Upon hearing what she said, I couldn't help but chuckle softly. She couldn't even protect herself, so what could she possibly use to repay me? Surely, it won't be as the blind storyteller says, by offering herself, right?
Thinking about this, I couldn't resist appraising her.
I must say, this Third Young Lady is quite decent looking. Her features are delicate and well-proportioned, and her calm eyes are serene like still water. Though she is quite a step below the girls in our home, for a girl to grow up with such looks, she could indeed be considered a beautiful person.
The Third Young Lady noticed my gaze, her face reddened slightly, and she said earnestly, "Young Master, please don't misconstrue my words. What I refer to as repayment is not anything else but a piece of information. I believe that Young Master will benefit from it, so this transaction is not unfavorable for you."
