Chapter 372 Visiting Li Ruoxue

Chapter 372 Visiting Li Ruoxue

The disparity between the people was huge, and Lin Yuesha became the target of hostility, which was something she didn't want.

This is like a group of people encountering a vicious wolf in the mountains. The rest of them are on the verge of death, but only one lucky person manages to escape. Instead of being envied, that lucky person is ostracized.

Humans have their flaws, especially these young ladies, who love to compare themselves to others and can't stand seeing others doing better than them.

"No, I also thought it was a test from Granny Fang. It's because I was bitten by a dog when I was a child. Whenever I see a dog, even if I lose my manners, I will hide, even if I am punished."

Lin Yuesha's face paled, and then she asked, "Where did this vicious dog come from in the girls' school? Who keeps it?"

"I don't know, they just came out of nowhere. I guess it was a bad idea of ​​someone who didn't want to learn the rules but was afraid of being kicked out of the girls' school and ruining their reputation."

Bai Youran made a bold assumption and glanced at Lin Yuesha out of the corner of her eye.

It wasn't that she was being paranoid, but Bai Youran suspected that everything was Lin Yuesha's scheme, because Lin Yuesha was familiar with the three women in the kitchen—the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law—so it would be plausible for her to slip something in.

"Sister Bai, this can't be true, right?"

Lin Yuesha inwardly gave Bai Youran a thumbs up. As expected of the daughter of the prefect, she was indeed more insightful than ordinary people. The other young ladies would not think in this direction. From a certain perspective, Bai Youran was right.

The next morning, everyone left the girls' school and went home.

"Sister Yue Sha, let's not beat around the bush, it really wasn't you?"

Bai Youran probed a few times, but seeing Lin Yuesha's impeccable composure, she couldn't help but ask directly, "I thought it was you..."

At the Bai residence, the Li sisters plotted against Lin Yuesha, and in the end, Li Ruoxue herself suffered the consequences. Bai Youran had been waiting for Lin Yuesha to retaliate for a long time, and her patience was almost exhausted. Lin Yuesha did not express any reaction, and her relationship with Li Ruoxue was even slightly better than before.

There was something fishy going on, but Bai Youran was completely unaware of it.

"Sister Bai, you've wronged me. I'm terrified of dogs, I would never bring these beasts."

Lin Yuesha's face was deathly pale. She took a sip of hot water and made no attempt to hide the fact that she was also frightened.

She was not frightened by the vicious dogs, but by the sudden appearance of blue eyes, which terrified her even more than seeing a white shadow in the middle of the night.

After observing for a while, Bai Youran saw that Lin Yuesha's fear seemed genuine and readily admitted her mistake, "That's because I misunderstood you."

It's no wonder Bai Youran was suspicious. When the vicious dog charged at them, Lin Yuesha immediately took off running. Bai Youran even took a moment to process what had happened before she realized Lin Yuesha was hiding.

Bai Youran felt a little uncomfortable because her reaction was not as good as Lin Yuesha's.

"These vicious dogs came suspiciously. Li Ruoxue was injured and bitten so badly by them that her flesh was mangled..."

Lin Yuesha clicked her tongue twice. Out of friendship, Granny Fang asked all the young ladies to go and see. The others were very enthusiastic, some genuinely so, and some just wanting to watch the excitement.

"Then let's go with the Zhao sisters."

Bai Youran put down her package and sighed softly. If she left the girls' school, she wouldn't get her bowl of herbal soup tomorrow. She also wanted to make her figure more curvaceous.

"good."

Lin Yuesha agreed, and the two of them had just stepped out when they ran into the Zhao sisters, Zhao Fendie and Zhao Jingya.

Zhao Jingya's face was pale, and she nodded weakly, while Zhao Fundie seemed to have recovered as usual. She pulled Bai Youran and said with a smile, "My father's colleague used to keep a vicious dog. It seems that he bought it from the barbarians at a high price. The vicious dog would go crazy when it smelled blood, and it usually seemed to be very clingy."

The key point is the smell of blood. None of the ladies are menstruating, so where is the blood coming from? And strangely enough, there's also a fragrance, seemingly deliberately masking the smell of blood.

Why are you bringing this up?

Bai Youran was stunned. She hadn't noticed this small detail. Could it be that Lin Yuesha was the one who plotted against Li Ruoxue? No, Lin Yuesha was the first to run away and hide in the room. She was the least suspicious person.

"Because Sister Bai and Sister Lin ran fast and are not in sight."

Zhao Fundie spoke lightly and then fell silent.

Lin Yuesha and Bai Youran exchanged a glance. She learned the truth: Li Ruoxue had been schemed against by her younger sister, Li Ruoshuang, and the falling out between the two was also part of Lin Yuesha's plan.

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind—this was the lesson the pockmarked-face man wanted to teach Lin Yuesha, which she herself grasped.

Sometimes she really doesn't want to scheme against others, but if you don't take action, you'll be the one being schemed against; she has no other choice.

It was already dark, and a light drizzle began to fall.

The four of them went directly to the Li sisters' house through the corridor. Li Ruoxue was cursing and complaining that Li Ruoshuang had neglected her, her older sister.

"Sister Ruoxue, that's not how it works. It was a vicious dog that bit you, so why are you blaming Li Ruoshuang?"

Zhao Fundie and Li Ruoxue have been at odds for a long time. With the Bai and Li families about to get engaged, and now that Li Ruoxue is disfigured, it's uncertain whether the marriage can still go through.

Although the bite marks weren't on her face, they were still enough to make Li Ruoxue suffer. The bloody wounds on her arms would leave marks no matter how good the scar removal cream was.

"This is a matter between us sisters, what are you doing here?"

Li Ruoxue was proud and wanted to say a few more words, but she didn't want to be laughed at by outsiders. When she saw Zhao Fendie arrive, she angrily said, "Get out of here!"

“Li Ruoxue, don’t take advantage of my kindness. I’m only here because it was Fang Mama’s idea, out of consideration for our friendship as classmates at the girls’ school.”

Zhao Fundie sat in the chair. Li Ruoxue told her to get out, but she refused. She wouldn't let go of a good opportunity to watch the show.

"Sister, it's my fault, I shouldn't have..."

Li Ruoshuang felt relieved, but on the surface she still had to apologize, looking aggrieved.

The wound was on her hand, and there was a lot of bleeding. The wound clotted quickly, and given Li Ruoxue's stupidity, she probably wouldn't notice it.

The rest of the people...

Li Ruoshuang was unsure, but after careful consideration, she realized that Granny Fang should investigate the source of the vicious dog instead of focusing on the fact that Li Ruoxue had been bitten.

"I knew you were unreliable. You wait, I'll go back and tell my mother to send you to the countryside!"

The pain from her wound was unbearable, so Li Ruoxue cursed and started attacking Li Ruoshuang.

She could tolerate others, but her feud with Zhao Fundie had been going on for a long time, and they both hoped the other would suffer a terrible fate. However, Li Ruoshuang was her own sister, and when she saw her being torn apart by vicious dogs, she didn't offer any help.

"Sister, calm down. It was my fault. I was too scared at the time. When we get home, I will apologize to Mother."

Li Ruoshuang explained patiently, adding, "The carriage from your residence will come to pick us up early tomorrow morning. I'll pack my things first."

Do you need my help?

Zhao Fendie didn't want to, but the more she could make Li Ruoxue's face turn ashen, the happier she became, to the point that she even found Li Ruoshuang much more pleasing to the eye.

"No, no need."

Li Ruoshuang opened the package and was about to fold her clothes and go inside when her expression suddenly changed drastically, and she tripped and fell to the ground.
