Just as Madam was about to slap Second Madam again, Xia Yuhan pushed Second Madam away, taking the slap herself.
Madam realized that Xia Yuhan took the hit for Second Madam and deliberately increased her strength...
With a loud "smack," Xia Yuhan lost her balance and fell to the ground, the side of her face that Madam had slapped instantly burning with pain. But even so, Xia Yuhan did not show any sign of submission!
Enduring the pain, she silently got up from the ground, staring coldly and fiercely into Madam's eyes, speaking each word clearly: "Madam, I don't know what wrong my mother has done, but as her daughter, I am willing to bear all the blame! Yu Han is also willing to take responsibility for her own mistakes!"
Of course, the slap was not taken in vain; what Xia Yuhan wanted was far more than this!
Upon hearing this, Madam appropriately withdrew her hand, a barely perceptible smirk appearing at the corner of her mouth: "If you know you're wrong, then you must change! Immediately!"
Madam's tone was no longer calm as it had been at first; there was now a hint of impatience.
Then she looked mockingly at Second Madam, even too lazy to walk over to her: "Ruxin, you shouldn't need me to teach you how to act next, right?"
Perhaps she felt that she no longer regarded them as rivals, which is why she didn't hide her true feelings anymore?
Xia Yuhan silently observed everything without saying a word.
If they were to leave Xia Manor today, Madam would surely blame all the faults on them! It was fine if Xia Yuhan couldn't hold her head high, but she absolutely could not let the mother of this body suffer alongside her!
Second Madam was the biological mother of this body and now also hers; she was the one who provided warmth during her most helpless times! She had an obligation to give her "mother" a comfortable old age.
Moreover, if they really left Xia Manor, it would be even more impossible for Xia Yuhan to find that man who took away her purity relying solely on her own strength!
Therefore, no matter what, Xia Yuhan would not leave Xia Manor today! Madam, your plans are destined to fail! How could Xia Yuhan allow herself to be led by the nose in such a critical matter?
However, she had no idea what to do next; perhaps she lacked confidence. She had no leverage to suppress Madam, so she didn't know how much chance of success her next actions would have!
But who was she? She was Xia Yuhan! Even if there was only a ten percent chance of success, she would give it her all! Madam had dealt a heavy blow trying to force them into a dead end, but Xia Yuhan would not let her have it!
For a long time, they remained silent, but everyone understood the reason behind it. For more chapters, please visit.
The maids could not comprehend why, at such a critical juncture, Second Sister and Second Madam were still here insisting on their stance; it was a waste of time. It would be better to make a choice sooner and suffer less.
Moreover, no matter how much Second Sister transformed, she could not escape Madam's grasp! The methods of Madam were well-known to those in service; either she did not act, or when she did, it was always with lethal intent.
Although Madam offered them two paths, both choices were ultimately dead ends!
...
Xia Yuhan remained silent because, like the other servants, she understood Madam's intentions. She also speculated that Madam would not personally force them out of the house or compel Xia Yuhan to take her own life at such a critical moment. If General Xia returned to investigate this matter or if others inquired about it, Madam would find it impossible to extricate herself cleanly from the situation!
Thus, while waiting for Madam to expect her decision, she seized the opportunity to seek a way to save herself! After all, every moment was heavy and precious for both her and her mother!
It is no exaggeration to say that if they could not devise a plan for a complete retreat, even if they wished to stay in Xia Manor, they would not even be able to remain by the latrine!
...
Everyone was frozen in this seemingly still yet tumultuous scene.
At this crucial moment that could determine Second Madam's complete downfall and Madam's total rise, each person imagined what would happen next, revealing various expressions as they harbored their own thoughts.
Madam, who had always been confident in her plans, began to doubt herself.
She never expected that Xia Yuhan would be so composed. If it had been any other time, she would have already cried like a beauty within half a cup of tea and obediently followed her wishes to end her own life!
What on earth was happening? This Xia Yuhan had been sullied yet returned as a different person!
After waiting and waiting, still no sign of Xia Yuhan's response; Madam grew somewhat impatient!
In contrast to Xia Yuhan, who was calm, Second Madam stood aside with an anxious expression, unsure whether to speak or remain silent. She looked back and forth between Xia Yuhan and Madam in confusion.
“Ruxin, I don't think I should wait any longer, right?” Finally, Madam couldn't hold back any longer and asked impatiently. Seeing that she couldn't find a breakthrough with Xia Yuhan, she simply directed her sharp words straight at Second Madam!
“Ah... I... I...” Second Madam never expected that Madam would come to ask her what her decision was. In a moment of panic, she stumbled back a few steps...
She was originally someone without much opinion in such situations, and the reason she could survive in Xia Manor was largely due to General Xia's affection for her. However, because of this, Madam felt both resentment and hatred towards Second Madam.
Xia Yuhan timely reached out to support the unsteady Second Madam: “Mother, are you okay?”
Second Madam seemed a bit dazed: “Yu Han, we... I…”
To this, Xia Yuhan remained calm and composed, smiling lightly: “Mother, shall I help you leave here?”
Second Madam stared blankly; she didn't know whether to shake her head or nod, allowing Xia Yuhan to assist her...
Seeing that Xia Yuhan was about to leave Xia Manor, the eager gazes of the maids shot towards her. They had initially thought things would unfold as they imagined, but instead, events took an unexpected turn. Ultimately, they had underestimated the Second Lady of the Xia Residence!
The Second Sister of Xia Manor, she was not Sun Wukong; even if Madam were the Tathagata Buddha, she could not suppress Xia Yuhan...
