Chapter 876
But with that being said, she had nothing to hide.
So, nod your head.
Whispering, “He doesn’t know what I’m thinking yet, I didn’t talk to him about it.”
After a pause, he looked at Bella Qiao with some anticipation and asked softly, “Sister Bella Qiaoao, what do you think a girl needs to do to please the boy she likes?”
She really didn’t know, she’d never been in love before, and for the first time in her life, she liked a man, and all she could feel was him in her eyes and heart.
I hate to see him every day, but I’m afraid that if I keep seeing him, they’ll get annoyed with me.
So she had to struggle to find excuses and create coincidences with each other every time.
But the more she did this, the more unsettled she felt, always feeling that this relationship was just a one-man show all by itself from start to finish.
He didn’t know anything, not even that he liked him, and it was even less likely that he would end up with her.
But if she had to work up the courage to confess, she didn’t dare.
At this time, Moon’s feelings were not to mention how conflicted she was.
But she’s been in this place for a long time, say, but not many people she can really trust.
The servants also have their own cliques among themselves, though everyone usually seems to be close and on good terms.
But she knew in her heart that this friendship was precarious, even very fragile.
As long as she confided in one of them today about this unknown heartbreak of hers, then tomorrow, the entire castle would all know that she, the little maid, had a crush on one of Gu Si Qian’s personal guards.
Let’s not talk about what Su Cheng would think by then, but she herself would be ashamed to see it.
So, after such a long crush, she was so raw that she actually suppressed her feelings and didn’t mention it to anyone.
Where could Bella Qiao look at her and not know what she was thinking?
She mused a little before she said in a subtle, comforting voice, “In fact, in my opinion, if two people truly love each other, they don’t need to deliberately try to please each other.”
“For true love, no matter what you do, he will be pleased, and your every joy, anger, smile and anger will be the most cherished thing in his eyes.”
“Of course, the two of you are in different situations now, and he may not know what you’re thinking, or perhaps, like you, he’s full of affection for you, but is too afraid to speak up.”
“Even if the worst outcome is that he just treats you like a hometown boy, or a close little sister, and hasn’t yet had any thoughts of you in that way.”
“But either way, keep in mind that you can give and please him, but only if you make yourself also at the same time happy and keep yourself safe.”
“Once you realize something is wrong, pull out immediately, and don’t drag your feet and let them hold your soft threat, that way you’ll be at a disadvantage.”
Moon looked at her and nodded in seeming understanding.
Only half a dozen times did he say, “Sister Bella Qiaoao, I seem to understand some of what you’re saying, don’t worry, I know what to do.”
Bella Qiao smiled and patted her on the shoulder, “Our Xiao Yue is also twenty, right?”
Moon nodded, “Well, yeah.”
“Dare to like it, and if it does come to pass, I’ll send you a generous dowry.”
At the mention of this, Moon’s face instantly turned red again.
Some of the angry ones pushed her and said, “What are you talking about, Jojo.”
Bella Qiao laughed out loud.
After teasing Moon, Georgie was in a good mood and read a bit after she went back to her room until it was too late to sleep.
The next day, she secretly asked Ober to investigate that Su Sung.
The results of the investigation came back quickly though, that Su Cheng’s profile was clean, he was a good person, and his reputation among the bodyguard team was considered good.
Previously, a new captain had to be elected out because of an incident with the last bodyguard captain.
Many others had elected him, and if he hadn’t later been too junior and too young to be competent, he would have been Qin Yue’s direct subordinate by now.
Anyway, no matter how you look at it, the man is trustworthy.
Bella Qiao saw the situation, and that’s when she let go.
In the evening, she ate her dinner and lounged on one of the cool chairs on the balcony to cool off.
At this time of year, it’s August, summer isn’t quite over, and it’s the hottest time of the year.
It was fine to stay at home during the day, but at night I felt a bit bored and too lazy to go out more, so I simply moved my chair on the balcony to watch the stars.
She lay her head down, only to feel a faint ache in her head.
There is a feeling of dizziness and wanting to vomit.
So, get someone to call Moon.
Xiao Yue came in, and as soon as she saw her face, she said, “It’s been so hot these past two days, is it heat stroke?”
Bella Qiao froze and frowned, “Not so much, I didn’t go out during the day, I stayed in my room with the air conditioner blowing.”
Moon was a little worried at the sight of it, “Then why don’t I go call the doctor over?”
There’s a resident doctor at the castle anyway.
Georgie hesitated, finally shaking her head.
“Forget it, don’t go.”
It was an eventful time for her, and it wasn’t the first time she’d been like this for a while, but the last time the doctor had come to review her leg injury, she’d asked the others about it, and they hadn’t found anything wrong after examining her.
She felt that the estimate was really just the discomfort caused by the heat and being bored here every day.
So, she didn’t want to make a fuss, Gu Siqian was still hurt, and if she knew she had called a doctor over, she might think something was wrong with her again.
Run over to her later, and it’s all over again plus worry.
Bella Qiao didn’t want people to worry about her, and it wasn’t a big deal anyway, so she simply didn’t make a big deal of it.
Xiao Yue looked at her like this, worrying even more.
Thinking about it, I said, “Why don’t I get the oils and massage you again?See if it gets better.”
When she said that, Bella Qiao suddenly remembered the feeling of being all tingly after the last time she had massaged him, and nodded immediately.
“Well, that’s it, you go ahead.”
Moon nodded and turned around in a hurry to get her things.
She got her things back quickly, and without moving her place, Georgie flattened the recliner and let her massage it up on the balcony this way.
I have to say that this craft of Moon’s was one that was really dear to her heart.
Those little hands, as if they had been enlightened by the gods, could simply be called ingenious.
Pressed on the scalp, the strength of the light and the urgency of each and every hold particularly accurate, pressed only to make people faint valley owes sleep.
Bella Qiao couldn’t help but smile and tease, “It’s finished, what will I do if I can’t do without your handiwork from now on?”
Xiao Yue smiled, “Then I’ll follow you for the rest of my life, as long as you don’t dislike me.”
Chapter 877
Bella Qiao couldn’t help but laugh softly.
But on second thought, I shook my head.
“That’s no good, you still have to have your own life, you’re just a job here, how can you lose your whole life for a job?”
Her words silenced Moon.
In the night, the girl’s face is calm and cool, and her eyebrows are so bland that she seems to care nothing about it, but it’s so different from her usual lively and youthful appearance.
Bella Qiao was lying down and still had her eyes closed, so she didn’t notice anything unusual in her appearance.
She still kept saying, “I still want you to have your own happiness, find someone who likes you and you like, get married in peace, have children, and then be ordinary and happy for the rest of your life, and that’s the happiest thing a person can do in life.”
Xiao Yue looked at her and suddenly asked, “Is it really happy to live an ordinary life?”
Kitty Qiao raised her eyebrows, opened one eye slightly, and said, “Of course.”
Moon quirked her lips and didn’t say anything.
Georgie closed her eyes as she continued to enjoy her massage and said, “Moon, you’ve never experienced the extraordinary, so you don’t know the greatness and rarity of the ordinary.”
“People like us, who live on the edge of a knife every day, who don’t know if they’ll be around tomorrow after today, may never have the chance to enjoy the happiness you could have.”
“Every night, even with the heavy security outside, when you close your eyes, your mind is still always on alert, afraid that if you’re not paying attention, someone will jump you and wipe your throat.”
“People na, in the end they are all afraid of death, even after all these years, I can say I didn’t look down on life and death, if I could live, who wants to die early?”
“But it’s because we don’t want to die, because we’re afraid to die, that people like us live in fear every day and every night.”
“And once fear takes over most of your life, there’s not much of that wealth, that status, that you have that can bring you happiness.”
“Xiao Yue, I really want you to be happy, not like me, who had a chance but missed it in life and didn’t even know where to go in the end.”
She said, and her voice trailed off.
Moon still continued to keep pressing for her, with gentle force, and the essential oil at her fingertips emitted a faint, good-smelling fragrance, as if coming from a faraway place, relaxing the nerves and making one just want to be completely intoxicated.
She dropped her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her.
The woman seemed to be asleep, eyes closed, lying there.
Removed from all her defenses, she looked so thin, just like a normal girl, just like a gentle, harmless angel.
Angel….
She mumbled the word in her mind, suddenly feeling ironic.
She remembered a time long ago when she had brought her summer sour plum soup in the afternoon when Georgie was at her thirstiest, without being told to do so, and she was just so happy to pinch her face and say that she was really her little angel’s.
But is there an angel like her?
For some reason, her eyes suddenly reddened with the colour of misery and pain.
Kitty Jo woke up half an hour later.
When I woke up, the sky was full of stars, just above my head, surrounded by a gentle lake breeze, blowing on my face and body, relaxing and cool.
She was covered with a thin blanket at some point, and when she turned around, she noticed that Moon was gone.
She picked up the phone.
, looking at the time, it had been over an hour since I was lying here.
The heart was slightly furrowed and the eyebrows furrowed lightly.
What’s going on with yourself?
You were awake just a moment ago, why did you fall asleep so quickly?
Georgie knitted her brows and sat up.
Just at this time, Xiao Yue also just came out from inside, saw her check, surprised “ah” sound, quickly walked over.
“Jojo, are you awake?”
Georgie nodded and stood up, grabbing her hair with her hands as she asked, “Why did I fall asleep again?”
Moon took the blanket from her hands and smiled as she gathered her things, “I guess I’m really tired, I also just took those massage things in, I was expecting to come out soon, but I didn’t think you’d wake up.”
Bella Qiao did not speak.
After watching Moon put everything away, this followed her into the house.
By this time, it was late.
Moon put the bath water on for her, she took her clothes and walked in, looking at the bathtub that had some flower petals in it, she suddenly turned around and asked, “Moon, what was the essential oil you just used for my massage?”
Xiao Yue was stunned, looked up at her and smiled, “Hundred flowers oil ah, or the bottle that I refined myself.”
“Can you bring it to me?”
Bella Qiao asked, and after a pause, she explained, “I feel like it’s quite useful, I’ll take it to Gu Si Qian to try it out some day, he’s always had trouble sleeping at night since his injury.”
Moon’s face didn’t look unusual, still smiling, “Yes, I’ll go get it.”
Georgie nodded before she turned and walked into the bathroom.
When she came out of the shower, Moon had already brought her things over.
She handed her a bottle of Hundred Flowers Oil and said, “This is a new bottle, it hasn’t been opened yet, take it and give it a try to Gu Shao.”
Saying that, he seemed a little embarrassed and smiled, “But this stuff is all refined by me, the old method I learned from my family in the countryside, and the extraction may not be very pure, I just don’t know if Young Master will dislike it.”
Bella Qiao barely smiled, “No, he wouldn’t dare dislike it and I’m still reluctant to give it to him to use.”
Moon smiled, and that’s when he said, “That’s good.”
Bella Qiao nodded, and seeing that it was getting late, she didn’t let her work here anymore, leaving her to rest on her own, while she also laid down on the bed, ready to rest.
After Moon left, she lay quietly on her bed by herself.
Since there was a beautiful moon and stars tonight, she left the window open.
The late night lake breeze blew in, adding to the coolness, and some stars could be seen faintly from the bed.
Georgie turned on the desk lamp and took the bottle of essential oil out again, looking at it carefully in the light.
The only thing that was there was indeed a bottle of ordinary essential oil, and from the looks of it, at least, it wasn’t visible.
She quirked her eyebrows slightly.
Two massages, and both times I fell asleep unprepared.
Was it really a coincidence, just because she was too tired or too comfortable?
Georgie didn’t know either.
But at this time, she had to be more than a little bit thoughtful, so right now, she pulled out her phone and sent a text message over to Gu Siqian.
Kusken was upstairs in his bedroom.
Chapter 878
Soon after receiving the text message, I ordered someone over.
Bella Qiao didn’t have to wait long for Qin Yue to come over.
He knocked softly on the door outside and Georgie walked over, opened it, saw it was him, and handed out the bottle of essential oil straight away.
Perhaps because he knew she was in her pajamas and in a private setting like her room, Qin Yue kept his head down and didn’t look up at her much.
After taking the item over, I heard Bella Qiao instruct in a low voice, “Go check its ingredients and tell me immediately after analyzing the results.”
Qin Yue nodded and responded with a low “yes”, then, he turned and left.
That’s when Georgie closed the door.
Things were sent out and she felt a little more at ease.
When I lay down on the bed again, I only felt a little sleepiness coming on, so I fell asleep as well.
The next day.
At breakfast time, she and Gu Si Qian were still the only ones in the dining room.
Both of them were in the habit of eating and sleeping without talking, so no one was talking at the table.
It wasn’t until the meal was over that Georgie said, “There’s something I’d like to talk to you about.”
Gu Si Qian looked at her, slowly put down the tea in his hand, and said in a deep voice, “Go to the study.”
So she got up, pushed his wheelchair, and made her way to the study.
When she entered the study, Bella Qiao turned and closed the door, and went to sit down by the sofa, which is why she said, “You were injured before, and were too busy with too many things for a while, so there was something I never got to tell you.”
Kusken looked at her and asked, “What is it?”
Bella Qiao took out the map he had drawn earlier and said, “This map, which is the same pattern you had on the piece of jade earlier, Xiao Yue said she had seen it before.”
Gu Si Qian was stunned.
Some surprise.
In fact, not only him, but even Bella Qiao was surprised when she first heard about it.
In the end, though, the man was quick to react, but for a few moments, his appearance returned to normal.
He asked quietly, “What’s going on?”
Bella Qiao shook her head, “I don’t know the details, but didn’t you give me a file to read on the day you left for the neighboring city?I was looking at it when Moon happened to come in and I saw the picture on the file.”
“According to her, she just thought that the pattern on the jade on that picture looked familiar to her, like she had seen it somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember exactly where.”
“I had my doubts at the time that she wasn’t mistaken, but then, when we found out that the spy who was among the guards had the map on him as well, I knew that this wasn’t the only place that had it.”
“There should be more than one person who has seen it, so it’s not necessarily true if Moon really has seen it somewhere by mistake.”
Gu Si Qian’s eyebrows were deeply knitted.
He was silent, not speaking, and Jackie knew that he was thinking about the possibility of this.
It took a long moment before he heard him say, “So, all this time, she hasn’t remembered?”
Kitty Jo shook her head.
Kusken went silent again.
Bella Qiao said in a deep voice, “What I mean is… should we send someone to her hometown to check it out?I’ve heard she came here to work directly from an acquaintance after graduating from school in her hometown, she’s young and hasn’t been to many places, so maybe check it all out and find out what you can.”
Gu Si Qian intoned, “That’s fine, but…”
He paused, and Georgie raised an eyebrow, speculating.
“Afraid of spooking a snake?”
Kuskan nodded.
He thought about it before saying, “Do you have a feeling?No matter what we do, what we find, how we look into it, it seems like everything is under the other side’s control, and at the end of the day, we find out that after going around in circles, all these clues were just a blindfold set up by the other side, and we still didn’t actually find out anything.”
“I’m a little worried that this time it’s going to be the same as the last couple of times, where you’re looking at a lead, but in reality, it’s the same nothing and you’re being walked around instead.”
Bella Qiao also frowned at the news.
She said quietly, “What you say is possible.”
After all, after all this time, they had more or less figured out the other party’s habits.
Gu Si Qian looked at her, and only after a while did he hear her say, “Then let’s not look into it yet, I can trust Xiao Yue’s character for the time being, let’s wait a little longer and see if she can remember anything, maybe when she does, we won’t have to look into it.”
Kuskan nodded.
Just then, there was a knock on the study door from outside.
Gu Siqian shouted to enter, the door was pushed open and Qin Yue walked in.
However, when he saw Gu Siqian, he just said hello, and then, he actually went straight to Bella Qiao.
“Miss Jo, here’s what you asked me to look up last night, and it came back.”
Finished, respectfully handing her a copy of the report.
Bella Qiao took it and read it carefully.
Gu Siqian looked at this scene and suddenly had a wonderful feeling.
It’s like, in this castle, it’s like a big family, and he’s the head of the family, and Jocie, she’s the mistress of the family.
The ones that used to take orders from him and need to be asked about everything, some of them have now been handed over to her.
And those who were once loyal to his heart and soul now serve not only him, but the mistress of the house as well.
Husband and wife as one, breaking gold together?
He smiled a little at the thought.
Georgie didn’t know what he was thinking.
She was still concentrating on that report.
I saw that the report had already spelled out all the ingredients of that bottle of blossom oil, the effects.
Looking around, it didn’t look like anything was wrong.
As Moon had said before, these were some of the flowers that had a calming effect, refined and then mixed together in different proportions.
Her brow was knitted.
Could it be…that you were really thinking too much before?
Gu Si Qian only received a text message from her last night asking him to send Qin Yue over, but in reality, he still didn’t know what it was about.
So at this point, curious to see the report in her hand, she asked, “What is this?”
Bella Qiao looked up and said, “Oh”, “It’s nothing, it’s just a normal report.”
Afterwards, there was no intention of letting him read the report, so he just put it away.
Immediately afterwards, she took out the bottle of blossom oil that hadn’t been used up from doing the check and handed it to him.
“Here, a gift for you.”
Gu Siqian was stunned, a flash of surprise blossoming in his eyes, and reached out to pick it up.
“What is it?”
Bella Qiao smiled slightly, “The essential oil, for massage, can calm the mind and help sleep, it’s very good, try it.”
