Seeing his sister struck by Shen Yiru, Li Wangzhou was beside himself with rage. However, with Sun Jingyou still in his arms, he could not act. He could only glare at Shen Yiru and bark, "You are truly vicious. Guards, drag Qingyao away and beat her to death."
As soon as he finished speaking, two servants stepped forward to seize Qingyao.
"Let’s see who dares," Shen Yiru said, stepping forward to shield her maid. She turned her gaze to Li Wangzhou. "Li Wangzhou, you came sprinting over the moment Sun Jingyou fell. Does that not imply you were watching from nearby when the conflict began? If so, you must have seen exactly how she fell. She tipped backward rapidly and landed lightly—it seems Sun Jingyou’s martial arts skills are quite impressive. Li Wangzhou, you have been training since childhood; surely you can tell how severe her fall truly was?"
