Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I’ll be heading to Yang Yong’s house again tonight to see if his spirit has been brought away by the grim reapers yet. If he has, I’ll make another trip to the netherworld. Things would be easier if he hasn’t. By the way, do get some people to reconstruct a well.”

“Actually, Young Sir would like you guys to move into Wei Ni Estate.”

Without hesitation, An Xiaoning refused, “Nah, I still haven’t married him again at the end of the day. I’ll just continue living here. Father and Mother aren’t going to get used to living in Wei Ni Estate either. I’ll be extra cautious from now on, and I’ll also install a poison detector in the faucet, so as to prevent history from repeating itself.”

“Alright, Young Madam, since you’ve said that, just leave the rest to me. I’ll handle everything at home.”

Fan Shixin headed back to Wei Ni Estate while An Xiaoning proceeded to the hospital.

Their conditions seemed to have improved, and the doctors had already permitted them to begin eating solid food.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after An Xiaoning informed them of the progress.

“These people really resorted to extreme measures. No one would’ve expected to be poisoned using such a method. Sometimes, others try to harm you even when you leave them alone. It’s just like those vicious annihilators in the past who tried to go on a massacre and poison everyone to death in order to wipe out the population. How wicked. Xiaoning, fortunately... you’re alright. Otherwise, the mastermind would definitely be thrilled to see that his or her plan has succeeded.”

An Xiaoning leaned against her and said to No. 8, “Did you tell Mo Li about this?”

“No, I don’t plan to inform her about this.”

An Xiaoning could tell what he was thinking right away. “I know you’re afraid of worrying her, but, No. 8, I think it’s better that you tell her. I want her to understand that your safety won’t be guaranteed when you’re working for me.”

“I know I’ll cave in and tell her one day, but...” After some consideration, he continued, “I’ll listen to you. I won’t blame her if she decides to leave me because of this.”

An Xiaoning looked at him and said, “I’ll let you live peacefully with Mo Li and you may stop working for me. How does that sound?”

Shock was written all over No. 8’s face. They all knew that she had never mentioned such an offer before, although she had given them the freedom to get married and bear children. Since she had bought their indentures with money, they would always belong to her for the rest of their lives.

Yet, she actually said something like that...

Reminded of the incident involving Sister Zhang, No. 8 refused, “I won’t leave you, Sis. You’ve helped me so much and you’re my greatest benefactor. Since you’ve already bought me, I’ll always be your slave until the day I die.”

An Xiaoning was both touched and miserable.

She was touched because of his loyalty and gratitude toward her for her sincere kindness toward him.

People always say that you should never try and put humanity to the test because disappointment is inevitable.

However, she was not trying to test him and instead had meant every word she said. She believed that they had the right to pursue a life of happiness and peace, and she would grant them the freedom to do so if they wanted.

She gave them the freedom of choice.

She sat up straight and looked at everyone else in the room.

“I’m giving you the freedom to choose if you want to get married and settle down or to continue working with me. I’ll only be giving you the chance to make a choice once. If you’ve decided to settle down peacefully, you shall leave my side forever and never work for me again. If you choose to stay behind, you’ll never get the choice to go back on your word again. I hope I’ve made myself clear. I’m allowing you the option to choose the life you want, simply because I don’t want you to think that you can work for me as and when you pleased. Do you understand?”

No. 8 and No. 5 answered with a nod, “Yes.”

“No. 8, do discuss this carefully with Mo Li and seek her opinion. I’m not an unreasonable or difficult person. It’s not too late to make your choice now if you want to live a safe and peaceful life.”

No. 8 kept a straight face and insisted, “There’s no need for that, Sis. I have the right to make a decision on my own. You were the one who gave me a new lease on life and a chance to live without discrimination again. I don’t want to leave you guys.”

“I still think you should discuss this with Mo Li. Women all enjoy security and would yearn to live a life of peace and happiness with their other halves every day. No one would want their other half to constantly be in danger and at risk of losing their life unexpectedly.”

Shi Qingzhou said in agreement, “Yeah, No. 8, since Xiaoning has already allowed you the freedom of choice, you should really talk to Ms. Mo about this. It won’t be too late to give Xiaoning a firm answer after you’ve considered carefully.”

After some thought, No. 8 nodded, although he already had an answer in his head.

An Xiaoning proceeded to repeat her words to the other bodyguards in the ward next door.

They grew even more loyal toward An Xiaoning after hearing her words.

“We agree with No. 8. Regardless of whether we get married or not, we’ll still continue to work for you.”

“I’ll give you another chance to change your mind after you guys get married. You never know what will happen in the future. I won’t hold it against you even if you choose to leave.”

“Sis, you’re too kind to us. We’ve had our pride and dignity robbed away from us ever since we were young. We don’t even know who our parents are and we’re just orphans. Now that we’ve already gotten to this age, we’ve also stopped hoping to experience the warmth of having a family. But you were the one who gave us the opportunity to feel what it’s like to have a family. There’s only seven of us left now. I’ve already discussed this with my brothers. We must watch the person who murdered the seven of them die before our very own eyes,” No. 11 said with tears in his eyes.

An Xiaoning could not help but feel extremely moved to hear his words.

....

Twenty-four hours after they were hospitalized, they were all discharged and brought home at night.

By the time they arrived home, Fan Shixin was already there with some construction workers.

A new well had already been constructed. Fan Shixin instructed, “This well took an entire day to construct and it’s made of cement. There’s a detector near the cement and we’ll be alarmed whenever someone touches the cement. The well is thirty meters deep, and you guys may just arrange for regular maintenance of the detector. There are also poison detectors in every water pipe. Young Sir has mentioned that we would be providing all the ingredients and food supply you’ll need, be it vegetables, meat, milk, eggs, or other snacks. That way, we can at least ensure that the food is safe to consume. We’ll get to put our minds at ease too.”

“Alright.”

“I’ve already brought all the necessary items and supplies over. From now on, just hand me a list of all the items you need and we’ll prepare them.” Reminded of Jin Qingyan’s instruction, Fan Shixin added, “Young Madam, Young Sir wants you to go over later, he has something to tell you.”

“Wait for me in the car, I’ll give them some instructions.”

Just as Fan Shixin was about to leave, No. 5 yelled to stop him in his tracks. “Chief... where are their corpses?”

“We’ve already cremated them and placed all their ashes together in the same coffin, according to Young Madam’s requests. We’re arranging for them to be buried tomorrow in the graveyard in Wei Ni Estate.”

“We must send them off tomorrow, then,” No. 5 said in a tone of melancholy.
