Mu Yexiao, who finally stopped coughing, stared at Qian Jiujiu. "Who are you?"

Qian Jiujiu blinked as she pondered on how to answer the man's question. Eventually, she decided to be truthful. Sooner or later, he would probably unearth her background even if she refused to reveal the truth now.

Nevertheless, Qian Yuge was the most beautiful lady in the Capital, and Qian Jiujiu definitely looked nothing like Qian Yuge.

Furthermore, it had been a few hours since Qian Jiujiu arrived at this place. Yet, she still had no idea how she looked.

What if l'm ugly? Perturbed by the thought, she studied her surroundings, trying to look for a mirror. When she finally found a copper mirror on the dressing table, Qian Jiujiu darted toward it.

She looked at her reflection, and immediately had an urge to kill herself.

Which fool put so much make-up on my face? Is this make-up free?

Subsequently, she began to knead her cheek, intending to remove the make-up on her face. However, she forgot how ridiculous she would appear in front of others.

Mu Yexiao, who was still lying on the bed, and the two guards were flabbergasted by her action. Where did this strange woman come from?

Mu Yexiao, he could not bear seeing this scene anymore, raised his voice and repeated his question. "Who are you?"

Qian Jiujiu paused in her action before she turned around to look as Mu Yexiao in an awkward posture.

"You are Lord Xiao, right? Hi! Oh, no. Your Highness, my name is Qian Jiujiu. I'm the love child of Minister Qian."

"Why am I here? I think we should have a tacit understanding on this, and hope that you can keep this to yourself after I tell you the truth."

The corner of Mu Yexiao's mouth twitched again. What's wrong with this woman? Why is she so confident?

Of course he had heard of Qian Jiujiu, the love child of Minister Qian. Has she always been this interesting?

He had heard about Qian Jiujiu since a long time ago. Yet, he paid little to no attention to this woman before, and her presence had definitely caught Mu Yexiao off guard.

"Why do you think that l'll keep your secret save?"

At that instant, Qian Jiujiu was no longer bothered by the make-up on her face. In fact, what left on her face was merely a layer of make-up foundation.

She brought a small stool and arrived before Mu Yexiao. She took a seat and proceeded to look Mu Yexiao in the eye.

She articulated each word with precision. "Because l'm your lucky bride, and l've already brought luck to you."

Mu Yexiao abruptly focused his gaze. "You can cure me of my crippled legs?"

He had consulted all the best doctors across the country, and none of them were optimistic about the outcomes of their treatments.

Therefore, Mu Yexiao was somewhat astonished by Qian Jiujiu's words.

Confidently, Qian Jiujiu nodded again. "Yes. Not only I can remove the poison in your body, but I can also cure your crippled legs."
