The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny - Chapter 160

Chapter 160: Unreasonable

Fire was burning in Xie Pinghuai’s eyes. He was livid!

He knew that a family member had definitely stolen his jade. However, no matter how he pondered over it, he could only think of those suspicious servants!

He had never really thought that it was Pei Wanyue!

The person that he called Second Sister had shamelessly stolen her brother’s thing!? She had said nothing and watched him being beaten!?

Xie Pinghuai was not only furious. He felt disappointed!

Now that he was furious, even a fool could tell that the jade that the Xie family had lost was extraordinary. Xie Qiao held her head down slightly while scratching her nose. She pretended not to see her foolish brother who was next to her.

Seeing that Xie Pinghuai was angry, Zhao Xuanjing figured that chaos would soon ensue at the Xie Residence.

Unfortunately, he would not be able to watch. He felt rather disappointed.

Zhao Xuanjing thought he should not get Xie Pinghuai to stay upon seeing how furious he was. He said while smiling, “You’re young and mad. It’d be bad if you hurt yourself from your fury. There’s nothing more from my side. Please return, Second Young Master Xie.”

Xie Pinghuai nodded immediately.

That was right. He did not want to stay. He wanted to go home…

He wanted to get the steward to get someone from the Gulan Academy!

Xie Qiao doubtfully glanced at Zhao Xuanjing. She suspected that the Crown Prince had said that as he had heard about Xie Pinghuai visiting the brothel. However, Xie Pinghuai failed to understand the underlying meaning!

That fool!

Xie Pinghuai was direct, whereby he turned around and took two steps out. He turned his head and walked over, immediately realizing that Xie Qiao was still standing there. He dragged her sleeve and walked away.

The corner of Zhao Xuanjing’s lips twitched.

He wanted to talk to Half-Immortal Xie about his courtyard…

It did not take Xie Pinghuai long to drag Xie Qiao out of the academy.

“Eldest Sister, you must fight for me! I’ve been wronged big time. Being beaten up by Eldest Brother aside, I embarrassed myself by kneeling at Teacher Xiao’s courtyard. He even punished me to a copy a book!”

“I advise you not to put the blame on someone else entirely,” Xie Qiao said while smiling.

“But it’s Pei Wanyue’s fault, is it not!?” Xie Pinghuai was furious.

“That’s the truth, but I’d advise you to behave before Eldest Brother, or you’ll be hit again.” Xie Qiao thought this kid was too foolish, to which she added, “You lost it in your courtyard, right? You’re a man, and she’s a lady. The jade was still around before we went to sleep, and it was gone in the morning. Firstly, you shouldn’t tell that to outsiders. Secondly, you’re already mature, but you can’t even guard your own courtyard. You lowered your guard when you slept, allowing a helpless young lady to steal your thing…”

Xie Pinghuai felt a chill when he listened until this point.

That was right…

Why had he not thought of that!?

His eldest brother was unreasonable. Even if he thought Pei Wanyue was at fault, he would blame Xie Pinghuai as well. After all… his eldest brother was especially fierce when it came to him!

Xie Pinghuai suddenly thought his eldest sister knew too much. He looked at Xie Qiao immediately as if he was begging for help. “Eldest Sister, what do I do? Eldest Brother won’t hit me if I admit my fault, right?”

“I’m not a worm in Eldest Brother’s tummy. You’ll have to think about how to apologize to him. I’ve brought you the dishes. Do you want me to feed you as well?” Xie Qiao rolled her eyes at him.

‘He doesn’t know how to use his brain? Then why would he need it?’

Xie Pinghuai made a grunting noise.

That was how he had been living his life. He had never used his brain…

Xie Pinghuai got home immediately and yelled to get Yuan Rong over as soon as he arrived. “Go to Gulan Academy and get Pei Wanyue home for me!”
