Chapter 766: Chapter 766 Reliving a Lifeti
Upon seeing Xuexue, a trace of jealousy flashed in Situtu Qinger’s eyes.
However, she quickly concealed it and, with a smiling face, walked over…
Xuexue’s attire was sowhat different from usual today; she was wearing a pink pleated skirt and had combed her hair into a fashionable hairbun popular among young ladies of the ti, adorned with a jade hairpin that had a small white bead on it. As she moved, the bead swayed gently, and she looked stunningly beautiful.
“Big sister, you’re dressed so beautifully today,” Situtu Qinger said, walking up with a beaming smile.
Xuexue looked at her calmly. This Situtu Qinger had so nerve, lying in wait here so early in the morning just to get into the Imperial Palace.
“Today is the Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet, and I have been invited by The Emperor. I must dress appropriately to not disgrace our General’s Mansion,” Xuexue said, not looking aside, as she walked past her with her maids.
Situtu Qinger watched as Xuexue didn’t stop for a mont and hurried past her.
She was montarily stunned, then quickly grasped the hem of her dress and chased after her: “Big sister, wait for .”
“Second sister, it’s still early. You have nothing to do, why get up so early? Go back to bed,” Xuexue turned around and said, feigning ignorance at the sight of an elaborately dressed Situtu Qinger.
Xuexue pretended not to know her intentions, making Situtu Qinger itch with hatred. But at a ti when she needed to ask a favor, she couldn’t burn her bridges, so she dropped her head and said pitifully, “Big sister, I really want to visit the Imperial Palace too, could you take
with you?”
“No, the Imperial Palace isn’t our ho. I can’t just take you there; it requires The Emperor’s permission,” Xuexue flatly refused, not wanting to invite disaster and repeat the tragedy of her past life.
In her past life, it was at this very birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager that Situtu Qinger first t the scoundrel Zhang Ruixuan, setting her on a path that led to her tragic downfall.
Situtu Qinger was persistent, clinging to Xuexue’s arm, shaking it desperately, while looking innocent, she said, “Big sister, big sister, just take
to have a look, please. I know, mother wronged you a few days ago, but it has nothing to do with .”
Having been given a second chance at life, Xuexue would not be deceived easily.
Shaking off the hand tugging at her arm, she looked coldly at her: “Second sister, it’s getting late. Don’t delay my trip to the palace.” With that, she walked on.
“Big sister, big sister.”
Situtu Qinger, who had been walking just fine, suddenly fell to the ground.
“Xuexue.”
A loud voice suddenly called out.
Xuexue turned around and saw it was Situ Yongjie. She finally understood why Situtu Qinger, who had been walking properly, suddenly fell down—it was an act.
“Father!” Xuexue finally stopped.
“Don’t bla Qinger for Auntie Tang’s matter. She’s innocent. After all, you are sisters, and blood is thicker than water. You should be considerate of each other,” Situ Yongjie said to Xuexue with a tone of earnestness.
“Miss, Miss, are you alright?”
Orchid ca forward, bending down to help Situtu Qinger up from the ground.
“I’m fine,” Situtu Qinger stood up, very annoyed inside. However, she couldn’t pick a fight at this critical mont in front of Situ Yongjie. So she approached him and said with a weak smile, “Father, don’t bla big sister. It’s my fault for not giving her a heads up before. I just rushed over here in such a hurry.”
