Chapter 553: Chapter 553: Republic of China Gentlewoman Divorced Wife VS Amorous Actor (Part 7)
Likely as Shiao Shiao, who had served her master from a young age, had never seen blood in her life.
She was quite frightened.
Gu Shengyin comforted her, “I’m fine, don’t worry about .”
She continued helplessly, “It seems that we cannot have the big al I promised you. In my current state, I’m afraid no place would dare let in.”
Indeed, in these troubled tis, no one would dare to let soone covered in blood enter, even if that person appeared to be a frail woman.
“Excuse , miss.” A hesitant voice called out from behind them.
It was the madam who had her bag stolen earlier.
Gu Shengyin turned her head, having been too far away earlier to see clearly. Now, upon a closer look, she understood why that man had targeted this madam.
The madam was about thirty years old, dressed in a jade-green cheongsam, and draped in a pure white fur stole.
Jade green is a challenging color that can easily make one look dull and colorless.
But clearly, this madam had no such trouble.
Her complexion was fair, and her well-maintained face showed not a single fine line. The jade-green cheongsam she wore further accentuated her elegance and youthfulness.
Looking at her, her thumb-sized pearl necklace and the green jade ring on her hand all spoke of her affluent life.
This was a madam who knew how to dress well and lived a prosperous life.
The mont the madam saw Gu Shengyin, she was quietly amazed at her appearance and aura. She wondered when Cloud City had nurtured such a fine young lady; such deanor and grace should not have been unknown to her.
“I thank you for your help earlier,” she clearly saw that it was Gu Shengyin who had tripped the thief, and had almost been retaliated against because of it.
Gu Shengyin politely smiled, “It was nothing, madam. You are too kind.”
She pointed at the bloodstain on herself and smiled apologetically, “With my current appearance, it’s really not appropriate for to stay out too long.”
The madam’s face showed regret, “This was caused on my account, my house is nearby, please co with to change your clothes.”
She smiled again, “Look at , forgetting to introduce myself, my maiden na is Shen, and I’m married to a businessman. We live at 33 Baolin Street nearby.”
Gu Shengyin shook her head, “That would be too much trouble, my ho is not too far from here, I can just go ho and change.”
Seeing Gu Shengyin’s insistence, the madam did not wish to say much more, but had her servant hand over a visiting card, “This is my visiting card, it has my address on it. Should you face any difficulties in the future, feel free to co find .”
Gu Shengyin bowed her head in thanks.
It was a kind gesture from the lady, and to refuse further would be ungracious.
When the servant and master returned ho, Auntie Lin was shocked to see Gu Shengyin’s condition and hastily inquired what had happened.
After hearing Shiao Shiao’s account, Auntie Lin looked at Gu Shengyin with so disapproval, “Oh my lady, was it really sothing a delicate young lady like you should do? These villains are utterly ruthless; what if they had lashed out…”
“Alright, alright, Auntie Lin, please go prepare a bucket of hot water for , I need a good wash to cleanse away this bad luck,” Gu Shengyin interrupted Auntie Lin’s incessant chatter with a smile.
“Yes, yes.” Auntie Lin’s eyes brightened upon hearing this, indeed, it was ti to cleanse away the bad luck.
