The Physicist Wife Who Overturned The World

In the Nanling Empire, within the Duke’s estate, a young and beautiful woman was trimming flowers in her room.

Her personal maid suddenly ran in and said in a panic, “Miss, bad news! Xue Fanxin is back!”

When the woman heard this news, she suddenly couldn’t control the strength of the scissors in her hand and cut the fine flowers into pieces.
Her expression was extremely ugly, and she was shocked.
She asked in disbelief, “How is this possible? She didn’t die after falling from such a high cliff?

“Xiao Tao, are you mistaken? How could Xue Fanxin not be dead?”

This woman was Li Yaoyao, the girl who had deceived Xue Fanxin into going to Tian Huang Mountain and pushed her off the cliff.
She was the cousin that had been sent to live at the Duke’s estate.

The maidservant, Xiao Tao, was a confidant who had followed her into the Duke’s estate.
Here, Xiao Tao was the only person she could trust.

“Miss, I’ve confirmed over and over again that Xue Fanxin is really not dead.
She isn’t even hurt at all.
She’s currently eating with the Duke!”

Li Yaoyao was so frightened that her face went pale.
The scissors in her hand fell to the ground, and she swayed unsteadily, almost losing her balance.

She had finally deceived Xue Fanxin into going to Tian Huang Mountain under the Duke’s nose, and then she had gone all out to push her down the cliff.

In the end, Xue Fanxin had not died but returned.
In fact, she was unscathed.
This news was devastating to her.

If the Duke knew that she was the one who had pushed Xue Fanxin off the cliff, would she still be able to remain as a Young Miss of the Duke’s estate?

That would be impossible.

“Xiao Tao, did Xue Fanxin say anything in front of the Duke?” Li Yaoyao asked in a panic.

“I don’t know, but I heard that the Duke is in a very good mood and is talking and laughing with Xue Fanxin.”

“In a very good mood? Talking and laughing?”

If the Duke knew that she was the one who had pushed Xue Fanxin off the cliff, the first thing he would do after returning to the estate would be to settle scores with her.
He definitely wouldn’t be in such a good mood.

Had Xue Fanxin not told anyone that she had pushed her off the cliff?

Right, Xue Fanxin was stupid and silly.
Even if she had been wronged, she did not know how to explain it.
What was she panicking about?

Li Yaoyao adjusted her mindset and calmed herself down.
After taking a deep breath, she said, “Xiao Tao, invite Young Master Yi Tian to the hall.
Tell him that the Duke is looking for him.”

“Miss, what do you want to do?” Xiao Tao asked uneasily.
For some reason, she had a premonition as if something bad was about to happen.

“Xue Fanxin likes Yi Tian, and Yi Tian likes me.
Duke Zhenguo appreciates Yi Tian and practically treats him as his adopted son.
As long as Yi Tian is around, Xue Fanxin will be even more gullible.
Even if she comes back alive, I have a way to make her swallow this matter and never tell anyone.”

Xue Fanxin was dumb and a useless person who could not cultivate.
Why did she receive all of the Duke’s doting?

As for her, Li Yaoyao, she was naturally beautiful and had excellent talent.
However, she was an orphan who had no choice but to live under someone else’s roof in the Duke’s estate.

If she could obtain half of the Duke’s love, she would have long risen to prominence.
Why would she need to hole up in her room every day to raise flowers?

If Xue Fanxin died, maybe the Duke would turn his attention to her.
Then…

But Xue Fanxin was lucky.
She didn’t die even after falling from such a high cliff…

It didn’t matter though.
Xue Fanxin was very stupid anyway.
If she couldn’t kill her this time, she could continue next time.

What Li Yaoyao didn’t know was that from now on, she would never have such a chance again.
