Wu Wei’an shivered, seemingly too cold to speak.

Even the gaze he looked at her with, has an ice blade in it: “Third, Third Miss, I, am, fine.”

Ji Yunxi apologized to him: “I am sorry. It’s all because I arrived late.”

She said to Second Wu: “Second Young Master, take your brother and follow Baofu to change his clothes first. The matter here, just leave it to me.”

Second Wu thanked her and helped Wu Wei’an away.

Ji Yunxi clapped her hands and got up.

But Wei Fan is not afraid either. He only stood aside just now and watched it before finally sighing: “Third Miss, if Brother Mingshuang sees you like this, I am afraid he will be sad again. I have always had a good relationship with Brother Mingshuang so I also treat you as my own younger sister. Seeing you like this makes me feel angry too.”

Ji Yunxi frowned slightly: “Listening to your words, it seems that you know my Seventh Brother very well?”

Wei Fan: “That’s a matter of course.”

Ji Yunxi looked at him: “My Seventh Brother even let you bully people?”

Wei Fan laughed: “How can this be said as bullying? We just saw the Young Master of the Wu family accidentally fall into the water and only wanted to help pull him up.”

The second generation ancestors who followed him all laughed: “That’s right. Brother Wei, how is it that in this world, people who do good deeds don’t get any reward, but be wronged instead?”

Ji Yunxi nodded without any anger, and turned her head to whisper a few words to Wan Xiang.

Afterward, everyone saw that in the next instant, the people in Wei Fan’s group were thrown into the pond by Ji Yunxi’s maidservant who has high martial arts.

They happened to be thrown to the same spot with where the eldest son of the Wu family fell before.

After several plopping sounds, the place that was dug out was crowded with people and became like a pool of dumplings dropped down into the ground.

Wei Fan was stunned for a few seconds. He never expected at all that Ji Yunxi would do so.

He flopped, madly furious and cursed: “Ji Yunxi, you are sick!”

Ji Yunxi stood on top and waited for a while before slowly saying words in her elegant voice, without any cadence at all: “Oh, isn’t this Young Master Wei? Why did you fall into the water? Wan Xiang, hurry up. Go and help pull him up.”

Wanxiang was standing in front of Wei Fan’s servants. After hearing Ji Yunxi’s words, she walked back to her master.

But the servants were frightened for a moment and still didn’t dare to move.

Wei Fan felt that he couldn’t hold on anymore and was about to sink into the depths of the pond.

His teeth were trembling: “Are you all dead?! Still not pulling me up?!”

Only then did those slaves were as if waking up from a dream and hurriedly went to fish the dumplings out.

Ji Yunxi stood on the side and said slowly: “My Seventh Brother is a righteous man. Even when others talk to him, he will reply to them with several courtesy words. In the eyes of some people, just because they think they have a close brotherly relationship with my Seventh Brother, they dare to do some sneaky things outside in the name of my Seventh Brother. It’s really extremely ridiculous. I will tell him about this matter today when my Seventh Brother comes back. I hope Young Master Wei can take care of himself well.”

After leaving these words, she just left.

The young masters and young ladies who were eating melons silently looked at her back and talked secretly.

“Although I don’t like this Third Ji, what she said is really right. You must also know about that person who went to greet the Seventh Master not long ago. The Seventh Master replied to her out of courtesy only, but when she came back, she said that the Seventh Master must like her! It’s really, extremely, ridiculous!

“If we have to say it like that, then last year when the Seventh Master picked up my handkerchief and returned it to me, doesn’t that mean the Seventh Master will marry me in the future?”

“Maybe some people just don’t have self-knowledge.”

“……”



Wu Wei’an and Second Wu both changed into clean clothes and got into the Ji family’s carriage.

It stands to reason that Ji Yunxi is a young lady who has not been out of the boudoir, so doing so is unreasonable and is not conducive to her good reputation as a girl.
