"No... It has nothing to do with Yuesheng, it’s all... all my fault. I shouldn’t have shown up at this time. Please don’t punish Yuesheng for my sake; it could affect the brotherly bond between you..." So enduring, so selfless, it moved Xiao Hong deeply. "Miss Bai, why won’t you tell the truth even now? Clearly, it was Yuesheng who harbored lustful intentions and even injured you like that. How can you still be considering his feelings?" "Xiao Hong, stop it." Bai Xiangxiang gave her a stern look, "Master Pei must not ignore the bonds of brotherhood over a woman. That would dishearten his followers. As for me, it’s nothing serious anyway..." With those words, if Pei Qinghan didn’t deal with Yuesheng, wouldn’t that be ignoring the difference between right and wrong? Every sentence was a trap. Pei Qinghan’s gaze drifted indifferently across her face, then landed on Yuesheng: "Yuesheng, you speak." Yuesheng glared furiously at Bai Xiangxiang, causing her to tremble in fear, looking utterly pitiful. Yuesheng looked straight into Pei Qinghan’s eyes and declared firmly, "It was this woman who ran out by herself. While making false accusations against me, she started tearing at her clothes. I’m utterly baffled; I’m not even handsome. Why would she spurn Brother Han’s kindness to entice a brutish man like me, huh..." Xiao Hong, enraged, jumped up to point and cursed at him: "You’re lying, I saw it all with my own eyes - it was you who harbored lustful intentions, you attempted to force yourself on Miss Bai, and now you’re flipping the story to slander her. How can there be such a shameless man in this world?" Yuesheng glared at her fiercely, and Xiao Hong shuddered in fright, her vigor greatly diminished. Bai Xiangxiang shook her head at Xiao Hong: "Xiao Hong, stop talking, the innocent have nothing to fear." She turned her head to look at Pei Qinghan: "Qinghan, I’m sorry to trouble you, I... it’s all my fault this time..." So pitiful and forbearing. As she spoke, she fainted. Being closest to Pei Qinghan, she collapsed to the floor, yet Pei Qinghan didn’t rush forward to help. "Thud," her head hit the floor, and it sounded painful. Xiao Hong hurried over to help Bai Xiangxiang up and cast a reproachful glance at Pei Qinghan. Pei Qinghan glanced at Ah Ling: "Please call a doctor to check on her." Ah Ling and Xiao Hong supported the fainted Bai Xiangxiang as they left. Pei Qinghan looked at Yuesheng, who pursed his lips, "Brother Han, you won’t believe that little bitch’s words over mine, will you?" "Yuesheng, how many years have you been with me?" Pei Qinghan suddenly asked. Yuesheng started counting on his fingers, his foolish manner making Fu Bai struggle not to laugh. Finally, he said, "Eighteen years." Pei Qinghan nodded slightly: "If I can’t understand someone after eighteen years, then it’s time to change the boss." With that, he turned and walked away. Yuesheng frowned at Fu Bai: "What does Brother Han mean by that?" Fu Bai rolled his eyes: "It looks like I’ll have to start calling you a dumb bear from now on. You really are an idiot. The boss is clearly covering for you." Yuesheng swung a punch at him: "Keep your damn mouth clean, I’m being framed." Fu Bai deftly dodged the blow: "You think someone would go to all that trouble to frame you for no good reason? But you, you dumb bear, now that’s suspicious. Tell me, did you actually fall for the young lady’s beauty? You’ve got some nerve; she is the boss’s woman..." Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn noⅴelfire.net "I’ve already said I’m being framed. Even if she were a peerless beauty, I wouldn’t like her." "Then who do you like?" "I like..." Yuesheng choked and then suddenly shouted angrily: "Are you courting death..." "Sister Ah Ling, Miss Bai is so pitiful. Even now, Master Pei still sides with Yuesheng, it’s infuriating. How is Miss Bai supposed to face others in the future?" Xiao Hong couldn’t help but complain as they left the room. Ah Ling glared at her: "Shut up. You were the most excited just now. What you see with your eyes isn’t necessarily the truth. You might end up counting money for your own betrayal; no wonder you can’t stay in a wealthy family. You’ll be played to death sooner or later with that attitude." Despite Bai Xiangxiang having some scheming abilities, she was still too naive. In front of these cunning people, she was merely playing house - ludicrous. To say Yuesheng wanted to force himself on her was the joke of the century. Fu Bai might have been believable, but Yuesheng? It was clear self-sabotage. Anyone who knew Yuesheng understood that he was loyal to no one but Master Pei. It wasn’t like no women tried to get close to him; there were plenty more beautiful than Bai Xiangxiang, all of whom Yuesheng sent packing with broken wrists and ankles. His loyalty to Master Pei was foolhardy, almost like Zhang Fei’s to Liu Bei, unswervingly devoted. The idea that he would assault Master Pei’s woman was utterly implausible.
