"Did you need me for something?"
Yun Zhenyue stood in the cellar.
Holding a spray bottle, gardening shears, and a shovel, she asked Sam quizzically.
She didn’t know much about the manor’s young master.
She had only seen him occasionally in the garden, kicking and punching the rose bushes. If a butterfly fluttered by, he would immediately catch it and tear it apart with cruel satisfaction.
All in all,
he was like a spoiled brat with a serious anger problem.
But Yun Zhenyue was sure she had never provoked him.
She always greeted him politely, as was proper.
’Does the cellar have plants that need pruning, too?’
All she could see were thousands upon thousands of bottles of red wine.
"Can’t I call you over if I have nothing for you to do?"
Sam shot back aggressively.
He acted as if someone owed him a huge debt.
Blocking the cellar door, he pointed at Yun Zhenyue’s nose and sneered, "Let’s get one thing straight. You’re nothing but a filthy little rat in this manor."
"And I!"
"I am the son of the Marquis, the owner of this manor! Everything here belongs to me!"
Yun Zhenyue was displeased at being pointed at like that.
She just chalked it up to Sam having no manners.
But she still didn’t understand what he was getting at.
’I’m not planning to steal anything from the manor, so what does his property have to do with me?’
Seeing that Yun Zhenyue didn’t get it,
Sam started to get anxious. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Usually, the other servants would immediately grovel and agree to his every demand when he acted like this.
They would even proactively offer to do anything for him.
’Why is this newcomer so clueless about the rules?’
’Hand over your treasures!’
’Isn’t that how it’s supposed to work?’
Sam stewed for a long moment.
Finally, he stared straight at Yun Zhenyue and demanded self-righteously, "So, do you have anything to offer me?"
As he said this,
his expression was exceedingly proud.
It was as if Yun Zhenyue presenting him with a gift would be the highest honor.
"Huh?"
Yun Zhenyue’s face was a big question mark.
’Seriously?’
’I’m already working at this manor for practically nothing, and now I’m supposed to give *him* presents?’
’I don’t get it.’
’Is Loli the only normal person in this entire manor?’
"You want this shovel?"
Yun Zhenyue asked, tentatively offering the shovel.
’It’s just the gardener’s tool anyway.’
"A sh-shovel?"
Sam was stunned for a second, then a fire of rage surged in his chest. What little eyebrows he had knitted together tightly, a vein bulged on his temple, and his eyes blazed with fury!
’I don’t want a shovel!’
’I want that weird cat, that panda doll!’
’I want the treasures!’
’This idiot!’
’Is she trying to provoke me on purpose?’
"You damn old—"
Just as a crimson glint appeared in Sam’s eyes and he, unable to restrain himself any longer, prepared to lunge and tear Yun Zhenyue to shreds!
The unexpected happened.
The cellar door was suddenly flung open from the outside!
The force was immense!
The door swung around with the speed of a lightning strike!
Even Yun Zhenyue didn’t have time to react!
The edge of the door slammed right into Sam’s head!
"BANG!!!!!"
A huge crash rang out!
It even seemed to be followed by the sound of a CRACK.
Sam’s vision went black.
Then, he collapsed, falling to the ground with a THUD, unconscious.
Yun Zhenyue stared in astonishment.
’Is he faking it?’
This was the first time she’d ever seen a supernatural being get taken out by a door.
’He got knocked out just like that?’
’He’s so weak, he’s probably not even at the level of a Crimson-robed Ghost, is he?’
Just as she was pondering whether she should dig a hole and bury Sam,
she saw Loli rush into the cellar and ask anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Not only that,
but several unfamiliar figures followed behind Loli.
They hadn’t even entered yet,
but their excited voices arrived first.
"Brother Gu Yuan!"
"We came to find you!"
"Brother, I missed you so—"
"You?"
Yun Zhenyue watched as four children ran over excitedly.
But when they saw Yun Zhenyue, they, too, were stunned.
’That’s not right!’
’We sensed the aura of the bracelet!’
’How did it turn into a pretty lady?’
’Could it be that Brother Gu Yuan turned into a sister?’
Yun Zhenyue and the children stared blankly at each other.
...
「Soon after.」
Yun Zhenyue led the children to a secluded spot in the garden.
As for Sam, who had been taken out by the door?
The group didn’t give him a second thought; he was already completely forgotten.
After the children all explained at once,
Yun Zhenyue finally understood.
It was because of the Unity Bracelet she was wearing.
It had led the children to mistakenly believe that Gu Yuan had returned, so they had frantically snuck out of the orphanage.
Although they didn’t see Gu Yuan, they were still very excited to learn that Yun Zhenyue was his wife. They looked at her curiously, asking questions about him.
Yun Zhenyue didn’t hide anything.
She answered all of their questions right then and there.
"So that’s how it is," the little girl in the pretty dress said thoughtfully, like a grown-up. "Brother Gu Yuan snuck away just to get married?"
"Darn it! And I already told him I’d marry him when I grow up!"
"Oh well... I guess I’ll just have to be the second wife now."
The little girl sighed.
Listening from the side, Loli’s eyes widened slightly.
This bizarre view on marriage was making her head spin.
’Speaking of which, when she was about to go to the cellar to rescue Yun Zhenyue...’
She had seen this group of children fall from the sky.
The four children had fallen from such a great height, yet they just yelped a few times and complained that the little kid with the paintbrush was unreliable, without a single scratch on them.
Moreover,
the aura of that paper airplane...
Even she had felt threatened by it.
So when they asked to enter the manor to look for their "brother," Loli hadn’t refused.
’She never thought the person they were looking for would turn out to be connected to Yun Zhenyue?!’
"Oh, by the way, Sister, I haven’t introduced myself yet. I’m Meimei!"
"I’m their leader, and the mastermind behind this escape plan!"
the little girl said, pulling on Yun Zhenyue’s hand.
"This is Pangpang!"
"He can eat a lot. In one meal, he can eat as much as a small truck. The older sisters at the orphanage are always telling him to lose weight."
Hearing this, Pangpang,
whose round face looked like a freshly steamed white bun, scratched his head and said sheepishly, "Hello, Sister."
"This is Shoushou. He’s great at drawing. His goal is to become as amazing as Brother Gu Yuan. He’s the one who drew the paper airplane we rode here."
The skinny little boy holding the paintbrush nodded shyly.
"This is Kuku. Just like his name suggests, he loves to cry!"
"But it’s best not to make him cry, or bad things will happen."
Meimei said with great solemnity.
Kuku clutched a small bag to his chest and looked timidly at Yun Zhenyue.
When he saw Yun Zhenyue’s smile, he got scared and hid behind Meimei.
Hearing this, Yun Zhenyue now had a general understanding of the situation and suddenly posed a question.
"Then what about him?"
"Sister, who are you talking about?"
"There are only the four of us kids who came. I was afraid we’d be discovered if more people came along."
Meimei looked confused.
But when she turned her head,
she really did see a figure covered in blood-red shackles and seals!
An inhuman figure with a terrifyingly violent aura emerged from the bushes!
The figure seemed to be shrouded in darkness, cut off from the rest of the world.
Its crimson eyes held an endless abyss!
Just a single glance at it would make one’s heart leap into their throat and break out in a cold sweat!
Instantly, Meimei’s eyes flew wide open!
"We’re screwed!!!"
"How did *He* come along too!"
