Although Hongyu had felt sorry for Lin Mengya because of Sumei.
But today, in the face of death, Hongyu still stood firmly in front of her and shielded her from all the dangers.
Lin Mengya would remember this friendship in her heart.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. But how can we go out? The boss … is not easy to deal with. "
Even though the previous time, the Workshop Master had been merciful and let them go.
But it did not mean that a miracle would happen this time.
Her death was not to be regretted, but the princess and Xiu should not have been trapped here.
Lin Mengya wanted to comfort Hongyu, but the walls had ears. It was not convenient for her to say something.
She just held Hongyu's hand gently and said in a low voice,
"Trust me."
Seeing that Lin Mengya wanted to say something but stopped on second thought Hongyu, who did not have much hope, thought that the princess was comforting her.
After a wry smile, he nodded lightly.
The three of them sat there in silence, each with their own thoughts. Not long after, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside.
Then, Han Ling's respectful voice reached their ears.
"Boss, they are all inside."
"Okay."
A pair of slender hands gently pushed open the door.
Then, with a gentle smile, the mysterious owner looked at the three women who had suddenly stood up in the room.
"Sorry for the neglect. The servants are not sensible. Come, serve tea."
He was still as gentle and elegant as before, and just as mysterious and unfathomable.
At this moment, Lin Mengya looked at the boss warily.
"I'm sorry for being rude. My name is Zhu Yun. Please take a seat, Your Highness."
Zhu Yun was not in a hurry at all. He sat on the seat of honor unhurriedly.
Seeing him like this, Lin Mengya suppressed the vigilance in her heart. She sat opposite Zhu Yun in silence, but there was no extra expression on her face. Lin Mengya could not tell what she was really thinking.
"Princess Yu, no, maybe it's more appropriate for me to call you Princess Anle here. But I'm not surprised that you could find this place. "
Zhu Yun smiled. He did not sound like he was talking to an enemy.
Instead, it was as if he was reminiscing about the past with an acquaintance.
"You can call me whatever you want. I think Mr. Zhu probably understands that if I can get in, I can get out."
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous. This Zhu Yun always gave her a mysterious feeling.
However, there was one thing she could be sure of, and that was that this person was an enemy and not a friend.
"Of course. As long as the princess wishes to, you can leave this place at any time. No one will dare to stop you. However, I have a presumptuous request. I wonder if I can borrow something from you? "
Zhu Yun said it casually, but Lin Mengya was very vigilant.
Borrow? Could it be that she had to lend him her head just because he wanted it?
Seeing her like this, Zhu Yun smiled in a friendly manner, and then said softly:
"I heard that the princess's mother used to be the last disciple of the former chief elder of the Pavilion of Herbs. Since she had inherited the Great Elder's legacy, this thing might be in the hands of the First Princess. I'm just borrowing it. I hope you'll be willing to part with it. "
Lin Mengya suddenly understood.
"What you want is the music score for the green stringed instrument, right? It's a pity that the music score for the green stringed instrument has been destroyed. Whether you believe it or not, this is all I want to say. "
Hearing that the music score for the green stringed instrument had been destroyed, Zhu Yun frowned slightly.
However, when Lin Mengya said this, her eyes were calm, and it didn't look like she was lying.
"In this … in this case, I can only ask you to stay here for a few days. But rest assured, Your Highness, I will send a message to Prince Yu. You don't have to worry about anything. "
It seemed that he still hadn't given up.
Lin Mengya had long known that no one would believe her words so easily.
The corner of her mouth curled up into a cold smile. Now, she was not in a hurry.
"You can really ask me to stay here for a while, or use me to threaten Long Tianhao. No means no. Moreover, you won't be able to stay here soon. Why don't you kill me or let me go? It'll be more convenient. "
What Lin Mengya said was true.
Seeing her confident look, Zhu Yun looked as if he had seen a joke, and the smile at the corner of his mouth widened.
However, his eyes were filled with coldness.
"You're really smart, but if we're going to leave, maybe it's a good choice to take you with us. After all, with your current status, I think there is no one in the Nation of Lintian who would not give you face, right? "
Was this a threat?
Lin Mengya fixed her eyes on Zhu Yun. Indeed, Zhu Yun was a smart man. It was always more difficult to deal with smart people.
"Yes, you can use me as a shield. You can even use me as a bargaining chip to threaten Long Tianhao and Zuo Qiuchen. But you're a smart man, Mr. Zhu. You should know that it's not the best idea to ask a tiger for its skin. You can't keep me by your side forever. Of course, you can't afford to keep me. "
Seeing that Lin Mengya had regained her composure so quickly, Zhu Yun also abandoned the hypocritical smile on his face.
"You're really smart, Your Highness. It's no wonder that someone would risk his life to stop me from making things difficult for you. Since I've promised someone, I can't go back on my word. Don't worry, Your Highness. Three days later, you'll be able to walk out of here openly. As for the next three days, please rest here peacefully, Your Highness. "
Zhu Yun's words aroused Lin Mengya's curiosity again.
Last time, Zhu Yun said that he had let her go because he owed someone a favor.
Now, was it because of that person again? All of a sudden, an idea flashed across her mind, and a name came to her mind.
"Elder Sister, this person is so strange," Xiu said in a low voice.
A moment ago, he dared to threaten Elder Sister, the princess. Why did he say that they could stay here for three days in the next moment?
This person was really capricious.
"Yes, he's very strange. Your Highness, do you know anyone familiar with the owner? "
It was the same for Hongyu. Back when they were in Huichun House, the owner did not show up often, but he was very ruthless.
Not to mention sparing anyone, even the women in the workshop would tremble uncontrollably at the mention of the owner.
But why did he go easy on Lin Mengya again and again?
"He's … a friend of mine. Maybe he's an old acquaintance."
She did not need to think to know that the person Zhu Yun mentioned must be Qinghu.
She felt a little guilty. He always risked his life for her.
But she couldn't do anything for him.
She might not be able to repay what she owed Qinghu in this lifetime.
"I see. That's good. Since the owner said so, we'll be able to get out of here in three days. Don't worry, Your Highness. I heard that the owner is a man of his word. "
Hongyu was a little excited to escape from death.
But suddenly, there was a commotion outside.
The three of them looked out and saw a few strong male servants in gray dragging a figure who kept rolling on the ground.
"Sumei … it's Sumei!"
Hong Yu exclaimed. Just as she was about to rush out, she was blocked by Han Ling.
"Please, let me go out and see her!"
Hong Yu begged Han Ling, but his face was cold and indifferent. There was no change in his expression at all.
Sumei, who was howling, heard Hongyu's voice. Somehow, she got the strength to break free from the man's hand. She staggered and tried to run to Hongyu.
"Sister, I was wrong! Save me! I don't want to die! "
Lin Mengya then saw clearly that Sumei's face had been disfigured by a few hideous wounds.
She could almost see the bones in the open wounds.
His hair was disheveled, and his luxurious clothes had long been stained with blood and dust, making them unbearably dirty.
If it were not for Hongyu, Lin Mengya would not have recognized that this person was the arrogant Sumei.
"Sumei, you … how did you become like this?"
Hongyu looked at her sister with heartache. But Sumei was no match for the two men.
She was caught by them before she could run away.
Once again, the blind punches and kicks landed on her body.
For a moment, Su Mei's miserable screams sent chills down the spines of others.
"Don't beg, Hongyu."
Lin Mengya frowned. She did not want to get involved in this matter.
Sumei could only blame herself for what happened today. She could not blame anyone, nor did she deserve Hongyu to plead for her.
"Your Highness, I know you have a way. Please, save my sister. I beg you. "
Once again, Hongyu knelt in front of Lin Mengya because of Sumei.
Although she had been hurt by Sumei again and again. However, this kind-hearted woman could not bear to see her younger sister being tortured in such a manner.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me. Master, Sumei knows she's wrong! Sumei knows she's wrong! "
On the other side, Sumei was rolling on the ground in pain. However, those punches and kicks still landed mercilessly on her body.
Lin Mengya looked at Hongyu, who had tears in her eyes.
"Even if you save her, do you think she will still be alive?"
Hong Yu was stunned for a moment. Sumei's cries were extremely shrill outside the door. But even without Lin Mengya's words, Hong Yu knew that Sumei must have been tortured.
"I understand. Please do me one last favor, Your Highness. If you agree, I will be grateful and serve you for the rest of my life. "
Hongyu kowtowed heavily and closed her red eyes helplessly.
"Okay, I promise you."
In a place like this, Sumei's mistake would not be easily forgiven.
