Bai Lisa couldn’t care less about what other people thought. She hurriedly dressed up and asked Ye-mama, “Mama, do you think it would be good if I gave this to the prince personally?”

“Of course it would! I’ll tell you what, if the prince doesn’t have any matters to attend to today, he should be in Fragrant Garden!”

Ye-mama dearly hoped that Madame Lisa could complete the task by herself. At the very least, Madame Lisa’s appearance as she laughed merrily was extremely seductive, to say nothing of anything else. What man could withstand it?!

Lisa was overjoyed. She couldn’t let this chance go. She had to make the supporting male lead remember her.

She clenched her fist inwardly, then went to prepare the gifts she had already put together. She could no longer bother with underhanded secret dealings.

Anyways, the supporting male lead wasn’t so mean as to speak of this matter. The story had already explained his personality in detail, so she wasn’t afraid. As they say, don’t bite off more than you can chew, but remember that fortune favors the bold. If she continued like this, she wouldn’t be able to attract a second glance from the supporting male lead, let alone save herself from certain death.

She had already prepared this gift for quite some time, but hadn’t gotten the chance to present it. Her gift was also placed in a small cloth bag, but it was quite different from a perfume satchel. When she was ready, she brought Xiao Shi out with her.

From Ye-mama’s point of view, Lisa even looked somewhat heroic as she stepped out.

Lisa had always been a bit passive. A male classmate had chased her for quite a while in her middle school days, but she still hadn’t figured out his motives even when she’d reached senior high. When she finally found out, he had already married and had kids. With her personality, she was only doing such a thing after arriving in the ancient times because of her fear of being beaten to death.

The scenery in the prince’s complex had become even more beautiful. Although the trees were starting to wither into a golden yellow, one could find a certain beauty to the desolate landscape. But at present, Lisa couldn’t appreciate the scenery. Relying on Xiao Shi for guidance, she made her way to Fragrant Garden, her heart a knot of anxiety.

Although Prince Jeon was a general, he was also quite well read, with rather elegant tastes. This Fragrant Garden was situated above a man-made lake with fountains and strangely shaped rock formations.

It looked extremely grand, imbued with an ancient and grand sort of beauty. The couplets by the entrance were written with bold calligraphy that soared like dragons and danced like phoenixes, extremely pleasant to the eye.

She secretly admired the male lead’s vision. He was the male lead after all, other than having a liking for murder, he still had quite a few good points to him.

The pageboy standing outside stopped them, “Madame Lisa, may I ask what business you have here?”

“This concubine has some matters and would like to see the prince. Does he perhaps have some time?” This was the modern way of speaking. She didn’t know how she was supposed to ask to meet a man in ancient times.

The pageboy was startled. This Madame  is quite direct.

He knew that the prince held more interest towards her than the other three mistresses, so he respectfully replied, “Please wait here for a moment, Mistress Lisa. This servant will go and inquire with the prince.” He turned and left.
