Chapter 806: Trust You (1)
Upon hearing these words, Xun Hui became a bit agitated, but before she could open her mouth, Erni suddenly slapped her purse down onto the table, "Yang Ruyu, are you trying to slander my eldest sister?"
"I..." Yang Ruyu immediately looked at Xun Hui with a wronged expression, "I..."
"Despite all that’s happened, my eldest sister still brought you to the county town to see the world, without holding any grudges against you. Instead of defending her, you are actually ruining her reputation everywhere. What are you thinking?" Erni didn’t wait for her to respond and continued, "Do you actually wish for my eldest sister to have a bad reputation? Let me tell you, if any bad rumors about my eldest sister spread, I...we will come to you to settle the score..."
In the past, Erni had always felt inferior in front of Yang Ruyu. Whenever she saw her eldest sister or Sanni confront her, she was quite envious, thinking she could never do the same.
But in this moment, without her eldest sister or Sanni present, she felt that if she didn’t defend her eldest sister, she wouldn’t be human. She was sure that if Brother Er knew, he would be disappointed in her.
Before Brother Er left, he had said that he liked her confident self and hoped that she wouldn’t shrink away from challenges. Now, by not backing down, was she being confident enough?
Her eldest sister had said that confidence means fearing no one, and although she used to feel ashamed in front of Yang Ruyu, now... she suddenly discovered that speaking her mind actually felt really good.
They say girls are extroverted, and Erni is the perfect example of extroversion.
Yang Ruyu, rendered speechless by the confrontation, felt even more wronged. Her eyes reddened, and tears began to fall, "Xuexue, how can you speak to me like this? If I wanted to ruin our eldest sister’s reputation, I wouldn’t have come here to talk about it. I’m just afraid of what would happen if someone else saw us. I truly mean no harm..."
"Xuexue," Xun Hui felt that Erni was being too intense, "Perhaps Yuyu really had good intentions..."
Although Erni’s disposition had changed, her eloquence couldn’t improve overnight. Having said so much in one breath was already her limit, and now she was a bit at a loss for words.
