Chapter 2039: Lord Shaoâs Relative
Since it involved Shao Yunduan, Qiao Xuan was adamant about maintaining confidentiality.
Although the two young ladies were engrossed in the spectacle, they were compelled to depart as the protagonist barred their viewing.
For some inexplicable reason, Qiao Xuan exuded such authority that they felt a twinge of fear.
When Zixian escorted them downstairs, she divulged Qiao Xuanâs connection and cautioned them to uphold secrecy, refraining from disclosing any inappropriate informationâŠ
The two young ladies were utterly shaken. How could they dare to prattle about the Eight Trigrams? They fervently pledged to maintain silence and hastily departed.
It was no surprise that woman possessed such a commanding presence. She happened to be the Prefectâs spouse.
Tsk, she had it coming. Her attendant had mistreated Lord Shaoâs heir, and even Lord Shaoâs kin couldnât interveneâŠ
Tang Fanghua and her attendant sneered, finally assuaging their indignation.
Lvmei believed her words had rattled Qiao Xuan and the others, fueling her smugness. She huffed, âApologize, and all will be forgiven. Otherwise, hmph!â
Qiao Xuan shot a glance at Liqiu and remarked composedly, âHas this individual confessed? If not, continue engaging with her until sheâs ready to come clean.â
âUnderstood, Madam!â
Liqiu and the others immediately thrust their hands forward assertively, bombarding her with questions. Lvying shrieked incessantly.
Tang Fanghua and Lvmei were incredulous!
âHow dare you!â
âYouâre the audacious one!â Qiao Xuan retorted sarcastically. âBeing Lord Shaoâs relatives means little here. Heâs a rational man and wonât intervene on your behalf! Besides, your claim to kinship with him is dubious at best.â
âIf thatâs the case, Lord Shao truly has the misfortune of having relatives like you! Youâve besmirched his reputation! Do you think heâll spare you once he learns of this?â
Tang Fanghua stammered, âFine, fine. You⊠you dare to⊠Do you have the guts to reveal your identity and whereabouts? I want to know which family you belong to!â
Lvying spat hatefully, âDonât act like youâre afraid. Youâre quite capable, arenât you?â
Qiao Xuan grinned. âYouâre demanding my identity and address? Youâre not worthy, and I fear youâd be overwhelmed. I know this establishment well. If you seek retribution, just return here.â
Zixian also smiled, signifying her concurrence with Qiao Xuanâs stance. She remained composed and unruffled.
Tang Fanghua and her attendant were both incensed and taken aback. They hadnât anticipated such brazenness from the woman before them!
Truly, they didnât know the vastness of the heavens and the earth!
âFine!â Tang Fanghua ground her teeth, shooting a fierce glare at Qiao Xuan. She spat out harshly, âDo you think Iâm bluffing? Just you wait! Youâll regret this!â
Qiao Xuan sneered in response.
Tang Fanghua felt her blood boiling, nearly reaching the point of nausea.
She refused to let this slide. Absolutely not.
This woman clearly underestimated the gravity of the situation. Perhaps she believed he was bluffing and assumed she could make him pay the price. If she didnât make her kneel and beg for mercy, she wouldnât let her off the hook.
Lvyingâs endurance waned.
Realizing his master couldnât rescue him, trapped and unable to overpower Qiao Xuan, every part of his face, head, arms, and body throbbed with pain.
The humiliation nearly made him vomit blood.
Fear gripped her.
Regret consumed her.
Had she known the ferocity and arrogance of the madwoman in this dingy place, she would have never dared such a reckless act.
