Fortunately, Yuan did not feel guilty, but looked at Meng fearlessly and said seriously:
"She is mine now. Not only will I never let her go, but even if she wants to run away someday, I will never let her escape, and the same goes for you."
After Yuan finished speaking, the room fell into a brief silence, and the two of them just stared at each other without giving in.
"..."
"..."
After a long while, Meng retracted his gaze, turned around and walked out of the room:
"Okay, I hope you keep your word."
After saying that, he slammed the door.
At the same time, Yuan in the room also breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the bed with a lingering fear on his face.
This was the first time that a girl could make him feel such tremendous pressure. The mental pressure felt even more terrifying than the first time he faced Tirana in her true form. The look in her eyes seemed to be able to kill people.
"Tsk, I never thought that such a soft girl could have such a scary look in her eyes. Did she pick up a toy with a self-destruct function..."
However, if used properly, it's still great~
Although Meng's eyes were scary, Yuan was not too worried. As long as the fall was complete, no matter how dangerous the little hedgehog was, it would only show its soft belly in front of him and let him play with it.
Humming a little tune after the incident, Yuan happily removed the bloodstains from the bed sheet and put it away.
This is his record of success.
On the other side, after coming out of Yuan's room in a strange posture, Meng saw another familiar person at the door:
The hateful woman who once pressed her on the devil's throne and let the devil bully her!
Seeing Islena with the same surprised expression, Meng didn't want to pay attention to Islena. After all, the other party's strength was more terrifying than the current Demon King. She was afraid that the other party might suddenly have a brain spasm, hold her down and send the Demon King back to the bed, then she would be killed again.
She didn't believe that the beast would let go of the food that was delivered to his mouth.
But Isrena stopped in front of Meng, looked at him carefully and said with interest:
"I didn't expect it was you. Nice to meet you again, the little assassin who escaped~"
Iselaina still remembered the assassin girl who escaped from her for the first time. She dreamed of catching her back to make up for her mistake. However, she did not expect that when they met for the second time, she had already fallen into Yuan's trap and was eaten by him.
Although it was a pity that it didn't go through her hands, but at least she helped in the process (turning on the sound insulation), so I felt somewhat involved.
He dreamed that Islena had stopped him, and he immediately became alert. He endured the discomfort between his legs and took a step back:
"Don't come over here! I've already made a contract with the devil... that guy. His identity won't be exposed. And he was the one who let me go, so you can't take me back!"
When she spoke, there was a hint of fear in Meng's voice, and her slender white silk calves trembled slightly.
She was not afraid that Islena would attack her, but she was afraid that Islena would send her back to Yuan and she would suffer again.
That beast, the devil, is simply a pervert!
In just half an hour, she felt as if her body was not her own, and a certain part of her body was still burning, as it was swollen by that beast!
If it happened again, she doubted whether her small body could withstand it.
She would rather do a 1,000-kilometer training with extreme weights now than do it again!
Fortunately, Islena had no intention of taking her down. She just folded her arms and looked at her with a slight smile:
"Relax, I have no intention of taking you back. With your current strength, since you came out of Yuan's room, it proves that he took the initiative to let you out. I will definitely not go to the trouble of arresting you again."
"But~ since you are my maid, you should call me Miss when you see me, right? Or did Aunt Anna fail to teach you maids' etiquette?"
The Aunt Anna that Islena mentioned is naturally the head maid in the manor, who is also her mother's personal maid. Because she grew up with her mother and they are like sisters, the sisters Islena and Islando both call the head maid Anna "Aunt".
After hearing what Islena said, Meng was stunned and said in astonishment:
"Is this your house?!"
Oh my god, it turns out she has run to the enemy's lair!
She had been looking for Yuan outside for the past few days, but it turned out to be a mystery.
"That's right. So, if you don't want to lose your job, please pay your respects to me quickly. If I'm not satisfied, I will ask Aunt Anna to fire you directly~"
Looking at Meng's expression as if he had eaten a fly, Iselena smiled happily. She had been tricked by the opponent at the beginning and the little ball of fluff had run away. Today she finally got back at him.
Although Isleina didn't know the specific content of the contract she signed with Yuan, since Yuan had released her, it meant there would definitely be a next time, and she would even have to take the initiative to come to him. In other words, she must be able to enter and exit her own manor freely. Otherwise, with the security level in the manor, it would be difficult for her to sneak in from the outside.
In this case, she cannot give up her job as a maid for the time being.
Isn't this a harsh punishment for Islena?
She smiled and waited for Meng to salute her.
She must take this opportunity to teach this little girl a lesson.
And Meng was just as Iselena thought. She couldn't lose this job for the time being, not only because it would become difficult to assassinate Yuan after losing this job.
More importantly, she had no money to eat!
If this job didn't provide her with food and accommodation, she might have to live on the streets.
Don't think it's easy for her to make money just because she has the ability, that's elsewhere.
In the imperial capital, there are basically no money-making tasks in the Adventurer's Guild. After all, there are no dangerous areas nearby. And with her strength, she is not enough here at all. Without any special skills, the most she can do is to guard the door, move things and other jobs, and food and accommodation may not be provided. Otherwise, she can only take risks and do money-making businesses that are prohibited by imperial law.
The more dangerous the place, the easier it is to demonstrate your strength, and the safer the place, the harder it is.
Under pressure, Meng Ye could only grit his teeth, bow respectfully to Islena with a dark face:
"I'm sorry, Miss. I just arrived, so I don't know you. I hope you can forgive me."
Chapter 273: I don’t care, this is an assassination anyway
Islena expected Meng to surrender. Seeing her bowing obediently, Islena's pretty face was full of smiles, but she continued to say dissatisfiedly:
"Hmm? What's that expression on your face? Don't you know how to smile?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, miss."
A smirk appeared on Meng's face as he bowed once more.
Even though he clenched his fists and wanted to punch Isleina's annoying face, in order to stay, Meng had no choice but to endure it.
But Islena's teasing was clearly not going to end easily. After Meng bowed for the second time, Islena smiled and started to find fault again:
"Well, your smile is fine, but your posture is not quite right. What are you doing with that fist? Are you going to attack me?"
"Why, how could that be, my hands are itchy and I want to scratch them, hehe, hehe"
Meng spread his hands with a forced smile, then saluted for the third time in a very standard manner.
Unfortunately, it still doesn't work.
"Did you forget your name?"
"Miss"
"Your smile is so fake, do you usually smile like this?"
"Ahahaha, I, I have a toothache, miss."
"Make your voice sweeter. I'm not dead, why do you have to sound so dull?"
……
"Well, that's right. As a maid, how can you get a raise if you can't make your employer happy? Isn't that right?"
"Haha, haha, yes, young lady."
After a series of faults were pointed out, Meng was extremely angry and could only be angry for a while, and then responded to Isleina's words with the most perfect posture and smile.
In front of the evil nobles, Meng had to endure it no matter how angry she was.
Forbearance!
As long as I can kill that bastard devil, I will definitely see the day when this woman cries!
Looking down at my toes, Meng kept comforting myself in my heart.
Although she knew her chances of success were almost zero.
Looking at Meng, who was lowering her head and looking obedient after being teased by her, Islena patted Meng's shoulder with satisfaction and also made a big promise for her:
"Not bad, not bad. Perform well in the future. If you perform well, I will ask Aunt Anna to give you a raise."
I just don't know if what she meant by good performance is towards Yuan or in other aspects.
In order to stop being criticized, after listening to Islena's words, Meng did not leave with a gloomy face as she had thought in her mind, but thanked her with a sweet smile:
"Thank you, Miss."
Then he just watched Islena leave, never giving Islena any chance to cause trouble.
It wasn't until Islena disappeared from her sight that her little face turned completely dark.
Then he came to the door of Yuan's room with an angry face and waved his fist at the empty space in Yuan's room:
"You bastard devil, I will kill you sooner or later!"
She directly blamed Yuan for all the bullying that Islena had just inflicted on her.
After all, if it weren't for this bastard demon king, she wouldn't have been targeted by Isrena, right?
However, unfortunately, Yuan just happened to open the door and walked out of the room...
The scene was very embarrassing.
Even more unfortunate was that Meng's little fist hit Yuan's chest.
So Yuan raised his eyebrows, looked down at the little hand on his chest, and then said something with a half-smile that made Meng stiffen all over:
"You... have failed to assassinate me again, right? After all, you have caused me harm. My chest hurts so much now~"
"Ah? You...don't talk nonsense! I didn't use any force at all!"
"I don't care. Anyway, this is an act of assassination~"
“Waaaaaahh! Asshole! Let me go! You’re obviously making trouble! Stop it!”
"How could that be~ Look, the contract has taken effect, Elbow, follow me into the house~"
“No! Nooooooooooooooooo!!!”
So the poor girl was dragged into the room again.
……
After Meng floated back to the maid's apartment and submitted the task of waking up the guests, Rita had already completed the morning cleaning task that originally belonged to the two of them, and also returned here to prepare for breakfast.
Seeing Meng who had just returned, Rita was delighted at first, and immediately jumped and trotted towards Meng, not at all dissatisfied that Meng did not go with her to do the cleaning task.
"Dream, you're back. Let's...uh uh?"
Rita put down the broom and trotted to her good partner. Just as she was about to invite Meng to have breakfast together, she found that Meng looked absent-minded, and there was a hint of abnormal blush on her face. It was obviously not the look of someone coming back from slacking off.
"Meng, are you... okay? Were you bullied?"
Seeing Meng's appearance, Rita immediately showed a worried expression and hurried forward to hug her and comfort her.
At the same time, I also guessed in my heart the culprit that caused the dream to become like this:
"Were you bullied by Brother Yuan and the others? That shouldn't be the case. Brother Yuan is very gentle to girls, and those sisters are also very easy to talk to."
"Are you being bullied by the maid who led the dream? It's just that we went together to wake up the guests, there's no need, right?"
In Rita's little head, Yuan is the best big brother in the world and he would never bully Meng.
But all I can say is that people are different.
Meng did not answer Rita's question. She just shook her head slowly and pulled Rita towards the restaurant.
"Nothing, let's go eat first, and I'll tell you the results of my test."
"Oh, then let's go. I heard there's pudding for breakfast today. Eating some dessert will make you feel better!"
Seeing that Meng didn't want to say anything, Rita didn't ask any more questions. She remembered that she had heard from other maids that there was pudding for breakfast, so she immediately walked towards the restaurant with Meng with full anticipation.
Rita has never kept too many worries in her heart. Otherwise, she would have been crushed by worries since she grew up in an orphanage. How could she be so optimistic and cheerful as she is now?
This may be the reason why Meng cares about Rita.
