Chapter 294 - 294 295 Half Truth Half False_1
?Chapter 294: Chapter 295 Half Truth, Half False_1 Chapter 294: Chapter 295 Half Truth, Half False_1 Jian Yue’s words were a combination of grace and authority. On one hand, she reminded Muniang not to be narrow-minded, and on the other, she reassured her—the position of Princess of the Yu Family was hers, and no one else could take it. Jian Yue believed this approach should help Muniang more easily accept certain matters.
Muniang, however, sneered inwardly. So this was He Suxue’s doing. No sooner had she left than she came back to feign innocence and seek sympathy, trying to trap her into appearing cruel and unjust, right? Hearing Jian Yue’s subtly crafted words, Muniang knew that He Suxue had been speaking ill of her, adding fuel to the fire. It was fortunate that Jian Yue was good-natured; had it been someone else, they might have already kicked her out of the house.
Muniang pursed her lips, suppressing the anger in her heart, and laughed softly. “Mother worries too much. Ever since I learned of Ze’s identity, I have begun to strictly discipline myself in speech and conduct. I am truly touched that Miss He took the trouble to visit, and I treat her as my own sister. If there’s any way in which I’ve been negligent, resulting in her discomfort, I ask Mother to please point it out.”
Jian Yue was slightly taken aback. How could Muniang appear as if she knew nothing of the matter? Could it be that He Suxue had lied to her?
Jian Yue cleared her throat and then said, “Suxue claimed that you cannot stand her, that you have spoken harshly to her, and, and that you even physically harmed her. While it’s possible she’s not entirely blameless, resorting to violence is truly beneath one’s dignity—”
Muniang exclaimed in astonishment, “Miss He said that? I certainly never did any of those things!”
