Chapter 114
Ah Shi looked at the man who took the tray and grinned at him, and immediately drew the dagger from his waist.
"A share?"
"Okay!"
The thirteen servants gathered on the top floor and were very curious when they saw what was on the tray.
This person is indeed very rare in the world, and it is not someone that servants like them can touch.
Bai Yi was still a little conflicted. He watched as Ten and Fourteen lifted the curtain, causing the other brothers to exclaim in surprise. He hesitated for a moment and finally spoke out to stop them, "The Human Face Fruit is a precious health product exclusively for famous families. If we do this and get discovered, the host..."
"Brother! It's okay. I asked for one more on purpose! They won't bother to check if there's only one!" Ah Shi looked at the four flesh-pink fruits on the plate with a smile, "Which one do you want to pick?"
Jiu looked at the largest one on the plate, and his smile deepened when he heard this.
"Brothers, pick this one! This one is the biggest and there is enough for us to share." After saying that, he took Ah Shi's dagger and cut it without waiting for everyone to respond.
After a scream, juice splashed everywhere.
The ripe human-faced fruit has an indescribable fragrance that makes people drool.
Now even Bai Yi, who had always been diligent, honest and old-fashioned, stopped talking.
They each got a small piece, and Jiu wiped his hands and picked the smallest piece.
Ah Shi took a bite without hesitation in front of his brothers, and then exclaimed with satisfaction.
Jiu looked at everyone eating the fruit flesh bite by bite. Some even licked the juice flowing from their palms unsatisfiedly. He felt extremely happy in his heart.
After everyone finished eating, Bai Yi looked at the small piece of human-faced fruit still in his hand and asked in confusion: "Lao Jiu, why don't you eat it?"
"Brothers, how does this human noodle fruit taste?"
Seeing everyone's nostalgic and admiring eyes, Jiu smiled and nodded, biting off the red crescent mark on the skin of the human-faced fruit.
Delicious will do.
After all, this is a human-faced fruit specially prepared for you, and it must leave the deepest impression in your hearts.
After everyone returned to their respective posts, Jiu and Shisi went downstairs side by side. On the way, Shisi's eyes fell on the busy young maid in Tianshui Tower.
"Brother Jiu, if women don't like jewelry, what would they like?"
Ah Jiu was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to realize something and laughed out loud, "Are you moved? Luo Yue is amazing! She was able to make you change your mind, could it be that she used her honey trap on you?"
Fourteen narrowed his narrow fox eyes and stopped talking.
"By the way, why hasn't the landlord come to Tianshui Tower recently? There are many matters here that need the landlord's decision."
Fourteen was in a daze, and subconsciously answered after hearing this:
"The host has already gone out and won't be back for a while."
"He went out? How come I didn't know?"
"Only my elder brother and the others know about it, but it doesn't matter. We can still help Tianshui Building run smoothly on behalf of the building manager."
"..."
Inside the Mirror Flower and Water Moon Pavilion.
Zhe Ye was holding a portrait and observing it carefully. Lin Ruofan, dressed as a maid, was serving him soup. Looking at the table full of delicious food, Lin Ruofan was deeply moved.
The life of the rich is so luxurious! It’s as luxurious as the 108-course imperial meal.
Out of the corner of her eye, Lin Ruofan saw the beautiful woman in the portrait, wearing a plain white dress and with her hair tied up. She didn't quite understand ancient portraits, but she felt that the colors used were just right, and that the woman was dressed in plain colors but had distinct layers and was very beautiful.
Zhe Ye looked deep and caressed the portrait in silence for a long time.
It took so long that the food was almost cold. Lin Ruofan looked at the bowl of soup that was no longer emitting heat, picked it up and poured it back into the casserole to stir it.
“What’s this for?” Zhe Ye finally withdrew his gaze from the painting, and while rolling up the painting, he squinted at Lin Ruofan, “I don’t drink this kind of hot and cold soup!”
"My handsome boy, if you keep watching, you won't have to eat or drink anymore."
"Why, you're impatient now? If you have such a short patience, don't blame me for not finding a sister for you!"
"It doesn't matter, as long as she is alive and well, I can always stay with you if I really can't help it!"
Zhe Ye looked at her as if he was looking at a child who was talking nonsense.
"You're not hungry, but I haven't eaten a single bite!" Lin Ruofan covered her flat belly and complained about the labor pressure during the night shift. "I have to get up in the middle of the night to make you a midnight snack. I don't get enough sleep!"
As she spoke, her stomach began to growl in cooperation.
Zhe Ye:……
"I don't want to eat anymore, you eat these!"
"Row!"
After a delicious meal, Lin Ruofan went out contentedly. When he reached the corner, Lin Ruofan looked back at Zhe Ye's closed door.
She had long noticed that there was another person in the room. She had been on the beam for so long that her scalp was numb, so she quickly finished her meal and ran away!
Inside the house, Yun turned over, took out a note and handed it to Zhe Ye.
"Not here?"
"Yes, Xiao Mo was also kept in the dark for a long time before he found out. Master, our time has come!"
Zhe Ye looked at the portrait in his hand, closed his eyes, raised his head and sighed deeply.
Yun also saw the paper that Zhe Ye was holding in his hand, and a trace of pity flashed across his eyes. Seeing Zhe Ye so sad, he couldn't help but speak to comfort him.
"Master, the spirit of the lady in heaven will surely be happy for you! His Baili family is destined to ..."
However, Zhe Ye's face turned cold.
"Who gave you permission to talk like that?"
Yun quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "Master, what do you mean?"
"Wait a little longer. When that bastard comes back, I'll notify Xiao Mo to take action!"
Just when Zhe Ye was about to tidy himself up, he suddenly heard several people talking at the door. Listening carefully, it seemed that the madam was trying to please someone.
The next second, the door was gently pushed open.
The madam fanned and waved her hand flatteringly, calling for Zhe Ye to come and serve her.
"Sister Murong, you haven't come to talk to me for a long time!" Zhe Ye's charming face was full of grievance. He covered his eyes with his long sleeves and was about to cry.
Murong Lingshuang was wearing a pastel-colored long-sleeved gown and had a long braid. She looked so different from her usual bright and flamboyant self that Zhe Ye almost couldn't recognize her. The woman sat down and ordered the servants to bring wine to the room.
Looking at the wine jars piling up higher and higher, even Zhe Ye couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"How dare you say that? Zhe Ye, you've been so busy lately. I have to wait in line to get you to serve me!"
"Sister, please don't make fun of me. I am like a floating duckweed. If it weren't for your and everyone's pity, I don't know where I would end up!" After saying this, she bowed again, looking so fragile that it seemed like it would break if touched.
Murong looked at this tearful beauty, and felt a pang of sadness in his heart. She was younger than his brother, but she had to go through so much. How pitiful.
Although she wanted to save him from the dire situation, the courtesan Jinghua Shuiyue was special and even she couldn't touch her.
"Forget it, I won't say anything to you! I treat you as my brother, I will take good care of you in the future.
You are not allowed to receive guests," Murong poured two glasses of wine and looked at Zhe Ye very seriously.
"Tonight, we won't go home until we're drunk! Cheers!"
"Dry!
"Do it again!"
“Do it again!
"No, Zhe Ye boy, are you raising fish? Drink up the remaining fish!"
Zhe Ye covered his forehead with his hands in pain, looking at the half-open door. He wished he could just throw the drunkard out, but he couldn't. He couldn't throw away Murong Lingshuang, this chess piece.
The alcohol started to take effect, and Zhe Ye looked at her, who was drunk but still energetic, and finally couldn't resist and rushed out.
After spitting out everything, Zhe Ye rubbed his red eyes and stood up to walk towards the door, but saw Lin Ruofan standing in the corner.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhe Ye smiled, "Are you looking at me like that because I finally realize that I'm a cheap person?"
