Chapter 71 - Causing Trouble (2/2)
“Okay, I know. I will handle it.”
Shi Qingxue responded impatiently. She looked away and didn’t talk to Dong Hui any more.
It was not that she didn’t treasure those good wills, but those matters that she couldn’t explain clearly for so many times really annoyed her. Moreover, she was never a patient person.
In the past, if others questioned her about such a fake thing, let alone explain it, she wouldn’t say a word to the other party!
Dong Hui sighed and left.
The more Shi Qingxue thought about it, the angrier she got.
When the rumors were spread, Qingxue instantly knew who the initiator was.
But Mo Junyang had said that he would deal with it, so Shi Qingxue decided not to mind it. She didn’t want to care about it! Anyway, Mo Junyang wouldn’t make her suffer a loss.
But she didn’t expect that this thing would get bigger and bigger, and even Dong Hui started to doubt her. She could imagine what others thought about her.
Shi Qingxue indeed didn’t care about her reputation, but it didn’t mean that she was willing to be arbitrarily slandered.
“Sixth Lady, should I send a letter to His Excellency to make him handle this matter?” Xia Mang saw that Shi Qingxue was unhappy and advised in a low voice.
Shi Qingxue pouted her mouth and said unwillingly, “This matter is spread all over the city. Do you think that he doesn’t know it? Either he has no way to handle this, or he is dealing with it. We don’t have to bother him with this kind of thing.”
Xia Mang raised her eyebrows in surprise. She stared at Shi Qingxue and didn’t speak for a long time.
Perhaps Shi Qingxue didn’t notice that her words didn’t only show her understanding of Mo Junyang, but contained her trust and dependence.
Xia Mang had never seen that Shi Qingxue could trust in anyone to such an extent before, not even Mo Junhao.
Although Mo Junyang was strong and powerful, the trust was too strange.
Xia Mang almost thought that an outsider pretended to be her master when she didn’t notice. Of course, this was impossible.
Shi Qingxue didn’t know the strange thoughts in Xia Mang’s mind. When she mentioned Mo Junyang, her mood suddenly lightened up, and she couldn’t help smiling, “You can rest assured! Mo Junyang is full of tricks and he is unwilling to suffer losses. He won’t sit around and wait for failures. Maybe he has already begun to make plans!”
Xia Mang frowned, reminding her in a small voice, “His Excellency is the noble eldest son rewarded by the Emperor. How could you call him by his name?”
Shi Qingxue paused, she just realized that she said the wrong words. She scratched her head annoyingly and said embarrassingly, “I am used to it.”
She didn’t know that Mo Junyang was reborn before, so she still pretended to call his respectful appellation. At present, all the secrets were revealed, so she didn’t even bother to pretend while mentioning Mo Junyang.
“Sixth Lady, do you like King Rui’s eldest son?” Xia Mang suddenly asked.
Shi Qingxue was choked by these words, coughing fiercely. She looked at Xia Mang in disbelief and yelled, “Xia Mang, what are you talking about?”
Xia Mang’s eyes were bright, and she said frankly, “If you don’t like him, how will you allow him to be so close to you?”
Shi Qingxue sighed helplessly, “Isn’t that what he wants?”
In fact, she planned to keep a long distance with Mo Junyang before. As long as she kept her distance with him, his love would be eroded by time and distance. Besides, she didn’t think that Mo Junyang, who had been King Rui’s eldest son rewarded, would love her so much, who was just such a little girl.
But Mo Junyang’s stubbornness was horrible, not to mention that this stubborn Mo Junyang was still the former one, which meant that his affection for her was not a momentary love, but an obsession accumulated for a long period.
This made her more difficult!
Xia Mang looked at Shi Qingxue, who was in a dilemma, and pointed out, “If you don’t like him, how will you allow him to be so close to you?”
In the past, how unsympathetic Shi Qingxue was to her admirers, Xia Mang witnessed it all. She wouldn’t even give them a chance, so how could she give the other party the opportunity to entangle with her?
Shi Qingxue was stunned, staring at Xia Mang in surprise for a moment. Then she suddenly thought how she got along with Mo Junyang these days.
There were too many matters having crossed the boundary!
Shi Qingxue’s eyes dimmed, and after a long time, she whispered, “I get it.”
Xia Mang didn’t know what Shi Qingxue was referring to, but Qingxue didn’t give her the opportunity to ask. Then she said, “Okay. You send someone to the house of Shi Baojin later to check what she is up to lately.”
As for this, Xia Mang knew it before she went there to ask, so she quickly replied, “It is said that Third Lady often goes out recently, and has close contact with the lady in the Family of the Minister of Ministry of Revenue.”
“Huh? The Shi Family and the Minister of Ministry of Revenue haven’t had much contact with each other. Isn’t Third Uncle always in the party of the Fourth Prince? Why does she get connected with the person in the party of the Third Prince?” Shi Qingxue frowned. Could it be that Shi Baojin became so capable that she could win officials for Mo Junhao?
Xia Mang sneered contemptuously and said concisely, “The second son in the Family of the Minister of Ministry of Revenue is still unmarried.”
