Chapter 753: Chapter 753: Ending up Losing Rice in an Attempt to Steal a Chicken (3)

"If it were caused by a collision, the epidermis of the wound should appear concave inward, but just now, Miss Xueying’s wound was split open in the middle. It didn’t quite look like an injury from a collision. However, it’s also possible that it was caused by muscle strain during a collision."

Huangfu Jue nodded and gestured with a raised hand for him to leave.

After the doctor and the maid had left, Will looked at Huangfu Jue with confusion.

"Sir, do you suspect that Miss Xueying injured herself?"

"Whether she injured herself or not, we’ll know tomorrow morning. Go to sleep now, and bring me the results first thing."

Will exited his room, and Huangfu Jue crossed his arms. Earlier, Gan Yuan had warned him that Miss Xueying was not a simple girl. It seemed he had underestimated this woman.

...

...

The next morning, as Huangfu Jue sat at the table eating breakfast, Will had already obtained the report he wanted.

"The fingerprint report shows that there are indeed fingerprints on the scissors. The fingerprints have been compared with everyone in the Imperial Palace and they do not match our internal staff. As for whether they belong to Miss Xueying, because we do not have her fingerprint information, we cannot be certain." Will passed over a second report, "The blood on the tissue matches the blood on the wall, indicating that it is indeed Miss Xueying’s blood. Moreover, they have found the same blood sample on the scissors."

If Miss Xueying had truly collided with the wall, her blood wouldn’t be on the scissors—the truth speaks for itself—she had injured herself with the scissors.

Will’s face was full of disgust, "I’ve never seen such a vicious woman!"

To call someone despicable and sneaky, he had seen his share, but to harm oneself so severely to achieve an objective, especially when Miss Xueying usually behaved with an innocent and kind exterior.

Thinking about it was frightening!

Huangfu Jue calmly set down the milk cup in his hand.

"Prepare the carriage, I’m going to visit Duke Locke’s residence."

"You mean?"

Will shifted his gaze in confusion. Even if all this indicated that Miss Xueying had injured herself, strictly speaking, the most it showed was a flaw in her character. What could Huangfu Jue do to her by going to the Duke Residence?

"Miss Xueying was injured because of me, of course, I should pay her a visit!"

Now that he thought about it, his previous encounter with her at the hotel must also have been orchestrated by this woman.

After reflecting carefully on her performance last night and previously at the hospital, it was not hard to notice that Miss Xueying seemed to have ulterior motives toward him.

A woman who could bring scissors to her own wound — what wouldn’t she be capable of doing?

Perhaps, the assassination attempt on Gan Tang before had something to do with her.

This time, he would go see for himself what was true and what was facade.

Will suddenly realized, "You suspect she’s involved with the incident concerning the young prince?"

Huangfu Jue’s expression turned cold, "She had better not be involved."

He left the rest unsaid, but Will understood Huangfu Jue’s unspoken words.

To speak nothing of the Duke himself, even Will wouldn’t spare anyone who targeted the young prince. Attacking a child was the most shameful act, especially since it was the young prince he was most fond of.

After breakfast, master and servant hastened to Duke Locke’s residence, with Will making sure to prepare a bouquet of flowers and a basket of fruit to show Huangfu Jue’s sincerity.

When the master and servant arrived at the Duke’s residence, Miss Xueying was in her room, losing her temper at a maid.

Ever since Duke Locke became ill, the entire residence had been under her rule. Initially, she still made an effort to disguise it, but now she was increasingly less inclined to restrain herself.
