âThird miss, our second miss personally wrote the invitation for you, you actually dare to put up an ugly arrogance and donât want to go? If it wasnât because second miss remembered you, this third miss, do you think that Iâd want to make this trip on this hot day?â
Fei Cui talked so much but had been directly rejected by Murong Qi Qi, making her lose face. At this time, Fei Cui was so angry that her cheeks had turned red. Her lips poured out a lot of nasty words.
âWhy donât you go look at who you are? You really think you are someone important? Speaking frankly, you are just rubbish. You actually dared to show colors.â
Originally, Fei Cui was Murong Qi Qiâs head maid. Because she looked down on third missâs incompetence, she went to rely on Murong Xin Lian. Now, she is her confidante. If it wasnât because she knew that today Murong Qi Qi needed to come, Fei Cui wouldâve been too lazy to talk so much with this rubbish.
Murong Qi Qi narrowed her eyes and looked at Fei Cuiâs mouth. She didnât even calculate yet with Fei Cui for the things of the past. She didnât expect that Fei Cuiâs attitude had turned for the worst. One after another ârubbishâ coming out of her mouth, really made Murong Qi Qiâs heart grow hairs.
âAre you done?â
Murong Qi Qiâs voice became very cold. Su Mei and Su Yue, who were familiar with her, understood that this was the foreshadow of missâs anger.
âYo, I canât even talk? Who in the capital doesnât know that Murong third miss canât practice martial arts? Could it be that you are afraid that people will talk about it, ah?! Youâre so dull, that even the people around you have the same stupid look as you!â
Fei Cui seemed to have not noticed that the surroundings have turned cold. In the end, she also criticized Su Mei and Su Yue who were standing behind Murong Qi Qi.
With extreme annoyance, Murong Qi Qi coldly said one sentence: âSlap her mouth!â
Not waiting for Fei Cui to hear clearly, Su Mei had already appeared in front of her. âPa paâ two slaps on her face.
These past few days had bored Su Mei to death. Seeing Fei Cui âbullyingâ miss like this, her hands had long itched. So, just as the command left Murong Qi Qiâs mouth, Su Mei rushed forward. The speed was fast. Fei Cui had no time to dodge.
Su Mei was someone who practiced martial arts. The strength of her hand was great. With just two slaps, Fei Cui became confused and disoriented. Her eyes were seeing stars and two rows of red blood flew out of her nose.
After Fei Cui came to, she saw the smiling Su Mei and she touched her nose. Her hands were full of warm blood. Fei Cui immediately screamed: âYou! You dare to hit me?!â
âWhat about it? The one I hit is you, this darn thing!â
Su Mei raised her eyes and rolled her wrists.
âThing that doesnât have eyes. Actually dare to bully our miss. Beating you is already light!â
âAh, ah, ah, ah! Iâll kill you!â
When had Fei Cui suffered like this? Seeing the maid around Murong Qi Qi being so âarrogantâ, fire pounced in her head. With her head bowed, she rushed directly at Su Meiâs chest.
Not waiting for Fei Cui to touch Su Mei, Su Yue at one side stuck out her foot, hit Fei Cuiâs chest and directly sent Fei Cui flying out.
âPeng......â
Donât know if it was Su Yue who did it intentionally or if itâs Fei Cui who was unlucky, but when she fell, her head hid the back of the rockery. She immediately felt dizzy. She touched again. Her hand was full of blood. Fei Cui cried and screamed: âIncredible, killing people, ah! Come quickly. Ah! Third miss wants to kill someone, ah!â
Because of Fei Cuiâs loud voice, not a moment had passed before it attracted a group of people watching. When Murong Xin Lian heard the news, she also hurried over.
âFei Cui, what happened to you?â
When she saw Fei Cuiâs swollen cheeks and the face full of bloodstains, Murong Xin Lian almost didnât recognize her. If it wasnât because she saw Fei Cuiâs clothes, Murong Xin Lian wouldnât have thought that this person with the pig face was actually Fei Cui!
âWoo woo woo, second miss, you must seek justice for this slave, ah! This slave came with second missâs invitation to invite third miss, but third miss didnât even say something and let them beat this slave. This slave came with good intentions but has been beaten like this. Third miss also said that she wants to kill me. Second miss must save me, ah!â
Fei Cui was a person whoâs good at reversing the black and the white. Today, she had suffered at Murong Qi Qiâs, no matter what, she couldnât swallow this anger. Fortunately, Murong Xin Lian was now here, she might as well make the matter big. After all, Murong Qi Qiâs reputation was already very bad, a bit more wouldnât do it much harm.
Hearing Fei Cuiâs words, Murong Xin Lian was full of doubts. Hadnât Murong Qi Qi always been weak and incompetent? When had her gut turned so big?
But it didnât look as though Fei Cui was lying and the wound on her face was truly there. It really existed. It seemed that something must have happened.
âThird little sister, is what Fei Cui said the truth? Was it really you who hit her? It was I who had told her to come invite you to admire the moon tonight. Even if you didnât want to go, thereâs no need to vent on a maid, ah! What did Fei Cui do so wrong that you had used such a ruthless hand?â
Murong Xin Lianâs reputation in Murong fu1 had always been very good. She was beautiful and more approachable than Murong Qing Lian. She didnât have the arrogance of a miss, so everyone in the fu really liked this second miss.
At this time, hearing Murong Xin Lian say that Murong Qi Qi had hit Fei Cui without any reason, everyone began to whisper. The things they whispered about were all about how bad third miss was.
She was indeed the goddess of pretending, ah! Murong Qi Qi couldnât help but clap in her heart. It seemed that Murong Xin Lian was really popular in the fu. Everyone was speaking up for Murong Xin Lian.
âSecond big sister, the matter is not like that......â
Murong Qi Qi opened her mouth and said softly.
âItâs Fei Cui who said that I am a rubbish and that I didnât even deserve to admire the moon with second big sister. She also said that Iâm an ugly duckling, second big sister is the white swan. I donât even deserve to clean second big sisterâs shoes!â
The moment Murong Qi Qiâs words left her mouth, Murong Xin Lian froze. She knew very well what kind of person Fei Cui was. These words being said by Fei Cui was somewhat believable. After all, she usually said the same in front of Fei Cui.
âShe also forced me to give the position of Jing wangfei2 to second big sister. She said that only a beauty like second big sister is worthy to be standing by Jing wangâs side. She also said that you are a match made from heaven, a perfect match. And I am just a rubbish who canât practice martial arts. I should just disappear early to not hinder your roadâ
Murong Qi Qi sobbed. Her small shoulders shrugged. Coupled with that pair of watery eyes, she seemed particularly delicate and pitiful. The people whoâd just now denounced Murong Qi Qi, after hearing that, the way they looked at Murong Xin Lian and Fei cui began to change.
âI was thinking that second big sister is usually such a good person, how can such this slave have been taught by you? This is simply a discredit to second big sister reputation. So I couldnât take it anymore and said a few words to her. But then she slapped herself two times and also slammed her head against the stone. Later, itâs what youâve seen......â
âYouâre talking nonsense! The one who hit me is obviously her! Donât believe her!â
Seeing Murong Qi Qiâs ability to turn the truth around was even better than hers, Fei Cui became anxious.
âIf the slap on my face was done by me, how could the fingerprints be like this?! Donât listen to this rubbishâs nonsense!â
