The matter never got out.
She also believed that the two of them would never spread such unfounded misunderstandings.
Over five years ago, even if Chang Haotian liked her and pursued her to Longwan Town, there was no evidence for the many rumors.
Just like Gongsun Qianru, renowned outside, countless people admired her.
Unexpectedly, Chang Haotian spread the rumor that Ye'er was his own flesh and blood.
She had already traced the source of the rumor, which was released from Pear Blossom Villa.
At that time, she shouldn't have used Chang Haotian to make the third brother give up hope; she apologized to him then and explained that there couldn't be any entanglement between them.
Since she shouldn't have dragged Master Chang into this, making him take the blame in front of the third brother, she didn't hold him accountable even though she knew he spread the rumor.
Everyone makes mistakes in life, and recognizing them and returning to the right path is good.
