Chapter 217.2: Who Is Better At Bootlicking Here

Qing Yu then replied with a depreciating smile. “Aren’t you the one who said that I must not carelessly get into fights before my injuries are healed?”

[Just having to drink that horrible medicinal brew alone was bad enough. If she still doesn’t lie low, he might very well dream up more ways to torment her!]

As expected, upon hearing those words, Bai Zhi Yan nodded his head happily. “That’s right. Your injuries will heal faster when you do as you’re told.”

“…..” Qing Yu did not even want to say anything.

Bai Zhi Yan must have stayed at Lou Jun Yao’s side for too long, seeing that their antics were a little similar here. Especially that wide beaming smile on their faces that somehow drove a chill up a person’s spine, that looked highly intimidating.

At least for Jiang Shang Lin, the moment that Bai Zhi Yan appeared, he had immediately felt his knees go weak for some unknown reason.

Bai Zhi Yan turned to look smilingly at the man. “This patron here would do well to clean your eyes good and proper next time. Do not just go hitting on any pretty girl you see so carelessly. There’s always a mountain higher than the one you see and there are many people you cannot afford to offend. Remember my warning to you here today, and you’ll be able to live for a few more years.”

The la.s.s Qing Yu was not some soft persimmon that could be easily kneaded and manipulated. Although her temper was rather good most of the time and also had a kind heart, but if one were to really get her riled up, the ways she knew of tormenting a person were endless.

Seeing the man who suddenly appeared being so protective of Qing Yu, no matter how aggrieved he felt, Jiang Shang Lin did not think it prudent to insist on taking the young lady away. Afterall, the man seemed deep and unfathomable, even stronger than his elder brother, and he was not about to go stub his toe on such a hard steel plate. He had no choice but to give up and swallow the indignity here today.

“Your humble Jiang here has caused undue affront. I shall take my leave.” Jiang Shang Lin opened his mouth to say haltingly, his face dark as he turned around to walk out of Fragrance Court.

He would probably not want to set foot in this place ever again.

Seeing that the man is gone, Bai Zhi Yan then kept that fake and insincere smile away, before he started to preach endlessly to Qing Yu once again.

Qing Yu remained silent. “…..” [So terrifying.]

She had just come to realize just how much of a nag Bai Zhi Yan really was, and really had great potential in becoming a nanny.

“Who is she?” Seeing her lord in waiting acting so familiar with the young lady, Lu Ji could not help but feel bewildered. This was the first time she was seeing this young lady in this place, so when did her lord come to know her?

Lian Ji laughed softly. “She can already be considered as a regular patron of our Fragrance Court. You were not around during that period and you have naturally not seen her before.”

“She and my lord are…..”

Lian Ji looked at the young lady who had a look of defeat on her face and Lian Ji’s eyes flashed with a glint. “She was the one who cured the poison our Overlord was afflicted with. Thinking back on it, it must have been the work of fate. Haven’t you realized that she’s the same little thief who stole the Polar Fire Core from us a few years back?”
