"You? Are you infected with a contagious disease?"
The maid from the outer compound might never set foot in the inner compound in her whole life, let alone meet Chenxing who resides there. Therefore, she did not recognize Chenxing. Seeing the patches of red swelling and the densely-packed rashes on her face, she was scared and shivered.
"I… I… I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose." Chenxing, clutching her torn oil-paper umbrella, hurriedly tried to escape.
However, the maid grabbed her wrist in the next second: "Who are you? Why are you here? Are you infected with a contagious disease?"
There were too many people coming and going today. This woman, her face covered in rashes, couldn't possibly have sneaked in, could she? Walking without looking and causing herself to bump into her, breaking such a high-end cup. If she had to pay for it, a month's salary wouldn't be enough. There was no way she was letting this woman escape.
