Chapter 187: Slaps To The Face
Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud
Not only was it too much, it’s simply malicious!
The young misses and young masters were disgusted and one after another, turned to look at Helian Wei Wei. Each of those hateful eyes wanted Wei Wei, this evil girl, to be punished without a second’s delay!
“Accused wrongly?” Wei Wei smiled, her voice neither anxious nor slow. “Whether you were accused wrongly is not up to you to say, a witness is needed.” After saying this, she looked up, turned to Head Abbot Fang Zhang and curtsied. “Great master, ever since this commoner entered the temple, my heart has been disturbed. After I received this package of jewelry, I imdiately asked that young master who followed by your side to help perform a blessing, in order to pray for blessings and ward off evil spirits. I didn’t expect that this would beco the proof of my innocence. Is it possible to ask the young master to co now?”
What? !
Little Lian couldn’t believe it as she looked up, that little face full of tear stains instantly paled!
Retired Emperor knitted his brows and didn’t say anything.
Head Abbot Fang Zhang saw Wei Wei’s eyes turn towards him, steadily and calmly, professing to have been pure and honest, peaceful and unmoving. He felt that this matter was quite interesting, so he laughed. “Of course it’s possible, Wu Dao, you go call Wu Fan over here.”
“Yes, Abbot Fang Zhang.” The novice monk accepted the order.
Soon, he brought a person back.
“Abbot Fang Zhang, were you looking for ?”
“I’m not the one looking for you. It’s this female benefactor who’s looking for you.”
The novice monk followed the direction of Fang Zhang’s gaze. After he saw that it was Wei Wei, his fair and clear face beca bashful. “Female benefactor, it’s you.”
“It’s .” Wei Wei placed her palms together and bowed in respect. “Young master, please look at the things on the ground. Are these the jewelry I’ve asked you to bless.”
The young novice monk didn’t know why she’d asked this. As he looked at the jades and bracelets scattered on the ground, he couldn’t help but sigh. “Amitabha. Having been blessed, they’ve beco blessings from Buddha, how can female benefactor not cherish them this way!”
“Young master, you misunderstood. It’s not that she didn’t treasure them. Soone wanted to fra her, so they bumped into her on purpose, and even insisted that these things were stolen by her.”
A deep, thoughtful voice echoed by the side of the door.
Everyone looked over and only saw Hei Ze, who hadn’t spoken before, lazily leaning on the wood door, with hands crossed at his chest, as he looked up with a level gaze.
Once Hei Ze’s words dropped, not only did Little Lian shake all over, even Chen Wen Wan’s complexion beca pale as she took a large stride backward.
Why!
Why did Young Master Hei speak on behalf of that girl!
The young novice monk stared blankly and intuitively answered. “These were all things that this benefactor.” Saying this, he pointed at Little Lian, then pointed at Wei Wei. “Gave this female benefactor. At the ti, I was fasting outside the room and personally saw it. How did it beco stealing?”
“Then, in other words, soone indeed lied, and even kept saying that they’ve been accused wrongly without honor, nor sha.” Hei Ze was wearing a smile that’s not a smile as he glanced at Little Lian. “This maid of Madam Su really broadened my horizons.”
Clang.
The jade bracelet in Little Lian’s hand dropped, forcibly broke into pieces on the ground, as her pupils trembled. With great effort, she suppressed the flustered appearance on her face.
She’d never thought that this girl would, in the mont that she barely left, she already asked soone to have these jewelry blessed!
This...was this still that sa uncivilized girl who didn’t understand anything?
How did she possess such profound shrewdness!
Little Lian lifted her head and looked over, only saw Wei Wei smiling lightly looking back at her. Within that gaze, there wasn’t any bit of a smiling expression.
Suddenly, she seed to understand sothing, as an unprecedented fear flashed through the depths of her eyes.
No, it couldn’t be.
She couldn’t possibly be that clever!
Yet the things that Wei Wei had done made her couldn’t help but think that!
Since this girl had already asked the novice monk to bless the jewelry, then just now, why didn’t she imdiately ask the novice monk to co identify these jewelry instead of having her called to testify first.
Not until after she’d lied according to the madam’s prior instructions did that girl say that actually, she’d already have soone bless these items early on!
Was she overthinking it?
Why did she feel that everything, everything was a sche Wei Wei deliberately set up!
In order to beat them at their own ga, she had them all gathered here!
Otherwise, from the beginning, Wei Wei could’ve called the novice monk over to prove her own innocence. She simply didn’t need to be superfluous like the way she’s been!
Thinking up to this point, Little Lian indescribably shivered from head to foot. Her body trembled as she looked at Wei Wei, a look that appeared as if she’s looking at a demon!
However, Chen Wen Wan, who hadn’t experienced these sches before, still hadn’t seen through the situation and only turned towards Hei Ze’s direction to take a look. Her white teeth tightly bit on her red lips. “Isn’t the Young Master jumping to conclusions too quickly in saying that? The novice monk said that he’d perford blessings on behalf of Younger Sister, but who’s there to witness it? That pitiful maid even said that the jewelry she brought were different ones, also without anyone witnessing otherwise. How can we say that she’s lying and not soone else who’s being deceitful.”
Hei Ze didn’t even get a chance to speak.
That novice monk beca angry and declared with a red face. “Benefactor, monks don’t act with deceit. I’m a Buddhist disciple and disdain telling lies to cheat people! If you don’t believe this, you can ask Abbot Fang Zheng. As long as an object has been blessed, a faint sll of sandalwood will remain.”
“Ha ha ha, this disciple of mine is correct.” Head Abbot Fang Zhang laughed heartily, then imdiately bent over to pick up a jade bracelet from among the group, held it up to his nose and slled it. “It indeed has been blessed.”
The novice monk turned towards Chen Wen Wan and fiercely harrumphed, as if he’s saying you can slander , but you can’t slander my Buddhist’s integrity! Monks don’t tell lies!
After they saw this scene, everybody beca silent. Their gaze couldn’t help but turn towards Little Lian, a maid who after she delivered the jewelry, she’d lied.
Everybody weren’t fools. They naturally guessed that this matter wasn’t so simple.
Looking at Helian Jiao Er, they also started to surmise.
How could Helian Jiao Er accept this kind of looks. ‘Pow’, she turned her hand over and slapped Little Lian’s face, with an appearance of disappointnt towards Little Lian, and spoke with trembling lips. “It’s too bad that my mother trusted you as much as she has, how could you, how could you speak without thinking!”
That slap was even more ruthless than the one from Wei Wei.
When Wei Wei slapped her, she didn’t intend to slap her speechless. After all, in this show, Little Lian was not the main character.
After Helian Jiao Er made her move, a humming noise from martial qi sounded out.
Little Lian’s entire face beca swollen, the corners of her mouth spilled blood. Don’t ntion opening her mouth to speak, even maintaining her kneeling position had beco sowhat difficult. She also didn’t dare to say anything, and only unceasingly knocked her head on the ground, beseeching Retired Emperor to be rciful. “It’s this maid who’s failed to live up to the miss and madam’s expectations. It’s just that the eldest miss ordinarily had such a fierce temper that this maid can’t put up with it any longer. That’s why I lied.”
Wei Wei listened calmly, as she curved her lips up emotionlessly. So she wanted to suggest that Madam Su and Helian Jiao Er’s innocent?
