Chapter 504: Chapter 469, Manpower_2

Yongwang glanced at One-Eye and Bald, and under the seemingly smiling gaze of Defu, neither nodded nor spoke, but quickly lowered his head and left.

“Miss, I’ve brought the man out for you!”

Defu, accompanying Yongwang, arrived before Daohua.

Daohua glanced at Yongwang, then said to Defu with a smile, “Thank you for your trouble.”

Defu immediately responded with a smile, “What are you saying, Miss? It’s my good fortune to be able to assist you. Go ahead and tell me, I’ll take a look around. If there’s anything, just give me a shout, and I’ll come right over.”

Daohua nodded, and once Defu had walked away to speak with the guards, she turned to Yongwang, “Are you alright?”

...

Yongwang shook his head.

Daohua took out an antidote pill, “This is your antidote.”

Yongwang looked at Daohua, then accepted the antidote.

Daohua continued, “Is there anything you need my help with? You’ve helped me before, and as long as it is within my power, I will do my best to fulfill your request as a way of showing my gratitude.”

Yongwang pursed his lips, remained silent for a while, then muttered hesitantly, “Can I follow you?” His voice was quiet and lacking confidence.

Daohua didn’t hear clearly, “What did you say?”

Yongwang mustered his courage, looked up at Daohua, “Miss, I’d like to follow you. I can do anything, endure any hardship, please take me in.”

If it wasn’t for Lord Cao’s reminder, he wouldn’t have dared to make such a request.

Daohua was somewhat surprised; she had thought he would beg her to help him leave this place, but unexpectedly, he wanted to follow her. She pondered for a moment, then asked, “Don’t you want to go home?”

Yongwang gave a bitter smile, “My father and brother have both worked themselves to death at the armory factory, now I’m the only one left in my family.” Seeing Daohua lower her gaze without speaking, he thought for a moment before adding,

“I’ve been educated, can recognize characters, and am good at arithmetic. Over these years in Sishan Village, thanks to Brother Bald’s relationship, I’ve always been helping Lord Cao manage the account books without ever making a mistake.”

Daohua raised an eyebrow, “Is that so?” she said, pausing for a moment, “Let me ask you one question, why did you help me before?”

Yongwang: “…You resemble my benefactor a lot. When I was eleven, I was kidnapped by traffickers in Zhongzhou, and it was a young brother who saved me and others and even gave us silver to go home.”

If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have risked his life to help her.

Daohua was taken aback.

Such a coincidence?

Could it be her?

Daohua scrutinized Yongwang closely, hmm… she truly had no recollection.

With his heart in his throat, Yongwang watched Daohua, extremely worried she wouldn’t agree. In fact, after seeing the Little Prince at the Stone Tomb the night before, he had confirmed that this was indeed his savior.

Now without any family ties, being able to follow his savior would be the greatest blessing for him.

Daohua was silent for a while, “You can follow me, but…”

Yongwang was initially elated, but then tensed up upon hearing the word ‘but’, “But what?”

Daohua said, “I’m not the one who decides this, I have to ask the person in charge of guarding you. If they find you unproblematic and agree to release you, then you can come and find me at the Yan Residence in Ningmen Prefecture.”

Yongwang’s lifted heart settled again, and he replied with a wide grin, “Alright.”
