Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Hurriedly leaving, her delicate body trembled.

”Miss Bai, can we talk?” Yuchi proactively said to Bai Sisi, who was about to leave.

Bai Sisi turned her head mechanically towards Yuchi, admiring his kindness and handsomeness. Meanwhile, she glanced at Zong Qianqun nearby, who was truly graceful and beautiful. Finally, she looked at her own figure, feeling a bit self-deprecating, and nodded:

”Sir, do you have something to discuss?”

”Just a minor thing.”

”A minor thing, huh.” Bai Sisi felt like crying; who would believe it’s just a minor thing? But she still said, ”Please come with me, both of you.”

...

In the conference hall, the decorations were elegant, with icicles dripping from the eaves, and the packed snow crunched underfoot as they walked.

”Miss Bai, what was going on with that little girl earlier?” Yuchi asked with a smile.

Indeed, it was because of An Xiaoning. As expected, he had observed everything earlier... Bai Sisi thought for a moment and responded:

”Answering Master Zong’s question, that little girl is An Xiaoning. She joined our Wanjian Manor before and is currently just a servant, mainly chopping firewood, cooking, and such tasks. She fell into the river a few days ago, which led to that incident. I apologize for the scene you witnessed. Normally, Wanjian Manor isn’t like that.”

Bai Sisi felt truly hopeless.

She had confirmed Yuchi and Zong Qianqun’s identities—they were masters her father had to respect. Seeing such a scene must have made them think Wanjian Manor bullied its servants.

”Is that so? Then are you willing to part with her?” Yuchi continued with a smile.

Beside him, Zong Qianqun showed a ”just as expected” expression.

She had figured out Yuchi’s intentions. This man wanted to take An Xiaoning under his wing. It seemed that Ascension Gate was indeed in need of people, but it was unknown how talented An Xiaoning was. Did Yuchi really want to recruit her?

”Part with her?”

Bai Sisi fell into confusion. Why did he suddenly bring this up? Why would they want to part with her?

Could it be...

Could it be that they wanted to buy An Xiaoning from Wanjian Manor?

To rescue the so-called ”fallen girl”?

No way! Did they really misunderstand Wanjian Manor? Her heart sank to the bottom of an icy pit as she quickly said, ”Master Zong, we truly don’t bully An Xiaoning. She’s doing very well at Wanjian Manor. You’ve misunderstood.”

Why are you so afraid of me? I’m not going to hurt you... Yuchi said with a smile:

”That’s not what I meant. I just find this little girl interesting. I happen to need someone to serve tea and pour water. So if Wanjian Manor is willing to part with her, I think she and I would get along well, right, my beloved wife?”

If one person couldn’t convince them, then two would do. Yuchi shifted his gaze to Zong Qianqun.

This man is taking advantage of me again, Zong Qianqun glared at Yuchi with her beautiful eyes. Seeing the plea in Yuchi’s earnest eyes, she smiled helplessly and said, ”Yes, Miss Bai, rest assured, we don’t have any ill intentions towards Wanjian Manor. We merely find this situation amusing, and I also like An Xiaoning. I just simply want a little maid.”

Bai Sisi felt slightly relieved. She couldn’t tell if they were speaking sincerely or falsely, but given the current situation, it didn’t seem impossible: ”If An Xiaoning herself agrees to go with you, we won’t stop her. After all, fate is quite important, as it was fate that brought us together at Wanjian Manor.”

Yuchi: ”She will agree.”

Bai Sisi: ”Are you so sure?!”

Of course, I am sure. Whether she belongs to Ascension Gate or not, I can see it at a glance. Yuchi glanced at Zong Qianqun beside him, and feeling her coquettish gaze, he collected his thoughts and said to Bai Sisi: ”In that case, Miss Bai, shall we ask her personally? Otherwise, perhaps discuss it with the Manor Master. We highly respect the Manor Master.”

Flaunting love leads to quick downfall; Bai Sisi enviously looked at the couple’s affection, then nodded mechanically: ”It’s not necessary, Seniors. I can make this decision myself. My father won’t mind in the least. Please follow me. I’ll take you to find An Xiaoning.”

...

An Xiaoning had no idea she had already been singled out. She was filled with melancholy, wandering from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard where servants should be. Before she could return to her wood shed, several men with ashen faces appeared in front of her.

”An Xiaoning, as a girl, your life is truly tough. You survived even this, and it really surprised us!”

”Indeed, you’re quite lucky, even gaining entry to Wanjian Manor’s main courtyard, which none of us have ever entered!”

”Alright, thanks to you, we have our pay docked this month. We didn’t have much to begin with, and now you’ve really put us in a bad spot!!”
