Finest Servant

Chapter 72

Chapter 72 The Eldest Miss (Part One)

Having exited the gates of the Miaoyu Pavilion, Lin Wanrong felt as elated as if he had eaten a urine-boiled meatball, recalling Qin Xian'er's shy and irritated expression when he asked her questions. You little girl, no matter how much of a shape-shifting witch you are, you can't outplay me, he thought.

Thinking of the young master, Lin Wanrong suddenly slapped his forehead. "Damn it, Young Master Guo is still inside!" In his haste to leave, he had forgotten to ask Qin Xian'er where she had taken Guo Wuchang. What a miscalculation.

Just as he was regretting, he saw a figure staggering out of the Miaoyu Pavilion. From the silhouette, it seemed to be Young Master Guo.

Lin Wanrong hurried over and called out, "Young Master"

The man raised his head, his face full of fresh red lipstick marks. It was Guo Wuchang.

"Young Master, what happened to you" Lin Wanrong quickly asked.

"That little lady, she's quite the handful," Guo Wuchang said, reeking of alcohol and grinning from ear to ear.

Without further explanation, Lin Wanrong knew what had happened. Qin Xian'er must have arranged a courtesan to appease Young Master Guo.

While he was having a spiritual connection with Qin Xian'er, Young Master Guo had found a woman to physically connect with. Lin Wanrong shook his head, "Men, they really can't resist beautiful women."

Young Master Guo was covered in the scent of makeup, his face kissed by numerous women, leaving fresh red lipstick marks everywhere. Add to that his drunken state, he was staggering so much it was unbearable to watch. With no other choice, Lin Wanrong had to support him, heading towards the Xiao Mansion.

When they were not far from the mansion, the clip-clop of horse hooves accompanied by the sound of a carriage wheel reached their ears. Lin Wanrong looked back to see a carriage slowly passing by them, a man on a white horse and several servants were escorting the carriage.

"Squeak" With a few light sounds, the carriage slowly came to a halt. A clear voice came from inside the carriage, "Is that Cousin Guo walking outside?"

"It's not Cousin Guo, it's your Brother Lin." Guo Wuchang was heavy, and Lin Wanrong was struggling to support him. He was annoyed and without thinking who was asking, he answered dismissively.

"How dare you!" A man's angry shout. The man on the white horse turned his horse's head around and came over in a few strides, pointing at Lin Wanrong with his riding whip, "You servant, you've got some nerve, speaking so disrespectfully."

The man was in his twenties, about as tall as Lin Wanrong, dignified, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, handsome like Zhu Shimao. He was riding a white horse, exuding a powerful aura in his anger.

[Zhu Shimao is a famous Chinese actor during the 1980s and 1990s]

A Prince Charming on a white horse? Lin Wanrong suddenly thought of this phrase. Undeniably, this man was very good-looking and exuded a strong masculine charm, not comparable to those frail scholars, very appealing to girls.

Damn, just because he's on a white horse, does it make him a prince? He might be just another Monk Tang, acting all pompous. Lin Wanrong grumbled inwardly.

[Monk Tang is the Monk from Journey to the West]

Seeing the man staring at him with disdain, Lin Wanrong was angry but didn't look at him. Instead, he shouted at the white horse, "You beast that looks more like a donkey than a horse, what's the meaning of blocking my way?"

However, the man was not to be trifled with. Hearing Lin Wanrong's insult, he shouted in anger, "You insolent servant! I will teach you a lesson on behalf of Miss Xiao." With that, he raised his whip and lashed it mercilessly towards Lin Wanrong.

Lin Wanrong was startled. Damn it, who said you could just hit me? He was supporting someone, making it hard for him to move. If he dodged, the whip would hit Guo Wuchang.

At the crucial moment, Lin Wanrong leaned to the side with Guo Wuchang, and the two rolled on the ground, avoiding the whip. When he got up, he was covered in mud and looked extremely disheveled.

The man was surprised that the servant dared to dodge. He was about to strike again when he heard the lady in the carriage say, "Young Master Tao, please stop."

Young Master Tao glared at Lin Wanrong, then turned to the carriage and said, "Miss Xiao, this servant is so disrespectful. Let me punish him on your behalf."

The lady in the carriage was silent for a while before saying, "This is a matter for the Xiao family, Brother Tao. Please allow me to handle it."

Hearing Miss Xiao call him Brother Tao, a smile appeared on Young Master Tao's face. "Since you've said so, Sister, I'll let you handle it."

In just a little while, they had started calling each other 'brother' and 'sister'. Lin Wanrong was furious. Suddenly, he remembered that this Young Master Tao had called the person in the carriage Miss Xiao, and both the carriage and Young Master Tao were covered in dust. Recalling that Xiao Yushuang had said her sister would be returning tonight, could it be that the person in the carriage was the Eldest Miss Xiao?

Lin Wanrong felt bitter inside. If it really was the Eldest Miss Xiao, even though he had unintentionally taken advantage of her earlier, the fact remained. If she had heard it, there would be trouble in the future.

As they were talking, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a slender young lady stepped out.

The young lady was in her twenties, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and lips like crimson spots. She had an oval face, almond-shaped eyes, a pointed nose, and was incredibly beautiful. Looking at her features, she resembled Lady Xiao by sixty to seventy percent. No wonder the painting could fool even Xiao Yushuang.

Even without thinking, Lin Wanrong knew this lady must be Eldest Miss Xiao. He sighed inwardly. Tonight really is a terrible night.

Eldest Miss Xiao looked like she had been traveling for a long time, her face was covered in dust, and she had a resolute look. There was a hint of worry between her eyebrows. Compared to Qin Xian'er, she was less flirtatious but had a stronger sense of determination.

A maidservant jumped down from the carriage to help Eldest Miss Xiao down. Young Master Tao quickly went forward, holding the reins with one hand and extending the other to assist Eldest Miss Xiao.

Eldest Miss Xiao gratefully smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Tao." However, she didn't allow him to help her down, instead, she held the hand of the little maidservant and landed on her feet.

On the ground, Guo Wuchang rolled around, the alcohol effect lessening a bit. Hearing his cousin's voice, he was terrified and quickly grabbed Lin Wanrong's hand, "Lin San, my cousin is back, we should hide."

Having been caught red-handed sneaking out for a drink, Lin Wanrong also thought of the same. The two of them moved in unison, turning to sneak away.

"Cousin Guo, where are you going?" Eldest Miss Xiao's voice came from behind. She had recognized Guo Wuchang earlier, and seeing him trying to hide, she asked.

Lin Wanrong felt a bit relieved, thankfully, it didn't seem like Eldest Miss Xiao wanted to hold him accountable.

With nowhere to hide, Guo Wuchang had to stop and said, "Ah, ah, it's you, cousin Yuruo, you're finally back. Your mother and cousin Yushuang are waiting for you." As he spoke, he surreptitiously wiped away the various marks on his face.

Xiao Yuruo walked up to the two of them, glanced at Lin Wanrong, and said something that made him tremble, "You insolent servant, for your disrespectful words, you'll be slapped twenty times."

Lin Wanrong stared dumbfoundedly at Eldest Miss Xiao. This girl was too ruthless. She was quite good-looking, but her opening move was so severe, it was too heartless.

Seeing the servant rudely staring at her, Xiao Yuruo angrily said, "Do you dare to defy?"

Young Master Tao walked over and said, "Sister, let me discipline this servant."

Lin Wanrong thought it was somewhat acceptable for Xiao Yuruo to speak, but when did it become this Tao guy's turn? Riding a white horse, did he really think he was a prince?

Lin Wanrong glared at Young Master Tao and said, "This is a matter of the Xiao family, it's not your place, a groom, to intervene."

Young Master Tao had just led Eldest Miss Xiao's horse by the reins, so in everyone's eyes, Lin Wanrong's sarcastic remark of him being a groom was quite fitting.

Young Master Guo was hanging his head, but hearing Lin Wanrong's words, he couldn't help but feel delighted. This Tao guy, it was obvious that he was trying to curry favor with his cousin. Of course, he wasn't pleased, and Lin San just vented his frustration for him.

Young Master Tao was extremely annoyed, but since Xiao Yuruo didn't say anything, and Lin Wanrong wasn't wrong in calling him an outsider, he just gave a cold laugh and remained silent.

This Young Master Tao was really cunning. Lin Wanrong saw how quickly he quieted down and was taken aback, realizing that this man was not to be underestimated.

Seeing this servant's audaciousness, ferocious look, and subtle show of aggression, Xiao Yuruo was also startled. She wondered when this servant had appeared in the mansion, why hadn't she seen him before?

Lin Wanrong said to Xiao Yuruo, "Miss, my name is Lin San, I'm a new servant in the mansion."

"You are that contract worker Lin San?" Xiao Yuruo was somewhat surprised. Before she left, she had heard of a contract worker, but due to her hurried departure, she didn't have time to inquire further. She didn't expect that this tall and rather appealing servant in front of her was that contract worker Lin San.

"No matter who you are, as long as you're a servant of the Xiao family, such disrespectful speech deserves punishment," Xiao Yuruo said coldly. Having experienced the business world for a long time, she was savvy in dealing with situations and had a strong-willed aura.

"Disrespectful? Miss, what do you mean by that?" Lin Wanrong pretended to be alarmed, "Just now I heard someone call 'Cousin Guo', I thought I heard it wrong, so I made a joke. Does Miss think I would disrespect you?"

Even though she knew Lin San was making excuses, his last sentence left Xiao Yuruo unable to respond. Although she was experienced, she didn't have the same thick skin as Lin Wanrong. If she were to punish him, it would seem as though she was admitting to his claim of disrespect towards her.

Seeing the servant's slick talk and smooth words, Xiao Yuruo was annoyed, but as an extraordinary woman, she just sneered, "You're only good at verbal battles, that won't make you successful."
