"This is outrageous!" Tong Xiyan paced back and forth in the room, fuming, "I must go and reason with them."
Daiju held her back, "Miss, please calm down." After a pause, she added, "If you go, by tomorrow, it won't just be the people in the mansion; the entire Capital will know."
Tong Xiyan stopped in her tracks, but felt a fire burning inside. She swept the teacups and dishes off the table onto the floor, and still not appeased, she grabbed an inkstone and threw it, tears falling from her eyes.
Daiju supported her, wiping her tears, feeling heartbroken. The young lady has been unlucky; living honestly since she left the Jiang Family, she never expected to get caught up in such a baseless affair. The Han Family is deliberately trying to ruin her reputation!
Xiqiu returned to the mansion; Fourth Master Xiao and Zhi were not back yet. She changed clothes and asked Nanny Cen, "Why is no one here? Hasn't Min returned either?"
