“Yes, Miss.” The young maidservant, who was holding the zither, looked up at the purple-clothed beauty with a gaze that exuded a strange respect as well as an inprehensible adoration.
Xu’er felt that it seemed to be a bit perverted for one girl to look at another girl with this kind of gaze, and she involuntarily shuddered.
“From the air that these two young ladies carry, they must be wealthy and respectable people. There are good and bad people mixed up here, so please be careful.” The purple-clothed beauty gazed at them gently.
Xu’er’s small face reddened for no reason, and she replied with a nod, “Many thanks for Miss’s reminder.”
“You are from the capital? Could I ask which family’s miss you are? I seem to not have seen you before.” A hint of puzzlement passed through Yi’an’s eyes.
Her astonishment came as no surprise. After all, this kind of beauty should be famous throughout the capital and not be unknown to the public.
“Humph, our miss is Young Madam Xin of Beijing Manor. Why aren’t you two people stepping aside already, don’t block the way! What are you doing here asking about this and that?” Servant girl Baoyan gave a harrumph.
“Beijing Manor?” Yi’an was taken aback. “Could it be? The Beijing Manor within Cuiwei Mountain’s Sorrowless Valley?”
The purple-clothed beauty nodded as she slowly revealed a transcendent smile.
Even as a female, Yi’an felt that this young lady before her was beautiful beyond belief.
Perhaps her facial features were not as outstanding as that stoic-faced young crown prince consort, but the untainted, unworldly air about this woman pelled people to yearn for it.
“So it is Beijing Manor’s Young Madam. Greetings.” Yi’an spoke with a faint smile.
She understood that the more friends you had, the more options you would have in life. No matter if it be the family members of officials in the royal court or people of the pugilistic world, there was nothing wrong with knowing more people.
“Humph, don’t try to be chumming up with us.” Baoyan stood in front of the purple-clothed beauty. “You’ve said and asked what you needed to, yet you’re still not leaving?”
After exchanging a helpless look with Xu’er, Yi’an shook her head with a smile. “Why are you little lass so unamenable to reason.”
“Humph! Don’t think that I don’t know what you are planning! I’m telling you, don’t you entertain designs on my miss…”
“Baoyan!” The purple-clothed beauty knitted her brows. “What nonsense are you saying? You must not be rude.”
“Miss.”
“As I haven’t left the valley in a long time, it is rare for me to meet two friends whom I get along with and wish to chat with more. This isn’t an excessive request, right.” The purple-clothed beauty stated coldly while staring at Baoyan.
“Yes.” Baoyan frowned before stomping her feet and retreating back behind her slowly. She then suppressed the wispy cold light that flitted across the depths of her eyes.
“I have reserved a private box on the second floor. If you are willing, how about sitting with us?”
When she looked at you with such an entreating gaze, even if you were made out of rock or wood, you couldn’t bear to deny her wish.
Yi’an pondered for a moment. When she thought about how she hadn’t been able to reserve a private box today, it was nice that there was now someone inviting her into one.
Consequently, she nodded and said with a smile, “Thank you.”
The purple-clothed beauty seemed to be very happy, and she gestured with a flick of her sleeve. “Please.”
As Baoyan followed behind the three people, her small mouth covertly pursed into a snicker.
These two women really were fools!
It really was too hilarious. They were thinking of befriending Beijing Manor when they couldn’t even distinguish their young master’s gender.
If it weren’t for the fact that their young master thought that these two people were still a bit useful…
Ha ha. Then they really wouldn’t pay this pair of foolish master and servant any attention.
