Although Feng Mo didn't react unusually to what she said earlier, it must have made him suspicious and question Rong Yiyi.
It would take Rong Yiyi half a day just to explain to Feng Mo, let alone dispel Feng Mo's suspicions about her.
Just as she was secretly pleased, a shadow fell over her head.
She was startled, and goosebumps rose on her skin.
She slowly turned around and saw Xie Jingrun, who had somehow appeared behind her.
"My lord," she greeted curtly.
Xie Jingrun narrowed his long, narrow eyes slightly as he sized her up. "It seems I underestimated you!"
"Your Excellency is too kind. I am just a woman..." Rong Qingqing forced a smile, but her heart sank. Sure enough, Xie Jingrun had been outside the door for a while and had seen her every move.
Thinking of this, Rong Qingqing blushed and felt a little embarrassed. While she was putting on a great performance, she was unaware that others had already seen through her.
"Not bad acting!" Xie Jingrun curled his lips, said this, and then strode away.
Rong Qingqing touched her chest.
This wolf cub is terrifying!
Just standing next to him made her feel like the air was thin.
horrible!
She slowly exhaled and was about to return to her Qinfang Garden when, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xie Jingyi, who had been treating her as invisible ever since Xie Jingrun appeared.
"Yi'er?" she called out affectionately.
Xie Jingyi was about to leave when she heard her voice calling her, and she stumbled and almost fell.
After regaining her composure, she turned around and glared at her fiercely, "Who gave you permission to call me that?"
“I am your mother. If I don’t call you that, should I call you by your full name? That would be too formal,” Rong Qingqing said dismissively.
"How can you be so shameless?" Xie Jingyi was furious.
“I followed the rules, how is that shameless? But you…” Rong Qingqing paused, “Rong Yiyi is the savior you brought in, isn’t she?”
"How did you know?" Xie Jingyi blurted out.
Rong Qingqing smiled faintly, "You want to use her to deal with me?"
"Stop patting yourself on the back!" Xie Jingyi said somewhat guiltily, but she preemptively retorted, "With you, why would you need Yiyi to step in?"
"That's good." Rong Qingqing nodded, then sighed and said, "But speaking of which, Yiyi is really a smart girl. Because I am the legitimate daughter and deeply loved by my grandmother, she has always disliked me since I was little. But no matter how much she dislikes me, she will never break ties with me, because there are always many self-righteous people who will stand up for her." After saying that, she gave her a meaningful look, "For example, you, Yi'er."
Xie Jingyi was taken aback.
Rong Qingqing stopped there, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
After thinking for a long time, Xie Jingyi finally understood the meaning behind Rong Qingqing's words.
She actually said that Yiyi had been taking advantage of her.
And she was the one who thought she was right and stood up for Yiyi.
Thinking of this, she felt uneasy, but she comforted herself, thinking that Yiyi would never take advantage of her.
The two were best friends who could talk about anything. It was only right for them to stand up for each other when they saw their best friend being bullied, and it wasn't like what Rong Qingqing said.
She really underestimated this woman; what a sinister intention she had, actually trying to sow discord between her and Yiyi.
That's absolutely outrageous!
