Chapter 913: It’s Obvious that he’s here to Support her!

…

“Ah!”

“Why are they using force?!”

“Stop it! Ah!”

“…”

The guards were all well-trained men. Naturally, they had some muscles.

Those who spoke vile words towards Qiao Qing now screamed in pain as their faces got slapped.

It was Jun Yexuan who ordered these people just then. So the crowd was confused as to who’s guards these men were.

Qiao Qing and the others moved forward as the guards paved out a safe path for them.

Up there through the gate, there were even more people standing around – enough to make the group speechless.

The unexpected combination of Qiao Qing and Quan Zexi petrified some people.

Once they realized what was happening, they reacted by showing respect towards Quan Zexi and also by cursing at Qiao Qing. The scene turned chaotic yet again.

Seeing this, Xia Houshang’s subordinate dashed to his master, who was kneeling in front of her father’s casket, “Miss, Qiao Qing is here.”

Jiang Che froze while Xia Houshang was ecstatic, “Why aren’t you ordering people to restrain her?!”

The subordinate knelt down, “Qiao Qing came with Duke Quan.”

“What did you say?!” Yin Lei, who was standing on the side, was more than alarmed, “Quan Zexi?!”

The subordinate nodded, “Yes, sir.”

“What’s he doing here?!” Yin Lei felt more than unsettled.

“I have no idea.”

Xia Houshang felt much disdain towards the way Yin Lei reacted. Why was he acting like a rat who just saw a cat?

After she silently evaluated the situation, she asked her subordinate, “They came together? Are you sure? What kind of condition is Qiao Qing in? Is she in handcuffs?”

The subordinate said, “They came together. She’s not in handcuffs.”

How strange. She thought Quan Zexi captured her and therefore, she should be under restrains.

If that wasn’t the case, why would these two unrelated people show up together?

As she pondered this, Qiao Qing and the others came into her view.

The cold look on Qiao Qing’s face intensified the hatred Xia Houshang felt. With no time to think it through, she shouted, “Get her here!”

Her people were about to act when Quan Zexi shouted at them to stop, “Wait a minute!”

Everyone watching froze and soon started to mumble.

“Why’s the Duke helping Qiao Qing?”

“I don’t know. I thought he caught her and brought her over.”

“She’s not acting like a captured prisoner.”

“Let’s observe first.”

“…”

Xia Houshang was very much confused, “Duke Quan, what’s the meaning of this? My father’s corpse is right here! You want to protect the person who did this?!”

Quan Zexi’s face was hidden under his mask. His eyes alone, however, showed much coldness.

“How do you know Qiao Qing killed your father? Where’s the evidence?”

The crowds froze. Some people started to think this through.

“That’s true. The news reported that Qiao Qing killed the Duke but there was no evidence stated!”

“But Ms. Xia is so confident about it. No way it’s not true?”

“Am I the only person questioning the relationship between Qiao Qing and Duke Quan? It’s obvious that he’s here to support her!”

“…”

The conversations around Xia Houshang made her a little worried.

She did her best to control her facial expression as she refused to back down. Then, she said, “Who else could it be if not her? Recently, only Qiao Qing managed to make enemies with my family.. She’s also the only person who is capable of sneaking into my home to kill my father!”
