Chapter 40 (2/2)

Gu Bailu laughed and touched her head. “What a silly girl. You need me to give you things even in your dream.”

“Of course I need you to give them to me, my lady.”

“Fine, whatever you want. I’ll give them to you if I have them.”

Ah Luo asked in delight, “Really? Will you give me everything I want, my lady?”

“Yes, whatever it is.” She would give her life away if Ah Luo asked for it.

Ah Luo suddenly hugged her. “I know you’re the best, my lady.”

The door opened at that moment. A girl in pink walked in and laid two bowls of rice on the ground. “Don’t starve.”

“How long are you going to keep us locked in here?” Gu Bailu hurried to ask.

The girl stopped and glanced at her. “Depending on when you want to die. If you want to die sooner, I can satisfy your wish right now.”

Gu Bailu frowned. Why did the woman hate her?

She had done nothing more than see Shao Di’s face. Did they have to be so hostile?

“Go away already. I haven’t lived enough yet.”

The girl didn’t say anything and simply left after shutting the door.

“My lady! It’s Snow Goddess Fruit!” Ah Luo exclaimed, holding the tray.

There were two bowls of rice on the tray as well as two white fruits. They were the size of plums and had a pleasant fragrance.

“That’s exactly what Snow Goddess Fruit looked like in my dream.” Ah Luo took a bite of the fruit. “It tastes just as delicious, too.”

Gu Bailu’s lips twitched. She had seen such fruit on the table in the pavilion where Shao Di had been playing chess before.
