"Don't worry about me, Bai is inside, you guys go in." Marisa said in a muffled voice.

"You weren't beaten to tears by that guy, were you?" Remlia was a little surprised. Marisa's voice didn't sound normal.

"No!"

"Ha...hahaha, I didn't expect that a black and white mouse like you would have such a day. Not bad, not bad. Seeing you like this makes me feel much better." Remlia finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Let's go, Sakuya. We can't get anything out of her like this. Let's go in and find that guy. I really want to know what he did to make Marisa become like this. Maybe I can learn something from him."

"Yes, Miss."

Sakuya looked at Marisa with some pity, then followed Remi in. Hong Meiling hesitated for a moment, put some fruits in front of Marisa, and followed.

"See, Tianyi, now you know what Marisa is like usually." Bai smiled gently and poured a cup of tea in front of the two of them.

"Marisa..." Tianyi hesitated but didn't say anything.

Although she had spent some time with Marisa, she certainly didn't know as much as the locals like Remi. They should know Marisa's personality better.

As for the current situation, I'll ask again later.

He reached out to pick up the tea in front of him and was about to take a sip to temporarily forget about this matter, but the hand holding the teacup suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Tianyi turned her gaze to Bai and asked cautiously, "Bai, you didn't leave Marisa out on purpose to let Remlia cool down, did you?"

Bai's arm holding the teacup suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Chapter 8: Visit to the Scarlet Devil Mansion

A seemingly casual remark struck Bai's heart.

But before Shiro could respond, his savior arrived.

The door was pushed open by the head maid, and a petite figure walked in with brisk steps.

"Hey, well, Xiao Baizi, since you're back, why didn't you come to visit me first?" Remlia skillfully jumped onto the sofa opposite Bai, looking at the surrounding scene with interest.

This was her first time at Bai's house, and the decorations weren't as gorgeous as she had imagined, but that was within her expectations.

When she had been in contact with Bai before, she had seen Bai forget to eat because he was obsessed with cultivation. At that time, Bai had just gained his abilities and his body was still human.

But how could a guy who even forgets to eat pay too much attention to housing? I'm afraid having a place to live is enough.

Leimi was right about this. At that time, Luo Bai had difficulty even protecting himself here, so how could he possibly have the mind to care about living matters.

It's livable and acceptable, that's enough.

As for wanting to change it now, it’s not impossible, but you’ve lived here for such a long time, and if you make changes rashly, you’ll still feel a little uncomfortable.

and......

"What the hell is Xiaobaizi, Remi? I don't remember having such a nickname. Can't you just call me Bai?" Bai couldn't help but complain.

As long as the name is not too extreme, he can accept even some nicknames, but he is absolutely unwilling to accept this name that symbolizes eunuch in some TV dramas.

"Ha, I even lowered myself to ask how servants are addressed in China, and you're still unwilling to accept it?!" Remlia was a little dissatisfied. She wanted to stand on the sofa but found that she was still wearing shoes. She could only glare at Bai angrily.

"Miss, I have a name. My name is Hong..." Hong Meiling tried to remind Remi behind her, but was interrupted without hesitation.

"Shut up, China!" Remlia said without turning her head.

"Yes." Hong Meiling responded quickly and shut her mouth obediently.

"Remi, think carefully about when Meiling was born. The place I used to live in may not be as bad as the outside world here, but it's not much different. How could I possibly accept such an ancient name?"

Bai Yu explained to Remlia earnestly, trying to make this "old thing" from the old times recognize the difference between the past and the present.

"Really?" Remlia glanced at Shiro in surprise, then turned to Hong Meiling and asked, "China, how long has it been since you mentioned that name?"

"I'm not sure about that, but it should be several hundred years." Meiling shook her head.

She couldn't remember how far away from the present she lived, but she was already several hundred years old, and had been with Remi and the others for several hundred years, so it was almost several hundred years away from now.

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?!" Remlia complained dissatisfiedly, and her eyes moved to Luo Bai again.

Hong Meiling muttered quietly in the back: "You didn't ask me..."

Just as she was about to continue complaining, she suddenly felt a cold gaze. She glanced to the side and saw Sakuya looking at her expressionlessly.

Then Hong Meiling immediately closed her mouth and drew a line on her lips with her finger, indicating that she would never speak again.

Sakuya nodded slightly.

Normally, it would be fine if Hong Meiling complained in private, and she could pretend not to see it, but now there were other people present, how could she continue to say bad things to destroy Remi's reputation.

"Okay, then I'll just call you Bai as you said.

Now you should answer why you didn't come to me directly?"

Remlia nodded slightly, her eyes fixed on the black tea on the table in front of her.

"Because it's daytime now, Remi, don't you usually rest during the day and be energetic at night? I thought you might still be resting, so I didn't disturb you."

"Well, it's nice of you to think that way, but do you know that your fight with that black and white rat has affected me?"

Hearing Bai's answer, Remlia nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at Marisa who was squatting outside the door.

"You can't blame me for this. Marisa came to me and said she wanted to fight me. If I had refused, she wouldn't have let me rest properly for the next few days."

"That's true."

Recalling how Marisa ignored everything when she got excited, Remlia didn't doubt the truth of Shiro's words.

"Forget it. In that case, I won't pursue this matter with you. Aren't you going to hold a banquet in three days? I'll come and support you then."

After learning the truth of the matter, Remlia seemed to be in a much better mood. She jumped off the sofa lightly and wanted to leave immediately.

Unfortunately, he stopped again because of Bai's words.

"Thank you, Remi."

"You're welcome. After all, you're still a member of our Scarlet Devil Mansion..."

As she spoke, Remlia seemed to sense that something was wrong and turned around, staring straight at Bai.

"What did you call me just now?"

"Remi?" Bai was a little confused. Hadn't he called her that from the beginning? Remlia didn't refuse. Was there any problem now?

"Sakuya!" Remilia whispered.

"Yes!" Sakuya responded, and her figure appeared behind Bai, with her hands on Bai's shoulders, but her eyes were a little surprised.

Remlia didn't notice this detail. She came to Bai while humming softly, and then slapped Bai's legs with her hands.

"I am the master of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, the ever-crimson Little Moon, the lord of vampires. How dare you call me that?!"

Although the words were said in an angry tone, coupled with Remlia's petite reminder and childish face, it gave Bai a cute feeling, as if she was acting coquettishly towards him.

There seemed to be a different impulse in his heart, and Bai raised his palm and rubbed Remlia's head.

Then she felt an increasing strength coming from her shoulders, and Remlia was stunned.

An unknown sense of shame rose from her heart, and Remlia's face suddenly turned red. She clenched her palms, and a blood-red spear appeared in her hand.

"How dare you treat me like this, you bastard? Die!"

The scarlet spear went towards Bai's face, but stopped when it was about to touch Bai.

"I can solve Fran's mental problems." Bai said with a smile.

"What did you say?!"

"I told you I can handle Fran's problem," Bai repeated, moving the spear away from his face.

The spear dissipated from her hand, and Remlia leaped onto Bai's legs with a serious look in her eyes.

"You better not lie to me."

"Of course not." Bai smiled gently.

Chapter 9: A Member of the Scarlet Devil Mansion

The candlelight illuminated the shadowy stairs, casting the shadows of three people on the ground.

Back to the basement again, but this time not to study.

"If I take care of Fran's problem, Remi, please don't worry about the name, okay?"

"You solve it first." Remlia responded sullenly.

She was thinking about how to punish Bai for his disrespect, but then Bai revealed this news. How could she bring herself to do it?

Even if there was only a slight possibility that what Bai said was true, she was unwilling to let it go.

Flandre's full name is Flandre Scarlet. She is her younger sister and has the ability to easily destroy everything.

In Fran's eyes, everything in the world has an existence called "eyes", and Fran can easily move the "eyes" of anything into her hand, and with a light squeeze, the "eyes" will explode along with the corresponding part of the object, even humans and monsters are no exception.

Having such a powerful ability should be a happy thing, but unfortunately, Fran is too young and does not have the mind to match this ability.

Sometimes she simply wanted to find someone to play with, but she accidentally broke her friend's eyes, resulting in no creature being willing to approach her.

After learning about this, Remi, who couldn't bear to see Fran get hurt again, locked her up in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and it has been hundreds of years since then.

During this period, she also tried many ways to help Fran, but unfortunately, they were all useless. Even Patchouli, who was known as the immovable library, was helpless.

Now that so much time has passed, and Remi, who has even tacitly accepted that Fran's situation can only be resolved later, suddenly heard Bai's proposal.

He can solve Fran's problem!

When she thought of this, Remi couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Why didn't he tell her earlier or later, but waited until she was angry to tell her? Could it be that he wanted to see her angry on purpose?

She remembered that Bai Ke didn't have this kind of personality before. What had he done during these few months away? He had changed so much.

Seeing Remi looking unhappy, Sakuya walked closer and asked softly.

"Miss, are you okay? If you feel uncomfortable, you can go and rest first. I will help you watch him."

"I'm fine, Sakuya, I'm just a little upset." Remi rolled her eyes and shook her head slightly. "It's better for me to personally see to Fran's affairs."

It's not that she doesn't want to believe Sakuya, but she can't be completely at ease once she comes into contact with things related to Fran. Even if she knows that there will be no accidents, she still wants to be there in person.

"I understand, Miss. I'll go get you some tea."

"Well, thank you for your help, Sakuya."

Sakuya knew why Remlia was unhappy, after all, she was watching there.

And not to mention Remlia being unhappy, even she was a little unhappy, or rather envious.

The eldest lady's head has never been touched by her, the person who is always by her side, and she was snatched away by Bai. It's so enviable... No, it's infuriating.

But now, because of Fran, no matter what Bai did before, they can only endure it temporarily, and everything has to wait until Bai does what he said.

She couldn't appease Remlia's unhappy mood for the time being, but she could use other ways to help Remlia change her mood, such as drinking her favorite tea.

Remlia was thinking about the problem and didn't speak. Bai didn't continue to provoke her. The two of them gradually walked towards the basement.

The deeper they went, the brighter the lights became. Bai passed by the door of the library but did not go in to check.

The main thing now is to solve Fran’s problem. It won’t have any impact if we go there when she comes out.

Patchouli helped him so much when he was weak, and now it's time for some change.

After a slight hesitation, they walked through the library and came to the deepest part of the basement, in front of an ordinary-looking door.

Remlia stopped and looked up at Shiro.

"Hey, Bai, can Fran's problem really be solved?"

"Don't worry, Miss. I've never lied to you, have I?" Bai smiled gently. "Just leave Fran to me. I'll definitely give her back to you in good health."

"Well, I believe you." Remlia nodded slightly.

She just looks small, but not stupid.

Before Bai left, it seemed that his strength was equal to hers, but at that time he was already vaguely able to surpass her. Now that they have been walking for such a long time, even if he didn't show it, Bai's strength is definitely stronger than hers.

And it's not just because of her strength. She could vaguely see Bai's fate before, but since Bai came back, she didn't even dare to look at Bai's fate anymore.

Something seemed to be telling her that if she insisted on going to see it, she would not be able to accept even the lightest consequence easily.
