Differential Treatment

Biên tập viên: Misty Cloud Translations

"Little Lin, why have you returned alone? Where is your elder brother? Didn't you bring guards with you when you left? Why didn't they escort you back home?" City Lord Duan asked his daughter. Though he looked displeased, his voice was filled with concern. 

"I went to look for my elder brother but he wasn't around. They said that he had left with the team to go out to practice so I left him a letter and came back first. On my way back something happened and the guards who were escorting me died protecting me. On the way home I also met someone…."

When she spoke of this, she stopped and her face had a look of anger: "I met a traveller on the road and we had agreed to travel together. That person had ideas on the treasure I had with me, so in my anger I killed him." 

She didn't dare to admit that she had been taken advantage of so she had to change her story. Anyway, that person was dead, so no one would know that she had been taken advantage of.
