Chapter 691 “Impersonate (3)”

“Miss Huan Yin,” Ho Cui Cui coughs awkwardly to clear her throat after seeing how quick the girl ran over. “Saving you is something I should duly do, there’s no need for you to bow to me.”

In the ignorant wench’s mind, all those amazing people should have some level of air around their themselves to differentiate from the common folks. And since she herself had become Huan Yin’s savior, she mustn’t lose out and decides to act smart to put on the act. Unfortunately for the once chubby fool, that’s a total miss on her end.

Nearly coming to a stumbling halt, the hopeful guest known as Huan Yin now shows a wary look. When did I bow to her, how come I didn’t know?

“Miss Ho, what’s wrong with your voice? Why do I feel like your voice has changed?” She asks, pursing her lip in the process.

Thankfully Ho Cui Cui herself still had a veil on right now, otherwise the expression she made in that instant would’ve been a big giveaway.

“Oh, I’m just a little uncomfortable in the throat. It’s normal for someone’s voice to change after going through what I did. It will heal in due time.”

Nodding her head in understanding, Huan Yin immediately asked again with another idea: “I have here some medicine to help heal your weakened body, would you like some?”

“This…. There’s no need,” Ho Cui Cui hurries to shake her head. “With my ability and strength, a little injury like this is nothing. So Miss Huan Yin, is there anything you need in coming to see me?”

Now the wariness was quickly growing inside her. Huan Yin may not know why but something iffy was up and she couldn’t quite figure out why.

“Miss Ho, where is that fox of yours?” Forcing a smile, she decides to go in a roundabout way to get some more information.

“Fox?” Staring wide eyed, Ho Cui Cui became puzzled.

That was enough for the already suspicious girl to reaffirm there’s something really wrong here. Huan Yin and Bai Yan may not be actual friends, but that doesn’t mean she’s blind. During the ride on the Dragon Boat, the girl could see how important that silvery fox was to the veiled female.

“You know, the silvery fox you were keeping by your arm’s length at all times during the incident?”

Silvery fox?

Getting anxious as well now knowing she’s screwed up, the fake hurries to make up a lie using a soft tone: “My poor fox was eaten by the dragons that day….”

“So that’s why,” not going to start prying, Huan Yin knew she’s overstepped her boundries after seeing the fake sorrow in the other side’s face. Taking a step back, “Miss Ho, I came today in order to thank you for saving me. In addition, I’m also here to formally invite you to my home for a visit after your injuries are healed. My father would like to personally thank you for the deed. It’s getting late and I should stop disturbing your rest.”

“Aehhh!” The first instinct Ho Cui Cui had there after hearing this was to reach out to stop this. Unfortunately for this deceiving wench, Huan Yin’s legs were much faster than those fingers.

Sighing over the departing figure: “That Huan Yin is too kind to me, she’s obviously only leaving so fast in order to let me rest. No matter, I will grace her with my presence once I’m in good health.”

Quit worrying you fool. The impersonation worked, otherwise she wouldn’t have invited yourself to her home just now. She kept murmuring this to herself as if its some kind of spell.

……

Back outside the Mu Manor’s doorway, Huan Yin was just about to board her carriage when the maid she brought along spoke up: “Miss, weren’t you really excited to meet Miss Ho? Why did you, back there…?”

Halting in her step over that question, she turns and stared meaningfully into the general direction of the inside: “This person, something’s not quite right about her.”

“What?” the maid exclaims.

“I don’t know why but I just feel there’s something very wrong about her. Though my interaction with the woman that day is short and brief, but the air and temperament this Ho Cui Cui gave me is completely different.” Biting her lip, Huan Yin knew she couldn’t let this slide: “We’re going back first, I need to let my father know about this so he can investigate the matter further!”
