Chapter 342 Looking at Each Other

"Girl, you are so beautiful, I wonder if you could be my wife?" As he said this, the young master of the Niohuru family had an even more greasy smile on his face.

Shi Zhenyun frowned, and her maidservant scolded, "How dare you! Do you think you can just tease our princess like that?"

"Oh, you can't just tease me casually, so how about I tease you properly?"

Shi Zhenyun could tell from looking at the person in front of her that he was drunk. She didn't like people like that. It's said that people speak the truth when they're drunk, and someone who could say such things was obviously not a good person.

Furthermore, this person seemed virtuous in her manners, so she must have done this kind of flirting quite a few times. Besides, in Shi Zhenyun's opinion, if one cannot control oneself from losing control after drinking, then one should not drink at all, as it is truly improper.

Shi Zhenyun directly addressed the servant of Niu Gulu, saying, "Take your young master back. Today we are at the Fucha residence, the maternal home of the Empress. Although I am not someone with extraordinary connections, my father can still speak a few words to the Emperor. Today your young master drank too much, and I can pretend nothing happened. But if this continues, and your young master does something he shouldn't, and I am ruined in the process, I can't take his life, but I can still take yours. What do you think?"

Shih Chen-yun's words seemed to carry a threat, but they were indeed effective.

The young master of the Niohuru family is named Ya Lin. The name sounds nice, but his behavior is really not commendable.

The servant knew that Shi Zhenyun was right. Although he did not know Shi Zhenyun's identity, he still had the sense to judge her. Shi Zhenyun's attire was quite impressive, and her demeanor at home made the servant back down.

Ya Lin was indeed drunk and somewhat disoriented. The servant was attending to Ya Lin and knew what to say to get his attention.

Then the servant said, "Young master, Consort Guarjia is still waiting for you to return to the manor! Didn't you promise her that you would hurry back to be with her? Shall I take you back?"

The servant had to coax and appease Ya Lin before he finally convinced her. At that moment, Bo Bo also spoke up.

"Xu Nian, go and help out."

"Yes, Master."

Bobo's position was quite clever, facing Ya Lin directly. He was drunk and his eyes were glazed, so he naturally couldn't see Bobo.

Ya Lin's servant stood at a right angle to Ya Lin, so he naturally didn't see Bo Bo. As for Shi Zhenyun and her maid, they had their backs to Bo Bo.

Shi Zhenyun was startled by the sudden sound from behind her. She turned around abruptly and saw Bobo.

Xu Nian quickly took Ya Lin away. Ya Lin's servant sensed that something was wrong. His master had lost his ability to make judgments, so leaving was the best option for him, since his master wouldn't remember anything once he woke up.

Everyone else is here, except for Bobo, Shi Zhenyun, and her little maid.

Shi Zhenyun frowned as she looked at the newcomer. After all, it was another man. The first one had just been drunk and they had sent him away. Why was another one coming?

"May I ask what business this young master may have?"

Bobo originally came to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, but he only saw the ending as soon as he arrived. The damsel had already solved everything on their own.

Bobo said, "I was just passing by here. I had a few drinks and was feeling a bit tipsy, so I came out to sober up. I happened to overhear what you were saying earlier, Gege. If I have offended you, please forgive me."

Shi Zhenyun observed that he spoke reasonably and politely, unlike the person from before.

"Young master, you are too kind. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Shi Zhenyun really wants to leave this place. She really didn't check the almanac before going out today, and all she met were men.

Bobo naturally had no objections, although he might feel a tiny bit of regret.

"Please go ahead, Princess."

Bobo himself couldn't quite explain how he felt about this princess he had known for two years. Before he could ponder it, he threw himself into a new round of busy work.

Since the talent show was over, Shi Zhenyun was already sixteen years old. The reason she frequently attended banquets upon returning to the capital was not only to let everyone in the capital know that they had returned, but also because Shi Zhenyun had reached the age to find a partner.

Shi Zhenyun's mother wasn't very reliable, but she doted on her daughter. No one wentssiped about Shi Zhenyun managing the household, but she didn't care. She only had one daughter. Her husband was unreliable, so if her daughter was capable, then let her do it. What use was her good reputation to her?

Having lived half her life, she could still see these things clearly.

Shi Zhenyun's mother was also of high birth; she was a Lady of the County, the second daughter of Chang'adai, the Prince of Huaimin, and the great-granddaughter of Prince Daishan.

The surname is Aisin Gioro.

"Princess, the Princess Consort has sent someone to invite you over."

Shi Zhenyun: "Let's go."

"Mother, why did you call me here?"

Jue Luo said, "Wu's clothing store has released new styles. Your mother has ordered two for you. They are both unique styles. I want you to come and take a look."

Then Jue Luo said to the nanny beside her, "Bring out the clothes."

The clothes were placed on a tray and brought out by the nanny.

Shi Zhenyun didn't look at the clothes, and said, "Thank you, Mother."

Jue Luo Shi: "Don't be so polite with your mother, go and see her quickly."

The clothes were stretched open by the two maids. Shi Zhenyun's keen eye was something she had cultivated since childhood. Although she might not be able to make the embroidery patterns and cuts herself, her work was sometimes good and sometimes bad, and it was only a matter of a glance.

The clothes were indeed very nice, with excellent workmanship and a top-notch style. Shi Zhenyun knew herself quite well, and she knew that these clothes would suit her perfectly.
