"The woman in front should be Yu Hongzhu. In Yucheng, only she and Zong Zheng Mingzhu know the situation in the back mountain. As for the girl in the back, is she her sister Yu Qiushuang?"

Yu Hongzhu's identity is easy to confirm, but it is hard to say about the woman behind her. However, the one who dares to follow Yu Hongzhu is most likely Yu Hongzhu's sister Yu Qiushuang.

Speaking of Yu Qiu Shuang, she is definitely one of the most tragic characters in the show. She is the second lady of Yucheng and has a respected status, but none of the people she loves loves her back, and they all want to kill her.

Even in death, she could not rest in peace. Her brother-in-law who married into her family had an affair with her best friend, and her sister and fiancé betrayed her.

In the end, her sister Yu Hongzhu said that she wanted to avenge her, but in fact, she only wanted to maintain Yucheng's authority. Even after she knew the murderer, she never thought of avenging her, but instead favored Zong Zheng Mingzhu.

It can be said that Yu Qiu Shuang is a human tragedy. She should have been a person with no worries about food and clothing, and lived a life of wealth and glory, but in the end she ended up with such a miserable end.

The tracking skills of the girl in the green dress behind were obviously not very good, and she quickly lost the target.

The girl in the green dress turned around, completely lost her target, and couldn't help but sigh.

"My sister told me not to come to the back mountain, so why did she sneak over here by herself? Is there some secret in the back mountain that I don't know about?"

Zhou Chen guessed correctly. The girl in green dress was Yu Qiu Shuang, the second lady of Yucheng, and the person she was following was her sister Yu Hongzhu.

The back mountain has always been a forbidden area in Yucheng, because there are many poisonous insects and weeds in the back mountain. Anyone who enters the back mountain will either die or be injured. Therefore, Yu Hongzhu ordered that no one can enter the back mountain without her permission.

Yu Qiu Shuang didn't think there was anything wrong before, but a few times she found that her sister Yu Hongzhu secretly came to the back mountain alone, and she didn't know what she was doing.

She was very curious and struggled for a long time. Today, she found her sister walking towards the back mountain again, so she had an idea and quietly followed Yu Hongzhu, wanting to see what her sister was doing in the back mountain.

I just went to the back mountain and followed her for a while, but then I lost track of my sister.

Yu Qiu Shuang stood there, feeling very annoyed and thinking that she was really disappointing. She was considering whether to go deeper or not.

Of course she knew about the forbidden area in the back mountain. Many people in Yucheng who accidentally entered the back mountain were killed, so she was still a little afraid of the back mountain.

But she was so curious about why her sister came here, so she gritted her teeth and ignored the danger and continued to chase forward.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark. In this dense forest, the visibility was greatly affected. Zhou Chen was following not far behind Yu Qiu Shuang, but Yu Qiu Shuang did not notice it at all.

Yu Qiu Shuang walked carefully. Perhaps because she had never experienced any setbacks since childhood, she was still quite courageous. Although everything was silent at this moment, she was not too afraid.

As she was groping forward, suddenly, a shadow rushed towards her. She was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and quickly pulled out the long whip from her waist and swung it down. The shadow was immediately split into two halves and fell to the ground.

'It turned out to be a poisonous snake.'

Seeing that it was a blue-black poisonous snake, Yu Qiu Shuang was still frightened. Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough. She knew at first glance that the snake was poisonous. If she was bitten, she would definitely be poisoned.

After walking a little further, we found several poisonous spiders and some other poisonous insects.

At this time, she had already started to back down in her heart. There were so many poisonous creatures here, it was too dangerous, and she couldn't react so quickly every time.

"There are so many poisonous insects here, why did you come to this back mountain?"

After discovering so many poisonous insects, she was frightened, but also more curious about why her sister came to the back mountain.

It is human instinct to seek good fortune and avoid danger. No normal person would go there knowing there is danger, but her sister went straight into the back mountain, which obviously meant she had some secret.

Seeing that the further she went, the more poisonous insects she encountered, she stopped and prepared to turn back.

But after she walked back a few steps, she suddenly heard the sound of the poisonous snake again. She turned around and saw several poisonous insects crawling on the tree, including poisonous snakes and centipedes. She didn't bother to chop them, but fled away quickly.

But her movement immediately attracted those poisonous insects, which flew towards Yu Qiu Shuang at an extremely fast speed and tried to bite her.

Yu Qiu Shuang was horrified and used all her strength, waving the whip in her hand, trying to kill the poisonous insects that were besieging her.

There were many whip shadows, but her reaction was still good. She killed most of the poisonous insects, but there were still some fish that fell into the net, and she could only dodge left and right.

But just when she thought she had avoided all the poisonous insects, suddenly a poisonous spider the size of a baby's palm fell from above her head, landed on her shoulder, and then bit her face.

Yu Qiu Shuang never expected this situation to happen. It was too late. Seeing the poisonous spider about to bite her face, she screamed in fear.

"what!"

But the next moment, she found that the poisonous spider that was so close to her was suddenly knocked away by something and hit a tree not far away.

She was still panicking and immediately looked around: "Who? Who is it?"

Then she saw Zhou Chen standing by the tree behind her. The moment she saw Zhou Chen, her expression froze.

Although it was already dark, she couldn't help but feel her eyes brightened when she saw the young man in dark Confucian clothes.

Her fiancé Zong Zheng Mingzhu was a handsome and elegant man, but the man in front of her was no less handsome than her fiancé. At first glance, he even had an indescribable temperament. He was just standing there casually, but he was extremely eye-catching.

She was originally very nervous, but after seeing the other person's appearance, she felt much more relaxed and her tone became gentler.

"Who are you? I've never seen you before. Why are you in the hills behind our house?"

Zhou Chen looked at the girl in green dress in front of him with great interest. It was naturally him who rescued her just now. He just heard Yu Qiu Shuang mumbling to herself and confirmed her identity.

"Although this is the back mountain of Yucheng, it doesn't mean that all the people here belong to your Yu family. But you, you followed someone here so late, aren't you afraid of encountering danger?"

Yu Qiu Shuang wanted to refute, but when she thought about how she was just saved by Zhou Chen, her face suddenly turned red.

"This is naturally our Yu family's territory, but how did you know I was following someone here? Could it be that you have been here for a long time, and you saw me following my sister?"

Zhou Chen nodded and said, "How could I not notice you making such a big noise?"

Yu Qiu Shuang frowned: "You mean, you have been in the back mountain for a long time?"

"Not too long ago. I am a wandering wanderer. I heard about the reputation of Kunlun Jade City, so I wanted to come and see it. I didn't expect that after I came here, I found that your Jade City has many interesting places and interesting things."

"What do you mean?"

Yu Qiu Shuang didn't understand why Zhou Chen said that.

Zhou Chen said: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be Yu Qiushuang, the second young lady of Yucheng. The person you were following just now must be your sister, Madam Yu of Yucheng."

Yu Qiu Shuang said, "My sister and I often show up in Yucheng, so it's not surprising that you know us. You know that the back mountain is our Yu family's territory, but you still dare to come here privately. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by us?"

"I'm not the only one hiding in the hills behind your house."

"what?"

Zhou Chen's words shocked Yu Qiu Shuang: "Is there someone else hiding in the back mountain? Who is it?"

Zhou Chen glanced at her and said, "I think it's best that you don't know. The other party is not someone you can offend. I saved you because you have a good heart. If you want to save your life, it's best not to ask too much about the things in the back mountain."

Although Yucheng is a powerful force, even Yu Hongzhu is a member of the Golden Yuan League. Yu Qiushuang is much worse than Yu Hongzhu. If she knew the situation in the back mountain and the people of the Golden Yuan League found out, she would definitely end up with a miserable death, just like in the plot.

"You're scaring me?"

Yu Qiu Shuang didn't buy it. As the second daughter of the Yu family, although she was not the overbearing type, she was also quite spoiled. She only did not lose her temper because Zhou Chen praised her for having a good heart.

Zhou Chen pointed at the poisonous insects on the ground and said, "These poisonous insects are the first line of defense they set up. You can't even deal with these poisonous insects. If you meet the real owner, do you think you can deal with it?"

Yu Qiu Shuang's face suddenly changed, thinking of the scene where she was attacked by a poisonous insect just now. If Zhou Chen hadn't come to her rescue, she would probably have been bitten by the poisonous insect.

"you……"

She opened her mouth to speak, but Zhou Chen's ears suddenly moved, and then he moved his body and came in front of Yu Qiu Shuang, grabbed her waist, and at the same time kicked the poisonous insects on the ground away, then performed the Posing Step, stepped on the tree trunk, and quickly rushed to the top of the tree.

Before Yu Qiu Shuang could figure out what was going on, she found herself being embraced by Zhou Chen, flying into the air and landing on top of a tree.

"you."

"Shhh."

Zhou Chen made a gesture to her to keep quiet. She suppressed her discomfort, covered her mouth, and her body leaned involuntarily on Zhou Chen.

It was the first time for her to be so close to a man other than her father. Even to her fiancé, she had never been so close. If it were any other time, she would have cursed him as a lecher and swung her whip at him.

But at this moment, she did not take any action. She just held her breath, leaned against Zhou Chen, and looked down.

After a while, a figure came to where they were just now. It was her sister Yu Hongzhu.

Yu Hongzhu observed the surroundings for a while, and after finding that nothing was happening, she left carefully. Judging from the direction she left, she should be returning to Yucheng.

It was not until Yu Hongzhu disappeared for a while that Zhou Chen fell from the top of the tree, and after landing he let go of Yu Qiu Shuang.

"Thank you."

"what?"

Yu Qiu Shuang suddenly thanked him, leaving Zhou Chen confused.

"If it weren't for you, I would have been discovered by my sister just now. Your martial arts are really amazing. My sister didn't even notice us."

In her eyes, her sister Yu Hongzhu's martial arts skills were very powerful, but it was obvious that this man was more powerful than her sister.

"I don't think you're a bad person, so why are you hiding in the back hills of our Jade City? What's your purpose?"

"I came here to look for people, but after I came to Yucheng, I realized that your Yucheng is really interesting, especially you, Miss Yu Er."

Looking at the beautiful young girl in the green dress with a curious look on her face, Zhou Chen sighed softly. Yu Qiu Shuang's ending was indeed sad and lamentable.

Yu Qiu Shuang frowned and asked unhappily, "What's wrong with me? Why do you always leave your words unsaid? It makes me so anxious."

Zhou Chen had no reason to hesitate. Now that he had met her, it was only right for him to change Yu Qiu Shuang's ending.

"I say you, Miss Yu, are really too naive. I've only been in your Yu City for less than a month, and I've already discovered many secrets. You live at home every day, but you didn't notice anything unusual. It's really..."

Her elder sister Yu Hongzhu was secretly having an affair with her fiancé Zong Zheng Mingzhu, and her brother-in-law was having an affair with her best friend, but Yu Qiu Shuang didn't notice either of them. She was either too naive or she trusted her family and friends too much and didn't have any guard against them at all.

"What exactly do you want to say? Can you just say it directly? You always keep playing tricks on me."

Yu Qiu Shuang glared at Zhou Chen angrily. She was already certain that Zhou Chen had no ill will towards her, so she let down her guard a lot. However, the fact that Zhou Chen spoke halfway made her anxious.

Zhou Chen pondered and said, "If I tell you these secrets directly, you will definitely not believe it. Instead, you will think that I am spreading rumors. So, in a few days, when the time is right, I will find you and take you to witness it with your own eyes. Then you will believe what I say."

Yu Qiu Shuang didn’t understand what Zhou Chen was trying to express. She didn’t like this kind of cryptic conversation.

"Why should I believe you? After all, this is the first time we meet. How can I know if you have any hidden agenda?"

Zhou Chen smiled slightly and said, "Second Miss Yu, you are so smart that you should be able to see that I have no ill intentions."

Yu Qiu Shuang stared at Zhou Chen for a long time and found that Zhou Chen did not avoid her gaze at all. In the end, it was her own face that turned red and she looked away.

"Okay, I'll trust you this time."

For some reason, she felt that Zhou Chen was more trustworthy, so she decided to believe Zhou Chen, but she still made a threatening statement.

"If I find out that you're playing a trick on me, I will never let you go."

Yu Qiu Shuang raised the whip in her hand and threatened fiercely.

"Please rest assured, Miss Yu Er, I will come to you when the time is right."

"You're looking for me? Our house is heavily guarded, how could you find me?"

"You don't have to worry about that. Just wait patiently."

"Ok."

Yu Qiu Shuang made an agreement with Zhou Chen and left the back mountain.

Returning to her room, she lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. What happened tonight made her unable to sleep.

The back hill, the elder sister, the drug addict, the mysterious man...

"Wait, I actually forgot to ask his name."

Yu Qiu Shuang sat up from the bed, her eyes wide open, a look of disbelief on her face.

She didn't tell anyone what happened tonight, not even her best friend.

In the next few days, she was looking forward to Zhou Chen's reappearance, but Zhou Chen did not show up for several days in a row, which made her very disappointed. She wanted to go to the back mountain to look for him, but after thinking about it, she decided not to go.

That night, after Yu Qiu Shuang separated from her best friend Yun Jiao, she went back to her room to rest, but she sat in front of the dressing table and didn't feel sleepy at all.

She didn't know why, but since that night, she had been hoping to see Zhou Chen again.

"A few days have passed, but there is still no news. Could he be lying to me?"

"I did not deceive Miss Yu Er."

The sudden voice did not scare Yu Qiu Shuang, but instead made her turn around with a look of surprise.

Sure enough, she saw Zhou Chen, whom she had always wanted to see.

"I thought you would never show up again."

Zhou Chen stood there with his arms folded across his chest: "I told you, I'll come find you when the time comes."

"So now is the time?"

"Ah."

Yu Qiu Shuang asked curiously, "How did you get in? Why didn't our guards notice anything?"

Zhou Chen said: "If I am discovered by your guards, all my efforts in martial arts over the years will be in vain. Time is urgent. Are you ready?"

"What are you preparing for? What secret did you say you wanted to take me to see last time?" Yu Qiu Shuang asked with a look of anticipation and nervousness.
