1026: Chapter 1026: Xiaohei Pleads (33) 1026: Chapter 1026: Xiaohei Pleads (33) Several people immediately looked up in surprise.
âI dressed as a man for convenience,â Yang Ruxin said with a smile, âI didnât expect to cause such a misunderstandingâŠâ
âYoung masterâŠ
No, Miss, this servantâŠâ Du Man had only just noticed that there were piercing holes on Yang Ruxinâs ears, which immediately put her at ease, but at the same time, she felt a bit anxious and hurriedly moved to kneel down.
âYou did well,â Yang Ruxin interrupted, raising her hand, then turned and left the Human Trafficking Agency.
If Du Man had immediately followed her, Yang Ruxin might have had some doubts about the otherâs character.
âGo, take good care of Miss,â Du Chengfeng, who had regained some strength after taking the Medicine Pill, nodded to his daughter, âDonât worry about usâŠâ
Du Man nodded and quickly followed Yang Ruxin out of the Human Trafficking Agency.
Unexpectedly, Yu Qingge did not show up that evening, the employee said the owner had something to do and didnât come back, so Yang Ruxin didnât ask any further questions.
The challenge on the second day wasnât filled with suspense; Xiaohei successively defeated three eagles, leading the next two to forfeit.
âSis, this is your prize money.â Hao Fatty excitedly went to collect eighty thousand Silver, then very honestly brought it over.
âDidnât we agree youâd get a ten percent cut?â Yang Ruxin looked at the eight silver notes of ten thousand taels each, directly took one out, and stuffed it into his hand, âLetâs not bother with the change.â
âThank you, Sister Xin,â Hao Fatty beamed, his eyes almost disappearing; in fact, he had made over a hundred thousand taels by betting on his own victory, so he really hadnât thought about taking a portion of the winnings.
âKeep it,â Yang Ruxin said as she stuffed the remaining seventy thousand taels worth of silver notes into Du Manâs bosom.
Du Man was startled.
Even when she was the young lady of the Du Family, she had never handled so much moneyâŠ
She also felt a warmth in her heart; this meant the young lady trusted her, planned to cultivate her as a confidant.
She would certainly not disappoint her, after allâŠ
years of vicissitudes had made her see through the worldâs coldness.
She was no longer the former young lady of the Du Family; she knew the meaning of a trusted maid.
Initially, she had two such confidants, but one betrayed her and was killed by her hand, while the other was murdered while protecting herâŠ
Just by the mere fact that the young lady was willing to buy her familyâs freedom, she was resolved to be the young ladyâs trusted protector for life!
Since the event ended early and they were reluctant to stay in a place like the Eagle Fighting Arena any longer, they prepared to leave.
But Xiaohei seemed a bit excited, constantly rubbing against Yang Ruxinâs leg as if unwilling to leave the place.
âWhatâs wrong with it?â Hao Fatty asked, looking at Xiaohei curiously.
After these few days of bonding, he had grown extremely fond of Xiaohei, even wishing to claim it as his ownâof course, that was merely wishful thinking.
âHe wants to take me somewhere,â Yang Ruxin didnât entertain the fatty but glanced at Gu Qingheng, then followed Xiaohei down a side path.
The further they walked, the more desolate it got, and even some bones started appearing by the roadsideâthis was probably a graveyard.
Thankfully, it was winter, so there was no unpleasant smell.
Xiaohei stopped on a withered tree.
Beneath that withered tree was a newly dug pit, within which lay some recently deceased eagles.
âYou want me to save them?â Yang Ruxin looked up at Xiaohei, âBut theyâre already deadâŠâ
Xiaohei cried out twice, then flew down and pulled out three eagles from the pile, placing them to the side.
These three still twitched their legs from time to time, and among them was the earlier number eight.
