Chapter 8: [Consort Attack 008] Looking for Trouble

Nan Moyi frowned and turned her head, only to see a woman who had suddenly appeared beside her. The woman wore a brocade shirt of pearl-white soft fur, her hair styled in a cloud-like bun adorned with a phoenix treasure hairpin. Her eyes and brows were filled with the arrogance of a pampered young lady; though she was fresh and beautiful, at first glance, she inspired a sense of loathing.

At this moment, she was playing with a hair ribbon in her hand, smiling at a handsome man beside her. "Brother, do you think this looks good on me?"

Chang Liu knit her brows tightly, looking displeasedly at the woman who had suddenly interjected.

Nan Moyi merely gave her a sidelong glance but said nothing more.

"Eh, bring that hair ribbon over there too, let me have a look." Cheng Caisi glanced at Chang Liu and pointed to a deep blue hair ribbon on the other side.

Hearing this, Chang Liu’s frown deepened, but she did not want to cause trouble for the Princess Consort, so she primly handed the ribbon to her.

"Oh, and that one, and that one, and also, that one." Cheng Caisi pointed to several pieces of jewelry on the counter, commanding Chang Liu to fetch them.

Nan Moyi turned her head to look at Cheng Caisi, her eyes narrowing slightly. This voice sounded exactly like that female celebrity from her past life who was always nagging behind her back, always bossing people around with an air of superiority.

"That one isn't bad either."

"Hey, wait." Nan Moyi’s lazy voice drifted over faintly.

Having her selection interrupted, Cheng Caisi also frowned. She turned her head to look and only then realized there was such a stunning woman beside her.

The man whom Cheng Caisi called "Brother" also cast a curious gaze upon Nan Moyi, letting out a silent sigh of admiration in his heart.

What a gorgeous and enchanting woman!

A pair of narrow eyes full of charm, inch-perfect vermilion lips incredibly tempting, a sharp and delicate v-shaped face that was fair and smooth, and a red mole at the corner of her eye that added a touch of flirtatiousness. She wore a light blue cloud-patterned crepe robe, her slender willow waist bound by a pale pink sash; her figure was slim, hot, and upright, possessing a rare height for a woman.

Moreover, the cold and lazy aura radiating from Nan Moyi at this moment was even more heart-stirring.

Seeing her brother staring at this enchantress in such a manner, Cheng Caisi gritted her teeth in jealousy. "Do not interfere with this young lady!"

"Interfere?" Nan Moyi curled her lips playfully. Her eyes met Cheng Nanyang’s staring gaze, and she narrowed them slightly, revealing a warning look.

Cheng Nanyang hurriedly averted his eyes, rubbing his nose somewhat awkwardly. Staring at a woman like that was indeed his fault.

"Is this young lady's blood circulation a bit too vigorous? Having nothing better to do than to boss around someone else's maid, and doing so with such righteousness. Could it be that you ate too much for lunch and haven't digested it yet? Perhaps you should go for a run or climb some trees to calm your blood." Nan Moyi spoke indifferently. She snatched the handful of items Cheng Caisi was clutching; just as Cheng Caisi tried to dodge, the ribbons had already been snatched by Nan Moyi and tossed to the shopkeeper. Lifting her exquisite chin, she said, "I'll buy them."

Such speed!

A flash of amazement crossed Cheng Nanyang's eyes.

"What kind of thing do you think you are! How dare you be so rude to this... this young lady! So what if I want to boss around your maid?!" Although Cheng Caisi lowered her voice, she still drew stares from the surrounding crowd. "I want that ribbon! Shopkeeper, double the price!"
