Hong Jiu's dangerous gaze shifted from Yutong's neck to his face, his tone cold.
"You have no control over me."
Yutong said with a stubborn temper: "I am the lady's slave. I can't control you if you are disrespectful to the lady. Did you do the same to your previous master?"
An Zhixian's figure flashed through Hong Jiu's mind, and he thought disdainfully: How can a child be worthy of comparing with my master?
"I've always been like this, how are you doing?"
Yutong glared at Hong Jiu angrily: "I couldn't control you before. I didn't say anything about you even when you first came here, but you still haven't changed at all after so many days. Since you want to follow the lady, you should Respect to the lady!"
Hong Jiu sneered and said, "You think I want to follow your lady?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Jinyan opened the door: "Since Miss Hong doesn't want to follow me, I can't force anyone to do anything."
Hong Jiu shut up and moved his head to the side. Lin Jinyan walked out of the door with a smile and made a gesture of invitation.
"Miss Hong, please come in. You are a life-saving gift to me. I won't force you if you don't want to live in the Lin Mansion. Yutong will serve you tea."
Hong Jiu knew he had made a mistake but was unwilling to apologize. Seeing Lin Jinyan's firm expression, he followed Lin Jinyan into the study. Yutong reluctantly went to make tea.
After entering the study, Lin Jinyan asked Hong Jiu to sit down. When Yutong finished making tea and came in to see Hong Jiu sitting there, she felt even more angry. She served Hong Jiu tea with a stinky face and glared at Hong Jiu several times.
Hong Jiu noticed Yutong's unkind gaze and felt childish.
Lin Jinyan picked up the tea cup and bowed to Hong Jiu: "I got out of danger with the help of Miss Hong at Fanyin Temple. I thought I could repay my kindness by getting along with each other every day, but I didn't know that the girl was not happy, and I can't repay kindness with hatred. Today I will use tea instead of wine to express my thanks. Thank you for saving my life."
Hong Jiu stood up and awkwardly wanted to say that he had made a mistake, but he couldn't say it. He awkwardly took the tea from Lin Jinyan.
Lin Jinyan changed her subject: "I wonder how Miss Hong calculated her remuneration for her work in the past? I can also settle the remuneration for these days for you."
Hong Jiu said smoothly: "In our business, we calculate the money according to the order, and collect the money according to the difficulty. We pay the silver tael first and then do the work... I used to be... an escort."
Hearing Hong Jiu suddenly change his voice, Lin Jinyan's eyes flashed and she didn't ask any more questions.
Lin Jinyan took out her key and opened the wooden box in the cabinet, took out five hundred taels and handed it to Hong Jiu.
"Since Miss Hong doesn't want to tell me, I will make up my own mind and ask her to accept it. I hope she will be happy and prosperous from now on. It's getting late today, so I'll stay in the house first. It won't be too late to leave tomorrow morning."
Hong Jiu originally thought that even if he left, he couldn't do it anymore and would resign, but unexpectedly, Lin Jinyan spoke first.
He awkwardly took the silver coins, cupped his fists and saluted Lin Jinyan, and then Hong Jiu opened the door and left the house.
Just before opening the door, she turned around and walked to Lin Jinyan.
"Didn't you ask me to inquire about the second room? The last errand must be done before leaving."
After speaking, he told Lin Jinyan everything about Mrs. Liu's scolding of Zhou Yuexue and the unpleasant quarrel with Lin Jinyun. After speaking, she opened the door and left the study, and went straight out of the house without going back to her own room.
When Bai Zhi came to report, Lin Jinyan said calmly: "Even if she is extremely skilled, she is neither loyal nor able to do things, so why force her to stay? Let her go."
Although it was a pity that Hong Jiu left, she was already very satisfied with what happened today.
The second room was completely separated from the house, and if they committed another crime in the future, they wouldn't be able to implicate the Lin family.
