Chapter 49: Dinner
Murong Qingxue is not a fool. Although Lin Weiwei usually treats her with respect, she can see right through her eyes that she’s not very willing!
“Qingxue, I also know that Lin Weiwei’s words cannot be trusted.” Liu Mei cautiously said: “But, even if it’s like that, I’m sure that some part of it is true. I saw the injuries in her body. I also inquired if Housekeeper Lin really sent someone to repair Murong Qingyan’s bed and if he really sent the silvers.”
Murong Qingxue’s eyes flashed with a trace of impatience: “Murong Qingyan can’t cultivate, so even if she learns martial arts, she can’t compete with me.”
“I know, I just wanted to make things clear.” Liu Mei couldn’t help but sighed, “Tomorrow will be the Clan’s General Assembly. Murong Qingyan doing this at a time like this makes me really worried. As you know, the result in this Clan’s General Assembly will affect your future.”
“I will be one of the top three.” Murong Qingxue’s eyes look very firm when she added: “Then, I’ll go with Brother Ye to the Academy.”
This time, Murong Qingxue is really determined to be one of the top three. Because as long as she’s one of them, she’ll be qualified to attend Qinglong Academy. Nangong Ye was invited personally by the Academy, so she must thrive to win. Otherwise, who knows what might happen to their engagement if she won’t get accepted.
“Qingxue, of course, you will.”
Liu Mei said because she is very confident and she believes in her daughter’s strength. At the same time, her heart is very pleased, because if her daughter got accepted to Qinglong Academy. Murong Clan’s status will increase one again.
When that happens, her position and influence in the family will also relatively improved.
Just by thinking all these, Liu Mei’s heart felt even happier. So at that moment, she couldn’t help but secretly thinks if she’s really happy for her daughter or herself. Anyway, both of them absolutely shouldn’t make any mistake. Or else, all of their efforts will be wasted.
So, no matter what Murong Qingyan is planning to do, she won’t let her succeed.
After thinking about it, Liu Mei’s eyes flashed with a trace of darkness.

Around Dinner Time
Because of what happened previously, Housekeeper Lin didn’t dare to face Murong Qingyan. But, he asked someone to sent her a dinner. However, it’s not the same like before because they are not leftover foods.
When Murong Qingyan ate a mouthful amount, she stopped from chewing. Then, she smiled coldly.
“Eldest Miss, is there any problem?” The maidservant who delivers the food asked when she saw Murong Qingyan stops from eating.
Murong Qingyan turns her head and looks at directly to the maidservant. The coldness in her eyes could make a person shudder.
Murong Qingyan’s eyes were full of oppression, so the maidservant had a difficulty to breath and her heart got filled with fear. But, she doesn’t know why. She doesn’t know why a waste Eldest Miss like her can cause fear inside her heart. She even felt that if she continues doing this, she might die of suffocation.
