Chapter 325 Paying Homage to the Second Miss
Jiang Yuwei opened his mouth, then looked at Yu Zhiyi and Prefect Song.
At that moment, the two were walking side by side, and Prefect Song only had eyes for Yu Zhiyi, even forgetting that his wife was still there.
In this situation, who wouldn't suspect that the two of them have some kind of affair?
However, he couldn't find the right words to break the awkward silence and speak up for Chen Xinyue.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Jingxuan with pleading eyes.
Lin Jingxuan: "..."
She's never dealt with such a dramatic situation before, has she?
By then, Chen Xinyue had recovered, but seeing that Jiang Yuwei and the other man were still not seeking justice for her, she was almost driven mad with anger.
Fine, fine, you don't even respect her, huh?
None of them will have an easy time!
She managed to stand up with great difficulty, and looked at Madam Song through teary eyes: "Madam Song, I may have said something wrong, which is why my second aunt dislikes me so much. My sister and Prefect Song definitely have no improper relationship. Please don't be angry."
Their relationship is out in the open. If they go along with her and don't acknowledge it, then that little bitch has been played for free for a while.
However, if the two of them do not take the opportunity to deny it, then Xiao Qingxuan will have to apologize to her in public!
Xiao Qingxuan became even angrier upon hearing this.
That brat is still trying to smear her daughter!
She wanted to do it herself, but Yu Zhiyi stopped her: "Mother, let me do it."
This person has gone so far as to provoke her directly, right in front of her mother, that Yu Zhiyi naturally couldn't remain indifferent.
Chen Xinyue watched Yu Zhiyi warily, her body tense, ready to dodge an attack at any moment.
She can't escape Xiao Qingxuan, so surely she can't escape this little bitch?
Snap!
A slap landed heavily on his face.
Chen Xinyue stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
She was clearly on high alert, so why did she still fall for it?
Before she could figure it out, another slap landed on her.
Yu Zhiyi used considerable force, slapping each side, and combined with Xiao Qingxuan's previous handiwork, it was enough to leave the other person with a swollen face for a year to recover.
"You... dare to hit me!"
Chen Xinyue was furious.
She was angry that she couldn't avoid it.
She was even more furious that Yu Zhiyi dared to lay a hand on her in public.
She could still treat being hit by Xiao Qingxuan as an elder disciplining a junior, so she didn't dare to dodge. But after being hit by this little bitch, she couldn't find any reason to save face.
Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "You dared to spread rumors in front of me, so you should be prepared to be publicly refuted by me. What's there to be angry about?"
The string of reason in Chen Xinyue's heart snapped completely.
She couldn't remember any of the conspiracies or schemes; at this moment, all she wanted was for the little bitch in front of her to pay the price.
"Am I wrong? Prefect Song disregarded societal norms to attend your welcoming banquet and even presented you with such an expensive gift. The Prefect's wife personally came to confront the mistress. What excuse do you have left?"
Yu Zhiyi was so angry she laughed.
"Prefect Song personally hosted a welcome dinner for me and gave me gifts, so it means we're having an affair?" She looked Chen Xinyue up and down, her eyes light and indifferent: "Is this all the filth in your little fingernail-sized brain?"
Chen Xinyue: "!"
She was so angry she couldn't speak, her fierce eyes filled with bewilderment.
How can this woman be so shameless?
The facts are already laid bare, yet you still dare to deny them?
Did she not want to enter the prefect's mansion for the sake of her reputation?
Upon hearing this, Prefect Song finally understood that these people had misunderstood Lord Yu because of his attitude, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
He was too busy trying to curry favor with Lord Yu, how could he dare to let the other party be humiliated because of him?
He immediately stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Little girl, don't think so dirty. I only have respect and admiration for Miss Jiang, and absolutely no improper thoughts."
Chen Xinyue: "?"
Respect?
worship?
Would a dignified prefect respect and admire a wild girl?
She doesn't believe it!
Absolutely impossible!
Before she could voice her thoughts, Madam Song stepped forward and bowed slightly to Yu Zhiyi: "This humble servant is Madam Song Ding, paying respects to Miss Jiang."
Knowing that Yu Zhiyi was unwilling to reveal her identity, Madam Song simply used this method to prove her nobility and extraordinary status.
Everyone at the door was stunned.
How could the wife of a high-ranking official in the imperial court greet an unknown maid?
You must know, the Prefect's wife said "pay her respects"!
I pay my respects!
The word "paying respects" is only used when the other party is of a much higher status than them.
Chen Xinyue swayed: "How...how is this possible?"
Jiang Yuwei and his wife exchanged a glance, and disbelief was seen in each other's eyes.
Even Xiao Qingxuan was surprised at this moment.
She knew her daughter was promising, but she never expected her to be this successful.
Even the Song Prefect and his wife, who were the local officials of Tian'an County, treated her with utmost respect.
Yu Zhiyi was not surprised by this situation.
Although she did not hold a high official position when she was in the capital, she was still a fifth-rank official, and even the lower-ranking officials and clerks had to bow to her.
The only difference is that now the person bowing to her is the head of a prefecture, a fourth-rank official.
However, it's not a big problem.
"Rise," she said calmly.
His expression suggested he was used to this kind of situation.
Jiang Yuwei was even more shocked and looked at Lin Jingxuan with his eyes, asking what was going on.
Lin Jingxuan: "..."
She doesn't know what happened either.
If she had known, she wouldn't have dragged Yu Zhiyi to apologize to that person today.
Chen Xinyue was naturally the one who couldn't accept this fact the most.
She looked as if she had seen a ghost: "Why would the wife of a prefect bow to a mere young woman?"
Driven to madness, she completely lost her reason: "Could it be that you, Madam Prefect, have been bribed by her?"
Madam Song, already known for her stern nature, was now even more ruthless: "Insolence! Who are you to dare slander Miss Jiang the Second?"
She looked at Jiang Yuwei expressionlessly: "Leader Jiang, the martial arts alliance's manners are worrying."
Jiang Yuwei was startled.
Although it was only Madam Song who said this, the fact that Prefect Song did not express his opinion indicates that Prefect Song also agreed with it.
Most importantly!
His niece's status was clearly extraordinary, possibly even higher than that of Prefect Song and his wife. Chen Xinyue actually dared to spread rumors about someone even more powerful than a fourth-rank official. Not only was she courting death, but she was also digging a pit for the Martial Alliance!
"Chen Xinyue, shut up!"
Fearing that Chen Xinyue might say something she shouldn't in her madness, Jiang Yuwei directly silenced her by pressing her acupoint.
Chen Xinyue: "!!"
Ignoring her disbelief and anger, Jiang Yuwei quickly apologized to Prefect Song and his wife.
Prefect Song gave a half-smile: "Alliance Leader Jiang, the people you should apologize to are not us."
