Although Dongfang Wan had been ill for more than 10 years, her ears had never been affected. She could still hear what those people were saying clearly.

Madam Xiang? The woman who met Pei Qinghan petted since childhood? The slut who secretly hooked up with Pei Qinghan while she was pregnant?

She didn’t expect that a lowly concubine will claim herself as the main wife outside. She really knows how to make people laugh.

Bai Zhi asked Dongfang Wan in a low voice: “Niang, who is this Madam Xiang?”

Dongfang Wan coldly smiled, but her face still looked bright: “She is Concubine Xiang of Changyuan Houfu. She has been in charge of Houfu since I got sick. All my dowry maidservant died in her hands. Since I got ill, I didn’t have an intention to argue with her. And now that I want to divorce Pei Qinghan, I didn’t want to entangle with her. However, since I stumbled with her today, I might as well talk about her this old account.”

Bai Zhi was heartbroken, she held Dongfang Wan’s hand in distress. She had suffered in Houfu for so many years. How can she compare her experiences to her? At least she had a good body, can eat and sleep well.

Dongfang Wan shook her head and chuckled: “It’s okay. It’s all over.”

The staff led them to the largest VIP room on the second floor. They have a large number, plus the surname Dongfang naturally has to enter the largest VIP room.

However, before they arrive at the largest VIP room, they had to pass all the small and medium VIP rooms. Among them was the room where Concubine Zhang and Bai Zhenzhu were staying.

Dongfang Wan deliberately slowed down her pace and stopped in front of every closed VIP room to listen to the voices inside.

When she reached the fifth room, she stopped and didn’t move anymore. She turned to the staff, who was leading the way and said: “Open the door.”

The staff was embarrassed: “Miss Dongfang, there are already people here. Let’s change to another one.”

Dongfang Wan slightly smiled: “I know the people inside, so just open it.”

Of course, he knew that they knew each other. The person inside was Concubine Xiang, and this lady in front of him was the main wife of Changyuan Houfu. It’s not unusual for them to know each other.

It’s just that if these two meet and fight, things will be troublesome.

Seeing that the staff refused to open the door, Cui’er stepped forward and pushed the door open.

Concubine Xiang was holding a piece of fabric and trying to see if it fits Pei Xiachen’s body. Bai Zhenzhu was also holding a piece of bright-colored fabric and trying to see if it fits her.

As soon as the door opened, Concubine Xiang’s face immediately sank: “Who is so unruly?”

Cui’er stepped forward and looked at Concubine Xiang wit cold eyes, then said loudly: “Madam is here, if not, why should I come here to see you?”

Madam? Which Madam? Concubine Xiang was shocked. Why was this Cui’er here today? Isn’t she supposed to take care of that sickly lady?

Dongfang Wan walked slowly, her clear and beautiful eyes fell on Concubine Xiang’s stupefied face: “What? You haven’t seen me only just a month, but you can no longer recognize me?”

Concubine Xiang was dumbfounded. Is this Dongfang Wan in front of her the Dongfang Wan she knew? Her pale and thin face was now full and blushing. Her complexion was so good that she couldn’t believe it was the same Dongfang Wan she saw a month ago.

“What are you standing there in a daze? Why aren’t you paying respect when you’ve seen milady?” Cui’er straightened her back and yelled to Concubine Xiang.

Concubine Xiang frowned. Pay respect? How long has it been since she paid respect to Dongfang Wan?
