Chapter 602 - 242 The Tragic Mingzhu
The next day before dawn, Yueyao dragged me from my bed, under the noble pretext of morning lessons. As soon as Luo Mingzhu opened her eyes, she began to regret it.
Yueyao snorted coldly, "You agreed to it yourself, to follow my lead in everything before you return. Once words are out, you can’t take them back."
Mingzhu clutched her blanket and refused to let go.
Seeing Luo Mingzhu didn’t care, Yueyao chuckled, "You said it yourself yesterday, if you go back on your word, you’ll turn into a little dog. Don’t tell me you actually want to become a dog in your next life."
Luo Mingzhu felt she’d been tricked.
Yueyao added another sentence, "This is Zhaohua Temple. The vows you made yesterday were heard by Buddha and all the Bodhisattvas. If you fail to keep your promise, you’re definitely going to be a dog in your next life."
In those times, people held great reverence for gods and Buddhas, and Mingzhu was no exception. Thinking about her vows, she shivered and quickly scrambled out of bed.
Yueyao smiled with pursed lips.
The water for Luo Mingzhu’s face-washing was warm, but she was dissatisfied, muttering, "Why so little water? It’s really inconvenient. We should set up a small kitchen!" Having a small kitchen would make everything easier, but Yueyao ignored her.
After Yueyao finished her toilette and the maid styled her hair, Luo Mingzhu, with a scowl, let Zhi Qin help her. Yueyao paid her no mind, and once everything was in order, the Zhong Sheng bell rang for morning lessons. Yueyao pulled Luo Mingzhu into the room to begin.
