Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535: Chapter 532: Hatred Poison _1

Fortunately, Bai Qingyan was placed in a courtyard by Madam Dong. It only took a few steps for Chun Tao.

Deep down, Chun Tao despised Qiu Huan and felt endlessly relieved... Lucky she followed the young lady to Dengzhou. Who knows what kind of monsters would serve by the young lady’s side otherwise.

"Princess!" Qiu Huan saw Chun Tao leave and hurriedly kowtowed to Bai Qingyan. "It really wasn’t me! I just wanted to serve the princess well without any ulterior motives. Sister Chun Tao feared I’d steal your favor and tripped me up. I... I..."

Qiu Huan’s voice grew smaller as she saw Bai Qingyan’s cold and indifferent gaze. In the end, she couldn’t even lift her head and knelt there, trembling in silence.

Nanny Wang, upon hearing Bai Qingyan call for her and seeing Chun Tao’s unpleasant expression, felt a pang in her heart. She suspected her niece might have caused some trouble.

She put down her chores and hurried towards Bai Qingyan’s room. Upon entering and passing through the swinging pearl curtain and the Xique rosewood screen, she saw Qiu Huan kneeling on the ground.

Nanny Wang’s heart sank. She quickly lifted the pearl curtain, bypassed the screen, and entered.

Upon hearing the sound of the curtain, Qiu Huan trembled. Seeing it was Nanny Wang, she immediately sought help with her eyes.

Nanny Wang glared at Qiu Huan, then bowed to Bai Qingyan. "Cousin!" _{fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com}

"Nanny Wang, take this maid back!" Bai Qingyan’s tone was indifferent.

"Yes!" Nanny Wang dared not ask more. She only said, "Early tomorrow, I will bring a few smart ones for you to select."

"Being smart isn’t crucial. I prefer someone honest and with a good heart who doesn’t gossip or stir trouble." Bai Qingyan continued leafing through the ancient book in her hand. "This time, for your sake, I’ll let her off. Nanny, don’t let this maid serve my grandmother. She’s too old to handle such turmoil."

Nanny Wang immediately understood that Bai Qingyan had discovered the relationship between her and Qiu Huan. She quickly kowtowed. "Thank you, Cousin. Rest assured, I won’t let this girl serve Madam Dong. It’s my fault for letting her slip into your side. You show mercy by letting her go, but I won’t! I apologize to you!"

"Please rise!" Bai Qingyan reached out to support Nanny Wang. "You’ve served my grandmother for many years, like half an elder to me. There’s no need for such formalities between us! I understand your character. I’m not blaming you... Take her back and train her well. After all, she was born and raised in our household, unlike those bought from outside. If she makes a mistake, people will blame you."

These words were meant for Nanny Wang. Having spent many years in the inner court, she understood the implications well. This time, Qiu Huan had leveraged her connection to reach Bai Qingyan.

Nanny Wang took Qiu Huan away and mercilessly had her whipped a few times for reflection.
