Xia Yayun’s face flushed red from holding it in.
She did not know how Xie Qiao was capable of saying such things!
She always looked like she was going to die, but every word she said was harsh!
“Shameless! You’re shameless!” Xia Yayun practically howled, “Your eldest brother isn’t even worthy of a single finger of my Sister Dong! How dare he speak such nonsense?! Your Xie family was born as bandits, and your entire family is a bunch of idiots and trash. If not for the grand preceptor backing you up, do you think your Xie family’s background alone is enough to survive in the capital?!”
Xie Qiao’s cold gaze swept past Xia Yayun.
She was neither flustered nor angry, and her expression was calm.
“You’ve already criticised me to this extent, so I shouldn’t give in to you,” Xie Qiao closed her book and seemed to be seriously thinking for a moment, only then did she open her mouth and say, “My family was indeed born as a bandit, but I was also lucky to be able to let this bandit’s daughter be in the same academy as you, Young Lady Xia. Unlike you, Young Lady Xia, you were born wealthy from a young age, but as you grew up, you went down the slope.
“Look at you now. Your fierce eyes have turned white, your heart is like poison, your masculine voice is fierce and violent, and you’re filled with ignorance and stubbornness. I’m afraid you won’t have a good ending in the future,” Xie Qiao said sarcastically.
Her fate was indeed good.
However, if her heart was malevolent, it would definitely appear in her eyes. Her eyes were vicious, her voice was evil, and her nose was soft. The lines on the marriage palace had changed, and she was no longer a wife!
Even if she was wealthy, she would not become a wife!
Xia Yayun’s face was malevolent and resentful, “I won’t have a good ending?! Xie Qiao, I want to see who will have a miserable ending between us!”
Xia Yayun uttered a harsh comment.
Initially, she only needed to win against Xie Qiao and drive her out of the academy, but now…
It was far from enough!
The others were shocked by Xia Yayun’s behavior.
And the tit-for-tat words between the two soon reached Dong Xiyun’s ears in the Peony Courtyard.
Hearing what Xie Qiao said, Dong Xiyun’s face turned pale and tears fell. She buried her head and cried, causing many people to feel heartbroken.
On the men’s side, there were also people who came when they heard the commotion. They comforted Dong Xiyun, but it was useless.
They heard Xie Qiao’s slander from other people’s mouths, and they could not contain their anger.
They directly came to their courtyard.
“Young Lady Xie, as a woman, how can you be so vicious? Quickly apologize to Young Lady Dong!” Xie Qiao knew the person who came, his name should be Qi Huai.
When they had slandered her for using a forged painting earlier, this person was the leader of the men’s academy and had been aggressive towards her.
It was quite difficult for Xie Qiao to review her homework.
These groups of people must have too much time on their hands.
“I didn’t do anything wrong. I won’t apologize,” Xie Qiao sat there like an old priest and was quite relaxed.
Qi Huai was angry, “Why do you not understand human language? What happened back then was your eldest brother’s fault. Young Lady Dong was kind and didn’t argue with him. How could you deliberately mention it to make Young Lady Dong sad?!”
Xie Qiao raised her head sarcastically.
Did she not argue with her eldest brother?
Earlier, her eldest brother was an eighth-rank official in the military camp. According to his military achievements in fighting barbarians and his own strength, if he stayed in the military camp forever, his future would be bright.
Due of Dong Xiyun’s matter, he lost his position.
Therefore, he could only go to the criminal division to do errands as an executioner.
That errand was only slightly better than the ordinary police, but the work was almost the same. If it were not for the fact that he solved two cases in a row, took all the credit, and won the favor of the Crown Prince, it would have taken at least a few years for him to get a proper official position. In fact, he even had to climb up one rank after another!
Although his current position was just an eighth-rank official, if he worked hard, he could achieve things that some people might not be able to for the rest of their lives!
