Duan Shishi suddenly felt extremely embarrassed and was about to scold Qiao Yun when Duan Qingxi said, "Yes, sister, why did you choose to come at this time instead of earlier or later? I'm really tired and I'm afraid I need to go to bed. Why don't you go back first and come see me when you have time?"
Duan Shishi's expression was almost tense, and she just stared at Duan Qingxi.
If looks could kill, Duan Qingxi would have died a million times by now.
Duan Qingxi sneered in his heart. He never thought that the level of Duan Shishi in this life was completely inferior to that of Duan Shishi in the 21st century.
But think about it, Duan Qingxi in the previous life was a real rich girl, while Duan Shishi was just the daughter of a stepmother, and she was not even favored by Duan Hong. In that situation, it is normal for her to be more scheming and cunning.
Now...
Duan Qingxi chuckled, moved closer to Duan Shishi, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, there's no need to rush. One day... I'll take everything from you, one by one!"
"you!"
"Oh, sister, I'm so sorry, my head hurts so much, I need to rest..."
After saying that, she turned around and went back to the room, saying, "Qiao Yun, show the guest out!"
Qiao Yun knew that her mistress's current status in the mansion was quite high. After all, she was a princess of the first rank. Even a general had to be polite to her when they met. So what was a young lady from a general's mansion to her?!
Therefore, she was no longer as timid as before, but said to Duan Shishi: "Second Miss, my lady... oh no, my princess needs to rest, please leave."
Duan Shishi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She wished she could burn the whole broken yard to ashes and leave no one alive!
But Qiao Yun's call of "Princess" also reminded her that Duan Qingxi is now a princess of the first rank, unprecedented and unrivaled!
If she loses her temper now, she will be the only one to fall!
It doesn’t matter, there is still a long way to go... Duan Qingxi, just wait for me!
Duan Shishi snorted coldly, turned around and left.
After she walked away, Qiao Yun and Chan Xue breathed a sigh of relief and both of them almost collapsed to the ground.
To be honest, they were really worried that Duan Shishi would rely on her status as the legitimate daughter to do whatever she wanted to Duan Qingxi.
Fortunately, she finally restrained herself this time.
After Duan Shishi left the yard, she happened to see Duan Hong walking towards her, perhaps he also wanted to come and see Duan Qingxi.
Suddenly, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. Duan Shishi covered her face with her sleeves, and her eyes soon became red.
She let Biyu support her and walked carefully towards her yard.
Duan Hong was walking towards them, so he could naturally see Duan Shishi.
Just as he was about to call her, he saw her "unintentionally" exposed red eyes. He immediately walked up to her and said anxiously: "Shi'er, what's wrong with you?!"
Duan Shishi pretended to be surprised to meet Duan Hong here. She seemed very bewildered after being discovered. She quickly covered her eyes with her sleeves and explained in a panic: "No...nothing, Daddy...it's nothing..."
How could Duan Hong believe her words? He forcibly pulled her hand down, but saw a red palm print on her face, and her eyes were red as if she had been crying for a long time.
Duan Hong was both angry and distressed, and angrily asked, "What the hell is going on?! Who hit you?!"
Duan Shishi became increasingly flustered and said, "Nothing...nothing, I just...I just fell down while walking..."
"Fall down?! Can you leave a handprint when you fall down?!"
Seeing that Duan Shishi was unwilling to speak, Duan Hong looked at Biyu and asked, "What on earth is going on?!"
