Chapter 184 - Protect With Life.

The look of sheer puzzlement on Feng Siyan's expressionless face made it hard for Lord Tang to contain his chuckle. His fingers wrapped around the glass of Scotch as he cast a look over Feng Siyan's shoulder at Esma. He could feel the wheels turning in her head but chose to ignore it for a moment and cast his attention on the man standing in front of him. 

"Master, you are sending me away from you? What about the task I am assigned to?" Feng Siyan asked Lord Tang, confusion and uncertainty written on his face. 

It was not hard to assume that Feng Siyan was not satisfied with his master's sudden decision to send him to babysit a demon kid even the slightest bit. The woman claimed to be a woman but she was nothing but a kid trapped in an adult's body. 

"Why do I feel like I am sending a new bride to her in-law's home?" Lord Tang asked in amusement. 

"Master, my duty is to stay by your side and keep you safe from all the dangers." It was Feng  Siyan's branded reply. If Feng Siyan were to be a brand his one-line quote would be ' Serving my master only and keeping him from all the dangers!' 

The man didn't give a shit about any other human in this realm. It was like instead of Lord Tang no one else mattered to him at all. 

"Ah-Siyan, do you think I am not capable enough of taking care of myself?"

"Master, you worry about everyone, but you have no one to worry about yourself, so please let me stay by your side and take care of you." Imagine Feng Siyan pleading with that stiff expression of his and that's why Lord Tang was having a hard time hiding his amusement. " And as for Miss Esma, we have so many capable soldiers to keep an eye on her."

Fend Siyan was adamant about not babysitting that demon kid who God threw on the earth to make the life of poor earthlings hell. 

"You are not understanding the gravity of the situation, are you? Ah-Siyan." Lord Tang glanced at him and sipped the drink slowly. " Esma is bigger trouble than I initially thought. She is blinded by the thirst for vengeance and she won't stop until she gets what she wants." He paused and with a sigh, he continued, " She is not normal and people like her couldn't be. She claims to care about Ah-Jie and I know she actually does in her own twisted way but what about the people Ah-Jie cares for? She doesn't give a damn about them and she will not hesitate to hurt them if she had to." 

"She is insane, Master. The type of insane which can't be treated with any medicine present on the earth" said Feng Siyan with a sigh. Finally, an emotion was revealed from him. " She is a liability. The one which will try to drown you with her too." 

"She will eventually get killed by Mrs. Long if she didn't stop now," Feng Siyan added. 

"Right. You know Zhenyi well and what kind of person she really is. She won't blink once before unloading her gun in her head if Esma dared to cause trouble in her life." Lord Tang was indicating that he didn't want her killed. Yet. " You might be thinking that if Esma is killed, the majority of the problem will be solved?" Lord Tang stopped and looked at Feng Siyan who nodded in answer. Lord Tang took a sip on his drink and smiled before continuing. " No, it will be the beginning of the problem. " He paused and heaved out a long, suffering sigh.  Esma is a top player when it comes to playing with the human psyche. She can kill you without touching the weapon. That's how powerful she is." 

Feng Siyan was getting what his master was trying to tell him. He was a very intelligent slave in the first place or that's what he claimed. 

Lord Tang let out a chuckle as he remembered something and said," Do you know how many maids she had hypnotized here? All those women harassing you all day and night, it has been her doing."

Esma could hypnotize anyone and anywhere but it failed on trained men like Long Jie, Lord Tang, and Feng Siyan. Thus, she hypnotized the poor maids and sent them to Feng Siyan's room naked. All those women have been salivating over his handsome face for years now and she just made their jobs easier. 

"She couldn't infuriate you herself but she made someone else do the job. So, Ah-Siyan I don't trust anyone but you when it comes to this little demon." 

"Master, why can't we get rid of her?"

"Someone won't let me and that's how my hands are tied." Lord Tang said with a genuine smile. 

"Is it Long Jie?" Feng Siyan couldn't help but ask. Esma was related to Long Jie so it must be him who didn't want to see her hurt. Everyone who knew him and Esma knew what she meant to him.

However, that someone was not Long Jie. It was someone else who had asked Lord Tang to keep her safe as much as he could and so, he had been keeping her safe from the sidelines all these years. 

So, it was not just for Long Jie only. 

"No, he won't let me either but it's not him this time," said Lord Tang. 

Feng Siyan was left baffled by the hypothesis of who this person might be. However, he had his suspicions about that person but he kept it in his heart as he was aware of that person's place in his master's heart and life. 

"So, what are we going to do with her?" Feng Siyan asked instead. 

"Protect her with life."
