His expression was extremely serious, which frightened Xiaoyue so much that she immediately covered her mouth tightly.
Seeing that her young mistress was about to look through the hole in the wall, she became anxious and whispered in her ear, "Young Master is here!"
We have to run!
Wei Wei became even more excited upon hearing this, and she murmured to herself with her eyes wide open, "Good thing! Good thing!"
That strange appearance was almost bewitching.
Oh no, are you scared out of your wits?
Seeing her unusual behavior, Xiaoyue was so frightened she almost cried: "Miss, you can't be silly! He just lost face like that, if he comes, he'll definitely make things difficult for you!"
"This servant will go down and find Brother Leng, and ask him to protect you!"
Wei Wei was both amused and exasperated: "How could he know we were at Chunfeng Tower?"
He waved his hand again: "Don't worry, he's not here to see us."
"If you're scared, just close the door tightly so he can't see you."
Unable to reason with her young mistress, Xiaoyue resignedly wiped away the tears from her eyes.
It's too late to run now. At worst, I'll guard the outside and make sure the young master doesn't get in!
Once you understand that, you're not so afraid anymore.
She gritted her teeth, turned around, and went to the outer room.
I waited outside in fear for a while, guessing that he had already come up.
Just as I was filled with fear, I heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
With a creak, Xiaoyue'er's body trembled, and she looked towards the gate, but saw no one there!
Does he really not know they're here?
Wei Wei ignored Xiao Yue'er's startled reaction and instead looked through the small mouse hole to see Meng Zhixuan step into the neighbor's door like a beggar.
His usual gentle and refined image has vanished without a trace.
His hair was disheveled and even had a suspicious stench.
Even the light-colored robes were covered in patches of dirt, some dark and some light.
They were truly in a terrible state.
If you weren't paying attention, you wouldn't recognize him as the prized son of the Meng family.
"Meng Zhixuan, where are the men you brought?"
Upon seeing him, Changhe frowned, covered his nose with his hand, and then looked behind him.
Seeing that it was completely empty, even the last bit of patience vanished.
Meng Zhixuan had no time to think about why she insisted on seeing Wei Wei. Seeing his beloved angry, he felt extremely guilty: "Please forgive me, Your Excellency... There was an accident on the way, and that woman has probably already escaped back home..."
Changhe's face turned pale: "She ran back home? Why didn't you go back and bring her here so I could see her?"
Do you know how long we've been waiting for you here?
Meng Zhixuan dared not look directly at her, but instead lowered his head, his face full of unease and regret.
This only fueled Nagato's anger: "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you deaf?"
Meng Zhixuan smiled wryly: "My lord, please don't be angry... What if you get sick from anger... I'll go back now and bring her to see you."
Changhe felt disgusted by his appearance and scoffed, "Then go ahead."
What are you still doing here?
Meng Zhixuan was about to leave in a panic when Third Master said in a low voice, "Changhe, don't speak to Young Master Meng like that again."
"Did all those etiquette lessons you learned end up in the dog's stomach?"
Nagaho was unconvinced, tilting his head with a grim expression, but ultimately remained silent.
Seeing the person he liked being scolded, Meng Zhixuan became anxious.
He said, "Third Master, it's all my fault! If you must scold someone, please scold me."
Third Master looked at the flustered Meng Zhixuan, his expression softening slightly: "Only you can tolerate her temper—what exactly happened today? Tell me."
Meng Zhixuan gritted his teeth as he recalled everything that had happened today: "I don't know what happened to that woman, but she actually offended that bastard surnamed Qin outside, and he's determined to cause me trouble."
"I had some important business to attend to and hid for a few days, but I was still blocked on the road by him today. If it weren't for Third Master's men saving me, I don't know how much longer I would have had to struggle with them."
"I will never forget this great kindness!"
He bent even lower, and his voice became even more obsequious.
Third Master nodded nonchalantly and said, "These are just simple things to do. What's wrong with your hands?"
The mention of his hands only intensified his shame and anger.
"This hand was broken by Seventh Master!"
His expression was cold: "The last time he played a trick on me, all I did was argue with him for a few words, and he hurled insults at me. Even when I mentioned Third Master's name, he didn't care at all."
At this point, his expression became agitated: "I hope Third Master will uphold justice for me."
I thought Third Master would be furious when he heard this, but he fell silent and finally slowly revealed a smile.
"Is there some misunderstanding between you and Lao Qi?"
That was the first thing he said.
This is completely different from what Meng Zhixuan had envisioned!
He was somewhat stunned, but he had no choice but to listen to the person in front of him continue speaking.
"Seventh Brother has always been carefree and doesn't meddle in other people's business... How about this, I'll have someone bring him over. You can take this opportunity to talk about any misunderstandings that have arisen between you."
Third Master started to smooth things over, and Meng Zhixuan could no longer maintain his composure.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Naga.
Last time, she clearly said that Seventh Master was just an insignificant dog by Third Master's side, and that there was no need to take him seriously.
Now, however, it has completely changed.
Even though his gaze was quite obvious, the latter completely ignored him.
