Chapter 496 - 185 Not compatible_2
Hua Lei stayed by Yueyao’s side and knew her temperament well; the expression on Yueyao’s face meant that she was angry. Hua Lei panicked and didn’t dare say anything more.
Nanny Hao could only sigh. While things seemed all right before, they were becoming intolerable now. Looking at the young lady’s demeanor, she feared that Yueyao had developed an aversion toward Hua Lei.
After Hua Lei left, she took the opportunity to ask Xi Yu about Xiang Wei’s background. Xi Yu did not know about Xiang Wei’s background and told everything that had happened on the mountain.
Hua Lei seized on the essential point, "Are you saying the young lady indulges Xiang Wei because she was sent by the young lady of the Luo family?" If that was the case, she could be at ease.
Xi Yu nodded, "Yes, that’s it."
Hua Lei’s mind relaxed slightly. However, she was unaware that her every action had fallen under Xiang Wei’s observation, and naturally, Yueyao had come to know of this as well.
Xiang Wei spoke quite directly, "This girl cannot stay." Everyone has their selfish interests, but when personal ambitions surpass loyalty to the master, that person can no longer be used, or else danger will arise.
Yueyao nodded, "Wait for the right opportunity to send her away." Yueyao wanted to find a good place for Hua Lei and then let her leave, but now was not the time. With Lady Mo lurking and watching like a tiger, it was not safe for Hua Lei to leave.
Xiang Wei said, "As long as you are aware, that’s fine. Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on the people at Lanxi Courtyard for you." With Yueyao’s current situation, the most feared scenario was traitors emerging. Dealing with Lady Mo was simple, but if someone were to leak her secrets, it meant certain defeat.
Yueyao smiled, "You’ll have your work cut out for you."
Xiang Wei chuckled, "Madam, are you planning to stay in Lian Mansion forever?" Since she was aware of the dangers, naturally, she would look for an opportunity to leave.
Yueyao smiled bitterly, "I promised my grandmother that unless it’s absolutely necessary, I cannot leave Lian Mansion." Yueyao knew this was not right, but she was someone who honored her promises. Since she had pledged, she would fulfill it.
