Chapter 1126: Chapter 1126: Arrogant Eunuch

​However, before he could even manage to utter another word, Bai Xifeng moved like a flash of lightning and grabbed him. ​She effortlessly seized the eunuch by his front collar and lifted his entire body completely off the ground with one hand.

"Ah—! What are you doing?!" The eunuch immediately began flailing his arms and legs in utter panic.

"Who the hell do you think you are? Coming into my household and reprimanding me like you own the place? Huh?" Bai Xifeng asked, her voice dangerously calm.

​She casually shook the eunuch like a ragdoll while holding onto his clothes, causing his limbs to sway helplessly in the air.

​The eunuch’s face instantly drained of all color, turning a ghostly shade of pale. ​He had never in his wild dreams expected Bai Xifeng to react so violently and disregard his royal authority!

​"Young Lady Bai... Please... Put... put me down..." The eunuch choked out, struggling to breathe.

​The eunuch felt as though his throat was being crushed by an iron vise. In his desperation, he frantically tried to signal Xiao Li, who was standing quietly just behind Bai Xifeng. ​However, Xiao Li simply turned a completely blind eye to his desperate glances, gazing up at the ceiling instead.

​Having served Bai Xifeng for years, Xiao Li had long since learned an invaluable life lesson. Whenever someone was stupid enough to provoke her young miss, it was always best to step back and stay out of the crossfire.

​Besides, this arrogant eunuch was the one who had started running his mouth first. Why on earth should she bother helping him?

​Seeing that the eunuch’s eyes were rolling back and he was on the verge of passing out, Bai Xifeng casually tossed him aside. ​The eunuch crashed heavily onto the hard wooden floor with a painful thud.

​"Cough! Cough! Cough!" The eunuch immediately clutched his throat, coughing violently as precious air finally rushed back into his lungs.

​He pressed a trembling hand against his chest, gasping heavily for several moments before he could finally regain his composure. ​After recovering his breath, he slowly, fearfully looked up at the young girl standing above him. ​For a brief second, he was stunned by how strikingly beautiful she was. However, that momentary admiration vanished instantly.

​The absolute second his gaze met her eyes, a sharp chill ran down his spine. ​The girl was staring down at him with cold, terrifying indifference. ​There was not a single trace of fear or anxiety in her gaze. ​There was not even a sliver of respect reserved for him or the high-and-mighty Royal Family he represented. ​Instead, her expression held only raw, unadulterated impatience.

​"What are you doing just sitting on the floor like an idiot?" Bai Xifeng asked dryly.

​"Y-Yes... Yes at once!" The eunuch was now thoroughly terrified of Bai Xifeng. He scrambled up from the ground like a frightened dog and quickly dusted off his messed-up robes.

​Bai Xifeng scoffed loudly as she watched his pathetic display. ​She didn’t bother wasting another breath on him. ​She simply turned on her heel and strode casually toward the main entrance, with Xiao Li quietly following a step behind her.

​As they walked out into the courtyard, Bai Xifeng suddenly paused and glanced around the quiet estate.

​"Xiao Li, where did all my friends go?" Bai Xifeng asked.

​"Your friends decided to head out early this morning. They mentioned wanting to explore the market and look around the Capital." Xiao Li stated politely.

​"Oh... Alright then," Bai Xifeng nodded, unbothered.

​She did not really mind them wandering off on their own. They had been traveling together for days, so it was completely natural for them to want to stretch their legs and check out the lively Capital City on their own time.

​"Let’s just go meet the Royal Family and get this damn annoyance over with." Bai Xifeng muttered with a heavy sigh.

​The eunuch, who was walking a short distance behind them nervously, widened his eyes in absolute shock when he heard the completely vulgar, dismissive way Bai Xifeng spoke about the revered Imperial Court.

’​This girl... ​Is she genuinely not afraid of the Royal Family at all?! ​Does she truly believe that just because she is the biological daughter of Great General Bai, she has immunity and does not need to show even an ounce of fear or respect to His Imperial Majesty?!’ ​The eunuch lowered his head, carefully hiding the dark, twisted expression creeping onto his face.

​A sinister, venomous grin slowly curled across his pale lips. ​He could not wait to see whether this arrogant, rude young miss could still maintain such a fearless attitude once she was brought face-to-face with the supreme ruler of the land. ​He wanted to see if she would still dare to speak about the Royal Family in such a treasonous, disrespectful manner when she was forced to kneel before the Emperor himself!

’Just you wait, you arrogant brat!’ ​The eunuch secretly sneered in his heart, his eyes flashing with malicious intent.

​He was already eagerly anticipating the look of absolute despair on Bai Xifeng’s face when she finally realised that the Royal Household was not an entity a mere young girl could casually disrespect and provoke!

​Bai Xifeng did not waste a single second worrying about what this miserable eunuch might be thinking about her. She was far more concerned with whatever scheme the Royal Family, and the Emperor in particular, was plotting by summoning her so unexpectedly.

​When they stepped out through the main gates of the Great General Bai Residence, however, the street outside was completely empty. There was no carriage waiting for her anywhere in sight.
