HRPM – Chapter 15 A Terrible First Encounter (3)

Hongye stared, dumbfounded, at the pitch-black figure in front of her—like someone who had just been pulled out of an ink vat.

If she hadn’t spoken, she would never have recognized her as Miss.

“It’s nothing. The explosives experiment failed—I got smoked like this. Pretty trendy, right? This look.”

Jin Luoluo spun proudly and struck a model-like pose.

Lüya and Hongye were both stunned speechless.

It was impressive that Miss could still entertain herself at a time like this. The fact she hadn’t been blown to death was already a miracle.

“Miss, I surrender to you. The master told you to hurry to the main hall. Go tidy yourself up first,” Hongye said, stomping her foot.

With Miss’s current terrifying appearance, it would probably take at least half an hour to make her look presentable.

How could the princes possibly wait that long?

“Didn’t I say not to disturb me when I’m doing experiments? That old man really treats my words like the wind. Forget it—it’s just our own people anyway, what’s there to fuss about? I’m going.”

Jin Luoluo quickly disappeared beyond the moon gate.

Xiao Che, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yu stood side by side in the Jin residence’s flower hall.

The glittering-with-wealth Master Jin Gungun stood there, rubbing his hands together and smiling obsequiously.

“Your Highnesses, would you like to sit down and have some fine tea? Our household has quite a collection of premium teas.”

“No thanks. If I sit down, I’m afraid I might turn into a gold nugget myself,” Xiao Yu said, shuddering as he looked at the dazzling golden chairs.

If he actually sat on one, would he turn into a golden statue?

This Jin household was literally shining with gold everywhere.

The furniture, porcelain, tables, and chairs—if they weren’t made entirely of gold, they were gold-plated, or at least inlaid with gold. Even the yellow drapes were embroidered with golden threads.

That alone would be one thing—but why did even the people look like they were glowing?

Just look at the plump Jin Gungun.

All ten of his fingers were covered with gold rings and jade thumb rings. He wore a yellow silk robe with dark gold patterns, and a gold-and-jade belt around his waist.

Even the small cap on his head had a gold “fortune” character hanging from it.

It was one thing for him to be covered in gold—but why did he reveal a row of gold teeth every time he smiled…

Heavens, this gold-toothed fatty was unbearable.

For the first time in his life, Xiao Yu felt such intense dislike toward gold.

A rogue isn’t scary—what’s truly scary is someone without taste.
