Chapter 38: Framed
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Miss Xia Chuxing had instead acted out a scene of a woman being with ten men. There might be more than ten men. Anyway, from the looks of it, there were plenty of people.
The servants all shook their heads, feeling embarrassed just thinking about it.
It was truly obscene and disgraceful.
Old Master Xia was so livid that he wanted to beat Xia Chuxing to death, but he was stopped by Madam Ruan who was crying.
Madam Ruan quickly signaled Xia Churan with her eyes, asking her to take Old Master Xia away.
Xia Churan doted on her younger sister a lot and nodded at Madam Ruan.
However, when she led Old Master Xia out, Xia Churan looked back at the scene in the room and thought that it was a little bizarre.
That scene seemed to be what she had prepared for Xia Muqing.
Why did it happen to Xia Chuxing this time?
Could this be related to Xia Muqing?
She thought about how this had happened the moment Xia Muqing came back today. Although Xia Churan felt that Xia Muqing couldn’t possibly be that capable, she had always been vigilant, and her wariness towards Xia Muqing had reached its peak.
She could only wait for Xia Chuxing to wake up to find out what had happened.
The fury on Old Master Xia’s face was still terrifying. He hadn’t expected the usually obedient and sensible Xia Chuxing to do something like this.

Just like Xia Muqing, the shameless wretch.
Old Master Xia, who cared the most about his reputation, would never have thought that there was more to this matter.
Or perhaps he simply didn’t want to care about what happened.
He only knew that Xia Chuxing had lost her virginity and wouldn’t be able to marry a high-ranking official to benefit him in the future.
Xia Churan obviously knew what Old Master Xia was thinking. She listened to him and didn’t mention her suspicion.
Old Master Xia stared intently at Xia Churan.
This was the first time Xia Churan felt such an intense gaze from Old Master Xia.
“Churan, don’t disappoint me again.”
With that, Old Master Xia flicked his sleeves and strode forward.
Xia Churan stayed where she was and didn’t take Old Master Xia’s words to heart.
She had the same wish as Old Master Xia. She wanted to marry a powerful high-ranking official.
She wasn’t sad that Old Master Xia was using her.
They used each other and benefited each other.
She turned around and went to look for Madam Ruan.
Xia Chuxing had already been moved back to her own courtyard.
Madam Ruan was raging at the servants in the courtyard.
Seeing Xia Churan enter, she quickly went up to her.
“What did your father say?”
Xia Churan shook her head and didn’t mention that Old Master Xia had given up on Xia Chuxing.
Madam Ruan was already furious enough. It was better not to bother her now.
Even if Xia Churan didn’t mention it, how could Madam Ruan, who had been married to Old Master Xia for more than thirty years, not know his temper?
Thinking of Xia Chuxing’s fate in the future, she couldn’t help but tremble.
Xia Churan quickly helped her to a chair.
“Why would Chuxing do such a thing? Someone must have framed her.”
Since Madam Ruan was able to let Old Master Xia dote on her for decades, she naturally had her capability.
“Xia Muqing?”
Madam Ruan lowered her head and pondered for a while. Suddenly, she raised her head. She could see more clearly than Xia Churan.
It must be Xia Muqing’s revenge.
She had underestimated her all these years.
Indeed, how weak could that woman’s daughter be?
“Is Xia Muqing really that capable?”
Xia Churan had also suspected her, but she didn’t want to believe that she was that capable.
To be able to frame Xia Chuxing to this extent right under their noses.
Madam Ruan patted Xia Churan’s hand and gritted her teeth when she thought of Xia Muqing’s mother.
“Come to think of it, after all these years, we’ve all been fooled by that wretched girl. That’s true. How could that woman’s child be so weak?”
Xia Churan wanted to ask more about Xia Muqing’s mother, as she was still young at that time, and she didn’t know much about what had happened.
