Words:1058Update:22/07/01 05:33:25
In the gloomy woodshed, there were occasional sounds of mice crawling in the darkness, as if they were gnawing on the firewood. Coupled with the movements in the night, it made one's heart feel cold.
Gui Momo was alone in the corner. Even though she was only a Momo for so many years, but because she had face in front of Shen Miao, the Second and Third household were willing to give her some face, so she was considered to be doing well in the Shen residence. Sometimes Gui Momo's life was more comfortable than those commoners and wealthy families. It was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. She was not used to hard days, not to mention being locked up in the woodshed like those lowly maids.
Her thin clothes were unable to withstand the cold of the night, but what was colder than her body was her heart. Gui Momo's heart was very fearful of the four maids that were locked up together. Shen Yue's maids were given mute drugs, and one did not know if they could survive. Shen Qing's maids were directly sold to a ninth rank brothel. Ren Wan Yun's methods were so ruthless that she could not help but worry about her own fate.
Gui Momo did not think that Ren Wan Yun would let her off easily. Because she not only witnessed Shen Qing's scandal, but also played an important role in this matter. The one who should have been harmed was Shen Miao, but in the end it was Shen Qing who was defiled. How would Ren Wan Yun let her off so easily?
"Da, da, da." Just as she was thinking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps coming from outside, and it was especially clear in the night.
Gui Momo's body stiffened, and in the darkness, she looked fearfully at the direction of the door.
It seemed to be hope and also despair. What was behind the door? Was it the person that Ren Wan Yun sent to silence her? Or perhaps she still had a trace of life.
The footsteps were not fast nor slow, but it was like a death warrant that struck Gui Momo's heart. Her plump body had long turned into a pile of mud, and her forehead was sweating profusely, and her body seemed to be swaying.
"Zhi ya —" The door was pushed open.
The person who came was carrying a green lantern. The colour of the lantern was somewhat strange, and in this place, it was like a demon demanding for one's life. Gui Momo tremblingly raised her head and saw a person in a white cloak standing at the door. She walked in and slowly closed the door.
There was only the green lantern in the room, emitting a ghostly light. The person who came finally loosened her cloak, revealing a delicate and fair face. It was Shen Miao.
The young girl's figure was slender, and her round and gentle facial features were illuminated by the green light, making her look even more strange. It was precisely because of the carefree expression on his face that made him seem even more like a soul-reaping emissary who had walked out of hell, causing people to actually not dare to look directly at him.
Gui Momo was stunned for a moment before suddenly calling out in surprise, "Young Lady!"
Shen Miao placed the lantern on the ground and walked unhurriedly to Gui Momo before squatting down and smiled gently, "Is Momo alright?"
"Miss, you're here! This old servant knew that Miss would definitely come to save this old servant! Miss has always been kind-hearted and will definitely not sit idly by and ignore this old servant! " It was as if Gui Momo had grabbed onto a life-saving straw as she desperately grabbed onto the corner of Shen Miao's skirt. Tears flowed down her aged face as if she had suffered a hundred and twenty grievances and Shen Miao was her most trusted relative.
Shen Miao swept a glance at Gui Momo's hand that was tightly grabbing onto the corner of her skirt and smiled gently, "It seems that Gui Momo had suffered a lot of hardships here."
Gui Momo was startled for a moment before carefully looking at Shen Miao's expression. Shen Miao's smile was gentle and her appearance was considered calm, but there was no ripple at all in the face of Gui Momo's words. Gui Momo was shocked to discover that this Young Lady whom she had accompanied for so many years, could not see what Shen Miao was thinking at all. She said, "This old servant has served Young Lady all my life and is loyal to Young Lady. On that day in Wo Long Temple, this old servant accidentally saw it. Young Lady, this old servant is innocent. "
