Roland. What if she says something wrong?"

"Mrs Roland wants to interrogate Qiu Hui... If we don't let Qiu Hui go, wouldn't Mrs. Roland think that we're afraid to see her? Miss, you go out first. Don't worry, I'm here for you!"

Qin Yunting trusted Sister Yu very much. This old woman had been a maid for He Fen for 30 years and had never made any mistakes. She turned around and walked out of the room, heading back to the living room to wait for the results.

Not long after, Sister Yu brought Qiu Hui into the living room and said respectfully, "Mrs Roland, Qiu Hui is here."

Without waiting for Roland to speak, Qiu Hui knelt down.

"I stabbed Miss Qin Sheng with a needle. Please punish me, Mrs Roland!"

Qin Yunting looked at Qiu Hui in astonishment. She did not expect her to do this. Was she going to betray her?

Roland did not expect Qiu Hui to answer so readily. "Then let me ask you, why did you stab Qin Sheng?"

Qiu Hui's tears rolled down her cheeks. "I didn't mean to stab Qin Sheng. Yes, yes..."

Qin Yunting's face turned pale again. She clenched her fists nervously. She was about to rush up and strangle Qiu Hui to death.

"Explain yourself. Why?" Qin Ze, who had been silent, asked.

"It was because I couldn't stand that Qin Sheng bullied Miss Yunting, so I wanted to stab her to avenge my Miss. But I didn't expect that Miss Qin Sheng would reach out and touch Miss Yunting, and Miss Yunting would spill the soup on Duke Li Ang.

"I beg Madam Roland not to blame Miss Yunting. Miss Yunting is a good person. It's all my fault. I'm willing to bear all the punishment!" Qiu Hui said sorrowfully.

She bullied Qin Yunting... Seriously? When did she bully Qin Yunting? Qin Sheng glared at Qiu Hui.

"Qiu Hui, tell me clearly. When did I bully my cousin?"

Qiu Hui's eyes flashed with a sinister glow...
