Li Qing looked at Xi Ran, and said calmly: "I didn't expect you, a woman, to have a little temper. I thought you were really as calm as water."

"My lord speaks too seriously, Xi Ran has no right to lose his temper, and there's no need to."

"I know you're feeling uncomfortable, but I'm doing this for your own good. Some things and some people are not what you see on the surface. It seems that everything is calm, but in fact it is undercurrents. Do your part Things, don't worry about other things, or you will bring yourself trouble."

"From now on in the mansion, just do things quietly, don't ask too much, and don't think too much. Being by Miss Sheng's side is indeed a kind of protection for you, but you should understand that no one can protect you forever I will give you a few more days, and you can make a decision before I return to the capital. If you agree, I will take you home. If you disagree, you will have nothing to do with each other. I will not meddle in your business. Of course, Don't worry, I won't hold grudges against you."

Xi Ran believed in Li Qing's capacity, and maybe he looked at him out of sympathy.After all, he is not beautiful, nor does he have extraordinary abilities, so this proud man has no reason to love her to the bone.

Xi Ran is very self-aware, and even has low self-esteem, perhaps because he was born in a humble background and lived in such an environment since he was a child.He didn't even believe that Li Qing really liked her.

She nodded, "Thank you sir for looking up to my little girl. I will definitely consider this opportunity seriously."

"Get up! It's cold to kneel on the ground, besides, you haven't done anything wrong."

Xi Ran stood up and stroked his wrist unconsciously, it was hurt by Li Qing just now.

Seeing her action, Li Qing realized that he was too rude just now, he took a step forward and took Xi Ran's hand.

"Does it still hurt? I pinched you just now."

Xi Ran quickly withdrew his hand and shook his head, "It's okay. If your lord has nothing to do, I'll go back first."

Seeing Xi Ran's reaction, Li Qing was very happy. Only such a woman conforms to the standards of this era.

Looking around, he sneered, "Do you know the way back?"

Hearing such words, Xi Ran raised his head and looked around, feeling a little nervous because he didn't know where it was.I was caught and flew over by a man just now, I was so scared that I closed my eyes, how could I remember the way?

Seeing her expression, Li Qing smiled, "Follow me at ease, I won't do anything to you? I've never been that impatient man, I can wait until the day you agree to go back with me."

After speaking, he looked at Xi Ran, waiting for his answer.

Xi Ran raised his head to look at him, and asked timidly, "Why did your lord give me this chance? Is it because you pity me?"

"If only your status makes you feel sorry for you, then there are so many maids in the world, and I can't marry them all! Because I think you are a good girl, I want to give you this opportunity. Of course, this opportunity is very important to me. It's not the best for you, after all, I already have several wives in my family."

Xi Ran was in this age, even if he was from such a lowly background, he could not be a regular wife even if the other party was not married. After all, the Li family had a great career, and he was a celebrity around Sheng Junze, so his future was limitless.

Seeing that Xi Ran stopped talking, Li Qing walked forward, he never forced anyone.Seeing her go, Xi Ran quickly followed her. Without his guidance, she would not be able to go back at all. It was already late, and although there should be no wild beasts here, she was also very scared.

Soon, she saw the house and knew it was near.If it wasn't for this time, she wouldn't even know there was a grove here.

When he was about to arrive, Li Qing quickened his pace and left, and Xi Ran was quickly thrown away.He did this, of course, in order not to be discovered.

When Xi Ran returned to the door, he happened to meet two servant girls. Seeing her coming back from the outside, one of the servant girls asked in confusion, "Where are you going at this time? Why did you come back?"

Not knowing how to answer for a moment, Xi Ran hesitated.

At this moment, a maidservant next to her hurriedly stopped her and said, "Why do you care so much? Xi Ran is doing things for Miss Sheng, and she must be following Miss Sheng's orders. Don't eat too much, care too much, you Who do you think you are?"

The maid who was accused of this was unhappy, and snorted coldly, "I'm just talking casually, and I don't have to answer, if it's inconvenient to say it, forget it."

Xi Ran said softly, "There is no inconvenience, but I don't need to report to you."

She spoke very calmly and her attitude was very gentle, just like when she was often bullied before, but the words made the other party speechless.

I used to be submissive and bullied by these people. Since I fought with the other two maids last time, the attitude of these people has changed a lot.After all, many people have understood the truth that Xi Ran is not something they can casually bully.Not only did Sheng Aning value her, but Li Qing also vented his anger on her.

Until now, everyone didn't know why Li Qing wanted to vent his anger on Xi Ran, but they understood a truth, don't cause trouble here, otherwise the end will be miserable.

The servant girl was at a loss for words for a while, and didn't know how to answer, so she could only pouted and said, "Of course there is no need to report to me, and I don't want to hear it either."

"Since you don't want to listen, then there's no need to ask. Is there anything else? If there's nothing else, I'm leaving first." Xi Ran looked at the maid standing in front of him, and said unceremoniously.

The companion hurriedly pulled the maid to make way for Xi Ran to leave.

Xi Ran walked past them calmly. She never dared to cause trouble in the past, thinking that she could spend here in peace without provoking anyone.But things are not as she thought, the more timid and fearful, the more bullied by everyone.

Only after fighting back, some people would not dare to bully her wantonly, of course she also knew that it was because of Li Qing last time, otherwise the housekeeper wouldn't have changed her so much.

Xi Ran can't go back to rest at this time, he has to go to Sheng An Ning's place, I don't know if she needs anything.Although she had only left for a while, she was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it.

Xi Ran knew that if she didn't talk about Sheng Anning, she wouldn't ask too many questions, but she didn't want Sheng Anning to think that she was an ignorant girl.Without Li Qing's proposal, she really wanted to be Sheng Anning's maid for the rest of her life.But now she is a little shaken. It is also a good thing for her not to be a slave to serve others.Just can't make up my mind.
