Chapter 135 The Difference Between Nobility and Baseness
The atmosphere immediately became awkward after Peng Yize said that. He noticed everyone was frowning at him, especially Ye Liuli, who looked like she wanted to punch him…
Ye Li, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "Is that the leader of the Dugu Sect?"
Peng Yize felt a surge of panic upon hearing this: "You, you all knew?"
"Cut~!"
Ye Liuli and Ye Li both glared at Peng Yize with disdain, while Xi Yue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was Dugu Juechen; otherwise, who knows what kind of disaster would have occurred...
"How come you..." Peng Yize was puzzled. Why were they so at ease when it was Dugu Juechen who took Liu Ruxuan away?
"Alright, now that Leader Dugu and Ruxuan are together, we don't need to worry anymore. Let's go about our business," Ye Liuli announced. No one objected, and everyone went about their own business.
Liu Ruxuan entered the Liu residence, followed by Dugu Juechen. As soon as she entered the gate, Liu Yancheng came out to greet her.
"Xuan'er, you're back." Liu Yancheng smiled like a loving father, then turned to Dugu Juechen and said with a smile, "Greetings, Master Gong."
Liu Ruxuan didn't take him seriously at all. She hadn't forgotten what kind of house Liu Yancheng had given her and how he had used his power to intimidate her. Since Liu Ruxuan didn't respond, Dugu Juechen naturally wouldn't either.
"I want to see my mother." Liu Ruxuan didn't want to waste words with him.
"Xuan'er, your mother is in the main hall." Liu Yancheng's expression didn't change at all, which Liu Ruxuan found hypocritical.
Upon entering the hall, Lian Yunlan was exchanging polite words with Xu Fang. Xu Fang's clothes were now made of very fine materials, no longer the coarse garments of the past. Liu Ruxuan scoffed inwardly, "Is this the difference between noble and lowly status?"
"Mother." As soon as Liu Ruxuan spoke, Xu Fang and Lian Yunlan stood up at the same time. Xu Fang walked up to Liu Ruxuan, tears welling up in her eyes: "My dear Ruxuan, Mother knows that you will definitely amount to something."
"Yes, Xuan'er, come, come, sit down and talk!" Lian Yunlan had recently heard that Liu Ruxuan was not only the head of Yongren Hall, but also the head of the Pharmacist Association, and the people of the Pharmacist Association protected her in every way, even the Prince of Chu Jin sided with Liu Ruxuan. Now she was a phoenix that had flown to the top of the branch, and even if Lian Yunlan disliked her, she still had to curry favor with her.
"No need. I'm here to take Mother away. Mother, we'll live at the Pharmacist's Association from now on." Liu Ruxuan didn't want Xu Fang to suffer anymore.
Hearing this from the side, Liu Yancheng was terrified. He had just offended Liu Ruxuan a few days ago, and today she was going to take Xu Fang away. If anything happened to the Liu family in the future, they would have no trump cards left. What should they do?
"No!" Liu Yancheng stopped Xu Fang before she could speak. "Xuan'er, I know that your father made your mother suffer before. It was my fault. I will never let your mother suffer any more grievances in the future. Besides, it is not reasonable for you to take your mother away."
Liu Ruxuan frowned, already showing some impatience. Seeing this, Xu Fang quickly smoothed things over: "Yes, Ruxuan, your father is right. Your mother is fine now, so Ruxuan, don't worry."
Seeing that Xu Fang still refused to leave with her, Liu Ruxuan was at a loss for how to persuade her. Dugu Juechen took Liu Ruxuan's hand and said, "Xuan'er, since your aunt is unwilling to leave, let's not make things difficult for her. I believe General Liu will take good care of your aunt."
“Yes, Xuan’er, Master Gong is right,” Liu Yancheng said hurriedly.
When the group saw Dugu Juechen holding Liu Ruxuan's arm, and Liu Ruxuan not resisting, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes.
