Chapter 126 An Angel Sent from Heaven
"Okay, I'll do whatever Jin'er says!" Ruohan felt a surge of warmth in his heart when he heard Lu Jinyan say that she wanted to pick a date to get married to him.
"Young Master Ruohan, Miss, I've brought you some hangover soup!" Outside the door, Liu Xu gently knocked on the door with a bowl of hangover soup in her hand.
Ruohan got up and opened the door, and Liuxu bowed to him: "Young Master Ruohan, this servant has come to bring you some hangover soup!"
"Come in!" Ruohan stepped aside to let Liuxu into the room.
"Miss!" Liu Xu bowed to Lu Jinyan, then placed the tray on the table and picked up the hangover soup inside.
"Let me do it!" Ruohan took the hangover soup from Liuxu's hand, then sat down next to Lu Jinyan and carefully fed her the soup.
After she finished drinking, Ruohan wiped her mouth for her. Lu Jinyan was actually much better now. The system's hangover cure was quite effective, and she had basically recovered most of her health.
Since it was produced by the system, its effects were naturally extraordinary. However, she didn't want to waste Liu Xu and the others' good intentions, so she drank the hangover soup.
"Liu Xu, go fetch some water. I'm going to wash up. It's time to get up!" Lu Jinyan put the bowl back and instructed Liu Xu.
"Jin'er, aren't you going to rest a little longer?" Ruohan asked with some concern. She had drunk so much last night, she should rest more now.
"I'm fine, don't worry!" Lu Jinyan patted Ruohan's hand; she really was feeling much better now.
"Yes, Miss!" Liu Xu nodded and turned to go out to fetch water.
Since there were willow catkins in the combing cloth of Lu Jinyan, Ruohan couldn't help, so she left the room and waited outside the door.
After Lu Jinyan finished washing up, Liu Xu helped her out.
"Let's go have breakfast!" Lu Jinyan smiled and extended her hand to Ruohan. Ruohan was stunned for a moment, then tightly grasped Lu Jinyan's outstretched hand.
The two walked hand in hand toward the front hall, with Liu Xu following behind them with a smile on her face, keeping pace with Qingshan.
"Oh, right, Hanhan, here's today's pair of mandarin duck stones!" Lu Jinyan handed a pair of mandarin duck stones to Ruohan. She had looked at Ruohan's information today; she had gained some weight and her cultivation had improved a little, which made her very happy.
"Mandarin Duck Stone? This stone has a name?" Ruohan took the stone, somewhat surprised, as he had never known that the stone had a name.
"I just picked it randomly. I just thought this little stone was pretty, shaped like a heart, so I just gave it a name!" Lu Jinyan made up a story to fool Ruohan.
Ruohan didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he put the stone into his pocket. He liked the name "Mandarin Duck Stone," and the little stone seemed to be very helpful to him. In recent days, his cultivation level had actually increased by one level.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully used the Mandarin Duck Stone on Ruohan. Ruohan's favorability has increased by 1, and her current favorability is 86!"
"Ding! Ruohan's favorability +1, current favorability is 87!"
"Ding! Ruohan's favorability +1, current favorability is 88!"
"Ding! Ruohan's favorability +1, current favorability is 89!"
"Congratulations, host, on successfully raising Ruohan's favorability to 89%. Rewards include 3000 points, 300 Mandarin Duck Stones, 100 mid-tier cultivation pills, 3000 demon crystals, 3 mid-tier Moon Shadow Hairpins, 3 exquisite bracelets, 100 mermaid pearls, 3 rainbow feather robes, 3 purple brocade robes, 3 mid-tier Cloud Light Holy Armor, 3 Azure Sky Spirit Pearls, 3 Xihe Spirit Pearls, 3 mid-tier Ruyi Qiankun Fans, 3 Netherworld Ice Needles, and 10 low-tier storage bags. Please keep up the good work, host!"
Along the way, Lu Jinyan and Ruohan walked hand in hand. Not long after they started walking, the system's announcement came through in their minds, and Lu Jinyan's smile deepened.
Ruohan's favorability rating has reached 89%! She truly is an angel sent from heaven!
The two walked hand in hand into the front hall, where Chu Chu and the others were already waiting. Seeing them arrive hand in hand, everyone smiled knowingly. Ling Yuan frowned slightly at their tightly clasped hands, but only for a moment before regaining his composure.
In his view, Ruohan and Lu Jinyan's relationship was only a matter of time. He wasn't stupid; he could tell from the way the two looked at each other that he, a demon slave who had been bought, had no right to interfere in his master's affairs.
He always remembered his identity. All he needed to do was to curry favor with Lu Jinyan, eat and drink well, and live a good life. Chunniang had said that as long as they pleased their master, they could live a good life.
If they don't perform well, they'll be beaten and scolded at best, and rejected at worst, sold off or killed. They live by appearances, and their master is their life.
Only by pleasing their masters could they live a good life, avoid being beaten or starving, and avoid being sold back to the slave market.
In the demon slave market, they were much better off than other demon slaves, with better food, clothing, and supplies. However, no one knew how much they had sacrificed for this. Every day at dawn, they had to get up to learn how to please their masters, learn the rules, and learn about matters between men and women, how to serve male masters, and how to serve female masters. In the demon world, there were also people who preferred male lovers, so before they were sold, they did not know whether the master they would serve in the future was male or female.
Every move they make, every smile they make, undergoes rigorous training. There are monthly exams, and only those who pass are taken out to sell. They can only return to their rooms to rest at midnight. If they don't learn well, they will be beaten and punished.
If they lose their innocence and their appearance, and return to the demon slave market, their lives will be very difficult.
Lu Jinyan seems a bit strange. You could say she's rich, but her house is rented and the gifts she gives don't look very impressive. You could say she's poor, but she was able to spend 500,000 to buy him, and she has quite a few demon slaves at home.
Fortunately, she seems to have a good temper and shouldn't be too difficult to get along with. As long as he makes good use of what Chunniang taught him, he should be able to live out the rest of his life in peace.
He had once seen a high-ranking demon slave who had been sold be returned. It was a man who had been bought by a wealthy man. When he was returned, his face was disfigured and his body was broken. He had heard that the man who bought him was extremely perverted and had countless male concubines at home.
He would even exchange male concubines with others for his own pleasure. He was one of those men who swapped with another, ruining his body and disfiguring his appearance. To those men, they were nothing more than demon slaves who could be bought and sold at will. When they had their looks, they were still useful; when they lost their looks, they were just trash that could be discarded at will.
They don't care about money, nor do they lack it. So, if the demon slaves they buy are ruined, they are either killed or resold to the demon slave market to become the lowest-ranking demon slaves.
