Chapter 60
Yun Wan sat at the head of the table, watching Yun Xi, dressed as a maid, walk in. She snorted and said, "I heard that Second Sister and Jing Yuan have a good relationship?"
Yunxi was puzzled.
She and Jingyuan have a good relationship?
No, right?
However, it is true that she has a good relationship with Shen Rang.
Seeing that Yunxi remained silent, Yunwan slammed her hand on the table: "Are you still asleep?! Why don't you answer me!"
Yunxi shrugged and said, "Young Madam, you must have misunderstood. My relationship with Jingyuan... is just ordinary at most."
"Don't be modest. Doesn't Jingyuan buy you food every day?" Yun Wan sneered. "It's time for you to reciprocate his kindness. Second sister is so beautiful and skilled at seduction. I bet if you just get close to Jingyuan and give him a flirty look, you can make him dizzy with desire, right?"
This is practically accusing Yunxi of being a vixen.
He was clearly still upset about Yunxi seducing Shen Rang in bed.
"Anyway, I don't care what method you use. Recently, something happened between me and the Crown Prince. Go and coax Jing Yuan to say a few good words for me in front of the Crown Prince," Yun Wan said as if she were instructing a servant. "I'm giving you a whole day. I want to see the Crown Prince back tonight, or you'll be in for a beating!"
Before Yunxi could speak, Yunwan ordered Pearl to chase them away without further ado.
Yunxi was pushed out by Pearl.
She returned to the back room and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
Yun Wan's words were so generous, giving her a whole day, as if Shen Rang was at home during the day!
Seeing her looking so worried, Jixiang didn't dare to ask any more questions. She simply brought over breakfast and waited quietly to the side.
Although Yunxi was able to go out, that road was her trump card, and she didn't want to use it on this matter. So, as usual, Yunxi didn't do anything all day, only taking Jixiang to the Buweizhai in the front courtyard as dusk approached.
However, halfway there, Yunxi suddenly stopped.
Yun Wan is eager to see Shen Rang tonight, which shows how anxious she is. Today, she was sitting in her room, and the shadows of people moving around could be seen on the window from time to time, which is enough to prove this point.
Since that's the case...
"Jixiang, I don't know anyone from Liuyun Garden. Turn around and see if the young mistress has sent anyone to follow us?"
Jixiang cautiously turned her head to look: "...There really is one."
Yunxi smiled and said, "Then let's go to the Water Pavilion."
"Miss, isn't this a bad idea?" Jixiang exclaimed in alarm. "If the young mistress finds out about your relationship with the young master, she'll skin us alive!"
“Nothing ventured, nothing gained,” Yunxi said. “You know the young master protects me. If this step is right, I might become a concubine in this mansion tomorrow. Then I can get your indenture back.”
Jixiang gritted her teeth.
Although she still felt it was somewhat risky, the saying "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" completely convinced her.
Yunxi's eyes darted around: "I'll go up myself in a bit. You stay outside and lead her to inquire about Shuiyang Tower. Since we're not together, even if things don't work out, you can use this opportunity to clear yourself of any wrongdoing."
"The young master will be back soon, don't worry, I won't do anything."
Ji Xiang listened with deep emotion.
Yunxi's thoughtful consideration completely absolved her of responsibility!
This is a truly wise and worthy ruler to follow!
“Yes, Miss,” Jixiang said solemnly, “Don’t worry, I will definitely handle things well!”
