Chapter 1059: Chapter 1057: Seeking a Partner
After settling Lu Xiaodie, Jadeite helped Wufu change her outfit as she talked to her.
"Miss, didnât you say that Lu Xiaodie was trouble? Why did you still agree to take her in?" Jadeite asked curiously.
"Oh, wasnât it because your soft heart wanted me to take her in? You even spoke for her!" Wufu chuckled.
Jadeite was speechless and said angrily, "Miss, it was just because you were playing tricks that I mentioned it."
"Boring!" Wufu touched her nose and said, "Keeping her might still be useful."
"Oh?"
Wufu sighed and said, "I have a feeling that I will inevitably confront Madam Wang in the future, so keeping Lu Xiaodie might be useful."
"Isnât there no evidence?"
Wufu sneered, "Evidence is something you find. Moreover..." she raised her fist and said, "In the face of real power, evidence isnât needed!"
Jadeite exclaimed, alright, youâre fierce!
"If sheâs not stupid, sheâll make herself useful, so I could have someone capable by my side. If sheâs truly stupid, having another maid on the estate is no big deal; itâs just about whether sheâs worth it!" Wufu said.
"Letâs hope she understands your intentions, Miss. A master like you is rare! Meeting you is her lucky break; otherwise, who knows where sheâd be crying right now!" Jadeite said huffily.
"Haha, someoneâs been spreading sweets on her words!" Wufu stood up, pinched her face.
"Miss!" Jadeite stomped her foot playfully, saying, "Canât you stop acting like a Profligate Young Master? Do you really not want me to follow you?"
"Looking like this, itâs better you donât follow!" Wufu pointed at her male attire, saying, "With your Sister Zi Yu not here, youâll have to take care of this house. Teach the ones brought back yesterday the rules early, and youâll ease up sooner!"
Jadeite instantly pulled a wretched face.
"Good girl, this Young Master is off!" Wufu patted her shoulder and walked out dashingly, leaving Jadeite with a look of resentment and casting a longing gaze after her.
...
Riches Gambling House.
Wufu was led to the highest level, where the stone gambling took place, and sat down, taking a sip of tea, she clicked her tongue in awe.
Back then, her first time at Riches Gambling House was playing dice in the smoky lower level, now she returned, directly led to the top tier area.
"Well, I thought Young Master Xiao Wu had forgotten the way to my doors, didnât even know you could arrive."
A teasing voice came from behind Wufu.
Turning around, it was the ever snowy-white dressed Master Gui entering, his hair loose, with Ah Qi still following him.
"Young Master Xiao Wu." Ah Qi cupped his fists to Wufu, then to Chi San five-six behind her, as a form of greeting.
"Master Gui, Guard Ah Qi." Wufu returned the gesture with a smile to Master Gui, saying, "Things have been a bit busy lately, otherwise I wouldâve visited earlier. Master Gui looks healthier now, truly great joy."
Master Gui laughed and said, "Thanks to fortune, Iâm still alive!"
Wufu didnât stay on that topic, but handed over the poker cards promised earlier to Master Gui: "As once promised to Master Gui, delivering personally!"
Master Gui, somewhat curious, opened it for a glance at the exquisite cards, still unhurried, saying, "Surely, youâre not here just to deliver these?"
"Indeed, nothing escapes Master Gui. I have some other matters." Wufu laughed and said, "Master Gui knows, Iâve come into a sum of Silver, and I wanted to discuss cooperation with you."
