Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 520: Changing feelings
" Achoo! Achoo!" Liu Hui Ying sneezed as Nanny Gong rubbed a medicinal liquid on her legs and arms. The elderly woman was simply distressed to the point that she wanted to go out and look for the blood of the man who caused Liu Hui Ying to be allergic to men.
" I cannot believe… Missy, why did you not tell me? If I had known…" she broke away with a shake of her head. But Liu Hui Ying knew what Nanny Gong wanted to say to her, however, Liu Hui Ying had no response to her answer. What was she supposed to say? That she was not attacked by a man in this era but some other era?
That poor woman might end up having a seizure.
Even though she did not like the previous Liu Hui Ying that much, as much she liked her. Of course, Liu Hui Ying knew that she was only making a deduction and there could be a possibility that she was wrong but she was willing to bet on it.
Who knows maybe she was much more well-liked than the predecessor?
Liu Hui Ying wanted to believe that she was the one who was liked more by Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai because she loved the way they cared for her. If she were to find out that they only cared because of their emotions for the predecessor, then she was going to be really upset/
Nanny Gong did not know the kind of thoughts that were going on in Liu Hui Ying's head. She finished rubbing the medicinal liquid on Liu Hui Ying's hands and legs before saying, " This should take care of the itching and the scars." She wiped the sweat on her forehead as if she had just finished a very difficult task.
When Liu Hui Ying saw herself covered in medicinal liquid her lips twitched, and she had to scrunch up her nose because this liquid smelled really bad. The only good part was that the itching had stopped and she did not feel like scratching a layer of her skin down.
She then remembered the mutton cakes that she had bought when she was strolling outside and said to Xiao Ai," I brought mutton cakes for you two. You must have grown tired of eating the vegetable meals that are served here right?"
Xiao Ai felt her eyes burn with tears. They were indeed quite hungry. Once they were thrown into the cold palace even the servants dared to bully them. Even though his majesty never said anything, those dirty and pesky servants dared to bully them under the orders of the concubines, some gave them food which was spat on and some gave them only boiled vegetables and rice.
During these two days, they had been tormented to the point that Xiao Ai was going crazy. She never thought that her missy would remember the two of them when she went out and would even buy some mutton cakes for them.
Her eyes were red as she wiped them with her sleeves and said, " Then thank you, your majesty."
" What are you saying thank you for?" Liu Hui Ying pinched Xiao Ai's cheeks before saying, " I didn't do anything to be thanked? You two were dragged here because of me."
Liu Hui Ying was really thankful for Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai's loyalty, the two of them could have betrayed her and gone to someone else but they didn't instead they stayed with her and waited for the verdict.
When Liu Hui Ying thought about how these two women were willing to die with her, she couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth in her heart. When she was working as a detective there were many officers under her but none of them stayed loyal to her, one of them even sold her out to the other fraction when their lives were in danger. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Thus, it wasn't surprising that she was touched by their loyalties.
Xiao Ai smiled at Liu Hui Ying's words. She dragged Nanny Gong and finished the mutton cakes that Liu Hui Ying brought for them, as the two ate the mutton cakes their tears almost flowed out of their eyes.
Wuuuu… it had only been three days ever since they did not eat a good meal but the two of them were on the verge of breaking down.
" Nanny Gong, missy has gotten better right? In the past she would never buy us anything," Xiao Ai remarked as she bit into the delicious mutton cake.
In the past, Liu Hui Ying would buy something for Master Shen but she would never buy anything for the two of them.
" Shh," Nanny Gong looked at Liu Hui Ying who had closed her eyes and then poked Xiao Ai on the forehead with an eye roll. " What are you saying this nonsense for? Do you think that you have a lot to say? We are just servants and servants cannot discuss the matters of their master.
What they give you, you accept them happily and what they do not give you, as a loyal servant you should not worry about it at all."
Nanny Gong was also confused by the changes but she was happy. At least now her missy did not throw tantrums and did not act like a fool who seemed to have no understanding of how the world worked.
Xiao Ai rolled her eyes and then said, " I know Nanny Gong. I was just saying that Missy has changed." She softened her voice as she looked at the half-eaten mutton cake and then said, " I hope she stays like this always." Continue your adventure with novelbuddy
The two women thought that Liu Hui Ying was asleep but the latter was awake and even though her eyes were closed she could hear everything that the two of them were saying. Stay the same always? That was not going to happen.
After all, she was going to return to her time after she got hold of the real Liu Hui Ying of this era. This was the plan…so why did her heart hurt so much?
