Chapter 1088: Chapter 1085: Accident
“Ah, I wanted to go back to eat,” Zhao Qingqing pouted, almost hugging Mrs. Luo and acting coquettishly.
But Mrs. Luo was very stubborn. When the lady gave an order, even if the young miss acted coquettishly, she would not ply.
At that moment, a maidservant from the Lin residence brought over some tea, “Miss Zhao, the adjacent room next door has been tidied up. If the young miss needs to change her clothes, feel free to go.”
“Mm, I know,” Zhao Qingqing nodded nonchalantly. Unable to eat the delicacies, she simply turned to drinking the tea.
After drinking the tea, Zhao Qingqing inexplicably felt a bit hot all over.
With a snap.
“Why is it so noisy outside?” Mrs. Luo heard the noise, furrowed her brows, and asked standing at the door.
Zhao family’s maidservant quickly grabbed the maidservant from the Lin residence and asked, “What happened?”
“I heard there is some motion in the courtyard nearby, they say there’s a guest…” The maidservant hesitated to continue.
Mrs. Luo walked over, frowned, and asked, “What exactly happened?”
The pressured maidservant’s cheeks flushed even redder, “They say someone is acting indecently.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Luo’s brow furrowed deeply enough to kill a mosquito.
The Lin residence has bee such a mess!
“Everyone e over, surround the room,” Mrs. Luo made a decisive decision. After giving the order, she entered the room, but upon seeing the situation inside, her heart skipped a beat. She dashed in and pulled Zhao Qingqing’s opened collar closed, “Young Miss, young miss, what’s wrong with you?”
“Mrs. Luo, I am hot…” Zhao Qingqing was cherished and protected by the Zhao family, usually low-profile, undisturbed by others’ schemes. Suddenly, she was caught off guard by the Indecent Medicine, her movements became soft and weak, her cheeks flushed, her forehead slightly sweaty.
Mrs. Luo was furious. In just a moment’s turn, her own young miss had been promised. She fiercely glanced at the teacup, gritted her teeth, picked up Zhao Qingqing, and planned to leave immediately.
The boldness of Lin residence!
She knew this was not the time for accountability; the most important thing was to protect Zhao Qingqing as they left the Lin residence, or to hide in the room until the effects of the drug passed. She must not let outsiders see her in this state.
Considering the distance from the Lin residence to Zhao family’s home, it seemed safer to stay visibly in the Lin residence.
Just as she was instructing the maidservant to fetch some cold water, the noise outside grew closer.
The voices outside clamored louder, “Catch the thieves…”
Hearing that, it seemed they were heading this way. Mrs. Luo’s face darkened; now, staying was no longer an option.
She found a cloak, embraced Zhao Qingqing in her arms, “Red Dates, Sesame, you go block the ining people. Cherry, and Bamboo Shoot e with me to escort the lady home!”
“Mung Bean, go tell the lady, the young miss has had an accident.” These maidservants, named after foods Zhao Qingqing liked, were all close to her.
After giving the orders, Mrs. Luo quickly left the guest room with Zhao Qingqing in her arms.
On this side,
It hadn’t been long since Zhao Qingqing left when Madam Lin suggested everyone take a walk in the garden.
Ye Muyu followed Madam Zhao at an unhurried pace along with the crowd.
And not long after, they heard clamoring noises.
“What happened?” Madam Lin scolded, and the servant boy who bumped into her fell to the ground with a thud, “Madam, spare my life.”
“Speak quickly, what is this behavior!” Madam Lin said sternly, and the servant boy stammered, “A thief has entered the residence.”
“What?”
This news caused a motion among the female family members.
“Something has happened at the Liuyun Pavilion.”
Soon after, another maidservant came over, trembling as she reported.
Madam Lin’s face was outraged.
