Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 32 Having both sides
Old Mrs. Xiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed dryly, "That's right, then you should go back and rest quickly!"
Xiao Ruge bowed with a smile, then apologized, took Bai Zhi and a lot of rewards, and swaggered back to Ruyi Garden.
Seeing so many rewards going into Ruyi Garden, Xiao Mingyue's eyes turned red with jealousy, and she could only say a few sarcastic words.
"Second sister is really good at playing both sides. She persuaded Concubine Rong and Concubine Chun to give her so many gifts. But she is alone, and I don't know whether she will choose the third prince or the fifth prince in the end?"
She said this unintentionally, but the listener took it seriously.
Old Mrs. Xiao immediately fell into deep thought, thinking about the meaning of Xiao Mingyue's words.
Thinking back that it was the Third Prince who sent Xiao Ruge back just now, it felt like Xiao Ruge might be closer to the Third Prince.
Didn’t you see that when the Third Prince left, he told Xiao Ruge to come to him if she had any problems?
She thought that Xiao Ruge might have had an affair with the Third Prince, so she called Xiao Mingzhi and asked him to go to Ronghui Hall with her.
When Lin saw this, she snorted, took Xiao Jinzhi's arm, and strode back to her own yard.
As for Xiao Mingyue and Xu, they naturally returned to the backyard.
However, the more Xiao Mingyue thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She felt that Xiao Ruge might become a stumbling block on Lu Yu's road to success, and she must get rid of Xiao Ruge as soon as possible.
So she sneaked out of the house, asked Chunzhi to go to Lu Yu's house to deliver a letter to him, and she went to Huiwei Tower to wait for him.
Mu Gu originally wanted to ask Duanmu Ling to find a place to talk about Xiao Ruge, but he happened to see Xiao Mingyue's figure disappearing at the entrance of Huiwei Tower.
He frowned and said to Duanmu Ling: "I have something to do today, let's make an appointment another day!"
"What's going on? Where are you going? Why don't you take me with you?"
Duanmu Ling became unhappy immediately when he saw Mu Gu was about to leave, and pulled him aside to get things clear.
It happened that Princess Jianing came out for shopping at this time, and when she saw Duanmu Ling, she immediately ran over happily.
"Brother Duanmu! What a coincidence!"
Mu Gu took this opportunity to pull out his sleeves, glanced at Duanmu Ling teasingly, and said with a smile: "It's rare for the princess's cousin to come out. It's really fate that you two can meet. Why don't you spend more time with your cousin? I'm leaving first!"
Princess Jianing was very satisfied with Mu Gu's understanding. She glanced at Duanmu Ling shyly, and when he was about to chase Mu Gu, she reached out to stop him.
"Brother Duanmu, last time you said you would treat me to a meal, it's been so long, when are you going to fulfill your promise?"
Looking at Princess Jianing in front of him, Duanmu Ling felt helpless and sighed, "Princess, what do you want to eat? I will treat you today."
"Really? Then let's go to Tianxianglou! The mixed flower soup there is especially delicious!"
Princess Jianing was just a little girl after all. Although she clung to Duanmu Ling very much, Duanmu Ling still showed his best temper and took her to Tianxiang Tower.
At the same time, he secretly cursed Mu Gu for being disloyal as he just abandoned him.
At this time, Mu Gu, who was scolded by Duanmu Ling for being disloyal, had already entered the backyard of Huiwei Building.
He walked up the stairs, pushed open a wooden door and walked in. He reached out and pulled out a wooden plug on the wall. Soon, a sound came from next door.
"Miss, what would you like to eat?"
The waiter served Xiao Mingyue a pot of tea and asked with a smile.
"Pick five or six of your restaurant's signature dishes, and a pot of daughter's red wine."
"Okay, wait a moment, girl. The food and drinks will be ready soon!"
The young man went downstairs with a smile and closed the door.
At this time, Xiao Mingyue was the only one left in the room. She stood up and paced back and forth, feeling a little irritable.
Mu Gu kept looking inside with an expressionless face. No one knew who she was waiting for. After all the food and drinks were served, the person she was waiting for still hadn't arrived.
Xiao Mingyue was also a little anxious at this time, and kept going to the door to listen for any noise.
Finally, after waiting for a while, a figure pushed open the door of the private room.
"Brother Lu, you are finally here!"
Xiao Mingyue went to meet him happily, with a hint of shyness on her face.
Lu Yu smiled and closed the door tightly, saying softly, "I happened to encounter something on my way out, so I'm sorry to have kept Miss Four waiting for a long time."
"It's okay, as long as you can come!"
Xiao Mingyue looked at Lu Yu with blushing cheeks, then gently pulled his sleeve, and the two sat down at the table.
"I wonder why the fourth young lady asked me to come here?"
Lu Yu curled the corners of his mouth at Xiao Mingyue's little action, but did not stop it.
"There are indeed some things, but they are nothing important. Brother Lu hasn't had dinner yet, right? I ordered Huiweilou's signature dish, why don't you try it first?"
Lu Yu smiled and nodded, "I'm really hungry. This dish looks delicious!"
He didn't act pretentiously and just picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
When Xiao Mingyue saw this, she quickly poured him some wine, just like a little wife serving her husband. This made Mu Gu sitting next to her frown.
After they had eaten for a while, Xiao Mingyue mentioned the matter of Xiao Ruge.
"My second sister was honored when she entered the palace today. The Third Prince personally sent her back. In my opinion, my second sister will marry the Third Prince sooner or later!"
Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He originally wanted to wait and see. After all, Xiao Ruge had a bad reputation before, and he was afraid that marrying her would have an impact on him.
But now even the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince have shown their goodwill to her. If she continues to wait, she will probably end up with nothing.
Thinking of this, he rolled his eyes and asked casually, "Why did the second young lady of the Xiao family suddenly become so close to the two princes?"
Xiao Mingyue pouted, "My second sister is not an ordinary person. She must have used some tricks to make the third and fifth princes revolve around her!"
"But how can a woman be so fickle between two men? Isn't this just fickle?"
Lu Yu frowned and felt a sense of disgust towards Xiao Ruge.
The woman he wants to marry must not be such an unruly person!
"The Second Miss looked like a steady person, but I didn't expect her to be so frivolous."
Hearing Lu Yu's tone full of disgust, Xiao Mingyue was delighted, but she said, "Yes, I often advise her, but Second Sister always scolds me for not meddling in other people's business. Now that she is loved by the two ladies in the palace, I am afraid she will be even more arrogant in the Xiao Mansion in the future!"
As she spoke, she sighed, her face filled with sorrow.
"I used to speak directly and bluntly, which offended my second sister a lot. I'm afraid she's going to use this as an excuse to attack me!"
Lu Yu gently put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"
"Of course not. Don't you know that my sister looks kind and generous, but she is actually petty and vindictive. She will definitely take revenge on me!"
Xiao Mingyue kept belittling Xiao Ruge, which made Mu Gu next door clench his fists.
