Chapter 108: Are You Treating Us As Fools?
“Come over.” Lou Qianyue raised her hand and gestured to a young female servant not far away.
The young female servant hurriedly fawned over to her. “Miss Qianyue, what can I do for you?”
Lou Qianyue was Lou Xingchen’s biological sister!
Everyone knew about Lou Xingchen, who had come from Qingyun City some time ago. She was extremely talented and beautiful. Moreover, the Prefectural Governor deeply favored her. He looked upon her as someone even more important than his biological son.
Therefore, everyone in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion scrambled to fawn on Lou Xingchen. However, it was a pity that Lou Xingchen always remained immersed in cultivation and was rarely seen.
As a result, they could only settle for the second-best, and fawn on her sister and parents instead.
Lou Qianyue whispered a few words into the servant’s ears, then she looked at Lou Qianxue. With a smile on her face, she asked the servant, “Have you remembered it?”
The young female servant nodded. “Yes, Miss Qianyue.”
After Leng Qianhan threw the cousins out, Lou Qianxue sensed a cold gaze staring at her, and it made her very uncomfortable.
She tilted her head and saw a familiar and pretty face. The girl on whom Qianxue’s eyes fell flashed a provocative smile at her.
Lou Qianyue...
Lou Qianxue looked away and waited for Leng Qianhan to return. When he did, she said, “Let’s go.”
As the three of them stepped forward, they were stopped by a shout.
“Miss Lou, please hold on.” A female servant strode over.
“What’s the matter?” Lou Xiaoxiao impatiently asked. “Is there a problem?”
“The Prefectural Governor’s banquet is at this side. Let me bring you all over.”
“Lead the way.”
With the young female servant in the lead, all of them walked toward the Prefectural Governor’s mansion.
The Prefectural Governor’s mansion was huge. Carved beams, pavilions, ponds, and winding corridors were everywhere. A person wouldn’t even be able to walk the whole mansion in one day, and people unfamiliar with the place would get easily lost.
After 15 minutes, they started seeing fewer and fewer people. Soon, under the faint arched moon, only four of them were left.
Lou Qianxue stopped walking.
The young female servant, who was at the front, turned around and asked, “Miss Lou, why aren’t you walking?”
“Why do you think?” Lou Qianxue glared at the servant. “Where are you bringing us to?”
Facing the icy cold aura exuding from Lou Qianxue, the young female went pale from fear. “O-of course, the banquet, Miss Lou.”
“Are you treating us as fools?” Lou Xiaoxiao also came to her senses. “Participants from the various cities of Liuyun Prefecture have been invited to the banquet today. It should be extraordinarily lively. We are at this corner of the place now where I can’t see even one person around. How can it be a place for the banquet?”
Lou Xiaoxiao went forward and roughly grabbed the servant’s neck. “Tell me, who asked you to do this? Where are you bringing us to?”
The young female servant became breathless due to being strangled. She rolled her eyes and hurriedly pleaded mercy. “I’ll say... I’ll say... ”
Lou Xiaoxiao threw her to the ground. “Tell me.”
“It was Miss Qianyue... She instructed me to delay it and let you all miss the banquet... She said that she wanted to play a prank on you all and have Miss Lou be disqualified from the competition... ”
“Lou Qianyue! Dreadful!” Lou Xiaoxiao was infuriated. “Where is the actual banquet?”
“Near the main door!”
Lou Xiaoxiao grabbed Lou Qianxue’s hand. “Qianxue, go! Don’t be late. If you’re disqualified from the competition, how will you fight Lou Xingchen?”
Lou Qianxue was calm as she asked that young female servant, “When is the banquet starting?”
