Chapter 19: The Letter Was Written by Your Sister

Xue Qi’s eyes lit up, and she quickly bowed to Wang Baochuan in gratitude, “Thank you, Third Miss, for your guidance.”

Then she hesitated. Wei Bao wouldn’t let her go out. Wei Bao said that those villains were ruthless and looked like they were seeking revenge, and if Xue Qi went out casually, she might be in danger.

Wang Baochuan understood her concerns and patted her chest confidently, “Don’t worry, you can find someone to write the complaint for you, I’ll help you find your brother and give him the complaint.”

“Then he can go to the Ministry of Justice to file it.”

Xue Qi was overjoyed and overwhelmed with gratitude. She knelt down and thanked Wang Baochuan repeatedly.

“Thank you, Third Miss, for your help. My brother and I will never forget your kindness.”

Wang Baochuan helped her up, “You don’t need to thank me.”

She didn’t need to thank her.  She wasn’t being kind, if it weren’t for wanting to expose Wei Bao’s ruthless nature, she wouldn’t have bothered.

Xue Qi could read, so she personally wrote the complaint and a letter, begging Wang Baochuan to give it to her brother when she found him.

Wang Baochuan agreed.

After leaving Wei Bao’s courtyard, Xiaolian was confused, “Miss, you followed Second Miss to the Wei mansion just to help that Miss Xue?”

“How could that be?  It’s just seeing injustice and doing something about it.” Wang Baochuan corrected her.

“But if Second Miss knows you’re meddling, she’ll definitely make things difficult for you.” Xiaolian was still afraid of Second Miss.

“Xiaolian, how can you be afraid of trouble?  I’m helping others, that’s all.”

“You saw how pitiful Miss Xue was crying.”

She didn’t wait for Second Sister to wake up, she left the Wei mansion directly.  Then she sent someone to the dilapidated temple to find Xue Pinggui.  The person she sent didn’t find Xue Pinggui until dusk.

He brought Xue Pinggui to the city gate, and Wang Baochuan was already waiting there.

“Miss Wang!” Xue Pinggui was overjoyed.  Since he learned Wang Baochuan’s identity, he had developed a different kind of feeling for her.

“You sent someone to call me, what’s the matter?” He couldn’t help but lean closer, Wang Baochuan subconsciously took a step back before handing him the letter and complaint in her sleeve.

“Miss, you…” Xue Pinggui blushed instantly.  He had only met Miss Wang a few times, and she was already writing him letters.

He took the letter with trembling hands and said softly, “Miss, why couldn’t you say it in person?”

“I know there are many rumors about Miss lately, but I don’t care.  In my heart, Miss is always as bright as the moon.”

Wang Baochuan felt a bitter taste in her mouth, the taste of wild vegetables from eighteen years ago came to mind.  She had to admit that Xue Pinggui was quite handsome, his voice was pleasant when he spoke sweet nothings, and he was sincere and moving.

But wild vegetables… ugh…

“Miss, what’s wrong with you?”

Wang Baochuan covered her mouth and nose with her embroidered handkerchief, she said disdainfully, “Don’t misunderstand, Mr. Xue, this letter is from your sister, she asked me to give it to you.”

“Xue Qi! Where is my sister?”

Xue Pinggui was excited.  He had almost searched the entire capital for Xue Qi, but he hadn’t found her.  He thought she had met with an accident!

“She’s at the Wei mansion, she said Wei Bao saved her.  Alright, I’ve delivered the letter, goodbye.”

Wang Baochuan got into the carriage neatly and headed towards the Prime Minister’s mansion.

From afar, she could still hear Xue Pinggui’s voice in the wind, “Miss Wang, will we meet again?”

Wang Baochuan sat in the spacious and comfortable carriage, which could accommodate seven or eight people.  She leaned back against the soft cushions, with sour plum candies and snacks in front of her.

“Miss, I think Mr. Xue has feelings for you…” Xiaolian was about to tease her.

She automatically filtered Xiaolian’s words and turned to Qingqing, “My mouth is a little bitter, I want to eat honey lotus cakes, Qingqing, go back and tell the kitchen to make some.”
