Chapter 606: Encounter with the Miss
Just as Jing Chunxi raised his hand and was about to sprinkle the powder in his hand, Xiaoman and Qiyue also made preparations, with the daggers in their hands ready to be thrown out, ready to attack at any time.
However, at this critical moment, Jing Chunxi's ears suddenly caught a cry from the restaurant: "Miss!"
The word "Miss" was tinged with anxiety and concern. Although the voice was not loud, it was particularly clear in the tense atmosphere. A familiar memory flashed through Jing Chunxi's mind. Although she didn't have time to think about it, her intuition told her that there should be no danger ahead.
The drug in her hand didn't spill, and Jing Chunxi's body reacted instantly. She rushed towards Xiao Man, who was about to attack from the right, and at the same time, she quickly grabbed the arm of the person opposite with her right hand and pulled her to dodge to the right. Her movements were clean and neat.
At the same time, she blurted out three words: "One of us." Although her voice was brief, it was full of firmness and trust.
Almost at the same time, the person on the other side spoke at the same time as her: "Jing Chunxi!" It was indeed a delicate female voice, with a hint of surprise and eagerness in her voice.
Jing Chunxi was delighted when she heard the voice. She recognized it as the young lady she had met at the wonton noodle stall in Jiangmen County. They had last parted two years ago, and she hadn't expected to meet again here.
"boom!"
The two bodies collided with each other due to inertia, making a dull sound. Jing Chunxi felt a huge force coming from the side, and her body involuntarily leaned back. The young lady opposite her also lost her balance due to the sudden collision.
The two of them let out an "ouch" almost at the same time, with a hint of grievance and pain in their voices.
Qiyue and Xiaoman quickly put away their daggers and used their bodies to support the two girls, one on each side. Otherwise, they would have fallen to the ground together and suffered heavy losses. Xiaoman's face was slightly nervous. While supporting Jing Chunxi, he whispered, "Miss, are you okay?"
July supported the eldest lady while vigilantly observing the surrounding situation, fearing that another accident would happen.
"Miss, are you okay?" A maid rushed out, stunned. She had seen the collision clearly and knew that the young lady had been badly hurt. She quickly stepped forward and took her young lady from Qiyue's hands.
After being supported by the maid, the eldest lady frowned slightly, rubbed her shoulders, and looked at Jing Chunxi with a wronged expression.
"Something's wrong!" they both cried out in unison. Jing Chunxi caressed her painful forehead, tears streaming down her face. Her forehead was red and swollen, and the pain made her gasp. The young lady across from her also rubbed her shoulder, a trace of pain on her face, but soon a smile appeared.
Finally, the two girls, their eyes filled with tears of pain, burst out laughing. There was a hint of teasing and intimacy in their laughter, as if the pain just now had disappeared.
The eldest lady looked at Jing Chunxi, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and said: "I was right, Jing Chunxi, you have grown taller."
In the past two years, Jing Chunxi had indeed grown half a head taller. Her appearance must have changed quite a bit as she grew. The fact that the eldest daughter, having only met her twice, could recognize her at a glance clearly showed that she was impressed by her and perhaps even had some affection for her.
Knowing this, Jing Chunxi was very happy, and the smile on his face became even wider when he looked at the eldest lady.
The young lady across from him, about fourteen or fifteen, with a curvy figure, gently stroked Jing Chunxi's forehead with a gentle smile. Her face was delicate, with a touch of intelligence between her eyebrows and eyes, making her unforgettable at first sight. She smiled slightly and said, "You have a sharp tongue, but I like to listen to you, sister."
Jing Chunxi was hit on the shoulder by the eldest lady, but it didn't hurt at all. Instead, it made her feel a little warm.
"Why is the door blocked? There are so many people waiting, please get out of the way." The waiter in the lobby hadn't noticed what had just happened. When he saw that no one was coming in, he noticed that the door was blocked and shouted out. There was a hint of impatience in his voice, and he was obviously dissatisfied with the group of people blocking the door.
"Those who have reserved a table please come in quickly. Those who haven't reserved a table in advance please leave. The table is full." As soon as the waiter finished speaking, the eldest lady hurriedly pulled Jing Chunxi inside. Xiao Man and others followed closely and hurried in. They made way for the door, but stood by the young lady's side. Their movements were quick and coordinated.
At this time, Chuntao and Chuyi ran out in a hurry, "Miss, the private rooms are all booked. If you eat in the lobby, you will have to wait." Both of them had disappointment on their faces. They had been waiting at the counter for a long time, but the shopkeeper said there were really no seats left.
"Those who haven't booked a table, please get out! Can't you see we're full?" The restaurant is too big to take advantage of its customers, and the waiter's voice was not polite at all.
Jing Chunxi smiled awkwardly at the eldest lady and said helplessly, "I'm new here and didn't expect this business to be so prosperous. It seems I can't eat here anymore." There was a hint of regret in her voice. She wanted to say a few more words to the eldest lady, but if she stayed any longer, the waiter might have to kick her out again.
After saying this, Jing Chunxi felt it was better not to stay any longer, as she didn't want to bother the owner. She was just thinking about how to say goodbye to the young lady when she heard her call out, "Waiter, this is my guest. Please make room for him." There was a hint of authority in her voice, clearly someone used to being respected.
"Aren't you going to tell me? They're all booked! How can I help you find one?" The waiter's response was clearly a bit impatient. But as soon as he finished speaking, another of the eldest lady's maids came up and kicked him. "Speak properly, don't you see this is the county magistrate's eldest daughter?" The maid's voice was filled with anger, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction with the waiter, obviously fed up with his attitude.
"When did the young lady come? I was blind, please punish me." As soon as the maid finished speaking, the waiter turned around and saw that it was really the young lady. He knelt down and apologized profusely. There was a trace of fear on his face, and he obviously knew the young lady's identity.
"Okay, who are you doing this for? Get up quickly and make arrangements." Jing Chunxi raised his head and looked at the eldest lady. He didn't expect that she was the daughter of the county magistrate.
The last time they met her at the wonton noodle stall in Jiangmen County, she didn't have any airs of an official's wife. She didn't even bring a servant with her when she went out. She also gave her meat and eggs to eat. Later, she took her and several cousins to the store to buy cheap things, and introduced them to buy items for the memorial service.
If the maid had not directly revealed her identity, Jing Chunxi would have thought she was just an ordinary rich lady.
