The mean housemaid Jiao (2)

Housemaid Jiao sneered and said, "You are lucky I didn't have my stinger whip with me this time. Or else, you wouldn't get away with just a few lashes for cussing at me."

Yayoi looked at housemaid Jiao coldly.

Throughout Xuan Yu's childhood, for as long as he could start to remember, it was this bitch who carried out most of his stepmom's abusive acts. They treated him no different from an enslaved child. It wasn't to discipline for any wrong that the immature Xuan Yu has done, but merely for the sake of torturing and entertainment. And, yes, those sufferings didn't stop even after he had grown up till this day.

Reminiscing about Xuan Yu's childhood memories, Yayoi could feel the tingling sensation on her back. The old scars left behind by the countless whipping that this body has received throughout the years.

Yayoi felt as if her skin was tearing.

"Tsk!" In the end, housemaid Jiao scoffed, "Do you think some cheap cosmetic products are going to get you out of trouble? Let me warn you, brat. The madam won't bat an eye for your cheap things. Everything she uses costs tens of thousands. Can you even afford it? You might as well give it to me. When it's time for you to get your punishment, I might consider sparing you from a few lashes. Sound good, no?"

"When did I say these are for my stepmom? A bitch shouldn't block the way." Yayoi effortlessly pushed housemaid Jiao aside with one hand.

She wasn't the previous Xuan Yu!

Yayoi doesn't feel the need to put up with their abusive treatment. Before passing through the gate, she then added with a chilly gaze, "...and what I do is none of your business, so keep your mouth shut! Is that understood, housemaid Jiao?"

Housemaid Jiao was shocked by 'Xuan Yu's changes in attitudes. He wasn't like this a few days ago. Moreover, after taking pleasure in abusing Xuan Yu throughout his entire childhood, she never expected that he would dare to talk back to her like this one day.

It made her feel uncomfortable.

However, housemaid Jiao's thoughts didn't last long as she quickly retorted, "And who says you could enter? Let me inform you about something. Sir Xuan Hao is inside the mansion. He instructed that you are to kneel in front of the gate and is not allowed to stand up until he allowed you to do so."

"He wants me to kneel here? Doesn't he know a heavy thunderstorm is coming? Droplets already started falling, and he still wants me to kneel?"

There were barely any changes in Yayoi's expression, for she wasn't surprised.

Somehow, Yayoi had expected this before she even rang the doorbell as it wasn't the first time. Whenever his father, Xuan Hao, said something, Xuan Yu would obligate. And for multiple times, he would be faithfully kneeling in front of the gate for the entire night in the name of 'punishment' and 'discipline.'

"Yes, he wants you to kneel here." Observing Yayoi's calm expression, housemaid Jiao further added with a wicked smile, "It wasn't anything new at this point, no? Well, it's already started raining, so I will be going inside. Know your place and accept the punishment. Oh, you see that box on the side? This afternoon, I feed the stray cats, and it still has some leftover scrap. You can have them. Heh, knowing you, you will eat it, right?"

*Rumble!*

*Rumble!*

At that moment, the dark sky above their head flashed with a dazzling silver light along with the deafening roaring thunder.

In the blink of an eye, heavy rain started coming down in waves. Before long, both Yayoi and the housemaid's clothes quickly get drenched.

*Achoo!*

She sneezed.

After getting no reaction from 'Xuan Yu,' housemaid Jiao decided to turn around and leave. She thought that it was boring when her words fell on deaf ears.

But will Yayoi suck it up and kneel here as Xuan Hao wanted? It was out of the question!

The era of peace has ended!

After all that provocation, it's was time for a new War!

Looking at housemaid Jiao's back view, Yayoi quickly rushed forward and casually lifted her in the air with her stomach facing down over 'His' shoulder.

[Ding! The host has randomly triggered a side quest, will you accept?]

...

"W-what the hell are you doing!?"

Shocked, housemaid Jiao shouted at the top of her lung but to no avail. With the heavy downpour and roaring thunder, no one can hear her.

Her good day is over.
