('Ma Qing looked at Hayate with eyes'

"I'll watch my back then," Hayate blinked twice. "But I don't think I can break my deal with her just yet." He wondered just how bad Xue had to be to have even a senior servant dislike her. His mind wandered into various places, wondering as to why they fed Princess Xue differently than everyone else, especially the heiress Yugu.

Yugu looked at Ming and said simply, "The pain we feel when looking Xue in the eyes...I've always believed it's like just peeking through a window: a window into her world. True I have animosity towards her, but even she's just trying to get by, just like the rest of us." She looked out at Ma Qing and Hayate again. "And don't worry, Ming. I'll keep an eye out on our servant. In fact, I can bring him here now. Is there anything I can break?"
