Chapter 75.2 - Female slave Lan Bai

Miss Lou … actually bought a female slave?

How could he tell that to his master?

But master didn’t say not to let her buy a slave … ah, whatever, we’ll just wait for master to deal with it afterwards.

They’d definitely have to investigate the female slave’s background and if there was no problem, following how his master doted on miss Lou, he was afraid that he’d just let her do what she wanted.

Thinking it through, Feng Shiyi became calm and just waited patiently.

The host held the silver banknotes and smiled so hard, her eyes disappeared.

Be good, she actually bumped into a rich person with no sense, to think that a girl would actually use ten thousand taels to buy a female slave?

She immediately sucked up to Lou Qingwu and presented a dagger to her.

Lou Qingwu loosened Lan Bai’s ropes for her and then passed another outfit to her.

Lan Bai wasn’t courteous and took the clothes to change in the back.

When she appeared again, she still wore a veil on her face.

Lou Qingwu didn’t tell her to take it down.

She believed that Lan Bai wouldn’t want to speak about what happened today and wouldn’t want anyone to know, so wearing a veil would lower the chances of anything impacting her in the future.

“Do you have a name?”

Lan Bai was the name she had when she was in the palace, so it definitely wasn’t the name she’d have now.

The young girl bit her lips and shook her head, “I’ve already been bought by master so master can give me a name.”

Lou Qingwu: “Then … we’ll call you Lan Bai.”

“Lan Bai?” The girl froze, staring dazedly at Lou Qingwu.

She saw the warmth in the bottom of her eyes, a light that seemed to seep through broken jade tugged at her heart.

Half a moment later, she lifted up her head proudly and high, “Good! Then I’ll be called Lan Bai in the future!”

But from Lou Qingwu’s angle, she could see Lan Bai’s reddened eyes.

She didn’t say anything before turning around, speaking a voice that didn’t reveal any emotions, “Let’s leave.”

She left first, leaving Lan Bai with some privacy and alone time to let her recover.

The days that she spent here were probably going to be a wound that would stay on her heart forever.

One day, they’d heal, and she’d let her be bright forever.

Feng Shiyi glanced at Lan Bai, alert, and he also saw the redness in her eyes.

When Lou Qingwu turned around, he also followed.

But his mind couldn’t shake off the image of that female slave’s eyes that were filled with tears.

She still held her head high up and proudly, but they also held an unbelievable amount of fragility and weakness.

These two emotions intertwined and dissolved a lot of the bias he had towards her.

Even if she was a female slave … it wasn’t a definite that she was willing to stay in that type of area.

Lou Qingwu and Feng Shiyi walked to the door and in a blink, Lan Bai also followed suit.

Her eyes were still a bit red but they’d already gone back to normal.

She nimbly walked to Lou Qingwu’s side, as she stood upright, “Master, where are we going now?”

Feng Shiyi looked at her from behind Lou Qingwu, unable to help but say, “Of course we’re going back, unless you want to stay here?”

Lan Bai glanced at Feng Shiyi.

His whole body was head to toe in black, only revealing a pair of eyes that stared at her, no matter how she looked, he didn’t have good intentions.

“What’s that got to do with you?”

Feng Shiyi didn’t think she’d respond like that and couldn’t help but widen his eyes, “How could it not be my business? If you dally the miss’ time, and master can’t find her, and becomes anxious, then what would I do?”

“Aye, so what you’re saying is that master shouldn’t have bought me?”

Feng Shiyi choked.

He looked at her round black eyes, grumbling, “I didn’t mean it like that.”

He’d only said so carelessly, how could she be so hard to serve?

Aye, he shouldn’t have said anything.

Lou Qingwu saw the usually calm and cool Feng Shiyi actually suffer for once and let them spar.

Especially when she saw how lively and fresh Lan Bai was, the pain in her heart lessened quite a bit.

“Let’s go, we’ll first see someone and then leave here.”

Lan Bai probably didn’t want to stay here so after getting the painting and Youli sword, she’d leave as soon as possible.

Lan Bai glared hatefully at Feng Shiyi before snorting and swaggering behind Lou Qingwu.

This made Feng Shiyi so angry that he had to take a moment to settle down before slowly following them.

A good man wouldn’t fight with a woman, so he definitely wouldn’t lower himself to the standard of a naive and little girl like her!

TL note:

Feng Shiyi and Lan Bai have more development than Feng Yege and LQW. I want a complaints line.

(He does appear a lot later, after LQW takes her revenge and mostly kills off the people she doesn’t like. I’m on the fence with how independent and strong LQW is.)

Leave a comment and follow to see if we can meet Feng Yege again or do we have to make an appointment xx
