Chapter 270.1: I’m Nitpicking, It Has to be You
Qing Yu had left halfway through and she did not know what Qing Luo Yan and the others discussed. She only heard from the other serving attendants that the Temple Lord had asked the guests to stay a night in the Divine Temple as they must be exhausted after such a long journey.
Several attendants girls were discussing it excitedly amongst themselves as the Temple Lord would definitely send some of them to go serve the guests and they might just be lucky enough to be picked. Even if they could not win the visiting lords’ favour or affection, they would at least be able to admire their lordly and beautiful countenance in close proximity, which would still be quite a treat!
Especially if it’s the Dark Overlord. That face of his has already caused all of them to be unable to sleep for the past few days.
Qing Yu could not help but arch up an eyebrow, finding it amusing to hear their words. That fella had not been lying when he said that he had the better half of all the women in Cloud Heaven smitten with him, and also a good part of the elderly and children as well.
It could be seen from here how confident he was of himself.
That night, the commotion from an incident caused quite a big stir. The two attendant girls who were sent to Zhuge Qiong were chased out and it was said that he specifically asked for Qing Yu to go serve him, refusing any others.
Those two attendant girls were very beautiful looking as well and in other usual circumstances, Zhuge Xiong was always very gentle with beauties.
But it was as if he had lost his mind today, where no other serving maid could begin to compare after laying eyes on Qing Yu, causing him to feel highly impatient and short fused. Even if he was unable to make the girl his, he must at least be able to get her to come serve him during his stay here!
At their wits end, the two attendant girls who were chased away had no choice but to have one of them go report it to Qing Luo Yan, and the other to go fetch Qing Yu.
Qing Yu was calm and composed as she followed the frantic and anxious attendant girl, trailing a short distance behind. When the attendant girl saw her indifferently unhurried demeanor, frustration rose up inside and her voice was shrill as she screeched: “Can’t you move faster than that? If Guild Leader Zhuge becomes impatient while waiting, we will all not be spared his anger!”
Upon saying that, the attendant girl took two wide strides towards her, and reached her hand out to grab her.
All of a sudden, she felt a strange icy chill run through her when she saw Qing Yu’s narrow phoenix like eyes gaze at her without a ripple of emotion in them.
The attendant girl’s outstretched hand halted midaction for a moment. She then harrumphed indignantly before she retracted her hand and turned away, unable to look at the young lady again.
What kind of devilry is at work here? No one knows where this young lady is really from at all, but had appeared here in the Divine Temple out of the blue. She does not act like any serving attendant in any way but the Temple Lord seems to favour and indulge her very much.
They were both similarly serving attendants here in the Divine Temple but the way the young lady carried herself just felt so extraordinary, with a faint tinge of nobility. How could any of them not feel jealous of her?
