Chapter 3.1 (2/2)

”There was no harm done. It was only a verification.” Su Ying was scared that the man she had knocked unconscious would wake up. A flash of pretend fear appeared on her face before she added on: ”The day is not early. Would Sir mind if the investigation was carried out at a faster pace?”

After seeing the scared Su Ying, that officer felt a sense of guilt. He quickly ordered his men to check the carriage. Originally, the other carriages would also be torn apart by their swords. However, for this carriage, he actually raised his hand and said, ”Let it pa.s.s!”

”Has Sir checked it thoroughly?” Su Ying's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was worried.

That officer felt a sense of pity towards the girl. He decided to get onto his horse, cupping one fist with his hand in a sign of apology before shouting loudly, ”Please excuse the interruption. You may go!”

Seeing him go off, Lu Hen wiped off the sweat on her forehead, ”Young Miss, that was too frightening. If we were found out…”

”Your family's Young Miss' dictionary has never had the words 'If, that happened' those type of unreliable words.” Su Ying's lips curved slightly in a perfect curve as she said confidently.

Sure enough, her face was perfect for deceiving others. She was great at pretending to be a pure and innocent little white lotus.

As the horse carriage continued on, Lu Hen suddenly said, ”Young Miss… he seems to have woken.”

The wooden panel on the bottom of the carriage was being hit fiercely. If no one paid attention, then the whole carriage may have been torn apart by the man.

”You go out first.” Su Ying thought about it before deciding.

When Lu Hen left, Su Ying's hand was ready to press the b.u.t.ton to open the mechanism when she stopped. She put on a peony flower mask first before finally opening the mechanism.

I’m pretty sure the officer just got played like a violin…
