Ghostly Masked Prince Xiao: Pampering and Spoiling the Little Adorable Consort

(73) Venting Anger for Her Awesomely

The sunlight peeked into the room and those threads of light landed on Chu Qing-Yan's delicate face. She was gradually disturbed by those warm rays of sun that finally woke her up. She slowly opened her eyes. She didn't know how she ended up falling asleep in Xiao Xu's arms last night, she only felt that the embrace was warm and had a fatherly feel.

Xi Ning heard the movements inside and she walked in with a smile. She even carried a washbowl in her hand. "Master, you woke up."

Chu Qing-Yan stretched lazily, trying her best not to touch that injured foot as she slowly sat up.

"It's already this late, why didn't you call me?"

"His Highness had instructed to let you sleep until you woke up naturally. How could this servant dare to disturb your sweet dreams?" Xi Ning had followed Chu Qing-Yan for so long that she wasn't speaking like a yes-man as before. Not only did she had the lively innocence that she should have at her age, she even learned Chu Qing-Yan's little two-face behavior.

Chu Qing-Yan shook her head, this was the so called 'it takes three years to build a good character but just three days to be corrupted by bad example'. Looks like she had the potential to teach people, at least she had succeeded in transforming Xi Ning.

Just after she finished washing her face and rinsed her mouth, Chu Qing-Yan raised her head and saw Hong Yi smiling faintly as she entered as if it was her right. Hong Yi gave people the feeling of being warm and ladylike, but she also handled matters neat and tidily. Chu Qing-Yan felt that if she wasn't in charge of the back courtyard, perhaps it would've already become a complete mess.

Chu Qing-Yan was just about to smile at her when she saw there was still a purple dressed servant maid that followed behind her.

She was petite and had a peach shaped face, about 14 or 15 years of age, Chu Qing-Yan had never seen her before.

Hong Yi walked to in front of her and bent down slightly. "Hong Yi pays her respects to Ninth Miss Chu, this is the servant that His Highness has ordered me to arrange for you, Zi Yi." After she finished speaking, she used a meaningful glance to indicate that the person should pay her respects to Chu Qing-Yan.

Chu Qing-Yan then recalled that last night Xiao Xu had indeed said he would arrange another servant for her. She didn't expect it would be this quick!

Zi Yi originally didn't want to come and wait upon Chu Qing-Yan, but seeing Hong Yi's hint, she somewhat unwillingly lowered her head and said half-heartedly. "Zi Yi pays her respect to Ninth Miss Chu."

Chu Qing-Yan did not miss the dissatisfaction this person felt towards her, she didn't know where she had offended her. This was the first time seeing her, but Chu Qing-Yan could already feel that this person was not someone easy to get along with. However, since the person had already been arranged, she still needed to maintain a polite appearance on the surface. Moreover, at this time, she was still a little Miss who was not well-versed in the affairs of the world. As a result, she cutely smiled. "Older Sister Zi Yi is too polite!"

When Zi Yi heard this, her lips curled, and in a stinging tone full of gun powder and sticks, she said. "Zi Yi absolutely dares not accept Ninth Miss Chu's call of Older Sister Zi Yi. You are the master and this slave is the servant. The Prince Ying's manor isn't just any average family and household. Rules that the manor should have still exists, only those who come from small insignificant families would call sisters between masters and servants. Although you are still young, I still hope you can pay attention to your words and manners in the future. Otherwise if this spreads out, the person losing face is still my family's Highness."

She only said one sentence and she returned with mockery and ridicule, Chu Qing-Yan thought that this proud and arrogant Zi Yi before her was really gifted with gab.
