Chapter 1802 - 1404: Who’s More Precious?

So when the maid Ling Dang asked that question, Yuan Bao answered without realizing anything was wrong, but Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue were unbearably embarrassed!

They were embarrassed outside the carriage, and Gu Changsheng inside the carriage was embarrassed too!

In the past, she at least had Xiao Cui and the others with her. Even if they weren’t, there would be someone else. But now, great, outside was a clean sweep of men!

Men, men everywhere—having a bunch of men fussing around that kind of thing of hers, Gu Changsheng swore, their embarrassment was nothing compared to her own!

"You! You pervert!" The moment Ling Dang heard the words Menstrual Belt, her pretty face exploded red. She raised a hand and pointed at Yuan Bao, furious.

Busy wrestling with the Menstrual Belt, Yuan Bao had actually just answered Ling Dang’s question on instinct and hadn’t put any thought into it. But when he heard Ling Dang say that, Yuan Bao immediately took it to heart!

Who was Yuan Bao?

He was a Little Eunuch!

He’d been alive nearly twenty years now; people had called him all sorts of things, but no one had ever called him a pervert!

That label would be perfectly normal for an ordinary man, but for the not-so-normal Yuan Bao, it was strangely fresh!

"Pervert? I actually do want to be a pervert..." Yuan Bao curled his lip. He really did want to be a pervert, but he had to have the equipment for being a pervert, right!

"You... you..." Even though Ling Dang was a tough, bold little maid, faced with a Yuan Bao like this, she was completely at a loss for words!

Although Northern Mongolian women were fierce and careless, a woman was still a woman. The most basic sense of shyness was still there!

"You what, you! If you’ve got something to say, say it. If you’ve got nothing, then beat it. Can’t you see we’re busy!" Yuan Bao glared at Ling Dang. He felt insulted. So what if he wasn’t a man? So what if he couldn’t act like a pervert? Did she really have to trample his existence like this?

"You think I wanted to come? If it weren’t for my lady speaking up for you lot and sending me to ask what you needed, I wouldn’t have bothered with this trip!" When Ling Dang heard Yuan Bao’s words, she was instantly fuming and snapped back irritably. Then she pouted, and before Yuan Bao could speak, she continued, "Looking at you like this, you clearly don’t need anything. I’ll go back and report to my lady right now, hmph!"

With that, Ling Dang turned to leave.

"Stop!" But just as Ling Dang turned to go, an incomparably awkward voice from Gu Changsheng rang out from inside the carriage.

"What? You’re the ones who told me to go!" Ling Dang turned back, her tone far from friendly.

"I’m missing something in here!" Lying in the carriage, Gu Changsheng stared at the roof, the corner of her mouth twitching. "I’m short of a maid to serve me. Go report back to Landuoer, then hurry back here!"

After Gu Changsheng said this, she practically wanted to burst into tears.

Yes, at this very moment, she really was short of a maid. Otherwise, who was going to tell her how to deal with all the bloodstains in this carriage? Have her do it herself?

Zhou Mu would never let her do it. Then what, have Zhou Mu do it?

Oh my god, with all this blood everywhere, Gu Changsheng would rather die than let her own evildoer see such a sight again in this lifetime, let alone have her clean it up!

In truth, Gu Changsheng’s body was feeling very unwell right now—truly unwell. It wasn’t that she’d gotten used to being waited on, it was that she genuinely didn’t have the strength to move!

Just when she was desperately in need of a woman, Ling Dang showed up. Although the girl was a bit unfriendly toward them, at least her gender was female!

That alone was enough for Gu Changsheng to call her back!

Gu Changsheng felt that what she said was just asking for help, nothing more. But once it reached Ling Dang’s ears, the flavor changed completely!

"What? You’re telling me to come serve you? Who do you think you are? Some big shot? You really think you’re something, huh!" Pointing at the carriage, Ling Dang’s face immediately filled with mockery. "Let me tell you, the ground beneath your feet is the territory of the Tashi Tribe. I’m the most capable person by Second Miss of the Tashi Tribe’s side. You think you’re worthy of having me serve you?"

"Shut up!"

Just as Ling Dang’s words fell, a cold shout came from inside the carriage. Lying there, Gu Changsheng’s expression darkened. She raised her hand, and grabbed toward the source of Ling Dang’s voice...

Her slender fingers were long and fine, her nails trimmed neatly...

But the instant Gu Changsheng lifted her hand, Ling Dang standing outside the carriage suddenly changed color, letting out an involuntary cry, "Ah!"

Then her whole body lifted from the ground as if yanked up, flying uncontrollably toward the inside of the carriage...

The five spread fingers clamped precisely around Ling Dang’s neck as she tumbled into the carriage. Gu Changsheng lay slanted on the long fur blanket, her Phoenix Eyes dark and heavy as she said in a low voice, "You’d better know what’s good for you. Don’t talk about your mistress Landuoer— even your Clan Leader wouldn’t dare speak to me like that!"

"You... you..." With her neck gripped in someone’s hand, Ling Dang’s face went chalk white, her expression changing rapidly.

"Go report back to Landuoer, then come here and serve me. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you have no mistress left, and you’ll have no choice but to come serve me!" A dangerous light flashed through her Phoenix Eyes as Gu Changsheng’s threat left her lips without the slightest hesitation.

To scare a little maid, Gu Changsheng felt this was about enough.

"You should’ve seen my skills. Tell me, is it your hundred‑strong team that’s more formidable, or the thousands of wolves in Evil Wolf Valley?" The corner of her lips hooked into a mocking arc as Gu Changsheng locked eyes with Ling Dang and continued coldly, "If I can kill a wolf with one move, I can wipe all of you out with one move. If you don’t want to die, you’d better learn a bit from your young lady— those who know the times are the true heroes."

"You... you..." Hearing this, Ling Dang’s face turned even paler.

She had always known her own status, and how incomparably noble her young lady was, yet she had completely overlooked how terrifying this woman she looked down on was in martial arts!

Staring at that bright, beautiful face in front of her and the arrogance etched into every line of it, for no reason at all, Ling Dang just felt this woman wasn’t lying to her. If she said she dared kill all of them, then she really did dare!

"Scram!"

Spitting out a single cold word, Gu Changsheng twisted her hand and flung Ling Dang out of the carriage.

This girl had been nitpicking her, finding fault with everything, for more than a day or two now. Gu Changsheng really had had enough. If she didn’t have use for her this time, she wouldn’t have let her loiter in front of her at all!

Ling Dang, who’d been thrown out of the carriage, finally managed to scramble up from the ground. She didn’t even dare look at the person standing by the bonfire, and just took off running toward her young lady’s camp as fast as her legs would carry her!

Her face bloodless, she had only one thought in her heart at this moment: that woman was too terrifying!

The encampment of Landuoer’s hundred‑odd people was not far ahead of Gu Changsheng’s group. When Landuoer saw Ling Dang running over in a panic, her brows couldn’t help but crease. "What’s wrong? Why are you so flustered?"

"Miss! Miss, that woman wants to kill us! She wants to kill us! She’s so scary!" Her lips had gone pale from fright. The moment Ling Dang saw Landuoer, she pounced over like a drowning fish thrown back into water, babbling incoherently.

"What do you mean, kill us? Didn’t I tell you to ask if they were lacking anything? Why would she want to kill you? Don’t tell me you didn’t do as I said and did something to offend her?" Landuoer’s expression changed at once, her tone turning heavier. "Speak! What exactly did you do to provoke her? Haven’t I told you over and over that she cannot be offended, that you absolutely cannot afford to offend her?"

"I... Miss... I..." Seeing her young lady this unusually serious, Ling Dang panicked even more. After collecting herself, she finally said, "She wanted me to go serve by her side. I didn’t want to, so..."

"She asked you to go serve her? Why?" Landuoer’s brows furrowed even tighter at that.

"This maid... this maid saw that fat Servant by her side making a Menstrual Belt, so I figured she... she..." Ling Dang faltered shyly. Before she could finish, Landuoer already understood.

She kicked Ling Dang once and said, her gorgeous little face full of urgency, "Then why didn’t you stay there and serve her? What did you come back for? Go, hurry! If you don’t go, do you expect your own Miss to personally go serve her?"

"Miss?" Ling Dang was horrified at once.

Someone as precious as her young lady, going to serve that woman?

How was that possible?

"Miss what Miss! Forget it, I’ll take you over there myself. Someone, bring the hot milk we brought, and the cane sugar from the Central Plains as well. And send a fast horse back to the main city to get some light dishes sent over..." As Landuoer spoke, she was already walking out of the tent.

"Miss? You..." Ling Dang was already dizzy from this string of orders. She stared at her in disbelief and said, "Even rushing back to the main city to bring things over will take at least two or three Shichen..."

That woman just got her period; did it really require such a big fuss?

Even when her own Miss felt unwell, they’d never gone to such lengths. Could it be that woman was even more precious than her own Miss?

That was how she was thinking in her heart, and that was exactly what Ling Dang asked out loud.

Seeing that her subordinates had already gone off to gather what she’d ordered, Landuoer turned back and, hearing Ling Dang’s words, couldn’t help but smile. She shook her head at Ling Dang and said, "You actually got it right. That woman really is much more precious than I am. Not just me— in front of her, all the women under heaven would pale in comparison. Only you, silly as you are, would dare pull a face at her. You have no idea you’re courting death!"

"If anything happens to her in my Tashi Tribe, don’t say the Tashi Tribe— I’m afraid even all of Northern Mongolian together wouldn’t be enough to pay for it! Still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and come with me!"

"Miss..." Ling Dang had already been frightened stupid by her young lady’s words. She could only woodenly take the things the others brought in, hold them in her arms, and follow Landuoer toward the place where Gu Changsheng’s two carriages were parked...

When Landuoer led Ling Dang over, Yuan Bao still hadn’t figured out what to do with the Menstrual Belt...
