Another servant looked over in confusion, but as soon as he turned his head, he felt a strong gust of wind sweep towards his face, followed by a "thud" sound, and a sudden, intense pain in his nose bridge.
Warm blood flowed down his nostrils in two streams. Mingshu, still not feeling vindicated, raised her foot and delivered a fierce kick between his legs!
"Aow—"
The servant, his face turning green, clutched at his crotch and fell to the ground.
Si Chu watched, his eye twitching slightly, deeply appreciating how gentle Mingshu usually was with him; he heard the girl muttering curses beside him.
"Have you eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, daring to lay a hand on the cub protected by this lady!"
Si Chu's brows twitched slightly, feeling a trace of warmth flow through his heart unnoticed.
