The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 18 A Visitor from the Prime Minister's Residence

Bai Qianxi didn't wait for him to finish his words and continued sarcastically, "If I really pushed her down, then how come the food box in my hand is not damaged at all, and even the lid is not tilted at all!
Or is it that a living person is not as sturdy as a food box with a lid?"

"I... I clearly felt that someone pushed me just now... My injury hasn't healed yet, I can't joke with my own body." Bai Qianyi looked at Bai Yulang's scrutinizing eyes and forced an explanation.

Bai Qianxi sneered, and scanned her with sharp eyes, saying word by word, "Sister, you only remember that you were injured. I'm afraid you forgot that you and I were injured on the same day. I can't just push you without caring about the wound!"

Of course, Bai Qianxi's wounds had healed long ago with her own special ointment and Ye Beiyi's blessing, but this did not affect her from using this incident to fight back.

As expected, after hearing this, several people cast their glances towards Bai Qianyi. Bai Yulang even frowned and looked at Bai Qianyi with a questioning look.

Bai Qianxi said this, but she didn't care about their thoughts. She glanced at Bai Yulang calmly and indifferently, then said to Bai Yan, "It should be fine here. I'll go back first."

After saying that, she turned around and walked out the door.

Bai Yulang looked at her straight back, thinking about her cold eyes when she left and what he had just said. He felt a mixture of emotions in his heart and wanted to follow her.

Seeing this, Bai Qianyi's eyes became panicked, her eyelids fluttered, and she pretended to faint in his arms, tripping him up.

……

Bai Qianxi quickly adjusted her mood after returning to her room, but the inexplicable words Bai Yan said today were still in her heart.

She took out the herbs from the bottom of the food box and started to study them, and only fell asleep late at night.

The next day, the sun rose, and the sunlight crept into the house through the window cracks, shining on the face of the sleeping woman. The thick and curled eyelashes cast two light and shadows, which were quiet and beautiful. Even the scar on the cheek did not look so hideous anymore.

It seemed that the early morning light disturbed the woman's sweet dream. Bai Qianxi's eyelids trembled slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes, followed by the report of the servant outside the door.

"Fifth Miss, someone from the Li family is coming, and the master wants you to go over quickly!"

When Bai Qianxi heard the voice, her sleepiness immediately disappeared.

I almost forgot that Li Miaomiao hasn’t been resolved yet!

"Who is coming from the Li family!" Bai Qianxi said.

"I heard it was Nanny Chen who serves Madam Li." What happened to Bai Qianxi in the past few days had already spread among the servants in the mansion, so the maid showed her a little more respect than usual and returned carefully.

"I'm not feeling well. I've asked someone to turn down the invitation. I won't see you!" Bai Qianxi said in a firm voice. The maid outside the door was still hesitant, but when she thought about how even the most favored Fourth Young Lady had suffered in the past few days, she didn't dare to disobey Bai Qianxi's order. She answered and left.

A moment later, just as Bai Qianxi finished washing up, she heard several hurried and messy footsteps in the yard, and then before she saw anyone, she heard a roar.

"Evil girl, hurry up and come out, follow this man to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

When Bai Qianxi opened the door, she saw Bai Yan with a furious look on his face. Beside him was a woman in her thirties or forties, with her lips tightly pursed. She was obviously unhappy as well. She should be the Nanny Chen who served Madam Li as they said.

"Father is like this so early in the morning. What's the reason?"

"You're still asking why? Someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion came to invite you to be their guest, but you turned the door and refused to see them. How disgraceful! Hurry up and pack your things!" Bai Yan said, and then he changed his expression again. He smiled and said to Nanny Chen beside him, "My little girl is immature, so please bear with me. She will come with you after she has packed her things."

Bai Qianxi was speechless when she saw Bai Yan's flattering performance. After all, he was a fourth-rank official, but he could be so humble to a servant.

"Let's just go. After all, I can wait, but my wife can't." Nanny Chen held her head high. Although she called herself a servant, she was so arrogant as if she was the master. "Your wife can't? Why? Is she ill and can't hold on?" Bai Qianxi said.

Nanny Chen seemed to have been hit in the vitals, and she immediately exploded, "How dare you! My wife is in very good health!"

"Master Bai, your daughter is really kind. Madam sincerely sent me to invite her, but not only did I run into a wall right away, but now she is cursing my wife. I will report the truth when I get back!"

"Don't be angry, Madam Chen. I'm just not good at speaking. I don't mean anything else." Bai Yan said, and then he looked at Bai Qianxi fiercely and shouted, "Hurry up and apologize to Madam Chen!"

"Since you like to apologize so much, just apologize yourself!" Bai Qianxi glanced at him with disdain, then looked at Nanny Chen beside her, "Also, go back and tell your wife that if she wants to see me, she should follow the rules and send an invitation three days in advance. If she is in a hurry, then let her come in person to invite me, that's fine too!"

Bai Qianxi's words made the two of them look even more excited. Bai Yan wanted to cover her mouth and spoke quickly.

"Asshole, what nonsense are you talking about? Who are you to have the audacity to ask the Prime Minister's wife... to personally invite you?" Bai Yan gritted his teeth while saying the last part, but his voice was extremely low, as if he had great concerns before uttering these words.

"Hmph, the Bai family is really well-educated!" Nanny Chen's hands were shaking with anger, but she still maintained her airs and shouted at Bai Yan in a cold and arrogant tone.

Bai Yan's heart trembled, fearing that she would go back and complain, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, even if we have to tie her up today, we will tie her up and take her to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Come, tie up the fifth girl and send her to the Prime Minister's residence!"

"If you don't want to suffer, I advise you not to be so obedient." Bai Qianxi clenched the poison in her hand, her eyes full of sharpness.

I thought the two would definitely fight each other, but unexpectedly, at this moment, a servant came running from a distance to deliver a message.

"Master, someone from the Zhao family is here."

"Zhao family?" Bai Yan was not able to react for a moment. "Which Zhao family?"

"It's the Zhao family that is related to our family!"

"You mean, the Chang'an Marquis' Mansion?" Bai Yan was visibly excited. "Come on, follow me to greet him."

"No need to trouble Lord Bai." A clear female voice came.

I saw a middle-aged woman striding away, followed by a young man.

Bai Qianxi's gaze fell on the man and her eyes widened in surprise.

It turned out to be him!

The grandson of the old man who was treated on the street yesterday.

Just as Bai Qianxi was stunned, the two men walked up to them.

"Please forgive me for not sending a visiting card in advance, Lord Bai!" The woman looked gentle and generous, but her every move was full of grandeur, even a bit heroic.

She bowed to express her apology, but her face remained calm. There was no friendly greeting, only a strong sense of alienation.
