1778: Utter Chaos

Utter Chaos

Seeing her determined eyes, Xiao Ruo Bai smiled suddenly, shook her head, and said, "I can't hide anything from you."1

Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows, so something really happened.

"Do you know that recently, many people from outside have come to Vast City?" Xiao Ruo Bai asked.

"I don't know. This Vast City is the duchy of Vast Region. Isn't it normal that there will be visitors from out of town?" Sima You Yue rebutted her.

"If that's the case, my Grandfather and the others would not be so nervous." Xiao Ruo Bai sighed, "Actually, they asked me to come over today to see if I can get any news from your side. But I think that you've just returned recently and probably don't know anything. That's why I proposed to go out shopping, we might be able to find some news while strolling along the streets!"

"If we can find some the news after strolling about, wouldn't they already know them?" Sima You Yue pointed out.

"That's true…" Xiao Ruo Bai said, "but since I'm already here, let's just take it as an excuse and let's go shopping!"

"You aren't very familiar with Vast City, right? Let me bring you around and you'll soon get familiar with it." Xiao Ruo Bai declared.

Sima You Yue didn't refuse either. She didn't go to many places the last time. Now that Murong Hui was not at home, so it was alright to go out and stroll around.

When Ting Shui heard that she decided to go out, she went to report to Murong Lin. He wasn't very concerned about where she was going but when he knew that she would be heading out, he had to pay attention to her safety. 

When they were about to leave, Blacky ran out and barked twice at Sima You Yue.

"Be good, stay home and play." Sima You Yue lowered her head and said.

"Woo woo-" Blacky bit the corner of her skirt, as if saying 'if you don't take me along, I won't let you go'.

"This little guy is still like this." Xiao Ruo Bai saw Blacky's face and missed the little silly dog that she spent with at the Atavistic Orchid Mountain.

"No!" Sima You Yue said, "What should you do if you go out and you are not obedient?"

"Woo woo woo-" It won't!

"Really?"

Blacky nodded its head vigorously with affirmation.

"Alright, then." Sima You Yue agreed, and Blacky immediately let go of her skirt.

Blacky usually played around in the manor. The first time he went out, everything he saw was fresh and new to him, so he would run here to look at it two times and run there to look at it at few times, behaving very much like a person.

Sima You Yue and Xiao Ruo Bai followed, looking at it speechlessly. But it just went around to explore and didn't do anything to hurt others, so they didn't care.

The people on the streets were very angry when they saw Blacky making trouble at first, but when they saw Sima You Yue who was following, they didn't dare to speak again.

"Xi'er, the spirit cloth in this shop is pretty good, let's go in and have a look." Xiao Ruo Bai took her to a shop selling clothes.

"Alright." Sima You Yue called Blacky back and took it into the shop with her.

Blacky was fast and rushed in before the people guarding the entrance of the store could stop it, while Sima You Yue and Xiao Ruo Bai were stopped outside.

"My family's lady is inside, you can't go in." The person at the door stretched out his hand and said with a cold face.

"This door is wide open, why can't we enter?" Xiao Ruo Bai was a little surprised, looking at the attendant by the side.

The attendant who knew Xiao Ruo Bai and Sima You Yue quickly stepped forward and explained with a smile: "My Lady, Young Miss Xiao, I'm really sorry, Dong Clan's Young Miss came today and has reserved the whole shop. So it is closed to others today."

"Closed to others today? When did your Iridescent Clouds Pavilion start to allow such reservations of the entire shop?" Xiao Ruo Bai asked.

"This... isn't a reservation of the entire shop but my Young Master is entertaining friends." The attendant explained.

"For one moment, you said that Dong Clan's Young Miss has booked the entire venue, and the next moment is that your Young Master is entertaining friends. You keep changing your words, do you think we are so easily fooled?" Xiao Ruo Bai said with a cold face.

"Young Miss Xiao, don't be angry, I really don't mean that. Our Iridescent Clouds Pavilion usually doesn't allow others to book the entire shop. It is precisely because Young Miss Dong is a good friend of my Young Master that he will let them book the entire shop." The attendant smiled." I'm really sorry about today. Both of you will get a 20% discount on the shop when you come the next time."

"Dong Clan's Young Miss? Dong Qi Shuang?" Sima You Yue asked.

"No, Dong Qi Shuang doesn't have such a big name. It is most probably Dong Qi Lian who is the one who engaged in such a big battle." Xiao Ruo Bai snorted coldly, "Only that woman likes to pay attention to such useless antics."

"Who is Dong Qi Lian?" Sima You Yue asked.

"Dong Clan's Young Miss, Dong Qi Shuang's relatives, the best gifted Junior of the Dong Clan . She also has a good relationship with that litte concubine, and often runs to the palace to stay. When we first came back, we heard that she was still in the palace. Hmph, I didn't expect her to be back so soon." Xiao Ruo Bai snorted.

"Then we..."

Sima You Yue hadn't finished speaking when a shrill scream from inside resounded.

"Aaahhhhh! Where did the dog come from! Kill it for me!"

Then came a whole chorus of chaotic voices mixed with Blacky's cry.

"Kill it! Kill it!"

"What are you still doing?! Don't you know that my sister hates underworld dogs the most? Where did this underworld dog come from?!" Dong Qi Shuang's voice was as shrill as ever.

"Eldest Miss, Second Miss, we don't know how this one got in! Let's chase it out!"

"What nonsense are you uttering? Who said anything about chasing?! Kill it on the spot!" A female voice resounded, and it sounded like Dong Qi Lian.

"This….yes!"

Sima You Yue and Xiao Ruo Bai rolled their eyes helplessly when they heard the movement inside.

"I forgot that Dong Qi Lian was chased by many stray dogs when she was young, so she hated dogs since she was a child. Since she saw Blacky, I'm afraid..." Xiao Ruo Bai said with some worry.

"Woof, woof, woof!" Blacky's cheerful barks resounded next, it didn't sound that it had suffered one bit!

Xiao Ruo Bai saw that Sima You Yue did not intend to go in, nor was she anxious, and asked, "Aren't you worried about Blacky?"

"What's to worry about? It won't be the one who suffers." Sima You Yue was calm.

Xiao Ruo Bai wanted to say how can you be so confident, but listening to the movement inside, it seems that Blacky was indeed fine.

Wasn't Blacky an ordinary dog? Is it so powerful and can escape so much manpower from it?

"Bang——Bang——"

"Aaahhhh!!!!"

It was uter chaos inside, and the people guarding outside were worried and ran in to help.

"No one is stopping us now, let's go in and take a look," Sima You Yue said and strode in.

"What kind of dog is this, why is it so fast?!"

Every time he wanted to catch it, it would slip away. Was this speed really something a dog could attain?

"Are you all a bunch of rubbish? So many people can't even catch one mere dog? When did my Dong Clan raise such a bunch of rubbish?!"

Sima You Yue walked in and saw Dong Qi Shuang standing beside a woman with a similar appearance and a good-looking man standing on the side. In the shop, a group of people were sprawled on the ground, while a few chased Blacky everywhere.. .
