"Mother, please don't be angry. Father is just angry. No matter what he says, it's all my fault. I offended my sister, which is why I've dragged you into this!"
"I'll go and kowtow to my sister and apologize right now!"
Xie Hanyue hugged Wang Shi, sobbing, her voice choked with emotion.
Xie Zhaoye was already a hot-tempered and somewhat dim-witted person, and after hearing these words, he subconsciously felt that all the current troubles were because of Xie Qingran.
He spat and then strode toward the Rose Garden.
As soon as he entered, Xie Zhaoye kicked over the low table in front of Xie Qingran, glaring at her through gritted teeth: "Now the entire Xie family is in chaos because of you. Are you happy? Are you satisfied? Xie Qingran, how come I never saw this kind of person before!"
"What am I?" Xie Qingran stood up and looked at Xie Zhaoye with displeasure.
Xie Zhaoye was momentarily speechless at the question, then said viciously, "How come I never thought you were such a troublemaker!"
"If I'm the troublemaker, then what are you?"
"Brother, even if you look down on yourself, you can't drag our parents down with you, can you?"
Xie Qingran crossed her arms and looked at Xie Zhaoye with a half-smile.
Xie Zhaoye had clearly spoken without thinking before, but now, after hearing this, he was completely dumbfounded. He quickly realized what Xie Qingran had said and gritted his teeth in anger: "How dare you be so vicious as to call us filthy things?"
"Wasn't it you who said that?"
"Do you all have this quirk? Whenever something bad happens, you blame it on me. It's just so inexplicable."
Xie Qingran gave a cold shout, looking at Xie Zhaoye with disdain.
Xie Zhaoye suddenly realized that Xie Qingran seemed to be different from before. Before, Xie Qingran was just cold and unapproachable, but now she not only had a sharp tongue, but she had also become much bolder. She was simply despicable!
But for some reason, Xie Zhaoye even felt that Xie Qingran was more real, more like a living person.
Xie Qingran waved her hand and said coldly, "Because of your nonsense, Mother has lost her power as the head of the household. If this continues, I don't know what will happen. You'd better watch yourselves."
"Baozhu, see the guest out." Xie Qingran waved her hand impatiently, shooing the person away like a fly.
It wasn't until after he left Rose Garden that Xie Zhaoye belatedly realized that he had been kicked out.
He was taken aback for a moment, then frowned: "How could I have listened to her nonsense and come out like this?"
"Young Miss, I'm a little worried about you. With the inner quarters in such chaos, what will you do in the future?"
"The Madam, the Second Miss, and the Eldest Young Master will not let you off the hook."
Baozhu looked at Xie Qingran with a worried expression.
Xie Qingran didn't take these things to heart, and simply said, "If I treat them with respect, will they treat me well?"
Baozhu thought about it carefully, then shook her head: "No."
"Yes, since no matter what I do, they're not good to me, why should I try to please them and make myself suffer? I might as well just enjoy myself!"
"Look, now we eat well, use the best things, everything is the best, isn't it?"
Xie Qingran smiled slightly, kicked aside the disheveled figure on the ground, and strode outside.
The messy and chaotic backyard gave Xie Qingran a little time to breathe freely. She took Baozhu and went out to the street, wanting to have a good look around.
In her previous life, Xie Qingran was always confined to the inner quarters, so she rarely saw the vastness of the outside world. Now that she is outside, she realizes what openness truly means.
The streets of the capital are always bustling with activity, offering everything imaginable, from food to entertainment. Even though Xie Qingran was reborn, she was still overjoyed to see all these things.
Soon, Xie Qingran took Baozhu to a rouge shop not far away. As soon as they entered, they smelled a faint peach blossom fragrance. She walked up to them with a smile and asked, "Where is this peach blossom fragrance coming from?"
"Does Miss Xie really like the scent of peach blossoms?"
Upon hearing Xie Qingran's voice, Shen Wenyuan immediately came out, his eyes crinkling with a smile as he looked at her.
Every time Xie Qingran saw this person, she felt somewhat dissatisfied, but she would never show it, and would just smile faintly: "So it's Young Master Shen."
Why do you always look so gloomy when you see me?
"This is our newly developed floral dew. It doesn't just have a peach blossom scent; there are more than ten other scents as well. You can try them and see which one you like."
Shen Wenyuan shook the folding fan in his hand and looked at Xie Qingran with a smile.
He was a spendthrift who was completely devoted to his family. If no one had instigated him, he would probably have been a decent person. In his previous life, although he did some things, they could not be considered heinous crimes, and he could have been given a way out.
Xie Qingran looked at the floral dews, smelled their scents, and said with a smile, "The peach blossom scent is the best, so I'll take this one."
Baozhu immediately stepped forward to pay, but Shen Wenyuan did not accept the money. He just smiled and looked at Xie Qingran: "Since Miss likes it, it is my honor. There is no need for money. I would like to make friends with Miss. Is that alright?"
"Men and women should not touch each other, so please, Young Master Shen, be mindful of this."
"I'm really not good enough to be friends with them."
Xie Qingran took the peach blossom dew, turned around and strode outside, leaving Shen Wenyuan with only her back view.
This was the first time Shen Wenyuan had been rejected by someone multiple times. Looking at Xie Qingran's retreating figure, he felt a wave of frustration and muttered, "Do I look that repulsive? Why can't they be a little kinder to me?"
Qin Feng, his friend beside him, smiled and then said, "I thought you were joking when you said this girl was unusual, but now it seems she really is. She's as aloof as a flower on a high mountain, and I'm afraid she won't fall for your act!"
"I have never seen such a cool and aloof young lady from a prestigious family before, so I can't help but want to get closer to her."
"Do you think she really hates me?"
Shen Wenyuan looked at Qin Feng with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
Qin Feng glanced at him: "You want to be friends with her? That's really presumptuous. She's almost twenty years old, a woman who's about to get married. How can she be friends with a man like you? It's all because you have no sense of propriety. I've told you to read more books, but you just wouldn't listen! Now you're suffering the consequences, aren't you?"
