It was a scorching summer day, and the sun was at its hottest time in the afternoon. Even Xia Qianxing, who was hiding in the shade, could feel the scorching heat from the breeze.

She picked up a leaf from the ground and used it as a fan. After a while, a strange sound rang out in her ears.

"Wuwuwu ~"

Xia Qianxing listened carefully and realized that someone was crying. She curiously looked for the source of the sound.

At the front of a house, there was a maid in uniform wiping away her tears. Xia Qianxing walked over and asked, "Who are you? Why are you crying? "

The maid seemed to have not expected to meet someone here. She raised her head to look at Xia Qianxing and said with tears in her eyes, "Sister Xian told me to wash my clothes, but yesterday my hand was injured and I couldn't touch the water."

Only then did Xia Qianxing realize that the maid had a basin of clothes in front of her that belonged to the other maids. She curiously asked, "Why don't you just use the washing machine to wash the clothes?" It was impossible for the entire Di Hao villa to not have a washing machine, right?

"Sister Xian insisted that I wash them with my hands." The maid wiped away her tears, but they only increased.

Xia Qianxing also felt some sympathy for this girl, so she rolled up her sleeves and sat on a stool in front of the washbasin. "Let me help you wash."

"No way, how can I let you do my work?" The maid quickly stopped Xia Qianxing.

However, Xia Qianxing remained unmoved. She skillfully flipped through the clothes in her hands. "Go and rest first. I'll help you with this little bit of clothing."

Xia Qianxing had been doing household chores by herself ever since she was young. In high school, she studied while working, so she didn't waste any time on chores. Therefore, she did things quickly and efficiently.

"Thank you, my name is Cheng Qiao Lan, what about you?" Cheng Qiao Lan's pretty face was red from crying, looking somewhat cute.

"Xia Qianxing." Xia Qianxing smiled faintly. She finally met someone in the Di Hao villa who didn't hate her.

"You're Young Mistress?" Cheng Qiulan had also heard about Xia Qianxing's matter, but unlike others who loathed it, she was actually full of sympathy for Xia Qianxing.

This was the first time she heard someone calling her Young Mistress, and Xia Qianxing was unable to adjust to it in a short period of time. She gave a self-deprecating laugh and said, "Don't call me that. You should call me Qianxing instead!"

Xiao Yueze only married her to torture her. In the entire Di Hao villa, no one treated her like a young mistress.

"Fine, Kilostar." Cheng Qiao Lan uncomfortably shouted.

"..."

Inside the luxurious office, Xiao Yueze stood in front of a tall window that overlooked the endless skyscraper. The floor where his office was located was the tallest floor in Z City, and one could see the scenery of Z City from here.

Xiao Yueze used his phone to listen to Sis Xian's report on the situation in the villa. When he heard that Xia Qianxing was helping people wash their clothes, his handsome eyebrows knitted together.

Was that woman too free? He actually had the free time to help others? Thinking of this, Xiao Yueze gave his sister-in-law an order, "Continue to increase the workload, don't allow her to rest."

After putting down the phone, a layer of dark clouds appeared in Xiao Yueze's eyes. Xia Qianxing, I don't care if you did it on purpose or not, in the end, you couldn't get rid of the fact that Ruoxi was killed.

Xiao Yueze walked in front of the desk and picked up the photo frame. Inside the photo frame, a young and pretty girl was standing in a sea of roses. The breeze gently blew her hair, and her bright smile was as brilliant as the rose beside her.

The Xiao family and the Yan family were old friends. Xiao Yueze and the Yan family had been engaged since he was born, and Xiao Yueze and Yan Ruoxue were childhood friends.

It wasn't easy for him to reach the age where they could talk about marriage. He thought that he would be able to marry Yan Ruoxue after she had finished university, and there would be another year before he could marry her.

Since Xia Qianxing had ruined his happiness, he wouldn't let her off so easily either!

In the villa, after Xia Qianxing helped Cheng Qianxin dry her clothes, she went to the kitchen to get some food to eat, "Qianxing, come quickly and eat something."

Xia Qianxing hadn't eaten since morning, so he was already hungry to the point of sticking his chest to his back. After receiving Qiao Lan's food, Xia Qianxing ignored his image and began to eat in large bites.

"Kilostar, eat slower. Everyone will fight with you for it." Cheng Qiao Lan was afraid that Xia Qianxing would choke as she hurriedly said.

"Da Da Da ~"

With the sound of footsteps, Xia Qianxing stopped eating the rice. She quickly put the unfinished meal back in its place and then put it away. Under Cheng Qiulan's surprised gaze, she wiped her mouth.

"Miss Xia." Just as she finished doing all this, Sis Xian walked over.

This morning, Xiao Yueze said he wouldn't let her eat. It would be bad if his sister-in-law found out that she was stealing food from him.

As for Cheng Qiulan, she didn't know about this matter, so she looked at Xia Qianxing with shock. She stupidly asked, "Qianxing, what are you doing?"

"Shh ~" Xia Qianxing secretly put a finger to her lips, hinting Cheng Qiulan not to ask.

"Sister-in-law." When Cheng Qiulan saw her sister-in-law, she obediently called out to her.

But the Sage Sister-in-Law didn't even look at Cheng Qiulan, coldly staring at Xia Qianxing. She wanted to see something from her face, but what made her disappointed was that Xia Qianxing had always been looking at her with an indifferent expression.

"Qiao Lan, did you wash the clothes I asked you to wash yourself?" Sister-in-law's cold eyes swept through the process of Qiaolan's eyes.

"I …" Cheng Qiao Lan didn't expect that she would be discovered so quickly by her sister-in-law. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should speak the truth or not.

Xia Qianxing guessed that her sister-in-law must have discovered something. She stood up and said, "Sis, Qiao Lan's hand was injured, so I helped her wash it."

"Miss Xia, don't forget that you haven't finished your work. Since you have so much time, please continue cutting the flowers until the young master says that you can stop."

Xia Qianxing widened her eyes in shock. If she really had to wait until Xiao Yueze said he would stop, then how many years would she have to wait?

"You're still not leaving? Have you finished your work? " The moment that Sage Sister-in-Law turned her head, she saw Cheng Qiao Lan still standing motionlessly on the spot. Immediately, she raised her eyebrows in displeasure and glared at Cheng Qiao Lan.

Cheng Qiulan was so scared that her neck shrunk back. She stole a glance at Xia Qianxing and then quickly left.

As for Xia Qianxing, she picked up her scissors and continued pruning the leaves. Since Xiao Yueze intended to torture her, the more she couldn't fall down. This was because even if she fell down, she wouldn't gain the slightest bit of sympathy from him.

Sister Xian watched for a while and confirmed that Xia Qianxing was not slacking off before she left.
