Her hair was wet and draped over her shoulders. It was only two or three inches below her shoulders, but it was very straight. The layers of bangs developed to the sides in a layered manner, slowly growing longer until they blended into her hair. She was wearing a snow-white dress that matched her black hair. Droplets of water were still dripping from his white and pure face. He couldn't help but feel flustered, and the words " Fleur " appeared in his mind.
"I'm really sorry about just now. I'm not used to having people around me when I'm bathing, that's all.”
He lowered his head. No one to serve you, I was afraid of you…I thought…but now I know.”
She looked at him carefully again until she saw that he was also looking at her.
"Who exactly are you? I'm very curious, but if you don't want to tell me, then forget it. After all, it's all thanks to you this time. How about this, I'll give you your contract right now as my repayment to you. If you need anything else, just let me know."
He looked at her in disbelief.”
"Yes, I am. Is there a problem?"
He stood up again and stared at her as if he was looking at a monster. His heart was already racing. "You…are really different." he said.
She smiled and turned to leave. He quickly followed her and the two of them arrived at the woodshed.
Seeing their arrival, Liu Rong, who was tied up tightly, showed fear on his face.
"I think I've treated you well, but why are you doing this? Just for money? For the sake of money, could he give up his conscience and morals?”Xue Lin stared at Rong Liu.
Rong Liu knelt down and begged for mercy. Xue Lin continued,""I used to think that you were very capable. I originally wanted to hand this place over to you. Forget it, what's the point of saying this? I don't want to see you again. Leave!”
"Are you really willing to let me go?" Liu Rong looked at her in disbelief.
"Are you going to stay here and annoy me? Get lost!" Xue Lin pointed at the door and shouted.
Rong Liu never dreamed that she could get out alive. She ran out in a hurry, afraid that Xue Lin would change her mind and kill her.
"Miss, you can't let her go!" Yin Yicui said as she tugged at her sleeve. Seeing that she was hesitating, he quickly caught up to Liu Rong. With a palm strike, that person died.
Xue Lin clenched her fists and trembled slightly. This was the first time she had seen someone kill someone, and her heart was filled with fear. Seeing her trembling, Yin Yicui gently held her hand and said gently,""People like her deserve to die. After she goes out, she will ruin Miss's big plan, so I made my own decision. If you want to blame someone, blame me!”
She felt as if she had been drained of all her strength and fell into his arms.
After settling the newly bought slaves, Xue Lin led the young masters into the carriage and headed towards the Cloud Grace Palace.
The journey was rather peaceful. In addition, it was almost evening, and there were fewer pedestrians on the streets. Their two carriages did not receive much attention, and their journey was smooth.
After walking for nearly two hours, they finally arrived at their destination. Xue Lin got out of the car first and walked into the Cloud Palace under the guidance of others. There were many fake mountains, bamboo bushes, and flowing water. Beautiful women and men were in twos and threes, wearing luxurious clothes.
The person who led her was a quiet woman. She was not old, about thirty years old, and had a delicate appearance. She clapped her hands, and three girls came in to feel Xue Lin's body.
"I'm sorry, Boss Mu. This is just a routine check.”the woman said.
"It's alright. Chief Steward Wen, I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't be going to see the princess. Please pass on the message.”
"Sure." The woman nodded. Oh, I've already arranged the accommodation for those young masters. Boss Mu, you don't have to worry. They would have a bright future here. If they served well, they might even be able to get a concubine or something.”
"Yes, I am. Then I'll take my leave."
"Alright, please!" Chief Steward Wen gave a look to a palace maid beside him and the palace maid led Xue Lin out.
After they were far away, Chief Steward Wen asked,""Did you find anything?"
The two of them shook their heads. "Moreover, her bracelet is very ordinary. It can be sold everywhere on the street.”
She lay quietly on the chair, letting her black hair hang in the air. It would take some time for the newly bought slaves to get back on track, so Heavenly Earth closed its doors to all guests, and the surroundings became exceptionally quiet.
Now, she had to start all over again. In the past, she was still full of confidence, but after seeing the prosperity of the Cloud Grace Palace, she lost all confidence. How could she compare with her? She was a princess, the future heir to the throne. Money, people, power, power, beauty, and so on, none of them could compete with her!
It was so easy to think about killing Yun Niao, but how difficult it would be to do it!
"What's wrong, Miss?" Yin Yicui's voice suddenly rang out, almost giving her a fright.
She didn't get up and lazily maintained her original position as she asked,""You haven't left yet?"
"Didn't Miss say that I can renew my contract after paying off the debt? I'm still doing odd jobs now.”he said.
"A handyman?" She sat up." Isn't this a waste of talent? Your kung fu is so good that you even dared to assassinate the princess. Such a talent shouldn't stay in Heavenly Earth, right?”
"How did you know it was me?" Yin Yicui asked in surprise.”
"Of course I know. That night when the princess came to watch the performance, you naturally saw it, so you followed her all the way and attacked her. However, Lord Gong was the one who died. You couldn't bear to see me being wronged, so you dug a tunnel and sent Ye Ying to report. Am I right?"
"I want to kill Princess Yun Niao, and so does Miss. Isn't this perfect? We can join forces and become stronger, right?”
Xue Lin smiled and got up lazily. She put her feet on the chair and hugged her chest. Her black and smooth hair fell on her knees. "That's true," he said, his voice becoming lighter. Although we can't compare to her in anything, there's strength in numbers. Right, give the order to prepare for the show.”
"But they're already asleep.”
"Everyone, wake up. From now on, we'll all be night owls, working at night and sleeping during the day. I have to adjust my biological clock first."
Night owl? Biological clock? Why didn't he understand anything? Yin Yicui shook her head as she walked.
Although they had just experienced a great calamity, under Sun Lian's leadership, Heavenly Earth quickly regained its prosperity and order. The trees in the courtyard were lush, the flowers and plants were fragrant, and the lights were as bright as day.
Xue Lin tied her hair into a simple bun and her eyes darted around her long fringe. Sigh, she had grown so long, but she couldn't cut it. She didn't have the talent to be a hairstylist!
She casually brushed her bangs and casually grabbed a gauze dress to put on her body.
The table was filled with beautiful young men of different ages. When they saw Xue Lin, they all bowed their heads and greeted her quietly.
Xue Lin sat in the middle with a smile and gestured to Yicui Yin. The hall started to play the zither.
Looking at everyone, Xue Lin said," I'm sure you already know what you're going to do in the future. The Heavenly Earth has produced the best young masters. I'm sure you all know this. Just today, I just sent off a group of young masters to Princess Yun Liao. They will definitely be made concubines in the future. As for you, I hope that you will be able to surpass them, perhaps even surpass them. Therefore, they needed to put in more effort than they did. From today onwards, all of you must learn from Young Master Lian. You must learn seriously. You only have three days. I'll say this first. Those who study have to go through an assessment. Only those who pass can continue to study. Those who don't can only do other jobs. Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded and whispered,""Understood."
"Alright, let's begin, Xiao Lian."
Thus, Sun Lian raised her orchid fingers and the wine cup curled into his hand. He elegantly took a sip and gently placed it on the table.
Everyone quickly took the cups in front of them and drank the wine.
"Everyone, don't be so reserved. Tonight, treat it as a bar for work. Eat and drink well. Tomorrow, we will officially enter training.”Xue Lin finished her words and drank the wine in front of her.
Seeing this, the teenagers let go and drank happily.
It was night, the starry sky was bright, and the sound of the zither was lingering. In addition, it was not easy to get out of prison, so the extremely depressed mood slowly relaxed on this night. However, there were also side effects of relaxing. It was getting drunk and losing control of oneself after getting drunk.
Yes, Xue Lin was drunk. To be more precise, he was pretending to be drunk.
Because she wanted to test him. She had absolute trust in Sun Lian, but this Yin Yicui really made her uneasy.
She swayed and allowed Yin Yicui to help her back to her room. She took advantage of her drunkenness to touch his face here and there. He was not impatient. He carefully helped her to the bed, but she took the opportunity to wrap her arms around his neck.
" Don't go anymore…Sigh, my head…hurts…" Her hand slid down his neck softly and brushed past his chest, caressing it back and forth.
The place she touched was as hot as fire. He could not help but tense up. He grabbed her restless hand and said,"I'll get you a cup of tea.”
She pretended not to hear him and pulled his hand to rub her forehead, muttering,""It hurts…Rub it…"
She immediately let go of him, rolled inside, and " fell asleep " with her back facing him. She could clearly hear a sigh.
"Miss, Miss!" He shook her, and she pretended not to hear him. She pretended to be extremely sleepy and pulled the blanket over her head impatiently. Seeing that she didn't respond, he sat at the side for a long time, then sighed and quietly left.
