Chapter 638, Step by Step, Heart-Stopping
Lin Jiu and his group were not slow, because Guo Luoluo Minghui was walking briskly ahead of them.
Her face was full of worry, clearly concerned about whether her younger sister was alright; so despite her quick steps, she still seemed somewhat flustered and at a loss.
However, even so, when they arrived at their destination, they were still a little too late.
Before she even got close, Lin Jiu could hear a crisp and loud slap coming from afar.
The sound exploded in the air like thunder, making her furrow her brow and twitch her lips.
To hear such a clear sound coming from her demonstrates just how heavy the blow was!
Immediately afterwards, a sharp, piercing shout, tinged with a sob, rang out: "Ma'ertai Ruoxi, how dare you hit me!"
Before the words were even finished, another equally loud and impassioned response followed: So what if I hit you! You clearly deserved it, you deserved to be hit!
Seeing the situation getting worse, the Eighth Prince's wife could no longer suppress her anger and anxiety.
She wore exquisite and ornate platform shoes, but that did not hinder her from rushing towards her sister at lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, the Eighth Prince's wife had arrived beside her younger sister and quickly knelt down to help her up.
At this moment, Mingyu was covering her face, her whole body soaked and looking as disheveled as a drowned rat.
Seeing this, the Eighth Prince's wife was heartbroken. She quickly took a thick cloak from her personal maid and gently draped it over her sister's frail body, asking with concern: "Mingyu, are you alright?"
Guo Luoluo Mingyu clung tightly to her sister's arms like a wounded little rabbit, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam, looking utterly pitiful.
Just now, she was overwhelmed by Ruoxi's aura, and the grievances she had been holding in had nowhere to go. Now that she finally found an outlet, she poured everything out: "Sister, she hit me... Waaaaah..."
At the same time, Lin Jiu was also spotted by the sharp-eyed Yin Tang, who quickly pulled her to his side to watch the show unfold.
The other princes and their wives all looked on with expressions of anticipation, as if they were watching a good show.
At this moment, Ruoxi was already extremely agitated—first, she accidentally fell into the water and wet her clothes, and then she heard Mingyu's endless sobbing, which made her already somewhat restless and uneasy emotions even more difficult to control.
Finally, she could no longer bear it. She straightened up abruptly, pointed a finger at Mingyu, and threatened her fiercely, "Shut up! Stop crying! Stop crying!"
In an instant, the entire scene seemed to freeze in time, completely silent, with no one daring to make a sound.
Everyone was stunned by Ruoxi's sudden actions. No one expected that she, who looked so beautiful and lovely, would have such a fierce and shrewish side.
Lin Jiu stared wide-eyed at the female protagonist, Ma'ertai Ruoxi, who had transmigrated into his body, wishing he could rush up and give her a thumbs up and say "Wow!"
999, because 6 was flipped.
After all, this is not the relatively free and equal society of the 21st century, but the Qing Dynasty, a feudal dynasty with strict hierarchy and extreme emphasis on family background.
The father of the Ma'ertai sisters was just an ordinary general, but Guo Luoluo Mingyu was different. Her mother was a princess, a member of the royal family, and she herself was a Gege (a Manchu noblewoman), which naturally put her above Ruoxi.
