New Vengeful Life - Taekook

Condition worse than a sw!ne

NovelToon
Cold winds suddenly rose in the inky darkness of the night, making the decay on the half broken and rotting residence door more noticeably appalling as it rattled in the wind...
A few elder maids passed through the courtyard hurriedly. A servant with a wider figure than the rest, who wore a green robe with her sleeves rolled up halfway, headed towards the innermost room with a food basket in hand.
A strange odour permeated throughout the residence. A younger maid, trailed behind her and whispered in the ears of the elder maid...
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
( scrunching her nose in disgust and whispers )
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
The smell is really unpleasant. I don’t know why Master arranged for that thing to be there. It is quite scary.
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
He should have just thrown that thing away instead of keeping it like this.
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
I feel so disgusted just by being present here. ( yucks and cried in disgust )
Chief maid
Chief maid
Maid Wang, speak less... ( in a annoyed yet cold tone )
Chief maid
Chief maid
I feel you forgot what you are and how you need to speak these days. ( giving her a side eyed look )
Chief maid
Chief maid
If anyone around us overhears, you won’t be spared.. ( shrugged arm to slide her hands away )
Arriving at the entrance, they slightly knocked on the dilapidated door. A middle aged, round-faced maid emerged from within and accepted the food basket with a sad and worried look before entering the house again. After a moment, she carried an empty food basket out. The chief maid looked at her and spoke in a little highly manner...
Chief maid
Chief maid
Master ordered us to bring the person into the room.
Maid Liang
Maid Liang
Is this for..... ( in an alarmed expression yet humble tone )
Chief maid
Chief maid
We do not need to know.. ( cutting her from speaking )
Chief maid
Chief maid
Its none of our business what the royals do. We just need to follow orders.. ( speaking little rudely )
Maid Liang
Maid Liang
I seek your forgiveness, elder maid. ( bows)
Chief maid
Chief maid
( beckoned maid Wang ) You.. come here..
Chief maid
Chief maid
Come here and bring the person over there... ( turns and faces back to maid Liang )
A lamp lit the house, brightening the hall slightly. Maid Wang pinched her nose as she entered the hall. She gasped noticing the thing that sat in the wooden tub type structure after several moments had passed. Seeing it for the first time, she almost threw up. She could not feel more disgust at anything elsw just at first sight. Over the course of the past few days, even if she had delivered food daily with the elder maid, she had never seen the person inside clearly. And now when she sees, she felt like puking. The thing in the wooden tub could no longer be referred to as “human”. All four of his limbs had been wounded as hell. Every inch had a deep and dirty cut or scratch. His rod-like body propped up, as it swayed in the wooden tub. His hair was bunched together, with small bits of debris scattered throughout. Yet he somehow looked as if he had some feminine essences......
As maid Wang dragged the tub out slowly, the elder maid stared at that crippled person sympathy flashing through her eyes. Although she did not have an inkling of this person's identity, this person had already been crippled to this extent, which will really make anyone feel pity for him. Furthermore, since Master had suddenly ordered them to bring this person out today, things did not bode well for her. What could she do infront of imperial orders... Though maid Wang felt afraid and disgusted, she did not dare to disobey her orders. Composing herself by closing her own nose with a cloth , she heaved and dragged the wooden tub out of the house. The person inside was lifelessly lying and did not struggle or cause a scene, as if he was already asleep.
As per the after Setting the wooden tub in the Master’s sleeping quarters maid Wang thought to herself as she stood near the wooden tub in that icey cold night...
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
**why did Master place this terrifying thing in the house? **
Maid Wang
Maid Wang
** something so horrible doesnt even suits the graveyard, and yet master wished you bring it to his sleeping quarters...**
As maid Wang was busy in her thoughts giving that person in the tub a disdain look, all of sudden she shivered. The person in the wooden tub suddenly opened his eyes, locking eyes with Wang. Oddly, this extremely frightening body had a pair of strikingly beautiful eyes, alluring and untainted, cold, yet moving, their clarity akin to water from a creek flowing through the green mountains as cold as serene as a stream in which anyone could wish to drown... Briefly stunned, maid Wang turned her head and bolted out of the house as she was confused with her thoughts about that wrecked till death being in the tub...
Jeon jungkook opened his eyes slowly. After languishing in the dark for a long time, he was unaccustomed to the light. When he considered the situation clearly, he could not help but laugh sorrowfully....
He was the eldest child of the Defense Minister and once, he had been the Beautiful prince Kwang. But now, he was treated as swine, unable to hold his head high ever again!!!!
Jungkook lay there reminiscing his dreadful life.... he then recalled his sixteen-year-old self, and the words of his father before he entered the palace...
Jeon Junghoon
Jeon Junghoon
Jungkook, since you are entering the palace as a concubine, the entire Jeon family supports you. You do not need to worry.You kept our pride. You saved my little child. i wish u luck ( with a grin )
Jeon Sui
Jeon Sui
( teary eyes and shakey voice ) Jungkook hyung , you are my savior. Even if I die, I won’t be able to repay your kindness.”
And he ( his husband) , clasping jungkook's hand in his....
Kwang Bogum
Kwang Bogum
Wait a little while longer. After some time has passed, I will marry you properly as my legitimate wife. ( caressed Jungkook's cheeks ) i will not let you down my beautiful. i promise this empire as a gift...
But now, his father had already risen to the rank of Prime Minister, a respected official, while his stepmother had become the Prime Minister’s wife. His younger sister had become the Empress, while that person( his husband ) ascended to the throne! They had already thrown him to the back of their minds, to the point of abandoning him and eventually killing him off.
Jungkook's pov
At the age of five, my biological mother passed away early and my elder brother too soon perished in war. My father’s concubine was promoted as the second wife. One day out of no where, a passing priest divined my birthdate and mentioned that i bore bad luck for my parents....I was then sent to a residence in a rural village. At nearly fifteen-years-old, i finally was recognized and brought back into the manor. Not long after, there was news from the palace that a child of the Jeon family had been chosen as the Emperor’s next concubine....Even though i kept trying to accept my situation, i could not endure pleasing the Emperor sexually. At my ripe, blooming age, i began to wilt in the inner palace. If it was not because of the constant comfort from Eighth Prince, i would have hung myself in the inner palace with a white cloth long ago.....Since childhood, apart from my deceased brother and mother, there wasn’t anyone else who treated me this considerately. I entrusted my heart to him, stopped causing a fuss and willingly settled in the palace to pass messages along, acting as a chess piece for him and the Jeon family.But as my destiny's dilema, Who could have guessed, after the Emperor was forced to abdicate and die tragically... what my life can be??they then imprisoned me, accusing me for murdering the Emperor, and laid the title of a ‘country-wrecking temptress‘ on me‼️
Jungkook's pov end...
When Jungkook stood on the platform, meeting the cold look of his father, he finally understood that he had been abandoned. As soon as he was of no use to them anymore, they deserted him. Trapped in the dark prison, he thought he had regained hope when someone saved him. But it was only the beginning of her nightmare. His innocent, fairy-like sister smiled faintly as she watched people cutting, bitting, scratching and molesting his limbs, reducing Jungkook to human swine. Jungkook felt despair, betrayed and anger, unwilling to be resigned to his fate. However when he heard his fairy-like sister continue....
Jeon Sui
Jeon Sui
Does Jungkook hyung know, I usually love cleanliness? I cannot even tolerate even a grain of sand, you are a grain of sand that I have already endured for many years. Now, it is time to clear you away.. ( sweet smile yet evil ) Eighth Prince is soon going to crown me as the Empress. Let me help Jungkook hyung enjoy the glory that you could not obtain.
Pain seeped into jungkook bones. He finally understood what true numbness was. However, Jungkook could not understand why Jeon Sui hated him to this extent....At that moment, Jeon Sui as if almost read his mind as she smirked and spoke..
Jeon Sui
Jeon Sui
Isn’t jungkook oppa's mother the beloved daughter of the General’s manor? Didn’t you rely on this presitigious identity to look down on me? What a pity! Yesterday, the General’s manor was executed in the afternoon bearing the crime of rebellion.. ( chuckled while saying )
Shock coursed through Jungkook like thunder. His mind was in complete chaos. The General’s manor was his maternal home. Although his mother had angered the General with her determination to marry Master Jeon in the past, and they had not communicated since, blood was still thicker than water. How could she escape the knife slicing through her heart?!
Jeon Sui
Jeon Sui
Is jungkook oppa angered by a mere provocation? Don’t be anxious. I still have a big gift for you. You shall receive it very soon....
Jungkook was sent to a dimly-lit house. After struggling for a few days to survive, he saw the light again today. The door opened with a sound. A fat man who reeked of alcohol, grabbed and threw a young boy onto the ground in front of him with a hideous expression. The young boy appeared to be struggling with all his might. When Jungkook looked at the boy’s face, red color drained from her face. It was as if he would die any moment... That was- Seo gguk‼️
The luck of palace ladies ran thin. There were many who could not bear the Emperor’s son, and many who passed away after they did. Seo gguk's biological mother was merely a lowly palace maid, meeting her death shortly after giving birth to Seo gguk. The Emperor did not value his low-born son. With a twist of fate, Jungkook became his foster mother. Seo Gguk howled as he struggled. Yet, he could not break free from the pair of hands on his privates. Jungkook only felt a chill encase his entire body. He had learned of the despicable acts that Grand Councillor Li Dong was capable of even before he entered the palace. But now, he could only stare at his own son being humiliated by this monster....He wanted to scream loudly. Yet, he could only produce hoarse and unclear sounds...General Li Dong eyed Jungkook with disgust and hatred as if he was someone lowly.. He was willing to take Seo Gguk to somewhere else and do what he was ordered to. But in end he bend to imperial power. He dared not take any other action, so he focused solely on harassing the semi-conscious child.
Jungkook sat inside the wooden tub. Only then did he realize why Jeon Sui had only left him a pair of eyes at this time. Jeon Sui wanted him to see his final relative die in front of him. Like a mannequin, he sat blankly in the wooden tub every scene from the past replaying in front of his eyes: the defeated look on his mother’s face before she passed, his father’s thin, cold smile, Eighth Prince’s vow, Jeon Sui thanking him as she held his hand, the Emperor’s cold detached eyes and his sufferings in the inner palace. In the end, everything morphed into the struggling, tearful Seo Gguk in front of his very eyes. Li Dong carelessly turned around, unexpectedly catching sight of the person in the tub. He finished his job and stood fixing his clothes. He shouted as he kicked lightly the unconscious body of Seo gguk on ground...A gaurd nearby came down running... The sight he saw froze him on his place. Sweat droplets forming on his forhead. He gulped on looking at Jungkook's condition and then at Seo Gguk who lay on the ground with some torn clothes attached to his body.... The gaurd shivered in his place but he dared not to disobey the imperial orders. Even he had sympathy in his eyes a little ago, now he needed to carry out the orders. So he kept his sword aside and took the old thick stick beside and striking both of the tortured souls... No one could hear the most profound curse that came from that person’s heart who was inside the tub...
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Even if I can never reincarnate, even if my ashes are scattered and I am dispersed, I am willing to become a vengeful spirit for eternity. Let those who harmed me pay their debt in blood! (he whispered before taking his final breath )
At the same time, inside Kwang palace.The newly-crowned Emperor lifted his eyes to gaze at the lady at the opposite of him. Her majestic phoenix crown and red cape coupled with her refined face made her seem unlike a mortal more like a fairy... The newly-crowned Emperor thought about Jeon Jungkook. Yet he realized that no matter how hard he tried to recall Jungkook , he remained a blurry shadow in his memory. With his tarnished reputation, he could only be at best, a boy with immense good looks and witt whom he was marrying for the immense power backing the Jeon family, so there was no difference between Jeon Jungkook and Jeon Sui. Since Jungkook had been the previous wife, he definitely would not marry him. Although Jungkook was now an abandoned chess piece, he still hesitated slightly. Many times, he had overcome many critical circumstances with the help of Jungkook in the past few years. Indeed, he had helped him quite a bit. But, why had he escaped from prison first without waiting for him to come to a decision????
Kwang Bogum
Kwang Bogum
There is still no news from Jeon Jungkook?? ( asked suddenly with a low voice )
Jeon Sui
Jeon Sui
No.... I believe that Jungkoo has taken Seo Gguk with him and escaped. Indeed, he has exhausted himself these past few years. However, regardless of the situation, he should not have doubted Your Highness…( making a innocent face )
He did not like the feeling of losing control. He wants everyone according to his wishes. His wish if he wants to torture or keep you with care.. He hated that Jungkook showed some bravery. The new Emperor tutted coldly... And then he extended his palm to his newly wed wife, Kwang Sui. They both stepped ahead to rule the world.
Definitely it's true that the survival of the fittest is must and the one with the power and wit rules. But when the wheel of destiny turns it makes all the impossible possible. All the things then automatically put into place as the game restarts and things have thier own places. And this time, justice plays.

New life in new year's eve

NovelToon
At a peasant’s residence with three green-tiled and red-walled rooms, the spacious courtyard was covered by layers and layers of accumulated snow. It was New Year’s Eve. Colorful paintings, depicting an abundant harvest of all food crops, were pasted at the entrance. Three fat, huge lanterns hung from the roof. Firecracker sounds could be heard from the outside. Occupants of the residence were beaming with happiness, in harmony with the feeling of a New Year’s Eve dinner.
NovelToon
A large group drank and gambled together. It was an extraordinary scene that was bustling with noise and excitement. At the same time, there was an atmosphere of bleak emptiness in the most remote residence of the peasant’s courtyard. A solitary room was dimly lit by a candle, which seemed as though it would be extinguishing soon.....
Shi Zhang sat in front of the residence, carefully adding firewood to the brazier. She was a maid there. As the firewood in the brazier caught fire, a pungent, thick smoke immediately pervaded the small residence.
Another maid with a petite figure ran towards the residence hurriedly as she picked a thin, shabby fan from the ground, before fanning it carefully. She scolded the first maid...
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Shi Zhang, you should be more careful. Our master's health has not recovered yet. What if he chokes?”
Shi Zhang curled her lips with an extremely angry expression. Yet, she still lowered her voice....
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
I do hope that there is not any smoke. Today, I went to find Song Lan family. I didn’t even request for fusain, just normal coal...
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
That bad mouth b*tch really has lots of guts.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
She has the nerve to blame the heavy usage over these past few days as the reason why there isn’t any more coal left in the storage...
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Bah! Who is she trying to deceive? At this time of the year, how can there be no coal in the residence? She is just taking advantage of her authority to bully us.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
I tell you noona Nam... If it wasn’t for our currently sick master, and I do not dare to worry him, I must slap her twice!
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
( sighed and spoke) You should restrain your stubbornness, Zhang. Although this family bullies us intolerably, we are still living under their roof.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
We have to lower our heads. If you really stir up trouble, our master will be the one who will suffer.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Noona Nam, I did not realize that you are this cowardly. What is the social standing of this family, and what is the social standing of our master?
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Regardless of what happens to our master, with his status, we cannot let these low-born people continue to bully him!!!
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
( patted Shi Zhang's shoulder )
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Both of us are our master’s maids. Of course, I want the best for him. It is just that, lately, there has been no news from the capital. I do not know how much longer our master has to stay here.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
It is fine if we are here for a short amount of time, but you see, it is already the fourth year now.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Head Master has never sent anyone to ask about our lovely master's well-being. If we still have to stay here for a longer time and you incite a dispute with those coal sellers, the one who suffers in the end is our master.
Shi Zhang stopped herself from replying. After a moment, her eyes became little sad and teary and she only spoke softly...
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Then should we just watch and let them bully our master, who is a innocent being, like this??
Nam Seok only sighed softly. What answer could she give her? The house fell into silence again. Only the firewood within the fire was crackling. The two maids kept the fire going with the fan in their hands. No one noticed that the person on the bed had awakened.
Jungkook had been awake for quite some time. Naturally, the conversation between Nam Seok and Shi Zhang reached his ears, word for word. When he opened his eyes, he was surprised to learn that he has transmigrated into his younger self from a decade ago. He couldn't believe himself. He wanted to confirm it when the maid's talk fell in his ears. The experience from his past life felt like a dream from an afternoon nap. However, he knew that his hatred of being callously killed was not something that could be dissipated by a dream. Since God has provided him with a chance to start over, he would not hesitate in accepting and availing it properly.
Jungkook had already been unconscious for more than ten days, since the day he fell into a lake. The medical practitioner that attended to him said he was incapable of defying fate. Song Lan family, the peasant's resident where jungkook was kept, even enquired about funeral rites. Who knew, he would wake up again....
After dying once, not only did the experiences from his past life not vanish like smoke into thin air, Jungkook could remember them even more clearly. When his mother passed away four years ago, a wandering priest came to the manor and certified his character to be bad luck for his parents. At first, Master Jeon wanted to send him to the family temple to be a nun. It was precisely because Jeon Sui kneeled and begged for mercy that Master Jeon changed his mind and sent him to a residence in a village instead. Because of this incident, Jungkook had a gratuitous heart for Jeon Sui. But, now that he had thought about it, all of the endless bullying and humiliation that he was being subjected to were bestowed by Jeon Sui and her mother.
The residence was entrusted to the care of Song Lan family. Song Lan was someone who was greedy for wealth, stingy and extremely shrewd. Every day, she did not fail to scold and humiliate Jungkook indirectly. Her husband, Chen Fu, was an alcoholic loafer and a gambling addict. They had a son and a daughter. The son, Chen Zhao, was a complete pervert. The daughter, Chen Fang, wielded sharp and unkind words. The pieces of jewelry and accessories that Jungkook brought with him when he initially arrived, either fell into Song Lan’s hands or were tricked away by Chen Fang. Ten days ago, Chen Zhao touched him inappropriately by the lakeside. He always had a bad eye over Jungkook's beauty . Jungkook could not bear the humility and jumped into the water. Chen Zhao escaped as soon as he realized that he had caused trouble. By the time Shi Zhang and Nam Seok asked someone to save Jungkook, he had already lost his consciousness...
As it was during the final days of the lunar year, the lake water was cold and piercing to the bone. Additionally, under Song Lan’s harsh mistreatment over these past few years, Jungkook’s body had grown more and more frail. Catching a cold just made things worse in a bad situation. He immediately came down with a severe illness. Jungkook remembered very clearly. Originally, he did not wake up as early as this. The incident occurred not long after. Gossip heard from outside mentioned that he was already seducing men at such a young age, without caring about his invaluable body. He fell into the water, after he took the initiative to seduce Chen Zhao and failed in his attempt. Thinking back, the act of pushing the blame on him must have been Song Lan’s doing. As a result of this false reputation, when Jungkook met the elders face to face in the future, the title of temptress befell him...
Now that he has woken up earlier, the gossip has not spread yet. After four years, he would be sent into the palace as a pawn. This was not something that he could endure. His purpose was not to be taken advantage of without reason and there was always a price to pay for everything a person did. Thus, he singled Chen Zhao out as the first target to meet his blade...
.
.
Early in the morning on the first day of the Chinese New Year, the sound of bamboo firecrackers could be heard from the stretch of streets outside the residence. One after another, children of the residence appeared to set off the firecrackers... The entire residence began to bustle. It was unknown if the act was intentional or if they had simply forgotten about Jungkook and his maids. After the New Year’s Eve dinner, it was unbelievable that no one bothered to visit their residence.
The residence of the trio barely managed a hint of warmth, as the sunlight shone through the windows. Considering that this residence was the most remote and ruined one in the courtyard, wind and rain often leaked through the roof throughout the year. Field mice often scampered about. The blankets that were originally sent by the manor were already very thin. Moreover, most of them had been gnawed by the mice to the extent of being unusable. Nam Seok sighed, unable to stop herself from turning her head to look at Jungkook, who was sitting on the bed with a blanket wrapped around him looking so fragile and innocent as he has a pout on his face...Jungkook leaned on a roughly-sewn brown pillow with a blanket covering his shoulders slightly , lost in thought. It had been four years since he had been sent to this residence. With the Song Lan family depriving him of basic clothing and food, he had reached maturity much later than the others. His hair was dry and showed a yellowing tint. At this moment, the sunlight filtered through the window, onto his long hair behind, giving them a hint of shifting glow. His lips appeared to have a healthier color than usual, making it attractive....his facial features to appear delicate and proper. As he sat silently, he was notably quieter than in the past, almost as if he had turned into a completely unfamiliar person...Nam Seok stood at a distance admiring Jungkook. Jungkook had changed so much, and as his personal maids, it was even more surprising to the both of them. Since sent into the residence four years ago, Jungkook often wept, as the Song Lan family knowingly made things difficult for him. Gradually, he did not have the will to cry any longer and merely accepted their treatment quietly. With sadness killing his heart, he became even more timid. But yesterday, his expression and manners seemed as if he was a whole new person...Regardless of the change, Jungkook was still their master. Perhaps, it was a blessing that Jungkook’s current attitude was completely different from the past. Just as Nam Seok was lost in thought, Shi Zhang walked in carrying a package wrapped in oil paper...
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Where did you get them from? Surely, the Song Lan family would not be this kind-hearted...
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
It seems that some important guests will soon be arriving at the residence. So for the past few days, everyone has been busy preparing for it. They have also prepared more snacks. I am on slightly friendly terms with Bai He, who is new in the kitchen, so I asked for some... ( smile)
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
I do not have any money to reward you. By following me to this residence, you have suffered greatly these past four years. Fortunately, with the start of this new year, we will not need to suffer anymore.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
( smiles and bows) This year, Master will absolutely have a good fortune for the entire year. Everything will go smoothly!
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
The weather outside is excellent, let’s go out for a walk.
Shi Zhang and Nam Seok looked at each other in pleasant surprise.Jungkook would be unwilling to take a walk outside on his own. Whenever the servants in the residence saw them, they always seemed to have a knack for ridiculing them....
As Jungkook had no proper clothing, his maids chose a normal attire for him. He wore a red long dress with a dark blue thin jacket on it that reached till his knees. Even if he kept a serious look still he looked innocent. Even in this simple attire it was enough to force people to look at him thrice. After dressing up properly, the trio walked out of the residence. Shi Zhang suggested a walk along the streets. Just as they emerged from the main residence, they bumped directly into a few people. A pleasantly surprised voice could be heard, “Younger Master Jeon!” Shi Zhang frowned her brow. Without a sound, Nam Seok protectively positioned Jungkook behind her. Jungkook raised his head, the other person’s shadow clearly reflected in both his eyes which turned even more cold with that reflection... It was the young son of Song Lan, Chen Zhao.
Today, Chen Zhao was just returning from outside, after flirting and goofing off, when he coincidentally met the few people leaving the residence. The boy in the middle had a delicate and graceful appearance, seeing this his eyes couldn’t help but brighten. It was only after he has looked closely, did he realize that he was Jungkook...As per his personality of a Leacher ( someone shameless) he puts his hands on any boy or girl he wants. A few days ago, he suddenly developed a curiosity to experience people from an official’s family. Who could have guessed that this boy had such an upright personality, going so far as to jump into the water without another word.
Chen Zhao was not fearful at all. He had heard about how jungkook had fallen ignored by his family from the capital and was well aware of his current status. Referring to Song Lan’s opinion, Jungkook might have to stay in this residence for the rest of his life. Thus, given the situation, it would be great if he could fool around with jungkook. Who knew, when he saw him today, his eyes would brighten? Perhaps, it was because New Year was around the corner that although he was dressed lightly, the clothes that complemented his Honey-skin made his face extremely adorable. The most important feature was his calm and quiet aura, as if he had become another person. Chen Zhao narrowed his gaze , carefully looking at the boy in front of his eyes from top to bottom. Jungkook was merely a young boy who had yet to reach his prime. His figure revealed a slight naivety, yet bordered a certain feeling of serious nature, strangely making him seem a bit mature. These contrasting auras surfacing in a single person were extremely mesmerizing to others. Although he was a young boy Chen Zhao could not help but to swallow his saliva. He had seen the horrible habits of a few officials’ sons at the brothel( place where people satisfy $exual desires with someone random) especially when they loved to fool around with younger-aged boys and girls. Yet, he had never experienced that kind of feeling before.
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
Just now as I watched a few people heading here from afar, I was wondering who the immensely attractive young boy was in the middle as he looked very unfamiliar.After walking closer, I only saw now that he is our master. I couldn’t control my sudden feelings- please forgive me just this once.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
What nonsense are you blathering about? Our master’s pure reputation is not something that you can ruin!”
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
Ruin our master’s pure reputation?( astonishing expression )... I have never thought about something like this. Our master is a child from a noble family. I wouldn’t dare to think about it..I just hope that master will not chase me away, and let me look at you from afar. With this, I will be satisfied.
In the past, Chen Zhao had harassed many girls and boys from decent families. As soon as he opened his mouth, he possessed a silver tongue. If anyone heard it, he/she would either be angered to the point of crying loudly on the spot, or turning completely red with embarrassment. Jungkook's reaction was a bit unusual today.Jungkook stared at him quietly. His clear eyes were very similar to a cold lake in the winter, without a hint of warmth. Although his gaze was cold, his lips curved slightly, as if watching a clown who wants attention . There was no anger but only , merely unbreakable coldness.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Of course, I will not chase you away... ( in a cold yet slow voice)
Initially, Chen Zhao was slightly suspicious. However, his thoughts soon transformed into secret delight. Eyeing the two maids gleefully, he thought inwardly that this boy was still someone who knew how to have fun. Looking at the present situation, so what if he was a noble family’s son?
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Recently, you accidentally pushed me into the lake. I suffered a cold and was bedridden. Auntie Lan sent a medical practitioner to see me, and personally apologized, with the request that I forgive you.
Chen Zhao’s heart sank when he heard it. After Jungkook fell into the lake, in order to prevent people from discovering the truth, he lied that he accidentally caused Jungkook to slip. These words that were spoken by Jungkook made Chen Zhao remember that because he wanted to avoid arousing suspicion, he rarely met him. Now that Jungkook mentioned it, was the incident unintentional or on purpose... Chen Zhao smiled awkwardly..Chen Zhao seriously stared at Jungkook. Under his observation, the boy simply stood on his spot. The old-fashioned, drab clothing on him did not make him look bad. Instead, it highlighted his pale, snowy skin, dark eyes and black eyebrows. Furthermore, the expression that moved between his eyebrows unexpectedly had an breathtaking charm. Staring at him, Chen Zhao’s gaze turned into admiration . Since he discovered how interesting this boy from the Jeon family was, naturally, he would not let him go. Chen Zhao smiled and left without taking his eyes off Jungkook
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Master, why did you phrase it that way? He is trouble....
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
I am really itching to poke both of his eyeballs out! Disgusting!
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
They will be poked out.. ( calmly)He wants to silently watch me from afar, then let him look to his heart’s content. Then let his eyes pay for the visual they enjoyed with their audacity..
Jungkook did not notice that the two maids by his side were lost in their alternating thoughts by seeing the change in him. He just quietly walked forward. However, if someone observed him attentively, they would see slight trembling of his fingertips. Just because he was born again didn't meant that he could call a war with all those who betrayed him. He had to take steps very carefully and with calculations. But the fear, unease, nervosity and perturbation would never leave hid soul, that's what came back with him in this life.
. . . . . .
Usually, Chen Zhao loved to sleep beneath the pear blossom trees. Today was not an exception. Caught off guard by a gentle voice, he was no different than a cat getting a whiff of fish. He immediately followed the source of the sound. Unexpectedly, he got his fish...Jungkook was dressed similarly to the previous day. The difference was that he had not tied his hair. He parted some of frontal hair. The rest of his nick long black hair rested casually on his neck. It made him look more mature, with a touch of gorgeousness. He in a simple look was failing the top beauties of the city.Jungkook's skin was paler than the white snow, and his facial features, even brighter than the pear blossoms. Hooked, Chen Zhao felt an unstoppable desire in his heart. Then he saw Jungkook raised his head slightly to admire the ice crystals which hung from the branches which exposed his neck. Chen Zhao swallowed his saliva as he casted his eyes on Jungkook from afar.He thought If he was able to claim an extraordinarily attractive boy of this class, having his way with him every night, it would truly be a wonderful matter in the world. He stood on his spot with a pair of restless eyes, deep in his lustfull desired thoughts.
Three days of peacefulness passed.
Jungkook would walk casually around the residence every day. He would bump into Chen Zhao sometimes, but against his expectations, he was more well-behaved than in the past. However, there was a worrying matter. The day that they had to hand over the handmade lantern was arriving soon, but Jungkook had not started making even one of them.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Master, Soon, we will have to hand the lanterns in. How can you be so relaxed?
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
You do not need to worry (flipped a page)
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
If we do not give them the lanterns, those people will find a reason to restrict your allowance. How can i not worry?
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Before the day comes when they distribute the allowance to us, we shall be back in the manor..
Shi Zheng furrowed her brows, wanting to speak further. But suddenly Nam Seok pushed the door open and walked in..
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Master, Miss Fang is here.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
What’s the matter?
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
Master, a few days ago, a pot of Queen of the Night ( name of a white flower) was delivered from outside. Since then, i have been properly taking care of it. Lately, the petals have become bigger and bigger. And, from the look of it, it will bloom tonight. If you are interested, why not come and have a look?It isn’t. Usually Queen of the Night only blooms in the summer and autumn, but this pot came into flower prematurely. It is a rare sight. Master, why not check it out yourself?
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
It’s so deep in the night and it’s bitterly cold outside. How can we let our master to walk around? What if he can’t bear the cold? The current state of his health cannot stand any suffering..
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Why don’t we bring the plant inside the house? Our master can admire it here.
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
As the name Queen of the Night implies, the beauty under the moon is only interesting and rewarding to admire when under the moon. If it is viewed in the house, then it would be no different than a common flower so what is the point? (eye brow frowned )Oh, right. You should also visit the pear blossom garden around midnight. The Queen of the Night is placed at the entrance. When it’s time, I will also make my way there.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
If this is the case, then I will go and have a look tonight. ( smile )
After Chen Fang’s departure, Nam Seok looked at Jungkook worriedly and said..
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
If you insist on going to the pear blossom garden, there is some advice I must give.Chen Fang is a person who speaks sharply and unkindly. That she expresses goodwill towards you is really out of her character. You should be careful because she might have other intentions.
Jungkook faintly smiled and opened his book again. Nam Seok and Shi Zhang got busy again. Through the pages of the book jungkook peeped and looked at his both trusted maids. In his past life, when he was about to enter the palace, Shi Zhang was killed with a paddle for speaking out of place towards Master Jeon. The truth was that Shi Zhang was unwilling to let his master replace Jeon Sui as a concubine. so she pleaded with Jungkook's father. However, he did not know why this provoked him into a rage that resulted in her violent death. Nam Seok did accompany him safely into the palace. When the emperor was forced to leave the throne, Jungkook let Nam Seok carry Seo Gguk and escape. As Seo Gguk was caught in the end, Nam Seok must have met a disastrous end... These two maids accompanied him brief, yet tragic past life to their utmost duty, and yet, he did not manage to protect even one of them... this thought stabbed his heart numerous times.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Although you are aware that she does not bear good intentions, you are still going?
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
I definitely have to attend this appointment. It’s just that I am not going to admire flowers, but to reclaim a debt. Shi Zhang, there is a matter I need you to handle for me
At the same time, Chen Fang left Jungkook's residence and excitedly walked out of the courtyard. Watching her emerge, a person standing outside rushed forward to ask..
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
How did it go? Did he agree to it?
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
Of course, he did. Now, Brother, where is the item you promised me?
Chen Zhao grinned happily and fished a sparkling and translucent jade bangle out. Chen Fang accepted the bangle from Chen Zhao’s hands and put it on impatiently.
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
You really like him? What is so good about that beggar? Master does not even like him. He has no future.
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
Hey, I am not going to marry him. With such a beautiful concubine in my home, I don’t need to pay and adjust with the $£x slaves in the brothel in the future. Isn’t this cost-effective? Even if i have tasted lots of boys, I have not experienced the feeling of being with an official’s son. Although he is an unfortunate person, he still has soft skin and tender flesh.
.
.
Taking advantage of the bright afternoon sun, Shi Zhang brought the blankets out from their residence to air out in the courtyard. Someone else was also drying blankets while keeping an eye on Shi Zhang. Chun Ling, a very cunning opportunist who was the personal maid of Song Lan, had always been in search of chances where she could have a big hand and use it for her own benefit. Even if she was a maid, her life style, hopes and dreams were those of a noble. Residing here in this country side was what had always irritated her. And that's why she always kept an eye on Jungkook and his fellas to never let go of any chance because she was well aware that Jungkook was from the capital. Although unfavored, left and abandoned, still he was from capital and was a noble's son, so how could she miss it? She too, commanded a few lower-ranked maids to hang the cotton blanket from Song Lan’s room on the clotheslines.
Shi Zhang was almost leaving when one maid ran towards her...The two of them walked to the side and huddled together where no one could figure out what they were speaking about. Chun Ling became even more alert and paid attention to it. After a while, Shi Zhang picked up an empty wooden tub and left. After her departure, Chun Ling summoned the maid who was about to leave..
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
Why did Shi Zhang find you without a good reason? What were you discussing so secretly just now?If you cannot provide a clear explanation, you don’t need to stay in this residence any longer.
Maid - That.. ac..Actually, Senior just heard that my embroidery skills were decent and asked me to embroider a water lily on our young master's ripped jacket so that a tear is not visible.
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
But this is really odd. Usually, young master would not concern over a jacket. Why would he suddenly want a water lily embroidered on it?
Maid - I heard that they managed to obtain a pot of Queen of the Night from somewhere. Tonight, our young master wants to admire the flower in the pear blossom garden. Thus, he wanted to dress more adorable for the event..
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
Okay, there is nothing here that concerns you anymore. You can go and perform your duties.
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
( After the maid left, she wondered on her own ) The residence has acquired a pot of Queen of the Night? I did not hear anything about that... and also why is that abandoned sick idiot concerned about flowers suddenyl? Also how did he know about it when he hardly comes out of the room? something is wrong. I must know. ( her eyes crinkled with excitement, mischief and greed )
In a room, by the side of the courtyard, Nam Seok took out several books from a chest to air out under the sun. The chest that had been full of books was completely emptied out in the courtyard...Looking at the books in the courtyard, Jungkook stood beside and spoke softly...
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Mother was born into a military family, and yet she collected this valuable literature just to gain someone’s favor. However, I was the one who benefitted from them. ( his face had no expression, but his voice held that regret and distant feeling )
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Master, were you reminiscing about your mother?
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
If she were still alive and could witness how intelligent and sharp you are now, she would feel very proud of you..
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Master, why are you reading those military books always?
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Even if we are not at war, our enemies may still approach us..
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
(Jungkook's gaze stopped on the few words on the book of military strategies: ‘luring a snake from its nest’... as he smiles faintly..)

A bait casted successfully

Winter passed quietly. The developing places were bustling with activities, while the quieter places become more dormant. As no one had visited Jungkook’s residence for a long time, the trio experienced a period of idle silence that was usually hard to come by. In the refreshing early morning air, Shi Zhang and Nam seok sat at the entrance of their residence mending clothes. Their clothes were as old as they could be, needing continuous mending. Although both of their embroidery skills were extraordinary, and these clothes could be worn again after being patched with flowery patterns, brightly-colored threads were extremely valuable to them. On normal days, they did not need such highlighting patchwork.
A boy sat quietly at the window, attentively reading the pages in front of him. The sunlight shone on the side of his pale beautiful face. His long, winged eyebrows frowned lightly. He had a kind of gentleness that moved people’s hearts. Shi Zhang unintentionally turned her head around and was amazed by the vision of her master. She felt that her master possessed an spellbound charm that was rare in the world. When he was quiet, he was immensely refined and serene, almost as if he were a piece of peaceful scenery painting. However, when he became ruthless, his harsh and pokingly mocking aura was a kind of charisma..
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Our master has grown quite a bit this year and has become much taller. He is no more that innocent small boy of 14 who was scared and meek...
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
In the future, it might be harder to fit him into his clothes. Spring will be coming soon. We should find some time to make some new clothes for him to wear.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
It is easy for you to say
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
At this time of the year, the allowance distributed by those people has been halved. Two sets of new clothing require a lot of materials. Where can we find those?
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
I think that we need to hike the mountains to gather a few medicinal plants to trade for some money so that we can buy some material to make clothes for our master.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Our master is so beautiful, yet the clothes that he wears are so shabby. At such an age, other people are dressed up as good as they can , but our master is not as fortunate.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
He does not even have a set of brightly-colored clothes. It is such a waste of his good looks. If our master wore those good looking clothes, he would definitely defeat all the handsome men infact beautiful ladies in the entire capital.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Talking about this is futile. You are speaking about the capital right now, but I don’t even know when can we return to the manor.
While they were chattering away, someone knocked on the door outside. It was a maid who came to deliver firewood.
Maid glanced at the clothes in Nam Seok’s hands and smiled
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
Senior's hands are so skilled. This needlework is done so finely that one can not tell that the clothes have been mended.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
(chuckled) It was merely sewn casually. Furthermore, who would notice this when worn in our everyday lives?
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
This year, my mother made me a new peach short coat. Unexpectedly, while I was working, I ripped a hole under the arm. If I possessed a skill like yours, I wouldn’t need to feel worried about it anymore.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
It will be fine. Just let Nam seok mend it for you.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Of course, I can. It is just that I don’t have any peach-colored thread here. You will have to give me a spool.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
But, maids like you that serve in the main residence are extremely lucky and privileged. How is it even possible that you own any torn clothes?
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
Who said that we were full of luck?
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
I would rather serve our young master who has such a good personality. Let me not keep both Seniors in the dark. It is very hard to perform duties for those few people who are outside this residence. It is not only Auntie Lan, but even her son is someone who is not easy to deal with. Lately, his behaviour has been excessively bad.
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
I heard that he went behind Auntie Lan’s back and sold off one of their lands. After Auntie Lan found out about it last night she flew into a terrible rage.
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
Yesterday it caused Auntie Lan to be very furious. I heard that she asked him where the money went, but she could not get an answer out of him, so she scaned through his entire room quite thoroughly. You should be able to guess what the result was- he didn’t even have a single cent left!
Xiao Yuan
Xiao Yuan
Auntie Lan is also acting very strangely. In the end, he had a big fight with Auntie Lan and walked off without another word or any consideration for her feelings.
Nam Seok put the clothes down and walked to Jungkook's side. Jungkook, who was reading, raised his head with a shadow of a smile...
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
He’s got quite the nerve to sell the land without consulting his mother.
Suddenly, they heard Shi Zhang's loud voice roaring from outside,
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
How dare you misbehave and rush inside?
Yet, another voice was burning with scorching anger, “Don’t block my way. Let me in!”
Nam Seok could not help feeling stunned as that voice sounded very familiar to her. It was definitely Chen Fang. But what was Chen Fang here for? Jungkook looked out of the window and smirked slightly
The door swung open with a bang. Chen Fang appeared in front of Jungkook anger and hatred clearly visible on her face. Jungkook did not even give Chen Fang a glance. His eyes continued to stay fixed on the pages in front of him. Chen Fang planned to stay cool so that Jungkook would be the one who would first direct a question at her. However, she did not expect that Jungkook would barely raise his head. Her heart thumped. This kind of attitude left her with no confidence.
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
Master, a few days ago, did you not go to admire the Queen of the Night?
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
No. i didnt. I suddenly felt unwell that night so I could not make the trip to the pear blossom garden to admire the flower. (he said making a dramatic expression of being ill )
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
Master, how could you do this?( grew angrier)
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
Clearly, you had accepted my invitation. If you were unable to attend, you should have at least sent someone to inform me.
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
No one told you?.. ( little surprised ) Shi Zhang, didn’t I tell you to notify Fang that night that I was unable to go? Don’t tell me that you forgot..
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
No matter what, I would not dare to forget your orders. That night, I went to the pear blossom garden. Even though I waited and waited, she did not come at all. I thought that Miss Fang already knew about it and thats why she did not come. so after midnight I returned here.
Chen Fang was so furious that her face could not help but shed its makeup foundation. She had thought about various possible scenarios in her mind but she had never predicted that Jungkook would treat her with such a lukewarm attitude...
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
But Fang, it has already been quite some time since the appointment between you and I, so how can you come only now to ask about that night’s happenings? Don’t tell me that you yourself did not go to the pear blossom garden, but you were confident that I did?
Chen Fang was at a loss for words. A hint of nervousness flashed across her face. Chen Fang’s words were all jumbled up. She realized that no matter how she tried to express herself, her words were full of loopholes.
Chen Fang
Chen Fang
No, no, it’s just that… It’s just that I only became aware today that you had never gone there. That night, I had something to attend to, so I did not keep the appointment…
Chen Fang bit her lips. Although her heart was extremely unwilling to let the matter go, she could not find a point that she could logically argue with. She could only blame herself for rushing here today when she had not planned her counter measure for dealing with Jungkook.
Chen Fang’s heart suddenly tightened in alarm and she eyed Jungkook uneasily. She met Jungkook's smiling gaze. However, looking at it carefully, she felt that those pair of clear eyes contained waves of murderous intention. The rising corner of her eyes had the icy harshness of the devil.
Chen Fang forced herself to smile while digging her own nails in her palm as she stormed out.
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
Look at her lack of discipline. She is out of control and does not act like a servant at all. I really need to teach her a proper lesson someday!
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
Why do we need to wait for another day?( closed his book) She will be taught a lesson soon enough.
Nam Seok
Nam Seok
Master.. ( slight smile ) dont tell me that, that night...
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
Since I didn’t go, naturally, there would be someone who would replace me. It seems like that Fang had not only invited a wolf, but also a wolf that loved money. ( he smirked at Nam seok as he held the book close )
Shi Zhang
Shi Zhang
That girl is extremely mad by nature. I only needed to act a bit in front of her, and she took our bait in such a hurry!
Jeon jungkook
Jeon jungkook
You have accomplished this task beautifully..( smiled at Shi Zhang)...Who knows how long will Chen Zhao be able to enjoy this?
The story branched into two different, yet interrelated, routes simultaneously. On the one hand, just when Chen Zhao and Chen Fang thought they would succeed, against all odds Jungkook and his maids managed to emerge untouched from this unfavorable situation. On the other hand, that night the main leads of this wonderful show were in the midst of their honeymoon period...
.
.
Few days passed without any ruckus or trouble...
At the moment, a tall healthy lady, dressed in purple clothing, was sitting in front of a copper mirror and carefully examining a pearl necklace on her neck. The necklace was made from South China pearls which were huge and round, and also of excellent quality. After a long time passed, Chun Ling removed the necklace from her neck. After all, she could never wear such an accessory out in public. She might be in trouble if someone suspected that she had obtained it wrongfully, because it was impossible for a maid of her rank to be able to own such a luxurious item. She walked to the side of her bed and brought a small box and unlocked it using a small copper key. Filled to the brim, it was a box full of pearls, jade and jewelry. Chun Ling placed the pearl necklace inside the box and gazed at its lustre. No matter how hard she might have worked as a servant, it was not possible for her to get such accessories. Chun Ling smiled. That idiot was unexpectedly agreeable to her wishes, sending the jewelry over without any objections.A few days ago, she had heard the news of Jungkook wanting to admire flowers with someone under the moon. That night, she visited the pear blossom garden herself, to investigate the matter. She did not see Jungkook there, but surprisingly instead, someone embraced her from behind as soon as she had arrived. Initially, she was extremely frightened when that person moved closer to her ear and whispered.....
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
Love, you should not scream. If anyone sees you with me, you are going to be only tied to me for the rest of your life. Even though I cherish you greatly, I have treated you poorly, I will take care of you well.
Chun Ling finally understood. The person was Chen Zhao, who had mistaken her for Jungkook cause she was same height and bit healthy as jungkook. However, before she could process what was happening, Chen Zhao had already started to tear her clothes off. He pulled her to a dark corner and started kissing her roughly. Soon he trailed his kiss towards her chin and neck. Chun Ling thought of opposing and punched Chen Zhao's chest with her fist.
But Chen Zhao held are hand above her had and started making dark reddish marks on her neck. Chun Ling was not enjoying it but not hating it also. Chen Zhao put her down on the ground and removed her upper coverings. He hovered and removed his own clothes. Soon, slow moans and grunting sounds could be heard. Body slapping with each other and sloppy kissing sounds were filling the atmosphere with that particular corner of the garden. The bush beside was shaking as Chun Ling held it for grip. She was filling a lot of pain but the person above was on cloud nine.
Chen Zhao was really harsh on the person below without knowing her identity. He thought it to be Jungkook and did his all thinking if he would get a chance again or not. Under the moon light, that day , Chen Zhao was really foolish to do all that he wanted to do with Jungkook to this mere maid. As the dawn neared Chen Zhao stopped and flopped beside a panting Chun Ling, filled with red marks and some of her clothes...At first, Chun Ling wanted to scream but as the sound began to escape her lips, she stopped herself.
After all, Chen Zhao was the son of the person who was in charge of managing the residence and even though it did not seem like an important position, she was extremely knowledgeable about the large amount of private property that Song Lan had gathered over the years. Chen Zhao’s life was in no way inferior to an ordinary wealthy family’s. Her high ranked maid life wasnt that satisfactory. But, if she had someone rich like Chen Zhao as a pawn, then----
Submitting to Chen Zhao sexually, she had a passionate encounter with him. Chun Ling did not mind that she lost her virginity. If she could sell her body for a good price, then there was no harm in it. Anyway, in the future she could only be someone’s concubine. Later, when Chen Zhao woke up and realized that the person by his side was Chun Ling, the color immediately drained from his face. Chun Ling threatened him that if he did not pay her for her silence, she would take him to court and let everyone know how Chen Zhao had humiliated her.
It had never crossed Chen Zhao’s mind that Chun Ling was not just a beauty, but also a cunning snake. Not only that, she was extremely sly and shameless. He had no choice but to fullfill Chun Ling's demands.
Coughing up money again and again, Chen Zhao had become embarrassingly short of money, however, Chun Ling still cornered him relentlessly. For this reason Chen Zhao silently sold off the first piece of land.
Today, Chen Zhao felt that Chun Ling was being too greedy. Their arguments became more and more serious, and eventually, one could no longer see the devilish beauty under the moon that night. Chun Ling had just closed the box when she heard the door open. Chen Zhao impatiently went into the room. She stood up immediately and frowned. Just within a few days of meeting him, his expression had become haggard and his eyes bloodshot.
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
Despite being a cheap slave, you can afford to drink this high grade silver needle tea. As expected, you do not need to think twice before you spend the money that I gave you!
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
Yes, I am a cheap slave. But who do you regard yourself as? Don’t tell me that you really think of yourself as the son of a wealthy family? Or did you think that as long as you have Young master Jungkook, you would be able to claim connections to the minister?
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
You-( anger flashed ) You shouldn’t go overboard in taking unfair advantage of me.
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
It was you who took advantage of me. But why did you come here today?
Chen Zhao
Chen Zhao
I came here today to inform you that I dont have more money. Let’s settle this once and say that it was something that we were both willing to do.
Chun Ling
Chun Ling
We were both willing? You want to claim that we were both willing, but when we are at court, do you really think that the magistrate will believe you?
Chen Zhao lost his temper. He gave a bloodshot red eyed look to Chun Ling. He wished to rush and kill this wh0re infront of him, but he was helpless. He can't just attempt a murder in the day light. That too the head maid of his mother. But he had no other way too. This lady was too greedy. He had already sold property papers. Now he had nothing to give or sale. But the greed and demand of this lady was never ending. Chen Zhao wanted to end this for final. And if it can't be mutual, it has to be one sided.
.
.
At midnight, the moon was curved like a hook. The cold wind rustled through the wild, overgrown branches in the backyard. In the courtyard, a maid who was carrying a laundry basket suddenly stopped. Hearing the sound of an object falling into the water from the veranda, she turned her head in alarm. Feeling an eeriness from the courtyard, she quickly left.
Outside the pear blossom garden, Shi Zhang was holding a large paper bag in her hands and speaking to Jungkook rather happily. Jungkook looked at the sky. Dark clouds covering almost half of the moon. The light outside was slightly hazy. He suddenly spoke with a strange calmness.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
A murder taking place during a moonless night as the wind howls.. ( chuckled )..indeed a beautiful scene...
These words were spoken in such an odd manner that Shi Zhang could not make head or tail of them. Suddenly out of the darkness, a person hurried towards them. She was able to clearly recognize the person only when they came near. It was Chen Zhao. Chen Zhao also noticed the duoa and stopped his steps immediately.
Jungkook's gaze travelled across Chen Zhao’s tense expression and slid to his exposed neck. The streaks of bright red scars on his neck were particularly eye-catching. Chen Zhao seemed completely unaware about the scars himself. Jungkook’s lips curved into a mocking arrogant smile at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao gritted his teeth. His gaze was suddenly filled with hatred as he recalled how he had attracted a person as troublesome as Chun Ying because of Jungkook. If it were not for him, he would not have needed to kill someone. But now, he had killed but yet, Jungkook was still perfectly innocent.
Jungkook slightly smirked like mocking Chen Zhao and asked Shi Zhang to lead the way. He left a shocked and sweating Chen Zhao there. Chen Zhao glanced at Jungkook's back with his all anger, hatred and fear as the widened eyes of the person who died flashed infront of him...
