The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

Shen Qiyin's eyes suddenly focused.

The people behind Huo Fanshuang were all women, but the voice she heard was clearly a man's!

But as far as the eye can see, there is no man!

what happened?

Are you hallucinating?

But soon, she heard the voice again.

"The target of the mission has an extremely strong will, otherwise she wouldn't have endured so many perverted punishments in her previous life. If the host wants to capture her, I'm afraid it will be a long and arduous journey."

Shen Qiyin: “?”

What is a "task object"? What is a "host"?

What about the "perverted punishment in the previous life"? Why does it sound like it's talking about one's own experience in the previous life?

She glanced at the two maids behind Huo Fanshuang one by one, and did not see anything wrong with them.

Thinking of something, she turned to look at Xianglan beside her, and saw that she was still looking "heroic and arrogant", with her nose pointed at Huo Fanshuang.

After noticing her gaze, he instantly let down his guard, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He blinked twice in confusion and asked her silently: What's wrong, miss?

Shen Qiyin shook his head slightly and looked away thoughtfully.

It seems that Xianglan can't hear this voice either.

That leaves only one possibility...

She raised her eyes and looked at Huo Fanshuang, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

is her?

"Miss Huo." Shen Qiyin suddenly spoke.

As she expected, Huo Fanshuang seemed to come back to his senses because of her voice, and replied a moment later: "...What, what happened?"

"nothing."

She just wanted to confirm her guess.

It seemed that Huo Fanshuang could hear the inexplicable male voice besides herself. Moreover, it seemed that she did not hear it suddenly like herself, but had always known of the other person's existence.

Is it a ghost?!

Thinking of this possibility, Miss Shen's eyes flickered slightly and she subconsciously tightened Xianglan's hand.

Xianglan was stunned.

Although she was puzzled, she still held Shen Qiyin's cold hand and hugged her arm.

Just at this time, Huo Wanqing came to look for Shen Qiyin, so they left first.

After taking a few steps, Shen Qiyin could even hear the other party saying, "Even if I give you a chance, you can't do anything about it."

"The system is reminding the host that if the mission target cannot be successfully conquered within the specified time, all the items and points accumulated from completing missions in various planes will be cleared."

"Host, please complete the strategy mission as soon as possible and restore the story line to its original plot."

……

That day, Shen Qiyin was unusually silent when he was treating Huo Chenzhou's injuries.

Although she didn't talk much in the past, when Huo Chenzhou went to take a medicinal bath, she would joke with Xianglan when she had nothing to do.

But today, she sat there without saying a word, as if she was thinking about some difficult problem.

Xianglan looked at her nose and her heart, thinking that her young lady's life was going smoothly now, what else could be worth worrying about? To be honest, it was nothing more than that Master Xiao hadn't come to see her for several days.

Is it because of this?

Her young lady "misses a man"?

Xianglan thought that as a little bug who followed the young lady around and ate and drank for free, it was her duty to help the young lady solve her problems.

So, after returning to the Shen family later, she found an opportunity to ask Shen Qiyin: "Miss, do you miss Master Xiao?"

"A little."

"Just a little?"

"Hmm..." Shen Qiyin thought about it carefully, then changed the subject and said, "Two o'clock."

"Hehe, I've seen it all, so don't be embarrassed." Xianglan had a look that said "don't try to hide it from me": "In the general's mansion during the day, you didn't say a word. Were you thinking about Lord Xiao?"

"It's really not."

There is nothing shameful about missing someone, and she has nothing to be embarrassed about admitting.

After staring at Xianglan for a few times, Shen Qiyin suddenly asked her, "When we met Huo Fanshuang in the general's mansion before, did you hear any strange noises?"

Xianglan was puzzled: "What's that sound?"

Shen Qiyin thought, she really didn't hear it.

She subconsciously replied "Nothing", but then she met Xianglan's resentful eyes. She thought for a moment and said, "I heard a man's voice."

"But all the people present were women."

"…Hmm, maybe I was hallucinating."

She couldn't tell Xianglan that she saw a ghost.

Um, that’s not right. I must have heard a ghost.

But Xianglan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Miss, can you hear other people's thoughts like what is written in the storybook?"

Shen Qiyin blinked, her focus seriously diverted: "What kind of storybook is so interesting?" How come she has never read it before?

"Oh, don't worry, it's from my hometown."

It's her hometown again.

Shen Qiyin remembered that Xianglan was from Fuzhou, and Fuzhou was not far from Shangjing. Why were the customs and habits so different from Shangjing?

There are various scripts with vivid plots.

There are also many rich swear words.

But she had treated the injured who came to Beijing from Fuzhou more than once, and none of them was like Xianglan.

"Miss?" Seeing that Shen Qiyin stopped talking and just stared at her, Xianglan couldn't help but wave her hand in front of her eyes: "Did you hear what I said?"

"……what?"

"In the General's Mansion, what did the voice you heard say?"

"It's something I don't understand."

Shen Qiyin always felt that what was in Xianglan’s little head seemed different from what all of them were thinking, and maybe she could understand it.

Who knew that just as she was thinking this, she heard Xianglan muttering to herself: "Words you don't understand? Is there a foreign language?!"

"That's it. I didn't even pass the Level 4 test, so I definitely won't understand it."

"They say that if you master math, physics and chemistry, you will be able to travel the world without fear, but practice is the only way to gain true knowledge. Mastering a foreign language is also crucial."

"I shouldn't have skipped classes when I was in college!"

Shen Qiyin: “…”

I originally wanted to ask Xianglan to "analyze" the words that I didn't understand, but she ended up saying a lot of things that I couldn't understand even more.

However, she could guess a little about her last sentence.

So Shen Qiyin said, "After the New Year, when the girls' school opens, I will send you there to study."

Xianglan was stunned: "Ah?!"

"It's obviously impossible to become a daughter of a noble family, but there might still be a chance to become a princess."

"But whether it's for yourself or to win the favor of your loved one, it's always right to make yourself excellent."

"Since you want it, just work hard to get it."

Although it was completely unrealistic for a maid to dream of becoming a princess in the eyes of the world, Shen Qiyin felt that if Xianglan really wanted to become a princess, then this identity would be like a carrot dangling in front of a donkey, hooking her to keep moving forward.

Looking at it from another angle, it’s also good.

Xianglan was stunned: "What the hell?"

"Me?" She pointed at herself uncertainly: "Become a princess?!"

"Ah."

"Are you sick and confused?" Xianglan said, and touched her forehead with the back of her hand.

Shen Qiyin laughed and pulled her hand down: "Didn't you say that yourself?"

"When did I ever say something so ignorant?"

"It was the last time you were sick." Shen Qiyin recalled, "You said that the others were either young ladies from noble families or princesses, but you were the only little maidservant. Don't you remember?"

Xianglan shook her head frantically.

No impression at all!

She has no talent and no looks, so why does she dare to marry the prince?

Besides, these funny girls just like to watch others dating, but they don’t want to do it themselves.

"I was just delirious due to the fever and talking nonsense. Why did you take it seriously, young lady?" Xianglan sneaked up to Shen Qiyin, hugged her arm, tilted her head and rested it on her shoulder.

She said: "I was not a promising child when I was young. Later, when I grew up, I met many people and experienced many things, and I became more and more able to accept my mediocrity."

"When I said I wanted to be a princess, it wasn't because I wanted to be a superior person. I simply thought that being a princess or a lady from a noble family would give me a good life."

"But even if I don't become a princess, I can still live a good life with my lady."

At this point, she rubbed Shen Qiyin's shoulders attentively and said, "My biggest wish now is that Miss can make a lot of money so that I can live a carefree life."

"Oh, of course. I'm not doing nothing. If you have a child in the future, I can be your son-in-law and take care of the child."

Shen Qiyin was puzzled: "What is Dehua?"

"Uh..." Xianglan thought for a moment and explained, "It refers to aunt or uncle. That's what we call it in my hometown."

"Fuzhou?"

"what?"

Shen Qiyin shook his head slightly.

Xianglan seemed to have a big secret just like her.

She didn't elaborate, and Xianglan didn't ask any further questions, because she estimated the time and thought that Lord Xiao should be here soon.

When she sent them back on the fourth day of the New Year, she specifically told him to go back and tell Lord Xiao to come over tonight.

Thinking of this, she smiled at Shen Qiyin and said, "Miss, when Lord Xiao comes later, you must tell him about your longing for me these days!"

"What if he doesn't want to listen?"

"How can it be!"

"Maybe not in the past, but recently..." She was a little unsure of Xiao Yan's thoughts.

Shen Qiyin thought that Xianglan's brain was different from that of ordinary people, and maybe talking to her might help, so he told her his thoughts.

After hearing this, Xianglan touched her chin with an unfathomable look on her face and asked her, "So you guess that Lord Xiao is fed up with you? Or did you do something on New Year's Eve that made him unhappy?"

Shen Qiyin nodded: "So I was thinking, if it is really the latter case, what should I do to comfort him?"

"No, no, your idea is wrong." Xianglan corrected her and said, "Men don't need to be coaxed, 'forced love' is enough."

After listening to Xianglan's explanation of the three words, Shen Qiyin showed deep doubt.

Will this work?

She originally had no intention of listening to Xianglan, but when Xiao Yan came, she saw him sitting upright without even looking at her, and she couldn't help but think, "Since it has come to this, I might as well give it a try."

So without saying a word, she went over and kissed Xiao Yan.

A kiss as light as a dragonfly touching the water was imprinted right on his lips.

But in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan pushed her away.

Although he said "push", his hands on her shoulders became tighter and tighter, with no intention of letting go.

Being rejected by him and being "forced to love" by him, Shen Qiyin thought it was all over, there was no hope at all.

Then she heard Xiao Yan's suppressed and low voice slowly ringing in her ears: "Yin Yin, don't provoke me..." It sounded like a warning, and also like a beg.

Shen Qiyin was stunned and said, "I, I was just trying to coax you."

"Cheer me?"

"Aren't you angry?"

Xiao Yan's tone became more and more puzzled: "Who said that?"

"My guess."

“……”And he seems quite righteous.

Xiao Yan laughed: "I guessed wrong."

"Then why don't you come to see me? Either because I did something to make you unhappy, or because you're bored with me?" He was not busy, and she really couldn't think of any other reason.

Xiao Yan looked at her in silence for a while with dark eyes, then asked, "Are you sure you want to know?"

quiet--

When he asked this, she suddenly felt a little afraid to know.

I always feel that if I really nod, I will regret it.

Xiao Yan seemed to sigh, then held her in his arms, and said in a cold voice, "I didn't come to see you because I was avoiding you. I was afraid that once we met, you would ask to cancel the engagement."

Shen Qiyin raised her head from his arms with difficulty and asked in confusion: "Why should I cancel the engagement?"

"I think too much."

Xiao Yan's tone revealed a sense of finality.

On New Year's Eve, he was too absorbed in his thoughts and acted rudely towards her. He thought she would be mad at him and dislike him, so he spent the past few days at home racking his brains to think of ways to redeem the relationship, and didn't dare to come to her without a foolproof plan.

But with one kiss from her, he knew he was wrong.

Although Shen Qiyin didn't know what he was thinking exactly, it was good enough to get it out for now. She was about to snuggle back into his arms again, but Xiao Yan grabbed her hand and stopped her from hugging him.

She said "oh" in her heart, thinking, "You won't let me touch you anymore?"

Meeting her slightly surprised gaze, Xiao Yan's eyes wandered, and he explained unnaturally: "...If you take the initiative, I won't be able to control myself."

Shen Qiyin didn't understand: "What can't be controlled?"

Xiao Yan did not answer.

He didn't even dare to look at her anymore.

But how could Miss Shen understand? She leaned over and looked at the expression on his face curiously: "Hmm?" Unable to control her blushing?

"Xiao Han, um..."

The character "玉" was swallowed up.

The moment her lips were bitten, Shen Qiyin finally understood what Xiao Yan meant by "control".

When she woke up early on the first day of the new year and found that her lips were broken, she only remembered that Xiao Yan pressed her down and kissed her, but thanks to the alcohol, she had forgotten the feeling at that time.

Now I remember it all.

Also remembered was the question she forgot to ask at that time.

Shen Qiyin took great effort to barely create some space between the two of them. She reached out to cover Xiao Yan's lips and buried her head in his arms to calm her rapid breathing and heartbeat.

Before getting down to business, she did not forget to plead for herself: "I didn't provoke you..."

Xiao Yan wanted to speak, but she covered his mouth tightly and refused to let go no matter what.

"Didn't I take off your mask on New Year's Eve? I remember that you look a lot like the Imperial Concubine." Shen Qiyin raised her eyes and stared into his dark eyes, and said word by word: "Between you..."

"What is the relationship?"
