74 Shocked
Probably because she had been frightened during the day, Yu Pingping started to have a fever at night and kept talking nonsense.
This frightened Mrs. Jiang and Yu Kangtai.
They hurriedly sent for the physician.
The commotion was so loud that even Yu Sheng woke up. Knowing that his sister was sick, he quickly changed his clothes and went to the small courtyard where his sister lived.
In the middle of the night, the entire Xu residence was brightly lit.
Yu Kangtai stood by the bed worriedly and looked at his younger daughter’s flushed cheeks.
After the physician finished taking her pulse, Yu Kangtai hurriedly asked.
“How’s that?”
The physician said truthfully, “Your daughter was frightened and her emotions were fluctuating too much. In addition, she caught a cold, which caused her to have a high fever. I’ll prescribe her a medicine first and see if she can get better.”
Yu Kangtai was not at home during the day and did not know that Yu Pingping had fought with someone.
He immediately looked at Mrs. Jiang and asked, “Why was she frightened for no reason?”
Mrs. Jiang pursed her lips, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Although Yu Pingping repeatedly guaranteed that he was not bullied by Yu Niaoniao, Mrs. Jiang still felt that Yu Fan’s injury was related to her.
Otherwise, why did the two of them go to the tea shop together and only return with Yu Fan injured while Yu Niaoniao was safe and sound?
Yu Kangtai urged, “Just say it!”
Mrs. Jiang gritted her teeth and said her guess.
“Yu Pingping arranged to meet a friend at the tea shop today. When she returned, she was covered in injuries. I asked her who hit her, but she refused to tell me. However, I heard that Niaoniao went to that tea shop today as well. She came back with Pingping.”
Yu Kangtai’s anger surged to the top of his head as he cursed.
“What’s wrong with her? She even dared to hit her sister!”
Yu Sheng, who had been silent, could not help but say.
“Maybe they just happened to bump into each other at the tea shop and came back together. Sister doesn’t seem like the type to hit anyone…”
Mrs. Jiang interrupted her. “How can there be such a coincidence? There are so many tea houses in the city. Why did they choose the same one? Taking a step back, even if they really met by chance, why was Pingping the only one who was injured Didn’t Niaoniao help her sister when she saw her being bullied?”
Yu Sheng was speechless.
Yu Kangtai felt that Mrs. Jiang’s words made sense.
No matter what, Yu Niaoniao had something to do with Yu Pingping being bullied!
Previously, Yu Niaoniao was willful and reckless, but Yu Kangtai endured it.
But not now.
She should never have hit her own sister.
This had crossed Yu Kangtai’s bottom line.
Yu Kangtai asked Mrs. Jiang to stay behind to take care of Yu Pingping while he led his men to the Green Jade Residence aggressively.
Yu Niaoniao was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly woken up. Her mind was a little confused.
She rubbed her eyes and asked in a muffled voice.
“What happened?”
Dang Gui said anxiously as she put the clothes on her, “Master is here. He said he wants to see you immediately.”
Yu Niaoniao frowned and complained unhappily.
“Can’t he wait until tomorrow? Why does he have to disturb my sleep? Isn’t he wicked?”
Dang Gui coaxed nicely, “Master is already waiting outside the house. Get up quickly. We’ll continue sleeping later.”
Yu Niaoniao put on her clothes and casually tied her long hair with a headband. She walked out of the door slowly.
There were already many people standing in the small courtyard.
The leader was Yu Kangtai.
He clasped his hands behind his back and frowned. His eyes were blazing with anger.
“Traitorous girl! Kneel!”
