In order to survive, she forced herself to have a happy ending with the yandere villain.

Qiao Wanwan and her maid were led into a room by an old woman.

The room was bathed in sunlight, and a faint fragrance wafted through the air upon entering. It was fully furnished with tables, chairs, and a counter. The quilt and curtains on the couch were a clean, elegant emerald green, perfect for a young woman.

The old woman who led the way respectfully said to Qiao Wanwan:

“Miss, your bedroom is here, and your maid’s quarters are in the next side room. If you need anything, please call me. I’m in the servants’ quarters in the next courtyard.”

"Okay, thanks..."

Qiao Wanwan paused for a moment, looking at her older sister who was twice her age, and didn't know what to call her.

The old woman understood what she meant, and smiled as she reminded her:

"Miss, you may call me Mei Niang."

"Okay, thank you, Mei Niang."

“Miss, you are the first woman the young master has brought into the manor. You are so beautiful that I can tell at a glance that you are the most honored guest in our Xie family. In the future, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to tell Mei Niang.”

"it is good."

Hearing the old woman's praise, Qiao Wanwan blushed slightly, feeling a little shy, but she was quite happy.

The first woman.

That's because the other person likes Gu Chaomu.

She could be considered to have benefited from Gu Chaomu's presence, being able to come to the Xie residence as a guest.

Along the way, she noticed that in the huge Xie mansion, she only saw guards and old women.

There isn't even a young maidservant?

She couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Mei Niang, I just want to ask, where are all the young women here? I haven't seen a single one!"

"!"

Mei Niang paused slightly, her eyes darting around, and then she smiled and teased:

"Our master and young master don't like having young girls around. There used to be young girls, but when they saw the young master, their eyes would glare at him, and they couldn't concentrate on their work. So the young master sent them all away, and now the young girls have all gone home to live their lives properly. Now only a few of us old women are left to manage the Xie family in the Xie mansion. But that's enough. The master and young master both prefer quiet and don't like noise."

Qiao Wanwan sighed.

"Wow, you're the only ones who tidied up this huge mansion. Mei Niang, you must be working so hard."

“Young lady, you are so kind. The old women still get their monthly wages in full. As long as they can stay with the Xie family and work for the city magistrate, it’s all worth it, no matter how hard it is.”

"Well, it's fine."

Qiao Wanwan smiled and nodded.

"By the way, Miss, would you like to have a meal now? The young master has sent some food over, and the deliveryman is waiting outside the door."

"Well, it's time for you to have lunch. Serve your meal."

"Okay, girl."

Several old women appeared at the door, carrying food inside.

Several large lunch boxes were placed steadily on the table. They were opened one by one, and the colorful, fragrant, and delicious food inside wafted out.

This immediately whetted Qiao Wanwan's appetite, making her swallow hard.

While the old women were preparing the food, they all secretly and curiously watched Qiao Wanwan, who was sitting obediently in her seat.

His eyes seemed to show amazement and satisfaction, and he was secretly pleased.

Only Qiao Wanwan stared intently at the food, watching her favorite dishes being taken out bit by bit.

There were also many pastries she loved to eat.

They did not find anyone around them to be acting in any unusual way.

After the old women finished preparing the food, Mei Niang called them away and went to the door herself.

He addressed the people inside the room respectfully:

"Miss, please enjoy your meal. We will take our leave now."

"okay."

Mei Niang gave a slight bow and then closed the door.

With a loud bang, the sound of a group of people leaving followed outside.

"Wow, the Xie family is really generous. They brought more than a dozen main dishes and five desserts to entertain their guests. That's great, and they just happen to be all my favorites."

Qiao Wanwan picked up her chopsticks and quickly urged Chunxia, ​​who was standing next to her, to hurry up.

"Chunxia, ​​come sit down and eat with us. How can I possibly eat all this by myself?"

"Okay, thank you, miss."

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Chunxia stopped being coy.

He sat down opposite the young lady and they picked up their chopsticks to eat together.

"This tastes really good, better than what you get in restaurants. As expected of a prestigious family, even the chef's cooking is top-notch."

Qiao Wanwan was so focused on eating that she was very happy, and her fair cheeks puffed up.

But Chunxia on the other side looked worried.

“Miss…did you notice that the way those old women looked at you was different just now?”

Qiao Wanwan looked puzzled, her cheeks puffed out, and her speech was somewhat unclear.

"What kind of look did the old woman give you?"

"In spring and summer, I observed that their eyes were all the same, like a mother-in-law meeting her future daughter-in-law with a feeling of satisfaction."

"puff!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wanwan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of rice.

"Cough cough cough."

Chunxia was surprised by the young lady's strong reaction and went forward to help her catch her breath.

Qiao Wanwan took a deep breath and regulated her breathing.

His face contorted, and as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, Chunxia, ​​what nonsense are you talking about?"

"?"

Seeing her mistress smiling happily, Chunxia assumed that her mistress was also very proud of this, and she was happy and proud for her mistress as well.

They knew everyone liked young ladies, and they were overjoyed at first sight.

To everyone's surprise, Qiao Wanwan laughed, tears welling in her eyes, and jokingly teased:

"Why would a mother-in-law meet her daughter-in-law? How could that be? Don't they know what kind of person their young master likes?"

"?"

Chunxia looked puzzled. Hearing what Miss said, did Miss know what Young Master Xie liked?

The more curious you are, the more you ask:

"Does Miss know what kind of person Young Master Xie likes?"

"Haha, of course, it's Gu Chaomu!"

"... "

Qiao Wanwan was overjoyed, but in a moment of carelessness, she said the wrong thing.

"!!"

When she came to her senses, she covered her mouth in surprise.

Chunxia, ​​on the other hand, was speechless.

I know, Miss, you're talking nonsense again.

Helplessly, I reminded her:

"Miss, Young Master Xie and Young Hero Gu are just brothers. What Chunxia is asking is what kind of woman Young Master Xie likes?"

"This... how would I know? She's probably a girl like Gu Chaomu."

"... "

Asking that question is as good as not saying anything at all.

Qiao Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief.

If Chunxia knew that the handsome Young Master Xie liked another man, how much psychological damage would that cause her?

Haha, luckily Chunxia didn't believe what she said.

Her answer wasn't wrong; Xie Ze did indeed like someone like Gu Chaomu.

Qiao Wanwan took a sip of tea and continued eating with her chopsticks.

"Spring and Summer, let's eat quickly, the food won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Okay, miss."

...

In the stillness of the night, the moon hung halfway in the sky, its faint light shining through the window onto the emerald green mattress.

Jingle bell~

The beads hanging by the curtain jingled softly in the breeze, shimmering in the pale moonlight.

There was a slight movement inside the bulging blanket.

Long, dark hair emerged from the warm bedding.

Qiao Wanwan rolled over and lay flat on the soft bed. Unable to sleep, she stared blankly at the ceiling.

The moonlight shone on the woman's rosy cheeks, giving off a cool and serene aura. Only her crystal-clear eyes sparkled, captivating and enchanting.

Her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly as she stared at the doorway, then she turned and lay down on her side.

Chunxia was sleeping in the next room. Even though she couldn't sleep, she didn't want to bother Chunxia to get up and keep her company.

Therefore, she could only imagine in her mind how wonderful her future life would be, and she was quite happy about it.

QQ~

"!"

Qiao Wanwan suddenly heard a sound at the window. Looking over, she saw a tall figure appear at the window.

She grabbed the blanket, her nerves immediately on high alert.

"who is it?"
