Chapter 20 – I Only Liked You When I Was Blind (2)

Sheng Peiyin looked awkwardly towards the ninth prince and explained, “Jiao Jiao was just helping young master Qi who was not feeling well at that time.”

“What does it have to do with this prince? She’s just a cheap and shameless woman, and her being with any man does not matter to this prince.” The ninth prince coldly retorted.

When Shen Ziqiao heard this, her impression of this ninth prince decreased. Such a remark went too far, and also say it in front of so many people was the worst.

“Yes, it has nothing to do with the ninth prince, but this is the first time I have seen a man of seven feet with the same insight as a shrew.” Shen Ziqiao sneered, her voice neither high or low in pitch.

Not only did the ninth prince froze as soon as this remark came out, but Sheng Peiyin’s eyes also widened in surprise.

“If lifting a finger to help another turns out to be a cheap, shameless act, then I’m genuinely confused about what it means to have face. I hope that the ninth prince can give me some sound advice.”

She isn’t naturally a hot-headed and easily angered person, but it doesn’t mean that she would remain silent and let other people humiliate her.

So what if she’s the female lead? Should girls who are cannon fodder resort to their fate?

Sheng Peiyin’s heart thumped with a strange feeling. How could Shen Ziqiao, who would only blush and turn shy upon seeing the ninth prince, and act submissive to please him, dare to contradict the same man today?

The ninth prince also did not expect for Shen Ziqiao to answer him back. He glared at her viciously. “You are shameless.”

Shen Ziqiao scoffed, “In the eyes of the ninth prince, helping others is equivalent to being shameless. I learned a lot today; I only liked you when I was blind. You can rest assured that I will never appear in front of you again.”

The whole audience was silent, and even Shen Ziyang could not speak.

She originally wanted to change her lovesick appearance in front of the ninth prince slowly, but their encounter for today made Shen Ziqiao feel that she didn’t want to wait anymore. She couldn’t fathom how the original Shen Ziqiao could take a fancy to a jerk like the ninth prince.

“Jiao Jiao, what’s the matter with you?” Sheng Peiyin asked in a low voice.

Shen Ziqiao removed Sheng Peiyin’s hand and answered, “I’m fine, sister Sheng. I won’t spoil your fun any longer. I’ll go first.” With that, she walked out of the lobby without looking back.

Sheng Peiyin looked after Shen Ziqiao’s leaving back with slight bewilderment, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.

Meanwhile, the ninth prince’s face had turned blue and white.

Shen Ziyang had his mouth wide open, and it was not until Shen Ziqiao called him from the outside that he regained his mind and hurriedly went out.

After getting on the carriage, Shen Ziqiao breathed a sigh of relief.

“You, you actually dare collide with the ninth prince!” After being silent for a while, Shen Ziyang finally reacted from the shock and pointed to Shen Ziqiao, stammering on his words.

Shen Ziqiao looked at the scenery outside the window in a good mood. “So what?”

“So what?” Shen Ziyang raised his voice and said, “Are you crazy today?!”

“You all think I’m a lunatic.” Shen Ziqiao said with an unfaltering smile.

Shen Ziyang said resentfully, “I must tell my grandmother when I get back. You just wait.”

“Whatever you want.”

Anyway, that old harlot never liked her in the first place.

After they returned to the Shen residence, Shen Ziqiao did not bother to greet the old madam Shen. Instead, she went straight back to her room and asked someone to prepare a meal for her.

“Third miss, all the fires in the stoves have already been extinguished.”

Her close-fitting maid, Cui Ping, said. She was unhappy that Shen Ziqiao wanted to eat at a late time.

Shen Ziqiao smiled. “Then let people make a fire again. I want to eat steamed fish with rice.”

Cui Ping was reluctant to leave. Shen Ziqiao gave her a look and said, “Why, does a master have to go through the maid’s approval before she can eat?”

“This servant does not dare! I will order the kitchen to cook for you,” Cui Ping’s mouth curled in reply.
