Chapter 252: Chapter 252 – Kowtow first

Bai Chen Feng was slightly surprised and chuckled, “At least her mind is functioning and knew to seek forgiveness from this lord.”

Huan Meng Yue added, “My lord, Meng Yue suggests examining the spirit dishes properly. Huan Qing Yan’s character does not yield easily; to make such an offer without reason is highly suspicious…”

Bai Chen Feng looked at Huan Meng Yue and lifted her chin, “Is my little beauty jealous? Rest assured, this lord only has you in my heart; even if Huan Qing Yan sticks to me now, this prince still needs to think about my mood that day before considering.”

Huan Meng Yue shyly replied, “My lord, there are many eyes here. This one has heard that the dishes of the Huan Clan Restaurant are nothing special. If we are to accept, with how thick Huan Qing Yan’s skin is, she would assume that my lord had forgiven her. Her actions in the past have constantly undermined the authority of my lord…”

Bai Chen Feng’s face went cold, “Forgive? We will keep the things, but to forgive her is impossible! Tell them to scram after putting the dishes in the kitchen! If she wants forgiveness, tell Huan Qing Yan to personally come down to kowtow in front of this prince first!”

The guard followed his orders.

Huan Meng Yue glanced at the door where the servants delivering the good were waiting. One of them seemed to look familiar.

“My lord, please help Meng Yue bring the items in, Meng Yue will personally cook something good for you to eat…”

“Sure, I will listen to the beauty.”

***

Huan Qing Yan slipped out of the large kitchen’s back door when the others weren’t noticing.

This was the first time she came into the Ninth Prince Estate; however, thanks to the memory of the reincarnated girl, she had some impression of the layout of the place.

After she slipped out of the backdoor, she agilely moved about, taking multiple turns before reaching the back garden and hid within the plants.

She was now wearing the clothes of a waiter of the Huan Clan Restaurant. Giving Bai Chen Feng spirit dishes to seek forgiveness was just a ruse. Her main goal was to sneak into Bai Chen Feng’s estate.

She also had no other choice.

Huan Jiu Li was still missing, and she was unable to locate him.

Her biggest worry now was Huan Jiu Li; usually, when she encountered problems she could just seek out Ji Mo Ya but this time was different.

She had probed Ji Mo Ya, but from his tone, it did not seem like he would let the Greater Demon off, so she could only take things in her own hands.

She must locate Huan Jiu Li and persuade him to stop killing humans. It would be best that he could leave here as he could no longer stay within the Hanging Cloud Empire.

The State Teacher’s Academy had started moving, plus one more Ji Mo Ya. The longer he stayed in Hanging Cloud Capital, the more dangerous it would be for him.

Within the reincarnated girl’s memories, Huan Jiu Li last appeared in the Ninth Prince Estate. Being out of ideas, she decided to take the gamble and come here.

She did not know when he would appear. Coming today was just to see her luck.

Suddenly, Huan Qing Yan noticed an anomaly as she walked!

Hiding under the plants, were rows of ants silently crawling…

She immediately peeled away the vegetation and noticed other critters, there were snakes, toads, centipedes, scorpions etc… They covered the garden floor, moving like a tidal wave towards a specific direction!

And that direction was where Bai Chen Feng’s accommodation was!

Huan Qing Yan’s scalp went numb as the number of snakes and insects was too alarming. Wasn’t this the sign of the Greater Demon’s presence! Was the Greater Demon here already?

Indeed, everything that had happened in the previous life was brought forward; fortunately, she was still in time.
