"Young master, you are back." The housekeeper and two maids greeted Li Yejue at the door. Li Yejue nodded slightly, took off his school uniform suit jacket, and handed it to the maid on the side. The maid quickly answered.

Pass.

"Where is Chen?" Li Yejue asked the housekeeper. Usually, Li Yechen would return to the villa earlier than him, but today, he was not seen.

"The second young master will not be back today." The housekeeper replied respectfully. As housekeepers who have left home, they must answer truthfully whatever the master says.

Li Yejue nodded. He was not interested in asking where Li Yechen had gone. What he was interested in knowing now was Xia Gongchun. He turned back to the stairs and walked up a few stairs before turning back and asking the housekeeper: "She

Where?"

The housekeeper was stunned, and realized that she was referring to Xia Gongjun, and flashed a hint of uneasiness: "The lady is in the room."

When Li Yejue came to Xia Gongchun's door, he heard slight sobbing and moans of pain inside. He paused in his steps and opened the door of Xia Gongchun's room. When he saw her, he couldn't help but be startled.

Xia Gongchun's small body was huddled in a small corner. She hugged her knees with her hands. Her clothes were torn to pieces, and there were some rags left on the ground. Her jade-white arms and legs were all covered with blood.

It was a purple pinch mark, and it was easy to see that Xia Gongjun had been abused before he came back.

Her amber eyes were looking ahead distractedly, without any focus, and were full of fear and helpless eyes. There were still two lines of tears on her cheeks, and her waist-length hair was scattered around her body.

Like a ceramic doll.

A trace of cold blood flashed through Li Yejue's black eyes. Don't think too much. The injuries on her body were caused by those maids. Oh, how dare you abuse Xia Gongjun so severely? Do you still have any doubts in their eyes?

What kind of distinction is there between superiority and inferiority?

However, when seeing Xia Gongjun being abused, shouldn't he be happy and gloating? Why does his heart hurt so much when he sees her pale face?

Li Yejue is just a twelve-year-old boy. Although he has keener feelings than adults, he is still a child after all.

Xia Gongchun was huddled in the corner. She felt someone approaching. She raised her head and looked at Li Yejue with blank eyes. The scene of her being abused by the maid just flashed through her eyes, and she shrank back.

"Are you afraid of me?" For some reason, Li Yejue was a little annoyed when he saw Xia Gongchun's behavior. He walked forward, stopped in front of Xia Gongchun, squatted down and looked at her, and then looked at the pinch marks on her body.

, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.

"Does it still hurt?" Li Yejue gently touched her scar and asked softly. Xia Gongchun's body trembled slightly, and two more lines of tears flowed from his eyes. Li Yejue moved forward and hugged her.

, letting her lean into his arms: "Be good, it's over."

Xia Gongchun stopped crying and looked up at Li Yejue, her big amber eyes full of fear and confusion. Li Yejue laughed dumbly, feeling that she had forgotten who she was: "I am your eldest brother,

Li Yejue."

Xia Gongchun lowered her head and bit her lip. After a while, she raised her head and timidly shouted to Li Yejue: "Brother Jue."

Li Yejue was stunned. These three words caused ripples in his heart. He felt that it seemed very good. Li Yejue lowered his head and saw her scars, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his heart. The person in the villa

Servant, it's time to straighten things out.

He took out the ointment from the medicine box and applied it gently on Xia Gongchun. He did not dare to use too much force for fear of hurting her. However, Xia Gongchun still frowned slightly in pain and his body trembled unconsciously.

"Okay." Li Yejue put down the ointment, helped Xia Gongchun up, let her sit on the bed, turned around and picked up a woolen sweater from the closet, and put it on Xia Gongchun's petite body, "Let's sleep for a while.

."

Xia Gongchun nodded obediently and closed her eyes. I wonder if she shed more tears today and fell asleep soon.

Looking at Xia Gongchun's sleeping face, Li Yejue's dark eyes flashed with a hint of complexity. Originally, he could have ignored the scars on her body. Originally, he could have spoken coldly to her while her father was not at home. Originally, he could have

He acquiesced to the maids who abused her, but he did not do so.

Because, he suddenly felt that he was reluctant to let go.

He was about to leave Xia Gongchun's room, but found that Li Yechen had returned. He looked up and saw Li Yejue appearing in Xia Gongchun's room. He frowned slightly, went in, and saw Xia Gongchun's exposed arm.

I felt a pinch mark in my heart and felt an involuntary pain in my heart.

Li Yechen looked at Li Yejue and glanced at him with cold eyes: "Is it you?"

Li Yejue sneered. Although Li Yechen was his biological brother and his twin, he was too impatient: "What do you think?"

Li Yechen frowned and said nothing. He was impulsive. Although he had always disliked Li Yejue, he knew that Li Yejue would not treat an eight-year-old girl like this. Besides, she was still his nominal sister.

…

"Whoever did it will have to take responsibility for what they did later." A trace of cruelty flashed in Li Yejue's eyes, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Li Yechen's purple eyes turned cold, and he immediately thought of who did it. Isn't it the maid at home?

Li Yejue and Li Yechen closed the door and went downstairs. Looking at the trembling maids below, they glanced over with cold eyes and sat on the British-style sofa in the hall. Li Yechen spoke first: "Who did it?"

"

Several maids shuddered. They knew what Li Yechen was talking about, and they mustered up the courage to say: "Second Young Master, we, we just saw that the young lady refused to put on clothes, so, so..."

"That's why you abused her, right?" Li Yechen said coldly, looking at the maids, then turning to look at the other maids who looked scared, and sneered uninhibitedly, I'm afraid, these maids are all
