Clearly… she was more outstanding than Feng Ruqing. Was it not?
In the past when they were in Liu Yun Kingdom, everyone liked her and snubbed Feng Ruqing.
When did it all begin… that everything changed?
Yes, it was after Feng Ruqing was divorced by her husband and had knocked herself to death.
After that, she became incredibly dazzling, stealing away the limelight that should have been hers, and even stealing away the heart of the man she loved!
When Tan Shuangshuang thought about the various things of the past, her expression was so twisted and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
Old Master Mu acted like he did not see her as he looked at Feng Ruqing instead. “Oh? Why did I not know that you two were old acquaintances?”
“That is because… her father was an official of my father in the past. Oh, that’s right. Old Master, you should check first if her child is related to Mu Ling. After all… she had been with other people before.”
Rustle!
Tan Shuangshuang’s face turned snow white. Her body trembled as she looked at Feng Ruqing in anger. “Feng Ruqing, I know that you are envious that Liu Yuchen had liked me and that he had divorced you back then. However, you cannot simply accuse me. My child is naturally the blood and flesh of the Mu family!”
Divorced?
This word was extremely sensitive.
Everyone turned to look at Feng Ruqing and the rest in surprise.
Tan Shuangshuang was previously with someone else? Was she attempting to taint the blood of the Mu family?
The maiden loved by the Mu family’s Young Master Nan Xian… was also married before?
Old Master Mu’s expression turned ugly. “What is going on?”
Tan Shuangshuang saw the old master’s darkened expression and felt a jolt of happiness in her heart. She looked at Feng Ruqing rather viciously.
‘You won’t allow me to live well. So, I won’t let you off too!’
That day, Tan Shuangshuang had hidden away after escaping and did not return. Furthermore, on the day of the battle, only the family clans who were present knew what had happened. However, those people were already taken away by Gu Shi, so the truth was not widely known.
Therefore, nobody knew clearly that the Mu family was able to overcome the threat they were facing because of Feng Ruqing.
The current Tan Shuangshuang still insisted on her thinking that Feng Ruqing was just the same as her. That she was a woman who had to rely on other people to survive.
“Old Master, I guess you don’t know. Back then, Feng Ruqing was promised to another and was even married for a while. Her ex-husband was Liu Yuchen. However, Liu Yuchen disdained her for being fat, so he pursued me. However, Feng Ruqing held this vengeance against me, targeting me at every possible chance. In reality, I had never thought of fighting with her for a man. It was Liu Yuchen’s own wishful thinking.”
Tan Shuangshuang paused a moment before continuing, “I indeed frequented the Liu family, but I went there to see Lady Liu. It was not related to Liu Yuchen. Feng Ruqing thought that I was trying to get close to Liu Yuchen and had ordered people to beat me up. She was also extremely unfilial. In order to stop Liu Yuchen from taking in a concubine, she had angered her mother-in-law to the point that she fainted. Liu Yuchen was a filial son, so he divorced her for his mother.”
As Tan Shuangshuang was telling the story, she looked at Feng Ruqing once again as the cruelty in her eyes increased.
This was Feng Ruqing’s own undoing. If she had not brought up the past and slandered her for attempting to taint the blood of the Mu family, she would not have brought up her past like this.
Seeing the old master’s expression becoming increasingly ugly, Tan Shuangshuang spoke again, “Old Master, if such a person is to be allowed to stay in the Mu family, there will definitely not be peace. I think the young lady also does not wish to have such a daughter-in-law in order to prevent her from fainting out of anger. After all, she has done such things before.”
The whole street was silenced by Tan Shuangshuang’s words.
