Zhong Miao Yi looked at her. She was a girl with big, watery eyes, and she was shaking badly but she still dared to look straight into her eyes.
"How old are you?" Zhong Miao Yi bowed and asked.
"Thirteen." Her voice was crisp, like a wind chime.
"Then can I give you a name?" Zhong Miao Yi smiled, as if he could see the people from the past on this girl, "Is the bell okay?"
"But I don't have a bell."
Hearing this, she also laughed, "Then I will call you 'Lingdang', thank you elder sister."
Ban Qiu could tell that Zhong Miao Yi liked this girl. She turned around and looked at Ban Qiu: "Can she stay by my side?"
Ban Qiu shrugged her shoulders: "Xiao Yi, we are only here to make a decision. When she returns to our residence, you can ask Su Zeyi."
The light in Zhong Miao Yi's eyes dimmed. Would Su Zeyi agree? She still didn't know what he was going to do, so this request seemed a little excessive.
Bell did not know who Zhong Miao Yi was, nor did she know who the man lying on the side was, and did not even know what kind of fate awaited her. She simply felt that Zhong Miao Yi was not a bad person, and knelt down.
Zhong Miao Yi was a little depressed: "Little Sister?"
"Sister is a mute. When the Lady Boss bought me, she didn't buy my sister." As Zhong Lingdang spoke, her eyes started to turn red, "Sister and I are mutually dependent, please save her."
Seeing that the Zhong Miao Yi was softhearted, Ban Qiu immediately warned, "Don't act blindly without thinking, be careful he might be angry."
Zhong Miao Yi was not afraid that he would get angry, she was even a little angry that he thought that it was better if he got angry, hence she comforted her softly: "I will send someone to take a look, what characteristics does she have?"
"My sister looks the same as I do."
It was actually a pair of twins.
This time Ban Qiu was interested, "Oh? Interesting. Maybe he really will be interested? "
"Then there's nothing you can do." He sighed, "Forget it, as the saying goes, you have to sacrifice your life to accompany the king. Today, I am willing to sacrifice my life to accompany the woman. Let's just take a look and treat it as a present to celebrate your return."
After saying that, he jumped off the bed and disappeared without a trace.
She continuously kowtowed to Zhong Miao Yi: "Thank you elder sister, in the future, I am willing to repay elder sister's kindness."
She was no longer as nervous as she was in the beginning. In her eyes, Zhong Miao Yi was now the Great Sage who saved her.
Zhong Miao Yi told her to go sit at the side and give her a plate of pastries. She didn't know how long it had been since this child last ate, but she stuffed it into her mouth.
Even more pitiful were the remaining little girls.
When they saw that the bell actually had something to eat, they all opened their eyes wide and continuously swallowed their saliva.
The Zhong Miao Yi interrogated them one by one. Most of them only knew where they had come from, moving around the world without any parents. Even if there were, their memories were vague.
Among the five girls, there was only one who was only twelve years old. She was thin and didn't seem to be well-developed. There wasn't much flesh on her face, but her facial features were good.
The Zhong Miao Yi did not give each of them a name. Su Zeyi had her own rules, so these people had to give all of them their own names.
After eating for a while, Bell stopped eating. A person stood at the window in a daze.
Zhong Miao Yi sat beside her and followed her gaze. "Are you thinking about your sister?"
Bell nodded, her tears rolling down her cheeks. "I'm too young, I can't protect my sister."
Zhong Miao Yi's heart was shaken in that short moment.
"When you're strong enough, you can protect yourself. But before that, you must learn to protect yourself." Zhong Miao Yi didn't know why she had to say so much to her.
These words were all said to her by Su Zeyi before, and now, saying it out from her mouth was a little strange.
Ban Qiu didn't go for long. When he returned, he was holding a little girl in her arms.
It was just as Bell had said, this girl looked exactly like her. The only difference was that there was a mole at the corner of her eyes, making her look even more energetic.
Bell hugged her little sister for a long time without being able to say anything. Her little sister was sensible too, so she lifted her hand to wipe her tears.
Ban Qiu was not the type of person who would listen to words of thanks. Afraid that the bell would kneel down and kowtow while crying, he directly asked the Zhong Miao Yi: "Have you finished choosing? All of them will be taken away? "
Zhong Miao Yi nodded: "Yes, we will take them all."
Ban Qiu laughed: "I wonder how many will be left in this batch."
After he finished speaking, he brought the group of young girls back to the carriage and took a detour back to the Su Clan.
This time, they entered through the back door as before. These children had never seen such a huge mansion. Looking around, they were at a loss as to what to do.
Xiao Yao did not wait on her. Zhong Miao Yi felt it was strange, those children were brought by Ban Qiu to change their clothes, then they had to kowtow to Old Madam Su.
"Where's Xiao Yao?" Zhong Miao Yi asked. Turning around to go look, she had a bad premonition.
Su Zeyi said calmly: "She went to the place she was supposed to go."
The blood on Zhong Miao Yi's body instantly turned cold.
She knew what this meant. Anger had broken through her rationality, and her voice was choked with sobs. "You killed her."
She didn't use questions, she was sure.
Su Zeyi did not say anything. Zhong Miao Yi could hear the sound of his clothes flapping as he got up. "You should know the rules, Miaoyi."
"She doesn't know anything!" Zhong Miao Yi roared with all her might.
She felt powerless.
It was because she was too slow, and it was also because she was too conceited.
She thought that she was already able to protect Xiao Yao and was extremely wrong. In Su Zeyi's eyes, killing a servant was no different from stepping on an ant.
"You've already used your feelings in too many wrong places. It's not a good thing for you to take her with you, understand?" Su Zeyi stopped in his tracks, and did not turn back to look at her. "If you want to save one, then you are destined to have to sacrifice everything else."
