Chapter 504 - I’ll Choose Her (2/2)

In the Qin Estate, which little la.s.s wouldn’t be ecstatic from being informed they had been chosen by Eldest Young Master or Second Young Master? Why was this person’s reaction so peculiar? It almost felt like she was about to run away any second now?

The servants quickly and deftly blocked our dear Qiao Mu’s way out, and they invited her into the Qin Estate with both the carrot and stick approach.

Qiao Mu was led to Second Qin’s court in bewilderment.

When she entered the garden, she saw quite a few red-crowned cranes fluffing their feathers with lowered beaks. They strolled leisurely through the courtyard, as if there were no one else present.

Qiao Mu looked up overhead at the lacquered plaque: Crane Garden.

She recalled those large cranes on the Holy Water Sect’s snowy peaks. When the Holy Water Sect was exterminated, those large cranes had either died or fled.

Qiao Mu automatically walked up to a red-crowned crane and stretched out a small hand, wanting to stroke that crane’s feathers, when she heard a crisp, ill-mannered, and angry rebuke enter her ears abruptly. “Insolent!”

Turning her head around, Qiao Mu saw a female draped in a white ferret-fur cloak. Half of that woman’s small and glossy face sunk into her white fur collar, revealing only a small, exquisite nose and animated eyes.

“Greetings to Miss Song.” Two servants hastily bowed in greeting towards the miss, not daring to slight her at all.

Qiao Mu’s movement halted only momentarily before she continued and stroked that red-crowned crane’s feathers. She kept a stoic face and didn’t bother one bit with the fuming Miss Song by the side.

“Who allowed you to touch it? Someone, come and chop off both her hands for me!” Miss Song’s darkened face emitted a dense and dangerous scent.

Just as she spoke, two body cultivators immediately stepped out from behind her and promptly reached for Qiao Mu’s shoulders.

“Song Yingxiu, you’re too full of yourself! Who gave you the guts to act so wantonly in my garden?” Second Qin’s frigid voice sounded from his quarters, and a chilly wind a.s.saulted the two body cultivators, immediately toppling them to the ground.
