Heroine Saves A Gentleman

Lately, Yu Xingzhi was in charge of security in the capital, so he was clearly busy.

He carefully told Juanzi, Zhou Xiaoxiaos personal maids, Xiao He, and the others how to take care of Zhou Xiaoxiao in the morning.

One day, Juanzi and others bathed in the sun with Zhou Xiaoxiao in the yard when they heard Yu Tong.

Zhou Xiaoxiaos maid, Xiao He, went to open the door to see Yu Tong peeking his head in.

Xiao He said, Brother Tong, you came to look for your sister Juanzi again?

Yu Tong touched his head and handed an exquisite box over, smiling and saying, Sister Xiao He is teasing me again. Marquis is at Xinghua Building drinking with his friends and he tried out a fruity roasted duck which was extremely delicious. He recalled this dish being Ladys favorite dish, so he especially ordered takeout and brought this back home. He wanted me to let Lady try this out.

A group of maids in the yard surrounded him and started to gossip.

Marquis devotes so much time to our Lady.

Lady has a nice life, even when shes sick. Even like this, she is still on top of Marquiss mind.

Yu Tong softly tugged on Juanzis sleeves and she followed him out.

Is there a matter, brother Tong?

There was an elderly lady who stood outside the residence, occasionally selling vegetables.

She pushed a wheelbarrow over, containing a wooden barrel on top full of vegetables.

Juanzi vaguely remembered her as Yu Tong familys relative, so she nodded.

Yu Tong carried a steamer basket down and said, This is Xinghua Buildings steamed dumpling. It has a lot of juice and a thin outer layer. I was thinking that sister might like it, so I especially brought it over even with the steamer basket. Its delicious when you eat it right now, so please take it in and have all the sisters try it out.

Because Juanzi was always by Zhou Xiaoxiaos side, she met Yu Tong frequently and was familiar with him.

In addition, Yu Tong was a lively man and was smooth and evasive with his words.

He didnt mind a plump Juanzi either, eagerly bringing delicious food from outside in order to please her.

Gradually, the two became interested with each other.

Juanzis face turned slightly red and she grabbed the steamer basket, walking in.

There was a group of sisters in the yard who were laughing and teasing her as she opened the steamer basket.

They stared at the sparkling and translucent warm and cute steamed buns.

After that, everyone began to divide the food.

Xiao He sucked in the juice inside the steamed bun and it was indeed delicious. The outer layer was thin and yummy, tempting her to eat another one.

They suddenly felt the world turning in circles around them and someone calling out, How come this chair seems to be turning around?

Sister, my head feels dizzy.

Xiao He said oh no but she couldnt help but faint, unable to control her mind.

Yu Tong and that elderly woman pushed the wheelbarrow and walked in, closing the door.

Juanzi had a more determined mindset and didnt faint. Instead, she laid on the ground and stared at Yu Tong.

That woman gestured at neck and said, That girl saw you. Should we?..

Yu Tong stared at Juanzi and said softly, Whatever. I wont be able to hide my status this time, so I have no choice but to leave with you. Theres no point in killing more people.

That woman nodded and the two lifted Zhou Xiaoxiaos expressionless body, letting her sit inside the wooden barrel and covering her with some leaves and vegetables. They closed the lid and silently disguised themselves, leaving the residence.

Yet, in the modern world, Zhou Xiaoxiao couldnt find any ways to return to the ancient world.

There was nothing she could do, so she went back to her studio with her head drooped down.
