Chapter 181.2 - Help her bandage her wound
She was scared that the Night Prince would confront her master.
After all, her master seemed to dislike the Night Prince lately.
“Oh, the Night Prince. I saw him when I went to the pavilion. I also heard Miss Ye Ji play the zither.” Lou Qingwu’s face was too calm, it made Lan Bai feel a bit uncomfortable.
“Master, are you … really okay?”
“Do I look like I’m not okay?” She threw away her handkerchief before she seriously lifted up her head.
Lan Bai quickly shook her head.
But she still felt a bit strange.
She still couldn’t read her master after all, so she could only put away her thoughts about the Night Prince.
“Master, if I went in with you, that’d be the best.” Lan Bai didn’t know what else to say.
In her heart, she still didn’t think her master liked going to the third prince’s residence.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be wiping her hands with her handkerchief the instant she left the third prince’s residence, as if something had dirtied her hands.
This was a habit that she’d never seen Lou Qingwu have before.
Lou Qingwu froze before laughing bitterly, “What would you do if you followed me? It’d just dirty your eyes.”
Lan Bai’s heart hurt.
But if her master didn’t like going, why did she persist in going?
“Master, if you really don’t want to, you don’t have to force yourself.”
“There are some things that, even if I don’t want to do them, I have to do them.” The thorn inside her heart had already entered her blood.
She couldn’t rip it out so she only if she did this, did she feel as if she were alive.
Lan Bai opened her mouth but seeing the emptiness in Lou Qingwu’s eyes, she closed her mouth again.
She suddenly thought of when she was being sold in that auction.
Wasn’t that the same …
She couldn’t do anything she wanted to.
But the difference was that her body was the thing that couldn’t be controlled by her, and in her master’s case, it was her heart.
The carriage slowly headed towards the Lou residence.
But midway, it suddenly seemed to step on something as it b.u.mped up.
Inside, Lou Qingwu and Lan Bai were shaken a bit before the carriage suddenly stopped.
Lan Bai lifted up the curtain, sticking her head out.
“What is it?”
“Miss Lan Bai, there’s a small child blocking the way.” The driver was scared he’d get blamed so he quickly pointed at the culprit.
Lan Bai followed the driver’s finger and saw a small child of about 7-8 years old.
He wore tattered clothes and stood right in front of the carriage.
In one hand,k there was a small bowl as he held it towards them, “Young miss, madam, give me a bite to eat please. This small one has already starved for three days …”
A piteous voice cried out, sounding extremely tragic.
Lou Qingwu heard movement and also stuck her head out.
When her eyes accidentally fell on a string tied to the little beggar’s waist, her eyes darkened.
On the other hand, Lan Bai saw how pitiful the little beggar looked and had already reached for her pouch.
She quickly fished out a small tael of silver and threw it inside the little beggar’s bowl, “Alright, alright. I’ve already given you some silver. Quickly give way, we’re busy.”
But the little beggar still stood in the way and didn’t move.
His big eyes stared concentratedly at the pouch in Lan Bai’s hand.
“This miss, give me a bit more. My little sister is sick too, she has to see a doctor urgently. Please, please, you’ll live for a hundred years.”
Lan Bai was so angry, her eyes were about to roll backwards.
This little shameless beggar, what was the point in her living for so long?
She was clearly being scammed!
Just as she was about to tell the beggar to leave again, Lou Qingwu stopped her.
Suddenly, she took a few more looks at the little beggar.
When her eyes fell on the beggar’s dark eyes, she stopped.
“Your sister’s sick?”
“Yes, this little miss, please give me a bit more.”
“Then let’s follow you to see your sister.”
“Ah?” The little beggar froze before instantly strangely swallowing.
He laughed, “Alright.”
