Chapter 291: Helping Out
Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation
Qu Lin, who was chatting happily with Yin Xun a moment ago, turned to look at Qu Lu. Her expression instantly changed to one of disdain. Her face was filled with impatience.
Qu Lu looked very afraid of Qu Lin. She explained weakly, “No, it’s not that. I just haven’t had the chance to say it yet. ‘
The relationship between the two sisters was a bit unusual. Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. Something was wrong—from the looks of it, their relationship seemed to be worse than hers and Yin MOs.
“Then tell me. Didn’t I give you a chance?’ Qu Lin urged impatiently.
“I, ?? Qu Lu looked very nervous. She could not utter a complete sentence for a long time, which made Qu Lin even more impatient.
She flashed a disgusted expression and said, “Qu Lu, why are you pretending to be a pitiful white flower in front of me? Do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are?’
“No, that’s not it. I’m sorry, Younger Sister. I must have misunderstood Miss Yin…” Qu Lu lowered her head. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and it was hard to hear her clearly from afar.
Qu Lin said impatiently, “Qu Lu, it doesn’t matter if it’s a misunderstanding or not. I’m asking you to explain everything clearly. If she bullied you, tell me how she bullied you. If she didn’t, apologize to Sister Yin Xun. Don’t pretend to be innocent and cause others to gossip! ”
Qu Lin’s behavior was too aggressive. The short-haired girl could not stand it anymore and stood up for Qu Lu. “Linlin, aren’t you being too fierce to Lulu? She’s your sister. Can’t you be more patient with her?”
At this moment, the long-haired girl returned too. She stood beside Qu Lu and looked at them without saying a word.
Qu Lin sneered and glanced at the short-haired woman. “Ding Shan, make yourself clear. When did I bully her? If you’re maligning someone, you have to ask for evidence. I was just asking when she was bullied. Is there a problem with that? Are you in such a hurry to accuse me? No wonder you’re good friends. You’re all the same type. Whatever happens, you’re bad-mouthing someone.”
“I wasn’t! Yin Xun was the one who bullied Qu Lu first!’ Ding Shan explained righteously.
“That’s why I asked you to tell me the reason. How did she bully her? When? Why?’ Qu Lin asked a series of questions in one breath, and they were all within reason.
“If you can’t tell me the reason, why don’t we go to Auntie and discuss it with her? Let her know how you treat the guests she invites. And you…” Qu Lin looked at Qu Lu and said, “Don’t forget that you have always acted as a gentle and sensible person in front of others. If Auntie finds out that you went out of your way to bully her guests, what do you think she will think of you?”
Qu Lin’s words instantly took effect. Qu Lu quickly explained, “No, no, you don’t have to say anymore, Lil Shan. Miss Yin did not do that on purpose. She must have her own difficulties…”
When Ding Shan saw that Qu Lu had been so frightened by Qu Lin, she felt even more indignant.
“That girl is fighting with your sister for Young Master Fang! Everyone in our circle knows that your two families want the two of them to be together. When they were young, they were already arranged to get married. But now, this girl’s pestering Young Master Fang all day long, and she kept doing it even after she found out about Young Master Fang and Lulu’s relationship. She’s trying to be his mistress, isn’t she?’ Ding Shan looked at Yin Xun with disgust in her eyes.
When she thought of what had happened to her in the past and how she had to fight for the family assets with her illegitimate stepbrother, and how her mother had fallen sick from anger because of her illegitimate son, she clenched her fists tightly. It was all because of that shameless mistress. She wished she could kill all the mistresses in the world.
Hearing Ding Shan’s words, Qu Lin was amused. She smiled and asked, “Hehe, Ding Shan, did you ask Fang Yao for his opinion?’
‘What?” Ding Shan was confused.
Qu Lin said, “Firstly, Qu Lu and Fang Yao are not engaged. Secondly, they are not even in a relationship. He is currently single. Why can’t he be close to other girls? Is there a problem? Is it because of Qu Lin’s wishful thinking that Fang Yao has to keep his chastity?’
“This…” Qu Lin’s words did not seem wrong. Fang Yao had never personally said that he was dating Qu Lu, so she could not refute Qu Lin’s words.
However, there was still one thing. People born in these families could not control their marriage anyway.
It was useless for Fang Yao to like someone else. The family would only care about whether his partner would be useful to the family. Therefore, even if Fang Yao liked Yin Xun, there was no hope for them. Qu Lu had already been approved by the parents of both parties, so she was a decent partner. This had nothing to do with Fang Yao’s preferences.
However, Qu Lu and Fang Yao were not married yet, and they might not have any feelings for each other. It seemed like Yin Xun should not be considered a mistress, in this case..
