Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 270 Fainting

As soon as Xiao Guo'er arrived at the Tang family, she was shocked by a sudden piece of news: Tang Jingchen's burial was in three days!

Isn't the usual custom to keep the body in state for seven days?

Why was Madam Tang in such a hurry and so hastily arranging her son's funeral?

There are only two days left... The original plan was to take advantage of this funeral. On the day of the funeral procession, many dignitaries would be present. At the time when there were the most people and the scene was the most chaotic, when everyone's attention would be drawn to the grand and solemn funeral procession, she would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

I thought I'd have six days to plan, but now I only have two...

Xiao Guo'er's gaze fell on the expensive coffin in the center of the mourning hall.

Two days later, the body will be buried underground with the coffin, and Jing Chen will disappear from this world... Even if the Eighth Prince has some suspicions, he cannot go against the world's opinion to dig the young master of the Tang family out of the ground.

With only two days left, how could she possibly come up with a solution and implement her idea in such a short time?

Shen Jing was also following behind her, keeping an eye on her!

Xiao Guo'er was restless and anxious, her mind filled with countless worries, and she couldn't find a solution.

Overwhelmed with hatred, she felt that if it weren't for the Eighth Prince's relentless pressure, she wouldn't be in such a state of distress, and Jingchen wouldn't have ended up in this predicament. So she gritted her teeth and cursed the Eighth Prince's ancestors over and over again in her heart.

It was truly an undeserved disaster. The more he thought about it, the more indignant he became. He was both angry and anxious, and his eyes reddened with grievance. Taking advantage of the atmosphere, he knelt down in front of the coffin and burst into tears.

While crying, she kept repeating, "What will I do without you? I'll be all alone and helpless..."

The sight of her was truly heartbreaking and devastating. The servants of the Tang family were all moved to tears, and they all felt sorry for their young master: that Miss Gu Huatong of the Gu family hadn't even shown her face, but this fairy-like figure who appeared out of nowhere was not only extremely beautiful, but also deeply in love with their young master and couldn't extricate herself from her feelings. It's just that the young master died so young. Heaven is truly blind!

Xiao Guo cried for a long time, which released most of the pent-up frustration in her heart, and she gradually calmed down.

Crying is very tiring, and she still has many things to do. If she continues to cry like this, she won't be able to do anything.

Little Guo'er's eyes, now bright with tears, darted around, then she closed them and fell to the ground in a position that didn't hurt too much.

I might as well pretend to be so heartbroken that I faint.

Shen Jing, who was standing ten steps away, rushed in when he saw this. He saw Xiao Guo'er lying unconscious on the ground and instinctively reached out his hands to help her up, but then withdrew them halfway. A look of struggle and difficulty appeared on his usually serious and tough face.

Now, Xiao Guo'er's identity is not simple... Is it presumptuous for a mere guard to help the prince's woman?

Fortunately, Madam Tang arrived at this moment and resolved Shen Jing's predicament.

Madam Tang had come to reprimand and drive away Xiao Guo'er, but she didn't expect to see Xiao Guo'er faint from crying as soon as she reached the entrance of the mourning hall.

"Go get a doctor."

He then ordered a maid to help Xiao Guo'er to the side hall.

Madam Tang's gaze followed Xiao Guo'er, who was being helped away, to the side hall. Her tightly furrowed brows suggested that she had encountered some difficult problem.
