Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 14
Chapter 14 Stop! Let Me Do It!
There was still an inexplicable pursuit behind him. Qiao Yunxi relied on his petite figure and agile movements to desperately drill into the crowd.
What a coincidence. Today, the porridge stall of the Duke’s Mansion of Zhen Yuan was placed at the back door of the Duke’s Mansion. Although there were servants maintaining order, the situation was chaotic. Qiao Xi ignored them and sneaked into the Duke’s Mansion right in front of their eyes.
Her idea was simple.
The mansion of a wealthy family was not something that ordinary people dared to enter, so she could be considered out of danger. As for how to get out?
Qiao Yunxi had never thought that if she was really caught, she would be fine if she reported her name and identity.
However, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she saw the black condom chasing after him in front of everyone’s eyes!
Qiao Yunxi was dumbfounded.
This is the Duke’s Mansion of Zhen Yuan, isn’t it?
Is this kind of high gate courtyard really good?
Her little feet rolled so fast that she ran headlessly towards the backyard.
There were women living in the backyard, and the guards were strict. It was relatively difficult for a man to barge in.
Being blocked by the crowd outside the mansion, Black Condom’s movements were obviously much slower than Qiao Xi’s. After Qiao Xi turned a few corners, she heard the voice from afar.
It was as if Little Maid was complaining, but the voice was getting closer and closer. After passing the arch, she was exposed.
There were pursuers behind and ambushes ahead. Qiao Yunxi panicked and turned into the courtyard on his left.
Qiao Xi was a little surprised that there was no one in the courtyard.
After adjusting her panicked breathing, she passed through the vestibule and went straight to the small garden on the left.
It was said to be a small garden, but in fact, it was a green space opened up by the owner in the courtyard. There were no flowers and plants, but vegetables.
Wasn’t this from a wealthy family’s courtyard?
Qiao Xi leisurely walked to the green space.
It’s all cabbage.
Cabbage, cabbage, cabbage.
A cabbage meeting?
Squatting on the ground, she casually pulled at a few weeds in the field, counting the time and wondering when she could get them out.
She was too focused. When she heard the rustling of footsteps behind her, she had no time to react.
Although she had changed her body, her instincts were still there. Her back was tense, but she pretended to stand up slowly and easily.
Turning around, his big dark eyes blinked as he looked at the old man behind him.
It was an old woman. The clothes she wore looked ordinary, but the materials were very exquisite.
Is it Mammy or Master?
No wonder Qiao Yunxi couldn’t figure out the situation. No matter how Marquis Zhen Yuan put it, he was still a noble prince. The Mammy with a face was first-class in terms of style and bearing.
She laughed dryly and shook the weeds in her hand. “Granny, I’ll just take a look. By the way, pull the weeds. You don’t have to thank me for it. It’s a piece of cake.”
That’s serious.
Madam Lu looked at the little girl in front of her amusedly.
So, people, sometimes it’s so strange, knowing that this is a trespassing girl, even before they know if it’s an enemy or a friend, they have inexplicably closed her eyes.
She didn’t like her so much at first sight, but Madam Lu didn’t hate her.
Qiao Yunxi smiled embarrassedly, “Well, Granny, I accidentally came in because I was …”
“Where are you running?”
His murderous tone was heavy, and before he could show himself, his aura had already arrived.
Qiao Yunxi’s entire body trembled, and his face was unprecedentedly solemn.
Breaking into the manor by mistake was originally a helpless move, but she could not bring danger to the people of the manor because of her own reasons.
Not to mention …
She rolled her eyes craftily.
Duke mansion has guards, hidden guards, and so on. As long as she resists these people a little before they arrive, it can be considered a merit, right?
In the end, he shouldn’t settle the score with her, right?
After thinking about it so much, it was only in the blink of an eye.
Qiao Xi pounced on him with a movement.
Almost at the same time that she made her move, the black condom landed in front of her, and Qiao Xi’s position was estimated to be very accurate.
The old woman behind him raised her eyebrows, her face full of interest.
Gu Jinzhen had already pulled out his sword. Qiao Xi was bare-handed. How could she be his opponent?
However, Qiao Yunxi was also a smart person. He was directly close to Gu Jinzhen, but he didn’t give him the chance to swing his sword.
“You know martial arts?” Gu Jinzhen obviously did not expect Qiao Yunxi to be so difficult to deal with.
After he was surprised, he suddenly realized, “Sure enough, it’s hidden. I underestimated you. Today, I’ll see what else you’re hiding!”
“Psychotic!” Qiao Xi scolded coquettishly, “You’re the one who’s embarrassed, your entire family is!”
“Impudent!” Gu Jinzhen became furious with embarrassment. He used eighteen martial arts skills, but he still couldn’t get rid of Qiao Yunxi’s entanglement.
Qiao Yunxi didn’t make a move. He only stuck close to Gu Jinzhen, but didn’t give him the chance to catch her.
Actually, her moves weren’t very powerful. Even though she knew martial arts before crossing over, the equipment on her body couldn’t support her skills. She only circled around the black condom a few times, and she clearly felt that her strength was exhausted. No matter how fast she breathed, it wouldn’t be able to relieve the suffocation on her chest.
Her movements slowed down obviously.
After the initial rage, Gu Jinzhen gradually regained his rationality, so he easily regained his advantage. Instead of following Qiao Yunxi around, he found the gap between the two of them, raised his hand, and waved his sword!
“Pa!”
An imperceptible air-piercing sound could be heard.
Gu Jinzhen’s body stiffened and his sword landed on the ground. His gaze was obscure as he looked at the old woman who had been standing on the spot.
“Granny, don’t be afraid. I’ll deal with him!”
Qiao Yunxi was a human spirit. She knew how to make use of the favorable weather to protect the old woman. The people of Duke mansion would not let her go. No matter what, they should come out to protect her. She would be able to escape later.
