Shengjing Noble

Chapter 696 Shameless

"I... I'm not convenient right now. How about you wait until I'm not busy and then I'll go get it with you?"

"Okay." Ji Qingluo nodded in agreement.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

"Princess, please tell me what you want to say."

"I encountered a bad guy who was following me before. Fortunately, someone helped me, otherwise I might be in danger."

Ji Qingluo was very nervous and looked at her worriedly.

"What? How could this happen! Is the princess okay? Where are the guards around you?"

Fu Muyin explained, "I'm fine. Fortunately, the people who rescued me showed up in time. As for the guards around me, they were all men. I'm already an adult, and I felt a little uncomfortable with men watching me, so I dismissed them all."

“It’s really inconvenient when you think about it this way.”

"Yes, so I want to ask you, do you know a woman with strong martial arts skills? I'm willing to pay any price. I want to hire a female bodyguard."

"There are quite a few women who are good at martial arts. If you need any, I can help you choose one."

"Then we need to find out the details of this person's character."

"Of course, Princess, just leave it to me."

"Thank you so much, Master Ji, you helped me a lot."

Fu Muyin was extremely happy. When she thought about going to see her mother soon, she couldn't help but feel full of anticipation.

"It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning..." Ji Qingluo smiled shyly.

She stood up, her eyes full of impatience: "Shall we go get the map first?"

"Uh, so anxious? Didn't you say wait..."

"I'm not busy right now, let's go!"

Fu Muyin grabbed his arm, and then the two of them left through the back door.

……

Ji family.

Ji Qingluo brought Fu Muyin to Ji's house.

Looking at the extremely luxurious house, she couldn't help but sigh that the Ji family was indeed wealthy enough to rival a country. Even the door threshold seemed to be made of gold.

"Princess, please come in..."

"Master Ji, you don't have to call me Princess outside. Just call me by my name."

Ji Qingluo blushed and then spoke nervously.

"...Muyin."

"Let's go in."

"Ah."

After the two of them went in, Ji Qingluo asked Fu Muyin to sit in the front hall and wait, and arranged for the maid to serve tea, while he went to the study to look for a detailed map.

Not long after she left, Mrs. Ji, who heard that her son had brought back a woman, could no longer sit still and quickly ran to the front hall.

When she reached the door, Fu Muyin was drinking water from a teacup.

After running all the way, she felt a little thirsty, and the tea was not very hot, so she drank it all in one gulp.

Mrs. Ji looked at her, but thought she was behaving frivolously, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

How can someone come uninvited without being invited by the host?

This woman is probably not a good person.

So she said in a cold voice: "Oh, I don't know which family this young lady is from, but she actually followed my son into the house."

Fu Muyin was drinking tea. When she heard the voice, she quickly put down the teacup but did not stand up.

She was a princess and had no habit of standing up all the time. Even when she was with the Queen and the Queen Mother, they loved her and did not require her to perform formalities, but there were more rules to follow on a daily basis.

For example, eating, walking, sitting, standing and talking styles.

Mrs. Ji was even more displeased when she saw that he did not stand up to greet her.

The maid next to her scolded, "What kind of girl are you? You are so rude. Can't you see my wife is here? Why don't you stand up and salute?"

Fu Muyin frowned, somewhat disgusted with the old woman in front of her.

But on second thought, since I was asking for help first, I should be polite to the owner of the house.

So she stood up reluctantly: "Hello, Madam. My name...is Lu."

"Lu? I've never heard of such a family. Where are you from? What does your family do?"

Fu Muyin frowned. What did this woman mean?

Want to investigate her?

She was reluctant in her heart but spoke honestly. However, she only said half of it and hid the other half.

"My family...runs a restaurant."

It should be considered as such, my third uncle said, Zuixianlou was left by my mother, so he has been running it with great care until now, isn’t it the most important business in the family?

"A restaurant? It's really a small one. That monster exudes a petty air."

Mrs. Ji rolled her eyes in disdain, and the disgust in her eyes was evident.

Fu Muyin didn't like her behavior, so she couldn't help it and asked back.

"Madam, do you think the restaurant is not good?"

"A restaurant business that requires people to come and go and be in the spotlight is not decent after all."

"Unseemly?" She laughed. "What business are you in?"

Madam Ji was stunned, and raised her chin proudly: "I am the mistress of the Ji family, so naturally I don't need to do business."

"So she is supported by someone. If someone is not doing shady business outside, I'm sure the lady won't be able to stand here so leisurely."

There was a sting in Fu Muyin's words, and Mrs. Ji immediately became angry and embarrassed.

"What do you mean? Don't think that my son brought you back because he likes you. I've seen many women like you!"

"Seen a lot? I don't think so."

"What, you don't believe it?"

"I don't care about the people my wife has met. It's not between me and your son. We are just ordinary friends."

"Humph, you still want to be friends with my son?"

"correct."

"Then tell me, how did you and my son get to know each other?"

"At the theater, he took the initiative to invite me to watch a play."

"She is indeed a restless woman. How can a decent woman go to the theater to watch a play with a strange man?"

The maid next to her chimed in, "If she was serious, would she follow the young master home? She really has no sense of shame."

"How did your elders teach you? How could they allow you to be so casual!"

Mrs. Ji scolded angrily, her eyes full of contempt.

Fu Muyin understood that she didn't know her identity, so she didn't really get angry or blame her at first.

But at this moment, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"You said I'd forget it, but why did you bring my elders with you?"

Her father and mother were not around since she was young, so it can be said that she was raised by the emperor, the empress, and the queen mother together.

This Madam Ji is so bold that she actually dares to cause trouble for these three people.

"If you were not ill-educated, would I need to say anything? Why, you dare not take responsibility for what you did? I really want to see what kind of people your elders are like, to have educated such an unruly little girl!"

If Fu Muyin continued to listen, she was afraid that the Ji family would kill all nine generations of the clan.

She didn't want to argue with them for the time being because of Ji Qingluo's help.

So she stood up and said, "I advise you to stop at the right time, otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

"Heh~ What do you mean? Are you trying to scare me? I'm telling you, this is the Ji family. I'm here, so don't even think about entering my house. My son doesn't have the final say!"

Seeing that the other party still didn't know whether to live or die, Fu Muyin said: "I'm too lazy to argue with you. Tell Ji Qingluo that I'm leaving today."

After saying that, she walked around Mrs. Ji and left the front hall.
