She hadnât reacted yet when the man who had been cold and harsh to her before had already brushed past her, striding directly towards that person.
A complete change from keeping her at a distance to being dominantly focused.
"So fast?"
"Itâs just a bowl of noodles, how long do you think it takes?" Chi Enen glared at him playfully, speaking naturally.
Li Beijue didnât even spare Scarlett a glance, grabbed Chi Enenâs hand, and said, "Letâs go, come inside. Iâm hungry."
Chi Enen took a look at Scarlettâs face, which looked unpleasant, and silently followed Li Beijue in...
Click.
The room door opened.
Immediately after, it slammed shut with a bang.
The sound seemed to pound heavily on her heart, and in a moment embarrassment, anger, and jealousy all surged forth.
The Female Officer noticed her expression and called her nervously, "Your Highness, letâs go back."
"Go back?" Scarlett murmured, her pretty face turning grim, "Of course, weâre going back..."
No matter how much she couldnât hold it in, no matter how angry she was, she wouldnât vent it in this place.
They really underestimated her!
With a sullen face, Scarlett forced a sweet smile and walked ahead. The Female Officer closely followed her footsteps.
She walked swiftly; servants greeted her along the way, but she acted as if she hadnât heard them.
Finally, they returned to the guest room.
As soon as the Female Officer walked in, Scarlett seemed unable to hold back any longer. She turned around and knocked the tray from the Female Officerâs hands, and the beautiful porcelain bowl instantly shattered on the ground, tomato egg noodles soup splattering everywhere!
She backhanded a slap onto the Female Officerâs face, proud and frantic, "I told you to find out what Brother Beijue likes, and this is what you found for me?! Are you deliberately trying to embarrass me! Huh! Also, who is that woman!"
The Female Officer, baffled and unjustly receiving a slap, explained with great grievance, "Your Highness, I found out that Young Master Li likes to eat tomato egg noodles. I didnât know he likes it because of..." another woman.
She didnât finish her sentence, but Scarlett understood the unfinished meaning; her pretty little face darkened to the point of dripping water, without a trace of the sweetness and cuteness she showed to others outside, "You also donât know that womanâs identity?"
The Female Officer remained silent.
Of course, she knew Chi Enenâs identity; she had even subtly mentioned Chi Enenâs identity to Your Highness before, but Your Highness didnât listen and interrupted her.
Scarlett couldnât care less whose fault it was; she blamed it all on the Female Officer, furious beyond belief, "So, you knew that womanâs identity all along, and you watched me make a fool of myself! Who gave you the nerve!"
"Your Highness, Iâm sorry..." The Female Officer knew she was a person who wouldnât let go easily, so she quickly admitted fault, "I was negligent and didnât remind Your Highness."
Scarlettâs eyes seemed to be filled with poison, wanting to slap her again, but her hand already hurt from the previous slap, and such a lowly servant didnât deserve another hit. She pursed her red lips, stared into the Female Officerâs eyes, and asked, "Let this one slide. Now tell me, whatâs that womanâs background? Whatâs her relationship with Brother Beijue?"
The Female Officer breathed a sigh of relief, clutching her face, hastily saying, "Young Master Li previously announced a marriage on the Internet, and the bride was Miss Chi. But for some reason, the wedding was postponed."
