Xue Jingjia cast a disdainful glance at Princess Anning, nodded slightly, and finally fixed her eyes on Liu Rumei, with full contempt in her eyes.
"Sure enough, just a country bumpkin. You don't even pay respects when you see me."
Liu Rumei's smile remained unchanged on her face as she calmly replied, "I wonder where I've offended Miss Xue?"
Xue Jingjia looked extremely haughty. "If you're smart, move out of the Prince Guo'an's Mansion right away! Otherwise, I won't let you off easily!"
How could such a country bumpkin gain his favor? It was truly detestable!
Hearing this, Liu Rumei immediately understood. Undoubtedly, Xue Jingjia was also one of Mo Liandi's love interests.
"I wonder what right Miss Xue has to ask me to leave the Prince Guo'an's Mansion?"
Why were they all like this? Princess Anning had also behaved the same way before. It really left her puzzled.
A look of arrogance flashed across Xue Jingjia's eyes. "I'm the legitimate daughter of the Grand Marshal's Mansion. How dare a country bumpkin like you refuse me?"
Liu Rumei couldn't help but shake her head helplessly. There was also a hint of mockery in her eyes as she looked at Xue Jingjia. "I didn't know that the Grand Marshal's Mansion could interfere in the affairs of the Prince Guo'an's Mansion."
Xue Jingjia's expression changed instantly. She glared at Liu Rumei fiercely. "You're so sharp - tongued."
Seeing the two of them like this, Ning Yan'er finally spoke up. "Jiajia, why get angry? Miss Liu is the prince's woman. Don't be so petty."
Liu Rumei raised her eyebrows. Ning Yan'er was really good at fanning the flames. Sure enough, Xue Jingjia's anger deepened a bit more.
"The prince's woman? I've never seen such a shameless woman! How could she be worthy?"
She had shamelessly insinuated herself into the Prince Guo'an's Mansion and even made the servants there call her the princess. It was really ridiculous!
She was neither properly named nor justified. What right did she have to be the Princess Guo'an?
"I didn't know that the Grand Marshal's Mansion had started to meddle in the affairs of the Prince Guo'an's Mansion and even dare to point fingers at this prince's princess! Lord Sima, is this the upbringing of your Sima Mansion?"
Hearing this, Xue Jingjia was shocked. She turned around and saw Mo Liandi's gloomy face.
Beside him was a middle - aged man, sweating profusely. He quickly apologized to Mo Liandi. "Your Highness, please calm down! Please calm down!"
"Get back to your courtyard right away!" In the capital city, everyone knew that Liu Rumei was the apple of Prince Guo'an's eye. Did she really want to turn the Sima Mansion into the next General's Mansion by speaking so boldly?
Xue Jingjia gritted her teeth when she heard these scoldings. She even mustered up the courage to meet Mo Liandi's eyes. "Your Highness, this woman is just a country bumpkin, relying on some tricks. Whether it's in terms of appearance or status, neither Princess Anning nor I are inferior to her!"
Hearing this, Ning Yan'er gritted her teeth. She cursed inwardly that this woman was so stupid to drag her into this!
Almost instantly, everyone turned their eyes to Ning Yan'er, sizing her up.
They were just wondering how Miss Xue had come back and accurately found trouble with Miss Liu. It turned out that someone had been sowing discord secretly!
Seeing this, Ning Yan'er could only pretend to look surprised and indignant.
Mo Liandi cast a cold glance at her. His eyes were filled with coldness. "If your mouth can't utter a single decent word, it's useless to keep it."
Xue Jingjia's heart tightened instantly. Looking at Mo Liandi's cold expression, she suddenly came to her senses and remembered what she had done. "Your Highness, I didn't mean..." that.
However, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xue Changsheng. "Rebellious daughter, quickly apologize to Miss Liu!"
Xue Jingjia looked incredulous. "Father!"
Apologize to this country bumpkin? Did she hear it wrong?
Xue Changsheng looked extremely disappointed. He could only bow to Liu Rumei himself. "Miss Liu, my daughter is impolite. Please forgive her."
Liu Rumei quickly got up and bowed slightly. "Lord Sima, you're too polite. I didn't take it to heart."
This Miss Xue was really brainless. She must have been used by Princess Anning.
Mo Liandi stood beside Liu Rumei, looking unhappy, which made Xue Changsheng break out in cold sweat.
"Please rest assured, Miss Liu. I will surely punish her severely!"
Although the two hadn't gotten married yet, the Prince Guo'an had let the servants in the mansion call her the princess. It was likely that they had done everything they should and shouldn't have.
As long as Miss Liu continued to hold the Prince Guo'an in her hand, the position of Princess Guo'an would surely fall to her sooner or later.
Seeing Xue Changsheng so nervous, Liu Rumei subconsciously glanced at Mo Liandi beside her. There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
"Your Highness, you've scared people."
Mo Liandi couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. "I'm doing this for you."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Liu Rumei with more speculation in their eyes.
Sixi beside them couldn't help but snicker. It seemed that the prince was not so intimidating only in front of Miss Liu.
Looking at the intimate appearance of the two, Xue Jingjia's eyes were full of disbelief. Her eyes were red with anger. How could the prince treat this country bumpkin like this?
Xue Changsheng also made up his mind. He didn't want Xue Jingjia to continue embarrassing herself and angering Mo Liandi. He immediately winked at the steward beside him. The steward immediately understood and called two maidservants beside him. They dragged Xue Jingjia away.
How could Xue Jingjia be willing? But when she met Xue Changsheng's angry eyes, she had to leave obediently.
Xue Changsheng quickly bowed to the people around him. "Jiajia just returned to the mansion and doesn't understand the rules. Please forgive her rudeness."
Everyone present was shrewd. They quickly bowed and shifted the topic with a few words.
But the secret glances at Liu Rumei didn't decrease at all.
Once again becoming the focus, Liu Rumei's eyes were full of helplessness. She felt a bit of a headache.
There was a hint of a smile in Mo Liandi's eyes. "Rumei, you have to get used to it."
His princess would surely become the focus of everyone's attention. There was no doubt about that.
Liu Rumei immediately glared at him. Didn't he see how this situation had been caused today?
Mo Liandi was slightly stunned, but the smile in his eyes deepened. He couldn't help but step forward and hold her soft hand. "We'll go home in half an hour."
Go home?
Liu Rumei's earlobes inevitably turned a bit red. She didn't know if it was right or wrong to nod that day.
Looking at this scene, Ning Yan'er was so anxious that her eyes were red. Her hand hidden in her sleeve was clenched into a fist.
