Feng Lianyi trembled as she could sense doubt in Feng Lianqingâs tone. She clenched her fists hard and smiled bitterly. âI know you wonât believe me. But I, Feng Lianyi, will do what I say. If I really did it, I will admit it, and Iâve proved that before.â
Feng Lianqing did not say anything and looked at Feng Lianyi coldly.
His eyes no longer had the kindness they used to have; instead, they were cold.
âBrother Feng, itâs fine. You wouldnât believe me anyway.â Feng Lianyi smiled and stepped forward. âYou can punish me as you wish, expel me as well! I just wanted to say one more thing in self-defense.â
She paused for a moment and said, âIf I really did it, why did I punish this servant after discovering it? I can wait until you find it to prove it. Moreover, Iâve just sent someone to stop Sister Helian.â
Feng Lianqing seemed not to believe Feng Lianyi. Suddenly, the old housekeeper hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard.
âMaiden Lianyi, youâre really killing me.â The old housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead. âYou told me to stop Young Lady Helian from causing trouble, but Young Lady Helian was no longer there when I ran over there. It just makes me tired running all over for nothing.â
The old housekeeper was too old to do such things.
If this matter had nothing to do with Helian Yue, he would not have run around at his old age.
But as soon as he heard Feng Lianyi said that Helian Yue would cause trouble again, he was so worried that he hurriedly ran out, not taking even taking a break on his way to the inn.
Feng Lianqing smiled faintly at Feng Lianqing, âYou donât believe my words, but do you not even believe the old housekeeperâs words? If I really wanted to harm her, why would I let the old housekeeper stop Helian Yue?â
Indeed, he did not believe Feng Lianyiâs words.
But the old housekeeper had only been loyal to the general all his life, and he would trust anything he said.
âDid this matter... Really have nothing to do with Lianyi?â
âYou young people solve your own matters. Next time donât torment me like this.â The old housekeeper sighed, âGeneral is not here, and I am already tired. Young Lady Helian, please behave. Otherwise, General will lecture you again when he comes back.â
Helian Yue clenched her fists tightly and looked at Feng Lianyi.
âI donât believe it. It must be you who did that!â
Feng Lianyi smiled helplessly. âSister Helian, I know you donât like me. You donât have to stare at me like that. I repeat, I wonât deny what Iâve done, and I wonât admit what I havenât.â
âYou...â
âEnough!â Feng Lianqing felt a headache coming. He looked at Feng Lianyi and warned her again, âLianyi, I hope you will remember what you said. If you cause trouble again, I will not wait for Master to return. I will kick you out myself.â
Feng Lianyi clenched her fists and took a deep breath.
âYou donât have to remind me. Iâd also feel embarrassed to stay in General Manor if I made the same mistake again.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Feng Lianqing said no more and turned back to Helian Yue. âYoung Lady Helian, you should leave first.â
âBrother Lianqing!â Helian Yueâs face turned pale. âAlright, we wonât talk about todayâs matter. But what about before? What about the fact that she has harmed Xiao Qing before?â
Feng Lianqing rubbed his throbbing temples. âWhen Master returns, he will deal with it.â
âAnd what would happen then? Is Brother Lianqing still going to speak up for her and allow her to remain in General Manor?â Helian Yue glared furiously. âMoreover, no one knows when Grandfather Tian Ya will return. Can you guarantee that she wonât find trouble with Xiao Qing during this time?â
