When the jailer saw the bracelet, his eyes lit up and he snatched the bracelet away and looked at it carefully under the light. Seeing that the colour was not bad, he then said with a smile, "Since you said so, I will help you. But it is a good thing that your Older Brother came to see you, why do you still push him out? "
Shen Qing forced a smile and said, "Because of me, the residence is in trouble. One really feel apologetic and do not have the face to see them."
The jailer nodded his head but there was some contempt in his eyes. If she was really such a self-respecting female, how would she commit adultery behind her family's back and even get pregnant before marriage. Now saying that she felt apologetic and did not have the face to see others was really putting on an act. But the jailer did not have any reason to refuse and left after accepting the matter.
After the jailer walked far away, Shen Qing then squatted down and helplessly hugged her shoulders and buried her head in her knees. Now she often did this action because she did not know if what she was doing was right or wrong and did not know where the road ahead was. She could only not look or think, as if when she opened her eyes again, she would be able to return to the time when she was the Eldest Young Lady of the Shen family.
She did not know how long she slept in a daze until she heard someone knocking on the iron bars. She then raised her head in a daze.
In the flickering light, a familiar face was reflected. If it was in the past, she would have been overjoyed to see this face but after Shen Miao's words, Shen Qing was so scared that she fell to the ground and looked at the person in front of her in a panic.
Shen Yuan said, "Is Younger Sister doing well?"
"Second Older Brother, why are you here?" Shen Qing asked as she quietly took a step back.
Shen Yuan saw her action and frowned slightly but did not say anything. He took out a key from his sleeves and opened the cell door. Shen Qing was surprised for a moment when she saw it and immediately stood up with joy, "Second Older Brother, are you here to save me out?"
Shen Yuan shook his head, "Temporarily unable to save you." He took out a bag of snacks and handed it to Shen Qing, "Come over to see you and get you something to eat."
Shen Qing was somewhat disappointed. Shen Yuan had already walked in and seemed to feel that the prison was somewhat dirty. He had a somewhat disgusted look on his face. When Shen Qing saw this, she felt somewhat sad in her heart. She subconsciously took the oiled paper bag from Shen Yuan's hands and opened it. In the oiled paper bag, there was a fragrant pastry that was still steaming. It was her favorite chestnut cake in the past.
"You have suffered these days," Shen Yuan said with a rare gentleness, "I know you love to eat this, so I brought it to you to satisfy your craving."
Shen Qing's nose turned sour and she almost shed tears. These days, she had been eating spoiled food in the prison and was still not full. Every day, she lived in fear and anxiety. Now that she saw her old love and Shen Yuan was coincidentally by her side, all the grievances in her heart gushed out.
"Don't cry. After you finish eating, wait a few days and I'll save you," Shen Yuan said gently.
Shen Qing somewhat awkwardly took out a piece of pastry and was about to send it to her mouth when she saw Shen Yuan's gentle smile. Her hand suddenly trembled, as if a basin of cold water was poured over her head. Inexplicably, Shen Miao's words from the afternoon reverberated in her ears.
"He could have a good career and a limitless future but because of you, there were endless troubles. Do you really think that he would want to come and save you?"
The pastry was close to her mouth but Shen Qing could not bite it no matter what.
The most important thing in the relationship between people was trust. If it was in the past, Shen Qing would definitely choose to trust Shen Yuan without hesitation. But ever since the matter of Prince Yu, Shen Qing had personally witnessed the coldness of the Shen family. Was this Second Older Brother really willing to give up his good career and take such a big risk to save her? If it was Shen Qing herself, she would also be somewhat hesitant. Shen Qing suddenly remembered the jade bracelet that she used to beat the jailer. At that time, she said that if Shen Yuan came over to see her, she must stop him. But what was the matter with Shen Yuan appearing now? Was it that jailer who took her things but did not do anything or Shen Yuan simply used other ways to come in?
