Chapter 435 - Not An Easy Person To Fool (1/2)
Only the three of them were left inside the room --- Madam Wang's parents and Liu Li. The atmosphere turned even more serious than before. Madam Wang's father squinted his eyes at Liu Li, somehow, he didn't really believe in her explanation. He was a sly official, otherwise, how could he stay in the post for this long?
He asked in a low voice, ”Why are you still loyal to Madam Wang? Once she doesn't have her title, you won't get that many benefits from her...” Liu Li wasn't a maidservant that served her from young so she didn't have any bond with Madam Wang, so why did she do everything for Madam Wang's sake...? It didn't really make sense in his eyes.
Madam Wang's father wasn't an easy person to fool.
Liu Li sighed and looked at the man in confusion. ”Didn't Madam Wang tell you about this servant? This servant had failed to do an errand from Madam Wang which concerning the new young mistress and this servant is not in a good position myself... The young mistress doesn't like this servant... If she is the one who raises in power, this servant will certainly be in a deep problem... Thus, that's the reason why this servant wants to help Madam Wang... No... No... not want to... but have to! We are on the same boat ah~!”
Madam Wang's father squinted his eyes, trying to see whether this woman was telling the truth or not. However, he was keen to believe in this reasoning. She helped Madam Wang because it gave her more benefits. He saw a lot of this type of greedy servants so he wasn't feeling that surprised anymore.
He didn't stop there and chose to grind Liu Li over and over again about this matter, trying to find a loophole and see whether Liu Li was telling him the truth or not. Fortunately, Liu Li was an experienced person or else she would already have a breakdown by now.
”I already know. You can go back to Wang Fu and tell Ruo An that I will deal with this matter... Tell her not to worry about it,” Madam Wang's father said, dismissing Liu Li with a wave of his hand. ”I will make a plan to force Wang Luo Hai to let her go as soon as possible and restate her to her previous position. I won't let her suffer a grievance.”
Although he was greedy, he also knew how to hide his real thoughts. He looked like a caring father, however, even his wife knew him better. She was really worried about her daughter! She needed to convince her husband to fight for her daughter.
”Yes, Master...” Liu Li quickly went out of their house hastily, deliberately pretended that she was in a hurry to go back to Wang Fu.
After going out of the mansion, Liu Li sighed in relief when she turned around the corner and went out of sight. She shook her head and couldn't help but pity Madam Wang a little bit. She was preparing to go back to Wang Fu through a small alley so that no one would see her coming out from the mansion.
She thought that she had finished her job when someone was blocking her way all of a sudden. Liu Li jumped up in surprise and yelled, ”Who are you?” It was a maidservant who looked a bit younger than her and she had never seen her beforehand.
”Jie Jie... Don't be afraid! I'm here on the behalf of my miss,” the maidservant said with a sweet smile. She knew that Liu Li was scared, thus, she tried to calm her down before continuing with the thing that she wanted to talk about.
”Who is your miss? What do you want to do?” Liu Li asked in annoyance and distrust.
