After s.h.i.+ Qingxue asked in suspicion, she looked at Mo Junyang with curious eyes, trying to find a clue in the expression of him.

She always thought before that it was Mo Junyu who had been reborn, having changed her fate and the destiny of this future demon in front of her.

But at present, she couldn't lie to herself any more.

Although Mo Junyang was showing his gentleness, tenderness and harmlessness, once he became cruel, he would be exactly the same as the previous life. It was obviously...

s.h.i.+ Qingxue took a deep breath, and then thought of these days when they got along. She was startled and sweated.

Before Mo Junyang answered, she was already afraid to hear the answer.

"What's wrong?" Mo Junyang looked at her with concern, not understanding her behavior.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue quickly shook her head, and then glanced at him secretly. She saw that Mo Junyang's look was normal and he was completely not at panic for she had revealed his shocking secret.

Did she guess wrong?

But this was not right. Even if he was not, Mo Junyang should not be so ignorant when he heard her question.

Mo Junyang looked at her and made sure that there was nothing wrong with her before he asked, "What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly. Could you say it again?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue then noticed that because of her nervousness, she didn't speak the word "Reborn" out. No wonder there was no response.

But when she needed to ask again, she couldn't make a sound anyway.

"No, nothing." s.h.i.+ Qingxue stuttered and denied her words before. She was so embarra.s.sed that she didn't know where to put her hands.

She felt that what she had just asked was stupid and wanted to get away from this situation. She saw that s.h.i.+ Baojin was still at the corner, so she hurried over there.

When s.h.i.+ Qingxue turned around, the man's deep eyes were looking at her back without blinking, and his mouth murmured, "Sooner or later I can't hide this in this way..."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue hurried over there and saw Wei Zichao and the beggars standing around s.h.i.+ Baojin. She stopped in fear.

Wei Zichao thought about it, he made the right choice to wave his hand to drive away those beggars, at the same time he took off his cloak and covered it on s.h.i.+ Baojin, so that it wouldn't stain her eyes, and then he made a gesture as letting her pa.s.s.

"Thank you!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue nodded at Wei Zichao gratefully, and stepped forward to check on s.h.i.+ Baojin. Although she was fainted and her clothes couldn't even cover her body, there was no actual injury.

At the same time when Qingxue was relieved, she looked at Mo Junyang in an embarra.s.sing way. After a long while, she begged in a low voice, "I don't know what s.h.i.+ Baojin has done to annoy you. But since I have seen this, I definitely can't watch her raped by those people. So can you..."

She wanted to ask Mo Junyang to let go of s.h.i.+ Baojin, but she felt that she had no right to do that.

She had to say in a lower voice, "Although I don't have many things, if Your Excellency needs me to do anything, I would try my best to achieve it."

Equivalent exchange made no one suffer a loss.

Mo Junyang looked at s.h.i.+ Qingxue calculating her value with a tangled look. His heart couldn't help itching, and he wanted to blurt out, "I want you."

But he couldn't at this moment. It was not the right time.

Mo Junyang had no choice but put on a gentleman's appearance, bore his unhappiness and said generously, "Since Xue has spoken, I should do it for your sake anyway. As long as she will not come to bother me again in the future, I don't mind what s.h.i.+ Baojin has done this time."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was surprised that Mo Junyang was so easy to compromise. Wasn't it said that Mo Junyang would revenge no matter what? No one knew better than her about the fact that one who had provoked him had no good result. How could he let go of s.h.i.+ Baojin so easily this time?

Did Mo Junyang originally plan to stop here, so he made use of this opportunity?

s.h.i.+ Qingxue didn't realize what she meant to Mo Junyang at all. Poor Mo Junyang did her a special favor, but she didn't realize at all.

"Thank you a lot, Brother Yang!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't understand it, but it was always good to get this matter settled.

She no longer thought about it, and called Xia Mang and Dong Shuang to move the fainted s.h.i.+ Baojin back to the house of the s.h.i.+ Family.

As she was about to leave, suddenly she heard Mo Junyang said softly, "It's deep at night. It's rare that you can find such a remote place."

"Well..." s.h.i.+ Qingxue was stiff and found countless excuses in her mind, but she couldn't tell a lie to Mo Junyang.

In the end, she had to give up and answered honestly, "I sent someone to follow s.h.i.+ Baojin."

She was not a fool. Knowing that Third Master's Family always caused trouble, of course she would always get prepared.

"So, you knew what Third Lady did from the beginning?" Mo Junyang's voice was a little colder.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue thought it was bad, and quickly explained, "Of course not. The person I sent out just followed her and didn't dare to astonish her. It was reported to me because her trace was suspicious. But when I arrived, you were no longer in Yixiang Pavilion then."

She didn't expect that in the end, she would become the one to deal with the matter for s.h.i.+ Baojin. If she knew it before, she wouldn't come here. It was all because...

She looked up at Mo Junyang, and then lowered her eyes, muttering, aggrieved, "I am not bad-hearted. How could I watch you trapped by s.h.i.+ Baojin and just stand by indifferently?"

Mo Junyang was surprised for a moment. He didn't expect that her baby would react like this. The reason why she rushed here was that she wanted to save him?

Then if he suppressed it and didn't react in Yixiang Pavilion, s.h.i.+ Qingxue would also appear to save him in time. And he was tricked to have aphrodisiac at that time...

Well, what a vague scene would it be?

What a pity!

Mo Junyang felt pitiful, but he also had to apologize for his misunderstanding s.h.i.+ Qingxue, "Then I have misunderstood you. What s.h.i.+ Baojin has done is really inappropriate. She even dared to..."

He didn't say anything later, and s.h.i.+ Qingxue also felt shameful.

Fortunately, it was Mo Junyang. She didn't realize that domestic shame should not be made public. Instead, she raised her face and looked at Mo Junyang with expectation, "This time, s.h.i.+ Baojin doesn't behave properly. But it will also have influence on the reputation of other sisters in the s.h.i.+ Family. Brother Yang, please be generous and don't let others know about it."

As she spoke, she glanced at Wei Zichao and those beggars.

Wei Zichao trembled.

Mo Junyang understood, and also glanced at Wei Zichao. He looked back at s.h.i.+ Qingxue's s.h.i.+ny big eyes, thinking, "This girl was so tricky! When everything was fine, she called me Mo Junyang or Your Excellency and wouldn't have a closer relations.h.i.+p with me; once she had something to beg me, she would call me Brother Yang, which itched my heart and made me willing to give her everything nice."

What could he do in the future if he was so under her control?

Mo Junyang suddenly felt worried!

In order to hide those messy thoughts, he laughed and joked, "It's about the reputation of other sisters? Your words seem to imply that it has nothing to do with you?"

Mo Junyang was delightful in his heart. Qingxue must know that no matter how bad her reputation was, he would be her greatest support.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue had no idea of Mo Junyang's smug thoughts. Hearing that, her eyes became dark and she murmured in a voice that others could barely hear, "No plans to marry again anyway."

After saying this, she immediately realized that she misbehaved. She chuckled and said, "It's late now. I'll go back home first, and the rest of it is left for Your Excellency to deal with."

Until s.h.i.+ Qingxue walked a long distance, Mo Junyang still stood there in the bleak wind.

Wei Zichao felt sad for his own master, and when they couldn't see s.h.i.+ Qingxue at all, he stepped forward and whispered, "Master, what should I do next?"

Mo Junyang then became conscious from the hit and glanced at him, "Just do as Qingxue has said."

After that, he also went away.

Wei Zichao felt that he was the hardest one!

What did it mean to do as what Sixth Lady had said? Did he have to suicide?

He wanted to have that reliable master back!

In order to move s.h.i.+ Baojin back to the house of the s.h.i.+ Family without anyone knowing it, Xia Mang and Dong Shuang had tried hard. In the end, they couldn't be praised for having done a good deed, but only s.h.i.+ Baojin got the benefits easily.

Dong Shuang wiped the sweat from her forehead, and pretended to spit to s.h.i.+ Baojin who was lying in the bed, "What a dirty person! She even dares to do such a shameless thing. She deserves to be defiled! Why does Sixth Lady act so warm-hearted and save her? As far as I am concerned, she should suffer from it."

Xia Mang did not explain to Dong Shuang why the corruption of s.h.i.+ Baojin's reputation would have influence on other ladies in the s.h.i.+ Family, which was obvious. She simply said, "Sixth Lady has ordered that everything should be the same as usual. And we should make Third Lady think that she has a nightmare when she wakes up. We must clear it up quickly and leave. Otherwise, when the subordinates in Yujin Boudoir come, it would be hard for us to explain."

"I know! Haven't I just cleaned and dressed her? They won't find it!" Dong Shuang still looked mad, but she worked hard when she executed s.h.i.+ Qingxue's order.

The two came quietly and left quietly.

The subordinates of Yujin Boudoir knew nothing about it. Only Xiao Tao, the first-cla.s.s servant of s.h.i.+ Baojin, lost her master and was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, but she didn't dare to report to Zhou Ruyu.

There must be a good show tomorrow.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue listened to the two servants' report and nodded with satisfaction, "You've worked hard for it. You should go back to rest first. As the rest of the matter, we shall talk about it tomorrow."

But Dong Shuang refused to leave, and asked with anger, "Sixth Lady, why did you save Third Lady? She is obviously not a good person..."

Xia Mang was startled by Dong Shuang's criticism, and quickly stepped forward to cover her mouth, apologizing, "Sorry. Dong Shuang is too young and don't know what can't be said. She just felt upset for master. Hope that master won't mind it."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue watched the behaviors of the two and smiled. She raised her hand to stop Xia Mang and said softly, "It doesn't matter. Let go of her!"

When Xia Mang released Dong Shuang, she continued to say, "Although you are servants and I'm the master, we are like sisters. I won't hide things from you. You can say whatever you want in front of me, and I don't mind. Just...

Dong Shuang, there is something that once you say, it will cause trouble, and it may even kill you. I may not be able to save you then. Xia Mang stops you from saying those because she is afraid that you will cause trouble again. Isn't the lesson several days ago enough?"

Dong Shuang's struggling movement froze. Only then did she understand Xia Mang's good intentions, and she could not help but glance at Xia Mang and whispered, "I'm sorry. I just...I thought you stopped me from saying that because you disliked me. I, I won't do it any more!"

Xia Mang was teased by Dong Shuang's obedient behavior, "You have no conscience. You just know my good intentions now. So my kindness before was fed dogs!"

"Ah!" Dong Shuang was anxious and waved her hands. "No, it wasn't fed dogs. It was fed me!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue and Xia Mang, "..."

The two looked at each other, and at last they both laughed out until their bellies ached.

"Well! Dong Shuang, how are you so funny? Didn't you understand that Xia Mang was joking? Well, I can't. I'm gonna laugh to death..." Qingxue even ignored her appearance and hugged her belly laughing and rolling in bed.

Dong Shuang's face turned red and said with embarra.s.sment, "I, I'm not dog! Don't laugh... I won't talk to you!"

She stomped her feet, glared at Xia Mang and ran away.

"Angry?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and pushed Xia Mang, "You caused this trouble. You go deal with her yourself!"

Xia Mang nodded and said to Qingxue carefully before leaving, "Sixth Lady, Dong Shuang is indeed impulsive, but some of her words are correct. Third Lady even whispered your name when she was fainted. I'm afraid that she will hate you in the future."

"This is purely her own thing. Why does she hate me?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue shrugged indifferently. Seeing that Xia Mang looked serious, she still nodded, "I know. I will be careful in the future."

At this time, the two had not expected that s.h.i.+ Baojin's revenge would come right away!
