As soon as Gu Changsheng stepped out the back door of the medical hall, her whole body went limp.
Oh my dear mother, she was exhausted!
Pretending to be awesome, well, that definitely requires a thick skin, high self-regard, and the ability to withstand bolts from the blue—it's technically a skill.
Fortunately, she managed to bluff her way through, otherwise she really would've had no face to meet the elders of Jiangdong. Losing face all the way back to ancient times, that would've lost an awful lot of face, and she wanted none of that.
Standing at the door waiting for a while, Xiao Cui and Han Qiu finally followed her out.
As soon as Xiao Cui came out and saw Gu Changsheng, she started to clamor excitedly, rushing forward in two steps and grabbing a hold of Gu Changsheng's sleeve, "Lady Changsheng, you looked so majestic just now, now there's a complete mess inside."
