Miss Truth

Xiao Xuanzhi furrowed his brows slightly. However, what Xiao Shuo had said was also the truth: he liked women, but they had to be beauties. He had seen countless women, and even if he wanted to switch to plain congee and veggies, it certainly wouldn’t be with someone like Chun Lai.

Thus, when Xiao Shuo made this statement, most people believed him, and they disdainfully looked at Chun Lai—what a lowly maid wanting to fly up to a branch and become a phoenix!

Ran Yan glanced at Xiao Song, who was expressionless. She didn’t know whether he believed it or not, but she certainly did not. If Chun Lai really just wanted to climb the social ladder, Xiao Xuanzhi’s terms seemed much better than Xiao Shuo’s at any glance. With such a devoted and handsome man right before her eyes, which woman would foolishly run off to fight with another woman for a fickle playboy? Moreover, Chun Lai did not even like Shilang.

Xiao Jing calmed his anger and turned to Chun Lai, asking, "Did you really approach Shuo just to seduce him?"

Chun Lai hung her head, not daring to meet anyone’s gaze, ready to grit her teeth and admit "Yes," but her words were still on her lips when Xiao Xuanzhi cut her off: "No!"

All eyes sharply turned towards Xiao Xuanzhi.

Impulse!

Xiao Song’s gaze flickered slightly, naturally lowering his eyes to hide this fleeting change. When he looked up again, his expression was still as calm as ever. His thoughts raced, and interrupting him, he said, "I advise my younger brother not to let emotions cloud his judgment. Even though Chun Lai has been with you for over ten years, and while she may not have notable merits, she shares a bond of affection with us. But you know well that our Xiao Family always clearly distinguishes rewards and punishments. You are the only legitimate heir of the main branch, so do not ruin your future over a trivial matter."
