Chapter 153 As Long as You Want
Chapter 153 As Long as You Want
The girl pursed her lips and did not agree immediately, looking at the people in the audience.
Yun Suyue thought she wouldn't agree, but just as she opened her mouth, the girl unexpectedly agreed, "Okay."
"Wait a moment."
Yun Suyue still wanted to save the girl. She liked her decisive and ruthless nature. "Why don't you follow me and be my bodyguard? Food and lodging are all provided, and the salary is not bad. It's better than being someone's mistress and being used to bear children, right?"
The spectators around also agreed, "Yes, this is good, what's there to hesitate about?"
Unexpectedly, the girl decisively refused. "Sorry, I don't like fighting and killing. I just want to have a stable life, even if it means being a concubine that others look down upon."
"Hopeless." The onlookers' scolding already explained Yun Suyue's mood.
With a "thump", a man knelt in front of Yun Suyue. Judging from his attire, he was ready to go on stage to fight. He was sloppy, with unkempt hair and a dirty face, and it was difficult to tell whether he was a man or a woman. He knelt down and kowtowed to Yun Suyue.
"My lord, do you want me? I'll be your bodyguard, with food and lodging provided, and the wages are only half of what you just offered. I'm a kung fu expert, a third-level intermediate, and I'm an orphan, so I can do any job.
As long as you accept me, I can go with you immediately."
Even though she was deliberately disguising herself as a man by suppressing her voice, Yun Suyue could still tell she was a girl. She lowered her head and looked her over from all angles. She was not very old, about the same age as Jiuli, but her clothes and complexion were very bad. Yun Suyue could tell at a glance, "Are you sick?"
At first the girl thought Yun Suyue was scolding her, but after thinking about it she answered honestly, "Yes, I dare not deceive you, sir. As a beggar I have nothing to eat, and sometimes the things I beg for are snatched away by the older children. As a result, I sometimes have to drink ditch water or eat wild fruits for several days, which makes my stomach upset.
But I learned my Kung Fu from the nunnery, so I beg you to give me a place to stay and food to eat."
The girl was completely prostrated.
Yu Di, who was three meters away from Yun Suyue and holding his nose, asked, "You don't really want it, do you?"
"Yes." Yun Suyue pulled the girl up, "You passed."
"Ugh!" Yu Di was so disgusted by the disgusting smell on the girl that he vomited and ran far away to vomit.
Yun Suyue asked her, "Have you ever killed anyone?"
The girl nodded and said, "I have killed many men who tried to bully me. If I couldn't beat them, I would run away from one place to another until I came here.
Your Excellency?"
Yun Suyue: "Call me Miss from now on."
The girl kowtowed quickly: "Yes, Miss."
"What's your name?" Yun Suyue pulled her up.
"Yin Zi, I named it for myself. Mi Yin Zi, my original surname is Mi."
Yun Suyue thought for a moment and said, "Yinzi doesn't sound nice, so let's just call you Mi Duoduo from now on."
"Yes, Miss, my name is Mi Duoduo. It sounds really nice. Call my name more often when you are hungry in the future."
Yun Suyue cast her gaze towards the arena. "As long as you remain loyal and don't betray me, you will never be hungry if you follow me."
Jiuli and Taoxiang never feel hungry because they have caught her infection. They carry delicious food in their small cloth bags every day.
"That's great, Miss Xie. Duoduo is most afraid of having nothing to eat." The little girl had probably been wandering for a long time and had seen all kinds of people. She was not afraid of Yun Suyue.
"Is it okay?" After vomiting, Yu Di didn't want to stay here for a moment, but he didn't dare to get close to Yun Suyue because Yun Suyue was accompanied by the smelly Mi Duoduo.
Yun Suyue shook her head, "It's still early, eat this."
She knew Yu Di wanted to go back to sleep, so she raised her hand and threw him a fruit.
"What is that?" Yu Di took it in his hand and looked at it, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Is this... the vitality fruit that the Tai family auctioned?"
For safety reasons, he didn't dare say it out loud. He ignored the stench and ran to Yun Suyue with his long legs, pointing at the fruit in ecstasy.
"Stop talking nonsense and eat yours." Yun Suyue pushed him away because he was blocking her view.
"Eat one too, and your illness will be cured." Yun Suyue also gave Mi Duoduo one and asked her to stand farther away from her because she couldn't stand the smell.
Mi Duoduo held the vitality fruit in her hands. She couldn't believe that her master just gave her one. Seeing Yu Di's reaction, she knew that this fruit must be very precious. She was so excited holding it in her palm that she couldn't bear to eat it.
As far as she could remember, except for her grandmother who wandered around begging with her, no one had been so kind to her. Instead, they all wanted to take advantage of her. That's why her grandmother knelt in front of the nunnery for three days and three nights, just to ask the nun to teach her some martial arts so that she could at least protect herself when her grandmother was not around.
"The eldest lady is... so nice." Mi Duoduo cried with emotion.
Yun Suyue didn't see her cry. She was being scolded by the stingy Yu Di, "What a waste! You actually gave her one! This is priceless."
"If you don't want to eat it, give it back to me." Yun Suyue reached out and grabbed the fruit.
"Crack!" Yu Di took a bite. "You wish! No one can take back what's in my hands."
"Stand aside." Yun Suyue squinted at him.
"Okay." Yu Di was in a good mood and was very cooperative. He immediately flashed to Yun Suyue's right and watched the two men fighting on the black ring with Yun Suyue.
Several people who survived the fight fought for it, but it was finally taken by Yun Suyue. This young and strong man was also good-looking. "What's your name?"
The man deadpanned, "Hardcore."
Yun Suyue almost laughed out loud, "Do you have a sister named Fans?"
The man shook his head. "No, my sister has been taken away by someone else. Her name isn't Fans, it's Tieye. My mother said that a name like that would make her easier to raise."
Yun Suyue stopped laughing at him. She looked down at the man's slave indenture in her hand and asked him, "Why did you become a slave? And why were you sold here?"
The man didn't seem to want to answer, but he was already Yun Suyue's paid servant and had no right to refuse. "A local rich man said that my sister stole a valuable jade hairpin from their house while working. After being discovered, she denied it and even beat up the rich man.
My mother went to the government office to file a complaint and was beaten and thrown out. My sister was taken away by a rich man who sold her body as compensation. I was reduced to a slave and sold here and there."
Yun Suyue originally thought that he had committed some crime and was reduced to slavery, but unexpectedly he was just another poor man with a story. It sounded like he was framed because the rich man fell in love with his sister who was working there.
Ask him, "Do you want to rescue your sister and seek justice for your mother?"
The man's dead eyes suddenly lit up. "Can you? Can you really redress the injustice for my sister and mother?"
Yun Suyue nodded, "As long as you want, it's fine, provided you are loyal to me and have no second thoughts."
The tall and strong man knelt directly in front of Yun Suyue, "Slave, please help me, Master. My life is yours, and I won't frown even if I die for you."
"Okay, get up. There's no need for you to keep saying you're going to die. What's your original last name? Call me Miss from now on." Yun Suyue asked the man to get up.
"Xie, Miss Xie. My original surname is Feng, which means windy." The man looked at Yun Suyue's masked face with gratitude.
Yun Suyue nodded and said, "Okay, Feng Tiegan sounds too bad, from now on you will be called Feng Qi."
"Yes, Fengqi thanks the young lady for giving him the name." Fengqi felt like he had found his relatives, and his heart felt warm.
Yun Suyue watched a few more shows, but gave up because they were too old and not what she wanted, until the last batch of top-notch slave servants with martial arts skills were bought and sold.
