VOLUME 6 CHAPTER 33: DON’T TELL ME THIS IS A MEETING WITH SUN QUAN (4)

Liu Bei POV

My gaze s.h.i.+fted to where the voice came from and under the light of the candle, I could see a figure standing in the doorway.

The one standing there was a little girl in her early teens. Her features were exquisite, a cute little nose and a similarly small mouth that was closed tight, with a pair of black, charming eyes. Her hair was very long but her fringe was tied back, which made look even more youthful. Her long robes were so long they seemed like they would fit a 2 meter tall big man. When she walked most of it dragged along the floor.

That said, I had a weird feeling when I saw her, as I could feel the aura of a mature adult which was at complete odds with the child I saw before me.

Whose little girl is this? I thought as I approached the child.

“Little girl, are you lost?”

“Oi oi oi…”

“I, imperial Uncle?!”

Un? Why are the other 2 people frozen to the spot?

“I ask the Imperial Uncle not to touch me unnecessarily.” Just then, the child in front of me swatted my hand aside as she said so, “And don’t face me with that hypocritical face of yours.”

Wh–

Th, this kid, isn’t she too audacious!? And those words aren’t befitting of her age at all. Speaking of which, what is this sense of déjà vu I’m getting? And why does this voice feel so familiar?

“And you 2!” The little child pointed to the 2 behind me, and they trembled as they hurriedly stood up right, “I told you 2 to invite Imperial Uncle Liu over yet what do I see the 2 of you doing here?”

“I’m terribly sorry, Lord Zhang Zhao.”

“Sorry, Lord Zhang Zhao.”

The 2 of them bowed deeply as they apologised after they received scoldings from the severe voice.

What? Lord Zhang Zhao? I blinked twice and looked at the little child who was about as tall as my waist as my heart began to race.

“*Ke* *Ke*…” Zhang Zhao gave a couple of fake coughs as she placed her arms behind her back, “As I was asking, what were you going to say to me?”

Watch your words. Look at who you’re speaking with.

Zhang Zhao widened her eyes slightly as she looked at me. She didn’t continue after stating her question but her expression was warning enough.

This pressure is borne from one in a position of unquestionable authority. And I am now experiencing firsthand the reason why the 2 warrior generals behind me are so deferent to her.

Now then, next is…
