The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

With a light sigh, Qingfeng Li collected his thoughts and looked at Xiangling.

"You don't have to be nervous. I'm not a bad person."

Finally, he added,

"Of course, he's not a good person either."

"I asked Zhao Dagou to bring you back because I've heard about you occasionally. Now I'm in need of a maid. Are you willing to be my maid?"

Xiangling's expression became even more stunned when she heard this, and she was at a loss for a moment.

Along the way, she had already realized that her brother was actually from Qingfeng Village, a group of bandits.

Although he is a dull person, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know what a bandit means.

On the way back, she already understood what she might face.

It's nothing more than being toyed with by the mountain king, and then either being raised or killed directly.

But Xiangling, who had always been submissive, never thought of resisting.

Because she knew that she had no right to resist.

But she never expected that this mountain king would actually ask for her opinion.

Ask her if she is willing to be her maid?

How could she not be surprised?

Just as Xiangling was astonished, Zhao Dagou beside her was stamping his feet anxiously.

He said to Xiangling anxiously,

"Sister Xiangling, what are you still thinking about?"

"This means being our bee master's maid! This is what many women dream of. Why don't you agree to it?"

Xiangling was frightened by Zhao Dagou's rude and anxious voice and trembled all over.

Li Qingfeng glanced at Zhao Dagou.

Zhao Dagou immediately smiled awkwardly and shut his mouth.

But he looked genuinely anxious.

Qingfeng Li said to Xiangling with a smile,

"You don't need to listen to Big Dog. I'm sure you've guessed my identity."

"Yes, I am the Peak Master of Qingfeng Village!"

Seeing Xiangling seemed a little puzzled, Li Qingfeng explained,

"Oh! That's what you usually call the King of the Mountain!"

Then, he continued,

"If you don't want to be my maid..."

Before she could finish her words, Xiangling knelt on the ground again.

Ruo Ruo looked up at Qingfeng Li and asked,

"Then, Master Bee, if Xiangling does something wrong in the future, could you please not drive me away? You can hit me, but just don't hit me too hard and don't kill me."

Looking at Xiangling crying, Qingfeng Li was slightly stunned.

I wanted to say I won’t hit you.

But when I think about Xiangling's past and her future experiences.

I sighed deeply in my heart.

Damn human traffickers!

What happened to that nice girl?

I was originally thinking about how to coax this girl, but I didn't expect that she would be so submissive.

No wonder he was beaten to death in the original novel and never complained.

Originally, he thought that if Xiangling was unwilling to stay in Qingfeng Village, he would send her down the mountain and let her become an ordinary citizen.

But it seems that if I let her go down the mountain, I would really be harming her.

Given Xiangling's personality, it's likely that she will be coveted by people around her again.

Thinking of this, Qingfeng Li felt even more pity and sympathy for this ill-fated girl.

Since I rescued her, I should give her a bright future and ending!

He sighed softly, stepped forward, bent down, and helped Xiangling up.

Help her to tidy up her messy hair.

Looking at her slightly evasive yet timid eyes, he nodded heavily.

"Okay! I promise you!"

"From now on, as long as you don't want to leave, I will never drive you away."

"Also, if you didn't do something wrong on purpose, I wouldn't hit you."

As he said this, he pointed at Zhao Dagou who was standing beside him.

"The big dog is here listening too. Let him bear witness to what I say!"

Zhao Dagou grinned at Xiangling and said,

"Sister Xiangling, let me tell you, a word from our bee master is worth a thousand taels of gold!"

Qingfeng Li rolled his eyes.

"That's a promise worth a thousand gold! I told you to read more, but you just wouldn't listen."
