Chapter 139.1: Clues to the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance (2/2)
“Then may I come in?”
“Sure!” After Tang Doudou finished changing, she picked up the comb on the dressing table and casually pulled her hair into a ponytail.
Qing He pushed open the door and entered, carrying things for washing up. When she saw Tang Doudou doing her hair, she hastily walked over and said, “Lady, let me help you.”
Tang Doudou looked at her long hair, then looked at the exquisite hairdo Qing He had and immediately handed over the comb to Qing He happily. “Alright, then please help me comb a more relaxed hairstyle!”
“Understood.”
An hour later, Tang Doudou gazed at her reflection in the copper mirror. The mild green garment was complemented with a simple yet refined hairstyle, making her appearance as fresh and adorable as a hibiscus. It was not bad!
Tang Doudou was not stingy with her words at all as she ladled Qing He over and over again with praise. Qing He finally managed to urge her to head out.
When Tang Doudou got to Baili Yu’s place, she discovered that Su Yi was also here. When Su Yi saw her wearing a female outfit, he sized her up, then said disdainfully towards Baili Yu, “This is your good idea?”
Baili Yu ignored him. Walking straight to Tang Doudou, he also sized her up for a while before saying, “Let’s go.”
After he finished speaking, he got into the Chrysanthemum Glass Jade Palanquin. When he saw that Tang Doudou didn’t move, he beckoned her. “Doudou, come here.”
“You’re not allowed to go over there!”
Tang Doudou had barely taken a step before Su Yi stopped her.
What exactly did these two talk about last night? She felt like today’s atmosphere was strange ah!
Before she could think more about it, Su Yi pulled two horses over. As he walked, he said sourly, “Our girl is a daughter from a decent family, how could she casually stay in the same room with a man by herself? Giving and receiving between a man and a woman is unclear, Xueyi, you must remember that! No matter what, don’t fall into a certain person’s trap!”
Upon seeing this, Tang Doudou got the general idea. Last night Su Yi had probably landed in a disadvantageous position again during their talk.
And so her pitiful self had become a tool for Su Yi to strike back at Baili Yu.
But Su Yi was seriously too much. He was already so old yet he still acted like a little kid, childish to the point people were made speechless.
Luckily Baili Yu was not childish. He simply ignored Su Yi’s acrid words and asked Tang Doudou, “En, you’re still not getting on?”
“Oh, I’ll get on right now!” Tang Doudou didn’t want to accompany Su Yi in his childishness either. Moreover, who would choose to ride those damned jolty horses when there was such a comfortable palanquin to ride? It’s not like she was mentally ill.
Su Yi was so angry his nose flared when he saw Tang Doudou fail to live up to his expectations and run towards Baili Yu. He stood there and complained that Tang Doudou was a white-eyed wolf (traitorous), and that it was a waste to raise her, she couldn’t even resist a little bit of seduction…T/N2
Tang Doudou simply turned a deaf ear to Su Yi’s old man-like prattle. She closed the door with a ‘bang’, then sat down opposite Baili Yu. Yawning, she asked, “What did you talk to him about last night to make him so riled up?”
Baili Yu passed her a cup of hot, steaming tea and said unhurriedly, “Nothing much.”
“Nothing much?” Tang Doudou sipped the tea, then picked up one of the pastries on the table and started eating. “If it was nothing much, then why’s he acting like he’s eaten explosives?”
“He probably didn’t sleep well last night.”
Tang Doudou gazed at Baili Yu’s face that revealed no hints, then asked, “Where are we going?”
“Gu Residence.”
