With a cold smile, Xue Fanxin slapped the maidservant again. “You’re stirring up trouble, talking nonsense, distorting the truth, and fanning the flames. You deserve to be beaten.”
“Miss…” The maidservant covered her cheek and cried loudly. She showed Xiao Keyi her miserable state to gain sympathy.
Xiao Keyi frowned slightly. “Miss, no matter how wrong my maidservant is, you shouldn’t have attacked so heavily. Although you slapped her face, it’s equivalent to slapping me. If you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation for what happened today, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“What kind of explanation do you want?” Xue Fanxin was getting more and more curious about Xiao Keyi.
Logically speaking, a rich missy like Xiao Keyi should have lost her temper by now. She would use her influence to bully others and not stop until she crippled the other party.
However, Xiao Keyi’s way of doing things was still considered gentle. From the beginning, she had not gone overboard. Only when her maidservant was beaten did she get a little angry. But it was just a little.
It could be seen that Xiao Keyi’s temper was quite good. She must not be too bad.
Xue Fanxin did not want to make too many enemies for herself. She felt that Xiao Keyi was not that annoying, so she did not intend to fall out with her, but she would not compromise either.
Xiao Keyi was really stumped by Xue Fanxin’s question. If she slapped her, it would seem vulgar and boring. If she crippled her, it would seem a little overboard, but if she did not do anything, it would be too embarrassing.
The maidservant got depressed at her indecision. “Miss, my face hurts. My teeth have been loosened. You must uphold justice for me! I was only opening the way for you. Not only did these two people not make way, but they also spoke rudely and even hit me. I… Boohoo…”
“Hey, do you believe that if you say another word, you’ll be unable to speak forever?” Xue Fanxin warned. Then, she looked at Xiao Keyi. “Miss Xiao, I really want to ask if all the maidservants in your Xiao Estate are like her? Why do I feel that she is the young miss of the Xiao Estate and you are only her attendant?”
“Miss, it’s not like that. Don’t listen to this b*tch’s nonsense. She must be trying to sow discord,” the maid explained anxiously, but her words were very unpleasant. She kept saying ‘b*tch.’
Xiao Keyi was dissatisfied with her words, but she did not say anything. She only frowned and asked Xue Fanxin, “Why do you ask, Miss?”
From Xiao Keyi’s reaction, it seemed Xue Fanxin’s words convinced her more.
Xue Fanxin smiled evilly. “From the discussions in the crowd, I can tell that Miss Xiao’s reputation in Imperial Capital is not too good. You’re famous for being arrogant, domineering, and bullying others. But according to my observations, you don’t seem to be such a person. So where did this bad reputation come from?”
“I’ve never taken the rumors in the city to heart.”
“Miss Xiao is open-minded and admirable. If you were as the rumors said, it would be nothing to have such a bad name. But it’s equivalent to taking the blame for others. Could it be that Miss Xiao is willing to take the blame for others forever?”
Xiao Keyi fell into deep thought. Clearly, Xue Fanxin had struck a chord.
The maid, on the other hand, was anxious. She glared at Xue Fanxin, looking like she wanted to kill her.
