Fortunately, she was still breathing.

She worked up the courage to touch Mo Yuan’s face again. It was warm and smooth.

Shen Yijia heaved a sigh of relief and sat up straight again. She pointed at Mo Yuan’s face with a strange expression. “What happened to your face?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Why did she have to make a face to scare people?

Mo Yuan froze. She suppressed the smile on her face and said awkwardly, “Thirty Thousand told me I had to smile often. That way, Miss will be in a good mood.”

Shen Yijia was stunned for a moment. If she didn’t hear the last sentence, she would definitely laugh at Mo Yuan.

But now, she felt a warmth in her heart. Regardless of whether she was the person Mo Yuan was looking for, Mo Yuan was certain that she was the one.

She stopped smiling and said solemnly, “Mo Yuan, you don’t have to force yourself or change yourself to suit anyone. You just have to do what you like.”

After being serious for a few seconds, Shen Yijia glanced at Mo Yuan and smiled evilly. “Of course, it’s better if you smile often, but that comes naturally when you feel happy. The feeling comes from here.”

With that, she quickly placed her hand on Mo Yuan’s chest.

The corners of Mo Yuan’s mouth twitched, and she resisted the urge to retreat.

Seeing her like this, Shen Yijia stopped.

Shen Yijia subconsciously asked, “You said that he…”

Mo Yuan couldn’t hold it in anymore. Her face instantly turned red. “I don’t know.”

Shen Yijia chuckled and stopped teasing her, but she remembered this question.

With this interruption, Shen Yijia forgot what she had wanted to say.

It was not until after breakfast that she remembered. She pulled Mo Yuan to the kitchen and went straight to Lord An Le’s residence.

When the two of them arrived, Shangguan Han was not in the residence. Butler Wan received them.

Butler Wan was about to invite Shen Yijia into the reception hall when Shen Yijia rolled her eyes and said, “I left a handkerchief in this residence yesterday. I don’t know if I dropped it in the storeroom or the study. Butler Wan, help me look for it.”

Butler Wan paused. She came early in the morning just to look for a handkerchief?

However, he did not dare to refuse. Just as he was about to call for help, Shen Yijia stopped him. “It’s just a handkerchief. It’s not appropriate to mobilize so many people. Butler Wan, go to the storeroom and look for it. I’ll go to the study room to take a look by myself.”

Butler Wan thought to himself, “Even you know that it’s just a handkerchief!”

However, since he trusted Song Jingchen, he naturally wouldn’t suspect Shen Yijia.

Moreover, he had seen so many women in the palace who would do anything to achieve their goals. He could tell at a glance that Shen Yijia was not a scheming person.

Therefore, he did not think too much about it. He brought Shen Yijia to the door of the study and went to Shangguan Han’s private treasury.

He had been keeping the keys to the private warehouse for Shangguan Han, so he didn’t have to worry about not being able to enter.

Seeing that she had left, Shen Yijia grinned and instructed Mo Yuan to guard the door. She entered Shangguan Yu’s study and did not forget to close the door.

She stayed inside for ten minutes before coming out. At this moment, Butler Wan returned.

Seeing that Shen Yijia’s hands were empty, he knew that the handkerchief was not there either. He apologized to Shen Yijia with an apologetic expression, “Young Madam, I didn’t see any handkerchiefs.”

“What does that handkerchief look like? I’ll get the servants in the residence to look for it later.”

Shen Yijia slapped her forehead and said apologetically, “Ah, I was about to tell you when I suddenly remembered that I didn’t bring any handkerchiefs yesterday.”

“I’m really sorry to trouble you to make this trip.”

Butler Wan thought to himself, “I suspect that you’re here early in the morning to make fun of me, but I don’t have any evidence.”

Shen Yijia did not care what Butler Wan thought. She came and left in a hurry.

Butler Wan was confused.

It was cold, and Shen Yijia was unwilling to wander around outside. Since her beautiful husband did not like her to go to the Liu residence, she decided not to go.

In any case, Liu Piaopiao would come to look for her to play.

When they passed a corner, they saw a few people squatting at the foot of the wall and chatting.

With the experience of these people bad mouthing Song Jingchen back then, Shen Yijia specially coughed and walked over.

“Have you heard? Young Master Shenzhi sent someone to send a gift to the Liu family early this morning.”

“How could I not have heard of it? As soon as the person who sent the gift left, the Liu residence exploded. I heard that it’s the ultimate calligraphy treasure from someone. It’s very precious.”

“Who in Xunyang City doesn’t know that Old Master Liu loves these things the most? Young Master Shenzhi has been here for so long, but I haven’t seen him get close to anyone. Why do you think he’s like this?”

Shen Yijia asked coldly, “Why?”

“What else could it be? Of course it’s as we said. Young Master Shenzhi likes Miss Liu’s kindness and wants to marry the Liu family’s daughter as a concubine.”

The person who replied had his back facing Shen Yijia.

Shen Yijia thought about the meaning of this word and her face darkened. She narrowed her eyes and asked, “But Young Master Shenzhi has a wife!”

“Hey, that tigress…” The man was halfway through his sentence when he realized that his companions were all pale and trying their best to signal at him with their eyes.

He felt a chill down his spine and turned around in fear. He met Shen Yijia’s smiling eyes and a small white fist.

Then, his vision blurred.

“Ah! Madam, please spare me!”

“We won’t do it again.”

There was a moment of silence.

Shen Yijia ignored their pleading and continued beating them up to vent her anger.

She placed her hands on her hips and looked down at the people lying on the ground. She said angrily, “All you know is hearsay and nonsense.”

“Why? I’m telling you why. It’s because my husband said that only he can support me. He gave the Liu family a gift to pay for the free food that the Liu family gave me.”

Although her beautiful husband did not phrase it like that, Shen Yijia felt that it made no difference.

Fortunately, she trusted her beautiful husband. Otherwise, she would have died of anger when she heard this.

“Yes, you’re right. We’re all talking nonsense.”

Shen Yijia glanced at them and snorted. “You love spreading rumors so much. Just you wait. You’ll get beaten up again one day.”

With that, she turned around and left without looking at those people.

After walking for a distance, she suddenly paused and asked, “Have you heard these rumors before?”

Mo Yuan lowered her head. “Miss, please punish me.”

Shen Yijia gritted her teeth and sighed. “Forget it, forget it. This won’t happen again.”

In any case, she trusted her beautiful husband unconditionally. Moreover, she had known Liu Piaopiao for a long time and knew that she had no such thoughts.

What was there to be angry about? If Liu Piaopiao had really approached her to snatch her beautiful husband, then she would be angry.

After calming herself and hitting someone, Shen Yijia returned to the residence in a good mood.

Little did they know that her battle had once again raised her fierce reputation in the hearts of the citizens of Xunyang City.

From then on, no one dared to spread rumors about Young Master Shenzhi and his wife, causing those who wanted to ask about them to be unable to do so.

“What’s wrong with the two of you? I already said that I’m the madam’s friend. Go in and ask.”

“My family’s young madam is not at home.”

“How is that possible, who are you trying to fool? Let me in.”
