It was already lunch time. Shufen was waiting for Yaling to arrive. Bao told her that Yaling was already on her way. She was starving. After a few moments Yaling arrived with three maids. The two were holding trays with alot of food and the other one was a tray of tea. Shufen pouted at Yaling telling her that she was late.
"Don't treat me like a child" Yaling stuck her tongue out at Shufen. Making Shufen's mouth twitch. I'm the younger one but why do I feel like I'm the older one here? Ah, I forgot that I was reborn. Basically, my mental age is older than hers.
Shufen shooked her head. 'So I'm older than her?' Well, She's just three years older than me. It really doesn't matter. Now that she vowed to do everything to protect all the people that are important to her. Even if she will kill humans for the sake of their safety. Shufen's eye turned sharp and it has a strong killing intent. It was heavy and scary. A child could produce that kind of killing intent. But it disappears quickly as if it did not appear.
Yaling felt cold for some reason but it quickly disappears. Yaling stared at Shufen but shook her head. 'No, It's not her?' Yaling's eyes turned sharp. Looking at every corner of Shufen's room. But what Yaling didn't notice was Shufen was staring at her intently. Observing her every move, every emotion that appears on her face.
What would her reaction be if I told her that I was reborn? Would she believe me? Nah, It's likely impossible for her to believe me. It's just too impossible to be reborn.
Yaling made Bao and Xiu, her personal maid eat with them. At first, the two didn't want to because that act means they are disrespecting their master and they are not thinking about their status as a servant. But then they couldn't refuse Yaling. Who could? She was just too stubborn for her own good. And Yaling's stubbornness was the reason why she was in despair at that time. Trapped and couldn't get out. Only waiting for someone to arrive. In Shufen's past life, Yaling will experience too much pain that she changed.
They ate with happiness. Yaling, Bao, and Xiu were talking and Shufen was just listening, Eating peacefully. They laughed, snorted, and sometimes tease each other. Yaling stayed there until afternoon and left with Xiu who was smiling so wide. Yaling left to attend to her business in the main house. Her schedule was pretty tight as she was the Eldest daughter of the General. There was only one wife and that was Madam Ning, General Ning didn't take any concubine as he was loyal. At least he was loyal.
Loyal but did not even care for his own daughter. A good husband but a useless father to Shufen. General Ning was kind to Yaling but to her. He was the worst. Sighing, Shufen took the hairpin out of her hair making her long hair fall. Her black hair looks so soft and silky. She stared at the word WU in it. Who really are you? Is there any secret?
Her night was peaceful, she stayed on her balcony for a long time before sleeping. She felt comfortable and safe. She ate with Yaling again and left after eating together. Saying she had to get up early tomorrow. Shufen still didn't ask Yaling why she dissappeared for two weeks. Not like she will ask anyway, She doubts that Yaling will answer her. They are close but there is still a line between them.
Shufen opens her eyes with a slight smile. Bao entered her room with her breakfast and clothes. And prepare a bowl of water to wash her face. Bao helped Shefun to get up and sit in the chair to eat. Shufen told Bao to eat with her and Bao could only nod, knowing that Shufen will not stop if she won't sit. Her Miss changed but it doesn't mean that all of her behavior will change. Shufen didn't like eating alone.
When she was at this age in her past life, she didn't hate it but rather she just disliked it. She didn't like being alone when she was young. But now she could just eat alone but that would make her suspicious. Her change of behavior was already unnatural as it is.
"Mm, It tastes so good" Bao cherished the taste of the food because as a servant she can't eat the same food as her master, but she was given time. Shufen smiled at Bao's expression. Such a silly child.
"Here" Shufen gave her bowl to Bao and made her eat it. Her appetite wasn't great as she could still remember the past. Those men that touched her, she now hated a man's touch.
Bao wanted to refuse but she was just too damn hungry and she just dig in. Her breakfast was just two small pieces of bread and a cup of warm milk. The head maid was just too stingy, Head maid Tu was punished because of Shufen and she was the type of person that held a deep grudge. Even for a small matter, Head Maid Tu will find a way to make you feel miserable.
Head Maid Tu was just too evil. She didn't like being at the bottom. When she was alone together with the servants. She will make them do things that will make her happy, especially the beautiful young servants, And Bao was one of them.
Thinking about Head Maid Tu's punishment made Bao feel happy. Not that she was a sadist but she just want Head Maid Tu to feel what they felt when she will punish them without a reason. Shufen was staring at Bao who was smiling happily, Her mood was affected too and she was happy. Happy for Bao.
"Are you really happy that you ate that kind of food?" Shufen asked although it was obvious she wanted Bao to say it herself. Bao froze and stare at Shufen, Bao was shocked. Shufen was looking forward to her answer. Would she lie? or not?
"This servant like food. Please punish me for being a glutton" Bao stopped eating and stood up, Bao was about to kneel.
"Did I say I will punish you? sit down" Bao immediately sat down. Shufen lift her brow and made a gesture to Bao. 'EAT' Bao smiled widely and started eating. Ah, Bao is just too innocent. How could someone like that old man taint her!!
Let's see if could still go to heaven using that thing. I will make you feel the pleasure that you will beg me to stop and just kill you quickly. But I won't let you, death is just too simple for you. I'll make sure to make extra time to deal with you in the near future. Shufen smirked at her idea. He loved the pleasure then she will give him. Let him have his own medicine. For now, she could only focus on her health and her strength. She has to be strong. or else she could never face that person. She could still see that person clearly in her mind. Just wait!!
