She softly said, "I guess this maid is afraid you would hold a grudge, and that's why she lied. She probably didn't do it on purpose."
Cao'er suddenly kowtowed and cried, "Please spare my life, Miss Chu! I didn't do it on purpose, I was just scared you would punish me."
"What are you doing? Stand up, I won't hold a grudge anymore." Chu Ziluo said very gently, while Nenya behind her reached out to pull Cao'er up.
Cao'er still wanted to kowtow, but now she didn't have the chance. She couldn't forcefully kneel down and continue, that would be too deliberate.
Liu Qingyuan, seeing that Chu Ziluo was truly taking this lightly, looked at her suspiciously.
Chu Ziluo smiled brightly, "I'm going to pick up Ms. Huo, Ms. Liu, feel free."
Chu Ziluo directly called Cao'er to take her to find Huo Hongyan.
