Chapter 3: The Crowd Becomes a Tiger

"It seems like you don't know who I am," the man spoke, raising his chin slightly, blocking Mei's path.

Mei raised her eyebrows and spoke in a cold voice, "Whoever you are, please move aside."

The man casually sized her up, then smirked with a hint of arrogance, and beckoned with his finger, exuding a natural aura of dominance, "Come here."

Mei knew that delaying any further would not benefit her at all. She took a few steps forward, pretending, and then, taking advantage of the man's distraction, she kicked away the wooden stool blocking her path, broke through the window, and agilely darted out like a cheetah!

At the same time, a dark shadow leaped from the rooftop, chasing after Mei!

The man's lips curled lazily as he stood up, his robe half-open, strolling to the window, seemingly in control of everything.

But this time, the result was unexpected...

The dark shadow returned, kneeling on the ground with a look of unprecedented shame.

"Master..."

The man turned around, his eyes calm and composed, "Where is she?"

"Lost her," the dark shadow lowered his head heavily, even he couldn't believe that someone could be faster than him! And that person was a woman...

The man's fingers paused as he dressed, a playful and icy look deepening in his dark eyes, "Find a way to locate her. If you can't find her..."

"I am willing to accept punishment," the dark shadow bowed, not daring to stand up.

The man's lips curved, and he draped his robe, the light from outside casting a delicate blush on his bare waist.

He lowered his head and snapped his fingers...

In the distance, a series of dark shadows appeared at the man's feet, a total of eighteen people, all dressed in ancient clothing, showing utmost respect, "Your Highness!"

The man spoke, naturally exuding arrogance, "Prepare the sedan chair, we're returning to the palace."

Meanwhile, in the bustling streets of the capital city...

Mei had just shaken off her pursuers when she heard a loud voice.

"Third Miss, Young Master, we've found Second Miss!"

The person shouting was Madam Li, yelling so loudly that it seemed like she wanted the whole world to know Mei's identity!

Sure enough, a crowd gathered, and when they looked at her, there was strong disdain and contempt, as if she were some filthy thing that would make them sick.

Faint whispers could be heard in the crowd.

"I never thought that a fool like her would do such a thing, she's really disgraced the Mei family!"

"If I were Master Mei, I would have kicked her out of the Mei residence long ago, too dirty!"

"Disgusting!"

As a large group of people spoke maliciously, Mei remained cold and proud, not even lifting her eyebrows, just staring at Madam Mei with her deep, dark eyes, "Is this the result you wanted?"

"Second Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand at all," Madam Mei bit her lip pitifully, her beautiful eyes filled with watery innocence, as if she were about to cry, extremely aggrieved.
