Quick Transmigration: The Big Shot Has Gone Crazy Again - Chapter 15
Chapter 15: Collision, Young Master Xue
The little troublemaker had the first good sleep in thirteen years.
It wasn’t until the sky was about to brighten that he woke up to a pungent and unpleasant smell.
Looking at the smoke-blue gauze canopy above his head, Pei Ziqing’s expression became confused for a moment, then he woke up suddenly and sat up.
It wasn’t an illusion; the stench was real.
Moreover, the smell was coming from him!
He had slept in pigsties, eaten pig food, and smelled all sorts of odors. But the smell emanating from him at this moment was several times more pungent than anything he had smelled before.
When he opened his robes and took a look, he found a thick layer of sticky filth on his skin!
Pei Ziqing almost fainted from his own stench.
He had just cleaned himself yesterday, so how could this happen?
If he met the woman like this, he would surely be rejected, as he could tell that she had a serious obsession with cleanliness.
Even the beloved foolish beast had to be cleaned before lying in her arms.
Pei Ziqing panicked.
He hastily pushed open the window and checked the outside sky.
Fortunately, it was still early, and there was a way to clean up.
Afraid of stinking his clothes, Pei Ziqing didn’t even dare to put on the outer cotton coat and hurriedly left the room.
The roads inside the Lord’s mansion were clean, without snow accumulation, as the servants would not allow snow to accumulate in the mansion. However, Pei Ziqing remembered passing by a garden when entering the mansion.
Inadvertently glancing, he saw blooming plum blossoms in the garden and snow that hadn’t been cleared.
Pei Ziqing planned to clean the dirt off himself with the snow before the woman woke up.
He was afraid she would reject him.
Taking advantage of the lack of people on the road, Pei Ziqing ran with his head down.
As a result, when he turned a corner, he accidentally bumped into someone.
The other person staggered backward from the collision, and Pei Ziqing also took two steps back.
A person dressed in a crimson purple ceremonial robe, adorned with a jade crown, had a strikingly handsome face, exuding a somewhat unruly demeanor.
At this moment, he wore an annoyed expression and delivered a kick with a lifted leg, saying, “You blind dog.”
Pei Ziqing was kicked and thrown to the ground.
Seeing a dirty footprint on his snowy white robes, a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
“Young Master! The Lord hasn’t risen yet. Do you really want to kick the door?” A servant behind him caught up.
The person Pei Ziqing collided with was none other than the most favored young master in the Lord’s mansion, Xue Songyun.
Coincidentally, a few days ago, he offended the younger brother of this young master on the street.
Xue Songyun had been at home these past few days and witnessed the aftermath of that incident.
One of his mansion’s servants was blinded and sent back, dying in pain without receiving timely treatment.
Thinking of returning to seek the Lord’s judgment and to apprehend the murderer, he unexpectedly received news the next day that the Lord had brought the beggar who committed the murder back to the mansion.
The situation seemed like the person was going to be kept close as a personal attendant!
Upon learning this, Xue Songyun rushed back overnight, intending to confront the Lord.
Even if the woman was currently mingling with other men, he had the courage to barge in.
Xue Songyun’s gaze fell on Pei Ziqing’s raised face, and his expression suddenly changed.
He hadn’t paid attention before, as the cleaned-up Pei Ziqing had nothing to do with the beggar. But now, this face covered with growths immediately reminded him of the murderer described by his younger brother.
“Is it you?”
“I heard that the Lord brought you back to the mansion. I didn’t believe it at first, but it turned out to be true. You clashed with my brother, killed my mansion’s servant, and yet she brought you into the mansion, pampering you with good food and drink. Ha, is the Lord intentionally opposing me?”
As he spoke, his teeth were gritted.
The follower who caught up quietly reminded him, “Young Master, don’t forget what Old Master said before leaving. Don’t keep pestering the Lord. The Xue family still relies on the Lord. If not for accidentally angering the Lord—”
Xue Songyun impatiently interrupted him, “I have my own sense of propriety. This time, she’s deliberately disgusting me, trying to force me to compromise?”
Xue Songyun glanced disdainfully at Pei Ziqing and said, “Just a despicable pawn the Lord uses to force me to yield. Do you really think you’re something?”
Pei Ziqing sat blankly on the ground, his mind buzzing.
