The rules are weird, and the weirdness is drooling over her

Chapter 351 The Witch in the Dark Night 9

Lu Xichen wanted to ask the maids about Renee indirectly.

Who would have thought that the maids ignored Lu Xichen completely. Each of them pretended to be busy and didn't hear anything, and walked in the opposite direction of Lu Xichen.

Lu Xishen grabbed the maid closest to her in confusion.

"Answer my words."

The maid couldn't pretend anymore. She looked up at the serious Lu Xichen and suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Xichen.

"Ms. Kailin, please don't kill me. I promise to work harder for the manor."

The maid started to cry as she spoke.

Lu Xishen let go of the maid in confusion.

"I didn't say I was going to kill you. I just asked you a very simple question."

The maid was still kneeling on the ground, not daring to get up.

"Your question is no different from killing me, Miss Kailin, please, give me a chance to live."

"You go."

Lu Xichen couldn't force others into a trap just for his own sake.

Since the maids couldn't tell, she simply didn't ask.

She discovered through her network that there were two butlers in the Earl's manor, one was Renee and the other was Middleton. The two had no need to compete with each other and had a good relationship.

Since they have a good relationship, then is there anything wrong with the questions she asks the maid?

Be puzzled.

Lu Xishen still wanted to look for clues, but all the maids walked away when they saw her.

The manor is huge, and if her purpose is too obvious, she will be discovered quickly.

In the end, Lu Xichen had no choice but to give up the maid line.

At this time, the stepmother also came back.

Lu Xichen immediately followed what Leni said and tried her best not to let the lady see her.

Where is the best position? Lu Xichen thought about it and decided to go back to his bedroom.

No one else is willing to enter her bedroom, and she has to clean it by herself.

In the eyes of others, Lu Xichen's house was very disgusting because they could smell the rotten smell every time they opened the door.

But this is exactly the brilliance of the original owner, Karen.

She specially developed a perfume that could give off a rotten smell and sprayed the house with it every day.

The smell is indeed unpleasant, but it is not harmful to the human body and can also avoid the inspection of others, so why not do it?

Before Lu Xichen returned to the bedroom, he went to the laundry room to get new sheets and quilt covers, changed them and lay on the bed, temporarily throwing the ones he had taken off on the ground.

Just as she was enjoying her leisure time, the next second, her bedroom door was opened.

Lu Xichen didn't have time to react, she didn't even hear the footsteps outside the door.

The person who entered the room was a woman she had never seen before, followed by Renee, who was very respectful.

The woman entered Lu Xishen's house, and Leni could only stop at the door, her eyes full of desire.

Lu Xichen was curious about who the woman who came in was, so Leni took the initiative to introduce her.

"Miss Kailin, Madam is back. Come over here quickly so Madam can take a closer look at you."

Renee said this as a reminder with a smile.

People who don’t know would definitely think that Lu Xishen and the Countess have a good relationship.

Hearing that the other person was his stepmother, Lu Xishen looked at the woman again.

As soon as the stepmother entered the room, she noticed the sheets and quilt covers piled on the ground, and she couldn't help but smile.

"Madam." Lu Xishen called politely.

After looking around Lu Xishen's room, the smile on the stepmother's face gradually disappeared.

She asked Lu Xichen seriously, "Why is your house so clean?"

[(Characteristics of witches: poor but clean; characteristics of nobles: rude, dirty, and using dangerous chemicals to maintain beauty)]

Hearing this, Lu Xichen's heart tightened. If her stepmother found out that she was a witch, she would have no choice but to fight back violently.

[5. Please remember your identity, you are a witch. Witches are not allowed to exist in the kingdom. Please play your role as the third daughter of the nobility well and don't let others know that you are a witch.]

Lu Xichen's brain was working rapidly, and out of the corner of his eye he saw the rat in the corner and the feces monster he had seen yesterday.

"Ma'am, I only look clean, but I'm not actually like that, you see."

Lu Xishen pointed at the mouse in the corner.

The stepmother looked in the direction of Lu Xichen's finger, and when she saw the mouse, she smiled happily again.

"Well, remember to come for lunch later."

The stepmother left after leaving this message.

Leni looked at Lu Xichen with appreciation and continued to follow her stepmother.

Lu Xichen sat back on the bed and breathed heavily.

Her identity was almost discovered by her stepmother.

After adjusting his mood, Lu Xishen left the bedroom and took the initiative to look for his stepmother.

As they walked, they didn't see the stepmother, but saw the count, the father of the original Karin.

The Count was sunbathing on the lawn.

Lu Xichen originally wanted to turn around and leave, but she didn't know how the earl found her with his eyes closed.

"Kaylyn, come here."

When he suddenly heard the earl's voice, Lu Xishen was still a little hesitant.

After a second, she decided to pretend not to hear.

But the Earl did not give Lu Xichen any chance to leave. He still closed his eyes and just waved his hand gently, and several knights surrounded her.

Lu Xishen smiled helplessly and stopped.

Her cheap father is quite influential. He can even have the prince's knights protect him. He must have done a lot of deals in private.

Lu Xishen could recognize this group of knights.

They were the knights who accompanied the prince to show off his power in front of her yesterday, and some of them were the knights who captured her yesterday.

"What is the matter, Count?"

"Hmm?" The Earl looked up at Lu Xichen, then quickly lowered his head to speak.

"The prince will see you tomorrow. Don't anger him, or I will kill you directly."

Those words didn't sound like something a biological father would say.

Fortunately, Lu Xichen is not his real daughter.

"Count, I think my two sisters are more suitable to meet the prince than I am."

"I am the Count, you must obey whatever I say. Who gave you the courage to come up with other plans?"

Lu Xichen didn't care about what the Earl said, her focus was all on the Earl's attitude.

The Count did not want Laceline and Caroline to meet the Prince.

This is completely different from the storyline Lu Xichen had imagined.

She initially thought this was the story of Cinderella, but she didn't have the crystal slippers, the prince didn't like her, and her sister rescued her.

"Kaylene? Who allowed you to come to the back garden?"

Lu Xishen was just thinking about it, but her stepmother's scream broke her thoughts.

Then, her stepmother came hurriedly to her and raised her hand to slap her.

How could Lu Xichen endure it? She dodged and didn't fight back, which was already a great way of restraining herself.

But her stepmother became even angrier when she saw her actions.

Lu Xichen instantly thought of the third rule.

[3. The stepmother has a very high status in the family. You cannot disobey her. Once you anger her, Renee can only help you three times.]

Has she angered her stepmother now?

Seeing his stepmother's face becoming increasingly ugly, and then looking at the Earl who was indifferently continuing to bask in the sun next to him, Lu Xichen decided to find Leni first.

Regardless of whether or not the rules were broken, for now, as long as Renee was around, he was safe.

But where should she go to find Renee?
