Chapter 119 Encountering a Troublesome Slave
Surrounded by so many people, Su Xing looked puzzled. Isn't it just a box of rouge?
What's wrong with these people?
Before he could figure out what was going on, Lin Laner said anxiously, "Brother Su, I don't want that. I just want to take a look."
Su Xing thought Lin Lan'er was still embarrassed and tried to comfort her, but was interrupted by a very impolite voice: "What a big tone! You dare to talk big without even considering whether you deserve it!"
When Su Xing turned his head, he saw a tall and strong girl staring at him with disdain, with a contemptuous smile on her face as white as a silver plate.
He immediately determined that the words just now came from this girl, but why was she staring at him?
Are you talking about him?
Su Xing pointed at himself stupidly and asked seriously, "Are you talking about me?"
The girl was a little surprised when she saw Su Xing's appearance. She didn't expect that this country bumpkin was actually quite good-looking. But after hearing what Su Xing said, the contempt on her face became more obvious: "Yes, I'm talking about you."
Su Xing was not going to argue with a girl. He just didn't understand what he had done and why people were saying that to him?
"Why are you talking about me?" Su Xing asked calmly, "How did I brag?"
Su Xing's good temper aroused admiration from everyone. Those who originally thought that Su Xing was overestimating his own abilities felt that they had misunderstood Su Xing, and that perhaps Su Xing really was unaware of the situation.
As a result, they cast angry looks at the girl who spoke rudely.
The girl felt the hostility of the crowd, her face tightened, and she immediately became angry and said: "How dare you, a bumpkin who came out of nowhere, say you want to buy the treasure of this store, and you dare to say it's not bragging?"
Without waiting for Su Xing to respond, she continued to press him: "Do you know where this box of rouge came from? Do you know how much it is worth? You dare to speak so arrogantly, it's really hilarious!"
Su Xing finally understood that this box of rouge was very expensive. No wonder everyone was so surprised.
But no matter how expensive it is, isn’t it just a box of rouge? Is it necessary to insult people like this?
"My lady," Su Xing said politely, "I really don't know the origin of this box of rouge. After all, I don't need it. I just bought it as a gift to a friend. Even so, you don't have to speak so harshly, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately understood the whole story. Adding to that Su Xing's good temper, everyone changed their opinion of him and began to look down upon the unreasonable girl.
The girl was angry and ashamed, but she did not attack Su Xing again. Instead, she directed her anger at Lin Lan'er.
She first looked Lin Lan'er up and down, then smiled disdainfully: "Isn't this the person you want to send off?"
Lin Lan'er felt uncomfortable when being stared at, and she couldn't help but shudder when she heard the thorny tone in her words.
She had never experienced such a situation before and had no idea what to do. She could only lower her head in fear.
Su Xing himself didn't care, but he couldn't stand the people around him being insulted, so he immediately frowned and said, "Who I send to you has nothing to do with you. I can ignore your offense to me, but if you are rude to my friends, I won't let you go!"
"Oh, are you going to be a hero and save the beauty? What a pity, you don't look like a hero, and that girl isn't that pretty either..." The girl looked back and forth between Su Xing and Lin Lan'er with a mean look, and then pouted arrogantly: "But... I want to see how you're going to keep me from leaving me alone."
After saying that, she actually walked towards Su Xing, with a provocative look on her big face.
Su Xing didn't expect that girls of this era were so difficult to deal with. He thought they were all like Lin Lan'er, who would blush when talking to the opposite sex.
What should I do?
He couldn't possibly fight with her, could he?
The girl saw Su Xing's confusion and sneered, "Are you scared now? Tsk tsk! You are so useless. If I tell you my identity, won't you be so scared that you pee your pants?"
Su Xing has a good temper, but he is not without temper.
Since this girl is not giving in, why should he maintain his composure?
He frowned again and said in a cold voice: "This girl is going too far. I have been tolerant, but you are still aggressive! I want to hear who you are, so that everyone can know what kind of family background can raise such an uneducated person like you!"
The girl was waiting for this moment. She was not afraid, but even more arrogant: "Then you better listen carefully!"
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears. They were also very curious, where did such an unreasonable person come from?
The girl felt an inexplicable sense of pride when she saw this. She snorted complacently and said, "My master is the daughter of the eldest princess and the future regent princess."
When they heard "my master", contempt immediately appeared in everyone's eyes. It turned out that she was just a maid who took advantage of the power of her master.
But when they heard the following words, everyone immediately withdrew their contemptuous looks and replaced them with shock.
The Princess's Mansion is fine, but who dares to offend the Regent Princess?
Su Xing was shocked. Luo Ling'er's maid?
Why does Luo Ling'er have such a maid?
This really didn't match his impression of Luo Ling'er.
But since it was Luo Ling'er, he really had to pay attention, not only to the Princess's Mansion, but also to Ye Linghan...
He didn't expect Ye Linghan to help him when he offended Luo Ling'er.
They are going to become husband and wife, so what does he count as?
Thinking of this, Su Xing felt uncomfortable again...
The maid saw that everyone's expression had changed, and she looked very proud.
The look he gave Su Xing became even more brazen: "Why aren't you talking? Are you scared?"
Su Xing looked at the maid with a complicated expression and said nothing.
The maid looked at him with contempt: "How about this, if you kneel down and kowtow to me, and call me aunt, I won't tell my master what happened today, how about that?"
After saying that, the maid showed a hateful expression, as if saying, "You're lucky, I'll spare your life today."
Everyone was angry but dared not speak out, for fear of offending the maid.
Su Xing remained silent. Lin Lan'er was terrified. She quietly tugged at Su Xing's sleeve and asked in a trembling voice, "Brother Su, what should we do?"
Su Xing turned his head slightly and gave Lin Lan'er a reassuring smile.
Then he looked at the maid and smiled coldly: "It's okay, just tell your master, I'm not afraid. Also, I'll tell you, my name is Su Xing, and I happen to be working for the regent. If you want to cause trouble for me, just come."
After saying that, he suddenly looked at the frightened waiter and asked, "Waiter, how much is this box of rouge?"
If the price is right, he still wants to buy it and give it to Lin Laner.
The waiter was immediately shocked, but without thinking too much, he replied, "Sir, this is the best rouge in our store. The production is very low, and we can only make one box every year. It costs one thousand taels of silver."
Su Xing had no concept of money, but he just happened to have the banknotes that Ye Lingchen gave him before he left, saying that he couldn't prepare a birthday present for him, so he should buy whatever he liked.
He took out the silver bills, wanting to see if they were enough, but it turned out that each one was worth one thousand taels.
He casually pulled out a piece and handed it to the waiter: "Please help me wrap it up."
There was a gasp in the air all around, and the maid yelled angrily: "How dare you! This rouge belongs to my young lady!"
