âItâs my business if the City Lord blames me. Move aside,â the second butler said impatiently. Hmph! He couldnât let his credit be snatched away by the third butler!
âNo, I donât know their identities yet, so we canât let them in,â the Third Butler and his subordinates blocked the door and said loudly.
âWe wonât enter since you wonât let us in. Letâs go!â Leng Ruoxue turned to the freak and the others. Then she said to the second butler, âSecond butler, looks like your status in the Wu family doesnât amount to much!â
After speaking, Leng Ruoxue led the freak and the others to prepare to leave. However, she was stopped by the anxious Second Butler after taking two stepsâ¦
Leng Ruoxue raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the Second Butler with slight dissatisfaction. âSecond Butler, whatâs the meaning of this? They donât let us in, and you donât let us go. Could it be that you want us to camp outside the City Lordâs Mansion?â
âNo⦠No, I want to invite you in,â the second butler said anxiously. What a joke! He waited on the streets for the entire night just to trick this stunning beauty into entering the City Lordâs Mansion. How could he let her go! Wouldnât everything he did be in vain then?
âBut the Third Butler wonât let us in? Forget it, letâs not make things difficult for you. We wonât disturb you anymore,â Leng Ruoxue said very understandingly.
âYou canât leave. Donât forget why youâre here. If you leave, your innocence wonât be washed away,â the second butler reminded. What he implied was that if you left, I would blame you for the fall of the city wall.
âAlas! But the third bulter is blocking the door like a dog!â Leng Ruoxue said awkwardly.
âItâs okay. Donât worry about him. Iâm number two in the City Lordâs Mansion. He has to listen to me,â the second butler said confidently.
âOh.â Leng Ruoxue nodded with relief, thinking, Youâre quite silly.
Immediately after, Leng Ruoxue heard the two butlers of the City Lordâs Mansion arguing.
âDamn it, move aside quickly. Iâm bringing them to see the City Lord,â the second butler roared at the top of his lungs.
âNot just anyone can enter our City Lordâs Mansion. Moreover, I suspect that they were the ones who shattered our door, soâ¦â The Third Butler said calmly, and he stopped mid-sentence. Hmph! Donât think that he didnât know the Second Butlerâs little thoughts and wanted him to let him go easily without giving him some benefits. No way.
âThird Butler, youâre mistaken! We didnât deliberately break the door of your City Lordâs Mansion. Thatâs obviously because your door has been neglected for a long time and the quality is no longer good, so it shattered with a light knock. You canât blame us! Hey! Second Butler was also there at that time, he knew the situation best,â Leng Ruoxue explained. Well! She couldnât let this shifty-eyed Third Butler wrong them.
âYes, thatâs indeed the case.â The second butler nodded because he really didnât see how much strength the two bears used. The door shattered like paper. He was a little skeptical at one point, but there was no evidence that the door was deliberately broken by the two bears. More importantly, his goal was to bring Leng Ruoxue to see the patriarch, so these small things were nothing. The door could be repaired if it was broken. Where could he find this stunning beauty if she escaped!
âIn that case, the destruction of the main gate of our City Lordâs Mansion is indeed related to you!â The third butler smiled proudly, his small eyes staring at the second butler intently, his eyes clearly saying âI want benefitsâ.
âItâs not impossible to say so, but this can only be considered an accident!â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile, her beautiful face without the slightest fear.
âHmph! I donât care if itâs an accident or not. I only know that the door to the City Lordâs Mansion is broken, soâ¦â the Third Butler said fiercely, but he only spoke halfway.
âThird Butler, I have something to tell you.â The second butler was very helpless seeing Third Brother being so stubborn. Alas! He was the one responsible for the safety of the mansion! He would also be in the wrong if this matter blew up in front of the City Lord! It seemed like it was impossible for him to monopolize the credit. Boohooâ¦
The Third Butler hurriedly walked to him after hearing what the Second Butler said. Then the two of them came to the corner and whisperedâ¦
After a while, the two butlers, who had already negotiated the conditions, walked to Leng Ruoxue and the others together. Then the third butler said reluctantly, âHmph! Enter on the account that Second Butler spoke up for you!â
âThird Butler, youâre not a good dog!â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile. Then she swaggered into the City Lordâs Mansion with the freak and the others.
Not a good dog? What did that mean? The three butlers stood rooted to the ground like fools, unable to understand for a long time.
âHehe, everyone, Iâll arrange a place for you to stay first!â The second butler smiled charmingly and said ingratiatingly. This was his future benefactor! Therefore, he had to do more pleasing work before she flew to the top.
âThank you, Second Butler,â Leng Ruoxue said politely.
âNo trouble, no trouble!â the second butler said with a smile.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After speaking, he brought Leng Ruoxue and the others to a yard.
Upon reaching the yard, Leng Ruoxue glanced at the wordsâ Peony Garden âwritten at the entrance of the yard and walked in directly.
âEveryone, are you satisfied here?â The second butler asked with a smile. This Peony Garden was one of the best courtyards in the City Lordâs Mansion. Usually, only esteemed guests were qualified to stay here. However, he believed that the City Lord would not blame him for letting this stunning beauty stay here.
âNot bad,â Leng Ruoxue said with satisfaction. Then she raised her beautiful eyes to size up the environment in front of her. Well, the yard was indeed not bad. There were about ten guest rooms, each exquisite and luxurious. The garden of the yard was full of peony flowers, and there were many precious varieties among them. It seemed like the Wu family wanted this peony court to live up to its name!
âHehe, itâs good that everyone is satisfied. Iâll take my leave first,â the second butler said very politely and then left the place like his butt was on fire.
Lin Yuan asked in puzzlement after seeing the second butler leave, âMiss, didnât he suspect that we collapsed the city wall and brought us to the City Lord for judgment? He actually arranged for us to stay in such a good place?â
