Huh?
Xiao Jinfeng visibly froze when he heard the exchange between Jiang Xiaobai and the maid.
So... Jiang Xiaobai had gone to the pavilion without telling them the tune's name?
Yet after returning, Jiang Xiaobai had told His Majesty that he had!
He sucked in a breath!
He had to admit... this brat really had some nerve!
At that thought, Xiao Jinfeng gave Jiang Xiaobai a long, searching look.
He had met Jiang Xiaobai's eldest and second brothers. Both were fairly straightforward.
And Jiang Jingcheng, the Marquis of Northern Suppression, might have had a fiery temper and a forceful way of doing things, but he still had a line he would not cross.
Jiang Xiaobai, however, was different!
This brat had not merely crossed that line-he was hopping back and forth over it!
Everything the Northern Guardian Marquis's Estate had never dared say, this brat dared say without leaving out a single word!
Previously, Xiao Jinfeng had not thought much of it. He had simply assumed Jiang Xiaobai was a young man driven into defiant resistance after being pushed too far.
Now it seemed... this brat might well have done it deliberately!
At that thought, Xiao Jinfeng clicked his tongue twice, then looked at the maid. "Your attitude really wasn't very good!"
"How can you ask someone a question like that? Well? You've kicked an iron plate this time, haven't you?"
"Hmph!"
Hearing Xiao Jinfeng's words, the maid gritted her teeth, her face full of indignation.
Finally, unable to restrain herself, she pushed off the ground and rushed out again.
"Jiang Xiaobai, you're not leaving until you tell me!"
"Ah!"
Seeing this, Xiao Jinfeng sighed. He was just about to go over and offer a few words of persuasion when an explosive report suddenly rang out.
Bang!
The piercing sound
