Teaching Hu Liena a Lesson, Be My Maid!

Inside the luxury suite.

Hu Liena was bound tightly by ropes, squirming and struggling on the sofa.

Opposite her sat Qin Jiuxiao and the girls, including Zhu Zhuqing, who was draped in a bathrobe.

Ning Rongrong sat beside Qin Jiuxiao, her face puffed up with anger.

If looks could kill, she would have killed Hu Liena hundreds or thousands of times over by now.

That was her and Brother Jiuxiao's first time; interrupting them at the climax was like killing one's parents, you jerk!

"Speak!"

"Who exactly are you, and what were you trying to do by sneaking into our room?"

Ning Rongrong pointed at her from a position of superiority, her eyes practically spitting fire.

"Mmph! Mmph!"

Hu Liena hummed a few times, signaling that her mouth was gagged and asking them to untie her first.

But Ning Rongrong didn't care about that. Seeing Hu Liena refuse to speak, she immediately picked up a small leather whip from the table.

"Fine, fine, fine. You're going to provoke this young lady by staying silent, are you?"

She walked over to Hu Liena's side, revealing a smile like a little devil.

Swish!

Under Hu Liena's wide-eyed gaze, she lashed out with the whip.

"Snap!"

The sound was crisp, and Hu Liena let out a soft moan.

"Are you going to talk or not? Still not talking?"

As she spoke, she landed a few more lashes.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

Muffled groans followed one after another.

Finally, as if exhausted from the whipping, Ning Rongrong tossed the whip aside.

"A tough nut to crack, very well!"

"This young lady has plenty of ways to deal with tough nuts!"

The other girls had a rough guess as to why Ning Rongrong was so angry.

A profound look flashed in the depths of Zhu Zhuqing's eyes as she looked at Qin Jiuxiao.

Zhu Zhuyun, meanwhile, sat with her beautiful legs crossed, revealing a charming smile.

Xiao Wu was lost in thought, remembering what Zi Ji had told her. A flush of red couldn't help but cross her face, but she seemed to have made a certain resolution.

Just as Ning Rongrong was about to find another way to teach Hu Liena a lesson, Qin Jiuxiao stepped forward.

He hadn't spoken earlier because he wanted to let Ning Rongrong vent her frustration.

But he couldn't let her actually break the person.

When he had tied her up earlier, the system prompt had allowed him to recognize the identity of the person before him.

Although Hu Liena was also one of his targets, he hadn't even been to Spirit City yet.

Shouldn't this Hu Liena be staying at Spirit Hall right now? How did she end up here?

And eavesdropping on him, no less.

However, since she had disguised herself, she clearly didn't want to reveal her identity, so he would play along with her little act.

"Alright, Rongrong. She still has your silk stocking in her mouth, so she can't talk."

"Take it out!"

Once Qin Jiuxiao spoke, Ning Rongrong reluctantly complied, though the corners of her mouth turned up, clearly in a much better mood.

With the white silk removed, Hu Liena was finally able to speak.

Just as she was about to start cursing Ning Rongrong, Qin Jiuxiao stepped into Ning Rongrong's place.

He reached her side and delivered a slap.

Smack!

Her shapely buttocks swayed; she clearly had a superb figure.

"Feels good!"

Under Hu Liena's gaze of shame and indignation, Qin Jiuxiao spoke with righteous indignation.

"What are you glaring at me for?"

"You're the intruder who broke into my room. I haven't even interrogated you about your background yet, and you're glaring at me?"

He delivered another slap as he spoke. Hu Liena's delicate body trembled; even with all the grievances in the world, she had to swallow them.

Detestable Qin Jiuxiao, detestable Ning Rongrong.

As long as the two elders, Ju and Gui, came to find her, she would be able to take back everything she had lost today.

Once she revealed her identity as the Saintess of Spirit Hall, she would definitely whip Ning Rongrong with that little leather whip.

Then, she would have someone capture Qin Jiuxiao and lock him in her secret chamber to deal with him properly.

She would make him know the consequences of offending a Saintess.

For now, she needed to endure and keep her identity hidden.

After all, if word got out that the Saintess of Spirit Hall was sneaking into people's rooms, it would damage the dignity of Spirit Hall, and her own reputation as the Saintess would be ruined.

Thinking of this, Hu Liena immediately concocted a tragic backstory in her mind, and tears came to her eyes on command.

"Young Master Qin, I have my reasons."

"My parents both died when I was young, and I grew up all alone, cultivating to this point."

"I came to Suotuo City and was fortunate enough to receive the protection of the Qin Family, which gave me a job to make a living."

"Young Master Qin is a genius of the Qin Family. I am grateful to the Qin Family and worship Young Master Qin; in my heart, there is only Young Master Qin, my sun."

"I thought I could just watch Young Master Qin from the shadows and live out this ordinary life."

"But fate is cruel; misfortune always finds the miserable, and the rope always snaps at its thinnest point."

"I was harassed and threatened by a few lecherous men, and I even lost my job. With nowhere left to turn, I had no choice but to take a risk and come to seek refuge with you, Young Master Qin."

After finishing, she put on an expression of having suffered a great grievance while still trying to endure it.

It made even Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing feel a bit of sympathy.

Zhu Zhuyun, however, narrowed her eyes, seeing right through Hu Liena's performance.

But she didn't say anything, merely glancing at Qin Jiuxiao inadvertently.

Now that she had given everything to Qin Jiuxiao, naturally, the master had to come first in all things.

If Qin Jiuxiao was interested in this woman, she would just need to remind him in private or keep a secret watch.

A smart woman would never try to take the lead away from her man in any matter.

She only needed to support him silently from behind, giving him a push—or several pushes—when needed.

"Oh, you came to seek refuge with me, but I never keep useless people."

"What skills do you have?"

"Can you massage shoulders or rub backs, or perhaps sing and dance?"

Qin Jiuxiao's gaze swept over Hu Liena's enchanting figure, and he raised an eyebrow.

"Or, being a little maid to warm my bed would work too."

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhu Zhuyun and the others immediately became vigilant.

Zhu Zhuyun immediately went to Qin Jiuxiao's side and hugged his arm.

"Master, bed-warming is my job. If you do that, Zhuyun will lose her job."

Zhu Zhuqing also immediately went behind Qin Jiuxiao, wrapping her arms around his neck to massage his shoulders, looking at Hu Liena with a show of dominance.

Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu also crowded around Qin Jiuxiao, shielding him tightly.

Hu Liena's mouth twitched, but seeing Qin Jiuxiao's half-smiling expression, she gritted her teeth and spoke.

"I... I can carry things for you, Young Master Qin. Whatever you buy when you go shopping, I can help carry, and for the sisters as well."

"Sisters?"

Ning Rongrong raised an eyebrow and looked over.

Hu Liena endured the humiliation and corrected herself:

"For all the ladies."

Only then did Ning Rongrong nod in satisfaction, holding her head high like a victorious hen.

Qin Jiuxiao also smiled: "In that case, let's start with a one-month probationary period. If you can't pass, there's no pay."

Hu Liena's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed. Successfully infiltrating the enemy's ranks was the first step.

"Thank you, Young Master Qin."

Qin Jiuxiao nodded, untied the ropes on Hu Liena, and stood up in the center of the girls.

"Ladies, pack up. We're heading to Shrek Academy."

"I'll take you to see what this academy is like. If it's not good enough, I'll take you to another one."

"I will use the best resources to cultivate you all."

"When the time comes, I will make every one of you a god, to share eternity with me!"
