Male lead and I discuss the means to find out about his 'role'. It's agreed upon that I will stick to him, more closely than usual, to faint.
My identify cheat is not fully explained to him. The excuse is that I have divination power. LOL.
With male lead bringing smelling salts around to wake me up regularly, we both form a great dislike towards salts. For various reasons.
I get some warnings to keep my distance from Third Master. Troubled, I stop hovering around male lead inside the house, since I have gone all over the places and find no clue anyway.
Maybe because there are no clues inside, Third Master gets the permission to take me outside with him.
"We clearly have a master and servant relationship. Yet, somehow, it is seen as something ambiguous," I solemnly tell Old Master who calls me to his study to question me
"Do you hold no feelings towards your Third Master?" the tone Old Master uses is slightly weird
"No other feelings that cross the boundary," I reply respectfully
Knowing male lead will be with the female lead, I really hold no feeling or hope I shouldn't have.
