However, things did not go as planned. The sudden appearance of another person in the house still caught Huo Yueshan’s attention. Huo Yueshan waved her hand and looked at Xie Xianyue in the courtyard. She frowned and said, “Are you new here?”

Xie Xianyue turned to look at Huo Yueshan and Xie Yiran after hearing these words. Looking at Xie Xianyue’s innocent look, Xie Yiran really gnashed her teeth in hatred. This girl really knew how to pretend!

In her previous life, she had been fooled by Xie Xianyue into giving up all of her trust. In the end, she ended up like that. According to Xie Xianyue’s last sentence, Huo Yueshan died during childbirth. This matter seemed to have a lot to do with Xie Xianyue!

Xie Yiran wanted to rush forward and tear Xie Xianyue’s face into pieces. However, she also knew that now was not the time, so she could only suppress the anger in her heart.

Xie Xianyue nodded respectfully and looked at Huo Yueshan with a hint of timidity in her eyes. She said, “Yes..”

Huo Yueshan looked at Xie Xianyue’s appearance, which was quite iconic. In addition, Xie Xianyue was clearly the same age as Xie Yiran, but she came to her home to work. She was really puzzled.

Therefore, she smiled and said, “You don’t have to be nervous. But shouldn’t you go to school at your age? Why did you come here to work?”

After hearing Huo Yueshan’s question, Xie Xianyue’s eyes instantly turned red. She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with a pitiful look and she said, “It is due to unforeseen circumstances at home. My parents have passed away. I’m the only one left in the family, so I have to work part-time to study.

“It’s just that I really can’t afford the tuition fees right now…”

Xie Xianyue paused and looked at Huo Yueshan as she sobbed. “But madam, don’t worry. I won’t be affected when I work here.

“If it’s really not possible, I’ll quit school and work here. I can wait until I’ve saved enough money to go to school…”

Everyone present felt sympathy for her, but only Xie Yiran looked at Xie Xianyue with a hint of hatred in her eyes. This girl had always been like this, pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy, yet, she was still acting like this. It was really disgusting!

Xie Yiran pulled Huo Yueshan’s arm and said with a frown, “Mom, you’ve been wandering around the temple for a long time. You must be tired. You should go and rest first.”

What Xie Yiran wanted to do now was to send Huo Yueshan away and find an opportunity to chase Xie Xianyue out.

However, when Huo Yueshan heard Xie Xianyue’s words, her heart was filled with compassion. She looked at Xie Yiran and shook her head, saying, “It’s okay. This child is too pitiful. We should help her…”

Hearing that, Xie Yiran’s heart was burning with anger. She looked at Xie Xianyue and frowned, saying, “Since you know that you can’t take care of your studies and work at the same time, then you shouldn’t just quit school. Even if you have to work, you should find something easier.

“Our family is busy with work. I think you should find another job. That way, you can take care of your work and study.”

Unexpectedly, Xie Xianyue knelt in front of Xie Yiran and Huo Yueshan when she heard that. She looked at Huo Yueshan and cried, “Madam, miss, please don’t chase me away. I won’t delay the work here.”

Her appearance was really heartbreaking. However, in a place that no one had seen, Xie Xianyue’s eyes revealed a trace of viciousness. She had spent a lot of effort to come here.

If she was chased out just like that, it would be a great loss!

As she spoke, the pendant around Xie Xianyue’s neck was revealed as she knelt down.

Xie Yiran’s pupils constricted when she saw the pendant.

In her previous life, Huo Yueshan had adopted Xie Xianyue because of the pendant around her neck. When she saw the pendant on Xie Xianyue’s body appear again, Xie Yiran knew that it was not a coincidence.

She looked at Huo Yueshan anxiously and said, “Mom, let me handle this. You should go back and rest.”

However, she was helpless as Huo Yueshan also saw Xie Xianyue’s pendant.
