She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 332 - 331: This Girl is Fierce and Full of Tricks

Chapter 332: Chapter 331: This Girl is Fierce and Full of Tricks

"My lord, this little girl was picked up on the road, and I brought her along too, hehe..."

In the splendid and luxurious room, the arresting officer Li smiled sycophantically, pulling along Wang Suying: "This is the maid servant for the little girl, I’ve arranged everything."

The City Lord first glanced at Wang Suying, who looked somewhat rustic but still had a decent appearance, then his gaze fell on the tiny figure on the bed.

Knowing what was expected, the arresting officer Li immediately stepped forward and brushed away the hair covering Yan Lingzhen’s little face, revealing a delicate and beautiful visage.

The palm-sized face, with red lips and white teeth, a delicate and upturned nose; every feature was just perfect, making one unable to help but look forward to seeing what kind of view it would be when she opened her eyes.

It just felt a bit like someone.

The City Lord narrowed his eyes and stood still.

Just then, Chen Di came in to report to him that Princess Anping had left early. As soon as he entered, he widened his eyes.

"She..."

"What’s the matter?" the City Lord frowned, quite dissatisfied with his eldest son’s alarm.

Chen Di quickly composed himself: "My son just thinks this girl, she resembles the Commandery Princess a bit."

After Chen Di mentioned it, it suddenly dawned on the City Lord.

No wonder he had felt a sense of familiarity just now.

Her facial features did indeed bear a resemblance to that Commandery Princess.

"Father, I have an audacious request." Chen Di looked at Yan Lingzhen on the couch, unable to contain the excitement in his heart.

If he could not have the Commandery Princess, having a look-alike substitute was not a bad alternative.

The City Lord glanced at him indifferently. A father and son are connected by the heart; the City Lord instantly knew what his son was thinking.

He sighed and, under the anxious gaze of Chen Di, looked at the arresting officer Li: "Have you checked this girl’s background? Is it clean?"

"Clean, clean!" The arresting officer Li nodded eagerly: "Definitely clean, or else how would I dare to present her to you."

The arresting officer Li suppressed the panic in his heart, his chubby face smeared with flattery: "Rest assured, my lord."

"Hmm." The City Lord nodded, looked at Chen Di: "You stay here, I have other matters to attend to, I’ll be leaving first."

Chen Di and the arresting officer Li hastened to respectfully see off their father.

Watching the hem of the City Lord’s robe disappear at the doorway, Chen Di could no longer restrain himself. He strode to the bedside, pinched the chin of the unconscious little figure, and carefully scrutinized her, repeatedly exclaiming, "The resemblance, it’s uncanny."

His own little sister, how could she not resemble her?

The arresting officer Li muttered to himself inside.

But he didn’t dare say it out loud.

"Young master, about what you promised me earlier, now is the time..." He smiled obsequiously, rubbing his hands together.

Chen Di’s eyes were filled with obsession, and he waved at the arresting officer Li: "Just go to the accounting room and take the silver, and don’t show up in Northern Border City again."

"Yes, yes!" The arresting officer Li hastened towards the door, but as he stepped over the threshold, he pulled back his foot.

"Is there something else?" Chen Di looked at him impatiently.

Seeing his urgent demeanor, the arresting officer Li couldn’t help but remind him: "This girl is fiery and full of tricks, the young master should be careful, this injury is how I got it."

Chen Di saw that the arresting officer Li’s hand was wrapped in a thick layer of bandages, still oozing blood, he narrowed his eyes but could not hide the excitement in his eyes.

"That’s just perfect, I like them fiery, it wouldn’t be fun otherwise."

The arresting officer Li: "..." The young master with the money and status really plays hard.

He had given all the warnings he intended, having handed over two hot potatoes, it was now time for him to take the money and run.

As for what would become of this little girl, it was none of his business anymore.

Even if the scandal broke out, by the time they would be biting each other like dogs among the powerful, he, Li San, would already be off to the Ends of the Earth, living a carefree life!

Unable to contain the excitement in his heart, the arresting officer Li took two steps in the place of three towards the direction of the accounting room, completely oblivious to the murderous intent in Chen Di’s eyes as he lowered his gaze towards his retreating figure.

This money... why is it so easy to obtain?

"And who might you be?" Chen Di finally noticed there was another maid standing in the room.

The fabric of the clothes she wore was expensive, but clearly not something a person of her stature should be wearing.

"This servant... this servant Wang Suying, specifically serves the young, young miss," Wang Suying spoke like a maid from a wealthy household, which she was unaccustomed to at first.

She saw Chen Di’s handsome face and felt a blush creep onto her cheeks as she lowered her head.

Chen Di sized her up; she was grubby all over, but her face was reasonably pretty.

She had an air of naive freshness about her.

He stepped forward, lifted Wang Suying’s chin with his finger, "Do you fancy young master there?"

Wang Suying was taken aback by the shock, how could the young master be so frivolously forward upon their first meeting?

"This servant, this servant..." Wang Suying was so scared that she began to stutter.

Chen Di immediately lost interest, "Alright, someone will bring some hot water later, you and your mistress clean yourselves up, I will return tomorrow."

With those words, Chen Di strode away.

He had an Oiran to keep him company tonight after all.

He had no interest in a wildflower like Wang Suying.

As for the girl on the bed, she was too young; he was not such a beast to touch her now - a couple more years and she would be ripe for the taking.

He thought of sending a couple more matrons from the Moonlight Building in the future to teach them rules, to serve him together with the young mistress someday – just thinking about it felt like living a heavenly life.

The more Chen Di thought about it, the happier he became, and he left with a hearty laugh.

Wang Suying stood rooted to the spot, full of regret for not seizing the opportunity just now.

If she had said yes, would the young master have taken a fancy to her?

The more she thought about it, the more she believed it was true; she should have abandoned her damned shyness and boldly said yes.

Next time, she must seize the chance to turn her fate around.

Wang Suying swore to herself in her heart.

Soon maids filed in one by one and busied themselves in the side room; Yan Lingzhen on the bed also slowly awoke.

She rubbed her throbbing temples, her whole head aching fiercely.

"You’ve finally woken up, hurry and get up, go wash yourself," Wang Suying said indifferently when she saw Yan Lingzhen sit up.

Yan Lingzhen simply swept a cold glance at her, without a word.

She surveyed the luxurious interior around her, clearly that of a wealthy family.

Where was this?

"What are you standing there for? Surely you’re not waiting for me to wait on you?!" Wang Suying, unable to contain her anger, stepped forward and sharply questioned Yan Lingzhen, "Really treating yourself like a young lady from a rich family."

"Noisy," Yan Lingzhen’s eardrums were throbbing from her voice, she frowned and spoke with impatience.

"You—" Wang Suying was beside herself with rage, and in a huff, grabbed a nearby cup to throw at Yan Lingzhen.

"Dare to throw, and watch your hands," Yan Lingzhen said calmly.

She was clearly in a child’s body, yet the light in her eyes and the aura she exuded were so intimidating.

Wang Suying was stunned in place.

The cup in her hand slipped and fell to the ground, shattering into several pieces.

Hearing the sound of breaking, she remembered she had just been intimidated by a child and couldn’t help feeling a bit embarrassed. Just as she was about to react, a maid called out from the side room.

"The bath water is ready, quickly help the young lady to clean up."
