Xiao Qing tilted her head " hmmm, where should I start from. My mother was foreigner, she came from far away land .Coincidentally she she helped a countess Etuwart , later when she applied for a job the countess Etuwart recognize her and made her personal maid . Few months pass and everything was peaceful until count Etuwart took interest in my mother . My mother was beautiful and timid , well as you can see I inherited beauty from her but not personality, she couldn't complain about his harassing to anyone. He whispered sweet words to her and wait for her to fall in his trap . Mother and countess Etuwart were like friends , she didn't wanted to betrayed her but count Etuwart continue to pestering her . After countess gone to visit her mother and father . Count actions become more outrageous , he openly did everything. Rumors spread in mansion , everyone knew and they give mother unfriendly garles . She was ungrateful, the mistress takes her in and she secdued her husband "
Xiao Qing stop for a moment and continue .
" Mother like count , he was very kind to her , give her gifts and shower her with affection. She started to dream a future with him but count was just time passing with her . When countess come back everything return to normal but nothing was like before. My mother started to get morning sickness , when she heard she was pregnant with me . She was really happy and tell the count but count was not happy, he tells mother to abort the child. He tells Mother that there was no affection between them, he was just playing with her . Mother plead to him , she didn't wanted title or anything, she wanted to give birth the child . News reached to countess ears and she feels betrayed, she didn't show any mercy to her . She isolated her and after nine months like that ,I was bron because I was illegitimate child. They didn't treat me any different , mother give me anything I asked for , she do all chores . Mother health started to fall when I trun 10 years old , we didn't have money to buy medicine, in winter we didn't have firewoods and warm sheets or clothes. I take my mother place and work , count child bully me but I couldn't do anything thing but indiuor for my mother sake . Some pity me , give me extra food , our situation was not good. Mother heath continue to fall , she couldn't recover because we didn't have enough facilities. I beg but they trun deaf and ignore me . Sometimes I wanted to run away " but if I run away who will care of her " this thought keep me going .When I trun 16 , my mother passed away , the servants help me ceremate mother body . Not even three days pass and I hear count talking to someone , he was going to slod me to a rich old man. I didn't wait any longer, the only reason that bound me ,now was gone, I took advantage of night and run away.
Xiao Qing was looking at lake but she was not focused, she was in daze like she was looking at the past . She truns and look at Levi , her eyes become clean.
" Don't look at me like that, I'm not that weak"
Levi don't know what kind of expression, he was making but he certainly didn't pity her .
He knew she was not weak, he was more angry at those beasts. Those bastards they are going to pay for this. He clenched his fists .
Xioa Qing seem to feels his mood, she grin evily " Are you not going to hear most interesting part of this story "
Levi focus again and she continue " I face many threats but continue to work towards my goal , to become strong and rich . In four years I gather people , those whose situations were smailiar to me and train them . Just in four years I was powerful, rich and my influence was spread world wide. Just hearing my name army leaders knees goes weak , I returned and torture and kill them those who once bully me and my mother . After I got my revenge , I didn't stay there , I travel around the world, spread my name and gained more subordinates . I wanted to retired and wanted to do nothing and live in luxury but before retirement I got a mission, It was a mission to hunt a lion but when I saw that lion , I fall in love with him first sight .
Levi was stunned by how straight forward she was. Xiao Qing look at him with mischief grin on her face , Levi face was little flushed.
Xiao Qing look at Levi thoughtfully " I tell you my story . what about you, will you tell me your story. I like to hear more about you "
Don't she knows about me already . Does she truly want to know my side of story .
Xiao Qing looks very sincere . Levi cough and clear his throat "As you know I'm late queen son and first in the line of Thorne , some people may say queen mother die because of illness but it was emperor's mistress after my mother passed away she become concubine, she poison my mother and me . I was lucky because of arua but my mother was not strong enough, she didn't survived . Father was already in coma , all power was in her hand , she try to kill me openly. When I learn of truth due to shock and mental break down, I went berserker and kill everyone who was present there that day . I couldn't trust anyone,so I banished my uncle and In those times only William was on my side .
Xioa Qing wanted to say something but she heard horses running towards them and few moments later captain was in front of her with others knights. Shadow was kneeling in front of her , she hear captain praising them , they help them in everything .
Xioa Qing look at them and said " Good job , you can go back now "
Shadows look surprised , they couldn't believe that leader Parise them , they happily left .
They return to imperial palace without any incident happened , they were tried from traveling . After dinner they all return to their rooms , Xiao Qing fresh up , she sit on chair and said " come out "
A shadow come out , he hand over some documents and kneel in front of her . After reading xioa Qing face was expressionless, she said , give my message to Louis .
" speed up the plan, we don't have much time and I will paying them visit soon "
They gather some evidence against William but they were not enough to execute him . She wanted to tell Levi about William , she stop it was already very late , she decided to tell tomorrow , will he believe me , I hope he do .
The next day xioa Qing didn't get the opportunity to tell him . Everyone was very busy , there was so much work to do and Levi birthday was coming in three weeks. Work got double , secretary was on the edge of death . He look so haggard , he had aged ten years in these few past days .
Xioa Qing stand beside secretary , she point to sofa " You get some rest, I will do remaining paper work "
Secretary look at her like she was angel. He obediently got there and relax. Drink tea and
Eat cake . Xioa Qing look at him and chunkle, he is cute .
Levi was silently see their interaction , he was not pleased that Xiao Qing was paying attention to someone other than him but he knows the situation was tight , he keeped silence . After two hours xioa Qing wake up secretary , he set up immediately.
" Sorry, I doze off without realizing it " he adjust his glasses. .
" No , it's okay. I have already finished everything . "
Secretary didn't believe her , how can a knight done it , in two hours . He look at reports and his eyes widen , shock and surprised.He looks at every report , put everything down. He grabbed xioa Qing hands and shake excitedly " you're so cool , no mistakes and work like mountain done in two hours. Why don't you try to change jobs , you will get more salary than knights "
( Of course, no mistakes will be found little white help me done it and before transmission it was my job )
She smile " No , I'm happy with my job "
Crack...
A sound attract their attention, Levi snap his pen " don't bother her anymore "
Secretary nod immediately but before he go , he whispered to her " In the future, if you want to leave , you're always welcome to be my assistant "
Xiao Qing only nod her head .
Xiao Qing couldn't meet Levi alone , Levi was busy in the meeting , she decided to tell him in the nighttime, when no one can distribute them . Levi also sense xioa Qing uneasyness , he asked her ' Is everything okay ? ' she only nod her head in response.
Xioa Qing didn't touch her food, she was having bad feeling . She immediately stand up , goes to Levi room , she nock the door .
A voice come from inside " who is it "
There was something wrong with his voice, she nervously said " Wallas "
" Come in "
Xiao Qing enter the room, Levi was looking outside of window his back was facing her. A gloomy atmosphere was surrounding the room, xioa Qing got more nervous " Levi I want to tell you something "
But before she continues, Levi slammed documents on her face and said " before that you should explain this to me "
Xiao Qing couldn't understand Levi behavior , she collect the documents and read them . Her eyes widen in shock .
What the hell ?!!!
I didn't do anything like this !!!
