Chapter 2 Mutual Criticism



Although she really wanted to kick Fu Hanlai back into the water, Jiang Xuelin didn't act so arrogantly in front of everyone.

If she really does that, it will definitely cause trouble for the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion, and the censor will have to impeach her father tomorrow.

So she regretfully gave up.

However, even though she was just saying it, Fu Hanlai's two guards were very nervous, fearing that Jiang Xuelin would actually take action.

Normally, Fu Hanlai would have jumped up and started arguing with Jiang Xuelin, but this time he was still choking on water and completely soaked, showing none of the arrogance usually associated with the Prince of Ping.

Jiang Xuelin's eyes are somewhat similar to those of Lady Jing'an, both being round almond-shaped eyes, but the corners of her eyes are slightly upturned, making her look more flamboyant.

Her personality was even more flamboyant, completely different from the noble ladies of the time. She seemed to disregard the rules at all; otherwise, she, an unmarried girl, would not have become mortal enemies with Fu Hanlai.

Those bright, beautiful eyes fell on Fu Hanlai, and finally Fu Hanlai heard a sneer.

"Young Master is indeed as always."

Pooh!

You're so useless!

"Jiang Xuelin! What woman is as rude as you!" After catching his breath, Fu Hanlai felt extremely aggrieved as he listened to Jiang Xuelin's mocking words.

He doesn't understand either.

Why did I have to see Jiang Xuelin while out for a spring outing? I must have forgotten to check the almanac before going out today; nothing's going right.

"Fu Hanlai!" Jiang Xuelin, who had just stepped back onto the carriage shaft and was about to climb into the carriage, turned her head again with a mocking face when she heard Fu Hanlai's coughing and somewhat weak voice. "What man is as useless as you!"

Whether it was the maids and guards brought by Jiang Xuelin or the guards brought by Fu Hanlai, they were all used to seeing the two arguing again and wanted to persuade them, but the two masters were obviously angry, so they hesitated for a moment.

As for the two arguing in public, it's not surprising given that they've fought in the street before.

"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family has finished her mourning period and started looking for a husband? I wonder which unlucky man is going to marry a tigress like you!" Shivering in the slightly chilly spring breeze, Fu Hanlai was unwilling to admit defeat, and Jiang Xuelin's words were indeed very infuriating.

He was indeed in a sorry state, but he had no intention of admitting defeat to Jiang Xuelin.

However, since Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai are mortal enemies, they must have had their share of back-and-forth, and she is not someone to be trifled with.

"Heh! I heard the young master is also getting engaged? I wonder which noble lady offended the immortals and ended up marrying someone like you..." Jiang Xuelin deliberately swept her gaze over Fu Hanlai again, scrutinizing him thoroughly. "Tsk tsk, a young lady who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs since childhood, but in the end she was unlucky enough to marry someone... Hmm, how pitiful."

Unfinished business is what's most annoying.

"you!"

"What kind of young lady would meet and argue with men like you, showing your face in public all the time? Don't you feel ashamed? Get out of here right now!"

Jiang Xuelin glanced at Fu Hanlai with disdain, feeling genuinely uncomfortable. She turned and stepped into the carriage, then poked her head out and gave the stomping Fu Hanlai a flamboyant smile. "Did I speak with another man?"

After saying that, he lowered the curtain of the carriage.

—You are not an outsider.

—You're not a man.

Fu Hanlai was stunned for a moment before he realized what Jiang Xuelin meant, and immediately flew into a rage, "Jiang Xuelin! Get down here! This young master wants to duel with you!"

"Young Master! Young Master! That's enough!" The two guards beside Fu Hanlai saw him baring his teeth and claws as he tried to pounce on the carriage, and they quickly stopped him, trying to comfort him.

"Your Highness, you are truly no match for the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Forget it, let's go back first and tell the Prince about this matter. The Prince will surely seek justice for you!"

At that point, the prince will probably say it's fine, but he'll probably still confine the heir apparent.

"Your Highness, I will take you back to Yuanshan Temple to change into clean clothes. If you catch a cold, you will not be able to go out."

Forget it, forget it.

You can't beat the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, so why embarrass yourself? You might as well take the easy way out.

If the prince and princess find out that the young master had fought with the eldest daughter of the Jiang family again and lost once more, they will surely be in trouble.

Prince Ping's heir can fight with the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, but he and another person cannot; otherwise, Marquis Jing'an would certainly not let it go so easily.

Moreover... neither of them were a match for the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.

Fu Hanlai was furious, but what the two guards said was true. He was no match for Jiang Xuelin at all. He couldn't understand why Jiang Xuelin, a woman, was so skilled.

"You! What use are you to me, the young master!"

He couldn't even beat a woman!

The two guards simply bowed their heads and admitted their mistake.

"Let's go to Yuanshan Temple!"

It was freezing cold. He was a man, not afraid of Jiang Xuelin, but simply didn't want to argue with a woman.

At this moment, Jiang Xuelin was in the carriage, with all the windows and doors closed.

The Jiang family's carriage is quite special. Although the carriage has curtains and the windows on both sides also have curtains to block the view outside, there is a hidden door on each side. Once the hidden door is closed, the carriage will form a completely enclosed space.

Jiang Xuelin didn't rush to change her clothes, but it was indeed inconvenient to be wet, so she decided to go to the side room of Yuanshan Temple to change into clean clothes first.

"Young lady, shall we continue to Yuanshan Temple?"
