"Excuse me, can I take her away?"
Her voice is no less impressive than her stunning looks, and the two complement each other perfectly.
I saw this woman with a graceful appearance slowly stretching out her hand and pointing firmly at the goods she had just grabbed. Her tone was gentle but also had a hint of strength, as if her goods had become her possession.
Logically speaking, she should be angry.
But looking at her face, she couldn't show any displeasure.
The first one to come to his senses was one of the two guards. He shook his head to wake himself up, then took two steps and blocked Elowen Yang with his tall figure.
"No way?"
Hearing the woman's slightly aggrieved and disappointed voice, the woman in red, who was still in shock, finally came back to her senses.
She took a few steps forward and came to Harper. The previous harshness on her face was wiped away, and her tone was so gentle that the guard's jaw dropped.
"Girl, Elowen Yang has been sold to me by his father, and I still have the deed of sale here."
Although she admires and loves this beautiful woman very much, the woman in red, who has been a businessman for half her life, still maintains some sense.
The woman in red smiled softly, and her originally harsh face turned kind. "I think the girl is very kind. If you want her, I don't mind reselling her to you at the original price."
As soon as the woman in red said these words, the two guards were stunned for a moment.
Their godmother regards wealth as her life, and does not do any loss-making business on weekdays. There has never been an example of reselling at the original price before.
Harper: ...
Reach out and don't slap the smiling face.
Although the woman in red is not necessarily a good person, she has a pretty good attitude towards her. If she robbed her so openly, it would be unjustifiable and it would easily make the matter bigger.
Archer hasn't been found yet, and she is penniless.
This woman named Elowen Yang may have some connection with monsters, so she must not leave her alone.
Harper was thinking, and when he looked up, he saw the woman in red staring at him.
Although she hasn't seen her face yet, since she entered the city, people passing by will show surprise when they see her, so it is not difficult to guess that she must be good-looking now.
But this was the first time I saw a woman staring at her so fascinatedly.
Yes, obsessed.
Harper suddenly had an idea. She walked slowly to the side of the woman in red, nodded to her, her tone was soft and gentle, better than the warm spring sun, "Sister, I have temporarily lost contact with my brother, and I don't have any money with me." "Habit, can you wait until my brother comes over before I give you the money?"
Facing Harper's gentle words, the woman in red lost all her sense.
She is even more beautiful when seen up close. There is no blemish on her unpainted face, which is so beautiful that people can't help but hold their breath.
Seeing the woman in red like this, Harper added another irritation, "Sister, is that okay?"
The woman in red was so mesmerized that she came out of her body. After she recovered a little, she heard her mouth say uncontrollably--"Okay."
But she quickly regained some sense. She looked away, looked at Elowen Yang behind her, and added: "Yes, yes, but I need you to write a written statement."
The words of the woman in red made the two guards behind her widen their eyes. Their godmother was also a bit too talkative. Wasn't she really possessed by a ghost?
"Okay, thank you sister." Harper nodded very straightforwardly, and when the woman in red looked at her secretly, she raised her head and smiled at her.
Woman in red: ...
Isn't this more charming than the pretty boys she keeps in her yard?
Seeing herself being trafficked for the second time, Elowen Yang not only felt no fear or sadness, but also felt a sense of joy and joy.
Compared to going to that dirty place, she would be happy to be a slave for the rest of her life.
and...
Looking at the slender and graceful figure in front of her, no matter in terms of clothing or temperament, she looks like one of the best. Even if she becomes her slave, she will not be too bad.
Besides, she is so beautiful.
Not only does the old woman who is over thirty like her, but she also has a good impression of her.
If she could always take care of her in the future, she would be willing.
It is much better than working as a cow to take care of your family, only to end up being sold by your loved ones.
If she were to be bought as a servant normally, she would not be so resentful, but they actually sold her to a place like a brothel in order to make more money.
How could there be such cruel parents in the world.
...
On the way to sign the document, Harper also found out basic information about the woman by chatting with her.
Her name is Zhao Jiayi, she is thirty-three years old, unmarried and has no children, and is not a local. She came to Kirigakure City seven years ago. After that, she relied on the money she had left to set up a stall to earn money. In a few years, she was now the leader of the largest brothel and a famous rich woman in Kirigakure City.
Although Zhao Jiayi made the process very easy, it is not difficult to guess how difficult it was for a young woman to start a business in ancient times.
It was this brief exchange that changed Harper's previous bad impression of her.
Zhao Jiayi silently observed the beautiful woman walking beside her. She had black hair reaching her waist and she was not wearing a hairpin, which made her want to tie her hair.
"Miss Ling, do you need my help to find your brother?"
"Thank you Sister Zhao, but I don't think so." Harper smiled and shook her head in refusal, then looked at the waning moon in the sky and said with certainty: "He will come to me."
Archer would not give up on her at this time.
"That's it."
After Zhao Jiayi nodded clearly, he stared at her side face in trance, and couldn't help but resent Miss Ling's brother in his heart.
He is really an irresponsible brother to lose such a beautiful sister. What will happen if something happens to Miss Ling?
Every time Miss Ling looked at her, her seductive eyes were full of sincerity and tenderness, stimulating a protective desire that she had never felt before in her heart.
"Then while Miss Ling hasn't found her brother, would you like to come and stay with me temporarily?" Before Zhao Jiayi could think of a good idea, she had already opened her mouth to invite him uncontrollably.
She did not regret it, but she was afraid that Miss Ling would misunderstand that she had bad intentions, so she added in a panic: "Although our place is a romantic place, there is also a pure place. If Miss Ling comes, I will definitely treat her warmly." with you."
It's true that she likes money, but how can those men deserve to touch such an outstanding woman as Miss Ling?
If Miss Ling is willing to stay with her, she doesn't mind keeping her.
She makes money just to make herself happy. She can see a beauty like Miss Ling at any time, no matter how much money she spends, she will still be happy.
Zhao Jiayi's eyes were expectant, and he didn't even notice when he clenched his hands, for fear of hearing rejection from Harper's mouth.
"OK."
Harper is different from Archer. She doesn't like wandering on the street late at night, especially when Archer is not around.
So under Zhao Jiayi's expectant eyes, she agreed without hesitation.
Hearing Miss Ling nod her head in agreement, Zhao Jiayi put down the cuffs that were tightened by her fingers. Her face was filled with joy, and her attitude became more gentle and friendly, which made the two guards behind her widen their eyes.
When has your godmother ever been so gentle?
However, when they saw Harper's appearance, they could understand it. After all, not everyone could resist being stared at by such an outstanding beauty.
Harper didn't care about other people's opinions. Among these people, the one she cared about the most was the woman in green named Elowen Yang.
She looked at her calmly. Her appearance was unremarkable, she had no advantage except for her pleasant voice, and she didn't know why she was connected to the powerful monster.
Just as Harper was about to look away, he saw Elowen Yang shaking his head at him eagerly and winking desperately.
In Elowen Yang's view, Harper now looks like an ignorant girl who was trafficked.
Harper winked at her with a playful smile.
Of course she knew what Elowen Yang was worried about. It was just that she, a weak woman, dared to follow people to the Land of Wind and Moon.
In the past, Harper would not trust others so quickly, but now...
Is she a monster?
Even if you can't fight, can't you still run away?
Creatures like mice are the best at escaping.
Harper frowned when she thought that she was now a mouse, because the place where she lived when she was a child was full of mice, which made her hate mice deeply. She never thought that one day she would turn into the creature she was most afraid of.
Fortunately, this is no ordinary mouse. It can be cultivated and transformed.
If she was really asked to be a mouse and live with other mice, she would probably choose to see the King of Hell on the spot.
But everything has its pros and cons, and the mouse didn't end well in the end.
Now that he is now a party involved, he must find a way to change his destiny.
...
As the gongs and drums sounded, Harper saw Zhao Jiayi covering his mouth and yawning.
While Harper was thinking about Archer, he followed Zhao Jiayi and the others through several alleys.
When she came to her senses, she realized that this was the road she and Archer had walked before, and she also disappeared nearby.
Seeing the slight change in Harper's expression, Zhao Jiayi thought she was tired and quickly comforted her softly, "Miss Ling, she's right in front."
Looking along the direction of Zhao Jiayi's fingers, Harper's original calm and gentle expression changed slightly.
It felt so familiar. Wasn't that the place where Yue Archer went to sleep before?
It turned out to be the land of romance.
No wonder Archer had such a strange reaction at that time and said that the place was not serious.
Thinking of the young boy's embarrassed and angry expression at that time, Ling was slightly shy but also found it interesting. She quickly covered her lips with her fingers and chuckled.
...
Zhao Jiayi temporarily arranged Harper near him, and ordered a female servant to be on standby outside the door, then yawned and left.
Harper closed the door, closed her eyes and lay on the bed. A quarter of an hour later, her closed eyes opened. Harper put on her shoes distractedly and went to the window. She pushed it open and stared at the moon in trance.
The moon is not round tonight, and even its light is very dim.
Isn't Archer's efficiency too low?
It must have been more than two hours since they separated.
If she hadn't known that Archer wanted to slay the demon, she would have really worried that he would leave without her.
Harper picked up the green potted plant on the windowsill and poked the small leaves on it. She lowered her head and looked downcast.
"Third Prince, you are so slow."
This kind of waiting without any commitment is really torturous. She hasn't experienced this feeling of internal friction for a long time.
Just like the plot in a TV series, as soon as Harper's voice fell, a clear and sarcastic boy's voice sounded.
"Aren't you happy?"
Harper's eyes lit up when he heard the familiar voice.
She quickly raised her head and saw Archer, dressed in red, standing outside the window with his arms crossed and a speechless expression on his face.
Archer had just found the white mouse, and before he could even appear, he heard her plaintive voice, especially when she called him by her name. The grievance and sadness in her tone made him frown reflexively.
Those who don’t know think he did something excessive?
"I'm not happy!" Harper put down the potted plant, her clear eyes suddenly filled with crystal clear eyes, and she looked at Archer with focused and sincere eyes, "I'm worried that you don't want me anymore, Third Prince."
This is the truest thought in Harper's heart.
Although she quickly accepted that she was wearing a book, only she knew the uneasiness and uneasiness in her heart. The appearance of Archer also gave her a temporary home and the motivation to change the future.
In addition to wanting to pray for protection, she also really wanted to make friends with this heroic boy from myths and legends.
She looked at Archer motionlessly. Even though his expression was not good, she felt relieved.
Looking at the pitiful look of the little white mouse with red eyes, Archer rarely felt a trace of compassion. He said awkwardly - "Although I don't have a good impression of you, since I said it, it's natural I will send you to Xiankong Mountain and then leave."
Harper: ...
Thank you, it is better not to comfort me.
It's even more uncomfortable now.
"So, until then, I won't ignore you."
