Chapter 188
The maid left those words and went about her business.
Le'an stomped her foot in anger: "Young Madam, this is too much! Her things can't get wet in the rain, but yours can!"
In Yun Wan's heart, was Yun Xi, a living, breathing person, really less important than a bunch of inanimate objects?!
Yunxi lowered her eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
"Auntie, let's go back and ask the young master to back you up!" Le'an said, pulling Yunxi along as they prepared to go back.
She had barely used a little force when Yunxi grabbed her.
Yunxi looked up and met her eyes, but a veil of rain separated them, and Le'an couldn't see the expression in Yunxi's eyes. "Since we're already here, if we just leave like this, I'm afraid the young mistress will be even less likely to let me off the hook in the future."
“Auntie!” Le’an gritted her teeth.
No matter how much they try to stop them, can it compare to this? Making them stand in the rain and wait?!
Besides, with Shen Rang backing her up, what would Yun Wan dare to do?!
Le'an wanted to persuade her again, but Yunxi had already broken free of her hand, turned around and stood properly facing the main door of the house.
Seeing her like this, Le'an stomped her foot in anger, but could only stand with her.
Inside the house, Yun Wan had not yet gotten up.
Such gloomy and stormy weather was perfect for staying in bed. She had already looked through the household accounts, and since she didn't have much to do today, getting up a little later wouldn't hurt.
Pearl sat on the edge of the bed and whispered about the situation outside: "Auntie is already standing in the rain. Young Madam, when are you going to call her in?"
Yun Wan didn't even open her eyes: "I haven't even gotten up yet, what kind of manners would it be to call her in? Let her wait outside!"
Even the heavens felt sorry for her, and a torrential rain fell, giving her the opportunity to teach Yunxi a lesson. Since that was the case, how could she let it go so easily?
Pearl knew that Yun Wan had been angry ever since the banquet, even though she didn't say it. She thought that this was a rare opportunity, so it wouldn't hurt to let Yun Wan vent her anger.
In late autumn, the sky already gets light late, and with this heavy rain, it's even harder for the sun to rise.
Le'an counted the hours in her mind, thinking that the two of them had been standing in the rain for more than half an hour, enough time to answer Zheng Shi's questions, so she prepared to persuade Yunxi to go back.
Before she could speak, Yunxi swayed slightly and then collapsed to the ground.
Le An's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly stepped forward to help Yun Xi up.
Yunxi's face was completely devoid of color, her eyes were tightly closed, and her dark eyelashes made her face appear even paler than paper.
Her face was pale, but the temperature of her touch was surprisingly hot.
Oh no.
Without a second thought, Le'an scooped Yunxi up in her arms and, her gaze falling on the maid standing in the corridor, shouted angrily, "The concubine has been standing in the courtyard for more than half an hour. It's one thing for the young mistress not to appear, but she won't even give us a place to take shelter from the rain. I will report this matter to the young master as it is!"
Having said that, Le'an dared not delay any longer and strode away with Yunxi in his arms.
Inside the house, Yun Wan was still fast asleep, unaware of what had happened outside. Pearl, hearing the commotion in the yard, felt a sudden jolt in her heart.
Pearl quickly turned back and woke Yun Wan: "Something's wrong! Young Madam, that person has fainted!"
Yun Wan was stunned for a moment, then sat bolt upright in bed: "She fainted? How long was she standing?"
If it's a short time, then it's definitely faked!
Pearl bit her lip: "More than half an hour."
Yun Wan knew something was wrong and quickly threw off the covers and got up: "Why didn't you wake me up!"
Pearl dared not speak and hurriedly went forward to help her wash and dress.
