Chapter 835: Waste of Talent?

Xie San asked, “Is Ninth Master still accompanying Young Madam?”

Xie Qi nodded. “Young Madam has been sick for the past few days, so Ninth Master has been taking care of her personally.”

Xie Er said, “But even if Young Madam is sick, it shouldn’t affect Ninth Master’s work!”

As soon as these words were out, the atmosphere froze. Xie Qi frowned and said, “Xie Er, you don’t often serve Ninth Master. Let me give you a warning. You must never say such words again, especially not in front of Ninth Master. You don’t understand how important Young Madam is to Ninth Master, and it’s even more so for us. Therefore, no matter how much time Ninth Master spends with Young Madam, it’s definitely not a waste of time, much less delay work.”

Xie Er curled his lips in dissatisfaction as he listened to Xie Qi’s reprimand. He and Xie San were not like Xie Qi, who was always at Xie Jiuhan’s beck and call. All these years, they had been on the Sacred Island, nurturing and training batch after batch of bodyguards who served the Xie Corporation. This was also the first time they had seen the legendary Madam Xie.

Xie Qi said, “Xie Er, send two skilled people tomorrow and let them be in charge of bringing Young Madam around the Sacred Island. If the waves are calm, then bring Young Madam to the sea to play.”

Hearing this arrangement, Xie Er raised his eyebrows. “Bring Young Madam around the Sacred Island?”

Xie Qi nodded. “That’s right. This is the first time Young Madam has come to Sacred Island, so we naturally have to bring her around. Moreover, Young Madam is very gentle and amiable. She has never put on airs with us servants. According to what I know, Young Madam likes delicious food and some rare things. You can send two guards who are about the same age as Young Madam to bring her around.”

Xie Qi instructed, “Choose two of the core members to be Young Madam’s guide tomorrow.”

Xie San and Xie Er looked at each other. Xie Da, who was standing behind them, frowned and did not say a word. What did he mean by choosing two people from the core members to serve Young Madam? Wasn’t that equivalent to announcing in advance that those two people were the people Xie Jiuhan had taken a fancy to? Moreover, after such painstaking training, they were only chosen to be Young Madam’s tour guide? Wasn’t this a little too…

Xie San questioned, “Xie Qi, was this arrangement Ninth Master’s idea?”

Xie Qi understood what Xie San was thinking. He took a deep breath and said, “It’s not his idea, it’s his order. Ninth Master ordered it just now, so you have to choose the best guard to follow Young Madam. Do you understand?”

After knowing that it was Xie Jiuhan’s order, no matter how dissatisfied they were, Xie San and Xie Er could only carry it out. Hence, they sent a message to the core member group. “Xie Si, Xie Ba, I just received orders. Tomorrow, the two of you will be in charge of bringing Young Madam around the Sacred Island. If it doesn’t rain and the sea wind is relatively calm, then bring Young Madam to the surrounding sea to play. You guys have to be energetic the entire time and protect Young Madam’s safety. At the same time, you must let Young Madam have fun.”

Xie Si and Xie Ba: “???”

Their replies were filled with confusion, so Xie Ba asked, “Third Brother, Second Brother, what’s going on? Why did you send me and Fourth Brother to be Young Madam’s tour guide?”

After a few seconds, he sent a second message. “Fourth Brother is the head of the Human Resource Department after all, and I’m the deputy head of the combat department. I’ve been doing my best to prepare these few days. Don’t you think it’s a waste of our time to do such a thing?”

Looking at Xie Ba’s two messages, Xie Si did not send a single word. Although he was also very helpless, he was born a silent person. This should be Xie Jiuhan’s orders. Even if he did not understand or was dissatisfied, he would not say anything. To him, no matter what happened, as long as it was instructed by the higher-ups, he would do it!

Xie Er replied in the group, “This is all Ninth Master’s orders. He wants to choose two experts similar to Young Madam’s age to protect her.”

Xie Ba sent another message. “Forgive me for being blunt, but isn’t this making a mountain out of a molehill? She’s just strolling around the Sacred Island. At most, she’ll go to the sea to sail the s.h.i.+p. Why does she need us core members to act as bodyguards? Moreover, if Young Madam wants to go to the sea to play, shouldn’t we arrange for two experienced sailors for her?”

Xie Er replied, “I’ve already arranged for the sailors, but they’re only responsible for sailing the s.h.i.+p, while you and Fourth Brother are responsible for accompanying Young Madam to the sea and guaranteeing her safety.”
