Chapter 1797: Chapter 1797: I Want You!

Steward Zhuo looked at the servant, his face cold and fierce as he asked.

How does this person handle things, letting just anyone into the house, do you not realize this is a private residence and not to be intruded upon so carelessly!

"Master, I..., I really couldn’t stop him; I’m sorry, I’m sorry." Realizing his master must be angry, the servant had no choice but to keep apologizing.

This person, I don’t even know who he is; I couldn’t restrain him no matter how hard I tried.

I had tried to keep him out, but it was no longer possible, and the force with which this man had pushed the door open was really strong.

Such a heavy door, yet he opened it with just one hand, even though I was desperately blocking it, and still, I couldn’t stop him.

What could I possibly do?

"Master?"

Zhe Jue heard the servant’s call of "Master" and then realized that this stout man was indeed Steward Zhuo, whom he was seeking.

"Are you the Steward Zhuo from the City Lord’s Mansion?"

"Indeed!"

Seeing Zhe Jue acknowledge his proudest title, Steward Zhuo immediately raised his chin haughtily and responded.

"Who are you? Do you wish for this steward to introduce you to the City Lord? But it would require generosity from you."

He gestured with his hand towards Zhe Jue, meaning that he needed silver to agree to bring Zhe Jue to the City Lord.

Then, he surveyed Zhe Jue up and down with his crafty eyes and seemed rather pleased with Zhe Jue’s appearance.

Thinking to himself: The face is quite handsome, though the temperament is lacking a bit.

"The City Lord is not easily impressed by just anyone, with your looks, placed in the City Lord’s presence, you might be favored for a couple of months at most, but that would also be beneficial. At the City Lord’s side, even being favored for a couple of months could bring many advantages.

However... without this, even if you looked good, without my aid, you wouldn’t dream of seeing the City Lord."

He told Zhe Jue.

Zhe Jue: "..."

Damn, what sort of people are these, worrying about whether the City Lord cares or not!

"I want you!"

Saying this, he stepped forward and knocked the man out with a punch.

...

That night.

When Lin Caisang had finished a day of practicing her agility and finally emerged from the Jinzhu Space with Sui Zimo, they encountered Zhe Jue leading two bound people towards them.

"Zhe Jue, who is this person? He’s as fat as the pig at home."

The disheveled woman, she had seen before, was none other than the female City Lord from the City Lord’s Mansion, though now she was dressed somewhat more decently.

As for the other person, she really had never seen him before.

"He is Steward Zhuo who recently went to Yongxia City," Zhe Jue explained, looking at Steward Zhuo.

At that moment, the female City Lord still hadn’t awakened from her unconscious state, but Steward Zhuo, having been knocked out earlier, had already come to.

"You... who exactly are you, and what do you want?"

Steward Zhuo trembled all over, cautiously watching Lin Caisang and Sui Zimo.

"I’ve already said it, it was the City Lord who sent me to Yongxia City, I didn’t want to go either. Over the years, I’ve barely brought a few people back from Yongxia City, all gifted to the City Lord.

After delivering them to the City Lord, I never saw them again; I really don’t know anything."

He cried out to the two of them.

This man was really terrifying, he nearly beat me to death; I was unconscious, and he woke me by hitting me.
