The little servant girl standing outside the door had already brought in a copper basin filled with hot water.It was passed over to Qingdai who then walked into the inner room with her face lowered. The ambiguous smell from last night in the room had not completely dissipated. A soft light red gauze was hanging over the canopybed but there was still a faint outline of the shadowy figure lying down.The man sitting next to the bed was wearing a white tunic, with his black hair disheveled, but it did not reduce his majestic aura at all.He possessed an angular face that was currently showing a stern expression and his eagle-like eyes were deep and majestic.Qingdai walked up to face him and handed him the wrung out towel. While he was wiping his face, she went behind him and carefullycombed his soft black hair.Then tied it up and put on his black gauze hat .1At this time, the figure in the bed stirred awake and propped herself up. The woman's soft and bright voice flowed through. "My lord, letthis wife assist you.""No need." The man's voice was indifferent as he replied. He stood up from the bed and threw the towel in his hand to the maid in frontof him.Qingdai quickly caught it then put it aside. She turned around to grab the government official garment off of a clothing rack inscribed2with flowers and dragons.Then helped the man, who raised his arms, put it on.Her familiarity with these steps relied largely on her body's instinctive movements. The man was very close to her, and she seemed tobe able to feel his heavy gaze above her head.The fingers holding the official uniform shook, and her fingernails lightly scratched his chest that had yet to be covered by the uniform.Before he could react, she plopped down to kneel on the ground with her forehead resting on the back of her hands and her voicetrembled. "My lord, please forgive me."Wei Yuan was stunned when he looked at the girl's thin and trembling back, and pursed his thin lips. He didn't know that he was soterrifying."It's nothing, you can get up."Qingdai felt that her reaction was too tense and excessive so she tried to calm herself down.The bed curtain was lifted up, and Lady Su's voice was gentle. "What happened?" "It's a trivial matter. Madam, please rest for a while." Wei Yuan turned his face slightly and his voice was cold. But the thoughtfulnessbehind the words made Lady Su's lips curl up."Since it's Mao shi 3, this wife should get up."By the time Qingdai walked out of the main room, her close-fitting clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and the chilly late springbreeze blew through the corridor.She hunched her shoulders and walked quickly to Wei Yuan's study in the front yard.Logically speaking, bedwarming maids should live in the mistress's courtyard, but Madam Wei gave her to Wei Yuan .4So her residence was arranged in Wei Yuan's study.She walked to the wing next to the study and entered her room. Only then did she breathe a long sigh of relief. She wiped her bodywith a clean towel and changed her clothes.Then she went out to the well to get a basin of cold water and washed herself with water. She had gotten up late just now and didn'teven have a chance to wash up.The water in the copper basin reflected the girl's delicate face. She looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. The ends of her eyeswere a little droopy, and whenever people would look down on her from above, there would be a sense of pity.She lowered her head and looked at her body again. The little girl's body was pitifully thin, with thin arms and legs. She didn't havemuch flesh on her chest or butt.She was so petite and fragile."Qingdai, you came back?" Cuihong's loud voice came from outside the door.She put down the towel she was using to wipe her face. Just as she stood up, a girl with a charming appearance and a curvy bodyhad already walked in, swaying her hips.Qingdai frowned but said nothing. She glanced at the maid sitting on the only stool in her room and brought her a cup of tea."What does Sister Cuihong want from me?"Cuihong picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The rough and astringent taste made Cuihong, who was used to Madam Wei's fine tea,spit it back out.She slammed the white porcelain cup on the table and muttered. "It tastes so bad, you can't even drink it."Qingdai ignored her, picked up the copper basin and poured the water outside the house.Cuihong looked at her and asked directly. "Hey, you were on night duty with the Marquis and Madam last night, how was it?""Wht d"hit"?"ao you mean ow was Qingdai poured the water and came back, putting the copper basin in on the shelf, pretending not to understand."It's the Marquis, did he do anything to you…" Cuihong trailed off. No matter how outspoken she was, she still blushed then blinked ather.Although she had long known that Cuihong came to her to inquire about information, she was too direct. Her behavior neverchanged. She didn't know how she survived in this mansion until now."No." Qingdai replied coldly with her eyes half lowered.Cuihong muttered "no fun" then snorted and rolled her eyes. "Then, how many times did the Marquis call for water last night? "5Qingdai raised her head and glanced at her. "The Master's affairs are not something we servants can discuss." Cuihong was irritated and went straight to the point. "You're making a fool out of me. When we were working at the Old Madam'splace, we had it easy but when we arrived at the Marquis's place, we couldn't even drink a good cup of tea. If you don't act smarter,soon or later the Marquis will abandon you."After she finished speaking, she blinked and waited for Qingdai to panic then ask her for help.But she didn't realize that Qingdai didn't seem to have heard her words. The latter picked up her clothes that she had changed out ofand put them away.Little did she know that Qingdai had already decided on the path forward. She wanted to give up.Give up early. Or better yet, give up right now!It was only four days before her life would end.Qingdai was lying on the bed with a pale face, with her cheeks abnormally flushed. The cold sweat on her body almost soaked thebedding.She took a hard breath and tried to hold up the teapot on the table with trembling hands, but she didn't even have the strength to doso.With a shake of her arm, the teapot rolled to the ground and the tea flowed all over the floor.She closed her eyes. Her mind was dizzy with heat, her body didn't feel like it was hers, and her consciousness gradually becameblurred.She contracted the cold three days ago, and in just a few days it worsened to the point where she couldn't even get out of bed.She fell ill so quickly…A sudden flash of inspiration came to her mind, which was in a state of confusion. She opened his eyes suddenly and opened thesystem with trembling fingers that she hadn't opened since she looked at it once last time.The system panel was exactly the same as before. The only thing that had changed was the row of small words in the lower leftcorner.Number of days remaining: 0.4There was even a decimal point!Qingdai laughed at herself for actually being in the mood to complain. She turned over with difficulty, but she was trying hard toconcentrate on her thoughts.Could it be that the "number of days remaining" refers to the number of days she has left to live? Will she die when the days countdown to 0?Her modern body was hit by a car and died. It must be tattered beyond recognition by now, maybe it turned into a handful of ashes.Even if she died in this world, she can't go back.But if she didn't want to die, she had to do a mission and seduce Wei Yuan…The number of remaining days on the panel suddenly jumped to 0.3, and she felt her consciousness slip away in an instant.She didn't know if it was her illusion, but there was a scene before her.A sea of red flowers on the other side, and on the other side are the long forgotten faces of her grandparents.T/N: Ooof, this system is harsh. To seduce or not to seduce? This target has more than one woman so what should our gal do? If youwant to live, you gotta do what you gotta do…. 1. It's a cloth like hat for court officials, he's a military general officer 2. Ancient clothing rack looks like this: 3. 5-7am 4. Bedwarming maids are just like regular maids, their indenture contract is managed by the heads of the household and are notfree 5. After s*x, hot water is usually called. So many rounds = many times called for hot water…
