Chapter 657: Master Dog Will Teach You a Lesson
“Ah! My hand!” The thin-voiced old servant came back to her senses and screamed as she looked at her hand. Long Yuning wanted to shout too, but when she saw the scratch on her arm and the old servant’s almost crippled hand, she immediately rejoiced.
March transformed into a divine beast that guarded the house and walked back and forth in front of Long Yuning and the old servant. From time to time, it would lower its head and let out a low roar, looking like it would bite them again at any moment.
The old servant covered her bitten hand and shouted, “Young Madam, I know you’re nearby. I invited you out to talk, but you hid and didn’t come out. You even let the dog bite us. Could it be that you feel that you’re being unreasonable, so you don’t dare to come out? In the past, I didn’t believe Old Madam when she said that you didn’t have the bearing of the madam of the Xie family. Now, it looks like that’s really the case.”
Before she could finish her sentence, March barked twice, as if in response to the old servant’s words. Then, it put on a posture that said, “If you say another word of nonsense, Master Dog will teach you how to be a person.” In fact, the old servant should thank March. March usually did not apply poison to his claws because it lived in the Xie Manor. Otherwise, the old servant and Long Yuning would have already become corpses.
Long Yuning took off her coat and bandaged the old servant’s wound. “Auntie Zhao, are you alright?”
!!
At this moment, Long Yuning saw more than ten broadcast cars outside. More than a hundred reporters and photographers were rushing towards the Xie Manor with their cameras. They looked like mosquitoes that had smelled blood.
Ten minutes ago, the major media outlets in the Capital received a notice from the headquarters that they were to come to the entrance of the Xie Manor for an interview and were allowed to film the Xie Manor today. This news directly exploded the entire Capital’s media world. Only a small portion of them have come now. The remaining large group of reporters was on their way here. It was estimated that all of them would arrive at the scene in half an hour at the latest.
Long Yuning was dumbfounded when she saw the large group of reporters who suddenly came. “Who called so many reporters?”
However, the reporters finally discovered Long Yuning and immediately surrounded her like a swarm of bees. All sorts of cameras engulfed her.
“Long Yuning? Miss Long, why are you in the Xie Manor? And you seem to be injured?”
“Miss Long, we received news that someone is causing trouble in the Xie Manor. We didn’t expect that it would be you. May I ask why?”
“This is the Xie Manor. Miss Long, why did you barge into their house? What’s your goal?”
Long Yuning was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly surrounded by the reporters. However, she reacted quickly and hurriedly pretended to be aggrieved. “Dear reporters, everyone has misunderstood me. I didn’t barge into the Xie Manor or cause trouble here. I came to the Xie Manor to visit my sick third aunt, Xie Yuhuan. I just wanted to go in and see her before leaving, but Madam Xie refused to let me in.”
A reporter asked, “Then how did you get the wound on your arm?”
Long Yuning was embarra.s.sed to say that she had been bitten by a dog, so she could only lie. “Oh, I’m fine. I just accidentally slipped and fell.”
When the old servant with a hoa.r.s.e voice saw that the reporters were here, she shouted again, “Madam Xie is too inhumane. Our Old Madam is seriously ill and wanted Miss Yuning to go in and visit her. However, not only did she not let Miss Yuning in, but she also let the dog out to bite us. Look at how that beast bit me.”
The servant at the side retorted, “Hmph, what a load of nonsense. Don’t listen to their one-sided story. The Ninth Master has ordered that Long Yuning is not allowed to enter the Xie Manor again.”
Upon hearing this, a reporter asked, “Can you tell us why the Ninth Master didn’t let Long Yuning enter the Xie Manor? What grudge do they have?”
The servant at the door sneered and said, “Everyone, you should ask Long Yuning. She knows better than anyone why the Ninth Master doesn’t let her enter the Xie Manor.”
The reporters turned to look at Long Yuning. Long Yuning hurriedly lowered her head and pretended not to hear anything. Clearly, she didn’t want to answer this question. What should she say? Should she tell the reporters that she was almost buried alive by Xie Jiuhan last time because she provoked Feng Qing?
Long Yuning was unwilling to say, so the servant at the door said, “As servants, we naturally have to listen to the family head. Back then, Ninth Master did not allow Long Yuning to enter the Xie Manor because this woman was shameless. She framed Young Madam and tried to seduce Ninth Master. Then, she was chased out of the Xie Manor and was ordered to not let her enter the Xie Manor again.”
Long Yuning immediately retorted, “What are you talking about? I didn’t seduce the Ninth Master or frame Qingqing. Don’t slander me!”
