Jinxing had a very strange look on her face. She cursed Elder Miss Gu inside her heart, but realized that she needed to have a good response for her master regarding why the guest was not here with her.
She looked up at First Ms. Min and forced out some words. "First Ms. Min, Elder Miss Gu says that she is not feeling well, so she has turned down our invitation. She doesn't want us to get affected by the cold. We are all noble people, and she can't afford to make us sick too."
Jinxing added some words to her speech, because she wanted to make the whole thing look better. There was no difference between the original meaning and what she said, but it was a way that she could make the whole failed mission look better.
First Ms. Min frowned slightly - Elder Miss Gu looked well the day before, and it was summer so it was hot and warm during the day and at night, how did she suddenly get sick? Was she really trying to stay away from her?
