Next day.
Lin Xuan Qi woke up early, and as usual, a new set of clothes was ready for him by his bedside.
He washed up, changed into them, and got to the dining hall.
There were buns and porridge ready for him.
"Master Lin, eat slower." Xue Cong frowned when she saw him wolfing down the buns with just a bite.
"I... need... lots done today." He munched on the bun in his mouth and said.
After that, he picked up the teacup in front of him and downed it in a mouthful.
"Don’t worry about it. I would have ample ti on my hands after being busy for the following few days," Lin Xuan Qi said with a smile.
Once the factory and new personnel were settled, he would be able to be hands-off and enjoy his ti again.
Who wouldn’t want to enjoy their life as a young master, with so many pretty girls around him in the mansion?
Xue Cong nodded her head at him.
She was worried that he would overwork and affect his health.
It was also quite so ti since she saw him around in the mansion.
These few days, he was always busy with sothing.
Zhi Yong also nodded his head and gave a huge smile at him.
Lin Xuan Qi having ti in the mansion ant that he would be able to listen to what happens next to Sun Le in his story.
The cliffhanger was killing him for a very long ti.
Yue Jie kept quiet as she was also glad to have him around in the mansion.
She was always fascinated with his ideas that were out of this world.
The mansion would be more lively with him around.
Maybe she could sew a set of new clothes that would fit his status.
He was still wearing the clothes he had bought earlier when he didn’t have much money.
Now, he could afford sothing better and more lavish.
Her sister, on the other hand, had a different idea.
Yue Xin was thinking about learning more martial arts from him.
Their training with Liu Shi Shi helped when Su Chen and Wu Tong’s n ca to seek trouble, but it was not enough.
She needed to get stronger to avenge her father.
Unaware of what they had in mind, Lin Xuan Qi frowned when he saw them nodding their heads and smiling at him.
They must have missed so much, he thought to himself silently.
Maybe they saw the light and liked more lessons from him.
He glanced over at Liu Shi Shi, and to his surprise, she was also giving him a grin.
Coming from her, he instinctively knew that she must have sothing up her sleeves.
"You miss around in the mansion?" Lin Xuan Qi asked.
Liu Shi Shi, who was deep in her thoughts about how he would react when he saw her friends from Yi i Sect, didn’t think much of it and answered, "Yes, sure I do."
Xue Cong’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Liu Shi Shi.
She felt inferior to Liu Shi Shi again.
Never would she have the courage to say sothing like what Liu Shi Shi did out loud, in front of so many.
Yue Jie and Yue Xin were also surprised at her frankness.
Lin Xuan Qi frowned and did a double take to make sure that he had heard correctly.
He glanced at her with a confused look.
His gaze made Liu Shi Shi realize what she had done.
"Oh... I ant that all of us would be glad that you are not overworked. Right?" She said and glanced at the others, trying to squirm her way out of it.
"Yes, we do. Master Lin, you should take care of your health." Xue Cong ca to her rescue and said.
Yue Jie, Yue Xin and Zhi Yong nodded their heads.
Lin Xuan Qi sighed and said, "Fine. I will take care of myself."
He silently thought about adding a rule for the clan, making it punishable to nag at him.
"Master Lin, let’s make a move. We have a long day ahead." Lin Xuan Qi glanced over at Lee He Song and said.
Lee He Song, who had finished his breakfast, downed his tea and stood up from his seat.
They left the mansion imdiately and headed for the slave brokerage.
...
Fei Luo’s eyes bead with joy when he saw Lin Xuan Qi approaching.
He stood up, rubbed his hands, and staggered towards the door.
Lin Xuan Qi nodded at him and asked, "What happened to your legs?"
"It’s a long story, but it’s got sothing to do with us trying to get the slaves you wanted," Fei Luo said with a sigh and gave a painful look with his face squished together, trying to garner sympathy from Lin Xuan Qi.
But Lin Xuan Qi ignored him and asked, "What’s that got to do with ?"
"We had to go and find what you wanted in the rural areas. And guess who we stumbled upon?" Fei Luo raised his hands up into the air and said, "Robbers."
"Robbers?"
"Yes, they tried to rob us clean, but lucky for , my n are trained martial artists.
"I’ve only managed to escape narrowly, monts away from being killed by those robbers," Fei Luo said and moved his hands around, trying to depict the fight that took place.
The problem of robbers seems to be getting out of hand, Lin Xuan Qi thought.
But he wasn’t interested in Fei Luo’s sob story.
It was part of Fei Luo’s risk for running his business. He wasn’t about to give Fei Luo more than what was agreed upon.
Fei Luo waited for him to make an offer with a smile, but there was only awkward silence.
He stood where he was and looked at Fei Luo.
"How could I forget?" Fei Luo slapped his forehead and said, "Let get my n to bring out the slaves you had asked for."
Fei Luo glanced back and wanted to give out a shout.
But he was stopped by Lin Xuan Qi.
"Bring out ten of them first. I want them to be strong and tough n and won."
