2319 Bloodline Resonance (2)
“Eldest Brother, what are you looking at?” The round-faced girl skipped over to the man’s side with a giggle.
So strange, her eldest brother was basically goggling at that carriage.
*Ba-dump, ba-dump!*
That man seemed to hear his heart beating like a drum, and the blood in his body started boiling unfathomably. It was like it was clamoring with all its might to get closer to that carriage!
Why?
He had never experienced such a bizarre feeling before…
It wasn’t until the man heard his younger sister’s calls that he regained his senses.
He turned around. He was around 20 years old, and was tall, with long and defined brows. His eyes swept toward the girl like cold lightning, and he knitted his brows upon seeing the tearful woman behind her.
“Who is she?”
The young girl was likely used to her brother’s indifference, and she smiled without minding at all. “Eldest Brother, her name is Xiao He. She’s my new maidservant.”
The man obviously had no interest in knowing who Xiao He was. He merely glanced coldly at Xiao He’s blushing expression that was tinged with tears. A hint of annoyance passed through his mind.
“We didn’t come out to play this time. You’re sure she can go to the Eight Barren Mountains?”
The round-faced young girl hesitated.
She hadn’t thought that far when she saved Xiao He earlier. She had just acted upon righteous ardor and rescued the woman.
With her brother’s reminder, she also found it unsuitable.
After all, they were going to go to the Eight Barren Mountains, which was a dangerous place. It was indeed a burden to bring along someone with no means of protecting herself.
However, since she had rescued the other party, she couldn’t just randomly toss her away and leave like this.
After contemplating, the situation was indeed not that fitting.
The round-faced young girl looked hesitantly at Miss Xiao He and asked while pursing her mouth, “How about you stay in this town for now?”
Xiao He of course was not willing!
She had finally caught hold of a rich daughter of a patrician family and had the opportunity to leave this border town. She would rise steadily up to the top.
How could she allow herself to continue staying in this god-forsaken place?
She would definitely regret it if she didn’t take firm hold of this opportunity!
Xiao He sobbed as she looked at the round-faced young girl. “My lady, please take me with you. I absolutely cannot stay in this town.
“My brother and sister-in-law are gambling addicts. If I cannot leave with you this time, they will not let me off come tomorrow. They will catch me and not take this lying down. They will sell me into the brothel again for spirit stones.
“Please be merciful and bring me with you!” Xiao He beseeched bitterly.
The young girl looked at her brother. “Eldest Brother, since’s she so pitiful, let’s just bring her along.
“She told me just now that she can cook. When we enter the Eight Barren Mountains, we can hunt mystic beasts and have her cook for us. Then we won’t have to eat dry food every day!”
That young man looked sharply at Miss Xiao He.
It spooked Xiao He into prostrating on the floor and kowtowing to the man. “Xiao He will definitely not become a burden to everyone. Please take me in, Young Sir! Please take me in!”
After saying this, she kowtowed nonstop.
