Chương 8: Young Maid
Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Di Beiming slapped Yun Chujiu's chest, a pure white handkerchief appeared in his hand, seemingly out of the blue. He violently rubbed Yun Chujiu's dark and skinny wrist with it a few times before he touched her hand. He made it look like he was touching a pile of poop while he was doing all that.
There was a dumbfounded expression on the faces of An Feng and the other men in black. They were now beginning to wonder whether there were a few screws loose in their Supreme Lord's head. A few moments ago, he was sucking that dark-skinned girl's finger, but in the blink of an eye, he started to be disgusted by the fact that she was dirty.
After a short while, Di Beiming furrowed his eyebrows. He seemed to be a little confused about something.
"An Feng, stay here and protect this dark-skinned thing in secret. As long as her life isn't in danger, you don't have to do anything."
Di Beiming simply tossed the handkerchief on the ground and instantly disappeared with the rest of the men in black. An Feng was left dumbfounded and alone in the place. 'Supreme Lord, what do you mean?
'You want me to stay in the Qingxuan Continent, which is in the middle of nowhere, to protect this dark-skinned girl?
'Don't you think that you're wasting my talent on a petty job?
'And what's the use of this dark-skinned girl? Why on earth would you want to protect her?
'Since you want to protect her, why did you smack her so hard that she fainted?
'Plus, I don't have to do anything as long as her life isn't in danger? What exactly did you mean by that?!!'
That was when a girl ran into the courtyard. and An Feng immediately hid.
"Young Mistress, Young Mistress! Are you okay?" the girl, a young maid, quickly called out when she saw Yun Chujiu lying on the ground.
Yun Chujiu opened her eyes in a daze. 'I'm not dead yet? That pretty boy didn't kill me?'
Yun Chujiu sized the young maid up. Her original persona had chased away all the maids in her residence so that she could secretly meet up with Bai Moyu. She only allowed Chun Yu—an obedient maid who also happened to be a scaredy-cat—stay.
The other reason her original persona let the maid stay was that her "Yu" sounded the same as the "Yu" in Bai Moyu's name. Seriously, that girl was obsessed with Bai Moyu!
Chun Yu was retrieving some hot water from the boiler room earlier. When she saw Yun Chujiu lying like a dead fish on the ground after she returned to the courtyard, she panicked immediately!
"I'm okay. Did you hear anything just now?" Yun Chujiu looked around. Her door was shattered, and they must have caused a huge ruckus just now, so why did no one come to check things out?
"No. Ah, Young Mistress! Why is the door shattered?" It was only then that Chun Yu realize that the door had been reduced to pieces.
Yun Chujiu immediately thought that pretty boy had probably used some divine art to insulate the sounds that they had produced earlier. 'God, this pretty boy is so powerful that he's unfathomable! Just who the heck is he?'
"It's an old door. It probably broke due to years of wear and tear as well as disrepair. Just ask someone to install a new door," Yun Chujiu said nonchalantly.
Chun Yu gaped like a fish. A door would not shatter just because of disrepair, would it? But she had always been very frightened of Yun Chujiu's original persona, so she did not dare comment. After all, Yun Chujiu's original persona often took out her anger on Chun Yu when she was in a bad mood.
"Young Mistress, what's with the clothes you're wearing?" Chun Yu looked suspiciously at the clothes on the ground and then at the Snow Silk Brocade Shirt that Yun Chujiu was wearing.
Yun Chujiu was about to say something when she heard footsteps! 'Oh my, someone is here!'
Yun Chujiu nimbly grabbed the dirty clothes on the ground and put them on.
'Huh, where did this handkerchief come from?'
Yun Chujiu picked up the handkerchief and suddenly recalled the burning pain she felt when Di Beiming rubbed her wrist with it. Her eyes flashed dangerously, and she cursed Di Beiming over and over again (probably hundreds of times) in her heart. 'This pretty boy is a huge perv! He was totally fine with wrapping his mouth around MY finger and sucking MY blood, and he has the galls to pretend to be a germaphobe?!'
However, why did that pretty boy press her wrist? Was he checking if she was dead?
Yun Chujiu noticed that a weird-looking fish was embroidered at one of the handkerchief's corners. Her eyes darkened, and she put away the handkerchief.
It was proof of the pretty boy's crime. One day, when she became mighty and powerful, she would definitely torture the pretty boy a thousand times! She would make sure that he knelt down and submitted to her!
'Hmph!'
Just as Yun Chujiu's imagination ran wild, someone spoke respectfully outside the door, "Ninth Young Mistress, the head of the household has asked you to proceed to his study."
Chương 9: Find Me a Rope

Yun Chujiu turned and saw an old man standing outside the courtyard. She dug into her original persona's memory and found out that it was Butler Ji. Yun Xiaotian trusted him quite a lot.
Even though there was a respectful expression on Butler Ji's face, Yun Chujiu could see the fury and disdain hidden beneath that facade. She could not help but laugh wryly in her heart. It seemed that she had a long way to go before she could clear her name.
"Butler Ji, please tell my grandfather that I'll go over once I get changed." Yun Chujiu bowed slightly and said politely.
Butler Ji was so shocked that he almost tripped. 'Is the ninth young mistress possessed by a ghost!? Why is she suddenly so polite?'
His heart then immediately sank. 'Oh, no! She must be acting this way because she feels guilty. Is the Soul-Gathering Pill already gone because of her?'
Just as Butler Ji was feeling surprised and bewildered, Yun Chujiu cleared her throat a few times and said a little awkwardly, "Um, Butler Ji, my room door broke down due to disrepair. Please do me a favor and arrange for a new one to be installed?"
"Of course, Ninth Young Mistress. It has been raining quite a lot lately, so it's probably worn down because of the humidity. I'll just ask someone to repair it."
"Ah... I don't think that it can be fixed. Butler Ji, you can take a look at it yourself." Yun Chujiu gestured for Butler Ji to come in from the entrance of the courtyard.
Butler Ji entered the courtyard with great suspicion in his heart, and he was so shocked that his eyeballs almost popped out of his eye sockets when he saw the sight before him!
'Goodness, the door was totally fine before this. How did it break down into bits in the blink of an eye?! Could someone be kind enough to provide me an answer?!
'The door is made of hemlock wood, for God's sake! Hemlock wood is almost as sturdy as iron weapons! Who exactly could be so powerful that they could reduce this door to pieces?!'
"Ninth Young Mistress, what… what on earth happened?"
"It was already like this when I returned. I don't know what happened either. It's probably due to years of disrepair. Don't you think so, Chun Yu?" Yun Chujiu lied with a straight face.
Chun Yu nodded subconsciously because the naive girl did not know who had destroyed the door either.
Butler Ji grabbed a handful of the shattered pieces of wood and ran off at lightning speed as if he was being chased by a rabid dog.
Yun Chujiu pursed her lips and softly muttered, "Why is he still getting so easily worked up at his age? Even our Chun Yu is more level-headed than him!"
There was a blush on Chun Yu's petite face. The young mistress seemed different, but she really liked how her young mistress was acting right now.
The pair entered the bedroom, and Yun Chujiu intended to take off her dirty clothes so that she could change into a new outfit. The moment she opened her wardrobe, she could not help feeling bewildered.
'Well, would you look at that... There are only black clothes in the wardrobe!'
It was no wonder that Chun Yu looked at her like she had seen a ghost when she saw her wearing a silver and white robe just now.
Yun Chujiu dug into her original persona's memories and found the reason behind this. It was no other than the fact that Bai Moyu had told her she looked the best in black.
'What the heck?! You're already dark enough, yet you still wear black?! You'll just look like a black ball of charcoal!
'That scumbag was obviously mocking you, and you ACTUALLY believed him? You moron!'
Yun Chujiu spent a long time searching before she found a pearl white robe. That was the uniform for the Yun family's disciples. Her original persona had a great dislike for that robe, which was why it had been chucked into the corner of the wardrobe.
"Imbecile! F*cking idiot who doesn't know what's good for her!" Yun Chujiu cursed as she put on the pearl white robe.
Yun Chujiu looked at her reflection in the bronze mirror. When she took a good look at her dark complexion and her face, she noticed that her facial features were pretty exquisite. Yun Chujiu was rather pleased with the sight. At the end of the day, she did not look too ugly.
Chun Yu stood next to her, and even though the young maid found it weird that her young mistress was muttering to herself, she did not dare comment on it. She merely stood obediently by the side.
"Chun Yu, go and find me a rope." A cunning glint flashed in Yun Chujiu's eyes.
"Young Mistress, you mustn't take your own life! If you die, your humble servant will join you in the afterlife!" At that point, Chun Yu could no longer care about her fear of Yun Chujiu, she just cried out in alarm.
"What do you mean, take my own life? Geez, I'm not trying to hang myself! Hurry up and find me a rope!" Yun Chujiu glared at Chun Yu, and the young maid got so scared that she shrank back. She then left obediently to look for a rope.
Yun Chujiu rubbed her chin. It appeared that her original persona was not completely useless. She had trained the young maid to be pretty obedient.
