Ye Jiu returned to the room, called for Serving Maid, and asked, "Did you hear everything I just said to Prince Jing?"
"I heard... I heard it." Serving Maid also had a premonition, feeling as though she might have overheard something incredibly serious.
She was so frightened. Could the young lady kill to silence her?
Fortunately, Ye Jiu only gave her a slight scolding, "I don't care what you heard or what you've thought, but you must take everything I just said to Prince Jing to the grave. You absolutely cannot speak of it, understood?"
"Understood." Serving Maid immediately felt as if she had been given a new lease on life.
"Alright, you may leave now," Ye Jiu instructed.
A moment later, Ye Bai barged in carelessly, "Master, today it was because you called me that I transformed into a human in front of everyone. You can't blame this mistake on me."
Ye Jiu immediately slapped her forehead, cursing Prince Jing for having frazzled her to the point of losing her composure.
