"She has been cleared," Bai Xue shook her head, "but now everyone in the residence will think it was the young lady who spread the word, right?"
Tonger was taken aback, Qingfeng said, "Exactly! That's the point!"
"Wronged, oh how wronged!" Tonger cried out, "We really haven't said a single word about it!"
Jiang Li fell into contemplation.
Although she very much wanted to clear Miss Jiang the Second of this charge, she also knew that one must think of the bigger picture, that family scandals should not be aired in public. If this matter spread through the streets and became common knowledge, it would be bad for Miss Jiang the Second's reputation and also hinder Jiang Yuanbai's career. If Jiang Yuanbai fell, the Jiang Family would inevitably be devoured and consumed by others. Therefore, she had never planned to speak of Ji Shuran's affair.
