Sun Zixi poured herself a cup of tea. This tea was prepared for her by Qingqing, the concubine who left the mansion with her mother.
I don't know what's wrong with her now, she insists on being a maid by her mother's side, and she won't listen to anything I say, which has really annoyed the previous head maid.
The aroma of tea is enticing, she's considerate in her work, and most importantly, she's quick-witted. Look at how well the head maidservants around her mother are on good terms with her now.
Unfortunately, some people just aren't smart enough.
For example, these few people now.
As the sun began to set, it was time for school to end, but Li Jian hadn't come to find her yet. It must be that Class A's dismissal time was more punctual, unlike theirs.
"Do you want to know if anyone will take me seriously?"
Sun Zixi flexed her wrists, and just then, the bell-ringing boy rang out. The girl stepped outside and looked at Huo Panlijian walking towards her.
She had been in Pingyang County for so long, growing up playing with Huo Xiaolong and the others. Although her skills were not as good as those who practiced martial arts, her strength was real.

Outside the door, Huo Xiaolong and his girlfriends came to pick them up from school.
"How was your day? Tired from studying?"

The best way to shut this kind of person up is to scare him. He just wants to see if he has any backing, so just let him see it.
What did he do to you?
The girl who had just been speaking gently with a slight border town accent had vanished, replaced by an overwhelming sense of oppression.
The once-remarkable student, who was still marveling at Sun Zixi's strength, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine after seeing Huo Xiaolong's stunning face.
Is this the Prince of Zhenbei?
About the same age as me?
wrong,
They look a bit younger than me.
"I...I was just joking with her."
“A joke is one thing, but if others don’t find it funny, then it’s not a joke,” Long’er said, squinting her eyes.
"Yes...it was my fault, I apologize to Miss Sun."
As he sat on the ground marveling at how fierce the women of the border town were, the carriage had already gone far away. It was his classmates from the Imperial Academy who helped him back to his bedroom.
