Chapter 785: Bold Talks
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xie Jingrong held a special place in Yuezheng Tings heart. He served as her standard when it came to seeking a potential suitor.
When Yuezheng Ting faced obstacles that prevented her from reaching her goals, she often needed to direct her frustration towards someone else, as a means to convince herself that her own abilities were not at fault.
Regrettably, Qiao Xuan was the unfortunate target of this misplaced anger.
“Thank you, Lady Yuezheng. I could never refuse your gracious invitation.
However, it would have been nice if you had informed me about my sisters.
That would have brought me even more joy!’
Qiao Wei snorted dismissively, casting a cold gaze in her direction.
This woman truly excelled at boastful remarks. Not a hint of embarra.s.sment crossed her face!
No wonder Mother had admitted to misjudging her character. Qiao Xuan now understood why.
Qiao Kou exchanged a glance with Qiao Xuan, chuckling softly. “It’s never too late to learn about it now, sister.’
Qiao Xuan responded, her tone laced with humor, “Indeed. I’ll simply consider it a grand surprise party in my honor.”
The three girls. ‘
A grand surprise party? Qiao Xuan really knew how to make herself special, didn’t she?
“We’d like to visit Lingyuan Temple and see the flowers. M/hy don’t we go together?” Yuezheng Ting suggested, her tone betraying annoyance.
Qiao Xuan didn’t refuse the proposal; instead, she smiled and agreed. They boarded the wagon and set off towards Lingyuan Temple.
The temple wasn’t too far from the mansion, and they reached it within half an hour. Nestled amidst the mountains, the temple was surrounded by towering ancient trees. As they ascended the steps, the tranquility of the surroundings dispelled the remnants of summer’s heat. Normally, climbing the mountain with close friends and family would be a delightful experience, creating a sense of contentment.
However, with Yuezheng Ting, Qiao Kou, and Qiao Wei by her side, Qiao Xuan had to remain cautious and curious.
Qiao Xuan had no idea of their true intentions for bringing her here, but she was certain that they had ulterior motives.
With her superpower by her side, Qiao Xuan felt no worry at all.
Lady Yuezheng held considerable influence, and it seemed she had made prior arrangements, as the monks warmly received them and provided a serene courtyard for their rest.
Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei rarely ventured out, as there were limited places for amus.e.m.e.nt in the county. Thus, they displayed great interest in the temple, which was renowned as one of the province’s three great temples. As Yuezheng Ting had visited numerous times, she took great pride in showing them around and sharing information about its history.
The landscape in the back mountain was breathtakingly beautiful. On this delightful autumn day, flowers adorned every corner. Yuezheng Ting guided them through the scenic areas, and they engaged in pleasant conversations as they strolled.
The mountainous terrain was rugged, twisting, and uneven—far from flat.
Yuezheng Ting and Qiao Wei exchanged a knowing glance before s.h.i.+fting their gaze to their maids.
Li’ er and Fendie approached Qiao Xuan with deliberate slowness, before suddenly giving her a push and a shove. With a startled scream, Qiao Xuan tumbled down the hill, rolling all the way until she landed amidst the shrubbery, her cries echoing in the air.
Observing Qiao Xuan lying motionless in the gra.s.s, the group a.s.sumed she had lost consciousness.
Yuezheng Ting chuckled and sneered, “l thought she was quite nimble. Turns out, she’s just a fragile little thing.”
Qiao Kou joined in the laughter, remarking, “She brought this upon herself by being so confident and coming alone.”
“That was a foolish decision on her part,” added another girl.
The trio erupted in laughter, relis.h.i.+ng in the situation. Qiao Wei, wearing a satisfied expression, flattered Yuezheng Ting with a smile. ‘You are truly clever, Sister Yuezheng. With her reputation ruined, she will never be able to recover.”
They eagerly antic.i.p.ated whether Qiao Xuan’s Provincial Champion husband would still want her after such a downfall..
