Huh? The Tyrant Cries After My Inner Thoughts Were Exposed!-Chapter 42 - 41: You Two Are Really Close

Wu Ziyu was mad with anger.

Su Juan looked bewildered, "Miss Wu, did I say something wrong that upset you?"

She thought she hadn’t said anything, just thought about it in her mind. Could it be that Wu Ziyu could read what she was thinking?

Wu Ziyu wanted to tear apart Su Juan’s hypocritical face, she was so annoying, "Stop pretending, don’t think we don’t know what you’re thinking in your heart!"

Su Juan felt aggrieved, "What am I thinking in my heart?"

[Could it be that you know about my daydreams of feasting on delicacies and being surrounded by handsome men every day?]

[Wouldn’t it be hilarious if you knew, could you help make my dreams come true?]

Su Juan was almost laughing madly inside.

Liu Xuan also looked at Wu Ziyu, his gaze revealing confusion, "Miss Wu, is there a misunderstanding? Lord Su means no harm."

Wu Ziyu: "Mr. Liu, don’t be fooled by her, everything she says is a lie, and what’s in her heart, who knows how vile it is!"

Hearing this, Liu Xuan chuckled, "Miss Wu, you’re joking. How could you know what’s in Lord Su’s heart?"

[Exactly!]

"It’s better not to speculate on others’ thoughts."

[Mr. Liu makes sense, while you’re busy liking someone, you should also learn this excellent trait!]

"I..." Wu Ziyu was so angry her teeth itched, but she couldn’t bring herself to repeat Su Juan’s disparaging remarks about her.

She suddenly looked at Xie Xun, "Mr. Xie, do you really not know what Su Juan is thinking?"

As soon as she said this, everyone present looked at Xie Xun, only to see him with a puzzled expression: "Huh?"

"Miss Wu, how could I know what Miss Su is thinking? I’m not a worm in her belly."

Xie Xun played dumb, as if Wu Ziyu had said the biggest joke.

Wu Ziyu’s face turned red with anger, and everyone looked at her as if she were a monkey on the street.

Xie Xun could clearly hear what Su Juan was thinking but pretended not to, those two were obviously in cahoots!

At this time, Xie Xun looked at Wu Ziyu as if looking at an idiot. Even the Emperor and all the civil and military ministers pretended not to hear Su Juan’s inner thoughts. Anyone should know what’s best to do, but she insisted on exposing it. It’s hard to understand how the Minister of Rites raised such a foolish daughter.

Su Juan sighed and stepped forward, "Miss Wu, don’t be angry. If I said anything that made you uncomfortable, I apologize..."

She hadn’t even finished her sentence when she saw Wu Ziyu grab the freshly brewed hot wine from the table, and her body instinctively dodged to the side!

Su Juan was startled, [Scared me to death!]

[If that had splashed on me, my face would be ruined. Wow, this little girl is quite ruthless and impulsive.]

Wu Ziyu, with reddened eyes, threw down the wine cup, "Who wants your insincere apology!"

Xie Xun: "Wu Ziyu, are you crazy?"

Su Juan dodged, and the scalding wine spilled over Xie Xun behind her, his brow twitching, "This was a new outfit I just wore for the first time today!"

Su Juan raised an eyebrow, [Since when do you wear any outfit twice?]

In the Capital City, everyone knows that Young Master Xie’s clothes are never worn more than once.

Xie Xun snorted coldly, the young master of my family has so much money that it can’t be spent, what’s wrong with wearing a few more outfits?

He looked at Wu Ziyu, as if wanting to settle the score with her.

Wu Ziyu gritted her teeth, seething with anger, she shouted directly at Xie Xun, "Who asked you to protect her? You deserved it!"

She took out a pouch of broken silver and hurled it at Xie Xun, scattering everywhere.

"It’s just a few pieces of rag! I’ll compensate you!"

Su Juan’s eyes lit up: [Wow! Throwing silver on the ground... Seems like the Minister of Rites is quite wealthy!]

Wu Ziyu ran off with red-rimmed eyes.

Xie Xun shook off the wine from his clothes, looked at Su Juan with disdain, "Why did you mess with her and get me dragged into this mess?"

"Luckily, I was wearing thick enough clothes today!"

Su Juan looked apologetic, "It’s my fault, I’m sorry."

She apologized while handing over her handkerchief, "Here, wipe yourself."

[He used to be a peacock, at least he was good-looking. Look at him now, a drenched chicken, can’t bear to look.]

Just as Su Juan handed over the handkerchief, Xie Xun was about to take it when Liu Xuan intervened, giving his own handkerchief to Xie Xun, his voice warm as jade, "Use mine."

Xie Xun didn’t think much, taking Su Juan’s with his left hand and Liu Xuan’s with his right. No matter whose handkerchief it was, he would take it.

Liu Xuan paused for a moment and then smiled helplessly.

Both handkerchiefs ended up with Xie Xun, and he still couldn’t help but complain to Su Juan, "You really don’t see who in the Capital City dares to mess with their family?"

"I usually avoid the Wu Family, and you go provoking them, you really aren’t afraid of death."

Su Juan suddenly became curious, "Why avoid her? It’s just a girl, can she really kidnap you?"

[Look at this coward, not even a bit like the esteemed Duke Ping.]

Xie Xun: "It’s obvious you’ve never been tormented by their family!"

Not to mention myself, even my father avoids the Wu Family when he encounters them!

This family is known for being exceptionally unreasonable.

Not only Su Juan was watching Xie Xun, but Liu Xuan was also watching, thinking he was exaggerating. The Minister of Rites is frank in the court, and while the Wu Family is strong, it’s not to the point Xie Xun makes it out to be, needing to be avoided.

Xie Xun gritted his teeth, pointing at Liu Xuan, "It’s obvious you haven’t either!"

Among those present, he was the only one who had suffered.

Su Juan and Liu Xuan exchanged glances, with the latter smiling silently.

[Look at how scared Xie Xun is, it’s really rare.]

Seeing no one could understand his plight, Xie Xun clutched his chest, looking hurt. Once, just a stone hitting the Wu Family’s cart, and they were camped out for three days and nights.

During those three days, my father couldn’t even attend morning court and was even reported to the Emperor by the Minister Wu.

Today, Wu Ziyu suffered a great grievance, and when she returns, she’ll surely complain. Who knows where the Wu Family will wait tonight.

Su Juan looked at Xie Xun, then at Liu Xuan, [Why are these two always together, is it a coincidence?]

Xie Xun pouted, where are there so many coincidences in the world.

Watching the two before her, every time she saw Liu Xuan, Xie Xun was bound to be there, yet these two don’t seem like people who would even associate with each other.

One is always reciting poetry and painting, studying all sorts of classics and essays.

One is always frequenting brothels and whorehouses, seeking pleasure.

Su Juan looked suspicious, curious, "Are you two close friends?"

The next second, the two spoke in unison.

Xie Xun: "Not familiar."

Liu Xuan: "Good friends."

Su Juan looked left and right, her squinted eyes sparkling with excitement: [Oh wow, there’s a story here!]
