Chapter 325 The Spoiled Young Lady Becomes an Apprentice

"Who...who are you?" The woman in red was startled, but only for a moment before the fear in her eyes vanished, replaced by a strange heat.

Min Qiaoshi watched with curiosity, and inexplicably felt that this girl was a bit strange.

The two maids were so frightened by what they saw that they trembled all over, and their voices changed.

"Let go of my young lady!"

"Don't hurt my young lady!"

"Madam, my young lady is not a bad person, she just has a bit of a temper. She has no ill intentions! Please, have mercy on her and let her go!"

"Madam, my young lady is of noble birth and not someone you can afford to offend! Release my young lady now, and we'll pretend nothing happened. We'll leave now!"

...

The two maids pleaded with Madam Min Qiao in trembling voices to let the woman in red go. Even their threats were laced with sobs and had no power whatsoever.

As the two were talking, they even knelt down before Madam Min. They were clearly not the kind of servants who would actually take advantage of their master's power.

Min Qiao then raised her hand, indicating that she would actually let go of the person.

He actually put away the dagger and quickly returned to Min Qiao's side.

Wenxiu, who was protecting Min Qiaoshi and A Shuang, also loosened her grip on the whip.

Upon seeing this, the two maids quickly got up and ran to the woman in red, flanking her from both sides.

"Miss, let's stop making a fuss! There are no superior rooms here, let's go to another inn."

“Miss, these people are not to be trifled with! This is Hezhou Prefecture, not our Huizhou. We should just bear with it.”

The two maids cautiously tried to persuade them.

Just as Min Qiao was wondering whether the woman in red was about to utter some harsh words and leave, or continue to pester them relentlessly...

Suddenly, the woman in red broke free from her maid's grasp and rushed towards Madam Min.

Madam Min was startled. Was this little girl stupid? Knowing she was no match for him, she still dared to make a move?

Zhen Huan and Wen Xiu also stepped forward, protecting Min Qiao Shi behind them.

Just as the two were about to deal with the ungrateful woman in red, the woman in red rushed forward and knelt down in front of Huanzhen and Wenxiu with a thud.

She clasped her hands in a strange, awkward gesture, then looked up at the two men with eager eyes and said, "Please, you two young masters, accept me as your disciple!"

"puff!"

This sudden turn of events left everyone dumbfounded. Madam Min Qiao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She remarked that the girl's eyes were still sparkling even with a knife to her throat. Was she so excited about discovering a skilled fighter?

Both Zhen Huan and Wen Xiu were completely bewildered by the woman in red, but Zhen Huan kept a cold face and an indifferent expression, making it impossible to discern her emotions.

Wenxiu lacked that self-control.

Her lips twitched, and she looked at the woman in red with a puzzled expression before turning to Madam Min, "Grandma, is this girl mentally unstable?"

Madam Min covered her mouth and chuckled, then took two steps forward and asked, "Young lady, you just tried to take our best room and even tried to hit our people. We may not be enemies, but we certainly have some real grudges against each other, right?"

Why do you still want to become our disciple?

The woman in red shook her head in disagreement. "Madam is wrong! People of the martial world don't stand on ceremony. We became friends after a fight. How can that be considered a grudge?"

The woman in red thought for a moment, then stood up and bowed to Ah Shuang, saying, "Miss, I'm sorry for what happened earlier. I shouldn't have hurt her."

The woman in red didn't care whether Ah Shuang accepted it or not. After apologizing, she quickly turned to Madam Min and said, "I won't take your superior room anymore. I've also apologized to your people. We have no more grudges now!"

"Ahem." Jiang Hongling cleared her throat dramatically before continuing, "My name is Jiang Hongling, I'm sixteen years old, and I'm from Huizhou. May I ask how you are addressed, madam? And where are you from, where did you come from, and where are you going?"

"Can I come with you?"

"Don't worry, I brought money with me. I'll cover all your expenses along the way."

"I just want the two young masters to take me as their apprentices and teach me their skills."

She had just truly experienced the skills of the two young masters. Putting aside everything else, she hadn't even seen clearly how one of them had swept away the girl she was about to hit and then grabbed her whip.

The other one flew over from a few steps away and held a dagger to her neck.

Putting everything else aside, her speed alone is something she can only dream of.

What's more, both of them are younger than her! If they were to become more skilled in a few years, what would they be like?

No, she was determined to succeed in becoming an apprentice! Then she would take them back to Huizhou and show those spoiled young ladies who laughed at her and said she only knew some fancy moves whatsoever how powerful her two little masters were!

Faced with Jiang Hongling's enthusiasm, Madam Min smiled and shook her head, somewhat unable to resist. However, she asked, "You're from Huizhou? Why did you come to Hezhou Prefecture alone? Aren't your family worried?"

"My cousin from my aunt's family is missing, so I came out to look for her." Jiang Hongling said this as if she were saying, "The weather is nice."

After saying that, she changed the subject again, "Madam, you still haven't told me your name. And what are the names of my two young masters? Could you ask them to take me in?"

Jiang Hongling looked at Min Qiaoshi with anticipation.

She could tell for sure that Madam Min was the mistress. The rest of them all seemed to be Madam Min's maids.

If she can get Madam Min to agree, will her little master still be able to escape?

Seeing Jiang Hongling's relentless pursuit, Madam Min Qiao suddenly felt speechless.

She used to be a cold, arrogant, violent, and unapproachable spoiled young lady, so how did she suddenly change her style and become an outgoing, talkative, and shameless person?

This change is a bit too drastic.

Perhaps sensing Min Qiao's speechlessness, Jiang Hongling's two maids stepped forward with embarrassed expressions.

The maid Cuiyu, who had taken the key from the shopkeeper, spoke first: "Please don't be offended, Madam. My young lady has read too many picture books and has dreamed of roaming the martial world since she was a child. So she has always had great respect for people with good skills."

Another maid, Cuijin, chimed in, "Our master hired several female instructors for our young lady, supposedly to teach her martial arts. But in reality, they were just hired by our master to appease her."

“A few days ago, my young lady learned the truth, so she ran away from home under the pretense of looking for someone.”

"Who ran away from home? Who ran away from home?" Jiang Hongling glared at the two of them, dissatisfied. "I clearly came out to look for someone! My cousin from my aunt's family is missing, is that a lie?"

Cuiyu muttered under her breath, "The missing young lady is just a concubine's daughter. You're not even familiar with her. Is it really worth coming all this way to look for her?"

Cui Jin also whispered, "In the end, all you want is to venture out into the martial world, uphold justice, and hopefully meet a great hero to become his disciple! You might fool others with your little schemes, but do you think you can fool me and Cui Yu?"

Min Qiaoshi and the others listened in stunned silence.

Goodness, this girl is really brave!

After looking at a few picture books, he dared to run away from home and venture into the world.

Tsk tsk! Such an innocent and pampered young lady, I wonder which family raised her!

After learning about Jiang Hongling's situation, Madam Min and her group lost interest in her and went upstairs to their room with the key.

A Shuang asked for hot water and, together with A Wu, helped Min Qiao Shi bathe and change.

Asi and Asan borrowed the inn's kitchen to prepare a meal for Min Qiaoshi.

As for Zhen Huan and Wen Xiu, they were directly entangled by Jiang Hongling.

"Little master, little master, please accept me as your disciple!" Jiang Hongling held onto Zhen Huan with her left hand and Wen Xiu with her right, refusing to let go no matter what.
