“Muqing, it doesn’t matter if you did something wrong. Just apologize to Father properly. We’re a family and we will forgive you.”

Old Master Xia kept a straight face as he waited for Xia Muqing to admit her mistake. Then, he would use the family methods to teach her a lesson.

This was their usual tactic.

Xia Muqing chuckled lightly. “What did I do wrong?”

“You—Churan, don’t even talk to this rebellious girl. She just doesn’t change, just like her mother.”

Old Master Xia was infuriated by Xia Muqing’s attitude.

Xia Muqing’s expression changed and she stared at Old Master Xia coldly. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Although Xia Churan was shocked by Xia Muqing’s attitude, it was a good idea for Xia Muqing to infuriate Old Master Xia.

She continued, “Muqing, you don’t have to deny it. We didn’t tell anyone about you. Only our family members know about it. Don’t worry about your reputation.”

Xia Churan gritted her teeth in anger at the thought of it.

If this matter got out, Xia Muqing’s reputation would be completely ruined.

And then, her mother might be able to become the real mistress of the Xia family, instead of being an unofficial one now. She was also being implicated.

However, Old Master Xia didn’t agree, and Madam Ruan also felt that it wasn’t a good idea. She was afraid that it would affect both Churan and Chuxing’s marriages.

If they couldn’t spread the news beyond the Xia residence, they shall spread the news within the household.

Now, everyone in the Xia residence knew about the matter and everyone despised their young mistress, Xia Muqing.

For the first time, Xia Muqing scrutinized Xia Churan.

Xia Churan sensed that Xia Muqing had changed.

“Half-sister, what have I done that calls for a need for me to repent?”

Xia Churan’s face twisted when she heard her calling her Half-sister.

In order to please Xia Churan in the past, Xia Muqing had been addressing her as Sister.

Fortunately, Xia Churan had strong control over her emotions and she immediately regained her usual gentle expression.

Acting as if she was tolerating an insensible younger sister, she replied, “Sister, you still want to deny it? We already know about this. Father also knows about it.”

Xia Churan used Old Master Xia’s name to intimidate Xia Muqing. Even if she had changed, so what?

Xia Muqing was just being a little bold. She didn’t believe that she wasn’t afraid of Old Master Xia.

If it was in the past, Xia Muqing indeed wouldn’t dare to. But now, she was smiling.

“I was transported out of the Xia residence and I woke up in a strange place that day. There must be evidence. Before I came back, no one knew what happened to me? How did these rumors come about? It must be the culprit.”

Xia Muqing stared straight at Xia Churan as she spoke. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

With Madam Ruan’s personality, she probably only wanted her to die. So if she had the opportunity, she would definitely eliminate her immediately.

Xia Chuxing had no brains at all.

So that left only Xia Churan.

Xia Churan was feeling intimidated by Xia Muqing’s gaze. Her intuition told her that she was in danger.

Realizing that Xia Muqing had gotten even more beautiful, jealousy and hatred flashed across her eyes. She was indeed the one who planned everything.

She had always wanted to ruin Xia Muqing’s reputation because she was afraid that her face would be exposed to the public.

She understood the charm of her face better than anyone else.

Noticing the suspicion in Old Master Xia’s eyes, Xia Churan was worried that Xia Muqing really had evidence. So she didn’t dare to provoke her anymore.

She coaxed Old Master Xia and was about to speak as she glanced at Xia Muqing.

Xia Muqing ignored and walked past her to return to her own courtyard.

“Hmph! She’s just a useless bum! What’s there to be proud of!” Xia Chuxing burst in disdain.
