Arc 3 Chapter 137: Scheming Lord, Cooperate a Bit (24)
Since she wanted to play the hero she might as well indulge her in her little dream. After all it was just a child worth a few taels of silver.
Once she tasted bitterness in the future and wanted to regret it wouldn't be up to her anymore.
"Give it to me!" Luo Liyan held out her hand.
"What?" The madam was bewildered by her sudden request.
"What else? The little brat's indenture contract. Since you've agreed to spare my little brother do you really want to keep his indenture contract?" Luo Liyan blinked her eyes playfully.
"Fine, here you go." The madam sighed and waved to a servant nearby.
The servant hurried away and soon returned with a small box. After a brief search, she retrieved a thin piece of paper and handed it to Luo Liyan.
After carefully inspecting it and confirming its authenticity Luo Liyan happily stashed the indenture contract in her bosom.
"You should have done this earlier. You've wasted so much of our time. Now, go find a room for me to rest. This night has been so exhausting." Luo Liyan yawned and walked out of the prison room leaving everyone with incredulous looks.
Weichi Che, oh Weichi Che! Now even your indenture contract is in my hands. Let's see how you'll challenge me in the future.

"No sister no!"
A terrified whisper echoed in the luxurious and elegant study. The tall man's body slumped knocking over an inkstone causing ink to splatter across the table.
"General!" The guard standing nearby rushed forward to clean up the mess, but the man stopped him with a gesture.
How long had it been since he last dreamt of his sister?
It seemed like ever since he had avenged her by burying all the people from that brothel his sister hadn't appeared in his dreams again.
He had thought that avenging her would allow her to rest in peace.
But why was she suddenly appearing in his dreams again? Did she have unresolved matters? Had something happened to her family?
The expression on the man's face which had been somewhat troubled turned dark and fierce.
Why in these twelve years had his sister never visited his dreams even during the most perilous times and yet now she was sending him dreams for those family members who had never bothered to find her?
Did she think they were more important than him?
The man clenched his fists tightly on the table, exuding an aura of overwhelming aggression that was even stronger than in battle. The guard's hair stood on end, but he kept himself together not wanting the general to vent his anger on him.
"General."
A soft call came from outside the door and the man's deep eyes narrowed.
It seemed there was some news.
Well it was a bit unfortunate for the so-called."Jingcheng's Number One Beauty." who always managed to cross his path when he was in a bad mood. It was the perfect time to relieve some tension by shedding some blood. She would be a good candidate.
"Speak." the man said raising his head again, his face returning to its usual sinister and cold demeanor.
"Princess Fuhuan didn't return to the Marquis of An Yong's residence through the front gate. Instead she climbed over the wall in the backyard. She went straight to the bedroom and didn't come out until this morning. Now she's in the courtyard doing embroidery. So, she probably sneaked out to find you on her own rather than at the behest of the Marquis of An Yong."
