Because Ye Mu's family was poor.

They have never had a fixed place to live.

Gu Changqing let them stay at the academy.

Zhao Zhuzi also took on the roles of cooking and odd jobs at the academy.

School is over now.

Those wealthy young men and teachers have all left.

In the academy, only Ye Mu, Ye Chen, Ye Qianqian, and Zhao Zhuzi, who took care of them, remained.

In order to ensure that Zhao Zhuzi had no suspicion of them whatsoever.

Ye Chen expressed his gratitude to Zhao Zhuzi.

"Uncle Zhao, thank goodness you took care of us, otherwise we would have had to cook for ourselves here."

"Yes, Uncle Zhao, you are such a kind person!"

Ye Mu chimed in.

Zhao Zhuzi laughed awkwardly.

“In my eyes, you are all homeless orphans. As an elder, it is my duty to take care of you.”

Well, it's fortunate that you are orphans.

I had absolutely no qualms about trafficking you.

Don't worry about family members reporting you missing, and don't be afraid that someone will come looking for you after you go missing.

I'm a member of a human trafficking gang, and I love abducting people like you who were born without parents!

Don't blame me; blame yourselves for not being born into the right family.

In the next life.

Try to be born into a royal family.

That way, no matter where you go, no one will dare to harm you!

But Zhao Zhuzi had no idea.

The three people in front of you are members of the royal family.

Ye Chen took a bite of the white porridge.

Intentional praise.

"Wow, it smells so good! There's even shredded meat in it!"

"Uncle Zhao, you're so kind to us! We haven't had meat in so long!"

Yeah, right.

Ye Mu also took a sip of the congee.

"It tastes so good, little brother! It seems our parents have been protecting us all along. We've really met our benefactors!"

"Of course! Eat more!!"

Yes, yes, yes.

You guys should eat more.

That way I can sleep very, very soundly.

When you wake up, you will find that you are already far away from Dayuan City.

Even the three of you siblings have already been separated.

Kidnapping you is the first step.

Where you end up being sold is up to your own fate.

If your parents are truly watching over you from heaven.

You were sold to a wealthy family to be servants to the young master.

That's your good fortune.

If he catches the eye of a rich heiress, he'll rise to a higher social status, transforming from a "phoenix man" (a man from humble beginnings to achieve success) into a wealthy gentleman.

That would be even more of a blessing for you.

but.

If a wealthy family doesn't take a liking to you, you'll only be sold into hard labor.

As for this cute little girl...

Sell ​​them to a brothel and let the madam train them properly.

She might become the top courtesan in the brothel.

What's wrong with being a courtesan?

It's much better than the days when we can only eat plain porridge.

If you're lucky.

You met a wealthy young man who was willing to redeem you from your bondage.

Then they'll rise to prominence and become like phoenixes!

Don't forget that when the time comes.

Your good fortune is a gift from me after I kidnapped you!

At this moment, Zhao Zhuzi was still immersed in the immense joy of getting a sum of money after abducting the three of them.

He had no idea.

A net is already quietly approaching him.

And at that very moment.

Ye Mu and Ye Chen pretended to faint after eating congee laced with sleeping pills.

Ye Qianqian, who was playing with her fingers in the basket placed by Ye Chen, was startled.

[Brother! Brother!]

Has she really fainted?!

[I really want to know if it was an act to impress Zhao Zhuzi, or if she genuinely didn't know anything and just fainted!]

Zhao Zhuzi immediately came over.

He nudged Ye Mu and Ye Chen.

After seeing that the two of them did not react.

Zhao Zhuzi laughed triumphantly.

"Hahaha! You two idiots, your vigilance is too poor!"

"Didn't your families teach you that you shouldn't eat things given to you by strangers?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, you don't have parents who can teach you this principle of life!"

"So, this is an important lesson in life that you need to learn through your own experiences!"

Zhao Zhuzi looked around.

He immediately went outside.

Ye Mu heard the footsteps gradually fade away.

He said it in a low voice.

"Little sister, your brother was faking fainting."

"You must be a good boy/girl."

"Don't cry or make a fuss, or Zhao Zhuzi will drug you!"

"The drug is harmful to your body! Don't give him that chance!"

After hearing Ye Mu's words, Ye Qianqian...

I breathed a sigh of relief.

[Great! My brother was just faking it after all. Now I'm relieved!]

[From now on, I promise I won't cry or make a fuss, and I'll let Zhao Zhuzi take me away!]

[By the way, when will my immortal power finally recover?]

I haven't even recovered the most basic divine power to communicate with other deities!

What was the mantra again? I must have been living too comfortably in this world; after lying around for so long, this non-competitive lifestyle has actually made my IQ drop!

Sigh, so why should I live a Buddhist-like life?

At that very moment.

Ye Mu heard the sound of messy footsteps approaching from a distance.
