"Yes, Princess." A group of Guards took the order and hurriedly chased after the escapee.
Ouyang Leyuan looked down at the back of her hand. Her fair, jade-like skin clearly bore three scratch marks.
"I graced you by favoring you, and you, just like your Master, don't appreciate the honor."
Xuetuan realized it was being pursued and knew that the wicked woman was up to no good by trying to catch it. Instinctively, it ran towards Xiao Jinyan, and in a short while, it had vanished without a trace.
Four Guards searched everywhere in the yard and by the waterside pavilion for Xuetuan, but they couldn't find any sign of it.
Ouyang Leyuan, furious and frustrated, ran out of the house only to find the Guards empty-handed and without a trace of Xuetuan.
"A bunch of useless fools, what's the point of keeping you?"
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and find it for me!"
