Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Su Yingxue wanted to appear attentive and caring. She smiled and said, “I have never been to the palace before, and receiving envoys is a significant task. I appreciate Aunt’s guidance.”
Jing Fang, being a prudent woman, replied, “Miss, you are a capable person, and such matters will naturally be handled without errors.”
After praising Su Yingxue, Jing Fang continued to commend another person, “Miss, with your outstanding abilities, even your younger sister is meticulous. She arrived early this morning, claiming that you had long been considerate, so she came ahead of time to arrange everything for you. She has visited all the areas where the envoys stay in the palace and has been patiently waiting here to report to you.”
“My sister?” Su Yingxue couldn’t help but frown.
Looking up, she saw Su Yurou approaching. Su Yurou was not as meticulously dressed as usual, wearing a simple white dress and minimal jewelry. She greeted Su Yingxue politely, “Sister, I already explored the palace and even drew a map for you to familiarize yourself.”
She presented the map immediately. A hint of displeasure flashed in Su Yingxue’s eyes. “In the future, there’s no need for such extra efforts. Aunt Jing Fang will guide me through the palace. You don’t need to be overly involved.” After being reprimanded, Su Yurou naturally wore an aggrieved expression.
Jing Fang, who saw her first, couldn’t help but console her, “Miss Yurou is well-intentioned. However, Miss Su is clever. With or without this map, you will quickly become familiar with the palace.”
Su Yurou covered her lips with a handkerchief and sobbed, “Yes, sister is right. It’s my fault. I will unquestionably follow all of sister’s instructions in the future.”
Su Yingxue breathed a sigh of relief. Su Yurou really made things difficult for her!
She had delayed it until now, intending to be diligent yet seemingly nonchalant.
She was impressive!
She arrived early, completed all the tasks, and even drew a map!
Surely, Jing Fang had other intentions engraved in her heart. Soon, both the emperor and empress would be aware.
She had to be even more careful when it came to receiving envoys.
After bidding farewell to Jing Fang, Su Yingxue took Su Yurou back to the residence.
Su Yurou came in her own car, naturally not sharing the same vehicle as Su Yingxue.
However, when Su Yingxue saw how Su Yurou got into the car decisively and remained silent after being treated coldly, she felt puzzled.
In the car, she asked Zhilan, “What’s going on with Su Yurou recently?”
Zhilan shook her head. “Nothing unusual. Two days ago, she was still crying for Aunt Liu. Previously, she was sent back by the Seventh Prince and even caused a scene at the Seventh Prince’s residence. However, she didn’t enter the mansion, so I didn’t inquire. Today… I was negligent.”
She looked apologetic.
However, Su Yingxue’s gaze turned cold. “No, it was my carelessness.”
She hadn’t paid attention to Su Yurou these past few days. Firstly, she wanted her to face rejection a few more times, to break her spirit, to make her understand that she was a motherless good-for-nothing. No one would sympathize with her, returning the same humiliation from her previous life.
She had achieved her goal, and Su Yurou indeed caused quite a scene.
However, she suddenly had such thoughts and disrupted her plan as soon as she arrived. This was truly puzzling.
Who was advising her?
Moreover, she had detected a scent of blood on Su Yurou just now.
She was dressed plainly today, wanting to show off her generous and decent appearance, so she did not use much perfume on her body. When she approached slightly, she smelled something unusual.
Who had Su Yurou met recently?
