"It’s rare for the Eldest Young Master to rember you, it’s really your good luck."
Qi Li, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, said, "This is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity, you better cherish it."
"Yes, yes, of course..."
Lie She’s greedy nature was unmistakable as he hurriedly took the box. Its weight was over ten pounds, heavier than usual, and he remarked, "This, this weight...is much more than usual..."
Usually, their transactions were straightforward, an exchange of cash and goods, which Lie She would take directly away.
However, today it was much heavier than usual.
"The Eldest Young Master said that even if you haven’t achieved any great deeds, you’ve worked hard. We should sympathize with you, so this ti we’ve prepared more, consider it as a gift for you!"
At first glance, there seed nothing wrong with this, but upon closer thought, it felt a bit peculiar.
Lie She realized the issue, sowhat awkwardly saying, "This isn’t necessary... serving the Eldest Young Master is what I should do, how could there be any rit in that... the Eldest Young Master really flattered ..."
Qi Li sneered, with a cold laugh, he said, "Lie She, you’ve been with the Eldest Young Master for a long ti, and everyone understands your nature. You’re timid and afraid of trouble, always jumpy. Now you’re causing such a stir in the Provincial City, if there wasn’t sothing strange about it, it would indeed be baffling!"
He flicked his cigarette, and continued, "If you think about it, you’re already forty, you’ve established yourself, you should get married and settle down for the second half of your life. We understand if you want to quit, but hiding it from us, that’s not brotherly."
Lie She’s back was drenched, sweating profusely couldn’t describe his current state.
All his thoughts were laid bare, and he was completely engulfed in fear.
What was inevitable had finally co...
Lie She had long been prepared...
"The, the Eldest Young Master misunderstood... I, Lie She, am rely a dog for the Eldest Young Master. Whatever the Eldest Young Master says to do, I do it, how could I abandon the Eldest Young Master because of establishing a family and career... You have to know, originally, my life was given by the Eldest Young Master..."
Lie She ignored everything, kneeling directly in the water, saying, "Brother Qi Li, you know, my loyalty to the Eldest Young Master is as clear as day, with no ulterior motives, if the Eldest Young Master points east, I won’t go west, if the Eldest Young Master tells to kill, I won’t hesitate, I hope the Eldest Young Master sees this clearly..."
He spoke with righteousness and integrity.
But in truth, his emotions were stirred.
Thinking carefully, over the years, Lie She indeed acted this way.
Every mont was tornt.
He seed formidable, yet in reality, his life wasn’t even his to dictate, what joy could these days bring...
"Hehehe, the Eldest Young Master understands your thoughts, that’s why this gift is to compensate you! It’s also a reward for your loyalty!"
Qi Li finished his last puff of cigarette, tossing it into the water, the embers were instantly extinguished with a ’sizzle’.
"I know, the Eldest Young Master’s intentions, I..."
Qi Li impatiently interrupted him, yet he had no mind to linger, instead saying, "Lie She, I advise you to first take a look at the Eldest Young Master’s gift, then declare your loyalty, it won’t be too late!"
Everything once again focused on the box.
Lie She, however, inexplicably beca indecisive, not knowing why he had a feeling that the mont the box opened, his destiny would be completely changed...
