Chapter 644 - Slave System (1/2)
“Does he have feelings for Qian’er?”
Gu Bailu wasn’t sure, because Lu Fenying’s att.i.tude did prove that he despised Qian’er and viewed her as a slave.
It was hard for a person with such a lofty att.i.tude to love someone.
But the things he had done also proved that Qian’er was special to him.
It wasn’t just the s.e.x.
If it was s.e.x, he could find another woman to fix the problem and just keep it from Su Muwei.
“I think so. It’s impossible for him to continue sleeping with her for years if he didn’t have some feelings for her.”
Gu Bailu’s eyes glittered. “Then, is it possible for Qian’er…”
“It’s impossible… That’s not enough for Lu Fenying to treat Qian’er better. Unless he loves her deeply, it’s impossible for him to break through the barrier between a n.o.ble and a slave.”
Heavenly Wind Empire was different from Southern Glory Empire.
The n.o.bles of Heavenly Wind Empire all raised slaves from young. The slaves sold their bodies and were marked with the slave mark, their lives wholly given over to their masters.
Taught that their masters were everything since young, these slaves were too scared to resist.
So, in the eyes of their masters, slaves were the lowliest of the low.
If a master developed feelings for a family slave, the n.o.ble bloodline would be ruined and any b.a.s.t.a.r.ds that were produced would be despised.
n.o.ble families of a particular level would never touch their slaves, to say nothing of a n.o.ble like Lu Fenying.
He had touched Qian’er only because she had Dragon Spirit Blood.
Otherwise, he would never have touched her at all.
That was the ingrained mindset of the n.o.bles of Heavenly Wind Empire.
