Mageli poured herself a glass of wine as well, clinking glasses with Anji before taking a big gulp. “How about I call another girl over for you?”
“Forget it, I’m bored with them all—unless there’s another one like the one just now.”
The three of them, as best friends, naturally shared the same preferences.
Mageli was the wildest, Anji played the most, and Xie Yier, who used to only listen to their stories, was finally about to get some real experience tonight.
“You’ve got your eyes on that new girl too? Don’t tell me you’re planning to compete with Xie Yier? Let me warn you, don’t mess around. You know what she’s like—she’ll never let anyone else touch what’s hers. Don’t bring trouble upon yourself.”
Mageli hurriedly advised.
Anji waved her hand. “Relax, I’m not going to fight her for it. But if she ever gets tired of her, I wouldn’t mind having a second helping.”
Two hours later, in a VIP Room where no one would disturb her, was Aier’s current location.
Aier lay on the soft, fluffy bed, her big emerald eyes filled with panic as she looked fearfully at Xie Yier, who was lying beside her.
The alcohol had long since left her system, and now that she was sober, Aier fully realized what had happened to her in these two hours.
Her heart felt icy cold.
She’d been broken…
Whimper, whimper… Why did it turn out like this… I never wanted to do this kind of work…
“You’re finally awake, little cutie~” Xie Yier’s voice was lazy and cheerful.
She was lying on her side next to Aier, dressed in a white bathrobe, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, exuding a deadly allure.
Xie Yier’s legs were fair and slender, perfectly full, crossed elegantly, and her slim, neat toes hinted at a certain charm.
Those golden, abyssal eyes were boldly sizing up the helpless Aier, making her feel immense pressure.
“Elder Sister, you, why did you…” Aier’s voice was dry and hoarse, trembling with disbelief.
Now that she was sober, Aier finally got a good look at Xie Yier and recognized her.
Deep golden eyes, straight nose, perfect body lines.
Isn’t this the Elder Sister she’d run into at the entrance of the Alchemical Workshop the other day?!
“So you finally recognize me?”
A look of delight appeared on Xie Yier’s face as she reached out and gently pinched Aier’s cheek, kneading her chubby little face into all sorts of shapes.
“Uuu…” The pain brought tears to the corners of Aier’s eyes.
Why does she have to pinch my face again…
Xie Yier narrowed her golden eyes, a hint of reproach in her gaze. “Silly girl, what are you doing serving drinks here? This isn’t the place for you.”
“I…” Aier really couldn’t respond to that, so she just lowered her head in silence.
If not for being forced by life, she wouldn’t have come to a place like this.
And they’d promised she wouldn’t have to stay overnight with the guests, but in the end…
Uuuuuu.
A deeper sense of humiliation overwhelmed her. The pain in her body constantly reminded her of the fact that she’d been broken.
It really… hurts…
Especially now, when she glimpsed Elder Sister’s jade-like fingers waving in front of her, her body shivered instinctively.
Her body had developed an intense fear of those fingers, as if they’d left an unforgettable, painful mark on her.
Pa!
That fair, jade hand suddenly landed a smack on Aier’s little bottom, making her delicate body tremble as she stared at Xie Yier in shock.
Xie Yier’s face still wore that flawless smile. “Feels a little stiff from lying down so long. Little cutie, go fetch a basin of hot water for Elder Sister, so I can soak my feet and relax, alright?”
Eh? Why do I have to…
Aier instinctively wanted to refuse—she wasn’t Xie Yier’s servant, after all.
Even if she was beautiful, a true beauty, she couldn’t just bully people like this. I need to… I need to resist… I need to resist…
Yet when her gaze met Xie Yier’s seemingly smiling eyes, Aier instantly felt herself shrink down to a tiny ball.
All her indignation and courage crashed into an iceberg and were snuffed out, frozen in an instant.
A deep-seated fear was awakened in her body’s memory.
She felt that if she dared refuse, what awaited her next would be endless, even more maddening teasing and torment…
Xie Yier watched her with a soft chuckle. “Hm?”
That half-smiling, half-not expression radiated an indescribable pressure, forcing Aier to make a decision.
“N-nothing, I’ll go right away!” All her resistance instantly turned to obedience.
Soft by nature, she could only brace herself and agree.
Summoning all her strength to prop up her aching, exhausted body, she randomly grabbed a nightdress from the mess on the floor and draped it over her bare skin, then scurried off as if chased by a wild beast.
Her little white feet pitter-pattered as she ran to the Bathing Room in the next room, then slipped out the back door to the Boiler Room to fetch water.
Damn it! She just played with me, and now she’s ordering me around—this is just too much!
Aier was like an angry little bunny, only daring to sulk in silence, pouting as she grumbled in her heart.
You want me to prepare a foot bath for you? Hmph! Just wait, I’ll make it super hot and scald your little toes into pig’s trotters!
Aier’s urge for revenge had just flared up, only to be snuffed out again by harsh reality.
She remembered that this woman wasn’t ordinary—she was a Noble. If she angered her, the slightest gesture could make Aier disappear from the world.
Thinking of this, Aier shivered, quickly pouring more cold water into the basin of hot water she’d just fetched, stirring it with her hand to check the temperature.
Uuu, why did I have to provoke such a terrifying woman…
Only after confirming the water was warm—absolutely not hot enough to scald those precious, noble feet—did Aier, staggering, carry it back.
“Uu… it hurts so much…”
The soreness all over Aier’s body hadn’t faded, and she still walked with a bit of a wobble.
But out of fear of Xie Yier’s dominance and authority, Aier didn’t dare slack off in the slightest.
She brought the hot water into the room, timidly placing it on the floor in front of Xie Yier.
“It’s… it’s ready…”
Though she still harbored resentment, she didn’t dare show it at all.
“Mm~” Xie Yier made a satisfied sound and sat up on the bed.
“But there’s one more thing…”
Her voice, laced with strange magic, rang out again.
“Why don’t you help Elder Sister wash my feet?” Xie Yier’s voice carried a lazy smile, as her flawless jade foot elegantly slipped out from under her bathrobe, hovering above the steaming water.
