Chapter 41 -041 Swear Loyalty unto Death
Lina’s reaction made Lin Fu realize that her conjecture might have been wrong, even completely off base. Suddenly, her heart stirred, “Do you suspect that Ding Xuan was killed by me?”
“Sorry, I shouldn’t have speculated recklessly.” Lina hadn’t expected Lin Fu to be so perceptive, which raised her respect and obedience to Lin Fu by another level.

“So you did suspect this, but why didn’t you suspect it was the Major General who did it?” Lin Fu asked curiously.
“If the Major General had acted, he surely wouldn’t have done it in a way that even a mere maid like me would know. Besides, the Major General doesn’t need to resort to assassination, a method so underhanded.”
For Major General Fu Xing, killing was simple; he had even killed people at the front gates of the Military Department.
Assassination was an insult to him.
“So it is, I thought it was because the Major General valued his family and, considering Admiral Fu Guang’s face, also thought he wouldn’t let Ding Xuan die.”
Lina showed a hint of difficulty, hesitated and then said, “That can be said, but it also depends on the situation. Major General Fu Xing is an outstanding military leader, but he is also one of the Seven Guardian Dukes, a noble and a politician. The families of the Seven Guardian Dukes, with their ancient inheritances, have weathered countless bloody and brutal coups and remain unswayed by kinship or love.”
“All you’re saying, in the end, is that I shouldn’t really fall in love, right?”
Lin Fu stood up, looking down at Lina from a higher position.
“Lina has now sided with the Lady, and belongs to the Lady, not the Major General. If the Lady fails or dies in the future, I surely won’t survive,” Lina said respectfully.
“You, are, good.”
Lin Fu spoke deliberately, “I didn’t plead with others in vain. Next, I need you to help me understand the complex relationships hidden beneath the calm surface of the Fu Family. Who is useful to me, who is not, who can be used, who is hostile towards me, who has conflicts of interest with me.”
“I will, but I…”
“Don’t have the money, right?”
“Yes, to do these things, I need to interact with people and even bribe some inconspicuous servants. I haven’t done this before and still need to learn.”
Lin Fu opened her account, which contained ten million Imperial Coins given by her adoptive father when she left home.
Supposedly as a dowry.
There was also a gold card, with a monthly quota of five million Imperial Coins. After comparing with the current prices, she found it was roughly equivalent to the purchasing power of Earth’s era. Only Capital Star was expensive, with prices ten times higher than other planets.
Usually, a normal meal for one person cost six hundred Imperial Coins, and a luxurious one would cost a thousand.
This was just the spending level for ordinary people; for Military Academy Students, it was a completely different matter.
For instance, at the Land War Academy, because the canteen served mutant beast, a rare ingredient, refilling a meal card each semester cost no less than ten million Imperial Coins. If you were poor, you couldn’t afford it; hence your physical condition would lag far behind those from wealthier backgrounds.
Not to mention purchasing Battle Armor and military-issued weapons.
“Here’s one million as start-up funds. As for how operations proceed, submit a report to my email for reimbursement.”
“Yes.”
After the transfer, Lin Fu’s gaze pressuring Lina, she said seriously, “Lina, I came to Capital Star to survive, and so did you. In the future, I hope we can be collaborators who progress together. I can see the ambition in your eyes, you are being driven not by money but by your desire to escape a life destined to be a maid’s.”
“May the future show that I have not failed your ambition, nor you my trust.”
This was her acknowledgment.
Trembling and emotional, Lina bowed deeply and said, “Lina swears loyalty unto death, to advance ahead for Miss Lin Fu.”
Two young girls, at this moment, forged a vow for a lifetime.
In the future, when Lina stood beside the most revered woman in All Star, looking back, she would be immensely grateful for her own luck.
