Gu Yue felt the hairs on his body stand on end. Lost in lust, he instantly snapped out of it and hurriedly explained, "Junior sister, I was just confused and didn't mean to offend you."

Qiu Honglei's voice turned cold as she put away the bright yellow lantern: "If there is a next time, don't blame me for not showing any kinship."

"Yes, yes, this was an accident, there will definitely not be a next time." Gu Yue broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly retreated. Although the two were separated by a screen, he still kept his head down as much as possible to avoid angering her and causing her to attack.

Despite having overestimated her abilities as much as possible, I never expected her to be so formidable.

And what's with this lantern? Did Master give it to her?

Master is really biased!

Thinking back to how he had tried to flirt with the other person several times before, he secretly wiped away a cold sweat.

However, I was also a little puzzled. Usually, when I teased her a little, she would always respond with a smile. Why was she suddenly so angry today?

"There's one more thing. In the future, if you want to run away, just run away. Don't do things like using your own people as shields." Qiu Honglei snorted coldly, clearly extremely dissatisfied with his behavior on the ship just now.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll definitely do it next time." Gu Yue nodded hurriedly.

In his heart, however, he was full of complaints. If you are so powerful, why didn't you just make a move on the ship? If the two of us joined forces, we would not have needed to run away in such a sorry state when facing Chen Xuan.

Of course, he only dared to think these things in his heart and never dared to show them in the slightest.

"Go down." Qiu Honglei waved her hand, clearly not in the mood to pay him any more attention.

Gu Yue felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly ran out.

Qiu Honglei played with the conch shell in her hand, and a smile returned to her face.

This time it was all Chen Xuan's fault for intervening halfway and ruining everything, but overall it was still good because she was certain that the man was worth her bet on.

"Achoo~" Zuan returned to the Chu family and couldn't help but sneeze when the cold wind blew on him.

He went back inside to find a clean set of clothes to change into before heading to Chu Chuyan's boudoir.

"I wonder if she still remembers to leave the door open for me." Zu An looked up at the sky; the bright moon hung high, and it was already late.

Qin Wanru sneaked into Chu Chuyan's courtyard. Because of the previous incident of a powerful figure breaking in, Qin Wanru had increased the number of guards.

Logically speaking, the current defenses shouldn't be able to let even a fly get in. However, Zaun has an improved and enhanced version of "Sunflower Illusion," and sometimes when it's really impossible to dodge, they can just summon the "Great Wind" skill to teleport over, and end up sneaking in.

"What kind of world is this! Entering your own wife's room like you're doing something wrong!"

Zuan was furious.

Arriving at the agreed-upon window, Zuan noticed that the lights inside were off.

"Chu Yan's wife is indeed delicate-skinned; she's worried that the lights might be on and people outside will see her."

He looked around to make sure no one was nearby.

Then he placed his hand on the window and gently pushed it open.

Huh?

Why can't I push it?

Zuan, refusing to believe in superstition, increased his strength.

Unfortunately, it still didn't budge.

"Could it be that I remembered the wrong window?"

Thinking back to their previous conversation with Chu Chuyan, perhaps the two of them misunderstood which door the other was referring to.

He hurriedly tried to push open another window, but it still wouldn't budge.

What the heck?

I tried opening all the windows, but none of them were open.

Zuan's face instantly fell. What happened to the agreement?!

He resisted the temptation and turned down Qiu Honglei's invitation, and this is what he got in return?

After thinking it over, I realized that Chu Chuyan was probably just too shy and might not have been used to it at first.

However, the first few days are the most crucial step in expelling cold from the body, so don't delay.

He didn't dare call out to Chu Chuyan, worried that it would alert the guards outside. So he took out a dagger, gently inserted it into the crack in the window, and moved the latch aside.

He tiptoed inside and closed the window again.

"Why do I feel like I'm doing something wrong?"

This is clearly his wife's room!

Zuan felt a surge of displeasure and straightened up, his body, which had been hunched over.

Walking towards the bed, I could vaguely see a beautiful, graceful body lying on its side with its back to the outside.

"That woman is really unruly if you don't discipline her for three days, she'll be tearing the roof off! Look at Qiu Honglei, how tender and affectionate she is!"

Thinking that Chu Chuyan had clearly promised to leave the door open for him but then went back on her word, Zu An felt a surge of anger and thought he needed to assert his authority as a husband.

Without saying a word, he crawled into bed and hugged her tightly.

Anyway, the two had had the most intimate and deep exchange in the secret realm before, and later when Chu Chuyan was healing, she also took off her clothes and showed them to him.

He felt he should be more proactive; perhaps the other person was no longer so resistant to him.

The place he touched was filled with the warmth and softness of a beautiful woman, but Zu An was a little puzzled. How could Chu Yan's body have become so plump in just half a day?

"Yan'er, stop fooling around~"

The beauty in his arms suddenly shifted her body, as if she were muttering in her sleep.

"???"

Zu An was terrified, because the voice was clearly Qin Wanru's!

Just then, Qin Wanru seemed to sense something was wrong, and woke up groggily, about to turn around to check.

Suddenly, a slender, green finger reached out from the side and pressed her pressure point.

Qin Wanru hummed in agreement, then drifted back into a deep sleep.

A slender and graceful figure sat up from the side, revealing a pretty face that was both charming and coquettish. Who else could it be but Chu Chuyan?

Zu An was completely bewildered, looking down at the woman in his arms. She was clearly more voluptuous and beautiful than his wife; who else could it be but Qin Wanru?
