Chapter 255: Shen Qin is no longer enslaved
Two of them walked towards the Li Residence.
Along the way, Aqin"s face flushed red as she looked him up and down.
After hesitating for a long time, she asked cautiously, "Sir, you and that Chief Yue are…"
Li Ran said, "She"s my woman."
Aqin was willing to give her life to him, so he naturally had 100% trust in her. There was nothing to hide from her.
"Oh." Aqin nodded.
Although she did not understand why Sheng Zi Li was entangled with the Righteous Path, there was definitely a reason for him to do so.
When she thought back to the time when the two of them were hugging each other and talking to each other, her face still turned red, and her heart beat fast.
Such a valiant and heroic woman, in Li Ran"s arms, her face turned red, and her eyes blurred.
It was simply too embarra.s.sing.
Aqin sighed in her heart; I really want to be like Chief Yue and kiss and hug Sheng Zi Li!
But she was just thinking about it.
Although Li Ran was very considerate towards her, she never forgot her ident.i.ty as a maid.
The fact that Sheng Zi Li was willing to keep her was already a huge gift.
She really did not have the courage to ask for more.
Suddenly, Aqin thought of the notebook that Lu Xinran had given her.
Although the rest of the events didn"t happen, hugging and kissing can be matched. Looks like this secret manual is quite reliable. Aqin lowered her head, her mind in a mess.
Not long after, Li Ran"s voice came to his ear. "Xiao Qin, we"re home."
"Huh?" Aqin looked up blankly.
One could only see that they were standing in front of a mansion. Two stone lions in front of the gate had a solemn appearance, and the golden nails criss-crossed the vermilion-colored gate. A black plaque hung at the gate.
There were two golden words on the letter: Li Manor.
When the servant at the door saw Li Ran, he couldn"t help but be taken aback. Then, he hurriedly bowed.
"Young Master, you"re back!"
Li Ran nodded and said to Aqin, "Let"s go in."
But Aqin looked at the open door and hesitated.
Her memories here were not pleasant.
Moreover, the thought of meeting the Shen family made him even more resistant.
She did not know what kind of ident.i.ty she should use to face it.
A relative or an enemy?
At that moment, Li Ran held her cold little hand and said softly, "Don"t be afraid. I"m here."
Looking at that brilliant smile, Aqin"s gloominess dissipated.
She nodded firmly and said, "Yes, with my Lord here, Aqin is not afraid of anything."
Li Ran smiled and led her into the Li Residence.
"It"s Young Master!"
"Young Master is back!"
Servants and clan members came out to greet him and said respectfully, "Greetings, Young Master!"
They looked at Li Ran in awe and admiration.
It was because of the Young Master that the Li family had such a high status.
Now in Central City, even if it were a servant of the Li family, no one else would dare to provoke them.
As for Aqin.
No one would think of the beautiful look in her eyes as if she was Li Ran"s woman.
At that moment, a little girl dressed in jade walked over.
When she saw Li Ran, her eyes flashed with excitement. Just as she was about to walk over, her gaze was attracted to Aqin.
They were clearly a dozen years apart, but their expressions were astonishingly similar. Even their expressions were the same.
Two of them met each other"s eyes.
Although she had never seen her before, there was a kind of emotion that came from her bloodline that quietly surged.
Shen Ning was a little startled and instinctively muttered, "Sister?"
When the maid servant heard this, she quickly covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Ning"er, this is the young master"s woman. I don"t dare to shout!"
Aqin"s eyes instantly turned red.
She slowly walked in front of Shen Ning and looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar girl.
Maid hesitated for a moment before she smiled sheepishly. "The child is young and does not understand. Please don"t punish her…"
Shen Ning was quiet, but she was very precocious. She was so sensible that it made one"s heart ache.
Other than the evil butler who was crippled by Li Ran, the servants of the other maid servants all liked her very much. At this moment, they also had the courage to help her speak.
Aqin, on the other hand, turned a deaf ear and said softly, "Your name is Shen Ning?"
Mmm!
Shen Ning nodded. "Mother said that I have a sister called Shen Qin… Is it you?"
Shen Qin"s eyes were slightly red as she smiled brightly. "It"s me."
The surrounding servants were stunned.
Was she Shen Qin?
This charming woman was actually the maid of the Shen family!
Although it hadn"t been ten years, the changes were too great!
Li Ran instructed the housekeeper, "From today onwards, Shen Qin and Shen Ning"s contract for selling their bodies will be void. They will no longer be servants of the Li family. Clean up my room in the side courtyard and arrange for a few more diligent maid servants to give them."
"Yes!" The butler did not dare to have any doubts.
Hearing this, Aqin suddenly turned around and said in fear, "My Lord, I…"
Li Ran rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Don"t worry, you will always follow me."
Hearing this, Aqin heaved a sigh of relief.
Li Ran touched Shen Ning"s head again. "It"s your first time seeing each other. Go have a good chat."
"Thank you, sir." Aqin looked at him gratefully.
Under the guidance of the maids, two of them turned around and left the courtyard.
Li Ran looked at them with a smile in his eyes.
"It"s rare to see Aqin like this…"
At that moment, the housekeeper came over and asked, "Young Master, do you want to cancel the contract with the rest of the Shen family?"
Li Ran frowned. "Why?"
Housekeeper was taken aback. "Aren"t you and Miss Shen…"
"Other than Shen Qin and Shen Ning, I don"t care if the Shen family lives or dies," Li Ran said calmly. "Also, let the Shen family stay away from Shen Qin. If anyone dares to act impudently, break their legs and throw them out!"
The butler quivered and lowered his head. "Yes!"
Just as Li Ran was about to leave, a servant walked over. "Young Master, Master wants you to go to the guest hall."
He raised his eyebrows. "Who"s here?"
The servant said in a low voice, "It"s the two princesses, Flood Dragon and Jinyun."
"Them?"
Li Ran didn"t know what was on his mind. Corners of his mouth curled up, and he nodded. "Alright, I got it."
He turned around and walked towards the guest hall.
…….
In the reception hall.
Two princesses were restless and looked at the door from time to time. They looked both expectant and nervous. After a while, a tall and straight figure strode in.
"Princesses, long time no see."
They hurriedly stood up and stammered, "Li… Sheng Zi Li, long time no see."
For some reason, two of them were a little shy, their pretty faces slightly flushed.
When Li Daoyuan saw this, he couldn"t help but cover his face and sigh in his heart.
He’s really killing me!
