Lady Xue's accusation was directly aimed at Long Linger, which surprised Tang Qingxue greatly. So it turned out that the goodwill shown just now was all a facade; she knew Lady Xue wasn't that kind-hearted. Despite the enticing conditions she offered, Tang Qingxue naturally wasn't willing to betray Long Linger.
"Aunt Xue, I'm sorry, I can't tell you!" Tang Qingxue flatly refused her.
Lady Xue was taken aback. Such favorable conditions, yet this girl actually refused. What annoyed her even more was that Tang Qingxue declined so decisively, without a shred of hesitation.
Usually, this little girl was very timid and cowardly, never daring to refuse any of her requests, no matter how unreasonable or demanding. She always complied submissively, never this bold before, especially with that confident posture.
