CHAPTER 239: CHAPTER 239: THE MOST RUTHLESS OF THE TOP THREE YOUNG VILLAINS IN THE CAPITAL

There are five days left until Chinese New Year’s Eve.

Today is clear, the cold wind is not piercing, and when it occasionally blows, it brings the festive atmosphere of the New Year to every household.

Bai Zhi’er’s carriage stopped outside Rui’s Mansion.

The little one was carried down by Qingmei, looked up, and saw two large red lanterns hanging under the mansion’s eaves.

The gatekeeper saw four guards surrounding the carriage and knew a noble was visiting.

He hurried forward and bowed to inquire, "May I ask which family’s young lady is visiting the mansion, and do you have a visiting card?"

Bai Zhi’er looked up, blinking curiously, "Sister Qingmei, what is a visiting card?"

"A visiting card is when you go to someone’s home as a guest, out of etiquette, you write your name on a card for the house servants to present to the host."

Oh~ I see.

The first time she went to Prince Kang’s Mansion, Third Uncle directly carried her there.

So the gatekeeper at Prince Kang’s Mansion recognized her already, and Bai Zhi’er was never stopped whenever she visited.

This was the first time someone asked her for a visiting card.

The little one looked soft and adorable, her black eyes shining brightly like stars.

Bai Zhi’er said to the gatekeeper, "Gatekeeper Uncle, if I don’t have a visiting card, can’t I go in?"

Her tone was soft and polite.

Her delicate and lively little face looked so obedient.

The gatekeeper bent down with a smile, speaking patiently, "Unfortunately, young lady, today the Prince and Princess Consort have gone out hand in hand to admire the plum blossoms and are not at home."

It wasn’t the child’s fault for not bringing a visiting card; rather, why did the Prince and Princess Consort go out at this time?

The gatekeeper subconsciously showed a biased heart.

Bai Zhi’er pouted her little mouth in disappointment.

She originally intended to come and thank Uncle Rui for sending so much ginseng.

Maybe when the elder aunt cooked, it was a completely different taste compared to Third Aunt’s cooking!

"Alright then, I’ll come again next time." The little one waved her hand.

Just as she was about to leave,

suddenly there were extremely fast footsteps coming from behind.

Before Bai Zhi’er could turn her head back, her small body was embraced from behind.

An arm wrapped around her waist, like holding a doll.

A few clear and melodious laughs of a young man sounded behind her.

"Little Ball, I’ve caught you."

Qingmei was the first to turn around and hurriedly saluted, "Greetings to the Eldest Heir."

Upon hearing his voice, Bai Zhi’er remembered who he was.

The little one kicked and struggled, wanting to get down.

"I won’t play with the fierce brother! Let me go!"

Today, Bai Xuanmo wore an exceptionally eye-catching scarlet robe, lined with silver-white embroidery, with two symmetrically embroidered five-clawed silver dragons.

His raven-black hair was tied in a golden crown, his dark eyes were pitch-black, and his pale skin added a hint of cold elegance to his appearance.

At this moment, Bai Xuanmo raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint laugh at the corner of his mouth.

"You’ve only seen me once and called me fierce, since you’re mad at me, why not give me a chance to make it up to you?"

"Bai, Zhi, Er," Bai Xuanmo enunciated her name slowly, with a playful tone, "I’m your big brother."

The little one struggled for a long time but couldn’t break free from his hold.

She was so furious that she cutely ordered, "Guards, hit this bad guy for Zhi’er, drag him to the alley and spank him!"

The four Imperial Guards in plainclothes looked at each other.

It wasn’t that they disobeyed the Princess’s order.

But... facing the Eldest Heir, this was no ordinary situation!

Prince Rui’s eldest son, known in the capital as the most notorious of the three notorious youths.
