The courtyard Qiao Xiaomai lived in was right next to Bei Yun's Divine Doctor's Residence. The latter was a spacious, three-section compound, while her Mai Yuan was merely one section. However, small as it was, it had everything one might need—house and facilities included.
Qiao Xiaomai stood at the courtyard entrance, staring at the words "Mai Yuan" for quite some time. Then she rolled her eyes. The audacity—calling this shabby place "Mai Yuan." Her two Mai Yuan estates were way better, weren't they?
"Miss Qiao, are you satisfied?" Duan Tian asked from the side, sounding cautiously polite.
"Whatever." Qiao Xiaomai stepped into the courtyard. People were stationed all around, and there were at least twenty maids inside. Now, even if she grew wings, escape seemed impossible—fly too slow, and she'd be shot down by the Divine Crossbow.
