The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 144 - Unlucky Face

Chapter 144 - Unlucky Face

Yuan Bin knew that his father had made a mistake judging by his expression.
"Father, I'm at fault. I shouldn't have done that to Xinghua, but it was her who seduced me! Was I wrong? The sisters were terrible! She even slandered me before she died! Don't you know yourself that I'm your son? Look how similar we look! We look exactly the same!"
Only now did Master Yuan calm down.
That was right. He was the son that he had been raising for years. His eyes were similar to his when he was younger.
Moreover, if he really suspected where his son came from due to the rumors that were spread out there, he would really become a laughingstock. Not only would he be called a cuckold, but he would be known as the man who was infertile!
Master Yuan frowned and said, "Alright. Look at you, kneeling like a coward! It's chaotic out there. Stay home.. Don't go to the academy for now.".
Gossip could be really scary.
So what if he believed his son? Others might not think the same!
And the d*mn matter about the stepmother…
Ms. Ye was not the Yuan family's concubine but a good citizen who had signed the concubinage document. People in the imperial court might report her regarding this.
Everyone on the street knew about Yuan Bin's matter. Naturally, it spread to the academy as well.
Many recalled what Xie Qiao had said and felt a sudden chill!
It must be a coincidence, right?
Xie Qiao had bet that Yuan Bin's reputation would be ruined within three days… It was only the second day yesterday!
Yuan Bin's reputation… was definitely ruined now!
He had made his stepmother kill herself! It was a big burden that he had to bear. Also… he might be a child of adultery…
Xie Qiao had performed physiognomy on Yuan Bin before. She had not said that his father was someone else, so he should be the Yuan family's child.
However, the Yuan family could not prove themselves no matter what. As such, they felt even more wronged because of that.
It was no wonder that the courtesan had killed herself directly. If she was still alive, people would make up more rumors about her. Now that she was dead, there was no witness or proof. She would rather die in order to reveal Yuan Bin's evildoings. What she had said made the people doubt the Yuan family even more.
One could say that Yuan Bin's future was definitely ruined now!
"Eldest Sister!" Xie Pinghuai almost ran all the way to Xie Qiao.
He was flushing. "Yuan Bin is finished! Hahaha, you're amazing, Eldest Sister. How did you know that bad things would happen to him within three days? Everyone is talking about him out there, saying that he's not the Yuan family's child!
"They were convincing! Some even said that they saw Yuan Bin's mother over ten years ago. They said his mother was intimate with a fishmonger!"
Xie Pinghuai was loud, so everyone looked at him.
He was not the only one who was curious.
Everyone had been thinking since yesterday morning that Xie Qiao would become someone's concubine. How long had it been, and Yuan Bin had stirred such big trouble now!?
Nobody saw Yuan Bin today!
Xie Qiao looked unfathomable, "Heaven's secrets should not be revealed."
Xie Pinghuai's eyelids twitched. "Tell me, Eldest Sister. How did you know?"
"I was just guessing, okay? We can't lose our dignity, so I just cursed him casually." Xie Qiao smiled, looking harmless.
She was a lady, so how could she perform fortune-telling?
"You're in luck, Eldest Sister. You almost lost yourself to a bet," Xie Pinghuai mumbled.
"I didn't just guess simply. That Yuan Bin looks like a bad guy. I'm an official's daughter, and he dared to flirt with me. Judging by that, he must've done many bad things. No one can avoid his shoes being wet if they're always walking along the riverside. Also, he had an unlucky face. I had a feeling that he would fall into an unfortunate event lately," Xiao Qiao analyzed.
