Liam Drelavine : No Regrets! - Chapter 41

Keeping Watch

'The banquet ended in peace fortunately. However

one could not say how the Ministers would take it and treat the Ren household from now on.'

'The moment the Emperor had the time to be alone in his throne room

he called for his shadow guard.'

'"Twelve."'

'A shadow quickly appeared and bow in front of His Majesty.'

'"You have been to the Ren household. You know more about the experts that were hiding there. I trust you can be my eye in that household. Especially

that Lady Ren. Watch her for me. Report to me immediately how her relationship to Ren Shou progress. And anything unusual has to be reported to me. "'

'".." Twelve was silent for a moment.'

'"Why you are not answering?" The Emperor's voice turned vicious.'

'"Your Majesty

this servant would do His Majesty's order. But I am afraid I will only last for a half a day. I am willing to lay down my life for His majesty and the throne. But the other shadow guards was most likely on par with me. I am afraid this will be..." 'futile' Twelve wanted to say the last word but he hesitated. The man in front of him was the Emperor

the most powerful person in Ren Empire under the heaven.'

'If he say that

it was the same as saying that the Emperor's effort would be in vain. How could he

a lowly servant

tell that the Emperor's plan would surely fail? That would be blasphemy.'

'In his heart

Twelve wanted to explain that the Ren household was not that easy to invade. That one servant by Lady's Ren side was already so formidable in strength and ability.'

'He was not afraid to lose his life. He just found it wasteful to go there and be killed.'

'"Are you disobeying Us?" The Emperor's vicious tone made Twelve kneel on the ground. A loud 'putong' sounded in the throne room.'

'"This servant is willing to die for His majesty! " Twelve had no choice but to comply without arguing back.'

'Shadow guards like him does not needed any explanation from their master. Even their master asked them to jump off the cliff.'

'If he die today

another shadow guard would take his place and die tomorrow like him.'

'Twelve clenched his hand. He was nothing but just an expendable tool willing to be wasted.'

'***'

'The Ren Household was quite big and stunning. But the De Residence was a lot more bigger than this residence. However

Xiao Min felt that this residence was bigger and spacious as she looked at the servants who quickly avoided her like she had a plague.'

'But Xiao Min was not offended. She knew why the loyal servant of the Ren Household kept their distance away from her.'

'She and the servants was there at the time when their Masters 'fought' in the banquet two days ago.'

'After the banquet

her Miss

Lady Ren changed to her normal outfit and coaxed Ren Shou.'

'But the Master was quite a stubborn one. He did not take a step out from his study room and did not sleep in Madam's room. This made the servant's speculations got stronger that the fight that time was quite a serious one.'

'The two had only been married for over two weeks

but they already had an argument like this.'

'For women who just married out recently and had this kind of argument with their husband

was a bad omen and an unfortunate event. They had to fix their relationship with their husband as quickly as possible. And they have to make sure that they don't fell out of favor. Their husband could get another wife and abonded their other wife in a cold courtyard.'

'That would be really bad if it happened to her Lady.'

'So Xiao Min was really upset right now. She was there when it happened so she also knew it was her Master's fault. Her Master's prank went too much.'

'It was the second day now that the husband and wife did not meet at all. They both have their own meals in their own room.'

'There was already a rumor that Lady Ren had touched the General's bottom line and he would divorced her. This was too much

Xiao Min thought. She had seen how the Master of this house treated her Master. She knew that the couple would overcome this cold war and would be back to being lovey dovey again.'

'Xiao Min went to Li Amm's room holding a tray of snacks. She had to convince her Master to check on Master Ren Shou's study room and brought him snacks personally. With this

Master Ren Shou would see that her Master was really sincere in asking forgiveness.'

'But the moment she entered the room

she almost dropped down the tray she was holding.'

'"Oh! Buddha!" Xiao Min was so shocked to see Li Amm folding her bones in different positions.'

'"Young Miss! Are you hurt?!" She quickly put away the tray and tried to correct Li Amm's posture.'

'"Hey

I'm doing Yoga. Relax

it doesn't hurt." Li Amm explained as she put her left feet near her face.'

'Gasped.'

'Xiao Min covered her mouth. Her Young Miss! Must be feeling sorrowful with this turn of events! Who wouldn't be! Her husband had been ignoring her and there was news that he would divorced her!'

'(A/n: hey

it's only a rumor earlier

why it suddenly become a news?)'

'Her Young Miss looked happy and carefree most of the time. But sometimes

Her Young Miss was serious too! She was like a mature adult when they were young. Xiao Min knew that behind those naughty tricks was a genuine lady who wanted to be loved by her husband.'

'(A/n: are you sure the Li Amm I know and the Li Amm you know is the same? )'

'That was every woman's dreams.'

'"Young Miss! Don't be troubled by Master's indifference to you! Don't torture yourself like this! What will I do when you die?" Xiao Min started crying.'

'"..." Li Amm who was enjoying her Yoga.'

'She stopped her stretching and wear her outer clothes.'

'"Don't cry

Little Min. No one died doing this. Besides

I will never torture myself to die. " Li Amm comforted this little girl who had a broken dam in her eyes. Those tears were really wasted on this nonsense.'

'"Anyway

that does man come out from his study room?" Li Amm casually asked as she took a bite from the muffin that was in the tray.'

'Xiao Min wiped her tears and distanced the tray away from Li Amm.'

'"Master hasn't come out yet. It's been two days now. This servant witnessed Master's love for you. For sure

this time his heart would turn soft. If you brought this to him personally

he would be surely be move by your sincerity

Young Mi- Lady." Xiao Min could still not get used to calling Li Amm

a Lady. For her

she was still her Young Miss that she needed to take care of.'

'Li Amm heard her words. She patted Xiao Min's head and smiled at her. Her smile was like an aunt who would smile to her adopted child.'

'"There's nothing to worry about

Little Min." She comforted her.'

'Li Amm was not saying empty words.'

'Xiao Min's words made her confirm some things. Her eyes glint mysteriously and her smile turned more playful as she wondered who would eat those food that was served in the study room.'
