Zuan secretly marveled at how skilled Nanxun was. In particular, she appeared noble and aloof in public, but was as docile and warm as a kitten in front of him. The contrast between her public and private personas was something even a seasoned driver like Zuan couldn't quite grasp.

Just then, Chu Youzhao's voice came from outside: "Brother-in-law, the boat is about to set sail, why aren't you coming out yet?"

Kong Nanwu took the opportunity to kick Zu An out, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble the coquettish Nanxun would have caused.

After Zu An left, Nan Xun, who had been alluring, immediately reverted to her usual aloofness and sat properly in her chair.

"What, not horny anymore?" Kong Nanwu sneered.

Nanxun ran over and massaged her back: "I'm just following Miss's orders, trying to seduce him."

"Really? You seem to be enjoying yourself." Kong Nanwu said expressionlessly.

"Absolutely not. My loyalty to you, Miss, is as clear as day. If I had any disloyal thoughts, even as a ghost, I wouldn't be at peace." Nan Xun patted her chest and assured him, her breasts heaving.

"You were a ghost to begin with!" Kong Nanwu was so angry she laughed.

After the two women played around for a while, Kong Nanwu regained her usual seriousness: "After you go back, you should copy down 'Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio' and then submit it to the publishing house for publication and distribution."

Nanxun hesitated, "I doubt any publishing house would dare to print this kind of book."

The various supernatural stories in the book easily evoke associations with demons, inevitably leading to taboos.

"Why don't you go through the black market?" Kong Nanwu said irritably. "Don't use official channels. Let it circulate among the common people first, and subtly change their stereotypical bad impression of the demon race."

"Miss is indeed brilliant..." Nanxun flattered her, "So, who should the author write about? Should we leave a mark for Young Master Zu?"

Kong Nanwu hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: "Forget it, this book is likely to cause trouble, so let's not let it have any impact on him."

Nanxun was delighted: "It seems that Miss cares about Young Master quite a bit."

Kong Nanwu's eyes turned dangerous: "Stop with your little schemes. I'm asking you to seduce him. If you've taken a liking to him, fine, but don't think about giving me away just to stay by his side."

Nan Xun immediately felt a sharp pain in her soul, knowing that her life and death were in the other party's hands. She couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "Miss, spare my life!"

I've combined two chapters today, and it seems like I've grown again?
