Chapter 1195: Chapter 1194: Lü Donglin’s Maid

Zheng Tuo was timid and suspicious, so he got scared off by Lü Donglin’s empty fort strategy. The same tactic, used on someone else, might not have had this effect.

Lü Donglin rested a bit more to recover some of his True Qi then immediately got up and carried Su Yang away from the inn.

The place was still unsafe. He needed to find a secure location to treat their wounds first.

By now, it was early morning, and Lü Donglin, carrying Su Yang in the alleys, didn’t attract any attention.

Crossing the area, Lü Donglin reached an obviously abandoned house and hid inside with Su Yang.

They got through the night without incident. At midnight, Su Yang woke up and took out some elixirs he had made, sharing some with Lü Donglin.

After taking the elixirs, both sat in quiet meditation to heal. By dawn, their injuries were about seventy percent healed.

At this point, even if Smiling Hidden Knife, who hadn’t been wounded, personally came, he wouldn’t be able to kill the two of them. They had finally gotten through this crisis.

Having passed through the gates of hell, both were covered in blood. Seeing each other’s state, they burst into hearty laughter.

"Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a drink today!" Lü Donglin said with a laugh.

"No returning until we’re drunk!" Su Yang replied laughingly.

The two left the broken house, and Lü Donglin contacted his people. Soon, several cars arrived.

The previous night, when Lü Donglin hadn’t returned, his men couldn’t reach him and immediately came to search the vicinity. They had only heard that Lü Donglin and Su Yang were ambushed, but nobody knew where they went afterward, causing Lü Donglin’s men to panic and search the area all night.

So, when they received Lü Donglin’s call, they could arrive in the shortest time, as they were all nearby.

Su Yang and Lü Donglin left by car, heading to a villa not far from there that belonged to Lü Donglin.

After changing into clean clothes, the two finally sat down at the table.

Lü Donglin’s three maids were all there. Seeing the two men arrive, they immediately brought over wine bottles and respectfully poured drinks for them.

Bai Qing sat on the side; she had already heard about last night’s events and felt a chill of fear. Knowing Su Yang had risked his life to save Lü Donglin, she felt much more grateful to him.

"Brother Su, thank you so much this time!" Bai Qing said earnestly. "I was foolish before; I apologize to you. From now on, anyone who crosses you is crossing me—I will absolutely stand by your side!"

Su Yang laughed, "Miss Bai, don’t speak like that. I’m the type who always acts according to my own preferences, so I’ve made quite a few enemies. If you were to take my side, just think how many people you might offend. As a young lady, you’d be better off avoiding such trouble!"

"You make it sound like I’m afraid of trouble!" Bai Qing retorted, glaring.

"Hahaha..." Su Yang immediately laughed, "Of course, Miss Bai isn’t afraid of trouble. But I have to be responsible for you. Imagine if you got drawn into some major affair because of me; your brother would surely have my head!"

Bai Qing then cracked a small smile. Lü Donglin had always been very kind to her, and that was something she took great pride in.

"Alright, enough of that talk, let’s drink!" Lü Donglin raised his cup with a smile.

Without any hesitation, Su Yang lifted his cup and drained it in one go.

After a few rounds of drinks, Su Yang cast a casual glance behind Lü Donglin at the two maids massaging his shoulders and frowned slightly, "I say, Lin Zi, just us few here, can’t you drop the act? Sure, put on a show for those young dandies outside, but do you have to do it in front of me? These girls have their own families. Making them serve you, running around at your beck and call, isn’t that a bit much?"

Su Yang’s relationship with Lü Donglin was close enough for him to voice this concern. Of course, he had long disapproved of Lü Donglin’s behavior.

Lü Donglin just smiled without responding, but Bai Qing couldn’t help but interject, "Brother Su, you’ve got my brother all wrong. The three of them serve him not because he demands it, but because they want to!"

"What voluntary or not, isn’t it all about money?" Su Yang scoffed.

"What nonsense!" Bai Qing said directly, "You three, tell him, has my brother paid you anything?"

The three girls shook their heads simultaneously, causing Su Yang to widen his eyes in shock, looking at Lü Donglin, "Lin Zi, you haven’t even paid them, don’t tell me you’ve been forcing these girls against their will?"

"What are you talking about!" Bai Qing immediately said, "All three of them were rescued by my brother. Take the twin sisters, for example, they caught the attention of an old devil when they were just ten and were snatched by him. Since they were young, they were raised to serve him. That old devil cultivated the despicable Dual Cultivation Secret Technique, and when the twins were young, they were kept as maids. Probably by the age of fourteen, they would have been turned into his Furnace Cauldrons."

"My brother, on his very first journey out, encountered the two of them and risked his life to save them from the pursuit of that old devil. After being chased for a thousand miles and narrowly escaping death several times, they finally made it back to the Northern Three Provinces. It was only after Brother Xue Nu cleaved that old devil in half that my brother’s life was spared. Despite the danger, my brother didn’t abandon them and brought them back to the Northern Three Provinces."

"After the old devil died, my brother gave each of the girls some money and arranged for their safe escort home. But they didn’t want to leave, choosing to stay by my brother’s side to repay his life-saving grace. That’s why they’ve stayed like this!"

Su Yang was dumbfounded. He hadn’t known about any of this. He had always assumed these maids were drawn to Lü Donglin by money and power. He had never imagined such a story!

"People like them, my brother has saved too many to count. Just look at the people around my brother; the majority of them owe him their lives and follow him wholeheartedly," Bai Qing said, "Brother Su, do you think Uncle Beigong controls the entire Northern Three Provinces with sheer force alone? It’s one thing to live with strength, but to be revered by all, that’s something else!"

Su Yang took a deep breath, feeling a strong sense of agreement with Bai Qing’s words. He picked up the cup on the table and said loudly, "Lin Zi, enough talk, down this drink I shall!"

After draining his cup, Lü Donglin also joined in with a light laugh, "These are all old stories. As my friend, knowing them does no harm, lest misunderstandings form in your heart. As for what others think, let them think what they will. Lü Donglin acts in ways that my conscience can bear, and that’s good enough for me!"

"A fine sentiment, acting according to your own conscience!" Su Yang laughed again, "Come on, another drink!"
