Chapter 284 - Baronette And Her Lord

"Are you really coming with me?" She asked in a languid tone.

Baronette went out of the car. They stop in a remote place in the suburb of C City. As soon as she came down, Su Ming followed her as well.

" Why is it? Why don't you like to bring me along with you?"

Baronette raised her eyebrows, along the way Su Ming didn't stop pestering her questioning of this and that, and if where is Su Ci Yi's whereabouts. How could she know such a trivial thing? And if she knew, there's no way that she is interested.

In the end, Baronette shut up her mouth. Deciding that this is the last route that she will get along with her. This woman was already using a lot of her time.

With a flicked of her hand, Baronette force her into a deep slumber and chunk her body inside the car.

"Return her to her home. I don't want her to pester me for a moment."

The driver nodded upon her demand and drive off, leaving Baronette standing on the sole land. This place is known for its concurrent raised in crime rates. A dangerous place that is full of garbages and tall grasses. No wonder no one wanted to build a building in this area.

However, this is good for her. If there is no one nearby, no one will get suspicious of her.

She's already been late to her appointment. Her lord had already awakened a week ago, and he was already waiting for her. Baronette had a hard time finding an entrance and when she found one, a week had passed.

"Open up!"

Baronette whispered through the gap on the ground. Upon her request, the soil trembled and split into two creating a passage for her to trail down.

Without further ado, she swayed her h.i.p.s and stepped into the deep darkness below.

"You are late. I have been bored these days."

The man coldly greeted as soon as Baronette arrive. His face didn't have any trace of sentiments nor longing to the person who had just arrive but rather an impatience and gloomy mood.

The place was still the same. Dark, cold, and like a graveyard piled with bones.

These bones were the enemies of her lord that tried to assassinate and plot against him. As a token of their appreciation for reducing the boredom he had suffered when he was banished, he froze the remains of those people and display their bones for his own enjoyment.

Baronette was wearing a red gown with a slit in her left leg. Her face was countered with makeup and her lips were quite vibrant. It's too obvious that she had made a lot of effort to present her presence to this man.

"Pardon for my rudeness, this subordinate had a hard time searching for the entrance in this place. When I stumbled to one, it was already a week later."

Baronette was kneeling while speaking of those. And her overall countenance exuded a humble and lowly servant of the man.

"Ai, your too stiff. Get up. And what's with the dress? Did you already been swallowed by the tradition of this world..."

The man irked with a bit of irritation but then he suddenly thought of something.

" Get undress now. I want to see it."

Baronette who stood on the sideline froze and look with doubt to her lord.

"Ai, your too slow, do I need to force it from you?"

"What are you staring at? I only wanted that dress." Seeing her not making a move, he was even irritated to the point where he needed to crush a wall of ice that had been frozen for a thousand years.

But at some point when a figure suddenly appeared in his head, he smiled unconsciously.

Baronette didn't delay and undress. What left to her was her inner robe in the inside. She handed the dress to the man and get back to her kneeling position.

The man gazed with passion unto the dress. His eyes are glued to it as if any moment he would swallow the thing in his hand.

Now his mood has improved thinking about it.

"There really is a lot of interesting things up above, huh? And I wonder if that little thing will like this presence of mine."

"Milord?"

Baronette spoke. She wasn't sure what his lord was talking about.

"Don't mind me. I was not talking to you."

Who was it? 

Who was it that his lord is thinking right now?

It'd better not be the one that she thought. But there's no way... She was in a different body now and there's no way that he will recognize her. She had already made sure of this a long time ago.

" What are you thinking?"

The man soon broke into his deep tone that almost penetrated Baronette's soul. It was the same as long ago. As soon as he asked that question, her lord had already a hint of what she is up to. Baronette shivered, is her expression betraying her? Will he ask for what she had done?

"When I see you like that, I always think that you are scheming something. However, let me remind you that no matter what it is, be sure that I won't discover it in the future. I like insidious people but I won't tolerate someone without loyalty. I have been betrayed once and I will not let it happen a second time around."

Baronette stopped shivering but still kneel on the ground.

"Stand up. Ai, you are so boring. I wonder if I can go out for the next days to come. My nerves were already stiff these past days."

The man turned his back from him and hummed in a tune of a children's lullaby which Su Ci Yi sang. But his version was much more pleasant to hear than the two-line song of that woman.

On his hand was a long red gown. Looking over it, should he let her dress this and sang him a song again?
