"E- e... Xin-Xingming!" Raymond stammered. He didn't know what to say.
'How long has she been here?' Raymond was deeply worried. 'Did she heard me, that what I said?'
Xingming's head was tilted to the right. For some reason, he was wearing round glasses right now. This look was pretty sweet.
'What is Young Master doing here? Alone?' Xingming said in her own mind.
'I can't be! Did I disturb his rest?' She took her thin little fingers out of her jacket and closed her mouth. Her face looked quite surprised.
She wrinkled her eyebrows in annoyance. 'I hope the young master doesn't get angry.' She prayed inside.
They stared eachother for a while.
'She doesn't say anything. Maybe she just got here and heard nothing?' Raymond mustered up his courage and decided to give it a try.
Raymond decided to talk to Xingming as if she were a maid. Although she really is...
"I-It doesn't concern you." He regretted it, as he said. His forehead sweated. He panicked. He hastily tried to fix it.
"So actually, Well... You know... MM..." But he couldn't. "You know, yes. That's why… Well… That's why I don't need to tell you because you already know, right?"
Raymond's back was bent. His hands were going this way and that as he tried to explain himself.
Two forces were fighting within him. One of them was telling him that there was a maid in front of him. It was the young master side. The other side was telling him not to annoy her or else she was going to yell at him. It was the Raymond side, an orphan with an inferiority complex.
This one is his actual personality. After all, for many years Raymond was like a beggar running around in the outer city, which had great respect and fear for the 'Awakened'.
Because these two sides collided, he was messed up while he was speeking.
Fortunately, Xingming had her own trouble. She just wanted her young master not to be angry with her.
She lowered her hand. She frowned. She thought seriously.
Then, like lightning, the answer came.
She made a fist with one hand and struck the other. She looked at Raymond with an expression of understanding.
"Because of these girls who came to our hill for train, right? I know they were terrible and too weak. Because of that, you, young master offended that they're so bad. Am I right?" Xingming said she guessed as if she understood everything.
'Are they too weak?' Raymond thought in shock. 'As I guessed, this girl is a different beast.'
"Ye...Yes!" Raymond said vaguely. "They're very loud." Then he muttered.
"Yes, young master, you're right. They're very vocal. It means they still haven't stabilized their skill strength. They're nothing but vanity. They can't control their strength. Their roots and ability powers are in a position to enzigma to their soul..." Later, Xingming started to talk about the girls in a ton of terms Raymond couldn't understand.
Raymond felt dizzy. He immediately changed the subject:
"By the way, did you find the girl of the man in the ninja suit?" Raymond was really worried about it. He was also curious about the body, but was afraid to ask.
Xingming stopped chattering when she heard the question.
Bri was silent for a while. She bowed her head. Then she looked at Raymond, her eyes gleaming.
"Actually, we found your ID. The man's name is Adam." She said
Raymond was happy. He finally know the name of this brave man. Because of that he put his face a little smile.
Xingming shivered inside when she saw her young master smiling.
"But he didn't seem to come from any background. It was completely clean. He looked like an ordinary student on the Yellow Freckles hill. We could not reach a daughter or a family member. In fact, the family quit work here. But I kept on researching just because you said it."
Her eyes sparkled again as she spoke about it. The brilliance of the stars in her eyes felt like they were going to shatter her glasses.
Xingming asked excitedly. "Young master, I did indeed find a trace afterwards. Actually, his identity was different. Even his name was fake. He does indeed seem to have a family. How did you guess that? Even the company couldn't find it in the first place. The man told you before he died?"
"No, he didn't. It was a pretty sad death. He died right away." Raymond said with a sad face.
'Is he expressing regret that he died immediately and couldn't torture her?' Xingming thought with trembling inside. 'Really as in the rumors. The Lin Family's Young master is very ruthless. He's worth my service.'
"Guide me, young master." She considered herself inferior to her Young master in ruthlessness.
Xingming bowed her waist ninety degrees. She looked at Raymond with watery eyes.
Raymond's face went strange. 'What's happening?'
"What are you doing? Keep your head up! Why do you want guidance?" He said hastily.
Xingming straightened her back and said:
"I can't understand how you think and why you do this. I am very touched by what you have done. I consider myself minor to you. Teach me how to act with such sincerity." She spoke of cruelty and cruelty.
'Did this girl actually take pity on the man? Did it touch her that I wanted to help his family?' Raymond got it wrong. 'Actually this girl turned out to be very kind.'
Raymond's eyes lit up. He looked at Xingming from a different perspective.
They both looked at each other with bright eyes. It was as if they understood what the other party was thinking and said inside 'yes, I am too'. It was as if they had found a comrade.
But they thought completely differently.
"If that's the case, I'll tell you." Raymond said with a smile. 'I misunderstood this girl,' he thought to himself.
"I'm listening, young master." Xingming had taken out a notebook at one point. She looked like a very hardworking student with her glasses. 'Look at that smile, it's so cruel, as expected.' she thought to herself.
"You asked how I knew he had a family, didn't you?" He didn't hesitate. He lifted his head. He looked at Xingming proudly. He felt like he had done something big.
"Otherwise, why would he come here to get himself killed? Of course, his family is hostage." He said it slowly.
'So he wants to take his family hostage.' Xingming quickly wrote in her notebook.
Raymond jumped down. Now that Xingming was here, he was confident that he could drive out the squirrels who had invaded his hill.
Step by step he walked up the hill.
Xingming followed behind him. Respectfully, like a little student following her teacher.
"Well, why did you want to find his family, especially his daughter?" Xingming understood that they would be taken hostage. But she didn't quite understand why.
As Raymond walked, he put one hand behind him, one hand raised. Raised his index finger.
"There's a saying. It's often said to comfort people and the children left behind." He lifted his head. He looked at the sky. "She or He is watching us in a good place."
After saying that, he stopped and looked at Xingming with a smile.
"I want to show that man's soul his daughter's bright future. Because he is watching us from somewhere." Then he folded both hands behind his back and continued walking towards the hill.
He was very proud of himself with his eyes closed. 'Today too, we taught someone how to be kind.' A small 'hehe' came out of his mouth.
Xingming froze in place. Her hair stood on end. She was looking at Raymond with both shock and excitement.
Especially the last laugh chilled her blood. She was trembling with excitement.
'I found him. I finally found the person to follow. He's so cruel. Far beyond my expectations. Young master... You actually want to torture that man's soul. I look forward to how you will do this.' She wildly jotted everything down in her notebook.
Then she ran after Raymond.
In the other hand, Raymond was happy to be able to guide someone about kindness.
