Wen Xinya stared at the hysterical Ning Shuqian in shock, which she took a while to recover from. "Aunt Ning, I don't intend to harm you or anything. It's just, you asked me for some herbal recipes previously and I was afraid that something might go wrong, so I didn't agree to it. I was afraid that you might mistake me for being uncaring and unwilling to share the recipes. Hence, I suggested that Du Ruo come and take your pulse. But since you don't agree, let's just forget about this."
Wen Xinya hung her head low while placing her trembling hands on her knees and pretended to be extremely aggrieved about being wrongly accused. Ning Shuqian had always been the one who pretended to be innocent while Xia Ruya often pretended to be weak and fragile in front of Old Mr. and Mrs. Wen. It was now time for Wen Xinya to start pretending instead.
Wen Xinya's words made Xia Ruya panic and she instinctively looked at Old Mr. Wen with a look of dejection on her face.
