"Why did the carriage suddenly stop?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"Do you smell something?"
"Just now, was I mistaken, did I see smoke drifting in? Did you see it?"
Li Yue'e coughed a few more times, "It's so choking!"
"There is smoke coming in." Qu Jiaojiao curiously lifted the carriage curtain and looked outside.
There was no smoke outside.
Wang Meiyuan's eyes were full of hesitation, and her heart grew more uneasy, "I feel something is wrong, something is very wrong."
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Zheng Shuangshuang asked, puzzled.
It's just smoke drifting in from somewhere.
"Miss, the horse suddenly stopped by itself just now, but now it's fine, we can go." The coachman's voice came from outside the carriage.
"Okay." Wang Meiyuan responded.
There shouldn't be any trouble.
Yun Shu had just returned from abroad. Five years away from the capital was not enough to stir up any major trouble.
Moreover, Yun Yueyin was about to return!
Even if Yun Shu was not silly and wanted revenge, it would only be futile.
A moment later.
"Don't you guys feel particularly hot? Why do I feel so hot!" Xu Jiaojiao asked uncomfortably.
Her hands kept touching her face.
It was as if burning coals were roasting her face, making it hot and itchy.
Zheng Shuangshuang cried out in pain, "Ah! It hurts so much! My face hurts so much! It feels like it's been scalded by a red-hot iron!"
She scratched her face, hoping to relieve the heat.
Wang Meiyuan bit her lip fiercely, drawing blood, "My face is itchy too!"
In the end, she couldn't help but scratch her face.
The four of them felt a little more comfortable after scratching.
But as soon as they stopped scratching, the itch returned.
However, what was even more terrifying was not the burning, itchy, and painful sensation on their faces.
It was!
"Ah!"
"Your face!"
"How could this happen?!"
The next moment.
The carriage, which had been traveling normally on the street, suddenly stopped.
The moment it stopped.
The carriage suddenly split open!
It split into two halves.
The people inside the carriage were exposed to the public.
People came and went, with small vendors on both sides.
Seeing this scene suddenly, they were all stunned.
For a moment.
The surroundings became so quiet that not a single sound could be heard.
They were already surprised by how the carriage suddenly split open.
But what shocked them even more was!
"Who are they?!"
"Are they actors from a traveling opera troupe?!"
"This makeup is too ugly!"
"It doesn't look like it. Look at this carriage, even though it's split, it's very luxurious. It must be the young lady of some wealthy family, right?"
The sudden turn of events left Wang Meiyuan and the other three dumbfounded.
They looked around in shock.
Their heads were buzzing.
As if they had no idea what was happening around them!
They looked at each other.
Then, they could no longer hold back their screams.
"Ahhhhhhh!"
"How could this happen?"
Wang Meiyuan reacted quickly and covered her face.
Seeing her actions, the other four also covered their faces.
But just as they thought that by covering their faces, no one would recognize them.
From the crowd, someone exclaimed.
"Miss Wang? Miss Qu? Miss Li? Miss Zheng? Why are you here? Why did you do this to your faces?!"
A familiar voice.
A question that sounded like a death knell.
At the same time.
Someone suddenly realized, "Miss Wang? Could she be the legitimate daughter of Lord Wang, the Minister of Revenue? And that Miss Qu, is she..."
"Yes, it's them!"
Wang Meiyuan looked through her fingers and saw Yun Shu standing there.
