Chapter 175: How the Facial Injury Happened
Chapter 175: How the Facial Injury Happened
The woman was already concerned about her appearance, let alone a young unmarried woman. If she had a scar on her face, it would make her future marriage prospects difficult.
Xiaoyun believed that even if the scar on Miss's face couldn't be completely removed, it would be better if there was a way to cover it up.
After contemplating for a moment, Shuyu nodded. "Alright, I'll go and see your young lady."
A smile appeared on Xiaoyun's face. "Really? Thank you, Boss Lu. Thank you."
"No need to thank me, but I need someone to assist me. Help me out."
Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded. "Okay."
"Wait for me here."
Shu Yu went outside and found her elder sister who was busy in the front of the shop. "Elder sister, I need to go to the Ding residence to help Miss Ding with her makeup. Come with me and assist me."
Da Ya pointed at herself. "Me? But I don't know how to do it. I don't understand anything."
Shu Yu smiled. "It's okay, just watch me while I do it."
"Alright, I'll help you carry things."
But Shu Yu didn't have much to bring. She took her makeup bag and also grabbed scar removal ointment.
Originally, she had planned to take San Ya to see Doctor Xu in the afternoon to discuss the buying and selling of scar removal ointment.
There was no time for that now. She had to go to the Ding residence first.
Shu Yu led Da Ya and Xiaoyun towards the exit. However, when they reached the entrance, she suddenly stopped and her gaze fell on the sky-blue garment worn by a model not far away.
This color, combined with this style...
Shu Yu decisively walked up and stripped the clothes off the model.
Ruan Shi stared at her. "Ah Yu, what are you doing?"
"I'm taking this with me to have a look. Mother, bring me the long box."
Shuyu had prepared several long boxes for this purpose, and they came in handy now.
She neatly folded the clothes in her hands and placed them in the box. After closing it, they set off.
The Ding residence was not close by, so Shu Yu had a mule cart ready, and the three of them traveled by it.
When they arrived at the gate of the Ding residence, Shuyu looked at the guards stationed on both sides with surprise. Not only that, there were also many commoners standing there, pointing and whispering. She faintly heard words like "broken engagement" and "pitiful."
She looked at Xiaoyun, who seemed slightly guilty and avoided eye contact with her.
She only said softly, "Let's go through the back entrance."
Shuyu didn't say anything. The mule cart proceeded towards the back entrance.
The back entrance was also guarded by a soldier. After the three of them got off the mule cart, Xiaoyun spoke a few words to the soldier before leading them inside.
It wasn't until they passed the hanging flower gate that Xiaoyun apologized to Shu Yu. "Boss Lu, I'm sorry. I didn't intentionally hide it from you. I was just afraid that if you knew there were soldiers guarding outside the Ding residence, you might get into trouble and wouldn't be willing to come."
In fact, when they passed by the front gate earlier, she was on edge, fearing that if Shu Yu became unhappy, she would immediately turn the mule cart around and leave.
Seeing that Shu Yu didn't say anything and instead followed her into the Ding residence, Xiaoyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shuyu took in the scenery of the Ding residence. It was no wonder they made their fortune in the financial industry. The exterior of the Ding residence appeared unremarkable, but once inside the courtyard, one could truly experience the discreet luxury.
In response to Xiaoyun's words, Shuyu just glanced at her and smiled. "I do indeed dislike people hiding things from me, so Xiaoyun, you can now tell me how Miss Ding got the injury on her face."

Is it her sister?
ReplyDeleteOf course the sister grew jealous and sent someone to make it look like an accident, and some poor maid was either killed or whipped.
