As for whether Miss Pei's illness would improve, Qu Fulan no longer cared.
After all, now she had become the maidservant of Heir Pei, the only personal maidservant. No matter how formidable Miss Pei was, she couldn't take someone away from Heir Pei's side. She didn't have the guts nor the capability.
Though the old lady treated her maidservants well, before becoming her personal maid, many things couldn't be assured. Besides, the old lady was getting on in years and didn't have the time to worry about a maid's affairs.
From this perspective, becoming Heir Pei's maidservant had its advantages; at least she didn't have to worry about being easily given away.
Even a man's pride, even towards a mere maidservant, couldn't bear having others coveting it. Wouldn't that be challenging a man's dignity?
What worried Qu Fulan instead was Master Huideng.
