In fact, Yuezheng Ting might end up being in a terrible situation.
Did she really think that she could turn his mind around? How stupid she was!
Qiao Xuan did not care about what she was thinking. But she did not want Xie Jingrong to get set up by this horrible trick.
Pondering over this, and seeing the villagers arriving very soon, Qiao Xuan walked out with Lixia and Liqiu, acknowledging them. “Young Master Xie, Lady Yuezheng, greetings!’
Yuezheng Tings face changed. She snapped loudly. “What are you doing here?”
Xie Jingrong smiled after a moment of surprise. “Mrs. Shao! Greetings!’
Yuezheng Ting was so annoyed and said with displeasure, “Mrs. Shao, didn’t you see that Brother Xie and I are here? You should leave us alone!”
Qiao Xuan was very surprised. “Didn’t you run into each other accidentally? Why are you dodging?”
Yuezheng Ting almost wanted Qiao Xuan to prove that she and Xie Jingrong were alone here. But Qiao Xuan did not seem to be interested in thinking it that way.
She knew that Qiao Xuan was countering her.
Xie Jingrong smiled loudly. “Mrs. Shao, you are right!”
Then, he suddenly seemed to think of something and threw a speculative look at Yuezheng Ting. He realized that he must have missed something.
But with Qiao Xuan here, he was totally assured.
Qiao Xuan was cursed by Yuezheng Ting inwardly repeatedly. She interrupted rudely when she saw Qiao Xuan and Xie Jingrong starting to talk. “Mrs. Shao, we are here, Where are you headed to, maybe you should leave now?”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “It doesn’t happen every day that we run into each other.
We can walk together. 1 am not planning to go anywhere specific.”
Xie Jingrong developed a bad feeling towards Yuezheng Ting. How could she say such misleading words?
So, he said to Yuezheng Ting, “Lady Yuezheng, watch out what you say. You and I just ran into each other, that is all.”
Yuezheng Ting felt so ashamed when she heard him speak so indifferently.
Suddenly, some farmers appeared on the path and they were shocked seeing the scene as well.
So was Xie Jingrong.
Then, he threw a cold look at Yuezheng Ting and looked imposing. Yuezheng Ting was panicking as if she had been seen through.
“Brother Xie, let’s just… just go!’
Xie Jingrong was not stupid. The farmers suddenly appeared for a reason, and they seemed confused when they reached the place. There was definitely something amiss here.
He almost understood what was going on.
After all, he had witnessed and heard many conspiracies happening in inner mansions.
But he had not expected that Yuezheng Ting would have dared to do such a thing.
“What are you doing here? Did she get you here?”
Xie Jingrong threw a look at Yuezheng Ting and asked them straightforwardly.
“Well…” The farmers turned to Yuezheng Ling subconsciously, looking hesitant.
Qiao Xuan almost did not want to continue to watch this.
These farmers had no idea how to conceal their inner expressions. They were just asking Yuezheng Ting through their expressions. ‘Should we tell the truth?’
Yuezheng Ting snapped at them. “What are you looking at us for? I don’t know
That was totally different from what they had promised. They only had 5 qian as advance and had thought that they would get 10 liang in total. So, they panicked..
