Xia Ruqing pondered for a moment, then dismissed the thought.
In the future, I'd better not seek out such unpleasantness. What friends are there to make when everyone is a rival in love?
As the three of them were talking, a Little Palace Maid suddenly rushed in to report that an incident had occurred at Zhaohua Pavilion.
"What? An incident at Zhaohua Pavilion? What happened?" Xia Ruqing's heart sank as she quickly asked.
The Little Palace Maid, gasping for breath, couldn't explain clearly. Xia Ruqing immediately broke into a run.
Zi Yue's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly followed.
"Mistress, please slow down!"
Before Zi Yue could finish, Xia Ruqing had vanished.
She chuckled to herself; all those health supplements she'd taken certainly hadn't been for nothing.
「Upon reaching Zhaohua Pavilion」
Xia Ruqing entered and was immediately stunned.
The rear part of the room she lived in had completely collapsed.
Xiao Xizi dropped to his knees in terror.
