Chapter 267: Frightened in the First Prince’s Residence (1/2)

Ming Lu was cursing silently. The servant really takes after her master. Young Lady Luo Chu is so overbearing... Her personal servant has the same personality...

Ming Lu couldn’t help sighing as he thought that he was really having a bad day.

They arrived at the study room in the blink of the eye. Cai Ling said to Ming Lu, “Go in and notify your Master that we are here. Let me do the talking.”

Due to the fear of Pei Rumo overhearing her statement, Cai Ling had suppressed her voice to the best of her abilities. But Pei Rumo was far superior to her and had naturally heard all the commotion outside. In fact, he heard them clearly. He then spoke to Ming Lu from within the study room, “Ming Lu, since there is a guest, why don’t you quickly invite her in? Why are you waiting outside?”

Ming Lu was complaining in his heart and he knew that things weren’t going to end well.

Cai Ling frowned in response and felt that the First Prince was truly hard to deal with. It seemed like she had to be very cautious today. It was fine if she was to lose her life, but the important matter was her mistress losing her support and being alone in the general’s residence.

Ming Lu looked at Cai Ling who had a fearless look on her face and immediately opened the door. She bowed to Pei Rumo before speaking, “This servant is Young Lady Luo Chu’s personal servant, Cai Ling. I hope Your First Highness will forgive me for the intrusion.”

Pei Rumo looked at Cai Ling whose every move was neither obsequious nor supercilious.

Interesting. Pei Rumo was a little angry because Bai Luochu had rejected his invitation. But right now, he wanted to see how capable Bai Luochu’s personal servant was.

Pei Rumo made fun of Cai Ling, “You are a rather interesting servant girl. Your Mistress didn’t say a thing and you actually decided to come over and speak with me. Are you not afraid that I might order to have you killed?”

Cai Ling heard what Pei Rumo said but she didn’t feel an ounce of fear. “Your First Highness definitely knows about the situation in the general’s residence. My Young Lady only trusts me. She is currently in seclusion and will be unable to keep her promise. I made the decision to visit you as I was afraid Ming Lu might not be able to explain the situation properly.”

“According to what you say, Ming Lu is supposed to thank you?” Pei Rumo raised his brows and questioned. His tone was calm and no one knew what he was thinking.

“This servant is older than Ming Lu and if my explanation can save him from a scolding, saying a simple ‘thank you’ should be worth it. My Mistress is unable to attend as she is currently at a crucial point in her cultivation. She mentioned about her agreement with Your First Highness and said that she would send you an invitation when she exits seclusion.” Cai Ling repeated Bai Luochu’s instructions.
