Chapter 477, Disgusting
When Daohua and Dong Yuanyao arrived at Jiang Wanying's room, Chen Jiarou had already arrived. Seeing them, she immediately stood up with a smile and said, "Sisters, please take a seat!"
In the room, Jiang Wanying was still half lying on the boat because of seasickness, and Chen Jiarou was sitting on a stool in front of the bed.
Daohua and Dong Yuanyao took a look at the furnishings in the room and sat down on the chairs in front of the window.
Jiang Wanying apologized and said, "I'm sorry for neglecting my two younger sisters."
Daohua and Dong Yuanyao both smiled and shook their heads.
After the maid served tea, Dong Yuanyao asked directly, "I wonder why Miss Jiang and Miss Chen called us here?"
Chen Jiarou glanced at Jiang Wanying, then smiled at Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, her gaze focused on Daohua. "We're going back to Ningmen Mansion today. Have you two sisters thought about how to explain these days' events to your elders when you get home?"
Daohua felt uncomfortable when Chen Jiarou looked at her, and said lightly: "Of course I'm telling the truth."
Chen Jiarou paused, then smiled and said, "We were all kidnapped at the same time that day, so it must have caused quite a stir. What if, I mean what if, someone knew something and spread rumors, what would happen to the two sisters?"
Daohua sneered, picked up the teacup and said nothing.
Dong Yuanyao glanced at Chen Jiarou with a half-smile, then glanced at the frail Jiang Wanying lying on the bed. "What do you think, Miss Jiang and Miss Chen?"
Chen Jiarou was silent for a moment, then looked up at Daohua. "Sister Yan's father is the highest official in Ningmen Prefecture, and tomorrow is Old Madam Yan's birthday. Why don't you find an opportunity to clarify things in person tomorrow?"
Daohua sneered, "Miss Chen, have you forgotten how this happened and who caused it? Why is it my turn to clarify things now?"
When it comes to matters involving reputation, once you are involved, people won't care about the truth or not, and you will get into trouble anyway because of the public opinion.
This Chen Jiarou is good at getting rid of burdens and shirking responsibilities.
Chen Jiarou's breath hitched, and she once again experienced Yan Yiyi's ruthlessness. The smile on her face faded. "I just think it's better for Sister Yan to come forward and explain. After all, from the beginning to the end, Miss Jiang, Miss Dong, and I were together. It was only you, Miss Yan, who disappeared alone for a few days. No one knows what happened during those days."
Daohua's face turned completely cold. "Miss Chen, are you threatening me? If I don't do as you say, are you going to tell anyone about my disappearance?"
Chen Jiarou pursed her lips and said nothing, which was considered as her agreement.
Daohua snorted coldly and stopped Dong Yuanyao who was about to speak for her. She looked at Chen Jiarou coldly and also glanced at Jiang Wanying. It was obvious that this method was discussed by the two of them.
Isn't it because he thinks that among the four people, her family has no background and no power, so it's easiest to suppress them?
Daohua said coldly, "Miss Chen, Miss Jiang, the kidnappers are targeting you. Yuan Yao and I are only implicated. Please remember this."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou's faces turned unhappy.
Daohua's voice grew colder. "Whoever caused this should come forward and explain. If I lose my reputation, you who were kidnapped with me won't be able to escape unscathed. Anyway, I come from a poor family, and I don't have much reputation to begin with. Even if my reputation is damaged, it's not a big deal."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Wanying's face turned pale.
The Yan family may not care, but the Jiang family has to care, because this is related to the empress dowager and the queen in the palace.
Jiang Wanying looked at Dong Yuanyao. She didn't believe the Dong family and didn't care.
Dong Yuanyao turned his head away without looking at her.
Just now, Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou teamed up to let Yi Yi, who had the lowest family background, bear the blame for the kidnapping alone. Now that Yi Yi has given it her all, Jiang Wanying, who has the best family background, has become the most worried one.
Jiang Wanying took a deep breath and forced a smile, saying, "Miss Yan, please don't be so angry. Didn't we ask you to come here to discuss this?"
Daohua was too lazy to play along with her: "Miss Jiang, how about you come forward and clarify what Miss Chen said?"
Jiang Wanying's expression changed instantly.
Before she could say anything, Daohua sneered, "Look, aren't you angry now too? As a person, you should always put yourself in other people's shoes. Yuanyao and I are victims, and we haven't even asked you for compensation yet. And yet you two are trying to push me out of the way. There's no such thing as that."
Jiang Wanying took a deep breath, and her already dizzy head felt even more uncomfortable.
Daohua stood up and said, "There's one more thing I think you two have forgotten. I must remind you that both Sun Changze and my guards were here to save me. I was left behind because you were delayed getting on the carriage. If you really think about it, I should be considered your savior."
"You pushed your savior out to block the dirty water. If this gets out, I'm afraid that saying you're ungrateful would be an understatement." After saying that, he glanced at Dong Yuanyao and walked straight out.
When they reached the door, Daohua turned around again and said, "Girls, please think carefully about how to explain. Before the ship arrives at the Ningmenfu Pier, remember to send someone to inform me. Otherwise, I can only solve the problem in my own way." After that, she left.
Dong Yuanyao also left.
After going out, Dong Yuanyao took Daohua's arm and said, "You are quite tough!"
Daohua smiled faintly and said, "They just took advantage of my weak family background and thought I was easy to suppress. If I just showed some strength, they wouldn't be able to do anything to me."
The four of them were tied up together and were going back together, so they were destined to be tied together. If she wasn't okay, the others wouldn't be okay either.
The two of them came to the deck, and Dong Yuanyao pondered, "This matter really needs to be handled properly. Our reputations are related to both you and me. We can't afford to get angry with them. Do you have any ideas?"
Daohua: "This matter shouldn't be difficult to resolve, but those two chose to disgust me. Let them worry first. Don't worry, those two are not worth the loss of reputation for you or me."
At this time, Dong Yuanxuan came over.
"Why are you two standing outside?"
Daohua smiled and said, "I've been staying in the house for too long. I want to come out and get some fresh air."
Dong Yuanxuan smiled and said, "The fog is quite thick today. Don't stay outside for too long, or you might catch a cold." As he said that, he looked at the two people who were not even wearing cloaks and handed the hand warmer in his hand to them.
Daohua moved aside and signaled Dong Yuanyao to take it.
After Dong Yuanyao took it with a smile, Dong Yuanxuan immediately said, "I'll ask someone to get another one."
Daohua quickly shook her head: "No, I have it in my room. I just left in a hurry and forgot to take it with me. Now we have to go back too, so I won't bother Brother Dong anymore."
The smile on Dong Yuanxuan's face froze slightly. Was it that he didn't want to bother, or that he didn't want to bother?
