”Yes, Eldest Miss.” Ding Xiang reached out to take the hairpin from Lian Si Yue's hand — —
Suddenly, with a ”bang” sound, Ding Xiang lowered her head to look, only to see a piece of jade falling to the ground and shattering into several pieces. She was shocked and said: ”This, this ….”
”How dare you!” Lian Si Yue slammed the table violently, scaring Ding Xiang out of her wits, and at the same time, both Qing Dai and Jiang Xiang were shocked.
”B-Eldest Miss …” Ding Xiang was stunned.
”This jade is a gift from father, it's priceless. You actually broke it to vent your anger, you're too gutsy! Do you even put this Eldest Miss of mine in your eyes? ” Lian Si Yue slapped her face.
”No, it's not me, Eldest Miss, I don't know, I didn't know you had an emerald in your hand, I didn't touch it!” Ding Xiang was so scared that he knelt down and explained.
”You still dare to argue? You clearly broke this jade!” Let's see how you'll compensate! Qing Dai, Jiang Xiang, tie her up for me and send her to the old Madame! ” Lian Si Yue ordered harshly. She wanted to blame Ding Xiang for breaking the jade.
”Yes, Eldest Miss!” Qing Dai and Jiang Xiang finally understood the situation, the two of them anxiously found ropes and tied Ding Xiang's hands behind her back. Ding Xiang was extremely frightened, she had never seen such a powerful Eldest Miss before.
”Eldest Miss is right. Servant really doesn't have it … Jiang Xiang, speak, you saw it too, I did not break it … ” Ding Xiang said as she looked at Jiang Xiang, while begging for help.
Jiang Xiang avoided her eyes and quietly took a step back, then said softly: ”Yes, you broke it.”
”Ding Xiang, this is Eldest Miss's beloved item, could it be that she will break it herself? Both Jiang Xiang and I saw that you had shattered the jade and what grievances do you have with the Eldest Miss that you would actually do such a thing to vent your anger. ” Qing Dai asked.
”I, I …” Ding Xiang suddenly understood that the Eldest Miss was deliberately framing him, and she could not refute him, so he said, ”Eldest Miss, if there is anything you need from me, I will do it, Servant will definitely do it!”
The corner of Lian Si Yue's eyes slowly condensed into a faint smile, and she asked, ”What plans does Auntie Xiao and Second Wife have? Why did they send you here?”
Hearing that, Ding Xiang's eyes flashed, and she immediately kneeled on the ground, crying as she said, ”Eldest Miss is right. Servant knows nothing, nothing at all.”
”Heh …” Lian Si Yue sneered, then continued, ”Yesterday morning, yesterday morning, at noon today, behind the fake mountain, under the third willow tree, in the backyard, you met with the Dong mama, and reported every single aspect of my day to the Dong mama.”
Ding Xiang was shocked, her expression suddenly changed. She only knew that Eldest Miss was always muddle-headed and did not know what to say, but she never expected that every move she made would be in her hands.
She anxiously tried to defend herself with tears streaming down her face, ”Yes, Dong mama sent someone to call Servant over. He said that Auntie Xiao wanted to know what Eldest Miss had done all day and was not used to it.”
”Oh?” Lian Si Yue raised his eyebrows, and said, ”So that means, Auntie Xiao called you over to take care of me?”
”Yes, Dong mama said that he was afraid that Eldest Miss would suffer grievances while she was in Yao City, and felt unhappy. He told Servant to pay more attention to Eldest Miss's actions.” Ding Xiang said with his head lowered, not daring to look at Lian Si Yue's eyes.
”What a perfect excuse …” It was obvious that Ding Xiang did not expect someone to teach her such a flawless explanation.
Lian Si Yue squinted her eyes, and suddenly released a trace of Evil Qi, and shouted: ”Qing Dai, Jiang Xiang, go and take out the poisonous snake that Second Miss captured!”
”Yes, Eldest Miss.”
