The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny - Chapter 181

Chapter 181: Resentment

The Gulan Academy was ranked among the top three academies in the Imperial City. How was it possible that they would accept just anyone?

In order to enroll in the academy, Pei Wanyue had to give a gift. Now that she had left the Gulan Academy herself, she wanted to go back after making a mistake?

They definitely would not want her.

Pei Wanyue bit her lips, her heart bleeding.

How could this happen?

She could not understand it. How was it possible that Xie Qiao had managed to purchase Master Yun Wei’s authentic painting?

Unfortunately, it was too late now. She had to leave as she did not have silver beans!

Now that she had asked shamelessly, not only was nobody willing to help her, but even everyone was looking at her with disdain. Their judgemental eyes were like a knife stabbing her. Her self-esteem was crushed, and she ran out soon.

She returned to her house while crying.

Pei Wanyue was panicking as she looked at the small house.

She had nothing. She could not return to the Xie Residence, and now even the academy did not want her…

It was all caused by Xie Qiao!

After crying for a couple of hours, Pei Wanyue finally failed to hold back and sent someone to get Ms. Lu here. She only had one family member in the Imperial City, her mother. Now that something so big happened, her mother must solve it for her.

Ms. Lu was a little stunned when her daughter called for her. However, it was nowhere near the shock she felt when she learned her daughter had been chased out of the academy,

“Didn’t I ask you not to stir troubles with Xie Qiao? Why didn’t you listen!?”

Ms. Lu was really panicking now!

It was something major!

Pei Wanyue couldn’t study anywhere else now that the Royal Academy had chased her out. It would also be difficult for her to marry into a respectable family in the future!

“Mother, it was Xie Qiao who did this to me! How would I know that the painting was authentic? You saw it too when she showed it the first time. She was careful… Something was clearly wrong… M-Maybe the people at the Royal Academy were siding with her…” Pei Wanyue said stubbornly.

Ms. Lu was eager to slap her.

Nonetheless, she could not bring herself to do it since she was her daughter.

“Why would the Royal Academy side with her!? Y-You made a mistake! You insisted on enrolling in the Royal Academy. You finally made it in, so why couldn’t you just study obediently!? You’ve only been there for two days, and you’re being chased out now. Who would want you to be their wife now!?”

Ms. Lu was regretful. If she knew this would happen, she should not have allowed Pei Wanyue to stir trouble like this!

See, such a thing happened now…

Pei Wanyue was sobbing loudly. “Mother, what do I do now?”

“What do you do…” muttered Ms. Lu. “What else can you do? Your reputation is in the mud now. Don’t even dream of studying from now on. Stay in this courtyard from now on. I’ll introduce you to people when there’s an opportunity.”

“Then…” Pei Wanyue stuttered.

Ms. Lu knew what she wanted to say, to which she replied, “Oh, you. Don’t expect to marry into a wealthy family. I’ve been living in the Imperial City for many years. I can tell that the people in the Imperial City are picky. Who would be willing to marry a lady whose reputation is completely destroyed? Moreover, your family name is Pei.”

Her daughter looked down on the Xie family, but she had never thought that the Pei family was worse than the Xie family!

Pei Wanyue gnashed her teeth.

Ms. Lu sighed.

In reality, Xie Pinggang was a good candidate. Unfortunately, the mere notion of the stepmother’s daughter marrying the stepfather’s son was frowned upon. Classy people would not do such a thing.

Ms. Lu thought about it and said, “Uncle Xie has a few friends who are close to him. I’ll ask him for you.”

Pei Wanyue initially had the intention to marry into a respectable family. Never had she thought she would have to pick an insignificant official family now.

She even lost the eligibility to choose!

She was infuriated.

Pei Wanyue said in a hoarse voice that was filled with resentment, “Uncle Xie is mad at me. How would he sincerely look for a husband for me?”
