Chapter 376 – Loyal to You
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“I don’t know how many have said this before, but I’m sure I’m the last!”
Xiaoliu said confidently, “What I said just now was definitely not a lie. I will be loyal to you alone and never betray you. Please believe me.”
Tang Yajing had to admit that these words gave her a better impression of the maid. However, she still held on to her rationality. She said with a faint smile, “It’s useless just saying it. You have to prove it. If I ask you to die, are you willing to do this?”
“If that is your wish.”
Without any hesitation, Xiaoliu took out a dagger from somewhere and slit her neck. Fortunately, Tang Yajing quickly stopped her, but fresh blood still flowed out of her neck. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Interesting. I was just joking with you. Why take it seriously?”
If the person sent by the old man disappeared for no reason, he would definitely investigate further. With his suspicious personality, he might even suspect that she was trying to usurp his position. At that time, her status in his heart would definitely be lowered. Moreover, the purpose of what she said just now was to test Xiaoliu’s position. What she lacked now was a handy tool.
Even if she was really disloyal, she had to live well until she found the next useful tool. But now, it seemed that she was thinking too much. Immediately, a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. The old master was really helping her this time! She was very satisfied with Xiaoliu!
Although Xiaoliu did not know what the Fifth Miss was thinking, she did not take her words to heart. Was she joking? If she was really joking, why would she wait for her to take out a dagger and cut herself before reaching out to stop her? Xiaoliu had been with the family head for a long time, so how could she not know the subtext of a superior?
If she had hesitated just now, there was a high chance that Fifth Miss would have sentenced her to death in her heart. Not long after, she would find an excuse to get rid of her and make her disappear from this world silently. This was the usual method of the family head. It was rumored that Fifth Miss, who was the most similar to him, would definitely do the same.
Before he sent her away, the family head had already guessed that this would happen today, so he told her to follow Fifth Miss well. From now on, Fifth Miss would be her master. This was his last order. She would follow it well. Let her see how this established next family head would ascend to that position!
“I’m sorry, I misunderstood you. I’ll be careful next time.”
She kept her posture low. Even if it wasn’t her fault this time, she took the blame.
The more Tang Yajing looked at this person, the more she liked her. Even her smile became more genuine. She said, “Bandage your wound so that you don’t faint from excessive blood loss later. You should have bandages on you, right? I saw you take them out a few days ago.”
“Okay.”
Xiao Liu calmly took out a bandage from her pocket and began to bandage her wound. She had a blank expression, as though the wound was on someone else’s body. It was as if she could not feel any pain at all, like a robot! After she finished treating the wound, Tang Yajing curiously pressed on it and asked, “Does it hurt?”
“It hurts, but I’m used to it. This small injury is nothing.”
Oh my, she’s quite amazing, thought Tang Yajing!
Seeing that the bleeding had finally stopped but fresh blood was about to flow again, Tang Yajing retracted her hand and said, “I’ve already thought of what to say. Third Sister’s legs are on her own body. I didn’t force her to go out. If it’s the latter, then this matter is indeed related to me. But the problem is that it’s not the case. I can stop her once, but can I stop her a second time?”
She paused for a moment and continued, “I can’t possibly stop whatever I’m doing and keep an eye on her, right? If she has the heart to go out, what can I do as her sister? I’ve done what I should do, and Old Master has said what he needs to say, but she’s still stubborn. Third Sister is too stubborn.
Even if such a person stays at home, something will happen sooner or later. I might as well let her go out and harm others! Besides, I can’t wait for her to seek her own death. She’s really an eyesore! She doesn’t know her own limits at all. Although I’ve long excluded her, I can’t stand her provocative ways. I believe the other sisters think the same.”
A scourge? Xiaoliu thought.
It seemed that this had already become the consensus of everyone in the Tang family.
Xiaoliu looked at the dog hole in the distance and asked curiously, “Fifth Miss, you don’t seem very surprised by this passageway? Could it be that you…”
Before she could finish, Tang Yajing nodded and said in a mocking tone, “Whenever I tricked her when I was young, I couldn’t find her no matter where I went, even if I searched the entire Tang residence. Moreover, she always came back before dinner, looking smug. Of course, I couldn’t stand her, so I placed a locator on her.”
A locator?!
Xiao Liu thought that Fifth Miss had discovered the passageway herself. She did not expect her to be so meticulous at such a young age! Emotions welled up in her heart, but she did not show anything on the surface. She only lowered her head again. No wonder those people said that Fifth Miss is a monster.
After all, who would have thought that a child that young would do such a thing?
“Then I realized that she had crawled out of the dog hole. At that time, I wanted to use this matter to threaten Third Sister. In the end, I accidentally let Old Master know what I had done. He told me not to go overboard because people are always resistant and xenophobic about the unknown and things they cannot control. In order to become the head of the family, I had to do as he said.”
At that time, she had already regarded this position as her own. That was why when Tang Wenyi tried to fight for it later, she kept scheming in the dark. Now that the other party was already deep in the mud, she could not be bothered to attack her! Suddenly, she sneered and said, “She thought that we are kept in the dark, but she doesn’t know that she’s the fool!”
We?
Surprise appeared on Xiaoliu’s face, but it quickly disappeared, as quickly as if it were an illusion. “You mean…”
“The other sisters also know about the dog hole. Although they don’t know the details, they have some inkling of it. Well, Third Sister is always leaving traces of her activities and whereabouts whenever she appears out of thin air for no reason. Even a blind person knows where she went!”
The key is that Tang Wenyi always looks smug and looks down on everyone! Isn’t she just treating us as fools? She deserves to be disliked at home! No wonder the elders at home look down on her!
Then she looked in the direction where Third Sister had left and smiled. Don’t disappoint me.
