The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady

Chapter 477: Malice

“This gathering is actually a flower appreciation banquet organized by Princess Ning Xin. The purpose is to meet the daughters of various officials in the capital. This banquet is also called the Flower Banquet. As the name implies, it’s a banquet to get married to the daughters of these officials in the capital.” Meng Yan said, “Logically speaking, you’re already married and shouldn’t be invited, but someone came to me and asked me to invite you out of kindness. Regardless of whether you come or not, I’m asking in order to repay this favor!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately became baffled.

They invited her to such a banquet? Were those nobles going to betroth her to someone?

The possibility was small and could be ruled out.

Could it be that the other party was after her husband, Luo Cheng?

After all, in this time and space, a woman could accept concubines for her husband.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran immediately felt disgusted.

These people really thought she was a pushover!

Since they couldn’t get through to Luo Cheng, they began to force her.

“Hmph, that person has an ulterior motive! Why? Is it because my identity as a countryside woman makes those people look down on me?!” Li Xiaoran’s expression was icy, and she exuded an intimidating aura that made people tense up.

At this moment, Meng Yan realized that the woman in front of her, who had been smiling brightly, was no longer as cute and amiable as she looked.

On the contrary, she was a capable person that couldn’t be underestimated.

“You’re indeed very smart. You saw through their intentions at a glance! That’s why I said that you don’t have to attend this gathering on my account. You can refuse!” Meng Yan suggested.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she wasn’t angry, but laughed instead.

“Refuse? Why should I refuse? I have never been a coward before! If I can refuse this time, there will be a second time and a third time. Instead of being harassed and pressured by others, why don’t you let me go to this gathering to show off my might? I’ll let certain people know what the consequences of offending me are!”

When Meng Yan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she said worriedly, “But their dirty methods are impossible to guard against. I’m afraid you’ll suffer if you go!”

Meng Yan really liked Li Xiaoran as a friend. Her thoughts and perceptions were so different that it impressed her.

It wasn’t easy for her to get such a good friend, so she was unwilling to let her experience those terrible schemes and embarrassment.

“Don’t worry! I’m not that easy to scheme against! When will this gathering be held and where will it be held? Tell me everything! I’ll participate on time!” Li Xiaoran said calmly.

Seeing that Li Xiaoran had made up her mind to go, Meng Yan thought for a moment and said, “How about this?! I’ll bring you along! No matter what happens, at least I can help you!”

Speaking of this, Meng Yan remembered something.

“By the way, bring a few skilled maids with you! Bodyguards can’t enter that gathering, so you also have to bring some self-defense medicine as well. You have to prepare a few more sets of outfits too!”

After Li Xiaoran remembered these things, she parted ways with Meng Yan and went home.

At this moment, Luo Cheng had also returned from the palace. When he saw Li Xiaoran’s solemn expression after getting out of the carriage, he knew that something must have happened.

“What’s wrong? Why are you frowning? Didn’t you go out to play with Meng

Yan?”

When Li Xiaoran saw that Luo Cheng had returned and was looking at her with concern, she shook her head.

“It’s not a big deal, but husband, you have to prepare some things for me!”

With that, Li Xiaoran held Luo Cheng’s hand and the two of them entered the house.

When Li Xiaoran told Luo Cheng about the flower banquet, Luo Cheng’s expression turned ugly.

“I really didn’t expect that after I dealt with the men, the women started bullying you! It seems that the cheating scandal hasn’t taught everyone a lesson. The women have to be taught a lesson as well!”

“Husband, leave this matter to me! It’s better for you to handle the men’s matters. Let me handle the women’s matters!” Li Xiaoran said.

“Can you really do it? Don’t underestimate these women. When it comes to ruthlessness, even men pale in comparison!” Luo Cheng said worriedly.

“Husband, have you forgotten what my special ability is? It’s fine as long as you arrange for experts to protect me and give me some self-defense medicine! This is my battlefield, so I can’t retreat. I have to go. Moreover, I have to show them that I’m not to be trifled with!” Li Xiaoran said.

When Luo Cheng thought of Li Xiaoran’s special ability, he was slightly relieved.

“Now, we’ll get Wu Qinghe to divine your fortune. You can only go if there’s no danger!”

Li Xiaoran knew that Luo Cheng was worried about her safety, so she didn’t refuse.

The couple found Wu Qinghe and asked him to read Li Xiaoran’s fortune.

Wu Qinghe read Li Xiaoran’s fortune, which was that she would actually have a daunting experience without mishap.

Therefore, in the end, Li Xiaoran decided to attend the flower banquet in two days.

This drug for self-defense and the drug for teaching others a lesson were both useful, but it wasn’t easy to find a skilled female bodyguard!

At this moment, Luo Cheng really didn’t know where to find such a person.

Just as Luo Cheng was fretting, an unexpected person appeared in front of Li Xiaoran.

“Xiaoran, Xiaoran, here, here!” When Li Xiaoran was strolling on the street, she suddenly heard someone calling her, so she looked over.

On the other side of the street, Shu Ruyue, whom she had not seen for a few days, had actually appeared.

“Ruyue, why are you here?” Li Xiaoran ran over happily and grabbed Shu Ruyue’s hand as she asked, “Didn’t you say you wanted to go home and recuperate? Why did you run out not long after? Don’t you know how to cherish your health?!”

Shu Ruyue was amused by Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Don’t worry! I’m in good health now and I have a good appetite. I got lucky. A martial artist from my sect happened to visit me and made me a saint-grade medicine to treat my injuries. After I took a few pills and recuperated for so many days, I completely recovered! As you know, I like being on the go, so I came to the capital with my martial uncle and junior sister!”

“Where are your martial uncle and junior sister?” Li Xiaoran looked around and asked curiously.

“My martial uncle and junior sister have something else to do.. I just came out to see if I could run into you!” Shu Ruyue explained, “It turns out that we’re really fated!”
