NOVEL SIMPLE Su Ruoqing had no objection and followed Chun Xiu upstairs, entering a secret bedroom around the corner.
She thought it would be a cramped and dilapidated room, but unexpectedly, it was very spacious and exquisite, different from the western style of the young commander’s bedroom. The furniture inside was ancient, very classical, and the floor was spotless. Obviously someone cleaned it every day.
Chun Xiu said, “This is a room for important guests. Miss Su, I’ll bhe at your service before you go to bed.”
Su Ruoqing avoided the maid’s reaching hand and softly responded, “No, I’m not used to being served. You may leave now. I’m going to sleep.”
As she spoke, she unbuttoned her clothes and walked towards the mahogany bed.
Chun Xiu stood there, staring at her back with insidious eyes.
Su Ruoqing walked to the bed and took off her dress, revealing her fair-skinned shoulders. She slightly turned her head, and looked at the maid gently but with no expression. “Why are you still here?”
Chun Xiu saw that Su Ruoqing was really going to bed and smiled. “I am off now.”
She took a few steps back and closed the door.
As she walked out, her face looked complacent.
A young maid happened to come upstairs and saw Chun Xiu coming out of that room. Then her expression changed slightly, and she said, “Chun Xiu, that room was for the old lady. Young Master does not allow anybody to enter. How can Miss Su stay there?”
Chun Xiu immediately showed a helpless expression and replied, “I’ve talked to her, but she didn’t listen. She said this room is beautiful and insisted on staying inside…”
“But she can’t. Young Master will be furious when he returns!”
After all, that room was the only thing left by the young general’s late mother. Except for the daily necessary cleaning, no one was allowed to come in.
Chun Xiu looked embarrassed. “Then go ask her to come out… I just said a few more words, and I almost got slapped by her…”
“No way. Isn’t that Miss Su quite gentle?”
“If she is really as gentle as she looks, how could she possibly win Young Master’s heart?”
The young maid was stunned and thought it was right.
All of the servants had witnessed how the young general treated other women. This Miss Su, was the first one different, so she must be very resourceful.
However, no matter how resourceful she was, she couldn’t cross the young commander’s line.
When the young commander found out that she had entered the old lady’s room, the woman would definitely be torn into pieces.
The two maids whispered while gradually walking away to do what they had to do.
It was midnight.
The originally quiet villa of the young commander became more silent. Only Chun Xiu and a young maid were left in the living room on the night shift, leaning against the wall, unable to resist the sleepiness.
Outside the yard, the sound of the car engine suddenly appeared.
It was the young general!
Chun Xiu woke up and immediately went out to greet him.
“General.”
Leng Yuhe was expressionless, with a chill at late night, and walked up to the living room with merely a few steps. He casually sat down on the sofa, took the cup of hot tea handed over by his servant, and took two sips. Then he rubbed his eyebrows before closing his tired eyes.
Chun Xiu lowered her head and stood behind him quietly and cautiously, waiting for the order.
After a short break for half a minute, he leaned on the sofa and asked with his eyes closed, “Where’s that woman?”
Chun Xiu was waiting for this question, and immediately answered with hesitation, “Miss Su, she.. she is…”
Leng Yuhe opened his sharp eyes. “Hmm?”
Chun Xiu’s head was lowered, as if she had made a mistake. “Pootting”, she knelt down, saying, “Young Master, please forgive me.”
Leng Yuhe stared at her without saying a word, but this silence was more oppressive.
Chun Xiu couldn’t help sweating under the pressure, and blurted out, “Miss Su entered Madam’s room. She didn’t listen no matter how we stopped her…”
Leng Yuhe’s fingers tapped on his knees and he said nothing.
Chun Xiu was even more afraid to look up, and her head was still lowered, her forehead almost pressed against the floor.
After a long time, perhaps only a few seconds, Leng Yuhe stood up and strode upstairs.
Taking a deep breath silently, Chun Xiu quickly got up to follow him.
She still had no courage to look up, but she could not stop letting out a smug smile on her lips after achieving success.
Leng Yuhe walked a few steps to the bedroom around the corner. With his long arm stretching out, he opened the door.
