"Miss Zhao, how do you know so much about Qinger's childhood?"
Yuan Tian's questioning tone made Old Mistress slightly dissatisfied.
This granddaughter of hers had never been easy to deal with …
"I told her!"
Old Mistress said coldly.
When Yuan Tian heard this, she deliberately said loudly, "Oh …"
She glanced at Zhao Ruoxin before she inadvertently sighed, "Isn't Miss Zhao already in her twenties? … "
She meant, 'Are you still acting like a child and only taking a bite after the other person?'
Zhao Ruoxin was embarrassed by her retort. Her face turned green and white, and she could not say a word.
She was somewhat helpless against the Yuan Family's Fifth Miss who did not play by the rules.
When Yuan Ran heard this, she lowered her head and could not hold back her laughter. Old Mistress's expression was already very ugly, and she could not wait to chase Yuan Tian out right now.
Lu Shan was half dead from her daughter's words. She glared at her fiercely and said in a low voice, "You'd better not speak!"
Yuan Tian did not take it seriously. She stuck out her tongue and winked at Mu Chenyan mischievously.
Mu Chenyan suddenly felt that Yuan Tian was living a good life this way.
In the Yuan Family, she was probably the only one who was serious about being herself.
"Miss Zhao shouldn't be as delicate as Qinger. Qinger is also a child who has been spoiled by her grandmother. "Yuan Xuan suddenly said.
Looking at Mu Chenyan, this little foodie, compared to Qinger who was pampered by her grandmother when she was young, Qinger did not eat as enthusiastically as Mu Chenyan.
Yuan Xuan looked at Mu Chenyan. His eyes were indifferent and silent, but they were filled with affection and pity.
Even from a certain distance, she could smell the faint scent of rosin on this man's body.
This feeling of drifting between abstinence and temptation would cause any woman to sink into it …
However, this gaze was only for Mu Chenyan.
Zhao Ruoxin was in a daze. Her hands trembled, and her nails gently dug into her palms …
When they were young, Yuan Xuan and Qinger were considered orphans. They lived together in Upper Mansion and almost never left Old Mistress's side.
The other children were accompanied by their parents, and they would only come to Upper Mansion for family gatherings on Saturdays and Sundays.
It was no wonder that Old Mistress doted on Qinger far more than Yuan Tian, Yuan Zhuan, and Yuan Zhe.
Relationships were not about distance, but about getting along!
…
"Miss Zhao grew up outside, so she's different from Qinger. I'm sure her appetite will be better than hers. Qinger is very picky about food …" Yuan Xuan said faintly as he gave Zhao Ruoxin a meaningful look.
Mu Chenyan could tell from Yuan Xuan's tone that he was trying to differentiate Shu Qinger from Zhao Ruoxin …
How could Zhao Ruoxin not understand the hidden meaning in Yuan Xuan's words? She smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, I'm not as lucky as you to be by Grandmother and Brother's side since young …"
"Miss Zhao, you're too kind!" Mu Chenyan suddenly interrupted Zhao Ruoxin. The starlight in her ink-black eyes dimmed. She continued in a low voice, "Qinger wasn't lucky … She's already dead …"
Compared to a tragic death, it was a blessing to be able to sit here today!
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely stifling!
This was the first time Mu Chenyan had taken the initiative to mention Shu Qinger's death in public!
To others, this matter was just a matter of the past!
However, to Mu Chenyan, the painful experience from two years ago and the various unfair treatments she had suffered during these two years might follow her like a shadow for the rest of her life …
Everyone chose to remain silent!
In such an occasion, it was probably inappropriate for anyone to speak up!
Mu Chenyan and Zhao Ruoxin were actually considered victims!
Zhao Ruoxin was quiet for a while. With tears in the corner of her eyes, she said faintly, "Yes, Chenyan is right. My sister is no longer here! Sometimes, when I look at my sister's childhood photos, I feel that the other me is mischievous in the Yuan Family … "
Zhao Ruoxin's words touched everyone's hearts.
Apart from Mu Chenyan, everyone here had deep contact with Shu Qinger when she was young!
"Chenyan, you're right. My sister's life was bitter …"
From the beginning to the end, Zhao Ruoxin's behavior had puzzled everyone. She had never doubted the only "suspect", Mu Chenyan, like the others …
Even Feng Rao's reaction was more intense than hers!
Perhaps from a certain perspective, Zhao Ruoxin seemed to care more about Yuan Xuan than Shu Qinger …
