Ruan Tang thinking hard about how to answer, but Auston turned his eyes away, no longer looking at him, and didn’t ask anything in the end.
“What’s going on? How could Xiao Xi become like this?” Shen Mo Zhi half-hugged Ruan Xi and carefully wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Shen Mo Zhi noticed that Ruan Xi’s mental strength was damaged. Although he didn’t know what happened, he didn’t look confused.
Instead, he sharply turned his head looked at the people around him and asked, “Who hurt him?!”
Although he had just entered the Cabinet as a member of parliament, and as the heir of the Shen family, Shen Mo Zhi’s words still had considerable weight in the aristocratic circle.
He was a recognized young talent in the Imperial Star. But this time, no one dared to answer him.
The people who witnessed the original situation just now all looked at Duke Auston sitting in the wheelchair in deep fear…
They had no idea what happened just now, they only knew that Duke Auston suddenly threw Ruan Xi out.
Although they didn’t know what had happened, they all believed that it was the madman of the royal family who suddenly got sick and hurt the innocent Ruan Xi…
But even if they thought so, because of the madman’s power, no one dared to stand up for poor Ruan Xi, even if they deeply sympathized with him.
All People sought profit and avoided harm. They stiffly stepped back several steps away from where Auston was.
It’s not the first time that Auston has gone crazy in the Imperial Star.
No one knew for sure that after he had just hurt Ruan Xi, he would not hurt someone else again. Maybe he would get crazy again.
And Shen Mo Zhi’s question…
When powerful people fight and innocent people get harmed, so they don’t want to get involved.
Noble families have their own family survival tricks.
Not long after Ruan Xi fainted, the organizer of the banquet, Duchess Elena, asked the doctor to rush over to quickly check on Ruan Xi.
“What’s going on? How did Xiao Xi suddenly get hurt?” When Shen Mo Zhi saw that no one answered his question, his face immediately sank.
He looked at the organizer of the banquet, Duchess Elena and asked, “Duchess Elena, you are the organizer of this banquet. My fiancé had an accident at your banquet. Shouldn’t you give me a proper explanation?!”
Shen Mo Zhi spoke with great pressure.
Duchess Elena had been standing with Ruan Tang just now, so she naturally knew that Ruan Xi was thrown out by Auston.
But Duchess Elena didn’t dare to say it, and could only awkwardly smile with a pale face, saying, “What on earth is going on?! I was too busy just now and didn’t see clearly…”
“Duke Auston, you were quite close just now, did you see what had just happened, and how did Mr. Ruan Xi get injured?”
Duchess Elena was sweating, and could only look at Auston and kicked the ball to him.
Auston looked at the crowd with interest and didn’t say anything.
After hearing the Duchess’s inquiry, Shen Mo Zhi then noticed the existence of Ruan Tang and Duke Auston and looked over at them.
When he saw Ruan Tang standing beside Auston, he felt a sharp pain in his heart for some reason.
But he still saluted them in accordance with the etiquette of the nobility and politely nodded.
“Did an assassin suddenly appear just now?! Did the assassin hide among the servants and injure Master Ruan Xi? Did you see it, Lord Auston?”
Seeing that Auston remained silent, Duchess Elena hurriedly thought of a reason for Auston and immediately tried to smooth things over.
No matter what the truth was, how many people know that it was Auston who suddenly went crazy and hurt Ruan Xi?
In order not to offend the Emperor and the Queen and to save the face of the royal family, even if it was absurd and an assassin suddenly appeared out of nowhere, Duchess Elena had to help Austin and smooth things over in public.
It must not be confirmed that Duke Auston was really a veritable lunatic.
As for, after this incident, if Shen Mo Zhi knew the truth of the matter, how to avenge her fiancé and deal with Austin, and how to fight, it was all their business.
Hearing the emphasis, Shen Mo Zhi frowned. Although he didn’t know what happened he felt that Duchess Elena’s words were too absurd, and he still looked at Auston with an inquiring look.
He hoped that Duke Auston could provide him with some clues.
“I don’t know, I didn’t see any assassins.” Auston looked at the monkey show organized by a group of people to cooperate with his madness, and he just thought it was quite funny.
He instantly laughed out loud, and his laughter was creepy and cold.
