After dinner, Lou Qianxue chatted with Hong Qinghe for a while. When the conversation finished, Hong Qinghe unsteadily walked away with a stunned expression. This made Lou Xiaoxiao curious.
“Qianxue, what happened to Hong Qinghe? Did you scare him again?”
“How could that be?” Lou Qianxue smiled and shook her head. “I just taught him some martial arts.”
“Oh.” All the martial arts that the Lou family practiced came from Lou Qianxue, so Lou Xiaoxiao was not surprised.
Next, Lou Potian introduced the slaves they had bought today to Lou Xiaoxiao and the rest. It was also for the slaves to recognize their masters.
The people from the Moonlight Clan felt inferior and timid. When Lou Xiaoxiao saw their timid gazes, she felt pity for them. “They are so young. Won’t their life get ruined if they become slaves?”
Lou Potian pondered for a moment. “I think so too. They are still young and have yet to grow up. From tomorrow onward, I will find someone to teach them martial arts.”
“Why is there a need to go through so much trouble?” Lou Qianxue took a sip of tea and calmly said, “If you trust me, why don’t you leave them in my care for now?”
Lou Potian’s eyes lit up. “Qianxue, do you have time? If you can guide them, that would be great!”
Although Lou Potian was the oldest person in the Lou family, the most powerful one was undoubtedly Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue nodded. “However, I’ve been rather busy recently, so I might only teach them martial arts techniques suitable for them. As for the other affairs, you will still need to settle them.”
“It’s alright. I’m free anyway. Perhaps, these children will become one of the Lou family’s pillars of support.”
Lou Qianxue’s eyes crinkled as she smiled. When she had bought these people, she had thought the same.
After the introduction of the slaves was done, the Lou family told the members of the Moonlight Clan to leave.
Only a thin, sickly old man was left behind. The old man had already washed up and changed into a new set of clothes, but he was still listless and sickly.
Everyone frowned.
“Grandpa, did you buy him because you pitied him?” a junior from the Lou family asked.
Lou Potian looked at Lou Qianxue and lifted his chin.
The others also looked at Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue stood up. “This is our “butler.” I will tell everyone about him tomorrow. Now, you all should rest. As for you, come with me first.”
She pointed at the old man she had just bought today, and the two of them left together.
Lou Potian and the others looked at each other.
“Why did Miss Qianxue buy such a person?”
“Is that person very special?”
Lou Xiaoxiao stroked her chin. “Anyway, I think Qianxue wouldn’t do something without a reason. That old man must be extraordinary…”
At the same time, in the backyard of the Lou residence, the moonlight shone brightly.
Lou Qianxue stood with her hands behind her back, with a sickly old man following her.
“I don’t care about your background or your past identity…” Lou Qianxue turned around and looked at the old man with a sharp gaze. “Now that the Lou family has bought you, you’re one of us.”
The old man indifferently looked at her. “I’m just a useless old thing. Buying me is your loss.”
“Ha!” Lou Qianxue chuckled. She then raised her eyebrows and said, “If I’m not wrong… I see a deep look of hatred hidden in your eyes. Don’t you want to go back and take revenge one day?”
The old man trembled. He looked at Lou Qianxue in shock. “You… how did you…”
Soon, his gaze dimmed again. “What does it matter if I want to or not? I… can’t do it at all…”
