In the following days, Chen Xing went to the housekeeper's center to have tea every day, but he never met the right one.

In fact, the housekeepers here are all good, and some even serve the nobles who have served the great nobles. They are very good at speaking and doing things and dealing with people, and they cannot find many problems. But Chen Xing always felt that they were like a deep pool, silent and peaceful, and they were invisible.

At the bottom, you can't see the depths of your heart.

Because he didn't understand, he couldn't trust him. In this embarrassing situation, Chen Xing thought of Lao Ji. No matter what, Lao Ji also lived in Binglan City, and may be able to provide some advice.

"Look for a butler?" Lao Ji was extremely excited when he heard Chen Xing's request, "I happen to have someone to choose here!"

"Who?" Chen Xing asked.

"An old friend, who has been the butler of a big family, now has no job." Lao Ji said.

"That's OK, bring it here to have a look." Chen Xing said.

"This..." But at this moment, Lao Ji stammered.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xing asked.

"He, he didn't take the initiative to find a job. Maybe, he might want you to come to the house in person..." Lao Ji said embarrassedly.

Chen Xing couldn't help but frown, saying that there was no reason for the boss to come to hire employees. Then he remembered the allusion of visiting the cottage three times. Whether it was a talent or not, it had to be seen if it was a talent, so he asked, "Is it worth it?"

"It's worth it, absolutely worth it! Being decent, kind-hearted, and a good person, just not very lucky..."

"Tell me about his situation." Chen Xing said.

"He was my childhood playmate, nicknamed Lao K, because he looked very much like Lao K in playing cards, tall and square."

"Old K is an orphan. The clean aunt on the street picked up the one I raised and lived on the same street as me. He worked as a soldier and fought wars, and later went to the Poly family."

"After I came back, I heard that the Poly family was destroyed by Dongfang Xuanyuan, and my wife and daughter were even insulted in the street. I was worried about his safety, so I thought about going back to Binglan City to take a look."

"Under normal circumstances, disputes between lords will not affect the servants. A few days ago, I found his address through the butler's center. However, his current situation is not very good. He was the lady of the Poly family who was raised by him.

He was in pain and was in a very depressed state when something like this happened."

"Well..." Chen Xing pondered for a moment and agreed to go to Lao K's residence.

No matter what, such a person is at least in love and righteousness. Furthermore, the other party is Lao Ji’s friend, which is also a good idea.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xing brought two maids and Lao Ji to the apartment in Tianshuixiang.

There are slums everywhere, even the dream castle-like Ice Blue City. Sweet Shui Lane is the slums of Ice Blue City, but it looks better than the residential areas of many big cities.

Quiet and elegant, clean and tidy, flowers and plants are planted everywhere, full of a peaceful atmosphere of life.

However, Apartment No. 402 exudes a stale atmosphere, dark and obscure, as if the place where the dying people live.

When I first met Lao K, Lao K was not in good spirits. He was hunched over and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the wood carving doll in his hand from time to time. The puppet was not very carved, and the craftsmanship was rough, but it could be seen that it was a

Girl.

Lao K is more than two meters tall, a whole head taller than Chen Xing. His face is square, and his beard covers half of his face, making him unable to see his appearance. His gray hair is long and messy, and he has not been combed for a long time, like

It was a grass nest. When I saw Chen Xinglai, I just nodded and was not very enthusiastic.

"Old k, this is Lord Chen Xing. He just won the title of baron and is very powerful." Lao Ji patted Lao K's shoulder and introduced.

"Hello, sir." After a while, Lao K's eyes took back from the puppet and greeted Chen Xing with a slow reaction.

"Who is she?" Chen Xing asked, pointing to the puppet in Lao K's hand.

"She..." Lao K's eyes were not focal, and he seemed not to understand Chen Xing's words.

"Sir, are you asking you, who is the carving in your hand?" Lao Ji repeated.

"Ashahi, my poor Ashahi." Old K squirmed his lips as if he was talking to himself.

"Ashahi Poly, the eldest lady of the Poly family, has been raised by Lao K since she was a child, just like..." Speaking of this, Lao Ji's expression was a little unbearable, "Just like his daughter..."

"Is she still alive?" Chen Xing asked.

"Living, but..." Lao Ji hesitated for a while, looked at Lao K who had his head down several times, and finally sighed, "It's probably even more miserable than death."

After being silent for a long time, Chen Xing pressed Lao K's shoulder and said, "Friend, as long as she is still alive, there is still hope."

Lao K raised his head, his eyes were empty and there was no focal length. "No, impossible..." He shook his head to himself, as if he had lost all hope.

"Since that's the case, then forget it, I don't want to waste." After saying that, Chen Xing turned around and left without a pause. Ye Qian and Li Mei turned around sympathetically, glanced at them for a few seconds, and followed the master downstairs.

As soon as he walked to the front hall, the sound of slutching and bumping suddenly came from the upstairs. Then he saw Lao K rushing down, his eyes opened like a copper bell, staring at Chen Xing, calming for a long time, with his teeth gaping

A few words were squeezed out, "Do you have a way to save her?"

"No." Chen Xing shook his head.

The spark in Lao K's eyes quickly extinguished.

"But..." Chen Xing paused for a moment, "If the opportunity is right, I can give some money and try to redeem her." Fearing that the other party misunderstood, he emphasized again, "It is just to do it without affecting my interests."

try."

He was just a baron in the ranks and the lowest-class nobleman. Although he had some money in his pocket, he was not as arrogant as he dared to fight against Duke Zilan, which was no different from seeking death.

Lao K stared at Chen Xing's eyes, as if he wanted to see something in his eyes. After being silent for a long time, Lao K smashed the wooden handrail hard as if he had made up his mind, "Okay, I'll talk to you."

Walk!"

"Hahaha, it's great, Lao K, we can be partners again!" Seeing Lao K agree, Lao Ji beat the other person's shoulder excitedly.

"Old friend, help me get a haircut." Lao K asked.

"Okay!" Lao Ji shouted and ran into Lao K's room excitedly, looking for tools for haircuts.

After a while, in the small garden downstairs, Lao K sat on a wooden chair. Lao Ji tied a torn curtain cloth for him and trimmed his long gray hair bit by bit with a razor. Ye Qian held the towel and Li Mei held it.

The water basin stands aside.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Xing checked Lao K's information.

...

Lao K's attributes and skills are quite good, with elite strength and strong service awareness. His psionic shield and psychic armor are different, and he can protect third parties.

"Wow!"

Ye Qian's exclamation pulled Chen Xing's thoughts back. Looking up, a face that was old and hard, with tough lines appeared in her sight.

It seemed like the sword that washed away the dust, shining again. I saw Lao K tidying his flat head, his beard neatly trimmed, his eyebrows were thick, his eyes were deep, his seriousness was gentle, and he was indescribably calm and handsome.

"Sir, I made you laugh just now."

Lao K untied the cloth on his body, stood up straight, and saluted Chen Xing solemnly.

"It's okay, I'll be my own people in the future." Chen Xing stretched out his hand.
