Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 137: Impolite Fool

The more Xiao Guoer thought about it, the more heartbroken she became.

In the morning, she vowed to the woman that the Eighth Prince would definitely find a way...but this was the solution he thought of!

After the blockade, the villagers trapped inside will surely become even more desperate.

In fact, death itself is not scary. What is really scary is that you can only watch the footsteps of death approaching but can do nothing about it.

Just like those people of the Yin family in Shanglin Village who are waiting for death to come, although they are still breathing, their souls have long since disappeared, and they are no different from the walking dead.

No, perhaps it would be better for them to just die, because waiting to die would become an endless torture...

A little maid came with a food box to deliver food. She knocked on the door but no one opened it. She hesitated for a moment and was about to turn around and leave when she caught a glimpse of two figures under the pavilion out of the corner of her eye.

The little maidservant's heart moved, and she thought of the rumors she had heard today. She couldn't help but widen her eyes and carefully looked at the person sitting opposite Master Tang.

After looking at him for a while, she couldn't help but wonder: This young man named Xiao Guo'er doesn't look that good, why would Young Master Tang like him?

At this moment, Xiao Guoer was completely immersed in the unacceptable reality and had not noticed that someone was secretly looking at her. However, Tang Jingchen saw everything. He frowned slightly and asked the little maid with a somewhat unhappy tone, "What's the matter?"

The little maid bowed and replied, "I am here to serve you food."

"let it go."

"Yes."

Xiao Guoer has always been a greedy girl, and she loves to eat, but at this moment she has no appetite at all.

"Jingchen, go eat first. I'm not hungry."

"I'll accompany you. When you want to eat, we can eat together."

"You go first, I want to be alone for a while."

Tang Jingchen sighed faintly, "Don't think too much. There's nothing we can do about it. Everyone has their own destiny. You can't force it."

Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Tang Jingchen knew that she really wanted to be alone, so he got up and left.

Xiao Guoer felt as if her heart had fallen into an ice cellar.

She didn't want to recall what she saw in Shanglin Village, but she just couldn't control her thoughts.

Yuanyuan's innocent and cute face, those ignorant and curious eyes, and the babyish "Thank you, brother" were all deeply imprinted in her heart.

Will that cute little guy disappear forever soon?

Xiao Guoer frowned, and a wave of intense pain passed through her heart.

It was just a one-time meeting, why did she care so much about the life or death of that child?

Those people suffering from the plague had nothing to do with her, so why should she worry about their fate or care whether they died in despair?

There are too many helpless things in this world, and too many lives that cannot be saved. Just treat those who are suffering from the plague as unimportant people.

Why should I be sad? Why should I meddle in other people's affairs?

As a soul from another world, she only needs to watch from the sidelines...

Xiao Guoer rubbed his temples irritably. He wanted to convince himself strongly but it was no use!

She still feels uncomfortable!

Suddenly, she touched a bag of dim sum in her sleeve. She bought it specially when she passed by the dim sum shop on her way back today.

I originally thought that if I were to go to Shanglin Village tomorrow, I would bring it to Yuanyuan and the kids...

Xiao Guoer stood up suddenly and walked towards the Eighth Prince's residence at a brisk pace.

I'm going all out! The word "give up" doesn't exist in my dictionary!

Giving up before trying hard is not her style!

However, as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped dutifully by Zhao Yunrong's guard Shen Jing.

"Please tell this lord that I have something to ask of the Eighth Prince."

Xiao Guoer raised her signature smile on her face, but she found that the man didn't even look at her, he just turned his nose up at her!

It’s amazing how tall you are!

Impolite big fool!

Xiao Guoer cursed in her heart but still pretended to smile on her face.

Seeing that it was this market villain, Shen Jing only glanced at him, raised his head, and said in a cold voice, "The Eighth Prince is busy with affairs and has no time to meet with outsiders."

Xiao Guo'er was very angry at being called an "outsider". If it were normal times, she wouldn't care to see the Eighth Prince. He was very busy, and she was busy too!

If she didn't have something to do, she would never take the initiative to meet this insidious, cunning, ungrateful and dangerous person in her life!

"Sir, please be flexible. I really have something important to discuss with the Eighth Prince. It's about the plague."

Xiao Guoer had no choice but to maintain a fake smile. Who asked her to ask for help? This was not the time for her to be tough.

Shen Jing frowned as he looked at the stiff smile of this market villain, feeling contempt in his heart. He hated the flattering and hypocritical look of others the most!

But just as he was about to refuse, he heard a calm voice coming from the room.

"Shen Jing, let him in."

"Yes."

When Xiao Guoer heard the words coming from inside the house, she was delighted and the smile on her face became much more genuine.

She glanced at Shen Jing triumphantly, then swaggered towards the door.

When she passed by Shen Jing, she did not forget to smile at him again, and this time her smile was very real.

But Shen Jing’s brows furrowed even more. He really didn’t like this person!

Zhao Yunrong was reading a letter from the capital in the house when he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside and felt a little surprised.

He recognized it as Xiao Guo'er's voice.

He could see that this little Guo'er followed Tang Jingchen and had been avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally. Every time he talked to Tang Jingchen or inadvertently looked near him, he would always lower his head and avoid him.

After so many times, he began to wonder why people avoided him like the plague when he was obviously not a coward.

Since you're always avoiding him, why do you want to take the initiative to meet him?

With such doubts, he spoke for the first time and asked Shen Jing to release a small-minded man whom he had never taken seriously before.

He casually placed the letter in his hand on the table beside him and looked intently at the person who pushed the door open.

Humph, still with that head down look on his face!

He has never been like this in front of Tang Jingchen!

"I pay my respects to the Eighth Prince."

"Why are you looking for me?"

Although Xiao Guo'er didn't look up, she could still keenly sense the displeasure in the Eighth Prince's tone, and her heart sank.

Was she coming at a bad time? Would he be even less willing to consider her ideas if he was in a bad mood?

But she was already standing here, and there was no way she could go back.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I found something strange about the plague in Huaiyang, so I came to report it to Your Majesty."

"explain."
