Chapter 622: Chapter 620 Design 4_1

Xia Ningxing didn’t even give the other party a glance as she leisurely pulled down the side zipper of her dress.

Very soon...

Xia Ningxing’s skin was as white as snow, as delicate as a freshly peeled egg, and even faintly glowing, a true representation of cold fair skin.

This provoked immense jealousy in Ning Xiaoyou, a woman with a dark and sallow complexion.

What a slut with good skin!

But what of it? She’s still going to die soon!

With this thought, Ning Xiaoyou felt a bit more at peace.

She continued to look.

But...

Where was the birthmark?

Ning Xiaoyou didn’t see what she had hoped to find, and her eyes widened in disbelief.

"Can you see clearly?" Xia Ningxing, who was about half a head taller than Ning Xiaoyou, had a cold smile on her lips.

"Where’s your birthmark!" Ning Xiaoyou, fearing that she might be seeing things, vigorously rubbed her eyes. Then, staring fixedly at her with a ferocious expression, she demanded an answer.

Xia Ningxing scoffed: "Are you sick or something? There’s never been a birthmark on my body."

"But..." that maid had clearly seen a birthmark on your body.

If it weren’t for the last bit of reason she held onto, Ning Xiaoyou almost blurted out the truth.

She hurriedly caught herself.

Xia Ningxing’s expression was coldly beautiful: "But what?"

Ning Xiaoyou certainly wasn’t a fool to tell her herself, and diverted the subject by retorting: "Maybe you washed off the birthmark yourself beforehand!"

"What are you, a mad dog? Biting people randomly?" Xia Ningxing fired back.

"There’s no need to argue, the presumptive family head’s skin shows no signs of any markings having been removed. We can confirm she has never washed off any birthmark," said a few highly respected old women who had spoken after meticulous observation.

All trained in medicine, distinguishing this was very easy for them.

And just like that, even the last shred of hope was gone.

Ning Xiaoyou couldn’t help but tremble as she stepped back.

How could this be!

That maid had clearly said there was a birthmark on Xia Ningxing’s body.

But why was there nothing now?

Had the maid betrayed her?

Impossible!

Ning Xiaoyou immediately dismissed the thought, knowing her own family was on her side; she would never dare to betray her.

So, had Xia Ningxing turned the tables on her?

At the thought of this possibility, Ning Xiaoyou felt a sense of desperation and an impenetrable fear like falling from a great height.

Impossible. Xia Ningxing couldn’t foresee the future. How could she possibly have known about my plan?

Ning Xiaoyou’s mind was in turmoil.

Once they came out, all eyes immediately turned to Xia Ningxing and her group.

"What’s the verdict?"

"Is there a birthmark or not?"

"Is it really as Elder Zhao said?"

Elder Zhao was the old man from before.

Everyone was bombarding them with questions, many eyes filled with anticipation.

After all, there were quite a few people who didn’t want Xia Ningxing to become the family head.

Elder Zhao kept twisting the knife, asserting confidently: "Do we even need to say it? Of course, there is! I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake? Ah, it’s all because I was deluded, I really regret it now..."

While speaking, he patted his head as if filled with extreme remorse.

This expression elicited much envy from many.

If one could win over a peerless beauty like Xia Ningxing, what was there to fret about?

"You old fool, you’re really too wicked, our Xia family head has a spotless body without even a single mole, and yet you dare to slander her here!" several old ladies couldn’t help but rebuke him in unison.

No birthmark?

As soon as he heard these four words, Zhao was dumbfounded and instinctively turned to look at Ning Xiaoyou.

Weren’t there supposed to be a birthmark?

How come there’s suddenly none?

Ning Xiaoyou’s face turned as pale as a sheet, her lips trembling, unable to utter a word.

"Xiaoyou, does she really have no birthmark?" someone couldn’t help but confirm once more with Ning Xiaoyou.

Ning Xiaoyou stiffly turned her neck to look in Xia Ningxing’s direction, wanting to say "yes," but the reality before her left no room for lies, and in the end, she could only despairingly shake her head, "No, there really isn’t one."

She summoned all her strength for each word.

Hiss!

Elder Zhao was utterly staggered.

How come even she said there was none.

The crowd suddenly fell silent.

Since Xia Ningxing had no birthmarks, it meant that Elder Zhao had been slandering her, throwing mud at the presumptive family head.

And Ning Xiaoyou and the others were accomplices.

Ning Xiaoyou, quick-witted, immediately began to scold the still baffled Elder Zhao: "Grandfather Zhao, to think you’re a respected senior traditional doctor in our clan, how could you slander our family head like this!"

Not only did she suddenly change her tune, but so did those who had just come with her to accuse Xia Ningxing of cheating; they all began to retract their words.

"Isn’t that the truth, Elder Zhao, you’re really not a decent man, to stop Xia Ningxing from becoming the family head, you even dare to do such a despicable thing as to slander a girl like this. If you had succeeded, how would she live her life after that?"

"Elder Zhao, this time you’ve really gone too far!"

Elder Zhao was instantly both annoyed and furious.

Dammit, it was clearly a bad idea that everyone had come up with together, why should he alone carry the blame now that things had come to light?

This infuriates me!

Elder Zhao was extremely angry, and not wanting to be the fall guy, was just about to pull everyone else down with him when he received a threat—

"Elder Zhao, since you’ve made a mistake, you should bear the consequences. Just go quietly, and we’ll take good care of your family."

The speaker’s eyes flashed a hint of danger.

Clearly, if you take the blame quietly, your family won’t be touched; otherwise, they’ll have to die too.

Elder Zhao’s rage instantly extinguished.

For the sake of his family, he hung his head low and prostrated on the ground, pleading non-stop: "I was wrong, Family Head, it was out of my unwillingness to see you as the family head that I resorted to this low strategy to slander you. As for Ning Xiaoyou and the others, they believed what I said was true, they came over to call you out in the name of justice, please don’t implicate them..."

"Family Head, we really didn’t know this old man was slandering you, we are also victims!"

"Yes, Family Head, please don’t hold it against us."

"Family Head, it’s all Elder Zhao’s fault, it has nothing to do with us!"

Ning Xiaoyou and the others kept making excuses and proclaiming their innocence.

Xia Ningxing could see clearly that they wanted Elder Zhao to be their scapegoat.

Hah!

Nice try!

If she didn’t round them all up today, she wouldn’t call herself Xia Ningxing!

Xia Ningxing ignored them and simply clapped her hands: "Come in."

As her voice fell, a guard immediately ran in.

Xia Ningxing glanced at him and ordered directly: "Tell everyone the truth about this matter."

"Yes."

The guard nodded and immediately said: "The truth is, Ning Xiaoyou and the others wanted to stop the family head from taking her position, so they came up with this idea to slander her."
