Chapter 4859: Foolishness
Miss Fang suddenly came to her senses, forcefully pulling away from a Qin Estate guard, raising a hand to her throat, and staring at Qiao Mu with a shocked expression.
What had she just said?
How did she feel like she had just said a lot?
Receiving the unconcealed contemptuous gazes of those present, Miss Fang's mind cleared somewhat. She quickly reached out to grab the dumbfounded Sister Yang beside her. "Sister Yang."
Sister Yang quickly shook off her hand, retreated two steps, and said with an incredulous expression, "Miss Fang, you are just too... too foolish."
Sister Yang truly didn't want to attack this pale and unfortunate young lady, but the word "foolish" still slipped out through her clenched teeth.
It had to be said, this Miss Fang was unbelievably foolish.
Even a woman like herself, with limited experience, wouldn't so easily trust a complete stranger, would she?
Someone said the medicine would work, so she just took it and fed it to her brother?
Had she never considered that this potion might harm her own brother's life?
"I didn't, I didn't!" Miss Fang shook her head repeatedly, tears streaming down her face, looking pleadingly at Steward Gu.
Steward Gu was almost driven to tears by this young lady, who seemed utterly oblivious to the ways of the world.
His lips twitched for a long time before he finally stammered out, "Miss, you, why didn't you discuss it with me before you did anything!"
Miss Fang wailed, "It's not my fault! That person tricked me. He tricked me!"
"Alright, no need to listen to her nonsense anymore. She herself is responsible for harming her own brother's life," First Young Master Qin interrupted indifferently. "She can't bear the consequences of harming someone, yet she turns around and blames others. We do not welcome such a person with deplorable and crude character here."
"Yes, we don't welcome her."
"We don't welcome her!"
Everyone joined in the uproar, repeatedly shouting, "Get out of our camp!"
"Throw her into the sea."
"Let her also taste what it's like to fend for herself."
"No, no, no!! No, Uncle Gu, Uncle Gu!" Miss Fang reached out and clung to Steward Gu's sleeve, desperately grasping his hand.
Steward Gu quickly tried to pacify the surrounding crowd, smoothing things over and hastily saying with a forced smile, "Everyone, everyone, please don't get so agitated."
"Who gave you the basic mutagenic potion?" Qiao Mu's cold voice cut through the commotion, immediately dissipating much of the noisy atmosphere.
Everyone thought, That's right, figuring out who gave the potion is more important.
Although the ultimate victim in this matter was only Young Master Fang, the mysterious person hidden in the darkness was the key.
Why did he appear in the camp?
Why did he have such a bottle of basic mutagenic potion in his hand?!
So, among them... there was a secret agent of Heaven's Will stealthily lurking, wasn't there?
"Miss, quickly explain clearly!" Steward Gu was sweating profusely in anxiety.
If Miss was thrown out of the camp at this critical moment, how would a young lady of her status survive?
Steward Gu was anxious. He turned around and saw Murong Yan and Murong Zhao. In his desperation, he rushed over, grabbing the two and saying, "Young Master Murong, please save our young lady! She acted foolishly and made a mistake, but please, for the sake of our master, help us!"
"I don't know, I truly don't know anything!" Miss Fang cried out, "That person appeared before me with his face covered. I, I was also worried about my brother, that's why I, I trusted what he said."
