Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter

Then, she waved her sleeves over her head and rushed up to a tree beside her, slamming into it.

She had no defense and could only insist that they were ruining her reputation. It was a fact that she had not entered Sima Lingyunʼs room. A maid and a pouch would not be able to determine her sins. She did not believe that those people would force her to her death. She had already looked at them and saw that there was no true nobility amongst the men. Most of them were children of officials and their fathersʼ ranks were not high either. They were not from the same social circle as her. They were also impolite and did not speak like true nobility.

She was betting that they would not force her.

She only had to force them to let her go...

”Miss, Mi...” Mo Jin and Shuang Ye grew anxious when they saw that she was going to kill herself. They tried to stop her and put themselves in front of her. They were worried that she might really kill herself.

The group of people also grew flustered. Catching the adulterous pair was one matter. But if they forced the daughter of a Fifth Rank Capital Officer to death, then the matter would be huge!

Most of the people present were from wealthy families and some of them were sons of lower ranked officials. They were all well informed and knew that the Mo Manor was close to the Emperor. If they really offend the Mo Manor, they might implicate their whole family. No one wanted that to happen to them.

”Brother He, could we be mistaken? There isnʼt a name on the pouch.” A man holding the pouch pushed it into Brother Lingʼs hand hurriedly. He intentionally ignored the ”Min” on the pouch.

”It is not impolite to ask about His Excellency at the corridor.”

”That maid doesnʼt look like a good one. She might be the one in a tryst with the dukeʼs son!”

”That must be it. Look at how she looks, sheʼs not a good one.” Everyone spoke up to ease the tension.

Brother He and Brother Ling were flustered at that. They glanced at each other and did not dare to insist that the pouch belonged to Mo Xuemin. They had stolen it and if the matter was investigated, they would not be able to bear the consequences. The thiefʼs mouth was hard to shut.

The two of them glanced at each other and immediately stopped pursuing the incident. Their attitudes softened.

”Oh, that might be true.” Brother He said in an odd tone.

”Miss Mo, since it is something your maid did, then you should discipline her well in the future. Donʼt let her come out and flirt. Those who donʼt know will think that it is you...” Brother Ling waved his hand and sniggered. The pouch flew out and landed on the floor. Mo Jin hurried to pick it up.

His words were very disrespectful and Mo Xuemin was so angry that she trembled in rage.

Shuang Ye was anxious when she saw that everyone had gone. She thought of how First Miss had always been a vicious person in private and knelt down forcefully. She called out anxiously, ”Miss...”

”Shut up. Iʼll deal with you when we go back.” Mo Xueminʼs face was pale as if she had survived a great disaster. Her clothes were soaked in sweat. She yelled sharply when she saw that Shuang Ye was about to say something else. Then, she turned around, squared her back, and left the courtyard with Mo Jin. She must not show any signs of guilt right now.

Shuang Ye must be defending herself right now, so how could she allow her to finish speaking. She would not be responsible for this mess.

The furore had created a huge ruckus and someone was already at the door.

When she saw the sharp and furious expression on Mo Xueminʼs beautiful face, Shuang Ye did not dare to say anything else. She stood up and followed behind Mo Xuemin fearfully and left the courtyard.

When they returned to their courtyard, Mo Xuetong was standing at the corridor. She said with a gentle and concerned smile, ”Eldest Sister, what happened?”

”Nothing. Iʼm going home now.” Mo Xuemin gritted her teeth. She wanted to tear the smile off Mo Xuetongʼs face. The smile seemed to be mocking her failure. She could not stay any longer. She felt that Mo Xuetong was behind all of this!

”Then letʼs go back together. Mo Lan, quick go and pack up.” Mo Xuetong turned to say.

”Yes, Miss.” I thought that the manor would send someone to pick you up. So Mo Yu and I have already packed up.” Mo Lan replied.

”Eldest Sister, then letʼs go.” Mo Xuetong said, holding on to Mo Yeʼs hand. Her face was pale. Mo Yu was holding Mo Xuetongʼs other hand so she could stand steadily.
