Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 1260: Zhang San

Chapter 1260: Chapter 1260: Zhang San

"Why the rush, Zhang? Didn’t you say this is the antidote?" Long Rui raised the small bottle in his hand.

Zhang San immediately put on a mournful face. Truth be told, he wasn’t sure if it was real or fake, he just remembered hearing about it from the dwarf before.

Long Rui didn’t care much about the details; he waved his hand: "Take him back to the mansion and observe the effects of the medicine."

"Yes."

Prince’s Mansion.

After observing for a Shichen, and seeing no abnormality in Zhang San, Long Rui gave the antidote to Xuexue.

In less than Half a Cup of Tea’s time, Xuexue returned to normal. However, having not eaten all day, her body was somewhat weak.

Long Rui had the servants prepare a lot of delicious food, filling an entire table. After Xuexue ate to her heart’s content and freshened up at the War Prince’s Mansion, she took a carriage with the dwarf’s corpse back to the General’s Mansion.

Situ Yongjie was busy and frantic searching for her. The entire Capital was turned upside down yet his daughter’s trace was nowhere to be found. He was very worried. A girl being abducted in the middle of the night wouldn’t bode well for her reputation. He didn’t know what had happened to her, whether she suffered any misfortune.

Just as he was preparing to widen the search area, and taking his men out of the city to search the outskirts.

Suddenly, a quick clatter of hooves sounded behind him...

"Da da da...!"

Situ Yongjie looked back and saw it was the guard from the General’s Mansion.

He stopped in his tracks, waiting for him to arrive.

The guard rode like the wind to them and loudly reported: "General, General, the eldest miss has returned to the mansion."

"What?"

The sudden good news made Situ Yongjie doubt his own ears.

"The eldest miss has returned."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Who brought her back?"

"It was a group of Knights-errant from the Itinerant World, who happened to pass by and rescued the eldest miss. They even killed the person who abducted her."

"Is the eldest miss alright?"

"Everything’s just fine, General you should go back and take a look."

"Right, right." Situ Yongjie smiled broadly in happiness: "Look at me, getting carried away with joy."

General’s Mansion, Qingyuo Pavilion.

Not long after Xuexue returned to the courtyard, Situtu Qinger hurried over with a few maids in tow.

"Oh! Elder sister, you’ve finally returned?"

Xuexue glanced at her coldly, understanding full well that Situtu Qinger coming over at this time was definitely not for comforting her.

Sure enough, Situtu Qinger spoke with schadenfreude: "Elder sister, who exactly abducted you last night? Did anything happen?"

As she spoke, her eyes roved up and down Xuexue maliciously. Her implication was clear even to a fool.

The implication being that since Xuexue was abducted overnight, her chastity must have been compromised.

Xuexue placed the teacup in her hand heavily on the table, her voice icy: "Second sister, does an elder sister who just escaped death need such words from you?"

"Don’t be angry, elder sister. I’m only asking out of concern. If it were others, I wouldn’t bother to care!"

"Thank you for your concern, second sister. On your way, then." Xuexue unceremoniously issued an eviction order: "Zi Xia, show them out."

Raising her head, she happened to see a bracelet on Situtu Qinger’s wrist. Wasn’t that her bracelet? How did it end up on Situtu Qinger’s hand?

These days, do thieves have such gall? Stealing something and daring to wear it out in the open, how audacious.

Situtu Qinger curled her lips disdainfully: "Who would care for this dreary place?"

After speaking, she turned to leave.

Xuexue: "Wait a moment."
