Chapter 187: Drunk?
"..."How could she not be the Wangfei, with all the marks on her neck, "Aren''t you Gao Lan Mei? Daughter of Minister Gao Qi?" one of the female guards asked helplessly.
Though they avoided the presence of their master as the man hated the female scent, the proof alone that she was staying in this courtyard was enough.
Gao Lan Mei nodded, "I am" muttered under her breath, but suddenly sat on the ground, hugging her knees, like a sulking child, "I am not your Wangfei" she said so sad, one of the female guards approached tofort her, but far from her arms reach.
"She is wearing a pretty dress..." Gao Lan Mei added.
"Wangfei, that is impossible, you are going to marry Prince Wei" they said, going around her, trying to coax her to agree. "She stole it! We saw it earlier So you are our mistress See, Kai Kai even knows that" gesturing to the hound that was wagging its tail, watching out to anyone who tried to attack.
She looked at the female shadow guards, skeptically. They also wore all ck, like Wei Jiayi, their face was covered by the ck cloth as well, "Really?" asked softly.
After getting firm nods, Gao Lan Mei''s eyes lit up, then she smiled, "Yes, I will marry him... Now. " then suddenly stood up, looking for something, "Where is he?" she asked no one in particr.
Then added, "Did you hide him?" pointing at Ming Ya, "Get him out now!" she even stumped her foot to emphasize her notion.
"..." Even the female shadow guards got confused with the way Gao Lan Mei was acting. She acted like a drunk who changes her mind every minute.
"Huh?! Gao Lan Mei?! You are clearly an impostor!" Ming Ya eximed, not believing what she was hearing. The bloody woman in front of her that even some of the mercenaries were wary of was iming to be Gao Lan Mei, the waste of the entire Shizi Empire.
After saying that, in the blink of an eye, Gao Lan Mei swiftly moved trying to grab Ming Ya but failed because one of the mercenaries deflected her attack.
"You are so noisy, I want Wei Jiayi! Get him out now!" she said, face and voice void of emotion.
As the situation was getting dire, the mercenaries, immediately moved to retreat by scattering. Despite this, Gao Lan Mei decided to chase the mercenary that was with Ming Ya.
Feeling regret, as if they could turn back time, they would have done what Li Shao have suggested in the first ce.
"Ah! Are we ying tag?" Gao Lan Mei said, "I can count until three, then I will catch you. " she shouted, pping her hands, enjoying the idea of ying.
"You! You are not going to join?" She said to Li Shao who did not go with the others.
Li Shao had other ns and being on her good side sounded much more appealing than running for his life. Answering, "I already gave up since earlier." he said truthfully.
Nodding her head, "Good. I likewise people." Then Gao Lan Mei started counting, "One Two Three!" After thest count, Gao Lan Mei moved swiftly, that even her female shadow guards were not able to keep up.
They had no idea what will happen next, they could only use themselves as a shield if someone attacked.
Gao Lan Mei moved quickly, using all her senses, "Found you!" she eximed suddenly after seeing one of the mercenaries with Ming Ya.
They were already outside of the courtyards, trying to use the spirit beasts in the forest to buy time to escape. Even if they couldn''t escape alive at least the rest were able to.
They had not expected that Gao Lan will be quick enough to catch up, grabbing one of the mercenary''s head and mming it to the ground.
Using her hands alone, she was able to smash the mercenary''s head like a pumpkin, warranting an immediate death.
