As soon as he had taken a few steps down the hall, the Miss from the room ran out to chase him. âI want you to apologise to this Miss! What, you were daring enough to look, but not enough to admit it?â
The air around Pei Qianhao became cold. âMiss, itâs useless playing cat and mouse with me. If you keep pestering me, then you are just being unappreciative.â
When the woman heard this, she became enraged. âHow dare you! I canât believe there are people like you in this world! Do you really call yourself a man?!â The woman raised her foot and was ready to kick Pei Qianhao.
Pei Qianhao easily dodged before giving her a cold glance, not sparing her another thought before heading towards the stairs. That damn Su Xi-er, where is she!
The shop assistant saw that Pei Qianhaoâs expression was poor, and ran forward to receive him. Before he could speak, however, he was silenced by the latterâs gaze.
Pei Qianhao directly left Flowers Arrive Inn, watching as an imperial guard from the Prince Hao Residence came up to him before softly saying, âReporting to Prince Hao, Su Xi-er hasnât returned yet.â
Pei Qianhao didnât say anything and snorted to himself. How audacious. If I donât punish her, she will become too cocky.
âPrince Hao, Su Xi-er will be back. Why not wait at the Flowers Arrive Inn?â The imperial guard bravely suggested and observed Prince Haoâs expression carefully.
Sigh, Su Xi-er made Prince Hao unhappy again.
However, the woman donned in the goose yellow dress chose this moment to run down the stairs and stop in front of Pei Qianhao.
âYou, hurry and apologise to this Miss.â The womanâs tone was arrogant, lacking any sort of fear.
The expression of the imperial guard immediately changed. He solemnly barked, âImpudent!â
The woman raised her hand and patted her chest on purpose. âOh I am going to be frightened to death. What, you wonât apologise and asked this dog next to you bite me instead?â
Pei Qianhao glanced at her and instructed his imperial guard. âIâll leave this to you.â After he finished, he left the inn.
When the woman saw this, she was immediately started to chase after him. âYou are a cowardly man. You saw this Missâ body and left without even apologising!â
The imperial guardâs eye twitched when he heard this. Prince Hao looked at this young ladyâs body? It canât be?
The imperial guard looked at the woman carefully. Tsk tsk, she is not as beautiful as Su Xi-er, nor does she have Su Xi-erâs bright eyes. If Prince Hao wanted to see anyoneâs body, it would be Su Xi-erâs.
When the woman saw the imperial guardâs gaze on her, she snorted. âIf you keep looking, this Miss will gouge out your dog eyes!â
âMiss, my master is not someone you can offend. Please restrain yourself. You look like a woman who isnât married yet. Isnât it shameful to shout so loudly that your body was seen by a man?â
The imperial guardâs words had completely enraged the woman. She raised her foot and violently stepped down on the guardâs instep. âIf your master doesnât feel ashamed, then why should I? I will get even with him.â
The guard didnât dare to let her leave, and immediately drew his sword to block her. âPlease be careful. I have been ordered to block you, whether you are alive or dead. I will not go easy on you.â
âHmph, are there are no rules anymore? Do you know who I am?â The womanâs eyes became cold with a heroic appearance.
âNo matter who you are, I will use my blade freely if you keep pestering my master.â
âYou!â The woman was so enraged that she became speechless, though she could do nothing but bottle up her anger inside.
I, Mei Jinxiu, have operated the drug store for many years. Not only that, my family is from a long line of doctors with a reputation in Nanzhao, and I am known as this generationâs female miracle doctor. I have always been raffish toward others since, according to the teachings of the Mei family, if any part of my body was seen by a man after I became an adult, even if itâs just the shoulders, they must take responsibility and marry me.
Since that man saw my body, I am his in this lifetime.
