Chapter 126. To adapt to one's taste (3)
Su Luo lifted her eyebrows with a smile that was not a smile: “May I ask, is Steward Xu in?”
Steward Xu? A complicated expression flashed across Steward Leng’s face; Steward Xu’s identity was mysterious, and was not someone he could casually offend.
He stared at Su Luo, turned around, then walked away, but he still left behind a single sentence: “Let them in.”
Even though he was merely a steward, he was actually arrogant to this extent … Su Luo shook her head, she would not bother with this type of person. However if he committed such offense within her hands, then he better beseech good fortune for himself.
With a servant leading the way, Su Luo was very quickly reunited with Steward Xu.
Although Steward Xu did not experience that kind of difficult situation of kneeling outside the doors, he was not much better off.
Steward Leng had placed Steward Xu in room located in a side wing of the manor. A young maid was standing on the side waiting for orders; if hungry, there were pastries on the table, if thirsty, there was tea that was neither hot nor cold, fulfilling the basic requirements mandated by etiquette. However, he still wouldn’t let Steward Xu meet with Apothecary Leng.
Steward Xu’s entire face was full of anxiety. “We can endure it but master can’t, this won’t do! I must personally look for Apothecary Leng. I don’t believe that based on master’s prestige, that he, Leng Yan, would dare to utter the word ‘no’!”
Although this manor was the Tigerwolf Regiment’s secret base, in order to save His Highness, this kind of risk was worth taking.
