“Ugh….” Zhu Xiangyu’s expression froze, but quickly he smiled at heragain, “Well, Xiao Xiao, that’s hard to say. I might have agreed with yourstatement this morning, but now, I think there are something that’s worth meguarding!”
After saying that that, his shiney eyes looked straight at her prettyface with burning pa.s.sion!
If he have done this to any other normal girl, having such a young andtalented man professed his fondness to her. She would probably be sky andecstatic.
However, the one he was doing it to was Cheng Xiao Xiao. In her oldworld, she had heard all sorts of proclamation of love. His subtle suggestionwas nothing compare to those!
She looked coldly at him for a while before she said, “If there’snothing else, I suggest young Mr. Zhu Xiangyu to take off. Things are hecticaround here right now; it’s really not a great place for entertainment!”
Having said that, she turned and walked out of the bamboo forest anddidn’t pay more attention to his reaction.
The smile on Zhu Xiangyu froze. He couldn’t believe what he had justheard. Staring dumbfounded at her back, he couldn’t speak another word.
His trick had worked every other time, so why did it fail this time?
At this moment, Zhu Xiangyu looked at this maiden of the Cheng’s in awhole new light. At the same time, he noticed that he was developing more andmore interest in her.
“Young Mistress, Zhu Xiangyu is fond of you now!”
Little Yuteng’s voice rang next to her ear, Cheng Xiao Xiao pulledback the corners of her mouth and asked, “How is it that you think everybodyhas a thing for me? You got anything new to say?”
“Because that’s what it looks like, Young Mistress. But this one isnot as fun as that genius mathematician!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao heard her words right when she was walking out of thebamboo forest. She slowed down, gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t bring upthat jerk in front of me!”
“I wonder if that genius mathematician will be able to locate YoungMistress?”
“Shut up!”
“Young Mistress, if I have to guess, he will be here soon!”
“Shut up! When did you become so gossipy? What’s going on with thedimension?”
Since she had walked out of the bamboo forest, there weren’t anyplaces that she could take cover in order to flash into the dimension. Not tomention that there were a bunch of people waiting around in the house trying tofigure out their secret. She didn’t want words about the dimension to get out.
“Young Mistress, there were simply too many items. The dimension isstill sorting it all out; we can’t tell how many levels it will go up just yet.But, I think we will at least get to level 50!”
Little Yuteng’s voice was full of excitement when talking about thedimension, and just like that, Cheng Xiao Xiao had successfully changed thesubject.
“Good, you keep an eye out and let me how many level it went up afterward!” Cheng Xiao Xiao was feeling hopeful too.
“Okay!”
While they were chatting, they had walked in front of a series ofrooms. All these rooms were for the accommodation of the workers. It has beenover a month since the construction began and all these rooms were ready to bemoved in.
As soon as she arrived to this side of the structure, she sawInnkeeper Zhu walking out of one of the rooms. A smile appeared on his slightlychubby face when he say Cheng Xiao Xiao and he said, “Miss Cheng, it has been awhile. So glad you are back!”
“It’s has only been half a month!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao. She lookedat the man who seemed to have gained another round of weight and said, “Thankyou for all your help during this time.”
“Ah, that is no problem, Miss Cheng!”
With a careful smile, Innkeeper Zhu said, “Miss Cheng, if you have amoment, I’d like to discuss with you the status of the servants!”
“Sure! I was just about to ask you as well!”
“Miss Cheng, we now have 14maids and 20 houseboys. After a month of training, they are in too standingsnow. But I feel that 4 of the maids and 7 of the houseboys aren’t very suitableworking for a big family!”
