Nan Hua looked at Nan Shu Cheng's departing back but simply curtsied as her reply. She then walked with her servants towards her own quarter.

Behind her, Xiao Yun and Mu Yan were both worried. They couldn't see Nan Hua's expression, but hearing her words from just now, they really wanted to know whether Nan Hua was fine or not.

After all, such words seemed to be implying that she was not accepted in this residence.

It was filled with desolation and helplessness.

The two of them didn't wish for their miss to feel bad for what Nan Shu Cheng had done and wished that they could do something for her.

Bang!

"B*tch!" At this time, Nan Xin rushed out. Her face was bandaged heavily and there were many parts on her hand and legs that were also bandaged. Her reputation and face were ruined and it was all because of this girl in front of her.

"How dare you come back at this time?" Nan Xin shouted in anger.

Nan Hua looked at her second sister and her face revealed nothing but indifference and calm. At this moment, she looked like an ice queen that couldn't be approached by anyone due to her cold nature.

"I stayed here, did I not?" Nan Hua asked back, her eyes were staring straight at Nan Xin.

"You…"

"Nan Xin! Stop it!" Concubine Mei had rushed out to follow her daughter and restrained her before she could say anything else. Right now, she was so tired because this was the first time she felt so devastated.

In the past, no matter how bad it was, there has always been something for her to rely on. She believed that her daughter would definitely have a better fate compared to her who could only stay in this place.

But now, she realized that it was nothing more than a pipe dream.

With her daughter in this condition, Concubine Mei felt that her hopes were all dashed out. It was impossible for her to not feel dejection, but she would never let her daughter dig the hole further.

If the hole was too deep, how could she help to fill it in?

It would be hopeless.

"But it's all because of this b*tch! If not because of her, I'll not in be in this situation!" Nan Xin yelled in indignation. She was going crazy when she saw her face in the mirror and nearly screamed because she was terrified.

Would her face even recover after being scarred so badly like this?

"Nan Xin, stop it!" Concubine Mei pursed her lips. "Don't say anything more."

Looking at the two of them who didn't have any intention to clarify the matter, Xiao Yun was boiling with rage. These two were really shameless to want to pin the blame to Nan Hua like this.

"Is it my fault that you bring harmful substance and being kicked out of the palace?" Nan Hua asked in an unhurried voice. She didn't really like to take things into her own hands and speaking so much was a hassle. But it would be better for this matter to settle quickly. "I'm sure the other ladies all have seen what happened very clearly and know that I didn't do anything."

"You b*tch! That's supposed to be yours!" Nan Xin tried to struggle away from her mother to claw on Nan Hua.

Nan Hua watched Nan Xin. "If you would like the investigators to truly investigate who buy the harmful substance, you can bring them here."

It would be the same as digging her own grave.

Nan Xin also realized that it would be impossible for her to drag Nan Hua down with her. She screamed as she held her head while the servants helped Concubine Mei to drag her daughter away from here.

Concubine Mei was so distressed that she looked at Nan Hua unkindly. "First Young Miss Nan, why do you have to harm my daughter so?"

"Did I harm her or she harmed herself?" Nan Hua looked at Concubine Mei. "I have no reason to bother with her."

No reason to bother.

At this moment, Concubine Mei couldn't do anything but watch as Nan Hua walked away. She was unwilling, but she knew that it would be hard for her to even win in terms of talking with this young lady. When the situation really needed for it, Nan Hua could debate with anyone who wanted to without losing in the slightest bit.

All that she needed to do was to twist her language a bit.

Concubine Mei then turned around and tried to pacify her daughter. There was really nothing else that she could do.

Thus, the entire residence was filled with Nan Xin throwing tantrum.

It was so loud that Xiao Yun was feeling so annoyed.

"She's the one who dug her own grave, but now she's acting as if the entire world had wronged her," Xiao Yun muttered under her breath.

Mu Yan, who was washing the dishes, paused for a moment. She chuckled. "Being self-righteous has always been her strong point, right? It's part of human nature to want to find something to blame and for these kind of people, it's always easier to put the blame in other people."

"She's so infuriating."

Both Xiao Yun and Mu Yan were discussing in low voice as they finished their duties. They were also being careful to make sure that there was no one around them when they talked.

After all, being found talking about the young misses was not really a good thing.

They could be punished harshly.

Chu Yue came over at this time. She was the only one among the four young ladies who carried a sword with her all the time. After all, she wanted to be Nan Hua's guard too. And with her carrying sword around, it would reduce the number of people who dared to mess around when Nan Hua was not in the residence.

"Chu Yue, you have to be more careful. They might be crazy and sent some people to disturb Miss."
