Master Xi turned to Xi Mengdie, "What do you think?"
Xi Mengdie spoke without hesitation, "Grandfather, Mengdie can't be like this …" She touched her blackened face with reddened eyes. She could have cried her heart out but because her face was as black as charcoal, she looked particularly irritating.
"Grandfather, please find Doctor He …"
Patriarch Xi nodded and turned to Xi Er. "Do as I said."
Xi Er immediately left the hall. Under Master Xi's command, the three young ladies were brought back to their courtyards by their respective guards.
Xi Mengmei was exasperated while Xi Mengjia's eyes were filled with resentment and frustration. Xi Mengdie was the one who suffered the most. Not only was her face ruined, but she was also covered in dirt … Of the three of them, she was the one who suffered the most … How could her face be any better?
However, her face was already as black as charcoal, so no one could tell that it was her true expression.
Now that the show was over, it was time to leave. Xi Nuoying pulled Lan 'er along and was about to return to her own Cool Breeze Courtyard, but she didn't expect to be intercepted halfway.
"And here I was wondering who it was. Isn't this the good-for-nothing Miss Nine who is dragging our family down?"
Mocking laughter filled the air as Schilling's Shadow was surrounded by a group of men and women. Regardless of gender, they were all sneering at her. Among them, the Second Young Master was the one who laughed the loudest.
"Tsk tsk, look at her face. She's not even worth looking at. No wonder Young Master Jin threw her away. If I had such a good-for-nothing fiancée, I would have rebelled a long time ago. Luckily, Young Master Jin has a good temper and tolerated her for so long, haha …"
When he laughed, the crowd followed suit. As for the women, they covered their mouths and giggled softly.
Lan'er clenched her fists. These young masters and young ladies of the Xi family are too much, especially the Second Young Master. If he didn't come to cause trouble, would the young lady be laughed at by this group of people?
"That's why Second Brother, you'll never amount to anything. If you really want to learn from Young Master Jin, you're just drawing a tiger instead of a dog."
The laughter stopped abruptly. Everyone stared at Schilling's Shadow in disbelief. She dared to talk back?
Since when did she have the guts to do this?
Second Young Master Xi narrowed his eyes and stared at Schilling's Shadow. Schilling's Shadow stood with his chest puffed out and his head held high. There was even a faint smile on his face.
This was not the Schilling's Shadow he was familiar with. His expression darkened. He raised his hand and was about to poke Schilling's Shadow's head like he used to. "You piece of trash, how dare you talk back?"
His finger was in mid-air, but it was caught by two fair and slender fingers. Schilling's Shadow sneered, "Second Brother, are you trying to beat me up because you can't win an argument?"
Everyone was stunned by her move. Not only did Schilling's Shadow talk back, he even blocked her attack! This was truly a miraculous event.
Look at her attitude, she's clearly unrestrained. There's no trace of her usual cowardice.
Did Schilling's Shadow hurt her head? How did the situation turn 180 degrees?
"You … You think I can't win an argument against a piece of trash?" Second Young Master Xi was also confused. However, there was no way he would embarrass himself in front of so many people.
Schilling's Shadow shrugged and looked at the thick finger between his fingers.
