Chapter 19: Administering Eye Drops
Chen Ma’s eyes were filled with terror, looking at Nan Yuanman as if she were a monster.
Meng Qinian felt relieved. He clicked his tongue and looked at Nan Yuanman with concern: “It seems the Jiang family doesn’t value you. Why don’t you come to my house instead.”
“No.” Nan Yuanman twisted her little body, letting him put her down on the ground. She straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes: “This is my mom’s house. My mom is also the master here. There’s no reason for me to leave because of a servant.”
What’s more, she had come with a task!
Nan Yuanman strode casually with small steps toward the living room. After just two steps, she turned back, took two talismans from her shoulder bag, and handed them to him: “Two safety talismans, two thousand yuan each, still cash.”
“Keep them close to your body. They can save your life.”
Meng Qinian carefully put away the safety talismans: “Okay, I’ll bring the money to you tomorrow.”
Nan Yuanman: “Mm-hmm, we’ll see each other again soon. Bye-bye.”
Meng Qinian smiled helplessly: “Bye-bye.”
Watching Nan Yuanman’s figure disappear, Meng Qinian coldly glanced at the immobile Chen Ma before turning around to leave.
As soon as Nan Yuanman stepped into the villa, she faintly sensed a very faint malevolent qi floating from the east side.
She raised her eyebrows slightly and carefully examined the feng shui layout of the Jiang family villa.
Visually, the terrain was flat, lower in front and higher in back, facing south from north, with a well-arranged layout.
However, in the originally lower-in-front higher-in-back terrain, a small fountain had been built near the main house in the front, and the water flow of the small fountain was not facing the residential area but toward the doorway.
If it faced the residential area, the water flow would symbolize rolling wealth coming in, but facing outward meant money flowing out lavishly.
Not only that…
Nan Yuanman tilted her head, looking at the recessed spot on the front wall where green plants were placed. She didn’t know which fool had made a hole in the main house.
When the wind hit the recess, it filled it with qi, forming returning wind malevolent qi, causing the people in the main house to suffer from neurasthenia and unstable emotions.
No wonder the Jiang family members were all so aggressive.
This perfectly good feng shui layout had been ruined like this.
A hint of pity appeared on Nan Yuanman’s small face, but it had nothing to do with her anyway. She wouldn’t be staying long.
Nan Yuanman hummed a tuneless nursery rhyme and skipped into the living room.
When Nan Yuanman appeared in the villa living room, Butler Li, who was anxiously calling the police to inquire about progress, let out a sharp cry. He hurried over and picked her up: “Oh! My little miss! Where did you run off to! I was so worried searching for you!”
Nan Yuanman glanced at Butler Li’s facial physiognomy and obediently admitted her mistake: “Sorry, I worried Grandpa Li.”
She pouted, her eyes suddenly turning red: “I didn’t want to run around, but a grandma told me that I bullied Jiang Xinxin and wanted to send me to an orphanage. I don’t want to be sent away. I was scared, so that’s why…”
“Sorry…”
Seeing such a pretty and cute little girl looking so aggrieved, Butler Li’s heart instantly softened, and he couldn’t bear to scold her.
Her words made his heart sink slightly. He asked her gently: “Does the little miss remember who said that?”
Nan Yuanman’s eyes were red-rimmed, her small face scrunched up as she tried hard to recall: “It seems like it was the one who went to open the door just now…”
Butler Li immediately knew who it was. His dissatisfaction with Chen Ma grew even stronger, but he didn’t say more. He carried Nan Yuanman to see her room: “I’ll report this matter truthfully to the young master and madam when they return from the hospital.”
“The little miss must be tired today too, right? I’ll take you to your room to bathe, eat something, and get a good sleep first.”
After applying eye drops, Nan Yuanman nodded obediently, letting Butler Li carry her to see the room prepared for her.
Nan Yuanman’s room was on the second floor left side, facing south from north, with good lighting. The walls inside were painted pink, the bed was round in a shell-style princess bed, the floor was covered with soft carpet, and it was adorned with all sorts of dolls, making it especially dreamy and beautiful.
No matter how mature Nan Yuanman acted, she was still just a five-year-old child.
Seeing such a beautiful room, she couldn’t bear to leave.
Butler Li looked at the joyful expression on her small face and asked kindly: “Does the little miss like this room?”
Nan Yuanman nodded reservedly: “I like it very much. Thank you.”
Butler Li was relieved. He set Nan Yuanman down and called over the female servant staying at the villa, asking her to draw water and get clothes for her bath.
He went to the kitchen to prepare food for her, and also called the police to report that the person had been found, and called back the servants searching outside.
While Butler Li was busy, Nan Yuanman took out several jade stones from her cloth bag and set up a spiritual energy gathering array in the room.
Feeling the spiritual energy gradually filling the room, she went to take a satisfied bath.
–
Meanwhile.
Butler Li had just finished his call with the police.
Jiang Lixuan’s call came in: “How is it? Have you found her?”
Butler Li: “Found her.”
Jiang Lixuan let out a huge sigh of relief and asked hesitantly: “How is she? Did she… cry?”
“No, the little miss is in good condition.” Butler Li said, hesitating for a few seconds before lowering his voice to tell Jiang Lixuan what Nan Yuanman had just said.
Jiang Lixuan’s face instantly darkened, filled with anger: “She really said that to Yuanman?”
“Miss Yuanman is only five years old. Five-year-old children don’t lie.” Butler Li said objectively: “Young master, I know you care about Miss Xin Xin, and I care about her too.”
“It’s just that Miss Perfection is visiting the Jiang family for the first time, and she hears these words said to her. This is too cruel for her.”
“Moreover, calamity should not extend to children. Even if you don’t like Miss Bai Wenyin, you shouldn’t take it out on a child, right?”
Butler Li was also speaking such presumptuous words for the first time, but what Jiang Lixuan and the others did today was too unscrupulous.
Jiang Lixuan’s face alternated between pale and green. He pinched the bridge of his nose: “I understand.”
“Dismiss Chen Ma. The Jiang family doesn’t need servants who bully their superiors.”
Butler Li: “Yes.”
He hesitated for a few seconds before continuing: “She… please take care of her tonight first.”
Butler Li: “Alright, Young Master.”
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lixuan sat on the hospital bench, looking at Ge Peiyao and the others surrounding Jiang Xinxin in the hospital room, caring for her. His mind couldn’t help but think of Nan Yuanman, who was alone at home.
A hint of bewilderment appeared involuntarily on his face.
Had he… really done something wrong?-
With Butler Li’s meticulous care, plus the spirit-gathering array blocking the malevolent Qi outside the house, Nan Yuanman slept very well that night.
The next day when she woke up, the other members of the Jiang family had not yet returned.
Butler Li came to tell her that he had fired Chen Ma.
No one knew what madness Chen Ma had, but yesterday she stood stunned at the doorway all night, and early this morning she caught a cold and got a fever, which made it convenient for him to directly and forcefully send her away.
Nan Yuanman was very satisfied with this. After washing up, she went downstairs to eat.
Butler Li was afraid she would feel disappointed not seeing the other Jiang family members, so when handing her a steamed bun, he said warmly: “Little Miss, the master and Eldest Young Master aren’t deliberately not returning. They are currently handling company matters abroad and need a few days to come back.
Third Young Master is a star and is currently filming with the film crew. He won’t be back for another half month, but he knows you’ve arrived and will bring you a gift.
Fourth Young Master is a scientist. He is currently conducting a research project these past couple
Nan Yuanman seriously munched on the steamed bun, mumbling two vague “mm-hmm”s, utterly unconcerned about this.
Butler Li looked at her appearance and couldn’t help but sigh a few times in his heart.
After she had eaten her fill, Butler Li took out the watch he had prepared last night and handed it to her: “This is a children’s watch developed by the Jiang family company. It has all the functions of a mobile phone. The Young Master prepared it for you last night.”
Nan Yuanman had never used these high-tech devices before and earnestly learned how to use them from Butler Li.
Butler Li registered a WeChat account for her, bound the bank card, and taught her how to use the payment function on the watch.
After being taught for five minutes, Nan Yuanman got it.
Butler Li let her tap on the app on the watch to play, while he continued to go busy himself.
Nan Yuanman played for quite a while before reluctantly stopping. Just then, several slightly disorderly footsteps came from outside, accompanied by Zheng Feiyu’s and Butler Li’s greetings.
As soon as Nan Yuanman looked up, she saw Butler Li leading Zheng Feiyu and two middle-aged men in.
Before Butler Li could speak, Zheng Feiyu rushed toward her particularly excitedly: “Perfection! I got the thing on the Liu family!”
Jiang Danqiu and Zheng Zhenhao were stunned when they saw Nan Yuanman.
Jiang Danqiu asked skeptically, “Feiyu, this… this is the Master you mentioned?”
Even though Zheng Feiyu had given them a heads-up and told them that Nan Yuanman was very young, they still hadn’t expected her to be really this young!
Does she look five years old??
