Chapter 3: The Second Prince is a Loser?!

Chapter Three: The Second Prince is a Loser?!

"Miss, Miss! Something terrible has happened! Master went to the Prince's Mansion to challenge the Second Prince to a fight!"

Hua Ying's voice arrived before her person; she came rushing in from outside the door, panting heavily!

Her small face was flushed, and two locks of hair hanging from her sheep-horn buns swayed incessantly against her ears!

Zhan Xiaojiu gazed at her lazily and pouted, "And?"

With a look of terror, Hua Ying scurried to Zhan Xiaojiu's couch. While handing her clothes, she said hurriedly, "Miss, you forgot again!

If Master really goes to challenge the Second Prince to a fight, the Second Prince will definitely be beaten black and blue!

If you don't go to stop him, and the Second Prince gets injured, you'll end up fighting with Master again!"

Zhan Xiaojiu was shocked!

"Holy crap, is my cheap father's martial skill that awesome?! Is the Second Prince a loser? Why didn't you say so yesterday!"

Hua Ying fell silent. It seemed the Miss hadn't asked her this question yesterday either!

Why was it that after the Miss got injured, her whole personality became even more crazed!

Heavens, save her!

At that moment, Zhan Xiaojiu, who had originally felt life was not worth living, suddenly felt energized upon hearing Hua Ying's words!

Fortunately, the wound on her stomach wasn't deep; after her careful cleaning and bandaging yesterday, it was no longer a major issue!

And so, like a gust of wind, Zhan Xiaojiu leaped straight up from the soft couch, grabbed the clothes from Hua Ying's hands, and began putting them on haphazardly!

Ultimately, under Hua Ying's "I'm seeing a ghost" expression, Zhan Xiaojiu's tasseled pleated skirt was worn in a complete mess, with even the waist sash tied in a knot. Without a word, she grabbed Hua Ying and started walking!

Hua Ying wailed behind her, "Miss, slow down! You haven't even washed your face!"

Zhan Xiaojiu had no time to care. Are you kidding me? It would be too much of a waste not to join in on such a big commotion!

Who cares about washing their face at a time like this!

Zhan Xiaojiu rushed off, pulling Hua Ying along; the two of them moved as if they had Wind and Fire Wheels under their feet!

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Hua Ying was so exhausted she could barely catch her breath. She pointed toward a mansion with red tiles and gray walls ahead, "Mi... Miss, that's the place!"

As if still feeling lingering fear, Hua Ying couldn't help but urge, "Miss, Master only does this because he pities you. Please, don't fight with Master again!

What's so good about that Second Prince! He takes pleasure in mocking you all day long, and he always lets the capital's number one lady humiliate you!

Miss, can you please..."

"Who said I'm going to fight with my cheap father! I'm going to join him in the fight! Go, lead the way for this young master!"

And so, Hua Ying led the way, looking back every three steps, but she couldn't help feeling that something was slightly off!

Although the Miss usually rushed over just as frantically whenever she heard Master was challenging the Second Prince, every single time, she would stand by the Second Prince's side to join in the crusade against her own father!

But this time, it seemed different!

Zhan Xiaojiu deliberately ignored Hua Ying's scrutiny. Under her guidance, the two of them entered the Prince's Mansion—which had no guards and wide-open gates—as if entering an uninhabited land!

Beyond the inner gates of the Prince's Mansion, it was like another world!

Jagged rockeries and mountain springs flowing from them formed a small waterfall, adding a touch of coolness to this sweltering summer day!

The scenery of the inner courtyard was elegant and exquisite; the golden-glinting glazed tiles made it a bit difficult for Zhan Xiaojiu to keep her eyes open!

Perhaps because she had arrived too hastily before, she slowed her pace now; she could feel a faint ache in her stomach and chest.

Suddenly, a sharp shout caught Zhan Xiaojiu's attention!

"Gu Beichen, today I will surely grind your bones to ashes!"
