Chapter 326: Chapter 325: Xue’er, It’s Up to You Now!_1

"So, what can we do? Naturally, we resist the soldiers with the generals and resist the water with the earth!"

A cold smile curved up at the corners of Su Pan’er’s mouth.

Bring it on!

Let’s see who gets the last laugh!

While they were talking, the door was gently knocked.

Jun Ruoxue asked in a displeased deep voice, "What is it?"

"Miss, it’s bad! Miss Su from outside is asking to see you." Outside, one of the maids reported.

Jun Ruoxue and Su Pan’er both froze in unison.

"Who did you say was asking to see me at the door?"

"It is Miss Yue’er from Lord Su’s household. She said that she frightened you and has specially come to apologize."

Jun Ruoxue immediately felt annoyed, "Why is she apologizing in the middle of the night? Is she creating trouble out of nothing? If she’s really here to apologize, let her demonstrate her sincerity. No dawdling!"

"But...Miss Su is kneeling outside, saying if you do not go out, she will walk in with three kneels and nine prostrations."

The maid explained nervously.

Is she forcing me? Jun Ruoxue was immediately angry!

"Then let her crawl in and see!"

"Yes."

The maid dared not counteract, she agreed then prepared to turn around and leave.

"Stop! Younger Sister Xue’er. Since she wants to come in, let her walk in. This will prevent people from accusing you of bullying others. Ruining your reputation won’t be worth it." Su Pan’er stopped her.

"Let her in? Isn’t that adding trouble for myself?"

Jun Ruoxue’s expression showed her disapproval, but she still directed her maid to bring the guest in.

"My yard is only so big, a stroll around might just bring her here. With the armed troops outside surrounding us in groups, letting her in at this time might not be a good time."

"Even if we don’t let her in, they will continue to find excuses to do so."

Su Pan’er saw this clearly. "Instead of repeatedly quarrelling, better to cut off their thoughts from the start. Right now, Sister Xue’er, you should go back and prepare, treat her as you would usually. As for the matter here, I will figure something out."

"Would this... really work?"

Jun Ruoxue hesitated. "How about you all move temporarily to the servants’ rooms instead, and we hide out there, they surely won’t search there."

"That is not certain."

Su Pan’er said with a face full of certainty, laughing.

Jun Ruoxue left, looking worried.

Su Pan’er watched as her figure disappeared around the corner, she couldn’t help but smile slightly. It was rare to see a lady from an aristocratic family as understanding as Ruoxue, who would risk herself for others.

Since she considers me a friend, from now onwards, she is indeed a true friend to me!

While she was thinking about it, it seemed as if she heard something. Her face suddenly changed and she quickly hid behind the window to peek outside, her eyes immediately filled with a cold light.

Several shadows quietly fell down from the courtyard wall, taking advantage of the opportunity when Jun Ruoxue was greeting Su Yue’er in the front yard, they jumped into the garden under cover of the night.

Well done, Su Sikong! You’re overtly taking one route but secretly taking another!

Xue’er, it’s up to you now!

Jun Ruoxue had only recently returned to her room when Su Yue’er arrived.

She carried a small yellow and white puppy in her arms, stood outside the boudoir and greeted Jun Ruoxue with her bright smile.

"Sister Yue’er pays her respects to Younger Sister Xue’er. Today’s disturbance was my fault, it caught Younger Sister Xue’er off guard. As an apology, I’ve brought some gifts for Younger Sister Xue’er."

Behind the folding screen, Jun Ruoxue’s mouth subtly curled into a smirk. She said nothing, and subtly signaled Zi Lan with her eyes.

Zi Lan gave a curtsy to Jun Ruoxue and then stood, to scoff at Su Yue’er!

"You know you’ve disturbed my young lady, yet you still come in the middle of the night? It seems you’re intentionally looking for trouble!"

Su Yue’er trembled in fear, and knelt on the floor, "Thank you, Younger Sister Xue’er for being generous and not holding grudges. Sister Yue’er sincerely came to apologize."

The two maidservants behind her were even more frightened, and immediately knelt to the ground too.

"Oh! Are you here to claim kinship or what?"

Zi Lan sneered, "Who is your sister? My young lady is not someone you can simply call sister, hmm! There are always weirdos from nowhere who try to form bonds of kinship. They should take a good look at themselves. Is my young lady someone you can call sister at will?"

Although Zi Lan usually doesn’t speak much, her words now rendered Su Yue’er speechless, her face turning from green to black with anger.

What’s more, she couldn’t even refute it.

Helpless, Su Yue’er quickly bowed her head in forgiveness while sobbing, "Xue’er... no, Miss Jun, Miss Jun, you’re generous and kind, Yue’er was thoughtless, please forgive her!"

The maids behind her also incessantly bowed their heads.

"All right! Get up, to correct one’s mistake is the greatest virtue."

Jun Ruoxue blinked her eyes, her mouth curling slightly into a smirk, but she continued in a serious tone, "Since you know you were wrong, go back and ponder upon your mistakes! An unmarried woman should not imitate those women of easy virtue, gallivanting around in the middle of the night. Understood?"

She’s asking them to leave?

Su Yue’er was taken aback and immediately rose to bow again, "Xue... Miss Jun, Yue’er knows her mistake. Therefore, she brought some items to express her apology. She hopes Miss Jun will like them."

"Zi Lan, since Miss Su sincerely apologizes, we should not lose our manners. Let her in for refreshment."

Jun Ruoxue smiled gently behind the screen, taking a sip from her tea.

Trying to play mind games with me?

They don’t know who I am. Just watch how I make their lives miserable!

It’s always been me playing with others. Yet, you have the audacity to take advantage of me, calling me sister at will. Do you think you’re worthy?

Indeed, courting one’s demise!

Su Yue’er thanked her, leading the two maidservants into the room.

She personally took the gift box from the maids’ hands and placed it on a table in front of Jun Ruoxue, then slowly opened the lid to reveal the items inside.

Jun Ruoxue was initially uninterested. After all, being in the Capital City, what good things had she not seen?

However, when her gaze fell on the items Su Yue’er brought, she couldn’t help but exclaim softly.

"Oh, what’s this?"

She examined the items with a slightly surprised expression.

"Miss Jun comes from the Capital City and is knowledgeable. Gold, silver, jade, these things wouldn’t interest you. Therefore, after some thought, I brought some locally made items that I think are quite exquisite for your enjoyment."

Su Yue’er carefully pointed to these items, "These items were made by skilled craftsmen and should add a festive atmosphere to the room. They are said to repel insects and ward off evil spirits. I hope you like them..."

As she explained, she surreptitiously watched Jun Ruoxue’s expression.

"The arrangement of these items also requires some finesse, it’s about the compatibility of Feng Shui..."
