"Hmph," Qin Shuyang sneered, "Xiang Qin, your tongue is indeed sharp, to actually dare threaten !"
"It’s rely a reminder. The Qin Family is also a prominent family in Xun City. If Young Master Qin were to disgrace the Qin Family with his unseemly words, I believe Old Master Qin would not easily let Young Master Qin off the hook."
"Xiang Qin!"
"Owing to the relationship between your lord and Young Master Qin, you could rightfully address as sister-in-law. If Young Master Qin is unwilling, you may also call Xie Ruotong. But Xiang Qin is certainly not my na."
"You really think you can threaten ! Do you believe that if I tell Song Yanqing about your affairs at Yicui Pavilion, he won’t care that you’re an impure woman?"
"It really is so, with Young Master Qin, nothing can be discussed amiably," Xie Ruotong appeared sowhat helpless, not taking Qin Shuyang’s threat seriously, "No matter how I explain it, Young Master Qin won’t listen, so it’s useless to say more. Whatever Young Master Qin wishes to do, I cannot stop you, so do as you please. But now, if Young Master Qin does not let go of , I will scream harassnt. When that happens, whether Young Master Qin can face the public with the accusation of molesting a decent woman, I’ll let Young Master Qin weigh that himself."
Having said that, Xie Ruotong was ready to shout loudly.
Qin Shuyang imdiately let go of Xie Ruotong.
He naturally knew that if this got out, being accused of molesting a decent woman in the streets, let alone the woman of his brother, his face would not endure it.
And if the Song Family went to his father about this, he would be beaten to death.
But having been threatened by Xie Ruotong in such a manner, he was naturally not feeling good about it.
Xie Ruotong didn’t care about Qin Shuyang’s mood at all, and in a calm and composed voice she said, "Qiao’er, let’s go."
"Yes, Miss," Qiao’er quickly replied with respect.
She called the other attendants, and they all left together.
She couldn’t help but feel sowhat impressed with her young mistress.
She always thought that the young mistress, when at the Duke Mansion, was as docile as a cat, but she never anticipated that when faced with a real issue, the young mistress could be so dignified and calm.
In the Song Residence, she thought the young mistress would surely endure endless grievances because of the second young mistress.
However, after marrying into the Song Family, apart from the lukewarm affection with the son-in-law, she really didn’t suffer any grievances at all. The older mbers of the Song Family even praised the young mistress, and the servants at ho all listened to her. In contrast, it was the second young mistress who, despite gaining her husband’s affection, didn’t gain any advantages in the Song Family.
She wondered if the second young mistress was frustrated.
Xie Ruotong led her entourage away with heads held high.
Qin Shuyang was so angry his face turned green.
He, the legitimate son and future official of the Qin Family, was actually unable to handle a courtesan?!
Xie Ruotong was definitely Xiang Qin; no matter how much she denied it, he would never believe otherwise.
He clenched his teeth in a silent rage, preparing to leave.
"Young Master Qin." A maid approached, calling out to him.
Qin Shuyang looked over but didn’t recognize whose servant she was.
"I am Chun Tao, the maid of the second young mistress of the Duke Mansion, concubine of Song the Scholar," the maid quickly introduced herself.
Qin Shuyang frowned.
He had no interest whatsoever in that second Miss Xie.
Of course, he had seen her in the Song Residence and she had never caught his eye; girls like Xie Ruilin, with that kind of appearance and temperant, were a di a dozen among the noble ladies of Daxuan Kingdom, igniting no desire or thoughts in n.
He also didn’t understand why Song Yanqing would like Xie Ruilin.
"What is it?" Qin Shuyang asked, clearly impatient.
"My young mistress invites you to the teahouse upstairs for a gathering," the maid said.
"This young master is busy," Qin Shuyang was about to refuse outright.
"My young mistress wishes to speak with Young Master Qin regarding the young mistress," Chun Tao enticed.
Qin Shuyang looked at Chun Tao.
"This way please, Young Master Qin," Chun Tao took the initiative to invite him.
Qin Shuyang thought for a mont and then followed Chun Tao to the teahouse.
In an upstairs room facing the street, Xie Ruilin was sitting inside, savoring her tea.
In every gesture and motion, she fully exhibited the grace of a young lady from a distinguished family.
However, in Qin Shuyang’s eyes, it was all sorts of affectation and extrely displeasing.
"I hear the second Miss Xie has sought out," Qin Shuyang asked in a casual manner.
"Young Master Qin, please have a seat."
"There are matters waiting for at ho tonight, I don’t have the leisure that Miss Xie does," aning don’t waste his ti.
At this point, he sat down in front of Xie Ruilin.
Xie Ruilin naturally felt uncomfortable inside.
Just now, she had witnessed with her own eyes Qin Shuyang’s attentive attitude towards Xie Ruotong, but now he was so cold towards her.
Is this man blind?!
Is she not lovelier than Xie Ruotong?!
