Chapter 149: Bai Chaosi, Who Are You to Me?

Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Bai Chaosi, Who Are You to Me?

Bai Chaosi, Huang Ziyue, and the others, who were in the middle of setting up the tents, rushed over instantly.

"Shen Yue, what happened?!"

"Shen Yue, are you all right?"

But as they drew closer, they saw that the person clutching their hand, pale-faced and screaming in pain, was Jue Ying.

Bai Chaosi froze. He took two steps forward, not understanding what had happened.

Jue Ying screamed in agony:

"What did you do to me?! My hand... My hand hurts so much..."

Shen Yue put away the silver needle in her hand and lowered her gaze to Jue Ying, who was now bent over in pain.

"I gave you a chance. Consider this hand the price for saving your life."

’She certainly got her fill of running her mouth.’

’Now one of her hands would be the price.’

’We’ll see who got the better deal.’

A Qi quickly ran over. Seeing Jue Ying clutching her hand, he exclaimed in shock:

"Miss Jue Ying, what’s wrong with your hand?"

"Miss Shen Yue, what did you do to Miss Jue Ying?"

Shen Yue glanced at Bai Chaosi’s subordinate.

Jue Ying collapsed to the ground in pain. She looked at Bai Chaosi as he rushed over.

"Young Master, it was her! She hurt my hand! Young Master, save me... My hand hurts so much."

A chill crept over Bai Chaosi’s gentle face. He looked at Jue Ying, who was on the ground clutching her hand and crying in pain, then glanced back at Shen Yue.

His throat tightened. In a somewhat hoarse voice, he asked:

"Shen Yue, what exactly happened here?"

Shen Yue looked at him, her eyes completely devoid of warmth.

"What, are you questioning me?"

The coldness in her gaze froze Bai Chaosi to the spot.

He opened his mouth to speak.

"No, I just want to know what happened."

Shen Yue had no intention of explaining.

But A Qi was frantic.

"Miss Shen Yue, you injured Miss Jue Ying! Don’t you think you owe us an explanation? Why would you do such a thing?"

On the ground, Jue Ying seemed to seize the opportunity. Sobbing, she said:

"Young Master, it was her! I just wanted to come over and help, to do something for her, but not only was she ungrateful, she acted like I was in her way..."

"My hand accidentally brushed against her, and she stabbed my wrist with something! My hand hurts so much..."

"Young Master, she even called me a vixen... I know that coming to find you has disturbed your lives, but I already said I only see you as a brother! But she... she still can’t tolerate my presence! She’s afraid I’ll steal you from her, jealous of the twenty-odd years of history between us. I know she doesn’t like me, that she can’t stand the sight of me, but... I never thought she would suddenly attack and injure me..."

Listening to this, Shen Yue gave Jue Ying another long, hard look.

’This woman.’

’I didn’t lose out on this deal. I really did save a piece of work.’

’A piece of work whose entire purpose is to disgust me.’

Jue Ying felt a chill from her stare, but the piercing pain in her hand made her heart burn with hatred that now reached its peak.

’She dared to hurt me, so I’ll use this situation to make her see with her own eyes who the Young Master truly cares about.’

She looked up at Bai Chaosi, bawling her eyes out, the picture of misery.

Meanwhile, Ye Lüqi and Mu Silin, who were standing nearby, frowned as they listened.

This woman claims Shen Yue is jealous of her?

What a joke.

Huang Ziyue showed no reaction at all, merely sweeping a cold gaze over Jue Ying.

A Qi, however, was furious and chimed in to support her:

"Miss Shen Yue, how could you do this to Miss Jue Ying? At the very least, Miss Jue Ying is like a sister who grew up with our Young Master! She is a lady of our Fox Clan! Even if you dislike her, acting so intolerantly and ruthlessly is only possible because you’re taking advantage of the Young Master’s affection for you! How can someone like you be worthy of being our Young Master’s Female Master?"

Shen Yue narrowed her eyes at A Qi but hadn’t yet spoken.

"Shut your mouth, A Qi!"

Bai Chaosi roared.

A Qi’s eyes reddened with anger. He paid no heed and continued to vent his frustrations:

"Young Master, was I wrong? She dares to treat a member of our Fox Clan like this now. If you really become her Beast Husband in the future, who knows how she’ll treat you?"

"Didn’t you hear me? I told you to shut your mouth!"

Bai Chaosi glared at him, his eyes burning with a warning.

A Qi looked like he wanted to say more, but A Cheng, who was beside him, grabbed him and pulled him back.

"What are you meddling in the Young Master’s affairs for? Did you see what Miss Shen Yue did with your own eyes? Can you just shut up?"

An aura that could freeze hell over emanated from Huang Ziyue as he stared at A Qi.

’This subordinate of Bai Chaosi’s must have a death wish.’

Mu Silin sneered.

"Well, I never knew a mere servant had the right to meddle in his master’s business."

Seeing this, Jue Ying, still on the ground, cried out in pain:

"Young Master, my hand hurts so much! Save me! I didn’t do anything, so why do I have to suffer such pain...?"

"Young Master, everything I said is true! You have to believe me! I really don’t know what I did wrong! My hand hurts so much... Save me, Young Master..."
