The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 145 – Integrity

Chapter 145: Integrity

Xie Pinghuai kept nodding.

Before today, he thought he would definitely die.

If his eldest sister lost the bet with Yuan Bin because of him, he would be at a loss as well! His father would definitely chase him out of the house!

Fortunately, he was safe now.

The rest who listened attentively thought it was unbelievable.

Yuan Bin must have lost everything this time, right? Meanwhile, Xie Qiao had merely been guessing!?

“Oh yeah, doesn’t Yuan Bin owe us ten kowtows?” Xie Qiao asked in all seriousness.

Xie Pinghuai clapped. “That’s right! Should I talk to him? Wouldn’t it be terrible? He’s hiding at home and dares not come out now…”

Although Xie Pinghuai said that, his eyes were filled with excitement.

How could he not get Yuan Bin to do that? It was he who had lost the bet!

Since his eldest sister was pretty, she perhaps may be soft-hearted as well. Thus, he thought he would ask.

“Sure, it was a bet. Someone wins, and someone loses. Since we won, we can’t let him get away with it just because he’s pitiful. However, I’ve some errands to run in the afternoon. Go to the Yuan Residence to remind him. I’ll wait for him at the academy tomorrow. I must receive the ten kowtows.” Xie Qiao nodded in all seriousness.

Everyone was astounded upon hearing that.

They suddenly had a certain perception of this Young Lady Xie now.

Weak?

That did not exist.

Look at Yuan Bin’s current predicament! Everyone hated him. They had even heard that some people had thrown vegetables outside the Yuan Residence!

If this happened to someone else, they would not care about the insignificant bet. However, she was persistent!

After obtaining Xie Qiao’s approval, Xie Pinghuai was like a big swan that had won a battle. He walked away after glancing at everyone in the class with his head and chest up.

‘That jerk Yuan Bin will have to kowtow to me!’

It was quiet at the Orchid Courtyard. Even Xia Yayun, who had always been chattery, held back and kept quiet now.

Xie Qiao turned her head to look at them and smiled lightly. She was liberal as she spoke. “Sorry that you guys had to see that. I’m teaching my Brother about integrity.”

Xie Qiao glanced at Xia Yayun with a complicated expression. It was uncertain whether she was smiling after she was done speaking.

Xia Yayun felt uneasy. She glared back viciously before looking away.

She and Xie Qiao had made a bet too—the 500 silver beans donation.

If Xie Qiao failed to collect it, she would have to leave Orchid Courtyard. If she managed to do that, Xia Yayun would have to leave.

Xia Yayun suddenly felt uneasy.

‘How many silver beans does Xie Qiao have now?

‘She won around 60 at the swordsmanship competition, right? I think she’s been copying books lately. I wonder what kind of books she’s copying and how many silver beans she’s getting.

‘Oh, she’s always away at noon… Perhaps she’s off to do some assignments.’

Xia Yayun suddenly felt uneasy, so she secretly stalked Xie Qiao in the afternoon. She saw Xie Qiao walking to the stable and bringing a few horses out a moment later. She watched the horses running around the field in a relaxed manner. Those horses…

Xia Yayun was dumbfounded.

She recognized that the few horses had different saddles on them. They were the fiercest ones in the academy. They had kicked many people, and they were considered ownerless horses.

Xie Qiao was responsible for taking care of them!?

She wondered how many silver beans Xie Qiao was making from that per day.

She thought Xie Qiao looked like a good-for-nothing, that she definitely could not find any assignments that she could handle. However, now it seemed… different from what she had imagined.

Xia Yayun felt rather guilty, and her heart sank when she thought about the bet she had made with Xie Qiao.

Xie Qiao was serious. If she managed to gather the donation, perhaps she would be even more proud by then.

It was quite an easy task to take care of the horses. She did not think it was embarrassing. After all, the academy prohibited the presence of maidservants. There were even more embarrassing chores that the students were willing to do.

Moreover, when she took care of the horses, all she had to do was to watch. Sometimes she would ride on the horse and get it to walk slower. She could even read a few books while at it.

It was very relaxing.
