Noble Lady

"Miss Xue." A look of surprise flashed across Situ Zhen's face.

But as she finished speaking, she vaguely saw a woman's figure quickly disappear.

Xue Chenyu blinked, somewhat unable to believe her eyes.

Prince Cheng actually has a secret meeting with a woman?

This thought flashed through her mind, and she was frightened by herself.

This secret meeting is not a serious matter, and the other party is the Prince of Cheng, my father's favorite disciple.

He didn't look like the type to do something like that either.

While she was lost in thought, Situ Zhen had already stood up and walked to the door with his attendant Fang Rui to talk to her.

"Miss Xue, I didn't expect to meet you here by chance."

"The prince is also here for tea with his friends?"

She felt it was abrupt to ask this question.

Not to mention that the other party's status is higher than hers, the other party is not her familiar friend at all, and is of the opposite sex.

And it was only because Prince Cheng was my father's student that he often visited the mansion.

Asking this was like trying to spy on the other person's whereabouts. It was fine if someone didn't care, but if someone did, it would be hard to get out of this situation.

"I guess so. How come Miss Xue has time to go out today?" Situ Zhen first glanced at someone in the private room and smiled meaningfully.

"My daughter is often free, unlike you, the prince, who is always busy with official duties and can only take a break occasionally." Xue Chenyu said half-jokingly.

There was a hint of sarcasm in the words, and Situ Zhen also heard it.

He just smiled, and the two exchanged a few words before saying goodbye.

After all, the two of them just met by chance, Situ Zhen also had guests, and there were no other female relatives accompanying him, so it was not appropriate to invite her in for tea.

Xue Chenyu didn't even enter the private room.

Take full precautions for both men and women.

The waiter was indeed a smart man. Seeing that they were either rich or noble in their attire, he did not dare to look or listen too much. After they said goodbye, he took Xue Chenyu to a private room further inside as planned.

After entering the private room and ordering tea and snacks, Yuzhu came over to help take off the veil.

Xue Chenyu suddenly remembered that she had been wearing a veil just now. How did Situ Zhen recognize her?

Oh, he must have seen the two maids beside her first.

"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I actually met Prince Cheng." Qiu Hua patted his chest, "Normally, that prince is not so easy to talk to. Could there be a mistress hidden in that room?"

"Shut up." Xue Chenyu shouted in a low voice, "Don't make up stories about the royal family behind their backs."

Not to mention that I just saw a shadow and there is no evidence. What if it was a misunderstanding?

Even if they really saw him meeting with a woman in private, that was Prince Cheng's palace's business. If they were caught gossiping about him, it would be a big problem.

Qiuhua was the type to be honest once spoken to. After a moment of silence, she couldn't help but ask, "But there is indeed a girl in the prince's room."

Xue Chenyu was speechless. How could she not have known Qiuhua was also a gossiper? She wasn't going to marry him, so why would she care whether he had a private meeting with her or not?

"Just know what happened today when you met the prince. Don't tell anyone about it when you get home, not even to my parents."

Yuzhu and Qiuhua looked at each other and nodded eagerly.

Xue Chenyu breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that the two girls would turn around and say something nonsense, although they were not the kind of people who had no sense of propriety.

She regretted it. If she had known that she would meet Prince Cheng and encounter such an embarrassing situation, she would not have come and would have let Qiuhua queue up to buy some snacks.

……

At this time, Situ Zhenya was in the room.

He didn't know that Xue Chenyu was regretting her decision to come over for tea suddenly.

Instead, he looked up and saw a petite girl peeking out from behind the screen. "How was it? Didn't the girl find out?"

"Come out, your girl hasn't noticed." Situ Zhen's tone was helpless but also a little doting.

I used to think this girl was just troublesome and had wild ideas, but now it seems that she is becoming more and more out of line.

Yumei sat down with her legs crossed and placed her veil on the table.

"Why does Junior Master look a little unhappy?"

"What do you think?"

With the speed at which she dodged just now, someone who didn't know the situation would have thought he was guilty.

Yumei chuckled dryly. "I'm doing this for your own good, isn't it? If the girl saw me sitting in the same room with you, what do you think she would think of you?"

Yes, she didn’t see me sitting with you, but she saw a woman hiding.

Situ Zhen smiled wryly, "What do you think your daughter thinks of me?"

Yumei continued to smile foolishly, "You promised to accompany me here to eat the new dim sum, you can't regret it."

Situ Zhen snorted, "I am a grown-up and I wouldn't argue with a kid like you, but..."

But these two words controlled Yumei who was just about to wash her hands and drink tea.

The little girl frowned deeply, feeling that this junior master was becoming more and more stingy.

In that situation just now, it was not right for her to hide, nor was it right for her not to hide.

It wouldn't be good to let the girl see her sitting with the junior master. How would she explain it later?

"Fang Rui, where are the people who were previously sent to the He Mansion? Miss Xuemei is still young and not suitable to be a maid. Hurry and find someone suitable to take her back to the mansion."

Fang Rui trembled: "Yes, Prince."

Yumei jumped three feet high when she heard this, "Little Master, are you kidding me? I've been with the girl for so long, who else could be more suitable than me? If you don't help the girl get a divorce, I will definitely not go back!"

"Weng, Xue, Mei."

Situ Zhen spoke each word clearly, and Xiao Yumei... or should I say Weng Xuemei, immediately became timid.

It’s killing me. This young master-master isn’t much older than her, so why does he have the same temper as an old man and gets angry at any time?

The key point is why she is always like this. Her legs go weak and her hands tremble when she hears him call her full name. Ahhhh, what a promising future, Weng Xuemei!

"Just these two days, find an excuse to bring the person back." Situ Zhen said and got up to leave.

Seeing that the person was about to leave the private room, Weng Xuemei gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, and made up her mind.

"What do you want? At worst, I'll tell you whatever the girl says or does in the future."

Situ Zhen paused and continued walking forward.

"I'll tell you another secret, I guarantee you'll be surprised!" Weng Xuemei continued to add to the pressure.

Situ Zhen was unmoved.

He opened the door with his hand, Weng Xuemei screamed, cursed him as a bad guy in her heart, then jumped up and rushed over to grab him.

"This secret is about a girl. Junior Master will definitely never guess it. That He..."

When the three words "He" were mentioned, Situ Zhen's face turned cold and he finally turned around.

"explain."

Weng Xuemei looked at Fang Rui, who cleverly turned his back and covered his ears.

Even so, Weng Xuemei still asked Situ Zhen to squat down, and then whispered in his ear -
