Translator: Misty Cloud Translations  Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Sima You Yue said as she saw the disgust in her eyes, “What a pity, this hand won’t be able to be shown to others in the future even when she is such a nice lady.”

“Li loves perfection.” Xuan Qiu He continued, “She shall not follow you anymore since her hand is not in a good condition.”

Sima You Yue glanced at Xuan Qiu He, was what he said a coincidence?

“But, how can I….” Eastern Lai Li bit her lips looking regretful.

“You don’t want her anymore? Young Miss Eastern Lai, give her to me if you don’t want her anymore.” Sima You Yue said.

“Give her to you?” Eastern Lai Li looked at Sima You Yue, what did she mean by that?

“That’s right, I think it will sound cool to have a servant from hidden families.” Sima You Yue smiled brightly as if she found a treasure.

“No, An Lei is our servant’s child, her parents entrusted her to Eastern Lai Clan before their deaths, we can’t treat her like that.” Eastern Lai Li rejected.

“Oh I see, no wonder you guys bear to spend seventy thousand top grade crystals to save her life.” Sima You Yue continued, “Does this mean that you guys are willing to treat her hands? Although it’s a bit expensive, the good thing is that it can be treated.”

“Li, I know you’re doing this for her own good so that she can stay in the clan, but she doesn’t suit now. Xuan Qiu He continued, “If your clan still remembers the gratitude of her parents from the past, you should let her choose the path of her life.”

Sima You Yue didn’t care what happened in the past, but she was curious about how Xuan Qiu He knew about it.

Did something big happen in that very year?

“Hmph, she is just a low life servant, what rights does she have to choose her own path?” Shui’er sneered.

At this moment, Eastern Lai’s in-charge went to Eastern Lai Li and said something that made Eastern Lai Li look at An Lei strangely.

Sima You Yue knew that in-charge did something so that she couldn’t hear what they were talking about.

Eastern Lai Clan’s in-charge was Lai He, someone who looked young and cold. It was reported that he had high status in Eastern Lai Clan but he kept a very low profile as he was a man of very few words. Eastern Lai Li was the one who planned everything and he rarely spoke.

It was unsure of what he said to Eastern Lai Li at this point of time.

“I don’t care if you guys are discussing where she is going. But can you firstly pay for the two pills earlier?” She spoke.

She was blunt, the gaze she gave Eastern Lai Li looked as if she was afraid that they wouldn’t pay up.

Eastern Lai He backed away to a side after he spoke, he didn’t care about the matters on her side.

“Isn’t it just crystals? Would Eastern Lai Clan die without it?” Eastern Lai Li laughed, “But I’ve to settle something first before that.”

“Hurry up.” Sima You Yue said unhappily.

Eastern Lai Li went up to An Lei as she used the bandage that was dropped on the floor and started to wrap it carelessly around her hand.

“An Lei.” Eastern Lai Li’s back was facing everyone, she looked at An Lei coldly and heartlessly.

“Young Miss.” An Lei suppressed the fear in her heart so that she wouldn’t look scared.

“Fourth Uncle told me earlier that they promised your parents that they won’t stop you if you want to leave Eastern Lai clan one day. Since it happened today, let me ask you, do you want to leave?”

An Lei and the others were flabbergasted, along with Sima You Yue.

Sima You Yue was thinking of a way to make Eastern Lai Li give up on An Lei, but the opportunity was right in front of her.

Eastern Lai Li looked at An Lei, who was in a daze, in disgust as the bandage on her hand fell off with the skeleton of the fingers exposed.

An Lei’s shock was broken by that gaze and came back to senses. She bent down and said, “Young Master He is right, a servant like me shouldn’t be around Young Miss. Servant wants to leave.”

“You made your decision?” Eastern Lai Li wasn’t surprised when she heard her answer.

Since she chose to betray, then she should bear with the consequences tomorrow.

No one could betray her!

“Yes.” An Lei nodded affirmatively.

“Since you’ve made your decision, from today onwards, you’ll not be Eastern Lai’s members. Today, I’ll remove the mark of Eastern Lai from you, Eastern Lai will not help you if anything happens to you from today onwards. And you are not allowed to use Eastern Lai Clan’s name and reputation when you’re outside. Do you understand?”

“Servant understands.”

A ray of light flew out from her body when Eastern Lai Li placed her hand on An Lei’s forehead. At this point, the aura on her was different from Shui’er and the rest.

No one knew if An Lei sat on the ground because her body couldn’t take the impact or because she was too relieved.

Eastern Lai Li said as she didn’t take another glance at her, “The master and servant relationship of ours will end here. You’re on your own from now on.”

She turned and left after she spoke, she went up to Sima You Yue and said, “Young Miss You Yue, as of now, An Lei is not a member of Eastern Lai Clan, how do we settle the payment?”

Sima You Yue knew at a glance that she didn’t intend to pay, but the expression on her face was full of unsaid threats. As a girl from a small town, she had to follow what the Young Miss said.

“Since An Lei is not your servant anymore, then….. you won’t have to pay for it!” She said the latter with gritted teeth.

“Young Lady You Yue is indeed sensible.” Eastern Lai Li laughed.

“But I can’t forgo the other seventy thousand top grade crystals. I’ll ask her for it!” Sima You Yue ran to An Lei and said as she extended her hand, “Money!”

“What money?” An Lei then came back to senses and looked at Sima You Yue curiously.

“For the two pills. You’re not a member of Eastern Lai Clan anymore, so Young Miss Eastern Lai is not obligated to pay for you. So, pay up.”

“I, I don’t have money.” An Lei lowered her head.

“No money? Aren’t servants like you from big clans rich?” Sima You Yue continued, “Don’t prank me just because I came from a small town.”

“It’s true that I don’t have money.” An Lei lowered her head even more.

Other servants might have had money, but hers was snatched away long ago.

“Then it’s hard.” Sima You Yue rubbed her chin, “I wouldn’t have saved you if I knew this would happen, you make me use up so many of the rare medicinal ingredients. Sigh, looks like the joke I made earlier on will come true, you’ll become my servant.”

“How can that be possible?!” An Lei cried out.

Sima You Yue was back facing everyone, they could only see An Lei’s expression so she cried out in correspondence.

“Impossible? Then pay up. If not, you’ll have to address me as Young Miss.”
