Chapter 81 Strange
Chapter 81: Strange

As if she had made a major, life-or-death decision, she bit her lip and said, "As long as you are willing to help, whether or not I can rescue my brother, I am willing to sell myself as a slave and serve you like a slave for the rest of my life!"

Ye Xuan shook his head and sighed, but finally he softened his heart and said, "I didn't expect Fatty Huang actually has a sister like you who is so loyal and righteous. Well, what's your name?"

It can be seen that the girl is naive and innocent. When she heard this, she didn't understand whether Ye Xuan agreed or not. She just stared at Ye Xuan blankly and replied, "My name is Huang Ying."

Qiuyan, on the other hand, was kindhearted. Perhaps she saw her own shadow in Huangying yesterday, so she reminded him, "Silly girl, your brother is saved. My young master has agreed."

"Ah!" Huang Ying finally woke up from her dream and kowtowed to Ye Xuan: "Thank you, sir. I will serve you like a slave!"

"Hurry up and get up. I will try to find out about Fatty Huang's matter when I go to the government office." Perhaps it was the modern human soul at work, Ye Xuan couldn't bear to see ordinary people kneeling in front of him.

Of course, those who have their homes confiscated and are executed for committing crimes do not have these burdens.

Huang Ying stood up carefully after hearing this, and when she saw Ye Xuan was about to leave, she hurriedly followed him.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan turned around and looked at Huang Ying, and said with a smile: "Why, are you afraid that I won't keep my word?"

When Huang Ying heard this, she immediately burst into tears. She was afraid that Ye Xuan would ignore her if he got upset, so she said hesitantly, "No, no, no, I have already sworn to sell myself as a slave to you, sir. Whether it succeeds or not, I am yours from now on, so I will naturally take care of you!"

Ye Xuan waved his hands unhappily and said, "I'm not helping you just to make you my slave. Anyway, go back and wait for my news."

After saying that, he turned around helplessly and went home.

Huang Yin deliberately seemed a little at a loss, thinking that he had done something wrong and annoyed Ye Xuan.

I stood there, tears about to fall.

Qiuyan, who was standing at the side, saw this and said with some pity and amusement: "My master has this temper. He will never break his promise to you."

Huang Ying grabbed Qiu Yan's hand as if she had found a life-saving straw, and asked anxiously, "Sister, why did the adults chase me away?"

Thinking back to that night on the flower boat, Ye Xuan let me go without asking for anything in return. Even when I came to him and expressed my willingness to stay in the Ye Mansion without asking for a penny, Ye Xuan didn't seem very happy.

Qiuyan could see that the reason Ye Xuan finally agreed to take her in was mainly out of sympathy.

So naturally, he agreed to help Huang Ying not because of his desire for her beauty.

At best, the little girl Huang Ying looks well-behaved and cute. She is indeed a little girl who is easy to be lovable, but in terms of beauty and charm, she is naturally far inferior to herself.

If it was really because of her beauty, Ye Xuan would have been eager to take her in last night.

After realizing this, Qiuyan patted the back of Huangying's hand and comforted her, "My master didn't help your brother just because of you. It was simply because he was soft-hearted. But if you insist on repaying him, people will think that my master is greedy for something from you."

Looking at Huang Ying's face that seemed to understand, Qiu Yan said angrily, "Anyway, just be at ease!"

By the time Ye Xuan got dressed and went out, Huang Ying was no longer there.

I originally thought that with that little girl's personality, she would wait at the door all the time, but I didn't expect that she had disappeared.

Qiuyan, who sent Ye Xuan to the door, seemed to understand what Ye Xuan was thinking and said with a smile: "Young Master, I have already persuaded that girl to go back and wait for your news." Ye Xuan didn't say anything, but nodded secretly in his heart.

It seems that this prostitute who hangs out in the red-light district does have some ability to deal with people. Ye Xuan was originally worried that Huang Ying would want to follow him because she was concerned about Fatty Huang's comfort. This would easily lead to misunderstandings, and people would think that he was concerned about Fatty Huang's case because he had some plans for his sister.

In that case, for the sake of his own innocence, no matter how soft-hearted he was towards Huang Ying, he could only stand by and watch.

From this point of view, although Qiuyan is a prostitute, she is actually quite kind-hearted.

After the hour of Mao, Ye Xuan went straight to the room of Commander Mao Xiang.

Mao Xiang knocked lightly on the door out of habit. He looked over and saw that it was Ye Xuan. He immediately waved enthusiastically and said, "Hey, you guys are the ones who would take the initiative to come to me?"

Ye Xuan touched his nose in embarrassment when he heard that. In order to avoid being a mess, he always kept his distance from the higher-ups in the Pacification Office.

He even tries to avoid his immediate boss Wei Qingming as much as possible, for fear that his superiors will throw some tasks at him as soon as they see him. Wouldn't that affect his enjoyment of life?

As for Mao Xiang, it is even more desirable not to see him if possible.

This is the first time that someone has come to me on their own initiative like today.

Inviting Ye Xuan to sit down, Mao Xiang looked at Ye Xuan with a smile and said jokingly: "Tell me, you don't come to see me for no reason, what are you doing here?"

Ye Xuan was not polite either. He sat down and got straight to the point: "Master Mao, I heard that you have dismissed Fatty Huang and put him in jail?"

When Mao Xiang heard Ye Xuan mention this, his expression suddenly became serious, "Did His Majesty ask you to ask this?"

Ye Xuan was stunned. Although Zhu Yuanzhang did seem to want to use him recently, judging from what Mao Xiang said, could it be that the case of Fatty Huang, a minor deputy captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, had alarmed him?

Ye Xuan did not lie, but told the truth: "No, it's just that Fatty Huang's sister came to me for help. After all, we are colleagues, so I couldn't bear it..."

After listening to Ye Xuan's explanation of the whole story, Mao Xiang seemed relieved.

"Ye Xuan, let me tell you the truth, there is something fishy about Fatty Huang's case." Mao Xiang said solemnly.

Ye Xuan was shocked when he heard this, and then asked: "Master Mao, what does this mean?"

Mao Xiang frowned slightly, showing that he was weighing whether or not to tell Ye Xuan the inside story.

After a moment, Mao Xiang's brows suddenly relaxed and he said with a smile: "How could I have forgotten about you, a talent like you? You are the best person to handle this case!"

Ye Xuan suddenly regretted being soft-hearted and now wished he had not entered Mao Xiang's room.

Because of Mao Xiang's words and actions, Ye Xuan had a bad feeling. It seemed that Fatty Huang's case was not that simple.

However, it was difficult for Ye Xuan to leave now. Mao Xiang had already patted Ye Xuan's shoulder with a smile and handed him a stack of files, "Take a look. Tell me what you think after you finish reading it."
