Suiâer didnât say a word, considering that she didnât believe Chu Qingchuan would become a good person anyway. If a personâs true nature could change so easily, then good and evil wouldnât exist in this world.
Suiâer walked directly towards the thick book of house rules and picked it up. She flipped to the page Chu Qingchuan left off yesterday, then put it in front of her. âConcubine Ninety-Nine, stop thinking about it. Itâs not like youâre going to come up with a good idea anyway. Youâre better off learning the house rules,â she said in an attempt to persuade her.
Chu Qingchuan saw the book and deliberately yawned. âIâm sleepy. I want to read it when I wake up.â
Then, she got to her feet and staggered over to the big bed behind the screen.
Suiâer closed the book of house rules without a care. As a maid, all she had to do was do the best to her ability. Caring too much would, in turn, annoy others.
Chu Qingchuan put her hand to her mouth and let out a soft yawn. Then, she laid on the big, plush bed, shut her eyes and fell asleep.
I donât care anymore. Letâs talk about it after I wake up.
Chu Qingchuan was very simple-minded. She wasnât going to have any dreams or anything, and her nap would last almost two hours.
After she woke up, Chu Qingchuan freshened up, then headed out for a stroll outside the tower with Suiâer by her side. Who knows, perhaps Iâll discover another way out of here.
With a smile on her face, Chu Qingchuan walked down a shady passageway whilst admiring the charming scenery. She had long put the idea of finding a way out to the back of her mind.
Suiâer silently followed behind Chu Qingchuan and let out a subtle sigh whilst looking at the naive look on her face. This ladyâs naivety would get her killed sooner or later.
Chu Qingchuan turned her head and suddenly saw that she was about to cross paths with three men. The man in the front was clearly the master of the castle. Behind him were his two men.
The master wore a blight blue attire with embroidered dark blue flowers. His hair was tied high up and fell on his body like a waterfall. He wore a gold mask over his lips with light blue flowers on it. His charming aura made him stand out exponentially.
Chu Qingchuan felt like she had terrible luck. How did she end up bumping into that ugly Master on the road? Although the Masterâs chin and lips looked really good, he must be unbelievably ugly.
She didnât want to bump into that ugly Master, and so she was just about to spin around and leave.
But then, Suiâer whispered, âConcubine Ninety-Nine, whatever you do, donât turn around. The Masterâs looking at you. If you deliberately avoid him, then wouldnât that make him think you have a problem with him? Whoâs to say he wonât kill you.â
Chu Qingchuan heard what Suiâer said and knew exactly what she meant. After some thought, she felt like she made a lot of sense, so she gulped and whispered, âSuiâer, youâre so clever.â
Suiâer twitched the corner of her mouth, speechless. Concubine Ninety-Nine, youâre just too stupid, alright?
Soon enough Yu Wuxia walked up to Chu Wingchuan.
Chu Qingchuan leaned against the wall, then curtsied. âGreetings Master.â
Yu Wuxia smiled flirtatiously. âRise. I still donât know your name. Tell me your name.â
Chu Qingchuan slightly furrowed her elegant eyebrows and thought about it for a second before she replied, âIâm... Chu... Chu...â
Yu Wuxia smiled joyfully. âSo your name is Chuchu. A good name. It sounds very charming and you are indeed beautiful.â
Chu Qingchuan didnât have the slightest good feeling about Yu Wuxia. She kept her head slightly lowered and didnât move an inch, hoping that he would quickly leave.
Yu Wuxia glanced at Chu Qingchuan and knew what she was thinking. He wasnât angry, but smiled and said, âDo want me to quickly leave that badly?â
