The young maid was about fifteen or sixteen years old. After paying respects to Tang Luo and Manager Xu, she stood in place, with her little head lowered. If it hadn’t been for Tang Luo’s unimpressive height, he wouldn’t have been able to see the wronged look in her eyes. Her dark eyes were fixed on the ground in front of her feet.

Am I really so terrifying? Tang Luo doubted. He thought he was so kind to the servants in the house, there was no reason for them to fear him.

Adjusting his facial expression, he put on a refreshing young boy’s face and casually asked, “What’s your name?”

“I’m Xing Yu,” the little maid answered, her face full of grievance.

“Xing Yu, I want to ask you, do you remember the person who told me stories when you used to take care of me?” Tang Luo asked, smiling.

Hearing Tang Luo’s words and seeing his expression, Xing Yu was filled with alarm, stuttering, too scared to make a sound.

She felt so miserable. As expected, the lord of the house was a big villain who liked to settle accounts after the fact. It had been two months, and he was still looking to cause trouble for Brother Aji.

Seeing the little maid dawdling in the face of the young master’s question, Manager Xu barked, “Speak when you’re told to!”

The severe presence of the steward was too heavy for the little maid. At the sound of his voice, she shivered, her eyes filling instantaneously with tears, a whimper escaping her lips.

Even more displeased with the little maid’s attitude, Manager Xu made to step forward and slap Xing Yu across the face.

The little maid, who had just been whimpering, now broke out into a full-fledged cry, filled with fear and shock at the sight of the steward raising his hand.

“Stop, stop,”

Tang Luo grabbed the steward’s arm, slightly vexed. He simply came to ask a few questions, how did everything devolve into such a state?

The little maid wept, her face resembling rain-soaked pear blossoms. It seemed her name aptly portrayed her – a spring rain mingling with the apricot blossoms.

With resignation, Tang Luo pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Xing Yu.

“Wipe your face, you’re crying like a baby kitten.”
