I glared at Qi Chenxuan dissatisfied: “You can be angry with me, but why scare them?”
Qi Chenxuan shrugged nonchalantly: “I was just reminding them. After all, if the master makes a mistake, it’s mostly because the maids didn’t advise properly, right? You just arrived at the Wang Mansion, and there’s a lot you don’t know. I won’t blame you for making mistakes, but if they’ve been here so long and still don’t understand, what use are they in the mansion?”
I suddenly realized that this guy wasn’t as harmless as he appeared, sending a chill down my spine: “No matter what, since you’ve assigned them to me, they are now my people.”
I won’t allow you to casually drive them out of the mansion!”
Qi Chenxuan looked at me provocatively: “And why not?”
“Because, because…” I became anxious, my mind going blank, unable to think of any reason. After a long pause, I said: “Because I like them. If you drive them away, I’ll definitely leave without hesitation! I believe the rumors about you will only increase!”
Qi Chenxuan clenched his fist, gritting his teeth and glaring at me: “You dare to threaten me?”
I dismissively curled my lips: “Who’s threatening you? I’m just stating a fact! But it seems the Crown Prince has agreed!”
I thought Qi Chenxuan would be even more angry, but unexpectedly, he just smiled faintly, his eyes looking playful: “It seems you’re more quick-witted than I imagined!”
I responded with a proud smile, pretending not to hear the mockery in his words: “Thank you for the praise, Your Highness! If there’s nothing else, we’ll return to our rooms!”
After walking a few steps, I turned back with a charming smile: “By the way, the days in this mansion are quite boring. If the Crown Prince ever feels like telling me a story, I’ll be more than welcome!”
Qi Chenxuan’s phoenix eyes narrowed, glaring at me angrily: “Woman, don’t be too pleased with yourself!”
I continued to provoke him fearlessly: “We’re even!
This humble woman comes from a poor background and doesn’t know many rules. I’ll need Your Highness to guide me in many things!”
