Chapter 672
Jixiang carried the person forward, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
But the road ahead always has an end.
Soon, Ji Xiang stood in front of Su Zhengyu.
The door to the guesthouse closed behind him. Jixiang took a deep breath, carefully placed the person on his back on the ground, and bowed to Su Zhengyu.
While bowing, Jixiang's gaze swept around the room.
There was only Su Zhengyu and his butler in the room, a stranger whom Jixiang had never seen before.
Su Zhengyu snorted coldly: "You girl, you're quite diligent in your work."
Now you're finally putting in the effort, where were you before!
Su Zhengyu flicked his sleeve and gestured with his chin toward the person lying on the ground: "We're already here, why are you being so secretive?"
Ji Xiang understood and stepped forward to remove the veil.
The woman seemed to have truly fainted, remaining motionless no matter how auspiciously she was placed.
Her features were not as gentle as those of a typical woman; instead, they revealed a heroic spirit.
"This is the Huo family's daughter? She doesn't seem particularly special," Su Zhengyu said.
The steward, Su, cupped his hands in greeting and said, "After all, she's just a young girl. Besides, she was a concubine before being taken back by the Huo family. How could she be some extraordinary person?"
Su Zhengyu burst out laughing: "Oh, right, I forgot about that. This girl used to be a concubine, and she even has a child."
"Exactly."
Seeing that Su Zhengyu and the steward remained silent, Jixiang asked, "My lord, if I may be so bold as to ask, why did you summon Miss Huo here?"
Su Zhengyu snorted coldly; "Do I have to report to a girl like you what I'm going to do?"
“You’re mistaken, sir. One must be cautious in dealing with things in Luoyang City. But you’re new here and may not understand many things. However, I’ve been in Luoyang City for a long time and I think I’ve seen a bit of the world. Perhaps I can be of some help to you.”
As soon as Ji Xiang finished speaking, Su Zhengyu burst into laughter.
After a long while, Su Zhengyu's laughter finally stopped: "You little girl, you really think highly of yourself! You really think you're someone important, and you even want to help me?"
Even without Yun Wan's help, they still look down on this maid!
They really think too highly of themselves.
The butler chuckled twice in agreement, then called out, "Someone come here!"
The butler finished speaking, but there was no movement outside for a long time.
The butler called out several more times, but there was still no response.
The butler, puzzled, stepped forward and opened the door.
The door had barely opened a crack when it was slammed open by a powerful force. Immediately afterwards, two rows of strong and burly guards filed in, surrounding the room from the inside out.
The butler standing by the door was apprehended immediately.
Su Zhengyu realized something was wrong, so he subconsciously walked towards Jixiang and the woman lying on the ground, thinking that if he could get his hands on them, he could save his own life.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he approached, the woman on the ground did a somersault and got up, grabbing him with her hand.
His arms were tied behind his back, and the woman's grip was extremely strong. Su Zhengyu tried his best, but he couldn't break free.
After trying a few times, Su Zhengyu simply gave up: ...
Wasn't it said that the Huo family's daughter had always been raised by scholars?
That's a bit too nimble, isn't it?
And with that strength in her hands, what did this girl eat to grow up like that?
Even a professional martial artist wouldn't have this skill!
Just then, a woman slowly walked in from outside the door.
The woman wore a long silver-red dress, with delicate eyebrows and bright, clear eyes, looking like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.
Jixiang got up from the ground and walked to Yunxi's side in a few steps.
