C12 Falling Behind

"Do you know what it means to be punctual?!" Lin Xuetong did not even get close before she angrily shouted at Lin Xuemo, "I clearly said that I will let you come to Purple Bamboo Pavilion in three quarters of an hour. Take a look at what time it is now?"

"I heard that the notice is in five quarters of an hour. It is just the right time for me to rush over. " Lin Xuemo would not stand there and let Lin Xuetong scold her.

"You actually dare to talk back!" Lin Xuetong's anger immediately rose. "Yesterday they said that you hit Mei Zhu, but I didn't believe it. I didn't think that you were really arrogant. "

"I didn't say anything back. I received the notice that it was already half past the hour. Can't I just defend myself?" Lin Xuemo said lightly.

" Don't you know that the time has already changed? Mother asked everyone to wait in the front hall!" Lin Xuetong stared at Lin Xuemo.

This morning, Madame Wei changed her mind. She asked all the females to wait in the front hall in advance. However, Lin Xuetong deliberately intercepted the person who went to the first branch family to inform and wanted Lin Xuemo to be scolded in front of everyone.

"So you guys have changed the time. It's just that no one told me about this from the beginning to the end. " Lin Xuemo said calmly.

Lin Xuetong looked at Lin Xuemo's indifferent expression and immediately felt powerless.

She coldly snorted. "What do you mean now? Do you want to blame us for not informing you properly? You should reflect on yourself. Why does everyone know that the time has been changed, and only you don't know? "

Lin Xuemo saw Lin Xuetong deliberately looking for trouble and she could not help but laugh in her heart.

She did not want to welcome this distinguished guest from Lin Mansion at all. Lin Xuemo thought for the entire morning and could not think of an excuse to be absent. It seemed that Lin Xuetong could help her with this.

"Also! Even if the time did not change, you did not come to Purple Bamboo Pavilion in advance. Have you ever respected my mother? Are you trying to intimidate our first branch family?" Lin Xuetong was getting more and more angry.

Lin Xuemo was too lazy to bother with her and turned around to walk in the opposite direction.

"Lin Xuemo, stop right there!"

Being ignored by Lin Xuemo, how could Lin Xuetong tolerate it? She rushed forward and pulled Lin Xuemo back.

"I haven't even finished speaking. Where do you want to go?"

"Didn't you say that we would meet in the front hall at quarter hour? Now that both of us are late, shouldn't we hurry to the front hall?" Lin Xuemo said.

Lin Xuetong was speechless by Lin Xuemo.

Lin Xuetong had admired King Qi for a long time. This time when King Qi came to Lin Mansion, Lin Xuetong would not let go of such a good opportunity.

Early in the morning, she began to wash up and dress up. She had to appear in front of King Qi in the most perfect manner.

However, she accidentally delayed her time. She relied on Madame Wei being her mother and ignored the notice's time.

Furthermore, King Qi would not come so early. Lin Xuetong did not want to wait in the front hall.

Of course, Lin Xuetong would definitely not admit that she was late in front of Lin Xuemo.

But there was one thing Lin Xuemo said right. Now that the time was a little tight, she had to hurry to the front hall.

Lin Xuetong coughed dryly.

"Are you educated or not? I am older than you. How can you swagger in front of me like this?"

Lin Xuetong avoided the topic of being late. But she still did not give Lin Xuemo any face.

"You do not know the rules at all!"

Lin Xuetong grabbed Lin Xuemo's wrist and pulled backwards, pushing Lin Xuemo behind her back.

This time Lin Xuemo did not argue with Lin Xuetong and did not even bother with Lin Xuetong's words.

Lin Xuemo had a very understanding of the rules and stood where she was, letting Lin Xuetong walk first.

Lin Xuetong was very satisfied with Lin Xuemo's sensibility. She gave Lin Xuemo a contemptuous glance and turned around to leave first.

But it was this glance that caused Lin Xuetong's expression to change indeterminately.

She sized Lin Xuemo up and down and that gaze seemed to want to tear Lin Xuemo apart.

Lin Xuemo had long guessed that Lin Xuetong would not let her off so easily. Facing Lin Xuetong's gaze that was filled with hatred, Lin Xuemo pretended to not know anything and quietly waited for Lin Xuetong to make a move.

Today Lin Xuemo was dressed very plainly. She was wearing a long yellow brocade dress and there was not a single extra pattern on the dress and there was only a simple hairstyle on her head.

Although Madame Wei had prepared Lin Xuemo's clothes, this dress was very plain.

The yellow brocade looked like dirt and the style of the clothes was also the same as a few years ago. It was already outdated.

However, it was this worn-out set of clothes that made Lin Xuemo feel elegant and elegant when she wore it. It was as if she was a fairy that walked out of a painting, giving off an otherworldly feeling.

To be honest, Lin Xuetong did not take a fancy to Lin Xuemo's clothes at all.

Lin Xuetong could be considered the publicly acknowledged beauty of Azure Dragon Kingdom. She had always been very confident in her appearance. However, when Lin Xuetong stood by Lin Xuemo's side, not only did Lin Xuetong not suppress Lin Xuemo, she even felt that she was inferior to Lin Xuemo.

In front of King Qi, Lin Xuetong would definitely not allow anyone to be more beautiful than her!

She must not let this bastard go to the hall!

For a moment, this was the only thought in Lin Xuetong's mind.

"Xuemo!"

Lin Xuetong's uncertain face suddenly revealed a bright smile.

She intimately walked to Lin Xuemo's side. Just like the two of them were very close sisters, she pulled Lin Xuemo's hand.

Lin Xuemo raised her eyebrows and did not shake off Lin Xuetong's hand.

She knew very well what Lin Xuetong was thinking. From the way Lin Xuetong looked at her, she knew that Lin Xuetong did not wish for her to appear in the hall.

Lin Xuetong had spent a lot of effort to dress up early in the morning and even did not hesitate to be late. Her goal was King Qi.

Lin Xuetong had such thoughts and naturally could not tolerate Lin Xuemo.

Originally, Lin Xuemo did not want to see Ye Qixuan. It was just that she did not have any status in the first branch family where Lin Xuemo was. No matter what reason she used to reject this kind of thing, she would still be put in a difficult position by the second branch family.

Lin Xuemo herself could not find an excuse to not go, but if it was the second branch family's Lin Xuetong who did not wish for her to appear, then it would be another kind of situation.
