Chapter 1133: Chapter 1132: Might Also Be the Villain, a Spy

Chu Qianli left the boy in grey at a clinic.

She put down some silver and was ready to leave.

But he chased after her.

His forehead was still bleeding. Fortunately, the wound wasn’t very large, and there wasn’t much blood.

But sliding down his dirty face, the sight was somewhat unsettling.

"I gave money to have your wounds treated. If you aren’t staying, why follow me?"

Chu Qianli turned and glared at him, her face as cold as ice: "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming."

Her expression suddenly turned grim, she stepped forward and grabbed the front of his shirt.

Her eyes turned chillingly cold: "What exactly are your intentions by approaching me with such a self-harm strategy?"

The boy’s eyes widened as he looked at her, silent, as if unable to speak.

He seemed mute, but it was uncertain if this was part of his ploy.

Chu Qianli stared at him for a long while, then heedlessly flung him aside and turned to leave.

The boy in grey still followed her.

Chu Qianli lightly tapped her foot, instantly ascended to the rooftop, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

The boy in grey looked up at the empty sky, completely losing direction.

He did not know how long he had been looking before he lowered his head and continued to wander aimlessly in the streets.

On the street, there were occasionally other dirty people, resembling beggars.

In recent years, the border town had often been troubled by wars, with minor nations and tribes provoking conflicts. It wasn’t surprising that some people in the Imperial City had lost their families and become beggars.

The boy in grey continued forward, gradually leaving the streets and alleys.

He reached a secluded place and sat under the shade of a tree, planning to rest.

But unexpectedly, several men quickly charged towards him, surrounding him.

"Where’s that beautiful lady?" The leader of the men, the one whose head had been struck by Chu Qianli.

The boy in grey didn’t speak, just stared blankly at him.

"It seems she isn’t on his side."

"That’s right, how could someone so filthy know that beautiful lady?"

"Look at you, you wanted to play the hero without regard for your own life, and now that the lady has been saved, she doesn’t need you anymore. What’s the use of playing hero now?"

"Brother, don’t waste words on him, beat him! Beat him to death! I won’t rest until I avenge this grudge!"

The men swung their clubs and charged at him.

The boy in grey no longer tried to resist, perhaps because he knew he had no capacity to resist.

He raised his hands to protect his head, a look of desolation in his eyes.

With a loud bang...

In the end, Chu Qianli left the boy in grey in the care of the butler at the Prince Residence.

"Sorry, I’m not sure how to explain, but this young man... maybe he could work for a few days? I don’t know his background, I just know it’s probably not very safe for him outside."

"Yes, he could be a villain, a spy... Sorry, I have no other choice now but to bring him here. Maybe for ten days, or maybe half a month, I’ll let him go..."

"Miss Chu need not worry, whoever you bring in, we will treat well."

Actually, the butler didn’t need any explanations; his attitude had always been very friendly and warm.

It was Chu Qianli herself who felt uneasy.

Who knows if this boy in grey was a spy sent by an enemy?

But it was her compassion that defeated her; after abandoning him, she couldn’t help but turn back to find him.

Sure enough, she saw him being attacked... always too compassionate, what to do?

Before she could settle her conflict, a figure appeared from the depths of the yard.

Chu Qianli’s gaze darkened, and she quickly walked over to greet it.
