Chapter 199: Something Strange
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After dealing with all the troublesome matters, Xue Fanxin walked towards the Heavenly Treasures Trading Company with Fuyun, planning to eat at the First Restaurant.
Just as she was about to reach the restaurant’s door, Xue Fanxin suddenly stopped and said to the empty s.p.a.ce in front of her, “Zhuri, call everyone out. I’ll treat you to a feast today.”
When the Night Shadow Guards heard her words, they were so shocked that they almost revealed themselves. If not for their strict training, those who paid attention would have already caught glimpses of them.
However, her words warmed their hearts.
As Night Shadow Guards, they often lived in the dark. Almost no one knew of their existence. Even their master probably only knew their serial numbers.
!!
But so what?
If not for their master, they would probably have a problem even surviving on the streets. Even if they lived in the darkness, at least they were still alive. This was good enough for them.
Zhuri had not expected Xue Fanxin to make such a decision. Although he found it against the rules, it was an order from the consort.
The master’s orders were higher than any rule.
“Everyone, come out.”
As Zhuri’s voice sounded, the hidden Night Shadow Guards all came out of the shadows. They mysteriously appeared beside Xue Fanxin and knelt on one knee respectfully. “We—”
Before the Night Shadow Guards could finish, Xue Fanxin interrupted them. “No, no, no… Just call me Miss outside. As for that greeting, we’ll talk about it in the future. Everyone, stop kneeling. Get up, get up.”
If she let these people call her consort, what was the need of hiding her ident.i.ty?
“Since you say so, Miss, we’ll listen to your orders.” Zhuri stood up first. The other Night Shadow Guards followed his lead, but they still waited obediently without breaking any rules.
Xue Fanxin admired these Night Shadow Guards, but at the same time, she was also speechless. She felt that they were too rigid. But thinking about it, it made sense. They were only doing their duty.
She really did not know how Ah Jiu had trained these outstanding guards.
“l have some extra money today, so I’ll treat you all to a big meal. Order whatever you want. There’s no need to be polite.” Xue Fanxin was straightforward. She generously led the group of Night Shadow Guards into the First Restaurant.
The clerk knew about Xue Fanxin. Furthermore, his had ordered that if this girl were to visit the First Restaurant again, she must be treated well and not be slighted,
While Xue Fanxin was enjoying a hearty feast in the First Restaurant with the Night Shadow Guards, many in the city did not even have an appet.i.te.
“What did you say? That Fanjiu actually has a Great Spirit Master protecting her in secret?” After failing to achieve her goal, Su Baifeng was in an extremely bad mood. The more she thought, the angrier she became. In a rage, she swept all the food on the table onto the ground and screamed, “Trash, they are all useless.”
Seeing Su Baifeng blow up, Huangyi was so frightened that she dropped to her knees. As her personal maid, she understood her master a little and knew what to say. “Miss, what happened today was really strange. That Fanjiu first fought with the Lian family, then with the Xue sisters, and then even the Yi family’s Second Master. However, despite beating up so many people, all of whom are famous and important people in Heavenly Saints City, the patrolling guards never made an appearance.”
Su Baifeng was originally very angry, but after hearing Huangyi’s words, her emotions calmed down a little. She started a.n.a.lyzing this matter properly. As time pa.s.sed, she felt that something was wrong.
“She offended three of the four great clans, but the city patrol guard still didn’t appear. Who on earth is this Fanjiu?”
After causing such a huge commotion, even the current prince might not be able to escape easily, yet this Fanjiu was completely fine.
It seemed that this person was not simple. She was even someone that the Prime Minister’s Estate could not afford to offend.
Luckily, she hadn’t gone out personally like Lian Bingmeng. Otherwise, offending her would have been a huge problem.
Anyway, she did not have much hatred for Fanjiu. It would not be too late to think of a way to deal with her in the future.
Just as Su Baifeng was trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart, a servant ran over and said in a panic, “Miss, something bad has happened. The Prime Minister has been taken away by the Ministry of Justice.”
“What did you say?”.
