Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them
Chapter 181 Yangzhou Slim Horses (3)
The next day.
Liang Qiuli had promised to be Lu Jingyan's maid to repay his kindness in redeeming her from her servitude, so she naturally got up early.
To her surprise, she heard Xiao He's voice right after she finished washing up.
"Master, does the general really intend to redeem you?"
Xiao He was invited by Ling Fei on Lu Jingyan's special request because he was worried that Liang Qiuli might overthink things if she was alone.
"Yes. I'll plan out a way for you."
In her past life, Xiaohe risked her life to protect the original owner. Before she returned to the capital with Lu Jingyan this time, she would definitely make proper arrangements for her so that Xiaohe could also leave Xianle Pavilion and live a peaceful life.
“Master, Xiaohe only wants to follow you. Wherever you go, Xiaohe will go.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Qiuli felt a warm current flow through her heart, and she gently patted Xiaohe's hand.
"Silly girl, you..."
In the end, Liang Qiuli couldn't persuade Xiaohe otherwise and decided to take her to the capital with her.
"My lord is the best. By the way, my lord, do you know what happened to Bai Xia? I just heard from the servants in the manor that she was beaten with a cane by the general and then..."
Xiaohe hadn't finished speaking when she was interrupted by Lu Jingyan's deep, cold voice.
"Who told you to say these things to Qiu Li!"
Lu Jingyan had just heard Xiao He pledge her loyalty to Liang Qiuli and thought she was a good person. He believed that if she was properly trained, she could become Qiuli's capable assistant in the future.
But upon hearing her mention these sordid matters in front of Qiu Li, his face instantly darkened.
He strode up to Liang Qiuli, scrutinized her expression, and only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he was sure she wasn't frightened or afraid of him. He then turned to look sternly at Xiaohe.
Seeing this, Liang Qiuli stepped forward to block Lu Jingyan's view, and then hurriedly said to Xiaohe.
"Xiao He, you go out first. I have something to say to the general alone."
Liang Qiuli spoke up, and Lu Jingyan naturally stopped lashing out at Xiaohe, but the coldness in his eyes did not completely dissipate.
Liang Qiuli straightened her expression.
“General, Qiu Li is not ignorant. Bai Xia has always been hostile towards me, so I am grateful to you for dealing with her. I will not be afraid of you because of this.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingyan's eyes flashed with surprise. Then, thinking that Liang Qiuli had been able to treat her wounds alone at Baiyun Temple, he felt that her reaction was reasonable.
He understood that although Liang Qiuli appeared delicate, she was not the kind of woman who needed constant care; she possessed her own resilience.
"And regarding what happened last night, I can see how much the General cherishes me. But to be honest, General, I have a wish in my heart, which is that I do not want to be a concubine, so Qiu Li cannot agree to the General's request for the time being."
Lu Jingyan's eyes narrowed instantly. He was somewhat surprised, not expecting Liang Qiuli to express her feelings so directly.
Despite his rejection, he showed no anger; instead, his love for Liang Qiuli only intensified.
He initially noticed her only because of her looks, but now he is deeply attracted by her frank personality.
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: since he didn't intend to marry anyone else, it wouldn't hurt to give the position to Liang Qiuli.
Liang Qiuli stared intently at Lu Jingyan with her almond-shaped eyes.
Although he still maintained his indifferent demeanor, looking into his ever-changing eyes, she knew that her actions had completely captivated him.
This way, when they return to Beijing, they will be more confident in dealing with Zhao Yaoyao and Fu Xinhan. In fact, Lu Jingyan can handle everything for her without her even lifting a finger.
"It's okay if you don't agree now. I'll make Lili trust me, and then she'll agree willingly."
