below the lord

As the year approached, the devil suddenly summoned me in the main hall.

"And relatives?"

"Yes."

I nodded and agreed, not showing anything on the surface, but I was very happy in my heart.I don't know what the devil's wishful thinking is, but as long as I can get out of this ghost place, I will agree to anything.

The manager explained to me the purpose of this trip, which is roughly to go to Qicheng in the north to have a blind date with Lord Qi.It is said that Lord Qi likes men, thinking of this, Lu Li smiled at himself in the mirror, no wonder the devil let me go.

When I was packing my luggage, I felt strange, why is there no sign of Qing'er?

I called my attendant to call Qing'er.After a while, Dai Cong came back, but Qing'er still didn't come.

"Return to the young master, Qing'er is ill, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you for the time being, please forgive me, the young master."

I was at a loss, why did I get sick at this juncture.Naturally, I don't have any nostalgia for this devil's place, but if I want to leave, I don't want to give up Qing'er.

"I have to go even if I'm sick, so tell her to pack up and follow me to Qicheng tomorrow."

"This...isn't it good?"

"What's wrong?"

"Young master, you are going to make a kiss. It would be very rude to City Lord Qi with a sick maid."

I don't care if he is rude, let alone City Lord Qi who has never met, I just want to get out of this ghostly place quickly.But on second thought, if I forcibly take Qing'er away with me, I'm afraid the devil will become suspicious, and then no one will be able to leave.

"Then who will take care of me along the way?"

"Young master, don't worry, the city lord has already arranged maids and waiters for you."

"Okay, then you go back and tell Qing'er to see me in Qicheng after she recovers. After all, she was given to me by my father, and she has always served me. I'm afraid I can't do it well if I change someone else. Father Adults also understand."

"Yes, the small one must convey it to you."

Although the attendant swore to take orders frankly, I was still restless all night, maybe it was just that I was not used to not seeing Qing'er suddenly, I comforted myself like this, and went to Qicheng early the next morning according to the arrangement of the devil.

Lord Qi Nianxia was beyond my expectation, he was a pretty good-looking person, no wonder so many people came to kiss him.But City Lord Qi doesn't like any of them, including me.This is the first time someone is not attracted to me, I really want to know what kind of person he is.

After finally getting out from the devil, how could I be willing to go back so quickly, not to mention that if I didn't fulfill the devil's expectation, going back would be worse than death, so I had no choice but to live in the mansion of City Lord Qi with a cheeky face.

Probably due to the fact that I am the adopted daughter of Lord Jiang, he did not refuse.But after staying for a while, I didn’t see that I had any plans to go home. City Lord Qi once sent someone to tell me that I should go back.

I ran into City Lord Qi a few times while wandering around the mansion, and he seemed to see that I had something to hide. From his words, I felt that he wanted to help me, but in the end, I still didn't reveal anything about me.He is also the lord of the city like the devil, which makes me feel bad, how can I trust him casually.It is also because the maid sent by the devil to watch closely, even if I am so far away from the devil, I still cannot escape his control.

After a few days of getting along, I felt that the maid following me must have other plans. Although I don’t know what it is, it must have nothing to do with me. Except for my face and body, the devil has nothing to squeeze from me.

The days in Lord Qi’s mansion have been spent in uneasiness. I was afraid that Lord Qi would eventually ask me to go back, and I was afraid of returning to the devil again, but no matter how I showed favor, City Lord Qi remained unmoved. Is there any problem with him? If he can fall in love with me, all problems will be solved.

It was only later that I found out that City Lord Qi already has someone he likes.Even so, so what, I don't believe that there are infatuated people in this world who only recognize one person and don't let go.

City Lord Qi actually likes a boy who is two or three years younger than me—Nian Dong, who is about the same age as Qing Er.I got along with him for a few days and didn't find anything special about him. He is neither outstanding nor talented. The only thing that makes me feel good is that staying with him is quite comfortable, because he has no thoughts. Also silly and cute.

The things about City Lord Qi and Nian Dong were not allowed to be revealed at first, but they were all heard from a maid named Chang Xi in the mansion.She really has a big mouth, but thanks to her, I found out that Nian Dong, like me, was brought back from the male prostitution brothel by the city lord.I'm really glad I didn't really believe in Nianxia before, how good can a person who can go to a brothel expect?I can see a lot of men there, they are all duplicity, sanctimonious hypocrites, what they say is like leftovers from overnight dinner that can fill the whole street.

Unlike me, Niandong's life in the mansion is beyond my reach.City Lord Qi loves him so much that even a blind man can smell it.It's really enviable, why he can live so well, but I can only have food by begging for mercy from the devil.God knows how to joke, and has never been fair to this world.

It would be great if I was brought back by City Lord Qi back then, even if people will love the new and hate the old, at least life here must be better than before.In those few days, I even dreamed that it was me who was begging for sex under City Lord Qi, being caressed by him like a baby, and putting a kiss on my brow, I closed my eyes contentedly, gasped and shouted, "Nian Xia, Nian Xia-ah--" and reached the peak.

Soon it will be New Year's Eve, the past few days City Lord Qi looks at me very strangely, always revealing sadness and disappointment and an inexplicable hostility.

Early in the morning, that foolish Niandong came over to ask me if I would go back to Jiangcheng for the New Year, and if I wanted to be Lord Jiangcheng.It's really ridiculous, he doesn't understand anything, and he is really happy to live.

Naturally, I wouldn't say much to him, so I went to the streets with him on the pretext of buying new year's goods.The maid next to her couldn't get rid of her no matter what, it was really annoying, if only Qing'er was there.Just when I was thinking this way, Niandong's lively and silly boy stopped by the side of the road rarely, so I went over to take a look out of curiosity.

Heh, a child is just a child, even the gifts are so naive, I looked at Nian Dong's blushing face and the gift I was holding tightly in my palm to give to Nian Xia - a stone, ordinary, Unremarkable and silly, but why does it make me so unhappy.Burning with anger for no reason, I couldn't hold back and told him my suspicions about Nian Xia. Seeing his angry face but unable to refute it, I felt much more at ease.He is so stupid that he doesn't know he will be cheated sooner or later. It's better for him if I told him earlier, otherwise he would think that there would be some good people who would go shopping in brothels.

Along the way, he was angry and I was happy. Everything seemed to be going well, if nothing happened suddenly.
