Chapter 224 The Girl's True Nature
"Zhang Li!" The Thirteenth Master in front frowned deeply: "How dare you!"
When the guard heard this, he took two steps back feeling aggrieved and said, "I admit my guilt." But he looked at Wen Jiu with an unfriendly look.
Wenjiu: “…” She came back home, what did she do to offend anyone?
The Thirteenth Master in front took two steps back and clasped his fists towards Wen Jiu. "My lady, I was rude with my words. I apologize to you here. Please don't take it personally."
"Oh," Wenjiu blinked twice, "It's quite strange."
Thirteenth Master subconsciously said: "The girl is very broad-minded... huh?"
What does "Girl..." mean, it's quite strange?
Shisan originally thought that the other party wouldn't care, so he just asked Zhang Li to apologize, but he didn't expect the other party to say that.
Wen Jiu rolled his eyes and said, "I really didn't mean to follow you. I just wanted to go home."
"Miss, you are really amazing. You even treated this big government office as your home, and you still said you didn't come here with our master..." Zhang Li was so angry that he wanted to laugh after hearing this.
This girl must be thinking everyone is a fool, right? She can't even find a suitable excuse!
"Zhang Li!" Thirteenth Master's face turned ugly. "If you dare say another word, I'll pull out your tongue."
Zhang Li met Shisan's cold gaze and felt a little frightened. He immediately said, "Master, I won't dare to do that again."
The master is usually very peaceful and rarely gets angry like this, but every time he gets angry, the consequences are serious.
Thirteen covered his lips and coughed a few times, then forced himself to suppress it. He turned to look at Wen Jiu and said, "Miss, the servant has done something wrong. I will definitely punish him when I get home. But the government office is a very important place, and it is really not a place where women should be. How about I send someone to escort you back home?"
After thinking for a while, Master Thirteen took off his ring and said, "Give this to the young lady as a thank you gift..."
Warming wine: "......"
"I'm really home now." After thinking for a moment, he added, "I don't need your thank you gift."
They've already arrived at the yamen, and she's accepting Thirteenth Master's things at this time. Is she out of her mind?
Thirteen's brows knitted slightly: "Miss, you should go back first."
Thirteen's tone was also somewhat cold and hard. He thought, this woman had just saved him, he wanted to give her some face, after all, women are more thin-skinned. But he didn't expect this man to be so stubborn. Knowing that it was the government office, he still followed?
Wen Jiu looked at the heart shape on Shisan's head, which was so pale that it was almost invisible, and knew what he was thinking.
He rolled his eyes, walked past Thirteen, and went into the yamen by himself.
"Master, this woman is really ungrateful. You're doing this for her own good, but she doesn't appreciate it at all. She's even insisting on going in. She'll definitely be kicked out soon."
Thirteen frowned, but didn't scold Zhang Li beside him. He glanced ahead worriedly and sighed, "Forget it, I'd better go and help out."
It would be a shame to let a girl who had just saved him lose face in public.
Thirteen quickened his pace, and before he got close, he saw two yamen runners at the door letting the girl in.
Thirteen blinked blankly and followed subconsciously.
The two yamen runners guarding the gate stopped them outside: "You are..." The yamen runners did not recognize these two people.
Zhang Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately took out the badge on the Thirteenth Master's waist and said, "Look carefully!"
The two gatekeepers looked at each other and immediately put down their weapons: "Come in." One of them immediately ran in to report.
Thirteen took two quick steps to catch up with Wenjiu in front of him and looked at her suspiciously: "How could a young lady even enter the government office?"
Wen Jiu showed him his eight teeth: "Thanks to you, I was not stopped at the door."
Seeing the guards behind him looking confused, Wen Jiu couldn't help but raise his chin and said, "Tsk, I'm sorry, brother, I disappoint you."
Zhang Li was so angry that he jumped up and down, gnashing his teeth and saying, "I don't know what tricks he used again, what's so great about it..."
After he finished speaking, he saw Thirteen looking at him. He was so scared that he covered his mouth and dared not speak anymore.
"Hahaha, I forgot, your master didn't let you speak just now. Tsk tsk, how pitiful."
Wenjiu, supported by Dashao, took two steps with a swagger, then turned around and grinned at Zhang Li, "Wow, it feels so good to speak so freely in the government office. Dashao, don't you think so?"
Dashao nodded immediately: "Miss, Dashao is a good servant and will not speak nonsense."
When Wenjiu heard this, he was immediately surprised: "Hey, you've made rapid progress?" He was so excited that he could sing and drink with her.
Dashao said seriously, "Don't worry, girl. Dashao will improve in the future and will definitely not be as annoying as that guard."
Wen Jiu glanced at Zhang Li, whose face was red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and silently gave Da Shao a thumbs-up: "Awesome."
Zhang Li: “!!!” How long has it been since someone pointed at your nose and scolded you?
He didn't dare to say anything at the moment, but just looked at his master, hoping that his master could help him vent his anger.
"Miss..." Thirteen looked at Wen Jiu carefully, but just smiled and said, "Miss, you are really nice."
Thirteen was also a little dazed. It had been a long time since he had seen such a straightforward provocation.
The guards before the princes were the faces of each prince. Others would never offend them, let alone speak so bluntly and insinuately. This woman, though somewhat dissatisfied with herself, was quite petty. Yet, her frankness made it difficult to dislike her.
Zhang Li: “…” Shouldn’t the master stand on his side?
Seeing that Thirteen looked mature and steady, Wen Jiu gave him a half-hearted smile and said, "Thank you for the compliment. Goodbye." Then he turned and left.
Thirteen was stunned again when he saw that she had never looked at him warming the wine.
So, this person really wasn't coming for him?
He slapped his forehead in frustration, then he remembered that he was only thirteen years old. In the eyes of this woman, he should still be a child, right?
Earlier, someone saved me, but what on earth have I done now?
I immediately chased after him and wanted to apologize again.
"Master, let's not be angry with her. A little girl is not worth getting angry about. Look, the man next to the Fourth Prince is coming over. I think the Fourth Prince has sent him to pick you up. Let's go see the Fourth Prince and not waste our time on a girl."
Thirteen walked without stopping, and without even turning his head, he said, "I have never been angry."
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Li meaningfully and added, "I'm not a petty person."
Zhang Li: “…” I felt offended.
Having just looked at the two silent brothers, he was still thinking about telling them about his grievances when he had the chance. If they followed the Fourth Master, they would definitely find a way to deal with this woman and get back at her!
Now that his master had warned him, he was afraid that he would not be able to accomplish this task. However, he finally pulled himself together and thought about going to say hello to his good brother.
But then, he saw his two brothers... running towards the woman!
