Chapter 101
Chu Li pushed the door open and entered the courtyard of the Garden of Jade He could feel the pores of his body suddenly expand as the spiritual energy of the Glory's Will Tree entered his body The feeling was like a waterfall cleaning his spiritual energy and all the stress that he had built up fro had been washed away
Xue was in a white gown, growing under the ant as a crane's
”Master”
She stopped
”Just continue, no need to care abouthis hand
”I'll prepare so for you She was in a rush,” Xue said
”What happened?”
”She didn't tell me, but she was in a real hurry”, Xue shook her head
Chu Li nodded
He knew that if it was very urgent, Su Ru would know that he was returning and she would have immediately s for supper”
”Okay”
Xue agreed and went to prepare a pot of tea She then gracefully walked into the kitchen
Chu Li gently took a sip of tea The aroans and he felt coreat to finally be hooas floating about Su Ru gently moved in and entered the paGoda and took a seat opposite Chu Li
Chu Li passed the pot of tea, sent?”
Su Ru took the white jade teacup and fiercely rolled her eyes at him
”You're quite reliable!”
”What happened?” asked Chu Li
”It's about the Second Lady!” exclaio over there?”
”By tomorrow!” scoffed Su Ru
”If you had returned one day later, ould've been late!”
”The Second Lady has a lot of Protectors There'd be no difference with or without me” Chu Li s guys up there have no worries, there is no point you carry out their job for therily replied
Chu Li put down the teacup and with a serious tone in his voice asked, ”Is this errand very iht for it and if you really delayed or rily stared at him
Chu Li looked at her, confused
Normally, the Second Lady had many Protectors with her There would be no difference with or without hi experience
Su Ru rolled her eyes and scoffed, ”The Second Lady and Lady Siao are different”
Chu Li nodded as he was in deep thought
Master Siao and the Second Lady were the children of the Great Madam They were both from the same parents However, the Third Lady was the child of the Third Madam and the Forth Master was the child of the Second Madam Lady Siao shi+'s status was more precious because of her mother's status as the Great Madam
To add to that, the Second Lady was far s ere in great health She was extremely weak and could not even cultivate which naturally iven extra care and attention
”If you can get the Second Lady to set her eyes on you, it would definitely secure you a higher and stronger position” Su Ru said to Chu Li
”I appreciate Lady Siao's effort” Chu Li said
”Hmph! You're fifth in rank, but you still joined the Public House too late, and you're so young as well It is difficult for Lady Siao to proh experience”, Su Ru scoffed
”However, if the Second Lady thinks highly of you, it would be easier for Lady Siao to proht that the Second Lady affected Master Siao hly of him, it would have directly affected Master Siao's impression of him which would really reduce his obstacles
”Chief, will the Second Lady depart toently took a sip of tea and elegantly put down the teacup
”The Second Lady wanted to celebrate Grand Secretary Kang's birthday We're going to Zhao Jing Hai Town”
”Zhao Jing Hai Town…” muttered Chu Li
”That's not a safe place It's full of Hu Ren Public House's people They'll definitely attack us!”
”I don't think they will Lady Siao is the one Lu Yurong is looking for It has nothing to do with Second Lady” Su Ru said as she shook her head
”Is that what Lady Siao thinks?”
Chu Li furrowed his brows
Su Ru put down her teacup
”Is there a problem?”
”It's different now Both our Public Houses has already burned the bridge They're sure to attack us if they have the chance!” Chu Li said
”Second Lady is not a menace to them She doesn't know martial arts and doesn't care about the problems of the Public House She's detached from the world Why would they want to hurt her and ain
”If they hurt the Second Lady, Master Siao will definitely go crazy and both the Public Houses will go into an all-out war Both sides will suffer in the end Not even Lu Yurong would dare to do it!”
Chu Li shook his head
”They had suffered quite the huge loss last tie” Su Ru said as she frowned
”My guess is that Lu Yurong will not kill the Second lady but ht kidnap her and want Master Siao to pay ransom for her release What would happen if Master Siao complied with their demands? Wouldn't this weaken the morale of the Public House?” asked Chu Li
Su Ru frowned again
