He has always enjoyed flirting with proper women, finding delight in their mix of fear and anger after being teased.
But the woman before him defied his expectations.
Faced with his words, the woman's expression remained unchanged as she simply sidestepped him and took another path.
Seeing this, Zhang Xingzhi blocked the woman's path again, his interest piqued even more.
"Miss, are you unwilling to tell me? I assure you I am no villain; my father is the relief envoy, an official here to save you from hardship!"
By right, revealing his family background should have made the woman cautious.
However, the woman merely offered a polite salutation: "Sir, I have urgent matters to attend to, I kindly request that you do not obstruct my path."
This woman was none other than Shaoxi, who had just finished her tasks and was on her way to check on Wenxuan's health.
Unexpectedly, she was stopped by Zhang Xingzhi.
