Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

"Who are you and what are you doing in Brother Ashen's mansion?" Veli's shout reached Ashen's ears who was on his way inside.

He increased his speed to see what was this fuss all about.

"Hmph!" Ling Yun snorted and didn't respond to Veli. She didn't want to introduce herself as Ashen's maid and hence she opted not to respond.

"Hey, are you ignoring me?" Veli's eyes widened as anger within her rose.

"..." Ling Yun turned her face away, not even looking at Veli.

At this moment, Ashen arrived at the scene as he calmed Veli down who was about to pounce at Ling Yun.

"Sister Veli, Calm down. She is the new maid that I've appointed. You don't need to worry about her" Ashen said with a pleasing smile, holding Veli in place.

"Maid?" Veli looked at Ling Yun in disbelief. "B-But isn't she too beautiful for a maid? At first, I thought she was your lover, that's why I got a bit frustrated!"

"Huh? Why would you get frustrated upon knowing that she was my lover?" Ashen asked with a confused expression before widening his eyes in realization: "Wait! Sister Veli, were you jealous?"

"N-No..." She retorted with a flustered but cute expression. She couldn't stop blushing as her cheeks turned red.

Ashen found this reaction a bit cute as he pulled Veli closer to him, leaning close to her face.

He stared into her crystal blue eyes as he said: "You're lying, You were jealous!"

Veli's face turned beet red as her heart started beating at full speed, it seemed as if her heart was going to come out of her chest.

She found herself lost in Ashen's crystal red eyes for a moment before gathering herself as she pushed at Ashen's chest in an attempt to get away.

However, Her attempt was futile as her strength seemed minimal in front of Ashen.

Instead, this scene looked quite comical as Veli tried to push Ashen, however, he wouldn't even budge.

"You want me to release you?" Ashen asked in a soothing voice as Veli felt her heart flutter, however, she gathered the strength to nod lightly!

"Alright, Here you go!" Saying that Ashen released Veli, creating some distance between them.

Ling Yun saw both of them with hatred as she commented: "Adulterous couple!"

However, she didn't know that they weren't even a couple yet.

At this moment, Shiyue entered.

"Huh? Now, Who is this beautiful woman? This young lord sure has beautiful women around him!" Ling Yun thought before leaving for her room. She didn't want to stay here anymore.

Witnessing her leaving without informing her master, Veli complained: "Brother Ashen, This maid sure is rude! See how she left without even greeting the guests or asking for your permission!"

"Ah, Sister Veli, She is new and has no experience as a maid. I'll make sure to teach her later!" Ashen said with a smile before escorting Veli to her room.

"Looks like I'll have to discipline this Ling Yun soon," Ashen thought internally while engaging in short conversations with Veli.

Shiyue, on the other hand, had a grim expression on her face.

Her mother was unconscious with a dangerous insect, capable of taking her life, in her body.

She couldn't even guarantee her sister's safety.

And today, Ashen had ordered her to come to his room alone.

She could already guess what he wanted.

After leaving Veli in her new room, Ashen turned to Shiyue, speaking: "Come, Let's go and see your mother!"

Shiyue had many things to say, however, she decided to say them in his room instead of here and hence she just nodded before following Ashen into his room.

There, on his bed, lay her mother with a calm expression.

There was not a single expression of discomfort on her face and that made Shiyue sigh in relief.

When Ashen told her that this insect didn't harm the host's body without Ashen's permission, she had difficulty believing him, after all, she was only familiar with the demonic slavery insect that would make the life of its host, hell.

At least, one of her worries has lessened with this.

Ashen began moving towards her mother to wake her up.

Noticing this, she shouted: "Stop!"

"What?" Ashen asked in annoyance with a calm voice, turning his face towards Shiyue.

"What are you going to tell her? Are you going to let her leave?" She asked with a worried expression.

"Let her leave?" He gave her a sinister smile. "Never!"

"She is the insurance that you won't go against me and will obey me forever. Why would I let her leave my sight?" He asked with raised eyebrows and an amused smile.

"What? But, she lives in the Bi family house. Do you think the Bi family will let you just keep her here?" She asked with an incredulous expression, expecting to change his mind with the Bi Family's name.

Bi family was a powerful family and Ashen would surely be afraid of them, right?

"Bi Family... That could be a problem" Ashen said with a grim expression as hope shined in Shiyue's eyes. "Yes, that's why you should let her return and I promise that I won't utter a word about your actions and I'll obey your every order"

"I think you misunderstood!" Ashen shook his head as he continued: "Bi could be a problem if I didn't have you under my control, however, now that you obey my every order. I just need you to make an excuse about your mother!" He gave her a clever smile as he finished his sentence.

Shiyue eyes widened as she found his words reasonable. Understanding that her family's name couldn't help her in this situation, she came up with another excuse:

"Ah, What about the sect? The sect doesn't allow family members of the disciples to live with them in the sect!"

She was sure that this would make Ashen retreat and let her mother leave, after all, even when her family was so powerful, her mother couldn't live with them and could only visit them for some hours.

"Ah, the sect..." Ashen revealed a conflicted expression much to the delight of Shiyue, however, before she could celebrate, Ashen crushed her hopes.

"I have a solution for it!" He revealed a sinister smile.

"Do you remember I asked the sect for two maids?" He asked maintaining his smile.

"Yes..." Shiyue answered with a puzzled expression as she thought: "What's that got to do with any of this?"

"There just happens to be an open spot for a maid!" He informed, widening his smile.

"Wait... You don't mean..." Shiyue's eyes widened in shock as a thought crossed her mind.

He couldn't mean that, right?

"If your mother lives here as my maid, the sect shouldn't have a problem, right?" He inquired, wearing a cunning smile.

"What?" Shiyue yelled in denial: "You want my mother to live here as your maid? No way!"

"Hahaha" He laughed loudly before sneering at her: "My naive Shiyue, Do you think you have a choice in the matter? I am not asking you rather I am informing you!"

A look of despair revealed itself on Shiyue's face, finding herself unable to escape from his demonic clutches.

Ashen ignored her as he approached Shiyue's defenseless mother.

Sprinkling some drops of water on her face, he woke her up.

"Ugh..." She groaned, waking up as she held the back of her neck where Ashen struck her.

She rubbed the area before opening her eyes.

Finding an unfamiliar view infront of her, she looked around in panic.

However, as soon as her gaze fell on Shiyue, a relieved happy smile appeared on her face as she rushed towards her: "Shiyue!"

She caressed her cheeks as she asked: "Are you alright? I was so scared when I saw you lying on the ground"

She said with a concerned expression and a worried voice.

"Y-Yes mother, I am alright. You don't need to worry!" Shiyue answered with a fake smile, not wanting to see her mother hurt.

Getting her daughter's answer, a bright smile appeared on her face.

After she was sure that her daughter was alright, the unfamiliar room came to her notice as she asked: "Shiyue, Where is this place and How did I get here? Also, why were you lying on the ground earlier?"

"Ah, mother... this" Shiyue tried to come up with an excuse.

"Hello Mam, This is my house! Earlier, Sister Shiyue fell unconscious while talking to me and then you appeared. I was afraid that you would misunderstand the situation, so I knocked you unconscious and brought you and Sister Shiyue here!" At this moment, Ashen came to her rescue.

Shiyue's mother looked at Ashen, remembering him visiting Shiyue's house before.

A frown appeared on her face as she asked: "Who are you?"

"Mam, My name is Wang Ashen. The disciple of Sect Leader Feng Xue!" Ashen introduced himself along with his status.

"Yes Mother, he is the disciple who had awakened an 8-star spirit!" Shiyue also added.

"Ah, so he is young master Ashen. Forgive me for talking to you rudely!" She apologized with a bow as the view of her big bust became clear to Ashen, arousing his dragon.

"No Problem, No Problem! Mam, Sister Shiyue told me that you wanted to live with them, but the sect didn't allow you to. Is that correct?" Ashen asked with a polite smile.

Shiyue's mother's eyes widened in astonishment as she looked at Shiyue and Ashen with surprise. She hadn't expected Ashen to be so close to Shiyue that she would tell him something this personal.

However, ignoring this, she nodded in answer.

A delighted expression appeared on Ashen's face as he continued: "Mam, I have found a way for you to live with Sister Shiyue and Sister Veli in the sect together!"

"What? Really?" Shiyue's mother asked with an excited expression: "Tell me, what is this way that you speak of?"

Wearing a clever smile, Ashen declared: "Become my maid and Live here with me!"

"Huh?"
