Chapter 10 We Must Get Her Back

"Miss, you're so good-looking. Why did you blacken your face with dirt?"

While Liu Shengsheng was soaking in the bathtub, the two maidservants kept talking.

Liu Shengsheng was flustered. King Jiu hated the original owner so much. If he recognized her, she would probably die here...

Outside the room.

A maid came out to take clothes, but she ran into Mu Hong who was coming in.

Then Mu Hong threw the white clothes in the hand of the maid to the ground.

"She's just a servant, why did you give her this kind of clothes? Servants should look like servants. There are no clothes for the maidservants of King Cang's Palace here, so just give her a set of clothes that you wear."

The maid lowered her head in fear. "Yes..."

Mu Hong deliberately raised her voice and stared at the door of the room.

"You should know that servants are always servants. They don't deserve to wear exquisite clothes. What's more, she is an ugly woman. What's the use of wearing beautiful clothes?"

She knew that Liu Shengsheng could hear her. She was deliberately provoking Liu Shengsheng.

Now that Nan Muze was not here, she couldn't wait for Liu Shengsheng to quarrel with her. Then she could teach this annoying girl a lesson justifiably.

Unfortunately, Liu Shengsheng completely ignored her.

Inside the room.

Liu Shengsheng put on the clothes of a maid again, but this time the clothes fit her well. Her long hair was wet and could only be draped over her shoulders, giving her a beautiful appearance like a lotus emerging from water.

The two maids beside her were still praising her, but Liu Shengsheng only wanted to apply something on her face.

She couldn't be recognized...

Suddenly, she saw that the window was not closed. Liu Shengsheng looked out of the window. There was no one outside the window on the first floor. Wasn't this the best opportunity?

So, she secretly took out the silver needles from the pharmacy. When the two maids lost consciousness, she hid the 100,000 taels of silver she won today in the pharmacy of buff. Then she went out of the window and ran away...

This time she was wearing the clothes of a maid. Occasionally, she encountered a few servants. She lowered her head and slowed down her pace, so no one noticed her.

As she ran, she got lost...

"Damn it, why is the manor so big?"

After wandering around for a while, Liu Shengsheng arrived at a wall. Looking at the high wall, she thought to herself, maybe she could get out by climbing over it...

While she was thinking, there was a rush of footsteps behind her.

"Why don't you go and find her quickly? She disappeared at this critical moment. What if she has been kidnapped?"

"She won't be kidnapped. She ran away on her own. King Cang has ordered us to find her!"

“…”

The King Jiu was titled King Cang. The group of people not far away were obviously talking about Nan Muze.

Without thinking too much, Liu Shengsheng gritted her teeth and climbed over the wall. However, she accidentally fell off the wall while doing so.

"Ouch..."

The pain she had imagined did not come. Instead, her lower body felt something soft as if she had hit something.

Liu Shengsheng was pushed aside before she could react.

"How dare you!"

Liu Shengsheng raised her head in confusion, only to see a half-masked young man in a green robe. He had very attractive lips, and just by looking at the lower half of his face, one could feel his handsomeness.

The moment Liu Shengsheng raised her head, the youth's eyes darkened.

"Which courtyard are you from? Do you know where you are..."

"Sorry, young master. I have urgent matters to attend to and must leave now. I will apologize to you when I have the chance in the future."

Liu Shengsheng didn't want to listen to his nonsense, and quickly got up from the ground.

Just about to run away, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Can I borrow your mask? I owe you a favor, so feel free to come to me if you have any medical problems in the future."

The young man was speechless.

Seeing that he didn't react, Liu Shengsheng tentatively reached out and took off the mask on his face.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as a yes. I'll thank you the next time we meet!"

The moment the mask was taken off, the young man immediately reached out to cover his left eye.

There was an ugly scar on the face next to his left eye. The scar was at least six or seven centimeters long, like a centipede coiling around his face!

The young man's eyes were full of murderous intent. "How dare you! Guards..."

Before he could shout, Liu Shengsheng quickly covered his mouth.

"Don't, don't shout! I thought you agreed. I mean no harm! If you don't agree, just say it. I won't take it..."

While speaking, Liu Shengsheng quickly took out a bottle of ointment from the pharmacy and then reached into her bosom, pretending to take it out from there.

"This scar removal cream is my own research. Even scars that have been around for many years can be removed. Apply it once in the morning and once in the evening. Your scar is not very serious, so I believe it will completely disappear in less than two months. Consider it as my reward for taking away your mask. Please don't scream, it could be fatal!"

The boy in front of her looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, and Liu Shengsheng didn't know if he was trustworthy or not. At the moment, she just wanted to leave as soon as possible and take the mask with her, fearing that Nan Muze might see her during her escape.

Seeing the young boy's eyes blink, Liu Shengsheng slowly let go of his hand.

"I have already apologized and shown sincerity. Don't call anymore! Besides, this scar removal cream of mine is unique and worth more than your mask..."

As she spoke, she put on the mask on her own face and then ran away without looking back...

Not long after Liu Shengsheng ran away, a follower slowly came in from outside.

"Second Young Master, the medicine you're looking for is in stock. The horse carriage is ready."

Mu Yanxi looked at the ointment in his hand meaningfully. After a long time, he asked, "Why is it so noisy outside?"

"It was King Cang who brought a maid to treat the Marquis. After accidentally curing our Marquis, the maid suddenly disappeared. Some said that she was kidnapped, and some said that she escaped. Anyway, King Cang is sending people to look for her everywhere..."

Maid?

She even cured his father?

Mu Yanxi narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that the situation was getting more and more interesting...

“…”

Because of the disappearance of a servant, Marquis made a scene, which made Mu Hong very unhappy.

"She's just a lowly servant. Her disappearance is so insignificant that I really don't know why you're making such a big fuss."

Compared with the displeasure of Mu Hong, Xiaojiang seemed to be a little anxious.

He lowered his head and walked towards Nan Muze, "Your Highness, that girl should have no ill intentions. After all, she did save the Marquis, but I don't know why she infiltrated the Prince's Residence and what her purpose is..."

"If you don't know, check it out!"

"Yes."

Xiaojiang left in a hurry.

Looking at the remaining Gold Elixer in his hand, Nan Muze had mixed feelings.

He didn't even seem to ask for the woman's name...

“…”

After climbing over several walls and falling a few times, Liu Shengsheng finally walked out of the mansion.

Every time she fell, she thought if only she had lightness skills, she wouldn't have been so embarrassed when trying to escape.

However, what would she do after she escaped?

How could she return to the Prince's Residence?

With her limited abilities, she was afraid that once she stepped into the walls of the Prince's Residence, she would be killed...

Liu Shengsheng walked on the street with a look of confusion and soon found a large crowd gathered ahead.

"It's disgusting that you steal at such an old age."

"Not only did she steal from others, but she also stole from Miss Liu. Who else should we hit if not her?"

"That's true. But she is so old, if we continue to hit her, she may die."

“It's all her own fault! Miss Liu is well-known for her kindness. Even she doesn't care about this matter, it can be seen how disgusting this old woman is...”

“…”

Liu Shengsheng didn't like to watch the fun. She planned to bypass the crowd and leave, but there were too many people watching. She was accidentally squeezed into the crowd.

In the middle of the crowd, an old lady in her seventies or eighties was lying pitifully on the ground, saying, "I didn't steal anything, ouch!"

"Do you think we're blind? The thing is right in your hand. How dare you say that you didn't steal it?"

A woman who looked like a maid kicked the old man!

The old woman's face was full of tears and he looked extremely aggrieved. "Miss's purse fell to the ground, so I picked it up for her. I was just about to return it to you..."

"Do you think anyone will believe you? How dare you steal at such an old age? I'll beat you to death!"

Seeing that she was about to kick again, Liu Shengsheng in the crowd couldn't help stepping forward to stop her.

"That's enough. First of all, she said that she didn't steal anything. Even if she did, you had beaten her and scolded her. Now she has returned the things to you. She has been humiliated in front of so many people. She has been punished. If you continue to beat her, she will die."
