Part 1: A Dream Within A Dream / Rebirth of Ill Fated Concubine

Chapter 015 Weaving A Web

The door was knocked open with a "click", and Chen Fang appeared in front of Jiang Ruan, followed by the furious Lian Qiao. The clothes on both of them were messy, and they must have been torn just now.

Jiang Ruan didn't even look at Chen Fang, her eyes were still fixed on the page in front of her. Zi Su was blowing hot and cold tea for her carefully. Lian Qiao hadn't said a word since entering the room, and walked to Jiang Ruan and lowered her head politely.

In this way, Chen Fang was left aside, and no one paid attention to her. Chen Fang was anxious and wanted to wait for Jiang Ruan to ask first, but Jiang Ruan didn't even look up to see her thoughts. Chen Fang's heart was beating, and such an attitude made her feel unsure, and the atmosphere was unusually heavy.

After all, she was a teenage girl, and generally she couldn't hide her emotions. Chen Fang endured and endured, but still said angrily: "Miss, I have something to ask you." Jiang Ruan didn't even raise her eyelids, and said lazily: "Ask." 

Chen Fang was stunned again. Jiang Ruan's attitude made her feel annoyed. Thinking of the reason for coming today, she became more angry: "Miss, didn't you go to see the moon beauty a few days ago?" 

"Yes," Jiang Ruan heard this, thought about it, and then said: "That night I suddenly felt a little unwell, so I didn't go to appreciate the flowers." 

"How could Miss be like this?" Chen Fang became even more angry: "It was clearly an appointment with me. If you don't go, at least you should send someone to tell me." 

"Ah?" Jiang Ruan looked at her with a little surprise: "No one told you? Lian Qiao, didn't I tell you to tell Fang'er that I wouldn't go that night? You are playing too much and forget what I told you." 

Lian Qiao bowed: "I will never forget the young lady's order. That night, I went to the Pear Garden and wanted to wait for Fang'er to come and tell her about this. But Fang'er didn't come after waiting for a long time. I thought Fang'er knew about this and didn't come, so I went back after three o'clock."

Jiang Ruan smiled apologetically: "It was a misunderstanding, Fang'er, now you have heard clearly that this matter has nothing to do with me."

Chen Fang was so angry that the powder on her face kept falling off. She had never expected Jiang Ruan to have such a lukewarm attitude, as if she had punched a soft cotton ball with force. She had no place to use her strength and was angry for nothing.

"But Fang'er," Jiang Ruan frowned slightly, "It's been such a long time since we made the appointment. Why are you asking me about what happened that night now? Could it be that you didn't go to the pear garden at all, but you firmly believed that I did?"

Chen Fang was stunned, and a trace of nervousness flashed across her face: "No, no, it's just... it's just that I found out today that the young lady had never been there. That night, that night I had something and couldn't keep the appointment..." Chen Fang was a little incoherent. She found that no matter what she said, there were loopholes in her words.

Jiang Ruan spoke sympathetically: "In this case, just treat it as a misunderstanding."

Chen Fang bit her lip. Even though she was very unwilling in her heart, she couldn't find where she was right. She only blamed herself for coming too hastily today and not even thinking of a comprehensive countermeasure. Just when she was worrying, she heard Jiang Ruan's indifferent voice again: "Seeing you rushing here, I thought something happened, it's good that you're okay."

Chen Fang's heart tightened up all of a sudden, and she looked at Jiang Ruan with some uneasiness, and met Jiang Ruan's smiling eyes. Her eyes were extremely gentle, and they surrounded people charmingly like spring water, but when she looked closely, she felt that the clear eyes contained bursts of murderous intent, and the flying eyes were full of strange sharpness.
