"You'll be his?"
A youth's expression turned knotty when h e heard that. The way she worded it was ripe for misunderstandings.
Sally was slightly taken aback. A flush of color stained her cheeks as she rolled her eyes at the youth. "What are you talking about?" she snapped. "I meant that I'll serve him from now on. Where he goes, I'll follow!"
"Hah. You never knew how to suck up to others, but today you learned how to do so. What a sight!"
An old man burst into laughter.
“Who's sucking up to who? I'm telling the truth. Isn't it a good thing that Young
Master Fane helped us so much?’
Sally shot a vicious glare at the old man." Who knows when's the next time we’ll get a chance like this?" she said.
"All right, all right. Young Master Fane has had a long day, and it’s getting late. We’ll go back to rest first before celebrating properly over dinner!"
Lancelot said, chuckling.
"All right. Heh. Today is truly a good day. I haven't heard news like this in a long time. We must celebrate till morning breaks!"
Sally spoke happily, "This way, Young Master Fane. I'll arrange accommodation for you in our house."
"All right. We'll have a good celebration tonight. You young ones should rest properly though. I'll be choosing the talented ones among you. Since your branch family has more members. I'll be selecting three in total. I'll only be selecting two from the smaller branch families!"
Fane nodded his head and announced to everyone.
