If she kept this sort of scheming white lotus around, it could transform into a bomb anytime. Fang Xinxin paid no attention to her and turned to head to the living room.
Liang Hong could only beg Butler Zhao. “Butler, she doesn’t have the power to fire me. Please be merciful.”
“You spoke incorrectly.” Zhao Cheng responded expressionlessly. “The young master has stated that she is the Yu Ting Villa’s lady. She has the power to not only fire you, but also, if she wishes to replace every single employee in the Yu Ting villa, all she has to do is to say the word. Pack your things and scram immediately. Don’t force me to arrange for men to throw you out of the estate.”
Liang Hong’s eyes reddened in grievance. However, there was nothing she could do to change this.
Chun Yu mocked by the side, “My good friend, don’t assume that I’m blind to your thoughts. I finally realised that I’m not the only one who wished to climb into the young master’s bed. You did too. You must have thought that given I’m more beautiful, your chances would improve after I’m forced away. Look what you’ve done. Both of us have to leave from here now.”
“We’ve lost our chance. How can you still laugh?” Liang Hong was nearly angered to death.
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have said anything. As long as she remained in the Yu Ting Villa, she would have had some semblance of an opportunity.
Butler Zhao had only taken a few steps when he heard their conversation loud and clear. He was astounded.
His expression instantly turned stony with displeasure. “The two of you are but mere servants. Servants should not have inappropriate thoughts about what’s beyond their station. Our young master is our most noble master. Do you have the right to desire him? Guards! Reward Chun Yu and Liang Hong heavily with fifty canes! Regardless of whether they are dead or alive afterwards, toss them out of the Yu Ting Villa!”
“Yes, Sir.” Several male servants approached them respectfully. They held the women against the ground with their feet and lifted poles that were as thick as their elbows, slamming it against the two maids without any mercy.
The two maids were beaten up to the point where their skin tore open and their wounds were oozing with blood. They fainted from the pain several times but were unable to cry out.
This was because the guards made sure to shove balled-up pieces of cloth into their mouths beforehand.
The Yu Ting Villa would not allow these sort of servants to taint their masters’ ears with their cries.
Fang Xinxin had heard Butler Zhao’s command, but she chose to pretend not to have heard anything. She did not have any extra sympathy to waste on such people.
Now, she was curious to see if there were any other maids that would dare to have thoughts about Bai Qinghao after this incident.
It was likely that the other maids would place the responsibility of this matter on her shoulders and she would soon be known as a jealous wife.
No matter.
Right from the beginning, she had no intention of keeping any subordinates who had inappropriate thoughts about their master.
Fang Xinxin sat in the living room on the first floor, sipping a cup of tea.
Butler Zhao approached and spoke respectfully. “Miss Fang, the two maids have been beaten up with only a single breath remaining. They have been tossed out of the Yu Ting Villa.”
“En.” She nodded calmly and lifted the tea cup for a graceful sip.
“Fang Manxue is outside the villa requesting to meet you right now. She claims that she has an extremely urgent matter and needs to meet you immediately.”
“What’s so urgent?”
“I asked her about it but she was unwilling to share the details. She claims that it is a secret relating to Young Master and that she has to speak to you herself.”
“Oh?” Fang Xinxin lifted her brows.
Her interest was indeed piqued. Fang Manxue, that vixen, was likely to come up with schemes regardless of whether or not Fang Xinxin was watching her. She felt there was no harm in seeing her perform a little. “Send her in then. Arrange for someone to watch her. Don’t allow her to take any photos or videos of the Yu Ting Villa.”
“Understood.”
…
Fang Manxue stepped into the extravagant front yard. The luxurious view clearly flaunted the owner’s wealth.
She brought her phone out to take a video to post on her social media. She wanted to post it on the school forum. This way, everyone would know that she was still a relative of the emperor despite her poor reputation.
