Chapter 987: Chapter 987 War Prince
The procuress stealthily glanced at Zi Xia beside her.
The latter gently shook her head.
Only then did the procuress turn her head back and reply, “Yes.”
Just at this mont, a noisy commotion ca from outside.
“Go outside and see what’s happening; I hope no one’s causing a scene.” Xuexue glanced at Nanny Sun standing by.
“Yes, I’ll go check imdiately.” Nanny Sun turned and strode out.
“It’s getting late; we should leave too. Otherwise, Auntie Tang will start causing trouble again.” Xuexue stood up, ready to leave.
These days, Auntie Tang had been trying to find a handle on her to pull her down from the position of the Legitimate Daughter; she couldn’t give her any opportunities.
Suddenly, a wave of discussion ca from outside, their voices drifting in…
“Oh my god! The War Prince is actually here at Qinger Building to seek pleasure.”
“Exactly, the girls of Qinger Building are in for it this ti.”
“Right! I heard the War Prince’s combat strength is off the charts; he can exhaust over a dozen girls in one night.”
“All these delicate girls, the War Prince really doesn’t know how to be tender and cherish jade, not knowing to take it easy.”
“No kidding! Alas! The girls of Qinger Building are going to suffer big ti!”
Xuexue’s steps froze for a mont, then she sat back down, thinking, how did this Plague God end up here?
That night’s stealthy visit to the War Prince’s Mansion was still vivid in her mory; this infamously disreputable War Prince couldn’t be that simple. Otherwise, with his status second only to one and above tens of thousands, there was no need for him to put on an act.
“Miss, what’s wrong?” Zi Xia was completely puzzled by Xuexue’s behavior and asked.
“It’s nothing, let’s wait a bit longer before leaving.”
She had clearly said earlier that she needed to hurry back to the General’s Mansion to avoid Auntie Tang catching a handle on her, yet now she was in no rush.
Zi Xia was utterly confused, thinking, why did the Miss act like this upon hearing about the War Prince?
That’s right, before the Miss had returned to the General’s Mansion, the War Prince had visited for the first ti and firmly claid that the Miss was his close confidante. Whether that was true or false, Zi Xia had no idea.
“Miss?”
“Hmm?”
“Did you already know the War Prince before you returned to the General’s Mansion?”
Xuexue raised her eyes and looked at her: “Why do you ask such a question?”
“Umm…!”
Zi Xia hesitated, with a look of wanting to inquire but not daring to speak.
“Stop humming and hawing! Just speak your mind, if you have sothing to say, say it!” Since her rebirth, Xuexue hadn’t been as constrained as in her previous life, and she certainly didn’t retain the behavior or deanor characteristic of a well-bred young lady.
“Before you returned to the mansion, the War Prince had once said that you two were close confidantes,” Zi Xia bit the bullet and blurted it all out.
“What?” Xuexue’s eyes widened in shock: “When did this happen, how co I don’t know about it?”
“You hadn’t returned to the mansion at that ti, of course, you didn’t know. And, the Old Master had given a strict order to not let this information leak, so naturally you wouldn’t know.”
So that’s how it was, no wonder Auntie Tang, who usually hates her to the bone, hadn’t dared to reveal a single word.
Apparently, it was her father who had given the strict order.
Xuexue’s eyes shifted, and she stood up: “Let’s go, we’re heading out.”
Having said that, she stepped out.
Zi Xia was stunned for a mont, thinking to herself, didn’t the Miss say we’d go out later? Why is she going out now! The change in attitude was too swift; she found it hard to adapt.
“Hey! Miss, wait for !” Zi Xia hurriedly followed her out.
Without warning, Xuexue ahead suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Zi Xia almost collided with her, narrowly stabilizing herself, and complained in a grieved tone, “Miss, you scared to death. You should at least make a sound when you stop.”
