Chapter 41 - The Empresss Garden
Chapter 41: 041: The Empress’s Garden
Even after being awakened by the knock on the door, the two of them refused to get out of bed. However, as soon as they heard the last four words, they immediately jolted up.
Because they had both moved at the same time, the moment Jing Lu jumped up, her head immediately crashed into Qin Yi’s chin.
A muffled ‘boom’ was heard, followed by Jing Lu letting out a scream while Qin Yi hissed in pain, tears pooling in their eyes.
Jing Lu stood on the bed and covered herself with a translucent, silk nightgown. She was turning around like a headless fly, exclaiming anxiously, “What do we do now?! What should I do?! Big sister is here! What should I do?!”
As Qin Yi recalled Jing Qian’s tone from last night, his face showed unprecedented panic. He quickly got dressed and exclaimed, “Quick! Put on your clothes and hide your belongings in the drawer below the wardrobe! Hurry up!”
“What about me? Where should I hide?”
“Just wait for me here in the bedroom. If anything goes wrong, go to the balcony outside this room, and since the balconies are connected, just climb over to the study.”
Jing Lu’s eyes widened. She had never expected Qin Yi to ask her to climb across the balcony just for Jing Qian!
However, this wasn’t the time for arguments. Jing Lu quickly put on her clothes, throwing everything she couldn’t pack into the wardrobe.
“Quick! Quick! Jing Qian is already talking to the lady at the gate.”
“Mother, why did you let her in?!”
Qin Yi finally got dressed and opened the door, allowing his mother into the room.
He couldn’t help but complain as he helped Jing Lu clean the messy room.
Mother Qin was anxious and frustrated as well. She joined them cleaning the room as she spoke angrily, “Should I have just let her stay outside then, if I couldn’t let her in? She is still considered a celebrity. What if paparazzi took pictures of her as she waited outside?”
When Qin Yi heard his mother’s words, he kept his mouth shut.
On the other hand, Jing Qian rang the doorbell several times before a servant came and opened the door.
As Jing Qian walked into the house, the servant quickly closed the door and stood right in front of her, blocking her way.
“Miss Jing, why did you come to see our Young Master so early in the morning? Is there anything urgent?”
Jing Qian looked at the servant who was standing in her way, not intending to let her into the house, and sneered. Then, she raised her finger and gently poked the servant’s collarbone.
The servant let out a painful exclamation and staggered back, almost falling while doing so.
Jing Qian strode past him with her infamous catwalk as if she was an empress walking back to her palace.
As she passed him, she replied, “Why I’m here for Qin Yi isn’t something that a servant should be concerned about.”
The villa that the Qin family lived in was a two-story bungalow. When compared to the Zhan family’s villa, even the guesthouse that Jiang Yuxi was living in was much bigger than this house.
Jing Qian walked past the garden at the front yard, which was filled with fountains and fake mountains even though it wasn’t nearly spacious enough to do so. Then, she pulled open the sliding door that led to the living room.
At this moment, Mother Qin was one step ahead of Qin Yi, already walking down the staircase with nervous footsteps. When she saw Jing Qian, Mother Qin couldn’t help but frown, immediately starting to mercilessly lecture Jing Qian.
