980: Chapter 980: Not Yet Settled (5) 980: Chapter 980: Not Yet Settled (5) Unfortunately, the two people under the control of the drug couldnât separate, leaving the servants helpless.
Shen Jiashi almost stumbled and fell, and couldnât help but glare fiercely at Shen Yilan.
Shen Yilan was also dumbfounded.
Where was Yang Ruxin theyâd agreed upon?
How did it become Xiaomei?
âMadam Shen, since you have family affairs to handle, we will take our leave now,â Ma Lushi said, her mood quite gloomy.
What on earth was all this?
âMadam Ma, our family is unfortunate.
Another day, I will be sure to visit and apologize,â Shen Jiashi said, knowing the banquet was doomed and that she had to send the outsiders away first.
âWhere is Yang Ruxin?â Shen Yilanâs face looked extremely unpleasant.
She knew todayâs incident was ruined and that her mother would definitely vent her anger on her.
It was all Yang Ruxinâs fault; how could she have run off?
âMiss Shen, Iâm right here,â Yang Ruxin walked out from behind the plum tree.
âYouâŠâ Shen Yilan jumped in fright, âHow come you are here?â
âXinxin, are you alright?â Wei Yao was the first to rush over, âYou scared me to deathâŠâ
âWhat could possibly happen to me?â Yang Ruxin said with a confused face, âIâve been over there all along.
Xiaomei said she wanted to go to the outhouse, but I waited for a long time and she didnât come back, so I thought I would go back the same way I came.
I didnât expect to hear your voices and came overâŠâ
Peng Mingziâs brows furrowed slightly, her gaze towards Yang Ruxin now contained a bit of scrutiny.
Yang Ruxin just smiled innocently at her.
Shen Yilanâs face turned even paler.
âMiss Shen doesnât seem to look well.
Itâs so cold.
Be careful not to catch a coldâŠâ Yang Ruxin reminded her thoughtfully.
Shen Yilan managed to force a smile with difficulty.
âXinxin, something happened to the Shen Family.
Letâs leave,â Ma Lushi frowned slightly, then called to Yang Ruxin to take their leave.
âWe havenât even eaten yet,â Yang Ruxin murmured discontentedly.
âYouâre still thinking about food?â Wei Yao frowned, âDo you realize?
Just now a girl said you were in a room with a manâŠâ
âWhat?â Yang Ruxin exclaimed in shock, then stopped in her tracks, âWho is trying to ruin my reputation?
No, I canât leave like this.
The Shen Family needs to give me an explanation⊠Otherwise, how can I face anyone in the future?â
Because they hadnât gone far, Shen Jiashi heard everything clearly and couldnât help but smile bitterly, âMiss Yang, itâs all gossip spread by the servantsâŠâ
âCan servants gossip about the guests without the masterâs permission?â Yang Ruxin scoffed coldly, âThe Shen Familyâs hospitality is truly exemplaryâŠâ
âI will surely punish them severely.â
âThen bring the person here for confrontation and punish them before me, otherwise, it wonât be over,â Yang Ruxinâs attitude became firm, âIf I am not satisfied, I will have my godfather seek justice.
If he canât do it, I can ask Duke Ba to give his verdict, or even implore the Crown Prince⊠Even country girls are human, right?
I have no affiliation with your family.
You were insistent on having me come here, just to ruin my reputation?â
âI was actually wondering about that just now; it is indeed the case,â Ma Lushi quickly realized and immediately stopped, âJust now, that maid was shouting about how Xinxin was behaving in front of so many people.
Really, if we left like this, we wouldnât be able to clear things upâŠâ
