C17 Her Reputation! Her Reputation! Her Reputation! Her Name! Her Name! Her Reputation! Her Reputati
Yunhua felt wronged, and Jing'an was deeply concerned, but at that moment, no one paid them any attention. The Xie family wasn't afraid of them, and with the Xie family backing her, Jiuge didn't need to take them seriously.
Xie Xuan had an asthma attack and choked on a pill, temporarily losing his breath. Although the pill was removed, it didn't mean he could breathe again. Jiuge didn't waste time explaining to the Xie family; she immediately began performing CPR on Xie Xuan.
"Stop..." A servant instinctively tried to intervene as Jiuge relentlessly struck Xie Xuan, but a burly man held him back. "Trust Miss Chu."
Their young master had stopped breathing, and at this point, they didn't care how much Jiuge tried to revive him, as long as she succeeded. Of course, if she failed...
Jiuge was in big trouble.
Performing CPR was exhausting for Jiuge, and it required skill. She couldn't let anyone else take over; she had to do it herself, one compression at a time. After several attempts, Jiuge was slightly out of breath, yet Xie Xuan showed no signs of recovery. The Xie family was anxious but didn't dare rush her. In their eyes, urging her wouldn't help; Jiuge hadn't declared their young master beyond saving, so they waited.
Yunhua, however, seized the chance to criticize Jiuge: "You claim you can save the Third Young Master, but you're just a fraud, taking advantage of him. Jiuge, even if the Third Young Master has passed, his body shouldn't be defiled by you. What you're doing is disrespecting him, and you're disturbing his peace."
"Shut up!" It wasn't Jiuge who told Yunhua to be quiet, but the Xie family. They knew their young master wasn't breathing, but...
Jiuge said there was still hope, right? If there was hope, it meant their young master could still be saved. They were willing to take that chance, but this young lady from the Yuen family kept talking about him being gone and referring to his body, which was unbearable for them.
"Don't be fooled by Jiuge; she's a master at putting on a show. You wouldn't believe the love letter she wrote to Jing'an—it's so explicit and disgusting. If you saw it, you'd never be deceived by her again," Yunhua ranted, ignoring Xiao Jing'an's attempts to stop her as she revealed the story of Jiuge's love letter to him.
The Xie family remained silent, unaware of this matter and thus unable to judge it fairly.
Yunhua, however, assumed the Xie family believed her and went on to recount how Jiuge had tried to elope with Xiao Jing'an. Despite his repeated attempts to intervene, Xiao Jing'an felt increasingly uncomfortable. He disliked—no, he despised—Jiuge, but he had never intended to expose her private actions in public, as it went against his principles.
Meanwhile, Jiuge had just finished performing CPR on Xie Xuan, confident that he was out of danger. Hearing Yunhua's self-righteous accusations, Jiuge chuckled.
"Miss Yuen, you keep insisting that the Third Young Master is gone. What if I manage to save him?" Jiuge laid a trap, and Yunhua fell right into it without hesitation. "If you can save him, I'll kneel and apologize to you. If you..."
"Alright, Miss Yuen, watch closely..." Jiuge interrupted Yunhua, not needing to hear the rest. She was determined to revive the Third Young Master Xie and make Yunhua kneel and apologize.
