Chapter 1097: Can't Catch Up Even by Riding a Horse Fast

Xuexue sat in front of her dressing table, wearing only her undergarments.

Zi Xia stood behind her, starting to style and prepare her appearance.

"Miss, what kind of hairbun would you like today?" Zi Xia asked as she gently ran a wooden comb through Xuexue's jet-black, long hair, stroke by stroke.

"Just the usual," Xuexue replied.

"Miss is absolutely stunning—whatever hairbun you wear, you'll always look gorgeous," Zi Xia complimented.

Xuexue chuckled softly, "Don't flatter me so much."

"I'm not flattering, Miss. I'm speaking the truth. Look at Second Miss—so haughty and full of herself, claiming she's both talented and beautiful. But if you ask me, she's not even worth a single finger of yours."

"Pfft!"

Xuexue couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Everyone says your mistress is just a country girl with no sophistication, but you're the only one who praises me."
