The atmosphere of the main residence dining room was silent, there was only the sound of cutlery clashing against each other, without anyone making a sound.
Distant from Arana's residence, Arana is now enjoying her lunch in the courtyard of her residence accompanied by Nobu and two other Arana servants, the two servants Arana has just adopted into his servant, because from the first residence Arana only have Arana and Nobu only.
While Arana was on her way back to the residence of the Huan minister, Arana saw a taun who was selling two slaves of hers, which she owned, Arana who saw the potential of the two slaves immediately bought the two and brought them into his residence.
"what's your name?" asked Arana in the middle of her meal.
Arana is used to eating with Nobu and also some of his restaurant servants without distinguishing castes from each other, because Arana judges if they are the same, just like him, after all Arana is also not a noble child who needs to be proud (think Arana).
"I am Darxa miss and this is my sister Xixi" Darxa replied firmly.
"i really like you" said Arana.
Arana is attracted to Darxa and Xixi because Arana knows that two people can be relied on, Darxa who is flat and firmly has a body with martial arts, if Arana sharpens it a little sharper, Darxa will be the one Arana can rely on and it will be very profitable for arana later.
While Xixi although the girl looks soft but can be seen clearly by Arana if Xixi is no less great than Darxa if her ability in sharpening is as sharp as Darxa, the face and nature of Xixi that can trick everyone into not being able to see the original abilities in her possession, makes Arana much more interested in honing Xixi back, to be used by Arana later on.
"Previously please forgive my lady's servant, what exactly makes the lady want to buy us both?" asked Darxa to the point, because Darxa did not think it would be that easy to attract Arana's attention.
"because of your talent." lightly Arana
"our talents?." asked Xixi confusedly.
"don't be evasive, I know you have a capable martial art and that's what I need right now, though I wonder why a great person like you two could be sold as a slave?." straightforward Arana without stale bases.
Darxa and Xixi are shocked by Arana's reply.
"this little girl is not an ordinary person, it's appropriate that she can attract the attention of the master, even filling the space in her heart." said the two inwardly while clashing.
"Our family was killed by a nobleman and when we tried to fight them, we were caught by him because they were more than the two of us, therefore we ended up in enslavement." obviously Darxa, Darxa didn't lie about her family, but she lied about slavery.
"hmmm makes sense too." said Arana while observing Darxa and Xixi.
"miss Arana is not the person you both think she would only hurt the person who betrayed her and will greatly appreciate the person who is willing to be loyal to her" Nobu said, opening his voice, upon seeing the slightly stiffened atmosphere between them.
"if you are willing to follow me, I will regard you as my family, but if you are not willing, you can leave this residence, you are freed from slavery." straightforwardly Arana added Nobu's words which made the two girls amazed at the young girl before them.
" this girl really deserves to be our lady" thought the two.
"we will follow you miss and be willing to be loyal to you." the two girls asserted with great confidence.
"thank you Miss for accepting both of us." replied the second.
"there's no need for me to need you and anything else might need me" Arana said.
"yeah, one more you two must remember, between us there are only four of us the rest of whom is not who, if there are others in this family who act improperly to you, he said, you have the right to fight." said Arana
"fine miss, we will remember!."
The rest of the four of them passed lunch with laughter together, getting to know each other, while the figure in black clothes was not far from where the girls were, continuing to look at Arana who was smiling cheerfully there, it made the man smile to himself see the happiness of Arana, until it made the other man who was next to him shocked in horror.
On the other hand, after lunch was over, Quin xie rushed to meet minister Huan in his workspace, Quin xie's heart felt uneasy as he met Arana at the family's ancestral place, he wants to express his heart to the minister of Huan as husband and also Arana's biological father.
"Sir, am I interrupting your work?" asked Quin xie when he was in front of his husband.
Minister Huan who was reading some reports immediately stopped his activity when he heard the voice of the wife
"no, come here" minister Huan said as he pointed at the seat before him, Quin xie instantly rushed to sit there.
" what made you come here?" asked Minister Huan, who saw an anxious look on his wife's face.
"it's about Arana sir." said Quin xie
"what's wrong with the kid? is he troublemaking again?." asked Minister Huan who sounded a little provoked by emotion to hear the name of his second daughter, the article in this residence, if anyone said Arana's name to the minister of Huan, it must be because Arana has made a mistake and it has happened for years to make Minister Huan careless.
"no sir." quin xie quickly denied.
"then?." asked Minister Huan curiously.
"since this morning I have released Arana from the time of punishment I gave her, but Arana's nature is now very different sir and it makes my heart uncomfortable sir." quin xie.
"he hasn't changed, indeed he's grown up with his stubborn nature, whether he's down the ready nature." minister Huan complained when he remembered how stubborn Arana was now even his gaze was very cold like it could not be touched by anyone.
"that's not the problem, sir." elak Quin xie again.
"there's no need to think about the child anymore, after all the child does not have a big influence on this family, you better just think about the future of our first daughter Bai min, anyway, you remember when she was 15 years old, 2 years later she was about to marry a man, and you as a mother had to prepare her from now on." minister Huan said he remembered Quin xie
With a heavy heart yquin xie agreed to her husband's words and did not continue their conversation again.
