15 Chapter Fourteen (2/2)

”Who ordered you to come here anyways?” She asked, half curious, and half wanting to murder that person.

Bai Wu immediately answered, ”The Crown Prince.”

Bai Wu didn't receive any orders from his master to conceal his identity, so now he could sell Li Juan Tian out without hesitation! Sorry, Master, the future Mistress might murder me otherwise. Good luck!

Yu You Lei's brows drew together tighter, as she mumbled, ”The Crown Prince? Li Juan Tian?”

She paced around the room. With her intelligence, she knew he'd probably sent the guards here to kill her at first. Whatever, at least they were following her orders now. That saved her the trouble of calling for a servant.

Speaking of which, You Ping, who'd been ordered to wait outside, had already almost fallen asleep, and therefore didn't notice the movement from the room.

Yu You Lei could always ask the Crown Prince for money. However, she didn't like owing people favours, so decided to try and earn money on her own instead.

She quickly threw the gold coins back onto the floor, gaze clearly telling the guards she wanted them to take back the money. They did so immediately, grabbing the coins as if they were their last hope for survival.

Yu You Lei didn't even want to owe the servants of Li Juan Tian anything. What if he used this to prevent her from bring him down in the future?

That father of hers couldn't be trusted with finances, and therefore handed most of those duties to his main wife, Li Min Hui.

It was clear that Li Min Hui wouldn't be allowing Yu You Lei to access even a single bronze coin anytime soon, especially after she'd hurt Yu You Jia.

Other than Li Min Hui's hold over the finances, there was still her second brother, Yu Yuan Fu. He seemed to be her only option for the time being!

Yu You Lei stopped pacing, and waited for the guards to finish picking up their coins.

After that, she sent a message to Ji Xiang, telling him to prepare a few spiritual fruits for her.

Since there were spiritual herbs, gems and beasts, there were also spiritual fruits and vegetables. They were basically normal fruits and vegetables which grew in a place with abundant spiritual qi, and as such absorbed the spiritual qi in the air.

Spiritual fruits and vegetables could help boost a persons spiritual qi and stamina for a short period of time, and could also help in the long run if eaten often. Yu You Lei had a lot of these in her forest, and therefore could eat them as snacks.

With her weak body, she'd need to rely on these fruits and some pills to be able to move around freely.

Yu You Lei quickly threw the healing pills she brought out earlier into her mouth like jellybeans, and then chewed as she quickly made sure she looked presentable.

Fixing her hair, and changing her expression to a more peaceful and pure one only took a minute.

Yu You Lei felt the effects of the healing pills take place, and upon seeing the guards were also ready, leaped out the window without hesitation.
