Chapter 710: Forgot Your Identity
Editor: Henyee Translations
Shao Qingyuan helped Gu Yundong into her carriage while Tong Shuitao rode.
As for his original carriage, he handed it to Ah Zhu.
As soon as Ah Zhu sat in the shaft of the carriage, he said to Xue Qin, who also wanted to come up, “Walk back yourself.”
After saying that, he shook the reins and the horse chased after the carriage in front.
Xue Qin’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at the carriage that was getting further and further away. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She stomped her feet fiercely and said to Xue Zongguang, who had also been left behind, “Father, look at him. What kind of person is this? As soon as Young Master left, he immediately changed his expression and didn’t take us seriously. That carriage isn’t his.”
However, Xue Zongguang suddenly shook off her hand and said, “You’re the one who thinks too highly of yourself. Who do you think you are? You’re just a servant. What right do you have to sit in Master’s carriage? Little Brother Ah Zhu has been by Master’s side for so long, but you’ve only seen Master twice. You didn’t even leave a good impression on Master. Ah Zhu is already being polite to you.”
Xue Qin’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at her father who had scolded her. “Father, what are you talking about? Yes, we’re servants. Others look down on us, but we can’t look down on ourselves. What’s wrong with servants? Are servants not humans? Besides, who said that I didn’t leave a good impression on Master? I helped Master block the danger just now. Master must be touched.”
It was as if Xue Zongguang was meeting his daughter for the first time. As expected, they had stayed in the manor for so long that they had forgotten their identity and really thought of themselves as the master of the manor.
He raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face.
Xue Qin only felt a burning pain on her face, and her expression was filled with shock. “Father, you, you hit me?”
“Yes, I’m waking you up. You’re trying get close to Master even though you know he has a fiancée. That’s shameless.” Xue Zongguang sneered. “Master is touched? I didn’t see that at all. Do you think that it was something to protect your master? Let me tell you, it was completely unnecessary. If you hadn’t been in his front, he would’ve kicked Doctor Liu away. I saw everything outside of the window. Master was not touched, only annoyed.”
“No way.”
Xue Zongguang felt extremely tired and blamed himself for not teaching his daughter well.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard a soft click. Xue Zongguang was stunned and looked up. He saw Jiao Laosan walking out from the corner with an awkward smile on his face.
It seemed like he had been standing there for a while and had probably heard a lot of things.
No matter how much Xue Zongguang wanted to educate his daughter, he could not do it in front of outsiders.
He smiled at Jiao Laosan and dragged Xue Qin away.
Jiao Laosan rubbed his nose and watched as the father and daughter walked further and further away. Then, he punched the wall in frustration.
It turned out that he was the one who was really insensitive. He had almost done something bad out of good intentions.
Xue Zongguang brought Xue Qin to the manor in a hurry. The Jiao Village was not far from the manor, but it still took them a lot of time on their two legs.
When the two of them arrived outside the manor, Xue Zongguang saw Madam Wan standing at the entrance with a worried and resentful expression.
Xue Zongguang had a bad feeling. He quickly took a few steps forward and asked, “Why are you standing here?”
