The smile on Lin Xiaofei\'s lips stayed for a little longer as she waited for the middle-aged woman to bend her knees and bow down to her.

As Qu Xing Xu had said, she is now his fiance and according to their contract, they will have to marry which will lead her to become the Duchess of Xin.

"Well?" Lin Xiaofei casually said as she waited for Bai Feng Jiu to bend her knees.

With an ugly face, Bai Feng Jiu looked back and forth from Qu Xing Xu to Lin Xiaofei. She didn\'t want to bow down to a young lady who had just arrived at the Qu residence. Her origin was also quite questionable and who knows what kind of trick did she use to charm Qu Xing Xu.

Was it because of her face? Bai Feng Jiu thought as she slowly bent her knees. "Greetings, my lady."

"Wrong." Qu Xing Xu tut before he smilingly said, "It\'s Duchess, Lady Bai.."

Bai Feng Jiu gritted her teeth and forced out the word out of her mouth, "Greetings, Duchess."

Just hearing it from her own mouth, Bai Feng Jiu wished she could faint at this point. She really didn\'t like calling someone else Duchess, especially, when it was the title that she wished she could covet.

Unfortunately, the man she married didn\'t get to become the Duke in time. He died even before he could get the title from the previous Duke, Duke Qu Chuxiao who was Qu Xing Xu\'s grandfather.

Even the mother of Qu Xing Xu wasn\'t able to get it because of early death after giving birth so, how can she just let anyone get the title from her?

She could forgive and forget her desire for the title as the Duchess of Xin if her littler sister manages to get it. However, even after a few years of staying inside the Qu residence, Bai Jia Li still hasn\'t shown any progress.

Looking up at the beautiful young lady before her, Bai Feng Jiu flashed a fake smile to her to which Lin Xiaofei returned with a gentle smile that didn\'t reach her eyes at all.

"It is good to meet you, Lady Bai." Said Lin Xiaofei while knowing what that hateful and fake smile looked.

She stayed not too long and not too short inside Yu Fangzhu\'s inner courtyard that was filled with beauties and venom. The words and schemes that she had to experience under these beauties who were vying for favors from Yu Fangzhu, Lin Xiaofei could say that she was quite adept and a master in handling these kinds of situations.

Bai Feng Jiu might have already stayed and put her mark in the Qu residence but that didn\'t mean, Lin Xiaofei would let her look down on her. She could only wish that Bai Feng Jiu is as sensible as Wu Jin Yan and not go against her.

Or else, Lin Xiaofei wouldn\'t be so sure when the rumor about the mysterious death of the mistress of her fiance\'s father will shake the entire empire.

"And who might this young lady beside Lady Bai?" Lin Xiaofei asked as she used her eyes to look at Bai Jia Li who stayed silent and only supported Lady Bai.

Bai Feng Jiu finally could show her genuine smile and made Bai Jia Li stand before her. She then said, "This is my little sister, Bai Jia Li. She\'s been living in here for a long time now and accompanied both Qu Xing Xu and me in here."

Upon hearing this, Qu Xing Xu was the first one to frown. The way Bai Feng Jiu said those words, it would lead to a few misunderstandings.

He didn\'t have any reason to like these two sisters who had been acting haughtily like they were one of the masters in the residence and tried to use the authority that he let them have to abuse their powers to do whatever they want.

He had been quite lenient towards them as they weren\'t worth his attention to deal with them but if they try to sabotage his plans in snatching Lin Xiaofei\'s heart, he might have to let them taste the same endings as the ladies whom he killed without any hesitations.

Bai Feng Jiu had a lot of expectations on her that Lin Xiaofei was feeling bored. She was disappointed that this was the first thing that the Bai sisters could do in their first meeting. Compared to how she suffered to battle with her other sisters in Yu Fangzhu\'s residence, Bai Feng Jiu and Bai Jia Li will never be such a handful to her.

Their methods were far too simple and their train of thoughts was too easy for her to guess.

Sighing softly, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t plan to look at Qu Xing Xu but upon looking up randomly, she saw him staring at her with a subtle earnest look in his eyes.

This guy… was he also expecting her to be jealous of what Lady Bai said? Thought Lin Xiaofei.

Closing her eyes, Lin Xiaofei suddenly felt tired. She hasn\'t even stayed for even an hour in the Qu residence and yet, she felt like she\'s been awake for a week now.

"Is that so... That is quite nice of you, Miss Bai." Lin Xiaofei simply said without any emotions in her tone.

"Thank you, Duchess." Bai Jia Li was smart enough to call her by her title. Although she was still reluctant to call Lin Xiaofei the Duchess, Bai Jia Li can\'t act like her elder sister and look stupid in front of Qu Xing Xu.

"But I don\'t quite understand why must you stay here for long. Lady Bai doesn\'t look like she\'s missing a few maids to help her." Lin Xiaofei put on a curious look on her face before turning to look at Qu Xing Xu who was satisfied with her.

"Perhaps, Miss Bai wishes to become a maid in the future." Qu Xing Xu met Lin Xiaofei\'s eyes.
