Chapter 7 - mu manor

As the carriage was slowly approching the mu manor, our lily aka lord mu rui was sitting quitely. All this time she never smiled warmly. Her smiles were more like fakes. Soon the carriage reached the mu manor. Lily glanced at the night prince who was leaning on his one hand and said " Silver hairs i am off. Thanks for your hospitality."

Night prince didnt said anything in reply. Lily got off the carriage and gave a rub to the horses . Soon the carriage disappeared. Lily was standing in front of a huge mu manor. Two guards were standing in front. As lily has no memories plus no money she decided to better come back to original body owner's house.

Standing in front of the house,she has just one thinking ' One more family to encounter hah'

As the guard saw the lady in front of them, they recognized her and were a bit shocked. All the manor knows that lord mu rui is dead . But they never find the corpse so they cant make it a fact. Its been two years since she was declared to be lost . The guard were in daze but still respectfully bowed and opened the door. As she got inside she nodded towards the guards and went inside. In front of her was many servants doing their own chores. One of the servant noticed the lady and upon seeing her face the water basin dropped from her hands. she suddenly shouted " lord mu .."

Everyone looked towards the lady dressed in white. she was quite a beauty. One of the servant rushed inside. And in a couple of minutes several footsteps rushing forward could be heard.

Infact lily has no idea whats happening. She just waited for the people to arrive. Soon a man in his 40's with a villanous face came out and behind him was a tensed looking middle aged woman. Then came a beauty dressed in pink. She was looking terrified.

Lily noticed everybody's face and she cant help but sigh. As she can real people easily from their face ,so it was quite obvious she can see that ' the so called family doesnt exist'.

Soon the middle aged man said " Mu rui do you have any shame? How can you return home after fleeing away?Dont you have any conscince?"

Before lily could so anything the beautiful girl in pink said " Are you really mu rui? If you are a impersator i will make sure to kill you 1000 times."

lily didnt speaked anything and turned towards a servant and asked " Lead me to my room."

The servant just kept her head dropped and didnt said even a word. Soon lily frowned and looked towards the middle aged man and said " Did you forgot who is the lord?"

The middle aged man didnt knew what to answer. As mu rui never raised her voice against him. Even though she is the lord but whole manor was already under him and in a few days his daughter mu runyun would have taken this position.

As the middle aged man was still in his thoughts a man dressed in navy blue with his long violet hairs tied with a simple light blue ribbon came out. He has an aura of playfullness around him. He came forward and kneeled in front of lily and said " Its been a long time lord mu rui."

Lily stared at his small smirk on his face. She replied " Lead the way."

The man with purple hairs led the way towards her chambers. On his way he glanced at lily several times. Soon they reached a little courtyard which could be barely called a courtyard.

lily sighed and mumbeled " pitful. damm it."

The purple hair guy looked towards her with a smile. Lily asked him " Whats your name? And what are you to me?"

The guy smiled and replied " No name and i seem to be a subordiante of yours and sometimes a servant."

The guy seemed not to question her about her wierd behaviours. As she cant trust anyone but anyway she wont be here for a long time. So she decided to better use him than to be worried about trust. She then said " Follow me inside."

The guy narrrowed his eyes and replied " How can i enter a maiden' s chamber."

Lily laughed. she thought that he is a playboy image type guy. she then looked back at him and said " From now on you can. This is ur lords orders."

The guy was a little bit confused but still followed her inside. Inside it was a small bed and a little dressing table. Just one room one bathroom courtyard. It was quite ironic. she then asked " Where do you live?"

The guy replied" I came here recently. I have given quite a good courtyard near to that mu runyun."

Lily didnt replied anything. she just sat on her bed. Then she patted beside her and said " come sit."

The guy did as she said.

Then lily looked towards him and said " I am giving you 3 choices. Choose it carefully.

little rice

violet guy

shina

Pick one name and that shall be yours."

The guy's mouth twitched upon hearing such a disaster names. He then decided to eliminate the 2 on top completely. He calmly said " Shina"

" okay shina , tell me about here. "

Shina had a confused face still he replied " The man lord saw was ur uncle named mu ling and the woman beside him was his was his main wife Ru jian and the lady in pink was their daughter mu runyun. This house is of your dad's gift before he left you. He made you the lord and left you one day 10 years back. your mother's location are unknown. Nobody ever saw her."

Then he asked with a smirk " Did lord forgot everything?"

Then lily glanced at him and said " Maybe or maybe not."

shina frowned and replied " So its uncertain."

lily replied " Hmmm"

Then she just leaned in her bed. Her legs were still hanging . Shina was a little taken back by lady's such an attitutude. Anyway he is a male. And they met today only if she has forgotten .

Lily then said " Shina why my servant and a half subordinate is having better courtyard than me? If i am correct then from your looks and ur behaviour you cant be a mere servant. The household doesnt knows that you are my subordinate. And by treatement given to you ,you must be someone well off. so why are you here?"

Shina was taken back by this question. He didnt thought she will notice this soon. He said " From now i have to be your servant and a subordiante too. For reasons i may be not able to explain it."

Lily didnt dwelled much on this matter. She doesnt need trust for now. She just wants someone to help her understand everything about the body's and this world clearly. So she was fine. She smiled and said " I need to bath."

Shina then replied " sorry lord i will take my leave then. "

Lily then angrily shouted " Shina"

" This lord needs water. It seems I dont have servants and any authority. So ho feth water for this lord."

Shina wants to cry now really. He never thought his first orders will be to fetch water. But he have to do it. so he went and fetched water. As he was fetching water ,lily was searching her clothers. she did find a pair of peach coloured clothes which seems rather good exccept the rest. Then she needed pyjamas so she found white ancient pyjamas. She kept the clothes on bed as shina filled the bucket of water. After shina left lily walked towards the bath.

She socked herself in the bath tub like thing and clossed her eyes . ' Finally i am alone. From the time i opened my eyes i was surrounded by peoples. To think that i got a second chance , its really suspicious. I killed my family , did god pity me for my love for them and their betrayal. ' She then saw her hands and said " It seems i killed my parents by stabbing in heart thats why this body has no heart beat. Was it really me that was evil."
