I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 108

(play the song) It does give some hints.

*********************** Thank you ILoveBluu25**************************

That was the first time he encountered a mortal who had the guts to crush his pill and even slap him on his face. His pill is one of a kind and it was supposed to be a gift.

The man saw the fox rolling and laughing so hard.

"Do you want to die." The man angrily said. The fox stopped and laughed even more.

The fox was one of the legendary beasts that just recently awakened when one of his comrades also awaked. It seemed like they were all connected somehow. After thousands of years of sleep, this was the first time he ventured out and embarrassingly the first time being trapped.

The man in red then suddenly vanished while the fox was left with his thoughts. When they were in the temple, he cannot erase the face of Sheri. It amused him with the way she acted. One thing he was very surprised is when he attacked her. It results only in a minor injury. If she is an ordinary person she would have died on the spot. Meaning she is not ordinary.

On the other hand, Sheri was furious. Arriving at home, she went directly inside her room and slowly removed her upper garments.

"Next time I will never help any beast." Sheri looked at her chest. Her chest turned blue and it was still aching. She put a cold compress to alleviate the pain. On the next day, she just stayed in her room for recovery.

In the middle of the night, the old woman knocked on her door.

"Ah Mi, are you awake?" The old woman asked.

Ah Mi was awakened and opened her door.

"Yes Auntie Zhang" Sheri answered.

"Ah thank God! One of the children is having a diarrhea and high fever. I don't want to disturb you but she already started to vomit." The old woman explained.

"Who is the one who got sick?" Sheri was fully awake now and asked in concern.

"It's Biyu, the new girl."

Sheri rushed immediately where the children were sleeping. She checked Biyu and made a conclusion that it could be a stomach flu. She asked the old woman to make a chicken soup with no herbs on it. Just chicken with rice and salt would be enough. After a while, the old woman brought the food and Sheri slowly fed the girl. She let the old woman take a rest while she stayed and observed the rest of the kids who were sleeping specially Biyu.

Morning came. Sheri didn't know that she fell asleep. She woke up as she felt someone shook her shoulders. Sheri looked up and saw a small hand playing with her hair.

"How are you feeling Biyu? Are you alright?" Sheri looked at Biyu and asked.

"I'm feeling much better." Biyu meekly answered.

Sheri checked her temperature and her tongue. She then saw a necklace hanging on her neck. It made her curious because she never saw it the time she brought her home.

"Biyu, can you show Auntie Ah Mi what is in your neck?" Sheri slowly and gently asked. Biyu at first hesitated but after a while, she took it out from her neck and let her see it.

As she gave a glance on how it looked like, It made her still.

"Damn" Sheri shockingly muttered.

"What is it Auntie Ah Mi?"

"Nothing sweetheart, just take a rest alright?" Sheri said and handed her back her necklace. Sheri had used modern names to call the children. After making sure Biyu is resting, she went out and her expression immediately changed. No matter how painful her chest was, she decided to go out. She gave an instruction to Aunt Zhang not to let Biyu get out since she was still weak. Aunt Zhang in response nodded her head.

Sheri immediately went to the palace. In Ah Mi's memory, that was the kid that the palace was looking for. Sheri closed her eyes when she found out what happened to the girl according to Ah Mi's memory. It was the talk of the town where even the secluded sects had heard of the story.

Sheri saw the soldier whom she helped before and informed him about the girl. The soldier immediately passed the information to the commander and was soon passed to the eunuch. In the end, the eunuch gave the information to the Emperor.

Learning about it, the Emperor immediately summoned Sheri.

Sheri showed the eunuch her token given to her by the Elder from her sect. The token would give her the privilege of not bowing down to an Emperor or Empress since their position were high according to hierarchy.

When Sheri arrived, she saw another couple who were fidgeting and anxious standing by beside the Emperor. They noticed her entering and the woman rushed to her.

"They told me that you know the location of our daughter. Please, I will reward you as much as I can just to see my daughter again." The woman pleaded desperately.

The man slowly approached Sheri.

"Please, if you know where she is, we will do everything!" The man, together with the woman, asked in a grievance.

"She is with me but first, I want to know how it happened. How was she kidnapped." Sheri was calm as she asked. She already prepared her question. For every child she took in unexpected cases such as this can happen. She wanted to make sure that the child will back safe in sound to a safe family and not some family who were full of schemes.
