Xiao Qirui thought to himself, “He’s really my biological father. He’s someone who can kill without even nodding his head. However, he directly pierced my heart and forced me to face the stupid things I’ve done in the past.”

“Eldest Young Master, don’t stand here. I’ve already asked. These symptoms only show up seven days before the person dies. Today is the second day. Hurry up and deal with her. When the general returns, I’ll have an explanation.”

As Xiao Tong spoke, he pulled Xiao Qirui towards the dungeon. When Xiao Qirui came back to his senses, he was already standing in the cell where Feng Manman was imprisoned.

Feng Manman’s limbs were tied to the wooden pillar and she couldn’t move. She lowered her head, and her messy black hair covered her entire face.

Perhaps because she heard the commotion, she slowly raised her head. When she saw who it was, her eyes lit up. “Brother Xiao, you’re finally here to save me. I knew you wouldn’t leave me alone.”

The next moment, her entire face contorted and her limbs struggled. “Ah..

Medicine… Give me the medicine. Brother Xiao, save me!”

Xiao Qirui noticed that there was a deep bloody mark on her wrist.

The guard in charge quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief and explained, “She’s like this every time she wakes up. I’m worried that she’ll bite her tongue and commit suicide.”

Xiao Qirui waved him off. He pursed his lips and went forward to take the cloth from Feng Manman’s mouth.

In just a short while, the hair on Feng Manman’s forehead was already drenched in sweat,

She gritted her teeth and endured the pain. “Brother Xiao, you’re here to save me, right? I didn’t do those things. Believe me.”

Only people who wanted to die would bite their tongues and commit suicide. Feng Manman clearly didn’t belong to this category.

Xiao Qirui’s eyes turned cold. “Those things? Which one are you referring to? The one where you pretended to pounce on my horse and asked me to save you, or were you talking about the assassin that night, or the one where you conspired with Aunt Qiao to set fire and steal the Xiao family’s commander’s seal?”

The last sentence was almost squeezed out of Xiao Qirui’s teeth. It could be seen that this was what he cared about the most.

Feng Manman was stunned and even forgot the pain in her body. She quickly shook her head. “No, it wasn’t me.”

Halfway through her sentence, she felt that she could not stand on her feet and quickly explained, “I was forced. As you can see, I was fed poison. If I don’t do as they say, I’ll die.”

In order to deal a blow to Feng Manman, Xiao Tong would come in and talk about the outside world when he had nothing to do. Therefore, even though she was locked in here, she knew that her master had lost.

Xiao Qirui laughed at himself. Apart from the incident with the fire, the first two things were actually just his guesses.

However, the person who did it was too cautious. He had never been able to find evidence.

Even if his so-called uncle did have such a niece, apart from meeting her once when she was born, he had never seen her again.

When Feng Manman came to look for him with the token, he didn’t suspect that someone was impersonating her.

Now that Feng Manman had admitted it herself, Xiao Qirui heaved a sigh of relief and felt that others were right. He was indeed too stupid.

Xiao Qirui’s gaze shocked Feng Manman. She said in a panic, “Brother Xiao, believe me. If I wasn’t forced, how could I have done anything to hurt you?”

“If you were really unwilling, why didn’t you tell me? You had so many opportunities to do so.”

“If I told you, they won’t let me off. Brother Xiao, I beg you… Give me the medicine. There’s medicine in the pouch.” Feng Manman cried and begged.

Her purse had been searched.

Xiao Qirui clenched his fists. “That is not a valid reason for you to harm innocent people.”

“I didn’t!” The pain of ten thousand ants eating at her heart tortured her until she couldn’t think at all. When she realized who Xiao Qirui was referring to, she gritted her teeth and said, “She’s not dead, right? Besides, I attacked her because I didn’t want her to snatch you away. I did it for you.”

After the assassination incident, Xiao Qirui agreed to almost everything Feng Manman asked for. This also caused Feng Manman to feel that Xiao Qirui had her in his heart. Yuan Yuwan was a stumbling block in their relationship, so she naturally couldn’t let her live.

Xiao Qirui closed his eyes. It was his fault.

Feng Manman still wanted to beg for help, but just as she finished speaking, she saw Xiao Qirui take out a dagger and walk towards her. Her pupils constricted. “No, you can’t…’

The ropes binding Feng Manman’s limbs broke.

Feng Manman was so frightened that she fell to the ground. When she realized that she had regained her freedom, she looked up at Xiao Qirui happily.

“Brother Xiao, you’ve forgiven me.. You don’t blame me anymore, right?”
