"I dare," both Fu Tianlin and Xuanyuan Rui said, one expressing it in his heart while the other boldly spoke it out loud.
"You don't need to worry about that; you aren't qualified to meddle with my woman," Xuanyuan Rui, who had been standing beside Qing Luan, could no longer remain silent. He reached out and wrapped his arm around Qing Luan's waist, declaring possessively.
"Uh!" Qing Luan stared in shock at the hand that had wrapped around her slim waist, left speechless for a moment.
Please, who are you? We don't seem to know each other at all. When did I become your woman? She felt a sense of dissatisfaction but knew that given the situation, he was doing this for his own benefit. She could only endure it for now.
"Your woman?" Lin Ya pointed at the inexplicably appearing man and mocked, "Heh, you dare to compete with Young Marquis for a woman? You really must want to die!"
"Little White," Xuanyuan Rui dismissed her with a wave of his hand. Mimicking Qing Luan's earlier half-squatting posture, he affectionately patted its head and said, "You say she's disrespectful to your master? You didn't pounce on Little Wolf just now; how about you take her down instead?"
Upon hearing his words, Qing Luan's forehead twitched with black lines, and her mouth quivered as she nearly burst into laughter—this cunning master was actually trying to provoke Little White!
"Ugh..." Little White didn't howl but let out a low growl of threat. This meant little to Qing Luan, but for Lin Ya and the onlookers, it felt threatening. Everyone instinctively took a few steps back, leaving Lin Ya alone in the middle.
"You all..." Lin Ya realized she had been isolated and immediately wanted to curse them out. However, considering the white wolf that was fixated on her, she swallowed hard and nervously shouted, "Chen Qingluan, if you threaten me like this, do you know who I am? If you dare let your wolf bite me, my father will definitely not let you off!"
"Heh..." Qing Luan found amusement in her threat. "Miss Lin, I won't blame you for having a pig's brain; that's not your fault—it’s your parents' fault for not discussing it properly when they had you. But what are those two big eyes on your face for? Decoration? I’m worried Little White might get its mouth dirty biting you!" By the end of her statement, she wore an expression of disdain.
Hmph, in the Chen Family, she had kept a low profile, being gentle and submissive—whatever they said went... But now, regardless of who she was, she wouldn't tolerate such baseless humiliation.
"Heh..." The onlookers laughed at her words, covering their mouths. Even Sister Yun in the crowd was laughing so hard that tears streamed down her face. Bai Feiyang was even more exaggerated; he laughed uncontrollably while clapping his hands in delight—how could such a sharp-tongued girl be underestimated?
"You... despicable! How dare you insult me?" Lin Ya realized that she had been compared to something less than a dog and charged forward in anger. Qing Luan calmly stepped back a pace and stood behind Xuanyuan Rui... Even she didn't know why she did this; after all, she had become his woman for free once—he should protect her.
"Xiao Bai, go!" Xuanyuan Rui was also a lazy person, no, he was cunning; he simply couldn't be bothered to do it himself and retreated behind Xiao Bai, shouting.
Did this girl really expect him to take action personally? She thought that if Xiao Bai bit someone, it would dirty Xiao Bao's mouth, but she didn't think it would dirty his hands? Moreover, if he had someone to use, why waste his own effort?
"Ugh!" Xuanyuan Rui's actions left Qing Luan speechless as she looked up at him—she was starting to appreciate this man. Hehe, he suited her temperament perfectly.
"Wow..." Lin Ya, who had been ready to throw punches, couldn't handle the pressure when she saw Xiao Bai baring its teeth and slowly approaching her. She screamed and fled in a panic, while her maid and guards discreetly followed behind her in a mad dash—Qing Luan couldn't be bothered to intervene even if they made a scene.
As the onlookers dispersed, Qing Luan exchanged a smile with Xuanyuan Rui; something within their hearts began to change slowly...
"Clap, clap..." Sister Yun, who had been watching the commotion, clapped her hands and walked over with a cheerful expression. "Wow, that was so satisfying! Those spoiled young ladies should have received a harsh lesson long ago to make them realize how precious basic necessities are!"
"Sister Yun," Qing Luan couldn't help but chuckle at her words. "They are pampered; they don't need to worry about such mundane things!" This was the truth; those young ladies were so spoiled that they hardly recognized their own mothers.
In a place like the capital where one could easily encounter a large group of officials, even she had to be cautious. The audacity of Lin Ya showed just how ignorant and pitiful she truly was.
Sister Yun didn't continue to linger on Qing Luan's words but instead curiously blinked at the imposing man beside them and asked ambiguously, "Who is he? How come I can't find such good fortune after just one trip to the mountains?"
"Shui Moli," Qing Luan casually introduced as they walked towards Jade Pavilion. "This is Sister Yun, the Boss of Jade Pavilion!" She wouldn't reveal her own background; how others perceived her was irrelevant compared to how Shui Moli viewed her.
Unfortunately, Qing Luan didn't know that Xuanyuan Rui was already aware of everything she had done in the fishing village. He merely brushed off her words as if they were nothing more than idle chatter.
A person like her would never be content as a maid; who could possibly contain her domineering spirit?
" Luan'er, how can you use me and then just abandon me?" Xuanyuan Rui lamented as he approached her, feeling wronged by her apparent indifference.
Qing Luan wanted to say something helplessly, but when she met Sister Yun's gaze, which was filled with suspicion, she could only pout and remain silent.
If she tried to explain further, Sister Yun would likely pursue the matter relentlessly.
She had initially intended to greet Xuanyuan Rui, but seeing that he hadn’t noticed them at all, and realizing that Chen Qingluan was unaware of his true identity, he turned to avoid them. They didn’t know Xuanyuan Rui’s identity, and if he pointed it out, it would probably lead to trouble, so they didn’t linger.
“Is it them…?” A-Song did not approach. The relationship between Ruyi Tower and Jade Pavilion had always been ambiguous, so he remained quiet in the crowd, unlike Sister Yun who was more conspicuous. Upon spotting Bai Feiyang and Fu Tianlin in the crowd, he squinted his eyes and murmured before making his way toward Ruyi Tower.
“You can’t go in here,” Xuanyuan Rui had just intended to follow Qing Luan inside when someone came out and blocked his way.
“ Luan'er,” as soon as he was stopped, Xuanyuan Rui called out pitifully. However, the person entering didn’t turn back; instead, they coldly tossed out a remark: “Only women can enter… you figure it out!”
“Haha…” Those inside or at the door chuckled quietly upon hearing this.
