Chapter 1486: Ready to Die at Any Time
"I... I'm not dead yet."
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Jiayi, who had fallen into a drowsy state, woke up from the soft bed. Although her spirit was still a little sluggish, her body no longer had any pain, and she even felt that she was stronger than ever before.
Moreover, she had not slept on such a soft bed for many years.
Even in Linyu Pavilion, she slept on the hard bed like ordinary disciples.
"Miss, you are awake."
Seeing that Lin Jiayi was getting better, a very beautiful maid next to her said in surprise.
"Miss?"
Lin Jiayi was stunned. She had not heard this title for many years.
Since leaving the earth, she was destined to be a maid.
Even before entering Linyu Pavilion, she once cut her face with a knife. Only she knew the pain.
After Linyu Pavilion, although the master did not let her do more work as a waiter, she was just an ordinary disciple after all, and she had to do some rough work.
She had not heard the title of Miss for many years.
"Where is this?"
Lin Jiayi looked around and saw all kinds of luxurious things, which were much more luxurious and exquisite than what she saw in Linyu Pavilion. It was obvious that they were made by a master.
And even the woman who called herself Miss next to her was wearing a valuable dress, but there was a word "servant" clearly sewn on the upper left corner.
"Servant."
"Such a beautiful woman is actually a servant."
Lin Jiayi was a little stunned.
She sat up from the bed, always feeling that this position should not be for her.
She was just an ordinary person who was not even a master.
"Miss, this is the City Lord's Mansion."
The servant said.
"City Lord's Mansion?"
Lin Jiayi was stunned. The last memory was that she was blocked by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and even wanted to kill her, but in the end she didn't know why she stopped.
Could it be that the City Lord saved her in the end?
And let her stay in this place?
But how could this be possible?
The Lord of Zhongdu City is such a person that even his master looks up to him. How could he speak up to save him?
Could it be that he had just escaped from the wolf's mouth and now fell into the tiger's mouth?
"Yes."
"Miss, this is the Lord of the City's Mansion."
The servant nodded, "Miss, please wait a moment, I will go and inform the Lord of the City."
As he said that, he turned around and walked out of the door without waiting for Lin Jiayi to speak.
And Lin Jiayi was a little confused and at a loss, and she didn't know what was waiting for her next.
If the Lord of the City was really tempted by her beauty and wanted to occupy her like that fat man, then she really didn't want to live, and would rather die. With her strength, no matter what, it was impossible for her to escape from the Lord of the City.
But she really couldn't bear it.
She even hoped that she would not wake up from that dream.
In the dream, he was holding her, so warm and so safe.
It's a pity that it will always be a dream.
A dream that wakes up as soon as you open your eyes.
"Wow."
Soon, the Lord of the City came.
Tall and majestic, full of heroic spirit.
He stood there with endless majesty.
Lin Jiayi, who was already standing on the ground, was a little at a loss.
"You're awake."
The city lord seemed very enthusiastic when they met.
This made Lin Jiayi even more vigilant.
He was either a traitor or a thief.
Moreover, she didn't think she could be anxious with such a person.
On the way here, she already knew what kind of existence Zhongdu City was. It was ranked at the top among the hundred cities of the human race. Even the entire Linyu Pavilion was scum compared to it.
Because the poisoned city lord who dominated this place was a star saint!
Even a ninth-level star saint!
That was the man in front of her.
She had never thought that this man could stand in front of her and talk to her with a smile.
If he had no intention, she would never believe it.
And what else could she want, except beauty, there was nothing else.
"Please tell me if you have anything to say."
"Thank you for saving me."
Lin Jiayi was on high alert, even with her mind attached to the weapon in the space ring at any time. If anything unexpected happened, she would sharpen the knife and commit suicide. But in terms of her attitude towards people, she still maintained a high level of education.
After all, it was the man in front of her who saved her.
If he had no other intentions, he was really kind-hearted.
Although she didn't believe this reason.
"You're welcome."
The Lord of Zhongdu City smiled and waved his hand, "In fact, I didn't do much, but someone else did it."
"If you want to thank him, you should thank him."
The Lord of Zhongdu City has seen that Ning Tianlin values the woman in front of him. After settling her down in the first place and ensuring that her life is not in danger, all he has to do is go to the dungeon and start interrogating and retaliating against the fat man!
Originally, this kind of punishment should be done by a servant. Doing it yourself will often splash blood and lose your status.
But Ning Tianlin did it himself.
It seems like he has skinned the fat man alive with his own hands.
He is probably in jail now, making the fat man want to die.
"Thank you, sir."
"If the city lord has any intention, please tell him for me."
Lin Jiayi didn't feel anything strange, because she thought the Lord of Zhongdu City was talking about the guard, because the one who rescued her was not the Lord of Zhongdu City, but a guard.
"I can't do this for you."
The Lord of Zhongdu City waved his hand and smiled, "You have to thank him in person."
"After all, he is your benefactor."
Lin Jiayi frowned, a little confused about what the Lord of Zhongdu City was up to, and asked, "Where is he now?"
"I'll be here soon." The Lord of Zhongdu City said, and stretched out his hand, saying, "Miss Jiayi, please sit down."
"Thank you, Lord of Zhongdu City." Lin Jiayi nodded and prepared to sit down, but suddenly, she was shocked, her face became even more ugly, and she said angrily, "You are a Lord of Zhongdu City, but you shamelessly read my memory!"
It's no wonder she thought so, because if not, how would he know that her name was Lin Jiayi.
Moreover, she didn't want to live anymore, let alone question her in person.
"How dare you!"
"How dare you talk to the Lord of the City!"
The Lord of the City did not reply, but a guard beside him shouted loudly, with a look of anger on his face.
"Don't interrupt."
The Lord of the City did not yell at Lin Jiayi, but waved his hand and scolded some guards.
"Miss Jiayi, I didn't discipline my subordinates well, and I made a fool of myself for you." The Lord of Zhongdu City smiled at Lin Jiayi, and then turned around and said coldly to the guard, "Get out of here!"
"Before Miss Jiayi gets angry, you still have a chance to survive!"
Although the voice was not loud, it made everyone in the house change their minds.
