”You can leave first.”
Everyone hesitated for a while before returning to the broken house. Before they left, they did not forget to tell the young girl that if Lu Beiyou dared to bully her, they would shout out loudly, and even if they had to risk their lives, they would definitely rush out to protect the young girl.
After a while, only the girl and Lu Beiyou remained.
”Who are you?” The young girl asked with a trembling voice the biggest doubt in her heart.
”I'm very curious about one thing. This time, I'm only asking you a question. I don't have any intention of harming you.”
Lu Beiyou did not answer the girl's question, but for some reason, when his words reached her ears, she felt a lot more at ease.
The girl heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, ”So that's how it is, so that's how it is. ”What do you want to ask? Ask away.”
Seeing that the girl believed his words so easily, Lu Beiyou was stunned for a moment.
Seeing that Lu Beiyou was looking at her with a strange expression, the girl's face became slightly red, and she berated: ”Are you going to ask or not? I'll be leaving if you don't ask me! ”
Seeing the girl who changed her role so quickly, Lu Beiyou could only helplessly say: ”You should be the young miss of a rich family, right? Why bring them food? In your eyes, aren't they just lowly people? ”
”Nope!” As soon as Lu Beiyou finished speaking, the girl retorted loudly, her tone filled with anger.
”They are just a pitiful bunch of people. Moreover, they are all very nice and will take me to eat and play. It's not like there is no one at home to accompany me.”
The girl's tone of voice became lower and lower, and in the end she was even weaker. Lu Beiyou did not say anything, because he did not know what he should say now.
After a while, Lu Beiyou didn't ask again and only softly said: ”How about this, it's dark right now, so it's not a good time to walk on the road. ”Let's go, I'll take you home today.”
After saying that, she walked in front without looking back. Hearing Lu Beiyou's words, the girl's eyes revealed a strange light as she hurriedly followed beside Lu Beiyou.
Maybe because she saw that Lu Beiyou would not hurt her, or perhaps because their appearance and age were similar, the girl seemed to have found someone she could pour out her heart to and was talking non-stop.
Lu Beiyou did not say a word, and quietly walked to the front.
When he neared the back door, Lu Beiyou saw the old servant who had been following the girl from afar looking out.
Lu Beiyou turned his head and said to the girl: ”Regarding today's matter, you are not allowed to tell anyone in your family, including the old servant that was following you for the past few days.”
The girl's expression was somewhat unhappy as she asked doubtfully, ”Then, will I be able to see you again?”
Hearing the girl's words, Lu Beiyou was a little dazed. It was clear that in this short period of time of less than two hours, the girl had already treated him as someone she could trust.
Lu Beiyou nodded his head and said: ”If you don't tell anyone else, I will agree. I will come look for you again.”
Hearing Lu Beiyou's promise, the girl also laughed and nodded. After that, he happily ran towards the back door of his house.
When the old servant saw that the young girl had returned safely, he heaved a sigh of relief and scolded her. The young girl stuck out her tongue and pulled the old servant into the mansion through the back door.
Seeing the girl's figure gradually disappearing, Lu Beiyou's expression did indeed become grave.
What was going on? He didn't know about this in his previous life! Moreover, when those people came out of the broken house and saw him destroying the forest with a single sword strike, although they were afraid, they only took a step back.
