The yandere is too beautiful; the fake heiress sneaks kisses through the window every day.

So why did the national flower that should have belonged to the Great Jiang Kingdom bloom in later generations, and why is it still unknown to everyone? Is it a coincidence or...?

In the middle of the night, Jiang Yu tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Her mind was filled with images of the Crimson Radiance Flower and the Jiang Kingdom. Unable to fall asleep, she decided to climb out the window and go find the Empress to help her fall asleep.

Halfway through climbing through the window, he suddenly remembered something, turned a corner, and climbed through the window next door.

Jiang Mingyue, who was working hard in front of the computer, suddenly heard a noise outside the window. She immediately stopped what she was doing, looked up with a sharp and alert expression, and quietly reached for the drawer.

He was about to draw his sword when he suddenly saw the person who jumped in. He stared at them for two seconds and couldn't help but break down.

"No way, are you sick? Why would you climb through a window when there's a perfectly good door?" Jiang Mingyue glared at Jiang Yu through gritted teeth.

Jiang Yu said nonchalantly, "That's more convenient."

Jiang Mingyue gritted her teeth inwardly.

Jiang Yu walked to the table on her own and asked, "Did you crack that forum?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mingyue frowned and looked at her coldly, "Why are you asking this?"

"Just asking."

"It concerns the details of the case, so I cannot comment."

"Oh, so you've cracked it?"

"..."

Do you even know what "no comment" means?!

The two of them stared at each other in a stalemate for a long while before Jiang Yu suddenly said something.

"You're not impotent, are you?"

Jiang Mingyue: "?! ...

"Who are you calling incompetent?!" Jiang Mingyue retorted angrily.

"Oh, so you've cracked it?" Jiang Yu asked calmly, her large, clear eyes wide open.

Jiang Mingyue's throat tightened with anger, and she felt even more uncomfortable as she struggled to catch her breath.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Jiang Mingyue asked helplessly.

"I've never seen a black forum before, I'd like to see one," Jiang Yu said sincerely, her reason as simple and unpretentious as ever.

Jiang Mingyue pursed her lips, hesitated for a few moments, and then looked at the computer again. Her fingers flew across the keyboard, typing rapidly, and lines of obscure and difficult-to-understand code appeared one by one.

After another ten minutes or so, the loading bar on the screen finally reached 100%, and the screen changed, revealing a forum homepage with a black background.

"It's done." Jiang Mingyue's lips curled up.

Jiang Yu appeared behind her at some point, staring at the screen with a puzzled frown.

Could it be that she guessed wrong? Was the appearance of the Crimson Flower just a coincidence, and had nothing to do with the forum?

Upon entering the forum, Jiang Mingyue immediately tracked down the account that had been in contact with Zhang Wei. Unexpectedly, the firewall set up by the other party was quite powerful and had anti-tracking capabilities.

While pursuing and defending, Jiang Mingyue exerted some effort and was about to break through when she was unexpectedly discovered at the last moment.

Looking at the tracking display on the screen, indicating that the target had been lost, Jiang Mingyue pursed her lips tightly, and the air pressure around her seemed to drop several degrees.

Jiang Yu glanced at the screen and then at the person radiating coldness, before suddenly speaking.

"Is he better than you?"

"They're about even," Jiang Mingyue snorted coldly, reluctantly admitting it.

Although she couldn't track the other party's location, the other party also couldn't locate her, and she even sent them a virus.

She's the one who's more capable.

Just as she was feeling smug, the computer screen in front of her suddenly went black, and a blood-stained, withering crimson flower bloomed on the pure black screen.

It's extremely ironic.

Jiang Mingyue was initially annoyed, but then she noticed something and stared at the screen in astonishment, "This is...?"

"Find him." Jiang Yu stared intently at the Crimson Flower, her tone carrying the unyielding coldness and anger of a superior.

Jiang Mingyue was stunned when she met the girl's angry and murderous gaze. Although she was the one who was humiliated, she was not angry yet, so why was the girl reacting so strongly?

"What are you going to do?" Jiang Mingyue asked dryly.

"Find him and kill him." Jiang Yu said coldly, pursing her lips.

Jiang Mingyue: "..."

All you ever do is talk about sharks. If you're so good at sharking, why don't you go to RT-Mart to have your fish killed?

Jiang Yu, who had been kicked out of the room by Jiang Mingyue, returned to her own room in a huff and then skillfully climbed out the window to find the Empress.

She originally wanted to complain to the Empress about someone stealing her flowers, but when she arrived at the South Garden, she found it dark and quiet, with no one inside.

The Empress was not in the South Garden, but the main building in the distance was brightly lit and looked very lively. Jiang Yu decided to go and take a look to see if the Empress was there.

The people outside are all wicked; what if they bully the Empress?

She must save the Empress!

Jiang Yu went to rescue people with great fanfare, but before he could find the Empress, he encountered Lu Zhenxi, who was standing by the lake looking lost and dejected.

She didn't want to pay attention, but the other person saw her anyway.

"Xiao Yu?!"

Upon seeing Jiang Yu, Lu Zhenxi was extremely surprised. He looked around in disbelief, then at the darkness.

It's strange, he actually saw Xiao Yu in the Lu family's back garden late at night.

"What are you doing here? When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me you were here?" Lu Zhenxi disregarded his sorrow and quickly walked up to Jiang Yu to ask.

"Just passing by," Jiang Yu replied to the question without changing her expression.

"Just passing by?" Lu Zhenxi asked in surprise.

Passing by my backyard late at night?

Although Lu Zhenxi was puzzled and found the reason strange and perfunctory, he didn't think too much about it because it was Jiang Yu. After all, in his eyes, Jiang Yu was a good girl and she couldn't possibly have any bad intentions.

She was probably looking for him, and the security guard recognized her and let her in.

After thinking it through, Lu Zhenxi once again transformed into a melancholy prince, saying to Jiang Yu with a sorrowful and apologetic tone, "Xiao Yu, it seems you've made a wasted trip today. I'm in a very confused state of mind and can't accompany you. I'll have the driver take you home."

Jiang Yu only heard the first and last sentences, so she went there for nothing?

What's wrong? Is the Empress not home?

Since the Empress was not home, she went back.

Seeing Jiang Yu turn and leave without a word, Lu Zhenxi mistakenly thought she was angry and quickly grabbed her to explain, "It's really not convenient today. How about I come see you again later?"

Jiang Yu turned around in confusion, shook off his hand, and refused his inexplicable request, "No need."

Lu Zhenxi became anxious, "Even if you're angry, don't hurt yourself. It's not safe for you to go home alone so late. I'll have the driver take you."

"No need," Jiang Yu refused again.

Rejected repeatedly, Lu Zhenxi became even more distressed. Looking at Jiang Yu pitifully, he said, "Then can you stay and keep me company?"

The Empress, who upheld the highest standards of female virtue, refused without hesitation, "No."

She is a married woman.

"Actually, tonight was supposed to be a family banquet for the Lu family, but my dad brought back an illegitimate child, and that's when I found out that my dad had been having an affair for a long time. That illegitimate child is only two months younger than me."

"How ridiculous! The father I respected since childhood turned out to be this kind of person. All that talk of filial piety and parental love was just a lie."

"Where does he place me and Miaomiao? Where does he place my mother?"

In the end, the usually gentle and refined man appeared grief-stricken and resentful, his voice hoarse and choked with sobs.

The gossip made Jiang Yu stop in her tracks. She turned around and looked at the young man who was immersed in grief. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly took out a dagger and handed it to him, speaking in a serious tone.

"In the Jiang Kingdom, men who do not uphold male virtues may be castrated, depending on the circumstances."

"Go, castrate him."
