Chapter 274: Chapter 274 - Choking Them
The maid instantly realized what Cang Susu meant and spoke harshly with a glower at Murong Xue, “How dare you let your dog attack my lady!”
Murong Xue gave a brittle laugh . Cang Susu was vying with her for Beibei just now . After she got bitten, she blamed it on Murong Xue shamelessly . “Didn’t Miss Cang just now say that the puppy was yours? Why does it suddenly become mine now?” Murong Xue said .
The maid whispered nervously, “That’s because my lady accidentally mistook it as her dog . ”
Murong Xue curled up the corners of her mouth and looked at the maid condescendingly . “Beibei behaved well in my arms just now,” Murong Xue said . “If Miss Cang didn’t come and rob it, how could it attack Miss Cang? She brought this on herself . ”
“You…” the maid was choked with anger, pointing at Murong Xue . “This girl is a bit sharp-tongued . My lady did walk in front of the puppy before it hurt her . My lady is indeed unreasonable,” the maid thought inwardly . Thinking of that, she sneered, “But it is a fact that your dog has hurt my lady . You should give my lady an explanation . ”
“What explanation do you want?” Murong Xue asked carelessly, even without raising her eyelids .
“The puppy is gone and we can’t find it now . You, the owner of it, have to apologize on its behalf . Please go down on your knees and kowtow to my lady,” the maid said word by word with her eyes full of pride .
Murong Xue shot a piercing glare at the maid who made up lies with her lady to rob Beibei . Scratches on Cang Susu was just a lesson given by Beibei . It was impossible for Murong Xue to apologize to Cang Susu . “In your dreams!” Murong Xue said .
Mercilessly turned down, the maid glowered at Murong Xue and spoke harshly to her, “My lady is the fiancée of His Highness . His Highness won’t spare you as your dog hurt his fiancée . ”
Murong Xue was rendered speechless . Here was another bullying under the banner of Gong Qianyu . Why was he surrounded by a batch of people like those bullies? Instead of serving their duties, they just caused trouble . Gong Qianyu would be held back by them sooner or later .
The maid interpreted Murong Xue’s silence as it that Murong Xue was frightened by Gong Qianyu’s identity . The maid’s mouth curled up with an arrogant smile . “There is still time to apologize to my lady,” said the maid .
Screw you! The one who did the wrong thing wasn’t Murong Xue! She would not bother to talk to a batch of unreasonable shameless people .
With a chill flashing in Murong Xue’s dark eyes, she said, “Wuhen, let’s go . ”
“Yes!” the driver responded in a deep voice . With a long whip in his hand hitting on horse, the horse dashed forward .
As the carriage drove forward, clouds of dust picked up from the tires billowed to Cang Susu’s and her maid’s faces and almost choked them .
Cang Susu covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and struggled to stand straight in the dust . Watching the receding carriage, she gave her servant an order, “Go check that girl’s identity . ”
“Yes!” a servant answered .
Cang Susu shot a piercing glare . She was the daughter of the prime minister . All famous ladies in the capital catered to her and no one dared to stand against her . How dare that girl manipulate her and embarrass her?
Beside a picturesque lake, the house bought by Ouyang Shaochen was magnificent with blue bricks and red tiles . There were two stone lions at the gate, above which a bronze plaque engraved with the powerful word “Pavilion” was hung .
In the house, green trees and beautiful flowers came into view first . Dense branches and leaves kept most of the scorching sunlight out so that the sultry summer air was also blocked outside . People would feel cool and refreshed as the breeze blew .
Walking on the winding flagstone path, Murong Xue couldn’t help but gave admiration, “The air here is sweet and the layout is splendid . This house is wee-designed . ”
Ouyang Shaochen’s mouth curled up into a smile . He said blandly, “Are you praising me?”
Murong Xue was startled, “What? This is your design?”
“Yeah!” Ouyang Shaochen nodded with an imperceptible smile in his dark eyes . Everything here was designed for her . It was great that she liked it .
“Your Highness, Miss Murong, dinner’s ready,” Xun Feng stepped forward and said respectfully .
Ouyang Shaochen nodded and said to Murong Xue, “It’s getting late so let’s eat first . ”
“Sure . ” Murong Xue nodded and walked forward with them . During the long journey, they hadn’t had a decent meal . Now that they reached the capital of Nanjiang, she wouldn’t miss any nice food to recover her strength .
On the table in the pavilion covered various dishes, which were overflowed with fragrance and almost made them drool .
Murong Xue washed her hands before she sat by the table and dived in elegantly .
Sitting next to her, Ouyang Shaochen looked at her blandly . “Do you like it?”
“Yes!” Murong Xue nodded . Most of the dishes were her favorites .
“Glad you like it . ” Ouyang Shaochen nodded . He pondered for a while before he continued blandly, “To kill Gong Qianze…there’s a long way for Gong Qianyu to go . ”
“I know that,” Murong Xue said with a sullen look . “Gong Qianze is a gentle man and he’s good at gaining people’s trust while Gong Qianyu is pure and quiet and looks proud in people’s eyes . Plus, he doesn’t have many acquaintances, so he’s got few people to use . ”
It was indeed a huge challenge for Gong Qianyu to deal with Gong Qianze alone who was much more competitive .
“You ready to help him?” Ouyang Shaochen fixed his mysterious eyes on Murong Xue .
Murong Xue blinked her eyes . “Well… I’m still thinking about it . But Gong Qianze poisoned me before, I have to settle scores with him . ”
To settle scores with Gong Qianze actually would help Gong Qianyu out, indirectly though .
With a sullen look, Ouyang Shaochen was ready to say something . But Murong Xue interrupted him, “The dishes are getting cold . Let’s finish the meal first . We can discuss it later . ”
Watching Murong Xue who couldn’t divert from the meal, Ouyang Shaochen flashed with a subtle smile . “OK!” he nodded . When he picked up chopsticks, a black feather arrow swished in .
