The courtyard on the left side of the White Mansion was now brightly lit, and from the window outside, a figure could be clearly seen, holding an object in his hand, watching in trance.
Mu Shishi walked into the courtyard and looked at this scene, admiring in her heart that she was really a rare infatuated woman.
"Kunkou..." Walking to the door, Yingluo raised her finger and knocked on the door.
No one responded inside, and the figure reflected in the window remained motionless.
Yingluo glanced at Mu Shishi and knocked on the door again, but still no one came out to open the door.
Mu Shishi was helpless. She was so absorbed that it seemed that small sounds could not affect her.
"Yingluo, step back." Mu Shishi said.
Yingluo was confused but took a few steps back.
Mu Shishi stretched out her hand, lifted her clothes, raised her foot and made a 'touch' sound, and the closed door suddenly...
"Who?" came an exclamation from inside.
"Go in." Mu Shishi put her feet back and walked in.
The corner of Yingluo's mouth twitched. Only the young lady in the world could be so surprised.
"You...why didn't you knock on the door?" Nan Ling'er turned around the screen and was surprised to see Mu Shishi.
"Knock on the door? With your entranced look, you might not be able to hear it even if you break your fingers." Mu Shishi looked at her funny.
Hearing this, Nan Ling'er's face flashed with embarrassment.
"You don't have to be so restrained. According to your status, I have to salute you." Mu Shishi gestured for her to sit down. She never expected that she would be so restrained.
identity?
Nan Ling'er laughed at herself: "No status is as real as freedom."
"This sounds novel. You want freedom, but you may not have freedom if you follow me." Mu Shishi said casually.
Freedom, following her freedom is a little too far-fetched. What she wants is loyalty.
"I know that you are not half a woman. The reason why I am here is that I will be loyal to you without any second thoughts." How could Nan Ling'er not know what Mu Shishi meant.
Although she had not left home in the past few days, she had heard a lot. The woman in front of her was a legend.
Everyone in the house was in awe of her, just like Yingluo. Yingluo was very skillful with her hands and would do everything she was asked to do meticulously. However, she could tell that she was not a maid.
She had always been curious, so she couldn't help but ask her why she did these things when she was not a maid, but Yingluo said that serving Mu Shishi had become her habit, and she would feel uncomfortable if she was not allowed to do it.
If she is allowed to idle around and be a young lady, with people around to serve her, it will make her very uncomfortable, so it would be better to come here now.
Very simple words, words from the heart.
It was those words that made her have a good impression of Mu Shishi. Maybe it would be a good thing to follow her.
"It's good to know. I have sent someone to Nanyao. I also know about you. After the person is rescued, will he bring him to see you or..." Mu Shishi didn't say anything else. She believed it.
She understands.
"Let him go. His dream since childhood was to travel around the world. I was the one who dragged him down. Now I can just end it with him by blowing him up." Nan Ling'er said as she put her fingers into her sleeves and took out the
A pendant in the shape of a crescent moon: "Give this back to him for me."
"Don't you want to keep it as a souvenir?" Mu Shishi did not pick it up.
Nan Ling'er shook his head: "We will never see each other again. Keeping her will only increase the sadness."
If we never see each other again, staying here will only increase the sadness?
Mu Shishi paused in her heart and stretched out her hand to take the pendant. Keeping it would only add to the sadness? Did her father think so too?
There has never been a portrait of my mother, nothing, even that book, he has hidden it so deeply that he never takes it out. Is it because he is afraid that he will not be able to control his emotions?
She didn't understand why it was like this. Wouldn't it be nice to keep it in mind?
Nan Ling'er took out a dagger from her arms, and Yingluo became a little wary when she saw this.
Mu Shishi put away the pendant and watched her next move.
Nan Ling'er grabbed her hair and slashed it with a dagger. The long hair turned into shoulder-length hair and was draped messily on her shoulders.
"From now on, I am no longer Princess Nanyao. My identity is only yours. I am just your subordinate. I will never betray you in this life." She said one word at a time, handing the long hair to
In front of Mu Shishi.
The ancients valued the body, hair, and skin from their parents, and hair was very precious to them.
Seeing this, Mu Shishi took the long hair, which was very soft. Teaching her hair was a sign of respect and loyalty to her.
"Xiyue, your name will be Xiyue from now on." She stroked her hair and said softly.
"Yes, Xiyue thanks Miss for giving me the name." Nan Ling'er immediately knelt down...you should call me Xiyue.
"Get up, if your face is seen by others, it will definitely cause trouble. Would you like to change your appearance?" Mu Shishi asked again.
"Xiyue is willing." Xiyue said without any hesitation.
Mu Shishi nodded with satisfaction: "Yingluo gave her the pills."
Yingluo took out a red pill from her arms and handed it to Xiyue.
"Your appearance will change after you eat it." She specially developed this pill, which is a very good thing for women.
Xiyue picked up the red pill and swallowed it without even frowning.
Seeing this, Mu Shishi couldn't help but admire this woman's character. She didn't do anything sloppily. It was really against her temper.
Xiyue took the red pill, and a purple-red color gradually appeared on her fair face, slowly dyeing it into a huge birthmark.
"Aren't you afraid that your appearance will become ugly?" Mu Shishi asked softly.
Xiyue's face remained unchanged: "No matter how beautiful your face is, what's the use? Sooner or later, you will grow old. Now I'm just enjoying it in advance."
Her answers always made Mu Shishi very satisfied.
"Don't worry, this is just medicine. If you want to recover one day, just come to me." Mu Shishi carefully pulled her hair into a knot and asked casually.
Xiyue just nodded without answering. In her heart, her appearance was just like a passing cloud. She no longer cared about it. It was ugly. Maybe if she were uglier, she wouldn't have experienced this...
"Miss, from now on Yingluo will have a companion." Yingluo was delighted. She saw what Xiyue did and admired her in her heart.
Mu Shishi smiled lightly: "You are so anxious to have company, I told you to find some maids to come back, but you are still not happy."
"hey-hey."
Yingluo laughed playfully, holding Xiyue's arm lively and smiling at her, looking cute.
Seeing this, Mu Shishi smiled a little brighter. Yingluo was calm and composed in front of outsiders, but lively and considerate in front of her. Now that she had a new moon, she was also very happy.
