Lin Xiaojing, brimming with righteous indignation, began to berate her: "You were always telling us how Xie Qiqi made things difficult for you. But if she truly had, would she have been able to hold back and not tell Old Madame Xie about how you all bullied her?"
Had Yue Yue stolen someone else's engagement, she would have certainly run to Old Madame Xie to demand justice for herself. Yet, Xie Qiqi cared so deeply for Old Madame Xie that she chose to suffer in silence rather than speak a word. And yet, Yue Yue, in her desperate attempt to break the engagement, had gone out of her way to expose the truth, ultimately scaring Old Madame Xie to death. Who was good and who was wicked? Wasn't it perfectly clear?
Shancha, still feeling that her grievances hadn't been fully vented, pointed at Yue Yue and hissed, "Lin Xiaojing, you were right to call her vicious. You all thought causing Old Madame Xie's death was the only wrong thing this sweet-faced wretch has ever done? No, there is so much more... Take Xie Qiqi, for instance. You all know that Yue Huijuan used Xie Qiqi to trade for her release from the Imperial Prison. A normal person in her position would have been filled with gratitude toward Xie Qiqi! But not her. She hated Xie Qiqi to the core. From the moment Xie Qiqi returned, she lived in fear that the Xie Family would treat her well, fearing that Xie Qiqi would steal their affection away, so she tried every possible scheme to frame her."
