After Recklessly Courting Death, I Caught the Attention of a Yandere - Chapter 41

No matter what others have done, it’s ultimately their family affairs. As an outsider, pointing fingers and judging whether others are right or wrong in front of people is somewhat inappropriate after all.

Moreover, these are all matters from the previous generation.

Regardless of whether what they did was right or wrong, or what might happen, those are their own affairs, not something she as one person can gossip about here.

Of course, thinking about it privately in her heart is still acceptable.

Yun Dan is someone who likes gossip.

Especially when faced with such explosive information.

However, the person before her is Dongfang Wuchen, so no matter how much she wants to gossip, she can only give up on this thought.

“So that’s how it is. Your parents really have quite a destined connection.”

However, what made Yun Dan most curious was that Dongfang Wuchen also mentioned the Tang Sect.

She remembered that at Tianqing Manor, she had also heard Xiao Yueqing mention that his mother was once from the Tang Sect.

And now Dongfang Jue’s first wife was also from the Tang Sect.

Does this Tang Sect specialize in producing manor masters’ wives?

It’s just a pity that this first wife passed away twenty years ago.

Otherwise, if there were an opportunity, she really could inquire and see if she knew Xiao Yueqing’s mother.

At this moment, Yun Dan was still soft-hearted after all.

Thinking of Xiao Yueqing’s circumstances, she wanted to know just how heartless his mother was.

“Yes, so since childhood I’ve been very envious of the relationship between them. Speaking of which, Miss Yun Dan, I’m really glad you could enlighten me. You make me feel that I’m not alone, that at least there’s someone willing to listen to my opinions and tell me I’m right. I’m determined to make you my friend.”

Heaven above, earth below, I’ve finally established a friendship with you!

This establishes a good friendship, which means she can be a qualified spy when the time comes.

“After spending this time together, I also think you’re quite nice. We indeed can be good friends. Remember to keep applying this ice. If I stay in your room for a long time, it wouldn’t look good if word got out, especially since a servant already noticed me entering your room just now.”

Dongfang Wuchen nodded and raised his hand to take the ice from Yun Dan’s hands.

Though there were still many words unsaid in his heart.

But Dongfang Wuchen ultimately considered Yun Dan’s reputation and didn’t try to detain her further.

“Thank you for being willing to listen to what I said. I’m truly very happy. But you’re right, I was indeed too rash. It won’t happen again.”

When Yun Dan left Dongfang Wuchen’s room, the notification sound rang again.

[Ding—— Target character Dongfang Wuchen’s favorability increased by 10%, current favorability 20%]

20%…

Yun Dan just couldn’t understand.

They’re both people, both the type who have never been in love. Why does Xiao Yueqing’s favorability only increase bit by bit each time, barely rising at all?

While Dongfang Wuchen’s favorability shoots up rapidly?

Now it’s troublesome.

“It’s over, this favorability difference is half! This is really killing me. Dongfang Wuchen’s favorability is already at 20, while Xiao Yueqing is still only at 10. His favorability must not randomly skyrocket anymore, I can’t handle this kind of blow.”

Yun Dan still doesn’t know what kind of consequences there might be.

She just feels it’s better to have fewer troubles if possible.

The servant from earlier was quite surprised to see Yun Dan come out safe and sound.

He mistook Yun Dan for a maid from Mingyue Manor, so he curiously approached her and asked, “Say, when you went into the room just now, didn’t the young manor lord lose his temper at you? Every time someone goes in and encounters the young manor lord in a bad mood, they inevitably get a harsh scolding.”

The subtext was that Yun Dan actually managed to come out unharmed.

This situation was quite rare indeed.

Yun Dan was quite calm about it.

After all, Dongfang Wuchen isn’t some fierce demon.

Although he has his own little moods, he wouldn’t do anything to harm others.

That’s enough.

She smiled at the servant and said, “The young manor lord is quite nice as a person. When I went in just now, he only complained a bit and didn’t fly into a rage. I think the young manor lord is just unhappy, so he acted impulsively.”

The servant nodded with some doubt.

He didn’t say anything more after that.

Yun Dan didn’t know that someone had already reported everything to Mulan.

Just as Yun Dan returned to her own room, the door was pushed open.

The person who entered was a middle-aged woman.

“Hello, may I ask what business you have?”

However, this nanny didn’t pay attention to Yun Dan, but instead gave a look to the side. Soon two maid-like people entered and directly escorted Yun Dan to an unfamiliar room.

Pushed into the unfamiliar room, Yun Dan was completely bewildered at this moment.

She wondered what the hell was going on.

Soon footsteps sounded behind her.

She instinctively turned around, only to see that the person behind her was none other than Mulan.

Yun Dan still remembered her identity, so she greeted Mulan.

“Greetings to Madam Dongfang.”

Mulan nodded, but her gaze remained fixed on Yun Dan, with the distinct feeling of examining something.

After a long while, she finally sat down and said, “I’m just inviting you over for tea. There’s no need to be so afraid of me, is there?”

Although Yun Dan didn’t know what Mulan intended to do, she still sat down.

While drinking tea, Yun Dan was still thinking that Mulan was at least the manor lord’s wife of Mingyue Manor. She surely wouldn’t come to make things difficult for her, a junior, right?

After putting down the teacup in her hand, Mulan finally spoke, “Tell me, what’s your relationship with Wuchen?”

Well, so this is a direct interrogation session.

Yun Dan touched her nose and replied very calmly, “Young Master Dongfang and I met by chance, nothing more. Young Master Dongfang is a good person who brought me to Mingyue Manor for treatment.”

This information was roughly the same as what Mulan had learned.

Dongfang Jue had already sent people to investigate Yun Dan before.

It’s just that the investigation results still made Mulan very puzzled.

Why would there be someone with no traceable information, as if they appeared out of thin air?

Therefore, she couldn’t help but be somewhat vigilant.

It’s not that Mulan likes to suspect others.

It’s just that this person was brought into the manor by her son, so she should question her thoroughly to be safe.

To avoid letting a wolf into the fold.

“Is that so? I’m just curious why I can’t find any information about your past?”

“Young lady, don’t be too nervous. The current situation is different from before. Too many people want to infiltrate our Mingyue Manor. We’re just following procedure.

Moreover, you were brought into the manor by Wuchen. My son is inexperienced and too naive, so I, as his mother, have to screen people. You won’t mind, will you, young lady?”

Yun Dan couldn’t help but want to roll her eyes.

Why does this manor lord’s wife also speak in such a passive-aggressive manner?
