Chapter 297 Self-directed and self-acted
Qiao Jingjing was very calm because what she said was the truth.

When a man is drunk, he is simply unable to do that kind of thing, let alone force someone.

Although Jinkui said that there were blood stains on the bed sheet, she believed that all of this was directed and acted by Zhian herself. After Lu's father came back, he fell asleep immediately and it was impossible for him to do anything to her.

Zhian's use of the fact that Lu's father was drunk was actually a very stupid act.

When Zhian met Qiao Jingjing's smiling eyes, he felt very embarrassed for a moment. He always felt that what he had done was a joke in her eyes.

She was shocked and angry, and clenched her shaking hands tightly, "What... do you mean?"

"What do you mean? Wasn't I clear enough? My father didn't touch you at all. You staged everything yourself. As for the bloodstains, it must be because you pricked your foot or finger." Qiao Jingjing looked at her sarcastically.

Zhian's heart sank and she subconsciously pulled her feet into her skirt.

Qiao Jingjing saw her actions and became more certain of her guess. She looked at her with a smile.

Zhian dodged his gaze, then angrily said: "You said you didn't touch me? The master is your father-in-law, so you naturally don't want the master to marry me.

I never thought of taking advantage of this matter to gain any reputation, but you are really going too far. I will report you to the Censorate and let everyone see how your Lu family bullies weak women. I will let everyone see what a despicable person Lord Lu's father is.

I think, Lord Lu would not want to be pointed at by his colleagues and criticized by the world, right? "

She said the last sentence while looking at Lu Xingzhi, and then glanced at Qiao Jingjing provocatively.

Aren't they going to kick her out of the house?
Then no one can have an easy time.

She knew that officials valued their reputation the most, especially those in high positions like Lu Xingzhi. There must be many people in the court waiting to see him make a mistake.

Although the person who "forced" her was Father Lu, Father Lu is Lu Xingzhi's father. If this kind of thing were to be spread out, it would definitely affect Lu Xingzhi, and he might even be reprimanded by the emperor.

She thought she had Lu Xingzhi and Qiao Jingjing under control. Her initial panic was replaced by confidence and pride. She waited for the two to bow to her and beg her for mercy.

However, Lu Xingzhi didn't take her seriously at all, and said calmly: "Do you think that a small maid like you can meet the people from the Censorate? Will the people from the Censorate believe you just based on your few words?
It’s not all luck that got me to where I am today.

If you don’t believe it, you can try it.”

The smug look on Zhian's face froze. The man in front of her didn't take her seriously at all.

From the time he came here until now, he has been calm and composed, neither angry nor annoyed, and has the attitude of a bystander watching a show.

Thinking of this, she looked a little broken.

How could he be so calm? That's his father.

Isn't he worried at all?

Qiao Jingjing looked at her as if she was looking at a clown.

She actually wanted to threaten them with something that was completely fabricated.

Go to the Censorate to report?
Not to mention whether she could meet the people from the Censorate, there was no way she could even leave the Lu Mansion.

I don’t know where she got the confidence to threaten Lu Xingzhi?

Just as she was thinking this, she saw her father-in-law suddenly slam the table with his palm and said murderously: "Believe it or not, I will kill you?" Qiao Jingjing was frightened by her father-in-law's sudden attack.

Seeing Father Lu with a bandit-like demeanor at this moment, she really believed that when he was young, Father Lu was a robber.

Meeting his murderous eyes, Zhian's heart trembled. She had been in Dexintang for quite some time. Father Lu had never been a humble man and was very tolerant towards his servants. She had never expected that he had such a side to him.

At this moment, he didn't look like he was threatening her, but rather as if he really wanted to kill her. She was naturally afraid, but things had come to this point and she couldn't back down.

She sneered, "Why, Master, you want to kill me to silence me? Yes, you are powerful and I am just a humble servant, so you can kill me if you want, or chop me up if you want. But even if you kill me, it can't change the fact that the Master forced me."

Father Lu was so angry that he cursed, "You bitch, stop talking nonsense!"

Zhian's face turned pale. "Since the master refuses to acknowledge him, I have nothing to say. I only hope that the officials from the Censorate can seek justice for me." After saying that, she stood up and walked out.

Father Lu's face turned pale. He could ignore himself, but he didn't want his son's reputation to be damaged in the slightest.

He stood up suddenly and asked, "Do you think you can leave the Lu Mansion today?"

Zhian's body stiffened, and he sneered, "Why, Master, are you going to attack this servant?"

Looking at the furious Father Lu, Qiao Jingjing spoke first: "Zhi An, you said my father touched you, do you dare to let someone check?"

"What do you mean?" Zhian felt uneasy.

Qiao Jingjing did not answer her, but turned to Lu Xingzhi and Lu's father and said, "You two should step aside for a moment."

The two of them vaguely knew what she was going to do, nodded, and left the house.

Seeing this, Zhian felt even more uneasy. He looked at Qiao Jingjing and angrily asked, "What do you want to do?"

"You are a smart person. You should understand what I mean. Often, a bloodstain alone cannot prove anything." Qiao Jingjing said, raising her voice and shouting, "Aunt Rong!"

"Madam." Aunt Rong walked in.

Qiao Jingjing whispered to her, then ordered loudly, "Find two experienced maids to give Miss Zhian a thorough checkup."

"Yes." Aunt Rong responded, deliberately looked at Zhian with sympathy, and then called two maids in.

"After all, Miss Zhian is a young girl with delicate skin and tender flesh. Aunt Rong and the others, please be gentle and don't make Miss Zhian feel uncomfortable." Qiao Jingjing said slowly.

"Yes, I understand." Aunt Rong said, looking at Zhian kindly, "Don't worry, Miss Zhian, my two mothers and I are all experienced people, and we know how to do it so that people won't feel uncomfortable."

Looking at the maids approaching him, Zhian's eyes widened with fear.

These women were all very strong and did the hard work in the yard. If they touched my body...

Zhian's face turned pale as paper, and he glared at Qiao Jingjing resentfully, "How dare you humiliate me?"

"Humiliate you? Miss Zhian, you are joking. We are helping you. You keep saying that my father forced you, but a piece of blood is not enough to prove anything.

So it's for your own good that we asked Aunt Rong and the others to examine you further. You can rest assured that if the examination shows that you are indeed in bad health, our Lu family will definitely give you an explanation. "Qiao Jingjing said with a serious face.
