"Miss, our young lady just woke up and she is still very weak. She is resting now. It is really inconvenient to meet guests. Please come back tomorrow." Green Bamboo voiced out loudly.

Then a sharp and arrogant voice yelled: "House maid, you dare to stop this lady? Do you want to be killed by a stick? Do you want to let me go away?"

*Paah!*

With that sound, it was obvious that Lu Zhu had been slapped. Zhao Ling couldn't help frowning, and a wave of disgust rose in his heart for no reason. Zhao Ruo, the second lady of Jiang, from the Cui family, relied on the love of Zhao Jiang and Cui family. She was arrogant and self-willed. She was a typical stubborn daughter.

The original owner of her body secretly did not know how much she suffered during her lifetime, only because of the original owner's weak perception and deceptive temperament. She could only dare to be angry but dared not speak every time.

Zhao Ling put down the porridge bowl and motioned to Mother Xu to let Zhao Ruo in. Mother Xu took out a gauze and tied it carefully on Zhao Ling's face to cover the scars on her face, and then raised her voice: "Green Bamboo, let the second lady come in."

Zhao Ruo snorted coldly, walked into the house pretentiously, smelled the smell of medicine, took out the veil and fanned herself exaggeratedly. Then she said in a sharp voice: "Oh, big sister is really blessed. I know you can't die in such a big fire. You even woke up so soon!"

This was too much. Lu Zhu could not calm down at first, and was about to come forward to tell Zhao Ruo this, but was held back by Mother Xu. Mother Xu shook her head silently to signal her to calm down, then moved to Zhao Ling's side, standing nearby to protect her position.

Zhao Ling glanced at Zhao Ruo faintly. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, wearing a beautiful pink garment and skirt, her hair was shining from ointments, and her body was jeweled. She had bright eyes and white teeth. She was simply pretty and gorgeous, but she had her head up and her chest high and her toes. She was obviously a spoiled daughter. .

She searched her new memory and found that the cowardly original owner suffered a lot from this lady's hand. To the extent that every time she heard her voice, she would become frightened.

Thinking of this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Ruo coldly. Zhao Ruo looked at Zhao Ling, who was under the veil, and icyly glanced at her for a moment. Was this still the same Zhao Ling who was panicking and trembling when she saw her?

Zhao Ling told herself not to be angry with a little girl like this, so she leisurely sat on the bed while eating porridge, and said: "As you can see, I can't die. Now that you've seen me, you can leave. The doctor said I need to rest."

"Zhao Ling, I came to see you kindly, but you drove me away. I really don't know what's wrong with you!" Zhao Ruo said angrily: "This lady heard that you were disfigured, so I came here to take a good look at you." She looked at Zhao Ling's face, a gloating expression on her face.

Zhao Ling just frowned, but still ignored her. For people like Zhao Ruo, she thought she didn't need to give them a good face.

Zhao Ruo became more angry when she saw that she was completely ignored. If Zhao Ling was still cowering as before, maybe she would not be so angry, but today's Zhao Ling was too different from what she imagined. Calm enough to make her flustered. So she stepped forward, rushed to the bed, and stretched out her hand to tear off the scarf on Zhao Ling's face.

Zhao Ling sighed secretly, thinking that this child was really troublesome, and she couldn't drive her away. Was this girl really determined to embarrass herself today?

Seeing Zhao Ruo shot her hand towards her, Zhao Ling instinctively raised her hand and firmly grasped Zhao Ruo's wrist. Zhao Ruo, who was suddenly grabbed by her wrist, staggered under her feet, and fell on the edge of the bed. Zhao Ling quickly pulled a gold hairpin from her head, pressed it against the girl's face, and said coldly: "Second sister, if you are restless, and my hand shakes, what do you think will happen?"

The cold hairpin touched her face, and Zhao Ruo was frightened in an instant. She turned her pale face, and she said with a lack of breath: "You...you are bold. Let me go!"

Zhao Ling raised her eyebrows and smiled, but she didn't move her hand at all, and confronted her calmly. She has learned grappling and Sanshou, and her combat effectiveness is pretty good. She still doesn't pay attention to a little girl who runs rampantly.

Zhao Ruo almost vomited blood, she had never suffered so much on Zhao Ling's hands, and Zhao Ling was the only one who shed tears in front of her. She glared angrily, and shouted fiercely at the two maids who were at a loss behind her: "You two mean maids, you can't help?!"

Since Zhao Ling's actions were too quick just now, and the two maids who were used to seeing so weak, were really shocked for a while. At this time, they heard Zhao Ruo's cry, and they wanted to move forward and pull Zhao Ling away but stopped. Mother Xu and Lu Zhu were firmly protected by Zhao Ling all this while, and the two maids didn't want to get close for a while.

Lu Zhu and Mother Xu were fed up with Zhao Ruo's anger on them every weekdays. It was a rare occasion to raise their eyebrows today, and they were naturally happy.

Although they were also confused in their hearts, today's young lady was different from the past. So calm, indifferent, and decisive. Very different from usual. But no matter what the young lady became, the young lady will always be their young lady. The object they must desperately protect.

Zhao Ruo stared at Zhao Ling angrily, a pair of beautiful amber eyes almost bursting into flames.

Zhao Ling looked at Zhao Ruo condescendingly, and said faintly: "Second sister, I am in low spirits today. If you don't leave, my hands will be weak. Then don't blame me for scratching your face. You don't want your face to be like mine, do you?"

Although Zhao Ruo was arrogant and domineering, she was not a fool at all. Compared with being humiliated, of course her own face was more important. She could only hold back this tone secretly, and left with a face full of unwillingness. Secretly thinking, today's account, no matter what, she would have to make a clear plan with Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling leaned on the bedside again to breathe. Sure enough, this body was still too weak, otherwise with her original physique, how could she feel tired like this?

Lu Zhu and Mother Xu also breathed a sigh of relief. They were now looking at Zhao Ling with different eyes to before. Lu Zhu was even more excited. The young lady was so powerful today that she dared to confront Zhao Ruo face-to-face, and she still didn't suffer for it. She concluded she could finally stop being angry with those people in the future!

Whereas, mother Xu was more gratified. After experiencing a big fire and coming out alive, the young lady had become stronger. Madam was alive in the sky. *We must bless my lady no more hardships, only peace and joy!*

To deal with a savage and willful lady like Zhao Ruo, you must cut the knife quickly and accurately as if she was dissecting a corpse. Zhao Ling secretly said in her heart while she continued to eat her unfinished bowl of porridge.

After eating the porridge, she decided to take advantage of her renewed energy. She walked to the yard outside to have a look. Someone came again.
