When the master wants to see you, a mere servant has no reason to refuse.
Qu Fulan was pulled out of bed by Hai Xia.
"Blame me for insisting on passing by that courtyard and getting called to deliver a message. It's Miss Zheng from the Zheng Family, saying she wants to see you. I told her you're ill, but she insists on seeing you. She even said if you don't go, she'll come to see you herself. Isn't that just bullying? I came immediately to find you."
Today, Hai Xia was responsible for delivering messages all over the mansion, running here and there. As it happened, she took a shortcut and ran into those noble ladies.
"How do they know about me? Did someone mention my name?" Qu Fulan was perplexed.
"I don't know either. When I got there, I didn't recognize any of those noble ladies, and I didn't see anyone else. I was just muddledly passing along the message, completely unaware of what was happening."
