Chapter 564: Watching the Pheasant Walk Into Her Snare

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The young master from the Ministry of Personnel’s family had been chubby since childhood, indulging in food and laziness, never moving a muscle.

At the age of 15, he had already grown into a 200-pound obese boy, completely lacking the melancholic charm one would expect from a young man.

Not only that, his facial features were quite unattractive.

Zhang Wan’er considered herself a beauty, so how could she accept such a marriage arrangement?

Therefore, every time her fiance was mentioned, Zhang Wan’er would throw a fit!

Leaving the Western Courtyard, Mo’er vented, “Eldest Young Miss, you really… either stay silent, or every time you speak, it infuriates Young Miss’s cousin to the point of steam coming out of her head!”

Liu Shimei smiled.

Honestly, if she had such a fiance, she’d probably be scared to death!

If she had crossed over and ended up having relations with a 200-pound ugly boy, she wouldn’t be able to stand it either!

Oh my goodness, she quickly thought of her family’s silly husky, used its silly dog expression to cleanse her eyes and calm her nerves!

Mo’er thought for a moment, then furrowed her brows and said, “But is the young master… openly flirting with you? Eldest Young Miss, why aren’t you scolding him to death?”

To this, Liu Shimei wasn’t angry at all; instead, a mysterious curve formed at the corner of her lips.

The Zhang family had just returned to the Capital. Their previous residence was a bit too small, so they were looking for a new one. In order to match the upcoming fourth-rank official’s status, the new residence naturally needed some decoration and renovation.

Right now, the Zhang family of four temporarily resided in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence.

As for Zhang Qian’s concubines and such, they haven’t been brought back to the Imperial Capital yet. The plan is to settle down here, handle the current relationships, and then bring them back together.

Back in the Leihua Courtyard, Mo’er raised a question, “They just moved in like this, and it seems Lord Grand Chancellor doesn’t have any objections?”

Liu Shimei smiled faintly and replied, “It’s not hard to understand. My father has a way of inserting himself everywhere. Zhang Qian is still relatively young, and now that he’s been promoted to the fourth rank, he still has room for advancement in the future. When the wife’s family rises, it’s only beneficial and not harmful to the Grand Chancellor. Why would he object?”

“Eldest Young Miss, you see through everything!” Mo’er pouted, “Thank goodness Eldest Young Miss spent some time in the palace recently. Otherwise, if you encountered that l.u.s.tful young master, who knows what he might have tried to do to you? Just now, I saw him leering at Eldest Miss, I nearly felt sick!”

Liu Shimei glanced at her and said, “Just wait, he will come looking for me later!”

With someone like Zhang Qingxi, she could endure today; then she would make him kneel and beg for mercy!

Mo’er blinked, “Huh?”

Liu Shimei’s estimate was correct.

Originally, she planned to come back to discuss the matter of Wen Gui with Liu Fuyun, then bring Little Mute back to the palace, so that it can keep her injured silly puppy company. However, encountering someone like Zhang Qingxi changed her mind.

Ah, a free show delivered to her door, she couldn’t afford to miss it!

A face delivered to her door, she couldn’t afford not to tear it apart!

Moreover, she could also do something extra!

As expected—

After having lunch, Liu Shimei was personally giving Little Mute a bath in the yard. Just as she finished washing and was drying it with a cloth, Zhang Qingxi arrived.

“Cousin Shimei!”

The self-proclaimed charming and elegant young master of the Zhang family stepped into the courtyard, followed by his attendants, carrying a pot of wine and two small dishes.

Liu Shimei sat under the flower rack, painstakingly drying the water off Little Mute’s fur bit by bit. She looked up, smiled suddenly, and said, “Cousin Zhang, haven’t you had your lunch yet?”

Then she realized, “No, that can’t be. How could Madam Zhang mistreat her esteemed guest?”

In her eyes, as she watched Zhang Qingxi approach her step by step, it was as if she were watching a wild pheasant walking into her snare!
