The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 162: Forgivable

Pei Wanyue was dumbstruck from the shock. Ever since she had stepped into the Xie Residence, if she must say who showed her the slightest kindness… Apart from Uncle Xie, it would be Xie Pinghuai.

However, he wanted to hit her because of that!?

“How is it my fault that someone used the jade to apply for discipleship? Can it be that Brother heard something from Eldest Sister? Al-Although I didn’t come from a respectable family, I learned courtesy at the Pei Residence. Now, Brother is accusing me of stealing. I can no longer live in this house!” Pei Wanyue cried immediately.

The thing that Xie Niushan was most afraid of was women crying.

His head exploded upon hearing the sobbing.

“What’s the use of crying? If he hits you, shouldn’t you just hit him back? This is a small matter. You should learn from Qiao’er. When she taught this brat a lesson, she was merciless.” Xie Niushan scratched his head. “Stop crying. See, he doesn’t have proof. I didn’t say that it was you who took it.”

Xie Pinghuai got up after being tossed three steps away.

He was irritated watching Pei Wanyue cry.

His eldest sister was weak too, but she hardly cried. Even if she looked like she was crying, she would look more likable than Pei Wanyue!

Moreover, although he found his eldest sister annoying, at least she did not do anything sneakily.

But look at Pei Wanyue!

Xie Qiao bumped into her eldest brother when she was on her way home.

They both entered the house together and saw the tense scene.

Xie Qiao knew what was happening, so she sighed. Xie Pinggang frowned in confusion. He walked over, glancing at Xie Pinghuai and Pei Wanyue. He did not scold immediately. He was just watching from the side.

“Eldest Sister, it’s great that you’re here. Tell Father, did you see my jade today!?” Xie Pinghuai was furious. He was unclear in his description.

Xie Qiao nodded. “That’s right, Father. The jade that the Crown Prince gave is slightly different from the rest. It was indeed the piece of jade that I won.”

Xie Niushan was surprised. “What does this have anything to do with Pei Wanyue?”

“That person who applied for discipleship was worried that people would suspect that he obtained the jade in a filthy way after learning how unique it was. He told the truth, saying that a Young Lady Pei from Gulan Academy gifted the jade. Her goal was to exchange a recommendation at the Royal Academy.” Xie Qiao said, “I didn’t ask about it. It was Teacher Xiao who found out. Teacher Xiao only told the Crown Prince, worried that he would be upset.”

Xie Niushan was dumbstruck. He turned his head and looked at Pei Wanyue in disbelief.

Xie Pinggang frowned hard, looking upset.

Xie Pinghuai nodded. “He asked me to give it to her before, but I didn’t. I can’t believe she stole it!

“Eldest Brother, it’s my fault. From now on, I’ll carry important items with me at all times. I won’t lose anything now…” Xie Pinghuai’s tone suddenly changed as he said that out of nowhere. He said that very carefully and humbly.

Xie Pinggang got goosebumps as soon as he heard that.

That was not his brother.

How was it possible that he admitted his fault out of nowhere? Something was wrong…

Xie Pinggang glanced at Xie Qiao. Seeing that her expression was tense, he figured it must be her who had taught Xie Pinghuai that. However, that fool was not sincere enough in his apology. He thought that was enough for him to forgive him?

Pei Wanyue’s face was pale at the moment.

Ms. Lu came after hearing the commotion, and Pei Wanyue threw herself at her directly. “Mother!”

Ms. Lu trembled. “What’s happening…”

“Wanyue stole the jade,” said Xie Niushan.

Ms. Lu staggered. She did not expect it to be exposed so soon. She panicked as she said immediately, “Yue’er is still young. Sh-She’s just too envious of the first one. They’re both young ladies at home, and they’re about the same age. One goes to the Royal Academy, while the other can only go to Gulan Academy. It’s forgivable that she’s upset…”
