Wang Xixuan’s wrinkled brow did not relax one bit when he heard that.
He sighed, Yun Er, why were you so stubborn? You made the same mistake again.
If he himself had fallen for it once, would he fall for it a second time?
Of course he would be on alert.
Furthermore, Dongfang Ming might not plan to go into government but he managed his own business really well. He obviously had a sharp mind.
As the brother-in-law to the current emperor, there was basically nothing he had not seen.
He had fallen for Wang Xiangyun’s trick two years ago purely because he had trusted her!
“Go on!” he exclaimed, restraining his anger.
“It’s all my fault. I couldn’t stop her.”
Head hanging low, Little Tian was overwhelmed with tears. “Miss Wang wanted to gain Master Dongfang’s trust, so she drank the tea she had previously spiked, but Master Dongfang did not drink it… Later, we found her in an alley, but by then s-she…” Little Tian’s voice started to tremble.
Even though she could not go on, based on her trembling voice and the sobs she had been holding back, Wang Xixuan could guess the ending of her tale.
He balled his fists, so much so that the veins became visible.
His handsome face had turned dark and twisted as he gritted his teeth. “Where are those punks now?”
“I’ve personally cleaned out their dirtiest parts, and now they’re in the dungeon.”
Even if they had to return to the capital, Little Tian had not released those three punks. Instead, she transported them to the capital as well without telling Wang Xiangyun.
She could pay the three of them a timely visit every day.
“Watch them closely, make sure they don’t die!” Wang Xixuan squinted his eyes, looking ever so ruthless.
Little Tian nodded.
Even if the young master had not instructed her to, she would supervise the three punks as though her life depended on it!
Once he found out everything, Wang Xixuan believed his precious little sister was actually more stubborn than he had previously thought!
She had received an education since she was young, much like other boys her age. How could she be so foolish to have done something like that?
Now that she had lost her dignity as a woman, how could she find a husband in the future?
Had the books never taught her that what goes around comes around?
All that schooling for nothing!
He was both frustrated and furious with Wang Xiangyun.
“Later, when she feels better, heat up the porridge and bring it to her,” Wang Xixuan instructed Little Tian, still frowning. “I’m going out for a bit. I’ll check on her later.”
Then he got up and headed downstairs.
Little Tian wiped away her tears hanging by the corners of her eyes, composing herself before taking the glutinous porridge to the kitchen.
Wang Xixuan exited Mingyun Building, unable to hide his agony.
He sank into thought for a while and then headed elsewhere.
Standing in front of the window, Dongfang Ming incidentally noticed Wang Xixuan looking in his direction but hesitating as to whether to make a move.
“Ming Yan, please head downstairs to check. Perhaps Brother Wang has business to discuss with me. Bring him up here,” he said to the guard beside him.
No matter what, Dongfang Ming had a bad feeling about Wang Xixuan’s hesitation. It must be a bad omen.
Ming Yan left and went downstairs.
Standing tall and fully armored, Ming Yan quickly appeared before Wang Xixuan and greeted the man respectfully. “Master Wang, my master invites you upstairs.”
Wang Xixuan, who had been hesitating, braced himself and followed Ming Yan upstairs.
