Chapter 739: Chapter 739 Lowly Concubine-born Son and Daughter Chapter 739: Chapter 739 Lowly Concubine-born Son and Daughter “Miss Situ, truly extraordinary, even her entrance stands out from the rest.” War Prince Long Rui lightly tapped the table with one hand while propping his chin with the other, jesting as he spoke.

Xuexue glanced at him, retorting sarcastically, “Perhaps there are too many beauties in the Prince’s Mansion, and not enough food, so you have to come to our General’s Mansion every day to mooch meals?”

“Ahahaha…! Miss Situ is really humorous.”

Humorous?

Xuexue meant to say that the joke was so cold it wasn’t funny at all.

In her previous life, War Prince Long Rui never showed up.

In this life, she didn’t know what went wrong, but she kept seeing him frequently.

What made her uneasy was that the involvement of the War Prince was something she couldn’t tell whether it was a good or bad thing; she felt a little afraid of the unknown.

But it didn’t deter her resolve for revenge.

Situ Yongjie, “Xuexue, you mustn’t be disrespectful. It’s our honor to have the War Prince dine in the General’s Mansion.”

Just at that moment, Situ Dieer assisted an utterly frightened Situ Zhi to walk over and took a seat on a stool.

“Eldest sister, Zhizhi is still young, you really shouldn’t scare him. What if he’s terrified out of his wits? He is the only male heir of the Situ Family, and in the future, the General’s Mansion will rely on him.” Situ Dieer’s voice was weak, a pleasure to everyone’s ears.

A glint flashed in Xuexue’s eyes; this Situ Dieer, though seemingly frail and harmless, was actually a formidable character.

As the saying goes, ‘Silent dogs bite the hardest,’ and it refers to people like her.

Xuexue, “Sister Dieer, the way you say it, it’s as if I was deliberately picking a fight. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, it’s clear to see that it was Zhizhi who bumped into me.”

“Even if Zhizhi did bump into you on his own, as the eldest legitimate daughter, you shouldn’t have ridden a tiger around the General’s Mansion; look, you’ve frightened everyone.”

“How dare a lowly concubine-born daughter like you lecture me, the eldest legitimate daughter?” Xuexue’s expression turned cold, and she spoke without giving any face.

Situ Dieer sneaked a glance at Situ Yongjie and, seeing that he had no reaction as if he was agreeing with her being a concubine-born daughter, she felt a surge of inner rage, but her face remained meek, “Eldest sister, you’re right in your reprimand, it is indeed my fault.”

While Situ Zhi continued to cry non-stop, Situ Yongjie, annoyed and unsettled, thought to himself that with the Prince still present, they couldn’t afford to dampen his spirits.

“Dieer, take Zhizhi back to rest.”

“Yes.” Though boiling with fury inside, Situ Dieer calmly assisted Situ Zhi out of the hall.

“Second sister, I haven’t eaten yet, I’m starving.” Just as they stepped out of the hall, Situ Zhi wiped away his tears and said.

“Go back to the courtyard, and have the maid fetch you some food.” While helping him walk, Situ Dieer said, “Zhizhi, remember not to call me ‘second sister’ anymore! Our eldest sister is back, and I’m third in line! Call me ‘third sister’ instead.”

“Why should I refer to that bastard as the eldest sister? I refuse.” Situ Zhi twisted his neck defiantly and spoke angrily.

In his mind, their family was the supreme ruler of the General’s Mansion.

Why should their status as concubine-born sons and daughters become so low just because Xuexue showed up? Just thinking about it made him furious.

“Zhizhi, you need to be obedient. Mother is bedridden and can’t deal with you right now. If something really happens, you are the one who will suffer.”

“I am the only male heir of the General’s Mansion, and I don’t believe that father would have the heart to ignore me,” Situ Zhi said, unconvinced.

“It’s true what you say, but being a little cautious never hurts.”

“Third sister, you’re just too timid; you’re afraid to do anything, which is why mother never consults you about anything and only speaks with our eldest sister.”
