Su Bai rushed back to the palace where Chen Jieyu was hugging a pillow and sobbing so hard that she couldn't catch her breath.
No matter how the palace maids tried to console her, it was of no use.
As soon as Su Bai entered, Chen Jieyu cried even louder.
"You all may leave now," Su Bai dismissed everyone.
At that moment, Chen Jieyu was still whimpering quietly; Su Bai sat down beside her bed. "I just went to your brother's residence."
She referred to herself with the word "I."
Chen Jieyu's body trembled, and then tears streamed down as if they cost nothing.
Seeing her reaction, Su Bai continued, "He's gone missing."
Chen Jieyu burst into loud cries.
"The one who touched him is the same one who beat you, right?"
Chen Jieyu nodded and then immediately shook her head.
Chen Jieyu didn't trust Su Bai.
Or rather, she didn't trust anyone at that moment.
Everyone seemed like they were sent by Concubine Mei to torment her.
