Chapter 102: Beside Worship, It’s Still Worship
“Don’t be so restrained, Xia Zhouyi. Just call me Ling Chuxi.” With a smile, Ling Chuxi took out the red Blood Wolf’s egg and presented it to Xia Zhuoyi. “This is for you. Don’t refuse it. Your Uncle Zhong was the one who gave it to me as a thank you. Now, I am giving it to you. You will be a good master to this monster beast.”
Xia Zhuoyi was stunned. He never imagined that the monster beast egg was actually obtained by Uncle Zhong. Additionally, he never would have thought that Ling Chuxi would be willing to give away something so precious. He and Ling Chuxi didn’t seem to have much of a friendship, and if one had to press the matter, it could be said that he owed her two not-very small favors. With all this in mind, how could he accept such a precious gift without feeling ashamed?
“I’m afraid I can’t accept this...” Xia Zhuoyi shook his head to decline the offer but was immediately interrupted by Ling Chuxi.
“Xia Zhuoyi, two Blood Wolves died to protect their child—they died for this egg and entrusted Uncle Zhong with it. If this egg does not meet a good master, then such an act of deep affection would have been in vain. If you do not want it then I will give it to the fifth princess and she will crack it into a bowl of hot soup and drink it up,” announced Ling Chuxi seriously.
The fifth princess who stood beside Ling Chuxi, bared her teeth and lurched forward with her nails pointed outwards as she growled, “You hateful person. If you don’t want it then give it to me. I will fry it and eat it up!”
“Dream on!” huffed Xia Zhuoyi upon hearing the fifth princess’ words. He immediately snatched the Blood Wolf’s egg from Ling Chuxi and cradled it in his arms. Then, he saw Ling Chuxi grinning at him. Only then did he realize that Ling Chuxi had intentionally said such things to engineer this outcome. Right then, the fifth princess made a face at him as well. contemporary romance
“You hateful person!” called out the fifth princess as she stuck her tongue out playfully at Xia Zhuoyi. She continued speaking and this time, she apologized to Xia Zhuoyi sincerely, “I was in the wrong before. I should not have poisoned you. I won’t do it ever again in the future! I will listen to my master’s words and turn over a new leaf!”
“Huh?” Xia Zhuoyi looked at the fifth princess with a confused expression. He scratched his head sheepishly and said, “It’s all right. I’m no longer angry about it now.”
“Well then, let’s all go back. The training is finally over.” Ling Chuxi smiled and patted the little fox who was tucked into her embrace. It was time to head back to the academy to have a hot bath and rest properly. Little White was already thoroughly exhausted. The small fox had spent the majority of today sound asleep.
Indeed, Ling Chuxi’s prediction wasn’t wrong. As she entered White Stone City while making her way to her accommodation, someone held her back at the entrance of the city gate. This someone was a well-dressed middle-aged man. He greeted her with a very respectful attitude.
“Miss Ling Chuxi, I apologize for interrupting your day. May I kindly request some of your time today? My family’s master would like to meet you and have a word. He has a few matters of great importance to discuss with you. The man lowered his head and continued on in a serious manner, “Pardon my rudeness, I have yet to introduce myself. I am the Lan family’s housekeeper.”
“Someone from the Lan family really did come to meet you. Master, you are indeed a genius!” The fifth princess had already leapt forward before Ling Chuxi could say a word. Aside from the worship in her eyes for Ling Chuxi, there was only still more worship.
“Please, lead the way,” said Ling Chuxi to the Lan housekeeper calmly. She turned to address Ling Yichen, “Yichen, you guys head back first. I will return later.”
The fifth princess was eager to follow Ling Chuxi, but was pushed back by what Ling Chuxi said next. “Follow Yichen back to the academy and prepare hot water for me, obedient disciple. I’d like to take a bath once I return.”
“Will do!” chirped the fifth princess with a serious nod. All matters her master instructs her to attend to must be completed to the best of her abilities!
To date, Ling Chuxi was the first person ever to instruct the fifth princess to prepare hot water for a bath!
Right then, the Lan family’s housekeeper recognized the young maiden standing behind Ling Chuxi as the fifth princess. After hearing their conversation and seeing the fifth princess’ happy and obliging expression, the housekeeper wondered if he had bumped into some kind of ghost! This person named Ling Chuxi had just instructed the fifth princess to prepare her bathwater, and the fifth princess looked more than happy to do it!
