Chapter 415 - One Yao Ling Was Already Enough (2/2)

The two-faced Concubine Lan could see Concubine Xi's uncomfortable state and smirk to herself. If she lost one of her competitors, it would be good ah~! She quickly said, ”Jie... your face looks paler than usual. If you are not feeling good, I can accompany you to go back to the room, after all, this luxurious breakfast is prepared to celebrate something special for Young Mistress...”

She wanted people to see how kind she was and for the last part, she implied softly that Concubine Xi was an eyesore. How could she look so haggard when attending this rare luxurious breakfast? She deliberately used Yao Ling's name to make a gap between them.

Yao Ling quickly gasped and said, ”No need to be that severe. This is just an ordinary meal... No need to exaggerate it. I'm simply worried about Concubine Xi...” She pretended to look guilty and look down in embarrassment.

Madam Wang furrowed her eyebrows. She was her legal mother, so Yao Ling should be more concerned about her... why did she care about a lowly concubine? The more she saw Yao Ling, the more she felt that she was not pleasing to her eyes. The knot in her heart was getting bigger --- ever since the first time she laid her eyes on the couple, she didn't like them because she felt that they were up to no good.

They were only a village boy and girl!

If not because of the matriarch and Wang Luo Hai's firm decision to take them in, she would certainly refuse to become their legal mother! However, she didn't join in the conversation and continued to eat silently.

The matriarch saw how uncomfortable Yao Ling was and she quickly ended this matter --- she would investigate personally later about Concubine Xi and she hated how Concubine Lan try to make such a simple matter into a big one. ”No need to fuss over such a small matter. Go back to eat!” The matriarch ordered both concubines. The kid was just too kind for worrying about a concubine, but they dared to make it turn into their own show.

Concubine Lan was feeling embarrassed for being rebuked in front of a lot of people but she could only swallow her grievance. She turned her watery eyes to Wang Luo Hai but the latter didn't pay any attention to her and it made Concubine Lan feel more unreconciled!

Concubine Wan wasn't as brazen as before ever since her past experience so she only stayed quietly on the side. She sighed in relief because she made the right choice by didn't join them --- she was indeed becoming wiser. There was a hint of mockery in her eyes.

Yao Ling's goal had been reached --- she just wanted people to take notice of Concubine Xi's weird appearance so that their next step of the plan would become successful.

Yao Ying had another thought when he saw the scene. The inner courtyard battle was really complicated ah~! This was only a simple and short one but it already gave him a headache! For a man, if they didn't like each other, they would talk bluntly about it and then solved it with their fists --- after that, everything would be good. However, the women kept backstabbing each other with gentle words.

He felt lucky that he had only one wife... He didn't want to take concubines!

One Yao Ling was already enough...
