Peerless Alchemist: Useless Sixth Miss

"Eeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!"

It was at that moment that a sudden shriek erupted from within the room. They all turned their head to direction of the noise, followed by a loud bang as the doors flung open. A female figure sprint out. The servants upon seeing their mistress dashed out n.a.k.e.d, they rendered mute and shock swallowing their previous words.

"Who…?" The servants loss for words, each and every of their face echoed each other's disbelief.

"What happened?"

"Who is it?" Observing closely, the serving girls cry out: "It's...Seventh Miss. What happened to Seventh Miss? What happened?" Niuqi dumbfounded at the sight, her mouth gulping for air.

Bai Ruo Yan looked completely disheveled and dirty. Her hair completely in disarray and dust-fill, not a single accessory was like jade hairpin can be seen, on top that blood was trickling down her forehead, dirtying her white complex. Before it was pitiful but now it was too hideous to look at. Still trembling uncontrollably, she cried out at the top of her lung: "Ghost...spare me please sister, Sixth Sister...spare me….it wasn't me... it wasn't me…Please don't come after me….."

"Sixth Miss, what wrong?"

"Miss…..what is the matter with you?"

Under the confusion, all attention was on screaming Zhang Xiu, her lip trembling at abnormally rhythm, open and close then open again, like fish that tossed out of water.

Some servant ran after Zhang Xiu in hope to calm the scaredy-cat down.

"Sixth Miss, please wait…"

"Wait…wait"

Left behind in the courtyard are Niuqi whose colour drained from her face, few more maid and fallen Danqiang who too hurt to get up by herself and puzzled Xiaohui.

Even after all the shouting and quivering, Zhang Xiu staggered. All the while muttering "ghost" as she ran out of the courtyard.

With slow and even steps, Rong Fangsu leisurely followed behind them.

At the entrance to the street opposite the Zhang Minor, many people came by and left. As she approach the propitiate distance before parting her sweet lip.

With a strong clear audible voice, Rong Fangsu shouted out: "Come see. Noble Zhang Manor's Seventh Miss is running around the streets n.a.k.e.d! She's n.a.k.e.d without single piece of clothes! Zhang Seventh Miss is a sight to see! A high standing young lady with fair skin, great asset! She not bad and it costs no silver!"

When everyone heard the loud shouts, they couldn't help but become anticipate. Many people walking across the street heard the announcement and gather wishing to see a good show.

Suddenly, a n.a.k.e.d lady burst out scaring all in the vicinity drawing their utmost attention to her.

People started to gather, standing in a circle and pointed fingers at her, the mass surround Zhang Xiu from all sides blocking her escape. Not only was she trapped within the human circle, more and more people started to gather. Chatter and gossip amongst themselves in joyful tone as they watch ongoing commotion.

"Not bad, not bad, such fair skin for madwoman"

"Ahh, this crazy lady actually looks quite decent. Such a shame, that she's a bit lacking in the brains category. Such a waste"

Then another cut in––

"I have an idea, I have a younger brother who is a bit retarded, in late thirty and he has yet to marry. I wonder if I can take her home and give him a wife? Hehehehe!"

"Oii, did you not hear?" A middle-age man interrupted them as he continued "you sure dream well! Didn't you hear what the person just said? She is from noble house, the Zhang Manor's Seventh Miss. Even if she brainless I though the Zhang will allow…"

"Woah but since she's an idiot, do you not think they make an exception?"

"She is still a noble Miss. Even if she was an idiot, do you think your brother can match her?"

"What? How could this be? I only heard that the Sixth Miss of Zhang family being a trash but... Aren't the Seventh Miss' talents quite decent?"

"Then why this….?"

"Ahhh, but such action? How could she be an idiot? Not to mention, running around the street n.a.k.e.d?"

"But that face, I remembered it's really Seventh Miss Zhang ah..."

"What? You didn't see wrongly?"

"Are you sure?"

"Of course I didn't see wrongly! My aunt's next door neighbor's great aunt's elder cousin from her mother's side…..is also from of Zhang Manor's household. How could I possibly be wrong? Nothing's wrong with my head? This is precisely Seventh Miss Zhang!"
