I Am Young Master's Personal Bed-Warming Maidservant

"????... What's going on? I only said it casually. What's wrong with that?..."

"Hm? Wait?... Damn it, what a sin!..."

Clearly, Zi Yu had realized the inappropriate implications of his words.

But now that the words had left his mouth, it was too late to take them back.

Seeing Xiao Yu standing there in a daze, Zi Yu could only put on a cold, aloof front and say, "Miss Xiao Yu! I'll trouble you to lead the way!..."

Xiao Yu had yet to say anything about his aloofness, but Xiao Mei beside her sighed inwardly.

"What a cool, aloof god of a man! But I like him!..."

Then Xiao Yu came back to her senses and said gently, somewhat apologetically, "Sorry! I got distracted just now. Young Master Zi Yu, ladies, this way, please!..."

With that, she led the way ahead.

Seeing Xiao Yu being so gentle, her younger brother Xiao Ning and several Xiao Clan guards beside him were all dumbfounded.

Xiao Ning: "What's going on? Is this really my sister?..."

Xiao Clan guards: "What's going on? Since when did Young Miss Xiao Yu, who has always had such a fiery temper, become so easy to talk to?..."

Everyone knew of Xiao Yu's explosive temper throughout the Xiao Clan. For example, there had once been a certain talented young master who accidentally caught a glimpse of her bathing in the back mountain—and she had chased him down for half a year!

Yet this very Young Miss, who was notoriously difficult to get along with, was now treating a strange man with exceptional gentleness.

For a moment, they found it hard to believe!

However, matters concerning their master's daughter were not something guards like them could meddle in. They only needed to fulfill their duties.

Thus, the group of more than ten began strolling through the various markets of Wutan City.

Meanwhile, at the Galeo Family residence!

Jia Lie Bi, seated at the center of the council hall, received a report from a guard.

"What? The Little Bastard who injured my son has appeared?..."

Jia Lie Bi sat up, his tone agitated.

"Reporting to Clan Leader, he has indeed appeared. He is with members of the Xiao Clan near South City Market. Yan Liu and the others are watching him at the moment..."

The reporting guard knelt on one knee and answered respectfully.

Hearing this, Jia Lie Bi was overjoyed. Without another thought, he directly ordered, "Lead the way. Take this Clan Leader there. This time, I'll make the Little Bastard who injured my son pay the price and regret his actions."

Having said that, he hurriedly took several guards and left the residence, heading for the southern part of the city.

He was afraid that if he arrived too late, the other party might escape or enter the Miter Auction House, where it would be difficult for him to make a move.

After all, that area was very close to the Miter Auction House.

That was right! In Wutan City, the strongest forces were the Miter Auction House, the Xiao Clan, the Otto Family, and the Galeo Family.

These four great powers each occupied one side of Wutan City! The Xiao Clan was in the east, the Miter Auction House in the south, the Otto Family in the west, and the Galeo Family naturally occupied the north.

That was why Jia Lie Bi was in such a frantic rush to head to the south and capture someone to avenge his son.

South City!

Zi Yu led everyone into a teahouse and sat down, calmly drinking tea and eating pastries.

At this moment, Miao Ke'er naturally stood beside Zi Yu, attending to him.

Seeing Miao Ke'er serving him at his side, Xiao Yu was greatly surprised!

"Miss Ke'er! You...?"

Seeing Xiao Yu's questioning expression, Miao Ke'er smiled and said, "Miss Xiao Yu! There's nothing strange about this. I am Young Master's exclusive personal maidservant. This is simply my duty."

After hearing Miao Ke'er's words, everyone from the Xiao Clan twitched at the corners of their mouths!

"Such a beautiful woman! Is it really okay for her to be nothing more than a maidservant?"

At first, Miao Ke'er, Ling Qingzhu, Gu Xun'er, and Dongfang Jing had all covered their faces with thin veils, so they had not seen their features clearly. However, as Xiao Clan guards, none of them were fools. They had at least some skill at reading people.

Therefore, though they had not seen their faces clearly, the extraordinary bearing they exuded and their graceful figures were enough to tell that they were great beauties.

But now that they were resting in the teahouse, the four women had removed the veils from their faces, allowing everyone to see their breathtakingly beautiful features.

Once they saw their faces clearly, the Xiao Clan members were stunned!

It took them a long while to recover.

On the other side, after learning of Miao Ke'er's relationship with Zi Yu, Xiao Yu's expression stiffened as well!

As a woman herself, she could naturally sense the deep, undisguised affection in Miao Ke'er's beautiful eyes whenever she served Zi Yu.

Thus, Xiao Yu understood that Miao Ke'er must also like Zi Yu very much!

She liked him so much that she was even willing to become his servant and maidservant.

"Young Master's exclusive personal maidservant!"

Though it was only a short sentence, the weight behind it was immense!

Moreover, it seemed that there was not a single aspect in which she could compare to Miao Ke'er, whether in appearance or temperament.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt even more dejected.

"Could the little flame of love that has only just been kindled in my heart be extinguished like this?..."

It was not that she lacked confidence—it was that her rivals were simply too formidable! And there was more than one of them!

Besides Miao Ke'er, there were also Ling Qingzhu, Gu Xun'er, and Dongfang Jing.

After all, Xiao Yu was no fool. It was not as though she had failed to notice the looks in the other three women's eyes whenever they looked at Zi Yu.

Like Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei beside her also felt deeply dejected and inferior!

It seemed that she and her god of a man were destined to have no fate together!

Yet despite the intense disappointment in her heart, Xiao Yu still looked at Zi Yu with a gentle expression.

For no other reason than that he was the prince charming of her dreams.

At that moment, Xiao Yu calmed herself and asked softly.

"Young Master Zi Yu! Why are we stopping here?..."

She was somewhat puzzled by Zi Yu's decision to stop at such a small teahouse.

If he was truly tired, he could have gone elsewhere. There were several very luxurious restaurants nearby.

Wouldn't it have been better to rest there? Why choose this place? Xiao Yu could not understand it.

Seeing Xiao Yu's puzzled expression, Zi Yu said calmly, "Waiting for someone!..."

Hearing that, Xiao Yu became even more confused!

"Waiting for someone? Could it be that Young Master Zi Yu has an acquaintance in Wutan City and arranged to meet them here?"

"Of course!..."

Zi Yu smiled.

After saying that, he looked toward the north.

"Damn it! Why hasn't that old dog Jia Lie Bi arrived yet? Even an old granny walks faster than him. At this speed, why is he called Jia Lie Bi? He might as well change his name to Turtle Bi."
