Su Nuo did not know what to say. She wanted to say something, but then she said, "Ning'er, don't be afraid, big sister will always be here." As she said that, she slowly patted the table as if she was coaxing a baby.
Su Nuo wanted to laugh. She knew this person couldn't be abnormal, so why would he do this to her? Unfortunately, Su Nuo was Su Nuo, and she couldn't laugh, especially under such circumstances.
Su Nuo just closed her eyes and answered half-obediently.
She was her master's most beloved person. If she was unhappy, then her master would definitely be unhappy as well. Therefore, for her master's sake, she had to pretend to smile at this person.
As for the strange feeling in her heart, Su Nuo didn't want to investigate.
In the morning, Su Nuo woke up. The discomfort on her body had truly recovered without any discomfort.
The moment she opened her eyes, Bai Qian's beautiful face was directly stabbed into Su Nuo's eyes.
Su Nuo took a closer look. In fact, Whitesnow's face was very similar to hers. If it was, Whitesnow would have closed its eyes like this!
Su Nuo knew the biggest difference was the eyes she had with the two of them. Before they left the Su palace, she obviously didn't know that this profound knowledge was carved into her master's heart bit by bit.
Su Nuo knew that. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so stupid as to blind herself at that time.
Su Nuo smiled, her mouth full of bitterness.
It was precisely because of these eyes that she was fair and shallow, noble and gentle, doted upon by everyone. It was also because of her eyes that she could only be Su Nuo, the decadent and gray Su Nuo, and the sunless Su Nuo.
Su Nuo sighed deeply and carefully propped herself up, preparing to get up.
"She actually sighed at such a young age." Suddenly, a light voice rang out.
Su Nuo was shocked. When she turned around, she saw that Bai Qian had already opened her eyes and was looking at her with a gaze filled with light. That's right, that pair of eyes was different from her own.
Bai Qian also stood up and pulled Su Nuo over, sighing. "Why does my family's Na'er seem like a little adult? She sighed early in the morning and was both silly and foolish."
Su Nuo wanted to laugh. Why was every word this person said to her so strange? She had already grown up, but she still couldn't laugh out loud.
Regardless of whether it was the gentle and loving look of the person in front of her, or the coaxing tone of the child, either of these were things she did not want to accept.
Suddenly, the smile on Whitesnow's face vanished. He looked at Su Nuo and said seriously, "Xiao'er, I said you are his female slave. Is this true?"
Su Nuo froze. So it was that quick, this person had already started calling him 'Master'. Su Nuo was bitter. In the past, this was what she had called him.
However, Su Nuo only responded with a light sound.
With a pained look on his face, his right hand caressed Su Nuo's face. "Is it hard work?"
This was because the status of a female slave was always known to be lowly. It was something that everyone could bully.
Su Nuo froze. Being so close to him, how could she not see the pain in her face? However, Su Nuo shook her head, "It's not hard on you. Master treats me very well."
Bai Qian was silent for a moment. "Xiao'er, if you don't like it, your sister will tell Han and he will agree."
Su Nuo's eyes suddenly widened. She went to tell her master that Su Nuo did not doubt her master at all. If this person told her master to return her freedom, her master would definitely not hesitate to let her leave, not to mention if she threw her master away earlier.
"No need." Su Nuo quickly refused.
Astonishment flashed across her fair eyes. That was true. Who in this world would be willing to be a lowly female slave? There was no one left.
But if it was Su Nuo, it must have been an accident.
A sad accident.
Su Nuo hesitated. "Because Master is a good person." After a pause, she added, "Besides, Master is my benefactor, so I want to repay Master."
Bai Qian looked at Su Nuo and said, "I also heard about this from Han. Since my Xiao'er wants to be someone who knows how to repay favors, I won't stop you. However, you must tell me about it that day, okay?"
Su Nuo looked at Whitesnow's conniving expression and was once again shocked. She then nodded her head.
"Qian'Er, are you up yet?" Suddenly, Bei Chen Han's voice came from outside.
Su Nuo froze. So Master was also here, but that's right. It wasn't easy to reunite with her sister. How could Master be willing to leave her!
"Yes, I'm already up." Bai Qian said to Beichen who was outside, then turned to Su Nuo, "Alright, it's time to wake up." Then, as if playing with a doll, he began to play with Su Nuo.
Su Nuo was stupefied. She opened her mouth wide as she watched Bai Qian helping her dress and comb her hair. Her face was still smiling gently.
"Our Na'er is really good-looking." Whitesnow looked at Su Nuo, who was dressed up, and smiled in satisfaction. Then, she went to open the door.
Su Nuo still hadn't recovered from the situation. This matter should have been done by the servant girl or the slave girl, so how could —
"Na'er, you really like being in a daze." As she spoke, Bai Qian led Su Nuo out, just in time to face Bei Chenghan who was standing outside.
Su Nuo saw Bei Chen Han's face and all the messy thoughts disappeared from her mind. She only knew that even if she were to see her master once, it would be extremely precious. But even though they were so close, Bei Chen Han treated Su Nuo like air.
"I didn't expect Qian'Er to wake up so early." Bei Chen said as he looked at Bai Qian lovingly.
Bai Qian felt a little awkward under Bei Chen Han's straightforward gaze, but she did not feel embarrassed at all. She only smiled and nodded, and then brought Su Nuo up in front of Bei Chen Han, as if she was offering a treasure, and said, "Is our family's Xiao'er very beautiful?" She was truly with her beloved sister, showing her sister off to everyone.
Su Nuo did not expect Bai Qian to do this. Her originally aching heart was pulled, and she became completely nervous.
Bei Chen Han looked at Su Nuo and said, "She is Qian'Er's little sister, so she is naturally good-looking." With that sentence, Su Nuo lowered her head, and all the nervousness disappeared.
Bai Qian was dissatisfied, and glared at Bei Chen Han. "What are you saying? What does the good looks have to do with my younger sister? That's because the good looks have to do with the good ones."
When Su Nuo heard this, she suddenly raised her head to look at Bai Qian with eyes filled with shock.
Why did this person want to talk to his master in such a manner? No one in this world would talk to their master in such a manner just for the sake of a female slave like her. Yet, this person …
Bei Chen froze, and then gently said: "Qian'Er is angry, but I don't have any other intentions. Since she is a sister with Qian'Er, then elder sister should look good, and little sister should also look good."
The shock in his heart froze, but his master was not angry at all, and still explained in such a good-natured manner. Sure enough, to his beloved sister, he could do anything.
His heart, was it pain or not, Su Nuo could no longer feel it!
Was he numb?
Bai Qian's eyes were still sullen as she said, "My sister is called Nore, not her."
Bei Chen Han still dotingly said: "Yes, I will call you Xiao'er from now on." Then he looked at Su Nuo and called out, "Nore."
Su Nuo smiled. Su Nuo lowered her head and softly replied, "Yes, master." When she said the last two words, Su Nuo felt Whitesnow pulling on her. She tightened her grip.
She thought, this person is still very strange, could it be that he really likes to be her sister? Su Nuo forced herself to think.
Because Su Nuo knew that if only her head was occupied by other thoughts, there would be no more space for her to think about anything related to her master, so she wouldn't have to be lost in the numbing pain.
Bai Qian pulled Su Nuo along. "Let's go eat. Nore, you have to eat properly. Only then will you be in good shape."
Su Nuo nodded and followed Bai Qian obediently. She did not see Bei Chen Han looking at her with a sharp gaze from behind, but even if Su Nuo did not see, or rather Su Nuo did not turn around to look at her with that knife-like eyes, she knew that she would still be unhappy with Bai Qian focusing all her attention on her.
At the dining table.
"Xiao Er, you need to eat more meat. You don't have any meat on you." Bai Qian stuffed a large piece of meat into a rice bowl that was already filled with dishes.
Su Nuo just lowered her head and meekly answered, then silently ate the food in the bowl.
Bei Chenghan placed a piece of fish into a shallow bowl and said lovingly, "Ah, you old naughty girl, you don't eat anything."
Bai Qian's anger towards Bei Chenghan had improved quite a bit. She smiled at him and said, "I will eat."
No matter how you looked at it, a person like Bai Qian was a gentle person. If he really got angry, it would still be shocking.
Or rather, it was her principle, which was the same whenever it came to her principle, no matter who it was.
Suño lowered her head and thought, how could she be so unprincipled? No, it should be said that the only principle in her life was to love her master deeply!
Su Nuo gently smiled. She seemed to have already begun to see clearly just how sorrowful of an existence she was!
"Qian'Er, the weather is good today. Is there anywhere you want to go?" Bei Chen Han asked gently.
Bai Qian looked at Su Nuo, "Hm, that's good too. I'm sure Nuo hasn't gone out to have a good look yet."
When Bei Chen Han heard Bai Qian's words, his cold gaze had already landed on Su Nuo's face. Su Nuo seemed to have sensed it, he lifted his head and saw the cold gaze, but he was not surprised in the slightest. However, Bai Qian, who had his back facing Bei Chen Han, did not see it.
"Elder sister." Su Nuo suddenly shouted, as if this way of addressing him would allow her to hold on for a bit, or perhaps it would be even more cruel to injure him.
Bai Qian was stunned for a moment, but then immediately waited lovingly for Su Nuo to finish.
A light flashed across Beichen's eyes when he heard the name.
Su Nuo no longer looked at Bei Chen Han, but said calmly: "I won't be going, you go with Master to play."
"How can that be?" Bai Qian rejected him without thinking.
The smile on Su Nuo's face was very thick, "Really, I still want to go back and sleep for a while longer." After saying that, she winked at Bai Qian. In reality, Su Nuo wanted to do that, but she didn't know if she did it well.
Bai Qian paused for a moment and then placed the dish into Su Nuo's bowl, saying, "Our family's Na'er is really a sleepyhead, but you're better now. It's good that you don't want to go out." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Is there anything you want to buy? Big sister will buy it for you."
Su Nuo smiled as she shook her head, "As long as I sleep, I'll be fine." Then she continued to eat.
"You." Bai Qian dotingly said.
After dinner, Su Nuo went to the light room, and when she passed under the big tree that had dried up, she raised her head and looked at it.
No matter how you looked at it, it was a dried up color! Just like her, although she was only 18 years old, her world had completely lost its color, leaving behind only a patch of greyish white. In the near future, perhaps all that remained would be black.
Ah, she was already old, and her beautiful older sister, the heavens and the earth!
