Xie Jingrong thought for a while and said, "Sorry for the trouble, Mrs. Shao. I will watch out in case there is any trouble coming for you due to this."
Qiao Xuan felt relieved hearing what Xie Jingrong said. She was sure that he would definitely keep his promise. Hence, she was not going to worry.
"Thanks for your help, Young Master Xie! "
"That is what I should do!"
Xie Jingrong and Qiao Xuan would not have thought about this otherwise, but
Yuezheng Ting was a little too dangerous…
She tried setting up Qiao Xuan right in front of her, and she might do something even worse in secret.
The two of them did not go on the same path because they did not want to cause any rumor between them.
They waved goodbye to each other at the feet of the mountain.
It was getting late, and Qiao Xuan went home with Lixia and Liqiu in town.
Xie Jingrong headed towards the gathering.
Xie Dong presented the fan to him. "Young Master Xie, this fan…"
Xie Jingrong frowned slightly. "Keep it with you, and put it away once we are home! "
He did not want to touch it. He felt quite distressed to have wasted his excellent work.
Xie Dong was annoyed too. "Okay, Young Master, 1 will definitely put it away and leave it out of your sight. What a pity!'
Xie Jingrong felt that his words were funny.
Xie Dong added. "We were lucky that Mrs. Shao was here, otherwise…"
Xie Dong felt both disgusted and scared. He understood clearly what Yuezheng Tings plan was, seeing how she liked his Young Master and the farmers' timely appearance.
But for Mrs. Shao, his Young Master would have been in trouble. They would have been able to deal with her in the end, but it would have taken far more effort.
Xie Jingrongs eyes sparkled. He answered. "Yeah, very lucky indeed."
Xie Dong said emotionally, "Thanks to Mrs. Shao!"
Xie Jingrong didn't reply to him.
He did not think that her appearance was pure luck. He even felt that Qiao Xuan appeared intentionally to help him. But he could not find an explanation for this thought.
Anyways, Mrs. Shao was very interesting.
Xie Jingrong was not in a mood to attend the gathering, but thinking that Shao Yunduan was still there, he should visit there anyway. He was not a friend to Shao Yunduan on the surface, but Qiao Xuan helped him and he could help Shao Yunduan on the sly, in case he was being bullied. So, he went to the gathering, after all.
It was not until evening when the gathering finished. The scholars and talents waved goodbye to each other and left.
But, in the second section of the Yuezheng Family, it was total chaos.
Yuezheng Ting was crying when she returned home and she could not stop doing so in front of her mother.
The episode was too embarrassing and hurtful for her. She had never experienced such shame as on this day.
She lost her face in front of the man she adored, and it felt as if heaven had fallen down.
Ms. Mi Junior was shocked to see her daughter crying in an abandoned manner. She consoled her for a long while before she was able to stop herself.
After a long while, she stopped crying and started to talk.
Yuezheng Ting did not tell her the truth.
She did not even dare comment on Xie Jingrong. She simply blamed everything on Qiao Xuan.
She said that she ran into Xie Jingrong and was in the middle of conversation with him when Qiao Xuan suddenly popped up and accused her of flirting with
