Chapter 1413: Putting the blame on others and taking over other people’s business
"..."
Xuanxuan was speechless, her face flushed, and she slowly shook her head:
"I, but I've paid no less than Mu Ning... Never mind. No matter how much I say, you won't believe me. I know you'll laugh at my naiveté. Master, I don't mean anything else. It's just that once you wake up, I'll be leaving soon. From now on, I won't be able to see you every day anymore. So, there's no point in me saying anything more. It will only make me laugh."
Xuanxuan said as her legs were being massaged. After a pause, she stood up straight and said, "Also, you're wrong. Dasha didn't leave without you. She just couldn't leave."
This successfully captured Zhuang Shiyuan's attention. He fixed his gaze on her face, and Xuanxuan smiled. He wouldn't listen to her, of course. After all, she was a stranger to him. With his status, how could he even take a stranger seriously? But he'd always care about someone he once cared about.
Xuanxuan is indeed not stupid. After repeatedly hinting without getting the expected results, she naturally changed her tactics.
She didn't have a good life, and neither did Mu Ning. In her opinion, she and Mu Ning were the same people. Why could Mu Dasha find such a good home, while she would soon have to worry about her livelihood?
She is not worse than anyone else. She doesn't compare herself with others. She just stares at Mu Ning. What she can't get, Mu Ning, can't get either.
Young Master Zhuang is not interested in her affairs, but he will definitely pay attention to Mu Ning's affairs, right?
"Young Master, what you don't know is that Dasha ran away before. She was flirting with someone here. That person seemed to be called Ye Long. It was even reported in the newspaper. Because it was in the newspaper, Dasha saw that the matter had become a big deal. She was afraid that the Third Master and the Third Madam would be furious after knowing about it, so she ran away with the man named Ye Long at night, but was brought back by the Third Master's people the next morning. I was cooking breakfast at the time. After she came back, there were people guarding outside for several days. But I don't know what she said to the Third Madam later, and the Third Madam forgave her."
Xuanxuan watched Zhuang Shiyuan's face turn pale little by little, and she still felt a little scared in her heart. Unless Zhuang Shiyuan trusted her very much, this matter would not be exposed when she confronted Mu Ning.
Zhuang Shiyuan's face was pale, his bony hands dug deep into his flesh. The veins on the back of his hands and the twisted expression on his face showed that he was furious, and his anger was unresolved.
Xuanxuan was silent for a long time and didn't hear his roar, so she plucked up the courage to continue.
"Third Madam is kind and gentle, and trusts people easily. Moreover, Dasha is someone you like, so Third Madam tried every means to keep her. Third Madam often said that everyone makes mistakes, and we can't deny Dasha as a person just because she made a mistake once, so she gave her a chance to reform. However, Dasha only behaved well in front of Third Master and Third Madam. When Third Madam was not around, she still often ran away..."
When Xuanxuan said this, she suddenly remembered the gossip magazine that Mu Ning had in the study, and she immediately changed the subject, "Master, wait a minute, I've got something for you to see!"
It was only recently, while wandering around the study, that she noticed Mu Ning had actually bought the gossip magazine that had been the subject of the original news. Mu Dasha wasn't one to discuss gossip, but she'd secretly bought that magazine. How ridiculous, pretending to be so innocent, when in reality? Was he hiding the magazine to mock her behind her back?
Xuanxuan only saw it briefly and couldn't remember the exact location. She searched for a long time before finding it.
Xuanxuan pulled out a gossip magazine from a pile of comic monthlies, found the report, cut up the woman's figure and threw it into the trash can, leaving only Ye Long's, then ran out with the magazine.
"Young Master, look, this is the original report. Dasha cut out her own photo, and now we only see the man, Ye Long. I don't know if you recognize him. It is said that he is a close friend of Young Master Sun Shiqing. They came to Zhuangmen Post Station to hook up with Mu Ning, you see..."
After reading the report, Zhuang Shiyuan was blinded by eye-catching words like "living as a widow", "cuckold", "unsatisfied and cheating on men", etc., and he threw the magazine away.
"Get out, all of you, get out, get out—"
"Master, please don't be angry. I just... If I had known you were so angry, I would have shown it to you. Please don't be angry. You just woke up, Master..."
Xuanxuan picked up the magazine and ran out quickly.
After leaving the house, Xuanxuan leaned against the wall, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, her hands trembling slightly, and murmured to herself: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Dasha, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. You've been working at the banker for so many years and you've gained enough. I've paid no less than you, but I still have nothing..."
Xuanxuan knew that Zhuang Shiyuan had bought the house Mu Ning's parents lived in, that the car Mu Ning's father drove was bought by Zhuang, that the jobs Mu Ning's parents had been arranged by Zhuang, that the massive gambling debts Mu Ning's father owed, amounting to hundreds of thousands, had been paid off by Zhuang, and that even the visits of Mu Ning's impoverished relatives from the mountainous region had been arranged by Zhuang. Mu Ning's university tuition and the graduate school admission she had received were all arranged by Zhuang. She had already gotten enough!
A mournful roar was heard from the room, followed by a "bang" sound. Xuanxuan was startled and secretly looked into the room. It was really Young Master Zhuang who fell off the bed.
He was trying his best to stand up, but he was like a cripple, unable to stand. He let out a mournful whine, let go of the wooden mallet that was beating him, and beat his legs hard. He hated his legs for not being able to stand up, and he even wanted to chop them off with a knife.
Xuanxuan covered her mouth and cried silently as she watched the young master who was mutilating himself.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you, I'm sorry, I will treat you better in the future, I will treat you better than Dasha, I'm sorry..."
Xuanxuan couldn't bear to watch Young Master Zhuang's crazy behavior anymore, so she ran downstairs quickly.
Auntie looked at Xuanxuan coldly from downstairs, "Hey, aren't you trying to please the young master anymore? Weren't you singing just now?"
"The eldest young master is hitting his legs. You should go and have a look at him quickly. I can't stop him. If you go too late, I'm afraid his legs will be broken..." Xuanxuan said with red eyes.
When the aunt heard this, she was shocked and hurried upstairs, "I'll go check it out right away."
This is also...
Anyone with a bit of status is proud and doesn't want anyone, including their closest relatives, to see their plight. How could Xuanxuan not understand this? So she ran away, not wanting to become the "hatred" of the young master.
When the aunt went upstairs, she was hit on the head with a hammer by Zhuang Shiyuan, and she screamed in pain.
However, after Master Zhuang had vented his anger, he gradually calmed down. Xuanxuan appeared at the right time, stepped forward as Auntie, and knelt before the Master with a plop.
