Favoring a Hidden Mistress? Engagement Broken Chapter 238 - 165: Letting Go

Xie Wanneng was sowhat surprised, she gently tugged at the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Yesterday, I was beside my brother and heard your conversation. Now that I think about it, I did fail to co forward and thank you personally, which was indeed rude. Please, sister-in-law, thank your family brother on my behalf for his concern."

... So she heard everything.

But before they realized it, the proud Little Princess had already left.

Recalling those conversations with Xie YanYu, Xie Wanneng was montarily at a loss for words.

"Why such an expression, sister-in-law," Pei Yuxuan smiled, covering her mouth, "It’s good that you heard them, this way I can completely give up."

"... Stop laughing," Xie Wanneng looked at her and said, "If you’re unhappy, don’t force yourself."

Pei Yuxuan’s eyes hardened, she put down the hand covering her mouth and her smile faded.

"Actually..." Xie Wanneng hesitated a bit, "Actually, my brother to you..."

"It doesn’t matter anymore," Pei Yuxuan said blandly, "How he feels doesn’t matter anymore."

Bringing up Xie YanYu again, her eyes no longer shone like stars, seemingly having completely moved on.

Xie Wanneng felt her heart slowly sinking, oddly distressed.

She could understand the feelings of a young girl whose budding love had been extinguished.

At this point, she could only hope her brother indeed had no interest in the Commandery Princess, thus ending their entanglent.

Not ntioning Xie YanYu, Xie Wanneng then shifted the topic to the Second Prince and Cao Yingying’s affair she had witnessed the previous afternoon, briefly organizing her words, and discussed it with Pei Yuxuan.

Finally, facing the gradually dazed girl, she earnestly said, "You previously had a deep connection with Cao Yingying but it’s prudent to be wary of others; my brother and I think you should not have any interactions with her in the future."

Not to ntion they might already suspect the affair being exposed, just considering how soone like Cao Yingying, with such conduct, willingly acts in a degrading manner, a respectable young lady should definitely stay away.

Pei Yuxuan was just like her in the past life, growing up in a deep boudoir, with the most exposure being the social interactions of the house’s madams. To first hear that a close sister was involved with a man outside, conducting an affair in broad daylight, how could she not be shocked.

After barely digesting this news, she reacted and asked lots of questions in succession.

Xie Wanneng couldn’t describe the various details well, so she could only dodge them, but Pei Yuxuan was clearly extrely curious, persistently asking.

When she really couldn’t answer anymore, Pei Yuqing returned from the Eldest Princess, seeing his wife’s forehead drenched in sweat, he looked at his younger sister, his expression solemn and said, "What’s happening here? Do not trouble your sister-in-law."

Pei Yuxuan lightly humd while supporting her chin, "Sister-in-law treats like a child, avoiding everything, though I’m in fact a year older than her."

Xie Wanneng paused for a mont, helplessly said, "An affair is an affair, why do you keep wanting to know the specifics."

With this exchange, Pei Yuqing understood clearly; he didn’t intend to lecture his sister, imdiately pointed at the doorway, "Go back."

Though Pei Yuxuan had a bit of a mischievous personality, she greatly respected her brother. Hearing this, she stood up, offered a formal bow, and obediently left.

Watching this, Xie Wanneng was sowhat tongue-tied, she said to the man who had already co closer, "I couldn’t tell, you are even scarier than my brother."

"How is it scary..."

Pei Yuqing extended a finger to brush her nose, lowered his head, and moved in to kiss her. Xie Wanneng quickly turned her head to avoid, but her chin was firmly held, allowing the kiss to land successfully on her lips, then left imdiately.
