Chapter 233: Chapter 232: Outpouring

Seeing Chen Afu in tears, Chu Lingxuan felt an urge to wipe them away. He lifted his right hand, then put it down again, clenching his fist. He said, "Miss Chen, don't be afraid, I won't let anyone bully you."

Chen Afu wiped her tears and said, "Mr. Chu, I don't know where else I could turn. I don't know what to do."

Chu Hanyan noticed that her father didn't scoop her up immediately, but rather consoled her crying aunt. She wasn't jealous of her father's attention to her aunt and was about to run over to comfort her when Mrs. Song came over.

Mrs. Song picked her up and whispered, "My little girl, Mr. Chu and Master Chen have things to discuss. Let's go play over there."

Lu Mei and the other girls also quickly followed them into the house.

Within moments, only Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu were left in the corridor.

Chu Lingxuan said again, "The second prince and the seventh prince will likely visit our house as soon as they know I've returned."
