Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 24 Why can’t I be here?
Zhao Qingshan also reacted. He lifted up his clothes and, regardless of the heavy rain outside, climbed up the pillar next to him and leaped over the grove of flowers and trees, disappearing without a trace.
As soon as Zhao Qingshan left, Xiao Mingyue led a group of people over.
The one walking in front was naturally Lin. She was concerned about her daughter getting wet in the rain, so she walked the fastest.
Next came Yao and her group of maids and servants.
After all, it was a flower-viewing party held at her own home. If something happened to Xiao Qianqian, it would be difficult for her to explain to the Xiao family.
"Oh! Who is in that pavilion? Why is there someone else?"
Because it was raining heavily, Xiao Mingyue only saw a white figure in the pavilion, and thought it must be Zhao Qingshan, so she pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth and shouted.
"you shut up!"
Lin wished she could tear Xiao Mingyue's mouth apart.
It was she who left with her daughter, but who would have thought that she would come back alone. Lin became a little worried and was about to get up to look for her when it started to rain.
When Yao saw two figures, her heart skipped a beat. She glanced at Lin and walked towards the pavilion first.
Xiao Mingyue followed Lin and advised loudly, "Don't worry, Third Aunt. Those who came to the General's Mansion today are all people of status. Even if Fifth Sister ran into a young master, I think nothing will happen. It's nothing more than hiding from the rain together."
"You still said that!"
Lin wanted to slap Xiao Mingyue, but she couldn't do it now.
Following Yao's quick steps into the pavilion, when he saw Xiao Ruge and Xiao Qianqian together, he suddenly felt like he had survived a disaster.
"Ruge, it's you!"
Hearing Lin's words, Xiao Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and she quickly walked into the pavilion.
When he saw that it was Xiao Ruge, not Zhao Qingshan, standing next to Xiao Qianqian, the smugness on his face instantly disappeared.
"Xiao Ruge, why is it you?"
"I just drank a few more glasses and wanted to come out to sober up, but it suddenly started raining, so I hid here to avoid the rain. Who knew I would run into the fifth sister."
Xiao Ruge explained with a smile, then looked at Xiao Mingyue and asked in confusion: "Fourth sister, what are you talking about? Are you surprised to see me here?"
"No, I just wondered why you were here."
Xiao Mingyue immediately put away the expression on her face and smiled to hide it.
"Why can't I be here? Could it be that in Fourth Sister's mind, there could be someone else here?"
Ever since Xiao Mingyue took Xiao Qianqian away, Xiao Ruge knew that she had bad intentions and had been secretly following them.
It was not until she saw Zhao Qingshan coming over that she became more certain of what she was thinking, and only then did she come forward to help Xiao Qianqian out of the predicament.
"How is it possible? This is the general's backyard. How could there be other people here?"
Xiao Mingyue could only try her best to make excuses; she couldn't let anyone know her plan.
At this time, Mrs. Lin had already held Xiao Qianqian's hand and looked at her daughter carefully. Only after she was relieved that she was fine did she feel relieved.
Although Yao didn't say anything, she could tell from the conversation between Xiao Ruge and Xiao Mingyue that the fourth young lady of the Xiao family was probably up to some conspiracy and had failed.
So he smiled coldly, glared at Xiao Mingyue, turned around and said to Lin gently: "I'm really sorry for scaring Miss Wu today. I'll have someone prepare some supplements. Take some with you when you leave, and stew them at home to calm Miss Wu down."
"You are too polite, Madam General. My daughter was not frightened, so there is no need to spend money!"
Although Lin said so, Yao heard that the fifth young lady of the Xiao family had always been weak, so she asked someone to bring a cloak and personally led her back to the waterside pavilion.
Because of the rain, we couldn't enjoy the flowers, and the party ended when the rain stopped.
Yao personally sent Lin and others to the carriage. She did not even look at Xiao Mingyue during the whole process. Finally, she took Xiao Ruge's hand and reminded her to walk around more when she had time.
Xiao Ruge agreed to everything and then got on the carriage and left.
Because Lin was worried about her daughter and wanted to find out what had happened, she took Xiao Qianqian into a carriage.
As for Xiao Ruge and Xiao Mingyue, they were sitting in another carriage, each guarding a corner.
Xiao Mingyue couldn't understand it. It was obviously Zhao Qingshan who should have appeared in the pavilion, so how come it became Xiao Ruge?
Could it be that something went wrong with Chunzhi?
Thinking of Chunzhi's surprised look after seeing Xiao Ruge, Xiao Mingyue's brows furrowed more and more.
"Fourth sister, what are you thinking about?"
Xiao Ruge leaned leisurely on the cushion, looking at Xiao Mingyue with his dark eyes inquiringly, which made Xiao Mingyue's heart shudder.
"I didn't think anything of it."
Xiao Ruge raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "I heard that General Lu was here today too. What a pity that I didn't get to meet him. Last time, he said he wanted to thank him!"
When Xiao Mingyue heard Xiao Ruge say this, she immediately turned around and looked at her warily, saying, "I have already told General Lu about my thanks last time, and he told Second Sister not to take it to heart."
"Oh, well then! General Lu is really a warm-hearted person!"
The more Xiao Ruge praised Lu Yu, the more defensive Xiao Mingyue became.
She thought that she had to settle down with Lu Yu as soon as possible, otherwise Xiao Ruge would snatch him away sooner or later.
Xiao Ruge knew exactly what Xiao Mingyue was thinking.
The reason why she said that just now was intentional. She wanted to see, if she were to live again, would Xiao Mingyue still do something out of the ordinary regardless of the consequences.
The carriage swayed back to the Xiao Mansion. Xiao Ruge saw that Lin's face was very bad, especially when facing Xiao Mingyue. She wished she could eat her alive.
She knew that Lin knew everything.
She curled the corners of her mouth, ignored them, and went back to her Ruyi Garden.
The next day, Lin brought Xiao Qianqian to Ruyi Garden to talk to Xiao Ruge, and also brought a pair of cloisonné bracelets.
"Ruge, I will remember your kindness to my family. If it weren't for you yesterday, Qianqian's reputation would have been ruined. This pair of bracelets is my thank you gift, so please accept them!"
Lin pushed the bracelet in front of Xiao Ruge.
Xiao Ruge smiled and said, "Third Aunt, you are too polite. Fifth Sister and I are sisters, and it is only natural for us to help each other."
A comforting smile appeared on Lin's face and she clenched Xiao Qianqian's hand.
"To be honest, even though Third Aunt has a son, Qianqian is my dearest. If anything had happened to her yesterday, Third Aunt would have gone to fight that little bitch Xiao Mingyue no matter what!"
"Mom, I'm fine, why are you saying this?"
Xiao Qianqian was good-tempered. It was not until her mother told her the secret last night that she realized that Xiao Mingyue had plotted against her.
But the two of them had no grudges against each other, so why did she plot against herself? This made Xiao Qianqian unable to understand.
After the three of them said a few words, Lin looked at Bai Zhi who was guarding the door, and then said softly: "I told your uncle about your previous proposal last night, and he agreed. But if this thing is to be done, I'm afraid it will be difficult, right?"
