Chapter 2085: Preparing to Intervene (Part 3)

Yang Ruxin had no feelings towards the Guan Family’s people and matters.

Guan Qingyue’s heart had somewhat twisted. She used to look down on Yang Ruxin, but she never expected Yang Ruxin could reach a height that even jealousy couldn’t touch.

Fortunately, she had a capable brother, who was now a successful candidate in the imperial examination, a position that could become an official. As long as things went smoothly, she could become a proper official’s daughter in the future.

However, even so, because of Yang Ruxin, she felt no sense of admiration from others in the village.

She was even distanced by the girls of the same village.

All of this was because of Yang Ruxin, because of her viciousness and selfishness, which led her to such circumstances.

Therefore, she hated Yang Ruxin, and she even hated everyone who was close to her.

Just now, she was in a daze under the tree and didn’t expect to overhear Li Xiang’s secret. Although she didn’t hear it clearly, she could generally guess that Li Xiang had a private relationship with a man.

Actually, if they hadn’t lowered their voices afterward, she wouldn’t have been exposed.

That Xie Tai had been to the village before. Although he came to find Gu Qingheng, she seemed to have seen him from a distance. He was really handsome and the owner of a manor, undoubtedly wealthy.

Her brother was already a successful candidate in the imperial examination, and she was going to come of age next month. But why had no such outstanding man confessed to her yet?

Thinking like this, the jealousy in her heart began to overflow. It’s one thing for Yang Dani to have good fortune, but what is that Li Xiang? Wasn’t she just Yang Dani’s lackey?

Why could she gain Xie Tai’s favor?

No, she must destroy all of this.

Yang Ruxin did not know that Guan Qingyue, due to hatred, was brewing something bad. In the evening, she showed the bracelet to Gu Qingheng.

"Brother Xie has actually taken a liking to Li Xiang?" Gu Qingheng found it somewhat unbelievable.

"It’s certain that he’s interested, but whether he likes her or not is another matter," Yang Ruxin toyed with the bracelet. "Moreover, such behavior is rather reckless, one misstep could ruin a girl’s reputation." She didn’t care about such reputations, but that didn’t mean others didn’t.

"So, are you planning to get involved?" Gu Qingheng raised an eyebrow.

"Yes." Yang Ruxin nodded. "It’s just a matter of delivering a message, why wouldn’t I help? If Xie Tai is only looking for a woman to bear his children, he should give up early. A marriage without love is only a tragedy, especially for the woman. But if he truly has feelings for Xiaoxiang, then we can give our blessings." Even if it’s not an IE world, as long as there’s love, those societal gaps can be bridged.

"Alright then," Gu Qingheng smiled. "In a few days, let’s head over to Xie Manor. It just so happens to coincide with the Wulin gathering, maybe we can journey together."

Yang Ruxin nodded.

Xie Manor.

Madam Xie Hushi was pacing anxiously in the courtyard, constantly asking the servant, "Has Atai come back yet?"

The servant shook his head, "Madam, the master should be back soon."

"Oh, he’s been out for over three months. Why isn’t he back yet?" Xie Hushi sighed, "I just can’t feel at ease."

"Cousin Aunt, Brother Atai will certainly be fine," said a pretty girl with dimples, hugging Xie Hushi’s arm. "You mustn’t worry. What if something happens to you, how sad would Brother Atai be?"
