Feng Xili paused in her steps as she was leaving. Kang Jiuyi walked out from behind the crowd and approached her with a look of surprise on his face, completely unaware of the sudden change in the expression of the woman behind her.

"Xier, did you come out by yourself?" Jiuyi held her hand affectionately. There were two small dimples on her bright face, which was very cute.

"Well, the weather is nice, let's go out for a walk." She patted Kang Jiuyi's hand and winked at her secretly: "I'll ask you out some other day."

Luo Yurong felt uncomfortable when he saw his friend smiling happily with others.

When she recognized that this person was General Xiao's fiancée who had broken off the engagement some time ago, her dissatisfaction reached its peak.

"Huh? Isn't this the concubine's daughter from the Prime Minister's family who had her engagement broken off a few days ago?" She spoke with full of malice and raised her voice obviously. Many people in the store looked over.

Cuxiangju was originally a place for entertainment after dinner, but now it seemed like there was gossip to listen to, and everyone glanced at it from time to time. Feng Xili laughed angrily.

What did her shy look when she stole a peek at Xiao Ze's profile on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day mean? Now it is clear as day.

This little girl is in love for the first time and actually fell in love with Xiao Ze. Her face can't hide her true feelings, and Xiao Ze probably knows what's going on.

That scumbag! Is he planning to deceive the innocent girl again?

Since she is Jiuyi’s close friend, I won’t bother with her.

Feng Xili glanced at her lightly, then walked past her without looking away and walked towards the door.

Luo Yurong's ridicule was met with no response, like hitting cotton balls. Her head was hot, and she yelled in a sarcastic tone, "Looking at you, you look like a decent person, I'm afraid no one would have thought that you would secretly meet a man in the middle of the night!"

After he finished speaking, there was silence for a moment. Kang Jiuyi's face changed drastically, and the faces of the people who were traveling with her also turned unhappy. It was not appropriate for these unmarried girls to talk about such a secret meeting with a man in the middle of the night.

What's more, she was accused in public of meeting a man in the middle of the night?

Feng Xili frowned. If she could tolerate this kind of slander, she wouldn't have to go through the trouble of breaking off the engagement before.

She turned around and looked at someone with an arrogant look on his face, then looked at Kang Jiuyi with an embarrassed look on his face, and sighed.

"I wonder how this girl knew that I was meeting a man in the middle of the night?" Haha, she and Xiao Ze are really birds of a feather.

Without waiting for her to reply, Feng Xili pressed on, "Putting aside whether I did or not, just the idea of ​​a secret meeting in the middle of the night, is it something you, a young woman waiting to be married, can casually discuss?"

She looked at the pale face of the person opposite her and continued, "If I said I had a secret meeting in the middle of the night, did you see it with your own eyes? Where? When? What was I wearing? Do you remember?"

"If you heard it from someone else, who was it that started it? Call him over and I'll confront him. If not, then it's just your imagination."

Her words were sharp and her rebuttal was well-reasoned, which made Luo Yurong panic and stare at her with tears in his eyes.

"Who would dare to confide in you when you casually accuse others like this? Don't say such things so casually."

Feng Xili knew when to quit. She was able to refute Xiao Ze's slander with the witnesses and evidence he prepared. How could this little girl want to throw dirty water on her with just a few words?

Go dream!

Lai Xiang followed Feng Xili, looking at her young lady with admiration.

"Miss, what you did just now was really beautiful! Didn't you see how ugly that girl's face was?" Lai Xiang covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She felt that the young lady seemed to have let herself go recently and was very angry.

"Miss?" Lai Ye watched Lai Xiang laughing to herself and didn't notice Feng Xili's sad face.

She turned her head and looked at the two maids. "That Luo Yurong is, after all, the daughter of the Grand Tutor and a close friend of Jiuyi's. After today, I'm sure she'll say a lot of bad things about me behind my back."

You finally found a friend with similar interests, don't let that brainless one ruin you.

It's a pity that she is a legitimate daughter, and I am just a concubine's daughter. The difference between legitimate and concubine's daughters is really a gap that is difficult to cross. I'd better avoid her in the future.

After Feng Xili finished her scolding, she ran away, leaving Luo Yurong and the others there to be pointed at and criticized.

After all, the little girl is young and is too well protected by her family, so she feels wronged and cries with tears and snot.

None of them were in the mood to eat, so they all got into Chu Linxuan's carriage. Meng Yao and the other two whispered to comfort Luo Yurong. Although Kang Jiuyi was also sitting in the carriage, he pursed his lips and did not speak.

She truly felt that Yurong's slander of a young woman was inappropriate. However, she and Yurong had grown up together, all at a young age of innocence. How could she be so careless?

Luo Yurong cried for a while and felt a little better. But when she looked up, she saw Jiuyi biting her lower lip and staring at the ground without saying a word to her. In an instant, she felt that her friend didn't care about her anymore, and her red and swollen eyes were covered with a layer of mist again.

"Jiuyi, do you also think I've gone too far?" she asked with a choked voice, sobbing. Meng Yao and Chu Linxuan beside her kept winking at her.

Kang Jiuyi looked at her helplessly, "I, I didn't say that."

"You obviously think so. You think what I just said was too much."

"So, that's why you have been ignoring me, right?" Luo Yurong choked and spoke intermittently, her tear-stained little face looking pitiful.

Kang Jiuyi had no choice but to stretch out his arm and hold her hand, saying softly: "Yurong, I'm not ignoring you, it's just, it's just..."

"A woman's reputation is extremely important. You and Xuanxuan haven't discussed marriage yet. You must never joke about other people's reputation again."

Kang Jiuyi tried to persuade Yurong earnestly, saying that she had already reached marriage age and that it was only a matter of time before they would get married. If she was fond of arguing, it would affect her reputation in the future.

After hearing her sermon, Luo Yurong felt that his good friend had been snatched away. He felt panicked and extremely embarrassed, and fell on her legs and burst into tears.

Kang Jiuyi's eyes twitched. Why didn't he realize that Yurong was so childish before?

She patted Meng Yao and Chu Linxuan, who were sitting on either side of Yu Rong. "Ayao, Xuanxuan, my mother asked me to bring her some peach cakes today. I'll be leaving now. We'll meet again at the tea banquet in two days."

After saying this, without waiting for their reaction, he lifted the carriage curtain and left.

"Xuanxuan, Jiuyi doesn't want me anymore. She left and she will ignore me from now on!" Yu Rong watched Jiuyi get off the carriage without looking back, and felt even more resentful towards Feng Xili.

It's all because of her!

That woman stole General Xiao and didn't want him anymore, and now she's trying to snatch Jiuyi from her. Why is she so annoying? Why doesn't she just die?

The sad and aggrieved Luo Yurong had no idea that he had malicious thoughts that he shouldn't have.

Kang Jiuyi got off the carriage and left quickly. Yu Rong's crying gave her a headache. If she was wrong, she could just admit it and correct it. Why did she keep crying and making trouble like a child? How would she get married in the future?
