“Little girl, aren’t you young?”
Qinghu smiled at Lin Mengya. In his eyes, she was the loveliest girl in the world.
“Me?” She shook her head. Memories of her previous life arose in her mind.
To be honest, Lin Mengya failed to reconcile herself to the present life.
But what else could she do?
She was now not a doctor in modern times, but Princess Yu in an unknown era.
“What’s the matter with you? You look lazy recently.”
Qinghu narrowed his eyes at her.
It might have been his misperception, but in his eyes, this little girl looked quite haggard recently.
She seemed to lack energy as if she didn’t fully wake up every day.
“Perhaps because I’ve been too busy recently. I’ll be good in a few days. Dizziness in spring, and fatigue in autumn, don’t you know?”
Lin Mengya yawned slightly. She must have been sleeping poorly recently.
She often felt that she had brain fog. For her, maintaining decent sleep seemed to be important.
“Oh, Yunzhu told me that you chose the name Sanjue Hall, right?”
A sinister smile emerged on Qinghu’s face.
Lin Mengya nodded, but she saw through his smile that harbored evil designs.
“Could I—”
“No way!”
Lin Mengya glared at him and flatly refused.
Qinghu immediately had a miserable look on his face.
“I just want to help you!”
“You can only cause trouble!”
He needn’t say his real intention. Lin Mengya knew clearly that he wanted to be the honored son of Sanjue Hall.
If he became the test officer, he wouldn’t stop beating them until they were crippled.
She didn’t want her people to become victims of that unruly guy.
“I really want to help you. Just once, once, okay?”
Qinghu had no mania for Kungfu, but he still couldn’t help making every excuse to fight with Night who was at a similar level as him in Kungfu.
As time passed, Night would run away upon seeing him.
Baisu and Lin Zhongyu had good Kungfu. However, they would feel dwarfed in comparison with him.
Qinghu was bored now.
“Well, fine. I have to do some legwork if you won’t allow it. Do you remember that small courtyard where Hu Lunan kidnapped you?” he picked up his tea cup and lightly asked.
Lin Mengya nodded. That place gave her a profound impression.
“I’ve bought it. You can deal with affairs involving wanderers there.”
“That courtyard in the countryside?” Lin Mengya thought about it for a second and concluded that it was a good place.
“Thank you. Well done! Drink some more tea.”
She smiled at Qinghu. She knew already that Qinghu was exactly the richest person. He always did what he wanted though.
Noticing that the little girl in front of him started to flatter him at once, Qinghu stared blankly and murmured, “They call me the fox with thousands of faces. But the little girl changed her expression quicker than me.”
“What did you say?” Lin Mengya curiously asked. Instantly, Qinghu cracked an innocent smile.
“Nothing. I said nothing!”
Then, he forcefully blinked his eyes at her.
Lin Mengya glanced at that temperamental fox and stopped talking to him.
On the street, the four maids went shopping as excited as birds, quickly attracting the attention of many passersby.
However, Lin Zhongyu with a serious expression, unconsciously created an atmosphere to get out of his way, scaring many rogues to step back.
The four maids were each uniquely delicate and pretty.
Soon after, many eyes were cast on them from all directions.
“Someone is watching us. You’d better hurry up. Then, we’ll go to where sister is.”
Lin Zhongyu urged in a low voice, his eyes unconsciously thrown to somewhere in the tea house next to them.
He wanted to stay with his sister, but the three maids were sister’s closest people.
If he didn’t protect them, sister would have to.
“Okay, Childe Yu. After a while, we will go back.”
Baiji was relaxed but had not lost her head.
She grabbed Baizhi’s arm, who had lost her head in a moment of excitement. Other maids quieted down as well.
“Young Master, more people have appeared around us suddenly.”
Baisu was as alert as Lin Zhongyu.
She looked around calmly and observantly. All of a sudden, no one noticed that more unknown people were getting closer to them.
It was strange that they surrounded them, intentionally or not.
“Be careful not to trust foreigners. Let’s move to the tea house.”
Lin Zhongyu looked around sharply. Baisu put her hand on the flexible sword on her waist as well.
“Young Master, should we send the signal or not?”
Lin Zhongyu’s people were hiding somewhere around to keep them safe.
Upon seeing a signal, they would rush out to help them.
“No. They will not be bold enough to kill people in public.”
Lin Zhongyu, with a cold face, made two gestures toward Qinghu in the tea house.
But on this occasion, it was inconvenient for Qinghu to do them a favor.
It was crowded there. Once he was recognized, he might have to live a tough life.
“Let’s be careful. Go on.”
Baisu nodded. Both of them protected the three maids, with one at the front and the other in the back.
They slowly moved in the direction of the tea house. Someone must have seen through their intention.
Dozens of strong guys leered at them.
“Well, where does this young master come from? His maids are so beautiful. How lucky he is.”
A figure in brown satin popped up in the center of those strong guys.
He was tall and strong, but looked obscene.
Lin Zhongyu refused to give an answer, and just glared at him.
Baiji, Baishao, and Baizhi, who knew little about Kungfu, stood behind Lin Zhongyu.
No one had dared to treat them like this since they became the princess’s maids.
“Get lost!” Baisu shouted and glowered at the guy.
“Such a tough girl. I like you!”
Different from common women, Baisu had seemed cold since she was born.
That man licked his lips like a lecher, and his eyes on Baisu became dirtier.
“You may have no life to enjoy it!”
Baisu held onto the flexible sword on her waist. She planned to kill him once he said something dirty.
But, that man misunderstood her behavior.
His bean-sized eyes glanced sidelong at her hands on her waist.
“You are going to undress yourself? Let’s take it slowly, my beauty.”
“You’re playing with fire!”
A short sharp sound came as she pulled out her flexible sword.
Her face had a cold look. In the blink of an eye, her flexible sword appeared on that man’s neck.
“Hey! How dare you! Do you know who I am?”
Although there was a sword on his neck, that guy didn’t feel panic. Instead, he yelled.
“Bitch! Let go of Master Du! Listen, we are the Willow Gang. You and your family may have a disaster if you irritate us.”
“Willow Gang?” Lin Zhongyu’s pupils contracted.
He was abducted exactly by the Willow Gang before sister had saved him.
They treated him worse than pigs or dogs.
A cold, cruel smile appeared on his lips.
“They are asking for trouble and playing dice with death.”
Finally, the time for revenge had arrived.
“Kill him, Baisu!”
Cold, emotionless.
Willow Gang, Poplar Hall, whatever… That man had to accept his fate since he encountered Lin Zhongyu today.
Baisu pulled out her sword without any hesitation.
In a moment, it drew a stream of fresh blood.
The other strong guys were stunned.
“Heavens! In the Capital City, someone really dares to kill people in the Willow Gang.”
They immediately stepped back over and over again.
They tried their best to avoid Baisu’s sword and becoming the sacrifice to her sword.
“You… you’ve gotten into trouble! Our big brother will not spare you.”
“Not spare who? How bold the Willow Gang is. You must have learned a little from that lesson last time!”
Suddenly, a tender voice arose. Those strong guys turned their head immediately, shivering.
An exceedingly beautiful lady walked toward them with slow steps.
Her eyebrows were like a black-and-white picture, delicate and pretty.
But they all felt an unfathomable coldness.
Some words of their big brother arose in their minds instantly.
In the Capital City, they could fight with anyone, other than the Princess Yu. They had to run away as far as possible if they encountered her.
It was said that Princess Yu was a beautiful young lady.
It was said that she saved a boy’s life from dozens of their brothers.
It was said that she killed people without blinking her eyes.
The woman in front of them was beautiful and had a boy beside her. She had to be Princess Yu.
Did she—
“Who are you! It’s none of your business!”
A man ventured to shout fiercely. He thought he was lucky enough. He didn’t believe she was Princess Yu.
Lin Mengya just smiled and said, “I’ll take some lives here. But I will also choose someone to keep alive in order to tell your brother. Princess Yu will wait for him if he wants to get revenge.”
Sure enough! She was really the dreadful Princess Yu!
At once, some were scared away.
It was said that Princess Yu was really brutal.
They acted like tyrants. They still couldn’t imagine how brutal such a weak beauty would be.
“I haven’t been scared of anyone since I was born. Listen—Ah—”
The man standing closest to her found that his tongue had fallen to the ground before he had finished his words.
“More?”
Blood trickled down his steel-gray clothes.
Because she acted so quickly, that man had lost his tongue half before he felt pain.
He stared at Lin Mengya, it was rather hard to swallow the fact.
“Such a brutal woman!”
