She was supposed to be a favored daughter of the heavens, destined for great achievements with her talent.

  But now, she could only be here, existing as something akin to a maid.

  This drastic fall from grace made Yue Mingkong feel uncomfortable.

  In the past, she was at least free and unrestrained, not bound by so many restrictions, but now everything was different.

  From now on, she had to serve Ye Yun with all her heart and forget her identity as a favored daughter of the heavens.

  Even if she was in a foul mood, Yue Mingkong had to endure it and absolutely couldn't act recklessly.

  Otherwise, if she upset Ye Yun, it wouldn't just be her who suffered, but her entire family as well.

  Seeing Yue Mingkong standing behind Xia He and Qiu Lan, looking slightly conflicted, Ye Yun could already guess that Yue Mingkong must have heard something from his two maids.

  A once proud daughter of the heavens, now reduced to such a state, Yue Mingkong, with her pride, was naturally somewhat dissatisfied.

  But now, she could only endure it.

  "Mingkong, come here."

  Ye Yun gently beckoned.

  Hearing his voice, Yue Mingkong saw Ye Yun gesturing to her. She hesitated for a moment but eventually walked over.

  "Young Master, is there anything you need?"

  Indeed, she no longer dared to call Ye Yun by his name directly.

  Earlier, Xia He had specifically reminded Yue Mingkong not to address Ye Yun by his name directly, as it would be considered highly disrespectful.

  Thinking about her current situation and experiences, Yue Mingkong could only grit her teeth and endure it.

  Ye Yun didn't pay much attention to Yue Mingkong's slightly conflicted expression and instead asked, "Do you know someone named Yue Qingshan?"

  Earlier, he had gained two hundred Vilin Points from someone named Yue Qingshan, who was also from the Yue Family, so Yue Mingkong should know him.

  That's why Ye Yun suddenly asked this question.

  When she heard the name Yue Qingshan, Yue Mingkong was slightly taken aback.

  She didn't quite understand why Ye Yun would know about Yue Qingshan.

  Although Yue Qingshan was a talented individual who had reached the Divine Power Late Stage in a short time, and if he had started cultivating at the same time as her, his cultivation might not be weaker than hers.

  But even so, he shouldn't have attracted the attention of Ye Yun, the Young Master of the Ye Family.

  Unable to figure it out for the moment, Yue Mingkong honestly told Ye Yun everything she knew about Yue Qingshan.

  "Young Master, Yue Qingshan is a member of our Yue Family. He had average talent as a child and wasn't particurly outstanding in cultivation.

  But in recent years, he has risen rapidly, and his cultivation speed has been astonishing, earning high praise within the family.

  He is now at the Divine Power Late Stage and is considered a favored son of the heavens among the younger generation in the family."

  After hearing this brief introduction, Ye Yun realized that Yue Qingshan must have obtained something significant.

  Otherwise, how could an ordinary boy become a favored son of the heavens?

  As expected of Fortune's Son, but what exactly is his golden finger?

  Yue Mingkong's golden finger was her past life memories and powerful cultivation techniques that would awaken when she turned twenty-two.

  But Yue Qingshan was already rising, unlike Yue Mingkong.

  Yue Mingkong suddenly remembered what Yue Qingshan had said when he came to rescue her that night.

  So, she truthfully reyed this to Ye Yun.

  "Also, Young Master, before I was sent here, Yue Qingshan wanted to take me away with him, but I didn't agree at the time.

  When he left, he said he would definitely defeat you and then take me away."

  Yue Qingshan probably never imagined that the Yue Mingkong he longed for would tell Ye Yun everything about him without hesitation.

  If he knew, he might be so angry that he'd spit blood.

  While Yue Qingshan was in seclusion, trying to break through to the Dao Comprehension Realm, he suddenly felt a twitch in his heart, as if something bad was happening.

  He frowned slightly, but he didn't have time to think too much about it; he had to focus on breaking through.

  Back with Ye Yun, after learning the situation from Yue Mingkong, a faint smile appeared on his face.

  So Yue Qingshan was Fortune's Son, and he actually liked a Fortune's Daughter. If it weren't for his arrival, who knows what sparks might have flown between them in the future.

  But unfortunately, he was here, and Yue Qingshan wouldn't have that chance.

  Ye Yun checked Yue Mingkong's personal information and found that, at the bottom of the information panel, there was a Loyalty score just like Xia He and the others.

  However, unlike Xia He and the others, who had a Loyalty score of one hundred, Yue Mingkong's was only twenty.

  Compared to having none initially, having twenty points now was already quite good.

  These twenty Loyalty points were due to the psychological pressure Ye Yun had caused Yue Mingkong when he forcibly kissed her in the great hall earlier.

  Looking at Yue Mingkong in front of him, Ye Yun gently lifted her chin.

  His dark eyes met Yue Mingkong's beautiful eyes, and Ye Yun smiled.

  "It seems... this Yue Qingshan has quite a fondness for you, Mingkong?"

  For some reason, when she saw Ye Yun's smile, Yue Mingkong suddenly felt a tightness in her heart.

  She thought Ye Yun might have misunderstood her retionship with Yue Qingshan and quickly expined.

  "No, Young Master, Yue Qingshan and I just know each other, nothing more. We've hardly even met."

  After spending a short time with Ye Yun, Yue Mingkong couldn't quite grasp his temperament and didn't want to anger him.

  If she angered Ye Yun, her future days would likely be difficult.

  Seeing Yue Mingkong's nervous expression, Ye Yun chuckled softly.

  "Hehe! No need to be so nervous. I was just asking about your retionship, that's all. Why are you so tense?"

  Saying this, Ye Yun released his grip on Yue Mingkong.

  From the beginning, he had known that Yue Mingkong and Yue Qingshan's retionship was likely ordinary. The future was uncertain, but at least for now, it was like this.

  More likely, it was Yue Qingshan's one-sided wishful thinking, believing that Yue Mingkong would willingly leave with him.

  Freed from his grasp, Yue Mingkong lowered her head slightly, her small hands nervously entwined.

  "Ding! The master's assertiveness has made Yue Mingkong feel intimidated, increasing her Loyalty by five points."

  Unexpectedly, just by asking a question, Yue Mingkong's Loyalty increased by five points.

  Now, Yue Mingkong's Loyalty had reached twenty-five points.

  Although five points weren't much, considering it was only the first day, having twenty-five points was already quite good.
