Xiao Linghan had only taken a few steps when he heard a woman's voice behind him.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust.
He disliked having people stare at him, especially in a judgmental manner, which only made him feel disgusted.
But his pace unconsciously slowed down.
If Jiang Tian asked him to come over, he wouldn't refuse her request.
Even if he is annoyed, he will still be polite.
Soon, he heard Jiang Tian's voice: "What do you want to see him for?"
"Everyone's curious. They want to know what kind of treasure you're hiding, and they're reluctant to let it out every day."
"Don't joke around. He's not an object, he's a person, he's mine. There's no need to see him."
The young lady's expression immediately changed: "What's wrong with meeting him? He's just a male concubine."
Jiang Tian put down her tea and looked at the spoiled young lady: "Miss Chen, this is my house. You are only here today because your aunt and I are old acquaintances. It's one thing to offer you a cup of tea, but why should you be allowed to see my people?"
"I don't think you intend to stay here sincerely. Guards, show him out. We won't have any tea today."
When Jiang Tian gets angry, everyone around her is afraid.
Her aura is unmatched by ordinary people.
Moreover, considering his background, no one dared to offend him.
The young girl surnamed Chen, whom she had singled out, turned pale and then flushed, biting her lip and trembling for a long time, unable to utter a single word.
She originally came to curry favor with Jiang Tian, hoping to get her brother into the guard team.
Jiang Tian's guards received generous monthly pay, and they could bring back a lot of things during holidays. They also had new clothes all year round, making it a rare and desirable job.
But she couldn't control her temper and offended someone.
After a while, the others stood up reluctantly and followed the smiling maid out step by step.
The whole thing happened very quickly. By the time Xiao Linghan came to his senses, only Jiang Tian was left in the pavilion.
Xiao Linghan's expression turned complicated for a moment, then he turned and walked towards Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian glanced at him: "Why are you here if you're not going back?"
Xiao Linghan paused for a moment, then slowly said, "I would like to ask Madam for a job."
Jiang Tian became interested: "What kind of job do you want? In my manor, you can only be a servant. If you want to get ahead, you have to go outside. There are many wars in the Northwest, and only military officers can rise the ranks the fastest."
On their way back to the Northwest, the two of them had already agreed that Jiang Tian would not hinder Xiao Linghan from helping her advance her career, but on the condition that he would not go too far and would not affect the important matters that night.
If he can handle all of this, Jiang Tian won't restrict him.
Knowing all this, Xiao Linghan remained humble and unassuming when he first moved into the small courtyard. Even when he learned that Jiang Tian needed his approval to leave the mansion, he did not doubt whether Jiang Tian had changed her mind.
If Jiang Tian were a fickle person, Shen Yan, who hates betrayal the most, wouldn't be so infatuated with her.
Xiao Linghan spoke humbly, but his words were somewhat arrogant: "I want to become the leader of your guard. The current leader is too incompetent, and I'm worried that he won't be able to fully guarantee your safety."
Since we're going to protect her, let's start with the basics.
Jiang Tian glanced at him and suddenly laughed: "My leader is a master among masters, one in a million. You say you're better than him? You're just talking nonsense. Do you think I'd believe you?"
Xiao Linghan lowered his head even further: "I am willing to fight him to the death."
