When Hua Mei heard Yun Qianyu’s voice, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief and joy and she quickly hurried off to prepare some water.
Hua Mei had been pretty worried earlier when Yun Qianyu stayed in her room for so long.
Now that she heard the young miss speaking, she could finally let go of her worries.
Hua Mei and Little Bell soon entered the room carrying water and another bath bucket with them.
Upon coming in, the two were shocked when they saw that the scabs on Yun Qianyu’s face had fallen off. Although there were still scars left on her face, they were only pink scars. Her face did not seem so ferocious anymore.
Hua Mei then said happily, “Miss, all the scabs on your face are gone.”
Hearing this, Yun Qianyu raised her hand and touched her face. The rough scabs on her face were indeed gone and when she looked down she saw that the scabs on her body had fallen off as well. Only a few shallow pink scars were left. These were not particularly ugly, which was much better than before.
This also meant that she would have an easier time removing the scars and restoring her beauty.
Thinking about this, Yun Qianyu gestured for Hua Mei and Little Bell to change the water.
Yun Qianyu then cleaned her body with the fresh water until she had removed the last of the sticky liquid from her skin. After she cleaned herself, Hua Mei used a clean towel to wipe down her body.
“Miss, as per your order, I selected five sets of jewelry and sent them to Li Prince’s residence. Originally, I was worried whether Li Prince would make things difficult, but now it seems his Highness is alright with it.”
Not only was Hua Mei surprised, but Yun Qianyu was also shocked by Xiao Jiuyuan’s reaction.
Clearly, he was trying to cause some trouble when he asked for the nine thousand Liang silver. That was why Yun Qianyu thought that Xiao Jiuyuan would be angry to receive, instead of money, the five sets of jewelry.
‘From what I know about him, this shouldn’t be his reaction. If he didn’t show up, he’s probably caught up with something, or he’s in a good mood tonight.’
Thinking about this, Yun Qianyu walked out of her room and saw Little Bell coming to her. With a bright smile on her face Little Bell said, “Big sister Yun, dinner is ready. We can eat now.”
Yun Qianyu immediately frowned at her words and she felt speechless, ‘This girl is probably happiest when eating food.’
“Let’s go.”
Following the group from behind, Marten Lord suddenly sensed something and said with a stern voice, “Master, someone is coming.”
As soon as he said that, he soared into the air and attacked the person hidden by darkness.
He moved at an incredible speed and in the blink of an eye a male voice screamed “Ah! Scram you little sh*t. How dare you attack me?”
Yun Qianyu was surprised when she recognized Xiao Yechen’s voice. ‘Wasn’t Xiao Yechen brought to the barracks of the Dragon Scale Army for training? How could he be here?’
“Xiao Yechen, aren’t you supposed to be in the barracks of the Dragon Scale Army? Why have you come here?”
As soon as Yun Qianyu asked that, Xiao Yechen remembered why he had rushed over and he ignored the marten. With a flip and a dash, Xiao Yechen quickly reached Yun Qianyu and he said anxiously, “Feather, the Dragon Scale Army was attacked at night. The commander-general Feng Teng was seriously injured and was hit by an arrow in the heart. All the doctors are at a loss so my ninth imperial uncle has asked for you.”
Xiao Yechen had a very worried look on his face. After all, Feng Teng had always been highly valued by his ninth imperial uncle. It could even be said that Feng Teng was his right arm, that was how important this man was to Xiao Jiuyuan.
