Shen Jingyi walked slowly because she was afraid that the girls would accidentally bump into her while running or jumping.

However, fate always seems to like playing jokes, and what you fear will come true.

Just as they had walked past the rockery, a woman suddenly came jogging around the corner.

Chuntao quickly took a step forward, blocking the woman's path and causing her to bump into her.

"Ouch..." Due to the force of the collision, the woman took a step back and sat down on the ground.

Chunliu stood there without moving a step.

"Who is it! So blind..." The woman sat on the ground, without even looking at him, and started cursing.

The maid following behind her was startled when she saw this and quickly stepped forward to check on her condition.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Her voice was filled with nervousness and worry.

At the same time, the woman's group of sisters also rushed over and helped her up.

They all asked at once: "Youyou, are you hurt?" "Are you hurt?" "Why are you so careless?"

Their voices intertwined, and their concern was evident.

But the woman ignored their concern.

After she stood up, she pushed the person in front of her away and yelled, "Get out of the way! I want to see who is so blind."

Chun Tao was unhappy after hearing this. She frowned, took two steps forward, stood in front of her, and said rudely, "Who are you? It was obviously you who didn't look at the road, and you didn't admit your fault after hitting someone. Instead, you cursed at her so confidently.

You really have no manners at all. Where are you from?"

Chunliu sneered disdainfully and took a step aside, revealing the pregnant Shen Jingyi.

Shen Jingyi really disliked the woman in front of her, so she said in a light tone: "You bumped into me by yourself. If you bumped into me, have you thought about the consequences?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, her eyes wandering between Chunliu and Shen Jingyi. She didn't expect there was a pregnant woman here.

And judging by the size of her belly, she must have been pregnant for several months.

Generally speaking, pregnant women like this rarely go out, let alone visit other people's homes.

If these people appeared here, they could only be people from the palace. And there is only one pregnant woman in the palace...

When she realized Shen Jingyi's identity, her face suddenly changed and her anger turned into shock.

"It's you!"

The woman couldn't help but scream out, with a look of disbelief and dissatisfaction on her face.

She obviously didn't expect to meet Shen Jingyi here, which made her momentary anger complicated.

Shen Jingyi raised her head slightly, with a hint of calmness and indifference in her eyes: "If the people around me hadn't blocked it, you would have bumped into me."

Her voice was soft, yet indifferent.

The woman lowered her head to hide the hatred in her eyes. It was because of this woman that her aunt was sent to a nunnery and ruined her life.

If...if she had hit him harder, then...

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that her previous thought was too dangerous. If she had really bumped into something just now, her father would definitely beat her to death.

She felt a chill on her back, and couldn't help feeling a mixture of fear and relief.

At this moment, a cautious voice came from the side: "Excuse me, are you Concubine Shen?"

Shen Jingyi nodded and admitted it.

Several girls immediately brought their maids to pay their respects, saying in unison, "Greetings, Concubine."

Shen Jingyi raised her hand to signal them to stand up, "Get up!"

Everyone stood up obediently, except the woman who bumped into Shen Jingyi, who was still standing there, as if she had not yet recovered from the shock.

After a while, she bowed as if she had just woken up from a dream, and sincerely apologized to Shen Jingyi: "Greetings, Concubine, I was reckless just now and shouldn't have spoken rudely to you, please forgive me."

Shen Jingyi raised her eyebrows, looked at the woman in front of her, and asked curiously: "Get up! Who are you from?"

The woman raised her head, glanced at Shen Jingyi secretly, and then replied: "I am the granddaughter of the Minister of Justice, my name is Xue Hui."

Shen Jingyi was a little surprised to hear the name of the Minister of Justice. She carefully looked at the woman in front of her and raised her eyebrows and asked, "Xue Xue, is she your aunt?"

Xue Hui bit her lip and replied softly, "Yes."

Hearing this answer, Shen Jingyi felt a complex emotion in her heart.

She remembered how Xue Xue poisoned her and was then sent to a nunnery by her family.

She sighed, then said to Xue Hui, "So she is the granddaughter of Master Xue. I will not pursue the matter today.

But you must be careful in the future and don't be so reckless again." After saying that, she led her people away, leaving a group of stunned ladies behind.
