Li Meilin didn't know where she should take the laundry, so she simply wandered around the castle, searching for someone she could question. After walking for a while, she found another maid busy cleaning the floor in front of her.
"Good afternoon," Li Meilin said softly as she approached the young maid in front of her. Although she was in disguise, Li Meilin worried about being seen, so her heart was racing. Qi was flowing through her meridians, ready to channel into the woman if needed.
The maid raised her head from the floor, her eyes filled with confusion. "I'm cleaning the floor. This is my punishment for being late. No one is allowed to speak to me," the maid whispered with a trembling voice. "You should hurry; otherwise, Lady Hu will catch you!"
