Chapter 3042 Humiliation All the Time
"I knew there was something off about that child!" Ling stomped her feet and exclaimed, "Can't believe I gave her a second look. I never expected to be deceived like this."
"Maybe it's because you're not the sharpest tool in the shed," echoed the silent criticism from everyone present.
Meanwhile, Qiao Mu had discreetly slipped into the backyard of a peasant family. She borrowed a set of boy's clothes and hastily tidied herself up.
Examining her reflection in the water tank, she pondered, 'Although my figure has diminished, they might still recognize me if they scrutinize my face.'
Concerned, she retrieved a medicinal herb from her concealed bag, extracting its juice and applying it to her face. After a few moments, she inspected herself in the water tank, almost recoiling at her altered appearance.
Her petite face now sported an unnatural yellow hue, resembling a layer of yellow paint. Even she found it repulsive.
In her current state, no one would be able to recognize her when she stepped out. Her own mother wouldn't, let alone Second Qin.
Confidently, she emerged from the courtyard and unexpectedly crossed paths with Ling rushing over.
The young girl walked past Ling with an indifferent expression, her steps unsteady.
Though her face remained impassive, inwardly she felt a pang of devastation. Why did she have to encounter this woman at every turn?
The two passed each other. The young girl's steps faltered. Ling suddenly turned around, offering a coquettish smile. "Qiaoqiao."
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao maintained her composure, ignoring the address and continuing on her way.
Upon looking up, her dismay deepened. Second Qin and the man with the purple-gold hammer were tailing her, heading straight toward her.
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao dashed forward with an expressionless face, confident that even her beloved Lian wouldn't recognize her with such a sallow complexion.
Hehe, let alone Second Qin.
As long as she remained silent, who would suspect that this mini version of a short man was none other than Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao?
"Qiaoqiao…"
Second Young Sir Qin's voice possessed a magnetic quality, tinged with a hint of affection, making it oddly pleasant to the ear. However, to Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao, it sent shivers down her spine.
Impossible!
There was no way this man could recognize her.
The young girl continued walking toward the village entrance that led to the Spring River, maintaining a composed demeanor.
"Stop pretending," Second Young Sir Qin's voice reached her from behind. "Even if Qiaoqiao turns to ashes, I would still recognize her."
Qiao Mu: …
He must be bluffing. If she didn't regain her composure now, he would surely catch her!
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao held steadfast confidence!
It was inconceivable for Second Qin to discern anything from this muddy-yellow, altered appearance!
Trying to fool Qiaoqiao? Dream on!
The young girl continued her stride forward.
Ling couldn't help but chuckle. Why did she find this young girl so amusing?
Even after revealing herself, she remained comically deluded!
Second Young Sir Qin flashed forward, blocking Qiao Mu's path. He gazed at her with a sly smile and remarked, "Qiaoqiao, I truly recognize you."
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao harbored an overwhelming desire to slap his face!
Why couldn't this man remain oblivious to her identity?
Why did he have to be so vexing? Each time she brimmed with confidence, it seemed like she was met with a figurative slap in the face!
