Chapter 628: Chapter 628, Get to the Point (1st Update)
Thinking of this possibility, Duobao turned his head to look at Xie Zhinuan again.
He didn’t quite understand won, since he had never really co into contact with them.
It wasn’t that no won had thrown themselves at him, sending him secret admiring glances, it was just that he had always ignored them.
Won, many a ti, represented trouble, often crying, shedding tears, or threatening to commit suicide.
When he first t Xie Zhinuan, she was as he had known other won to be, soft and fragile; he had much disdain for her.
Because of this disdain, there was a lack of respect.
Even when he failed to complete his tasks well and was assigned to serve at Xie Zhinuan’s side, he still did not take her seriously, until yesterday, when he was defeated in three moves and had a sword pointed at his throat…
It was only when Xie Zhinuan questioned him about the whereabouts of the dicine pill did he co to a sudden realization of so matters and understood that his master wanted him to co back and perform well, in the hope that Xie Zhinuan would give him sothing—a thing that would greatly benefit whover received it.
Originally, there should have been a share for him, but it was his own doing which led him to forfeit it.
At this mont, Duobao’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Several tis he turned to look at Xie Zhinuan.
The last ti he t Xie Zhinuan’s gaze.
“Why are you staring at ? Is there sothing dirty on my face?” Xie Zhinuan asked.
“No, I am just a bit curious, what are your thoughts toward my master?”
“What thoughts?” Xie Zhinuan countered, and quickly understanding, she laughed lightly and straightened up, “Duobao, do you think I, being pretty, am so kind of seductress or demoness who, seeing your master’s noble status and handso looks like that of a Banished Immortal, shalessly throws myself at him? Or perhaps I annoyingly beg him to keep by his side, or shafully climb into his bed, seeking a mont of favor, and thus latch onto him for a superior life?”
Xie Zhinuan sighed, “Duobao, the won you’ve co across before are mostly like that, so I don’t bla you for looking at with prejudice, but today I must defend myself. First of all, it was your master who calculated against first. If it weren’t for his and Yuanbao’s clandestine plotting, there wouldn’t have been so many unpleasant incidents with the Yuan Family, casting aside the life-saving grace. Even though the mbers of the Yuan Family are despicable, it’s true that the old master and grandma saved . When the old master carried back ho, I was truly at my last breath. It was only because I chanced upon an opportunity that I survived!”
“But because of those botherso matters, I cut off all ties with the Yuan Family, with no gratitude or righteousness left, strangers henceforth. Many people would say the Yuan Family lacked benevolence and repaid kindness with grudges, but am I not also ungrateful in their eyes?”
“It was he who wanted to be able to eat normally, showed up before , and built a house opposite mine. He assigned Grandma Chen, Aunt Chen, and the dim-witted girl to lurk around . Because I added sothing into the well water, drinking it had certain effects. Taking advantage of my trip to the city, they drained the well and refilled it with fresh water. I said nothing; Yuanbao stealing lons and oranges from my backyard, I let go, because I never took these trifles to heart!”
“Going to Fengping County to do business, I certainly bluffed using your master’s status to get the business going, but Duobao, you should understand better than anyone, that my opening of the shop, buying the manor, hiring people, it was all my own decision. Your master never interfered. The silver I borrowed from him has been returned in full!”
“Moreover, not all won in this world, upon seeing your master, would want to cling to him and love him to death. And that person is ; from the start to the finish, I have not harbored any feelings of affection, any romantic interest, for Li Hengyi.”
Xie Zhinuan’s voice was very light, yet it struck at Duobao’s heart, causing him an inexplicable sense of panic.
