"Alright! Then, Second Brother, we'll head back first!"
After bidding farewell to Lin Shaoyang, Lin Yuxin and Li Xiaochen leisurely returned to the Lin residence.
...
Xin Tongle was almost in tears again. She had walked with this dark-faced demon all the way. It was the New Year, and there were so many people. She was bumped and knocked around by passersby. She didn't want the demon behind her to help her, so she could only grit her teeth and keep walking.
But who can tell her where they're going?
Could it be... that they're going to sell her?
Xin Tongle grew increasingly frightened. She sobbed, "I shouldn't have listened to my father! He said Lin Shaoyang was a good match, and if he married me, I'd have someone to rely on for the rest of my life!"
Now, Lin Shaoyang completely ignores her and has dumped her on some bastard!
Waaaaah, I'm so miserable!!!
Xueying rolled her eyes at the woman who had been crying all the way. Was this woman made of water? Didn't her eyes hurt after crying all that way?
Moreover, they hadn't gone very far. The princess asked him to find her a place to stay. The princess had a courtyard in the east of the city, which was quite nice, but it was far from the Lin residence. He thought that place was the most suitable.
After walking for an hour, they still hadn't left the west side of the city. Finally, Xueying couldn't bear it any longer. She stepped forward, grabbed Xin Tongle by the back of the neck, and with a leap, disappeared from the spot.
"ah!!!"
"ah!!!"
Xin Tongle felt dizzy and disoriented. She was so frightened by Xue Ying's amazing maneuver that she screamed repeatedly. She couldn't fly!
Help!! She's nauseous!!!
Xin Tongle screamed all the way. People on the street heard the screams and looked up, only to see a dark shadow flash by, followed by screams that grew louder and then faded away.
The people on the street looked around in confusion, but still couldn't see anything.
Some people have already begun to discuss this strange and bizarre event.
They say that with so many strange things happening since the beginning of spring this year, something big is bound to happen this year.
Some say that this sound must be because of some injustice that happened the year before last, and the person is coming out at the end of the year to seek justice.
Suddenly, the atmosphere on the bustling streets during the Lunar New Year holiday became somewhat eerie!
The two of them had no idea what commotion Xueying and Xueying had caused. At this moment, Xueying felt like her ears were going to be ruined because the woman had been screaming all the way.
If the princess hadn't given him orders to settle this woman, he would have really wanted to throw her away.
After finally arriving at Liuhe Street in the east of the city, as soon as they entered the courtyard, Xueying immediately let go of her, took a step back, and moved away from her.
Otherwise, his ears would really be ruined. He was even thinking about whether he should go to the princess to report the work injury.
Xueying had been spending a lot of time with Lin Yuxin, and apart from being a bit cold-hearted, she had actually been infected by Lin Yuxin and started to become unreliable.
"ah!"
"ah!"
Xin Tongle was still shouting while standing on the ground, waving her hands wildly as if she had lost her soul.
For the sake of her own ears, Xueying had no choice but to shout aloud:
"Miss Xin! Miss Xin! We've arrived!"
Xueying called out twice before she finally brought Xin Tongle back to her senses.
Xin Tongle stopped, still looking shaken, then stared blankly at Xueying a few steps away, and stammered:
"We've...we've arrived??"
Is this where they're going to sell her? Waaaaah, she's so pitiful!!!
Xueying frowned as she looked at the woman, who seemed to be on the verge of death. She thought the woman must have some serious illness. She had found her a place to stay, yet she was so unwilling. It was a waste of the princess's good intentions.
"Yes, we've arrived. You'll be staying here from now on. The princess will assign two servants to take care of your daily needs. This place is located in the east of the capital. Just a short walk to the left after leaving the courtyard will take you to the market. You can go and have a look and buy whatever you want."
After Xueying finished speaking, she took out five hundred taels of silver from her bosom and gave it to her, then added:
"This is the allowance the princess has given you. I will send you a monthly allowance regularly from now on! If you encounter any difficulties, just have a servant inform the Lin family, and the princess will help you!"
Xin Tongle only realized what the demon was saying after hearing it. They didn't intend to sell me? They even gave me such a big courtyard and maids to take care of me?
"Really...really? You're not going to sell me out?"
Xin Tongle stared at Xueying in disbelief and asked.
"Why would I sell you? You didn't think I was going to sell you the whole way here, did you?"
Now it was Xueying's turn to frown. She finally understood why this girl had gone through all this trouble. She immediately thought that this girl's brain must be filled with mush.
"You...you look so fierce, and you just grabbed me and flew away for no reason. I was already scared, so naturally I thought you were either going to kill me or sell me!"
Xin Tongle knew they weren't really going to sell her. The courage she had shown when seducing Lin Shaoyang earlier had returned, and now she had the nerve to shift the blame onto this scoundrel.
Xueying:...?
So it was my fault after all?
"The princess wouldn't do such a thing, and neither would I. Put your mind at ease. Since she said she would take care of you, she won't try to kill you, provided that you don't have any improper thoughts about the second young master!"
Xueying felt too lazy to argue with her, but she still needed to prove something to the princess, so she spoke in a cold voice.
Hearing his words, Xin Tongle finally felt relieved, as long as he didn't kill her. However, Xin Tongle remembered the arrogant princess, which didn't leave a good first impression, so she couldn't say anything kind.
"Who knows? That princess is so arrogant and domineering, she must be difficult to get along with, besides...!"
