Xiao Changqi did nothing to her, only glancing at her expressionlessly: "When did it become your place to comment on my actions?"
The implication is, who are you to me?
Yuan Dan opened his mouth: "..."
All right.
She was indeed no one to Xiao Changqi, but...
"Since Your Highness does not welcome me, I will not bother you any longer. I only ask that Your Highness give me the sparrow."
Yuan Dan was a woman of principle. Even if she didn't care about her reputation, she couldn't let the Yuan family lose face after being rejected by men time and time again.
Xiao Changqi disliked the sparrow in the first place, and upon hearing this, he coldly replied, "Whatever."
After saying this, Xiao Changqi dismounted, tossed the reins to the guards, and walked directly into the Prince's mansion.
The host didn't invite her in, and Yuandan wouldn't presume to follow her in; she just waited outside for someone to bring the sparrow out.
Huo Youcai, who was preparing to stay and play the hero, saw that Yuan Dan was completely unharmed after making outrageous remarks to Gan Wang. His eyes immediately changed from being idle to admiring.
The other spoiled brats had already run away when Xiao Changqi showed signs of displeasure. Now that Xiao Changqi was gone, Huo Youcai reverted to his fearless and domineering nature.
"May I ask your name, Miss?"
Hearing the sound, Yuan Dan turned around and saw Huo Youcai, who was as fat as a ball. She raised an eyebrow without making a sound.
This chubby kid wasn't scared away by Xiao Changqi?
My impression of this chubby boy on New Year's Day wasn't actually that bad. In fact, some people may seem stupid, but they are actually wise beyond their years.
Huo Youcai wasn't a bad person by nature; he was just spoiled by his family. Although the chubby boy was a bit arrogant, he had never done anything like bullying men or women; he was just a typical spoiled brat.
How could a young lady casually reveal her maiden name to others? Jin Ying wanted to stop her, but Yuan Dan had already said it: "Yuan Dan."
Huo Youcai's eyes lit up immediately: "Miss Yuan, do you need another lackey?"
New Year:"?"
“I don’t need any followers,” Yuan Dan coldly and ruthlessly refused.
Huo Youcai was not discouraged. He said with great interest, "No, I think you must be missing a little brother who can protect you in the capital and let you walk sideways."
New Year:"……"
They even walk sideways.
What if she's a crab?
However, Yuan Dan was quite tempted by the chubby boy's promise to protect her.
Yuan Dan hesitated for a few seconds, then decided, "Seeing how sincere you are, I'll reluctantly take you on as my underling."
Huo Youcai: "Okay, from now on you'll be my older brother!"
Jin Ying reminded her from the side, "My young lady is a woman!"
Huo Youcai: "Then... eldest sister?"
Jin Ying glared at him with displeasure: "How dare you take advantage of my young lady?"
Huo Youcai scratched the back of his head: "What's it called?"
At this moment, Yuan Dan spoke up: "Call me Boss."
Huo Youcai immediately called out, "Boss."
Once he acknowledged the boss, Huo Youcai immediately came over and asked gossipy, "Boss, can you tell me how you angered the Prince of Gan and didn't get a lesson from him?"
Speaking of this, Yuan Dan couldn't help but feel proud: "Gan Wang is actually a stubborn and soft-hearted tsundere. As long as I shed tears in front of him, he won't be able to bring himself to touch me."
The old steward who brought the sparrows out heard this and was speechless.
Miss, do you perhaps have some misunderstanding about our Prince?
Huo Youcai listened intently, almost as if he were taking notes: "Does the Prince of Gan also fall for the 'crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide' tactic?"
"Why aren't you eating?" Yuan Dan leaned against the stone lion at the entrance of the Ganwang Mansion, crossed his arms, and started bragging. "Ganwang is just a paper tiger. Crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide might not work on him, but crying, acting cute, and showering him with compliments will definitely appease him."
