"Then... why doesn't the young master come to see me..."
Eve couldn't help her doubts and asked another silly question.
Qiu Shaozhe: "..."
"Forget it," Eve was afraid of hearing the frightened answer and quickly replied, "The young master must have been imprisoned too, so he can't come to me, right?"
"..."
"Did the young master suffer a lot?"
"Let's eat first, and then we'll talk after you finish." Qiu Shaozhe continued to put vegetables into her bowl.
It's strange that Eve used to forget everything when she saw food, but now that she's so hungry, she can't eat much.
She ate without any mood, not knowing how to taste the food, and her mind was filled with panic and heartache.
No one told her that this was love.
"Master Shaozhe, just tell me, I want to know..."
"Know what?"
Eve said uneasily: "Did the 13th elder also punish the young master?"
Qiu Shaozhe's eyes turned deep, with a hint of anger flashing through him: "Do you care about him that much?"
"I just... don't want him to be implicated..."
"Implicated?" Qiu Shaozhe said in a rare unkind tone, "If it weren't for him, would you end up in this situation? He knows the consequences of doing all these things very well, and he understands the rules of the 13th family better than anyone else. If I were him, the girl I love
, I will definitely protect her and never let her fall into such a dangerous situation."
Eve clenched her chopsticks tightly... She didn't know why she understood the voice of Master Shaozhe's words.
Does that mean that the young master did these things to her because he didn't love her?
"For his own selfish desires and temporary pleasure, he puts the safety of you and your family at risk. Is this love?"
"..."
"And, you don't have to worry, he wasn't punished at all, he's fine."
"Really?" Eve was both disappointed and happy.
Fortunately, the young master was in no danger and was not tortured like her... What was disappointing was that the young master was not restricted in his freedom. Does that mean he didn't want to see her at all?
Qiu Shaozhe heard the emotion in her tone, turned his face away, and looked at the torture device with spider webs hanging on the wall: "Not only was he not punished, he also lived a happy life."
"What's the meaning……"
"You will know when you see him in court." Qiu Shaozhe paused, "Now you eat first. I didn't want to say more and affect your mood. Don't even eat."
But in fact, Eve couldn't eat anymore.
"Young master is really fine, right?" Eve asked in confusion.
As long as she confirmed this, she would not dare to dream about anything.
She is just a servant, just a servant. No matter whether she lives or dies in this disaster, she will completely withdraw from the young master's life.
"Well," Qiu Shaozhe promised, "he is the heir of 13 Oaks, the elders will not do anything to him. Besides, he just played with a woman..."
How could she forget that it is said in the rules of 13 Oak that if the servant is liked by the master, the servant will be executed and the whole family will be implicated.
On the other hand, if a servant falls in love with his master and becomes pregnant with his master's child, thus staining his bloodline, the servant will still be executed and the whole family will be implicated.
The former punishes the master by taking away his love; the latter punishes the servant by taking away her name.
In fact, this rule is not unequal from the beginning. No matter what, the servant will die!
