You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

Chu Bai had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes with light pupils. When he looked at people aggrievedly, he looked like a poor abandoned puppy, which made people feel sorry for him:

"Miss, I have learned all the etiquette of the Duke's Mansion. I can also grow flowers, feed horses, and trim horse hooves. Yesterday I also learned how to pick rouge. As long as you need me, I can learn. Please don't drive me away."

Lin Zhaoyue's heart was like black iron, no matter how he begged, she remained unmoved:

"You can't stay in the Duke's Mansion. Pack up and leave immediately."

"Miss……"

He begged, looking more and more pitiful.

"Chu Bai, the Duke's Mansion doesn't need you, and I don't need you either, so go away!"

The girl's pretty face was completely cold, without a single ounce of room for maneuver.

Chu Bai's eyes were dim. He squeezed out juice from the tender white fruit flesh, which flowed along his white fingertips to the back of his hand, making it sticky and uncomfortable.

The young man lowered his head and whispered:

"Xiaobai really wants to stay with the young lady."

noob?

Hearing these two words, a trace of astonishment flashed across Lin Zhaoyue's eyes. The boy in front of her and the boy in her previous life overlapped at a certain moment, making Lin Zhaoyue a little dazed.

"Why?"

In his previous life, he stayed in the Duke's Mansion in order to survive, but in this life he no longer needs to rely on anyone.

But why did he insist on staying in the Duke's Mansion?

If there is a way to survive, who would be willing to be a slave?

"Why?"

Chu Bai raised his head, the corners of his eyes were stained with scarlet, and his clear pupils were full of grievance:

"Then why did the young lady go to so much trouble to buy the slave back from the black market, but then chase the slave away again and again?"

Lin Zhaoyue was speechless for a moment.

She let him go for his own good, but she had told him those words before, and now that he was still so persistent, those words were of no use.

Lin Zhaoyue's face turned cold and she said in a cold voice:

"I don't need to explain anything to you. Anyway, you have to leave. If you don't leave before dark, then I will have to let Seventeen throw your things out."

She had already given him enough money to ensure that he would have a comfortable life in the capital.

Lin Zhaoyue stood up, without looking at his expression again, and turned to walk into the house.

Chu Bai looked at Lin Zhaoyue's neat back, pursed his lips, and said:

"Miss, can you let me stay in the Duke's Mansion for another night?"

Lin Zhaoyue paused and said nothing.

It’s considered as a default!

Before the door closed, she said:

"You can eat that plate of lychees!"

Ordinary servants were not allowed to touch the things bestowed by the emperor, but Lin Zhaoyue gave him a plate of it as a reward. She was obviously being nice to him but yet she wanted to drive him away. Chu Bai couldn't figure out what Lin Zhaoyue was thinking.

Lin Wan knew that Lin Zhaoyue was unhappy and hadn't eaten today, so she thought of going to Qianweilou to order some delicious food for her, and by the way, give the freshly embroidered handkerchief to Pei Jing.

In the carriage, Lin Wan took out a handkerchief and asked her maid Xunmei:

"Can you tell what's embroidered?"

When the maid heard Lin Wan's words, she trembled inwardly, "Ahhh! Miss, please don't let her guess anymore. She really can't guess your embroidery skills!"

Xunmei didn't dare let the young lady know what she was thinking, and hurriedly looked at the white handkerchief in her hand.

There are two round red fruits embroidered on it, and two plump green leaves embroidered on the fruit handles.

Xunmei's eyes lit up immediately and she said happily:

"Miss, are you embroidering a servant?"

Lin Wan: "..."

Even if her embroidery skills are terrible, she wouldn't embroider a person into a fruit!

Just when Lin Wan was wondering if there was something wrong with Xunmei's eyes, he heard Xunmei excitedly say:

"I will never make a mistake this time. This is Shumei!"

Lin Wan: "..."

She embroidered lychees!

She wished to be a pair of wings in the sky and a pair of branches on the ground. She gave this handkerchief to Pei Jing, hoping that their friendship would last forever.

Forget it, even if she can’t see it, she believes Pei Jing will be able to see it.

After folding the handkerchief and about to put it into his sleeve pocket, the carriage suddenly stopped. Lin Wan was caught off guard and almost flew out.

Fortunately, Xunmei supported her in time.

Seeing that Lin Wan was about to fall, Xun Mei scolded:

"Shan'er, what did you do? You almost made the young lady fall, do you know that?"

The driver, who was called Shan'er, apologized repeatedly and said:

"Miss, I didn't mean to do that. It's just that a man suddenly jumped out in front of the carriage."

Lin Wan hummed lightly, without any intention of blaming him.

Seeing that Lin Wan did not pursue the matter, Xunmei said:

"Be careful next time. What if the young lady falls? Let's go!"

Shan'er looked at the man lying in front of the carriage, covered in blood, and said:

"Miss, the man fell to the ground. He seemed to be seriously injured and his body was covered in blood."

Xunmei was about to ask Shan'er to help him to the side of the road when Lin Wan stood up.

The man lying under the carriage had tattered clothes and was covered in blood. He held a bloody sword in his hand, looking like a desperado!

Although in a dishevel, one could vaguely see that he had an extraordinary demeanor and his bloodstained face was unusually handsome.

Just as he was about to stand up, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and scarlet liquid gushed out of his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Sticky blood dripped onto the bluestone bricks. He forced himself to stand up, staggering. After only two steps, he could not hold on any longer and fell heavily to the ground.

His vision was blurred and he saw a woman in green clothes walking towards him with an anxious look on her face.

He was about to raise the sword in his hand, but when she called out a name, he sheathed the sword.

"Pei Jing! How are you?"

Pei Jing?

Does she know Jing'er? Who is she? Who is she?

Are you in the same group with them?

His body temperature was rapidly decreasing, his mind was in a state of confusion, and the man looked up at the graceful and beautiful figure in front of him. After realizing that she had no ill intentions, he used all his strength to say:

"Take me away."

After saying this, he lost consciousness.

It was the first time that Lin Wan saw Pei Jing injured so badly, and she was totally at a loss for a moment.

It was Xunmei who reacted first:

"Miss, ask Shan'er to take Master Pei to the clinic, otherwise his life might be in danger."

"well!"

Lin Wan regained some consciousness and recalled Pei Jing's appearance just now. It seemed that he was being chased by someone.

"Shan'er, carry the person on your back and send him to Pei's residence."

It is too dangerous to receive treatment in an outside clinic nowadays.

The person in her arms seemed to have heard her words and said weakly:

"Not going to Pei Mansion!"

He can't lead those people to Pei Mansion!

That group of lunatics are still so bold and arrogant even after arriving in the capital!

Lin Wan didn't have time to think about it. After hearing Pei Jing's words, he said:

"Take the person back to the Duke's Mansion."

"Yes, miss!"

Qingzhu had just come out of the dessert shop when she saw the carriage of the Duke's Mansion hurrying along the road. Although there was a curtain covering her face, she still lowered her head.

The carriage passed by hurriedly, and just as she was about to turn the corner, she saw several people following the carriage of the Duke's Mansion.

Their pace and temperament made it seem that they were not from the Duke's Mansion, but assassins.

The eldest lady is just a noble lady in the boudoir, why is she being hunted down?

If she let it go, the young lady would be killed in just two blocks.

If the eldest daughter died, the young lady would definitely be sad.
