Though Beauty Was Lovely

Verdant Green Maiden sighed to herself.

"My lord?"

Noticing the look in her eyes, Third Lady grew somewhat flustered.

Just now, Verdant Green Maiden had looked so dashing that Third Lady's heart had nearly drifted away with her. Besides, she and the Jing River Young Master had never shared the slightest affection to begin with. In that back-and-forth, a few unusual feelings had unexpectedly arisen in her heart toward Verdant Green Maiden.

"Let's go!"

"I'll take you back to Dongting, shall I?"

Verdant Green Maiden said to her.

Third Lady was taken aback, then nodded, delight filling her face. She bowed deeply to Verdant Green Maiden. "Thank you, my lord!"

Verdant Green Maiden waved her hand. "No need to stand on ceremony with me."

Before leaving, Third Lady glanced back at the beautiful concubine.

"You want to make a move?"

Verdant Green Maiden noticed her gaze.

"No..."

Third Lady shook her head, though her brows remained furrowed.

"I was only wondering what will happen to her from now on."

"..."

"I couldn't tell you were so kind-hearted. You're even worried about her?"

Third Lady sighed. "The Jing River Young Master never liked me. Whether she was there or not, my situation would have been much the same."

After Third Lady said this, Verdant Green Maiden laughed and gave a slight nod.

"That way of thinking isn't bad!"

"This was all that big catfish's fault."

"Don't worry!"

"As long as she doesn't harm anyone, she can live a stable life in Jing River."

With Verdant Green Maiden's word, even those water-dwelling fiends in Jing River who had once served the Jing River Young Master would be unable to trouble that beautiful concubine.

Verdant Green Maiden swung herself onto the ox.

Third Lady took the initiative to lead the way ahead.
