The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife: The Sly Lady

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

The maid said with a subtle smile and a gleam in her eyes.

Turning a blind eye to her, Murong Xue gently tapped Beibei on the head and said casually, “There are so many cute puppies with snow-white hair and black eyes. It is impossible that all of them belong to your master, right?”

The maid’s face sank in an instant. She had never met a woman who was as hard to deal with as Murong Xue. “Do you know who she is?” asked the maid.

“Who is it?” Murong Xue asked. At the same time, she thought inwardly, “Whoever your lady is, there is no reason for her to take my dog.”

“She is the daughter of the prime minister, Cang Susu!” that maid said word by word, her eyes gleaming with undisguised pride.

Murong Xue was dazed. The daughter of the Prime Minister? Wasn’t she just the sister of Cang Qiong and Cang Ying?

Seeing Murong Xue’s astonishment, the maid thought Murong Xue was stunned, bewildered by Cang Susu’s identity. The maid then continued, “Her Ladyship is His Highness’…”

“Why are you all standing here? Did you find the puppy?” A charming female voice suddenly rang.

Following the voice, Murong Xue saw a sixteen-year-old girl walking over. The girl wore a skirt embroidered with daffodils and a hairpin, which made her look not only gorgeous but also elegant.

Was the girl Gong Qianyu’s fiancée who Yuan Fangfei once mentioned? In terms of appearance and temperament, the girl and Gong Qianyu were perfect for each other.

The maid walked over to Cang Susu and said respectfully, “Miss, I have found the puppy but this girl is reluctant to give it to me.”

“Really?” Cang Susu frowned. Following the direction the maid pointed at, she found Murong Xue, who was beautiful with fair skin, a roman nose and rosy lips like a geisha.

Cang Susu’s face sank. She had always thought herself as a fair lady. The girl in front of her was no less beautiful and charming than her. The only difference between them was that the girl was younger, slimmer and less mature.

As Cang Susu looked down arrogantly, she saw Beibei. Her eyes were suddenly narrowed. The dog that refused to be close to her unexpectedly nestled in that girl’s arms.

Seeing this, Cang Susu walked over to Murong Xue. “My dog was lost. Thank you for catching it,” she said in a gentle but superior tone. “It means so much to me. Please return it to me.”

She was trying to take Beibei away by force! The daughter of the prime minister was arrogant.

Murong Xue frowned and said to Cang Susu coldly, “Do you have any evidence to prove that this dog belongs to you?”

Cang Susu smiled and pointed at the maids and manservants beside her, “They can prove that the dog belongs to me.”

The maids and manservants were startled and then reacted, nodding. “The puppy belongs to Her Ladyship.”

“Yes, yes, we’ve watched it grow up.”

“Yeah, Her Ladyship likes it so much.”

“Please return it to Her Ladyship.”

Not provoked by the annoying persuasion, Murong Xue said coldly, “They are all your subordinates and what they say is unconvincing. I can also find a bunch of servants to prove that this dog is mine.”

Cang Susu detected a hint of sarcasm in her words. “What should I do to let you return the puppy?” Cang Susu said coldly with her face darkened.

“Miss Cang, please show me more evidence other than what your maids and manservants provided. As long as you have unimpeachable proof, I will return the puppy immediately,” Murong Xue said with a proud and provocative smile.

Cang Susu’s little face darkened. She just tried to catch this puppy that ran past her mansion 15 minutes ago. How could she have any evidence to prove that it was her dog? However, she liked this puppy very much, so she was determined to get it.

“The puppy I raise likes to stick with me. If I hold it and it follows me, then it will be enough to prove this puppy is mine.” A strange smile flashed through the dark eyes of Cang Susu. Then she reached out to touch Beibei.

Murong Xue curled up the corners of her mouth silently and sneered. Beibei was too little to have enough strength to resist. Was Cang Susu planning to grab it and take it back home? That would be wishful thinking!

Hardly had Cang Susu touched Beibei’s soft white hair when Beibei barked loudly and jumped at her before Murong Xue could hold it up.

Unprepared, Cang Susu was thrown heavily to the ground. She screamed in pain.

Beibei scratched Cang Susu with its paws and her finery was almost torn to pieces. Beibei stared at her fiercely with contempt in its eyes. It was really annoying that this nasty woman asked her servants to catch it and almost hurt it.

Not seeing Beibei, Cang Susu waved her arms and slapped indiscriminately. She then sternly commanded, “Don’t just stand there. Get it off me.”

“Yes!” Her servants came over and wanted to separate Beibei and Cang Susu.

Beibei stopped and glanced at them for a while. Suddenly, it rushed into the crowd and disappeared in an instant.

The maids and manservants looked over for Beibei but all their efforts were in vain.

Murong Xue smiled meaningfully. Beibei was so smart that it fled and couldn’t be found when in trouble.

Helped by maids, Cang Susu stood up. Her finery was torn and ragged and her Chinese style chest covering embroidered with peony was faintly visible. There were three or four scratches on her skin.

Although Cang Susu was put into a very awkward position, she still kept her dignity and arrogance. When she failed to see Beibei, she turned round and shot a piercing glare at Murong Xue.
