“Hmm.”
Nodding, Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui exchanged an eye contact, then walked to and fro in front of those women. After a few rounds, Ling Jingxuan stopped in front of a woman about the same height as him, head down and trembling, “Raise your head.”
She attracted his attention because she did not have the odors that other women had, and it was not like she was faking her trembling.
The woman subconsciously made a shake, a drop of crystal ear dropped on the back of her hand, after quite a while, she made a sniffle and lifted her head, a dirty oval face, not so pretty, at least, Ling Jingxuan thought she was even not as pretty as Ling Yun. But this woman had the lingering beauty. The longer you looked at her, the pretty you thought she was. And her long and slim figure added extra points to her. The most important thing was her teary eyes were not that coquettish like other women, but he only read horror and fear in them.
“What is your name? How old are you?”
Looking at her eyes, Ling Jingxuan asked with a deep voice. It should be this woman.
“My…my name is Liu Chunyu. I am twenty-four years old.”
A slice of naked humiliation flashed across her eyes, but soon she pressed it down, and persuaded herself to answer him.
“Well, Guarantor Liu, can you find me a separate room, I want to talk with her alone.”
Nodding, Ling Jingxuan turned back to Guarantor Liu, for some things, he must tell her clearly alone, although women with slave registration in this society basically had no right of choice, he still felt that he should get her approval first. Nothing forcibly done is going to be agreeable So he was no interested of buying someone who wouldn’t listen to his order.
“No problem, come with me.”
Guarantor Liu was a straightforward person. After throwing Liu Chunyu a meaningful look, Ling Jingxuan turned to leave with Yan Shengrui. Gritting her teeth, Liu Chunyu hesitated for a bit and finally, under others’ jealous eyes, she followed them out, even if she’d suffer humiliation, she was also clear that she’d end up even worse if she kept staying here.
“Liu Chunyu, right? Sit. I have a few private questions to ask you.”
After going into the arranged room, Ling Jingxuan who was sitting at the table pouted his lips, signaling her to sit on his opposite side. Liu Chunyu timidly looked at them, and did not really sit down, instead, she moved before them and said respectfully, “I dare not. My lords, just tell me what you want from me.”
Sensible, obedient…Ling Jingxuan was quite satisfied. After exchanging an eye contact with Yan Shengrui, he continued, “Next I may ask you something awkward, but I must confirm if you are the one I need. So I hope you wouldn’t mind. Meanwhile, I can guarantee you that if you make me satisfied, even if you can’t live that kind of extravagant life, you will live an abundant and peaceful life in the future. Of course, on the premise that you behave.”
“I understand.”
Liu Chunyu obediently replied. It looked like she had accepted her fate, her hands hanging on both sides were quietly clenched, and she kept telling herself that she had to endure with it for she was a slave.
“Why were you sold here?”
It was not that he was not aware of her unwillingness and feeling humiliated. Ling Jingxuan just asked quietly. That was the big background thing, and he didn’t want to change anything. Besides, even in the 21st century when everyone was equal, the rich people always had a higher position, didn’t they? Although many people did not want to admit it, it didn’t mean it wasn’t a fact, let alone in such a hierarchical system. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Of course, the most important reason was that the other side was not worth him to change it. Today, if it were him or his little buns were for sale, even if it had to sacrifice his wife, he would try to change the big environment, and climb to the top. Don’t say that he was indifferent or what. No one would risk his life to someone irrelevant, including him.
“I…”
This came finally. As Liu Chun opened her mouth, tears were about to fall again. She desperately held them back and tried to stay calm, “I was a maid of Lord Sun in the next door town. Last year, after Lord Sun got drunk, he rap…and since then, Lord Sun kept harassing me secretly. I couldn’t take it and meant to ask the madam to hold justice for me. But, Lord Sun who is afraid of his wife said he meant to marry me as his concubine. The madam who is jealous sold me while the lord went out to collect the rents.”
That was why women with slavery registration was so sad. They basically had no ability to fight. With a little resistance, they’d only sink deeper. If she had a bigger heart and firmly grasped the heart of the master and then went to talk with the madam, perhaps she was already bedecked and firmly held her position as a concubine.
“So you didn’t want to be a concubine?”
Ling Jingxuan slightly picked his eyebrow. A concubine of Lord Sun and his second uncle’s concubine, apparently the former was better. So it seemed not easy to convince her.
“Although I am a maid, I never dreamed of being a concubine of the lord , I only want to live a peaceful and quiet life.”
Lowering her eyes, Liu Chunyu said as calmly as she could. She’d rather be the wife of a poor family than a concubine of a rich family. As a maid in those big families since she was little, she had witnessed too many tragedies of those mistresses.
“Really? If I ask you to seduce a man and make him marry you as a concubine, surely you wouldn’t agree?”
When he said those words, his long and narrow phoenix eyes stared at her without even blinking, and wouldn’t let go of any trace of subtle expression change on her face.
Liu Chunyu felt a big shock, her face instantly was full of despair. So she still couldn’t escape from it?
