Chapter 2111: Chapter 2111: Truly Disappointed
Such a great opportunity taken away by her father, how could she ever be content?
“Father, let go of your daughter, allow me to go back and serve Master Qian. I will definitely serve Master Qian properly and live peacefully with High Priest Demon Heart!”
In the courtyard, everyone could hear her shameless words.
“Pfft!”
An Jiuyue, caught off guard, spat out a mouthful of tea.
This Third young lady Miss Xue, truly a talent, An Jiuyue couldn’t help but admire, never had she seen such a foolish woman.
“Master, is she playing dumb or is she really dumb?”
Wei Na twitched the corner of his mouth, somewhat dumbfounded as he watched the scene outside the space.
Everything that had happened inside the house had caught his attention. Such obvious words, any person would hear as sarcasm, but this Thirs young lady Miss Xue actually thought it was a compliment?
“She’s neither genuinely dumb nor pretending.”
An Jiuyue took a handkerchief, wiped the tea from the corners of her mouth, and spoke softly.
This Thirs young lady Miss Xue truly believed that Qian Jiyun was praising her, because in her view, with her beauty, every man should fall at her feet.
She certainly didn’t think Qian Jiyun was mocking her.
Sect Master Xue dragged Xue Manyu to the courtyard, heard her brazen words, stumbled a bit, nearly fell.
Once he stood up straight, his head lifted just in time to see the High Priest Demon Heart sitting on a chair and looking his way, with a smile lingering on his lips, which caused him to break out in a cold sweat.
What sin had he committed, to have such a daughter, truly a curse upon him.
And to think, he had doted on this daughter for so many years!
At that moment, he didn’t dare to go greet the High Priest Demon Heart, but instead firmly pulled Xue Manyu, hastening to leave with her.
“Why are you sitting here?”
Not long after, Qian Jiyun came over and saw An Jiuyue drinking tea, he pulled out a blanket and placed it over her knees.
“Using a Cooling Charm, be careful of catching cold,” he cautioned.
“No worries, it’s not cold.”
An Jiuyue smiled, wanting to pour him a cup of tea.
But remembering she had just spluttered, unsure whether the tea or snacks on the table were affected, she refrained from doing so.
“Just wanted to watch the excitement. Yuu Rong, Yi Kun went out, you go find them.”
“Alright, sister-in-law.” Yuu Rong complied and also departed.
…
After an hour, outside the Ancestral Shrine.
Wails and howls terrify the disciples hastily passing by, each wrinkle their brows and speed up their steps.
The cries came from Wang Hua’er, because she had aided Xue Manyu in leaving the Ancestral Shrine, she was punished with one hundred strokes of the iron staff, a sentence that even male disciples found hard to endure, let alone Wang Hua’er, who was but a maid.
Xue Manyu knelt on the side, under the watch of other disciples, forced to watch Wang Hua’er get punished.
Sect Master Xue initially hoped that seeing her maid being whipped would evoke a sense of remorse in Xue Manyu, at least some degree of compassion or emotion on her face.
But unexpectedly, she just stared at Wang Hua’er resentfully, as if blaming someone, never once thinking that Wang Hua’er was being punished because of her.
He was truly disappointed with this daughter.
Originally, he wanted to send two maids to take care of Xue Manyu at Reflection Cliff, but now it seems that’s unnecessary.
Without suffering a bit, she doesn’t realize the vastness of the world; let her struggle alone at Reflection Cliff. Whether she can leave Reflection Cliff in the future will depend on her fate.
