Outside, Mai Zizi sat on a stool, surrounded by a group of maids trying to comfort her, but she couldn't hear a single word they said.
Shen Qianxue didn't come out of the room for a long time; she must be blaming her for causing Su Jinxia's injury.
Thinking back to what just happened, if Su Jin hadn't intervened, she might have been finished!

Mai Zizi's mind was in a mess. For a moment, she felt a little dazed, as if everything had changed.
