By now, Wanwan clearly understood that she had been teased.

After a moment of stunned silence, Wanwan frowned slightly.

Wanwan wanted to speak up and save face again, but considering Chu Qinghe's cultivation level and his performance just now, she was a little worried.

What if I keep teasing him and Chu Qinghe actually takes it seriously?

If Chu Qinghe were to gag her, she would scream until her throat was raw, or her throat would probably be raw.

Looking at Wanwan's somewhat embarrassed and angry expression, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but sigh.

"So she's new here after all! Playing these games with the young master."

Even someone like Zhu Wushi or Bai Xiaosheng couldn't outwit Chu Qinghe, let alone Wanwan.

How could one possibly gauge Chu Qinghe's abilities by testing him with one's own limited knowledge?

Seeing this, Chu Qinghe smiled inwardly.

I've never heard of any man being afraid of being taken advantage of when facing a woman.

Play by yourself.

However, some things can easily go astray if you play with them too much.

If we keep playing like this, what if Wanwan cleans her gun and then takes her anger out on Wanwan?

This thing can't withstand testing and trials.

After all, Wanwan is on the Hundred Flowers Ranking, and her charm is no less than that of Shuimu Yinji, Yaoyue, or Dongfang Bubai.

Afterwards, Chu Qinghe picked up a pot of wine from the table, jumped up, and leaped onto the roof to enjoy the night view and cool off in the breeze.

Sensing the slight movement on the roof, Wanwan's expression turned somewhat stifled.

In the past, Wanwan had always been the one to manipulate the men who were captivated by her beauty.

But today, it was Chu Qinghe who was teasing him instead.

This situation gave Wanwan a strange feeling, like a wild goose that had been pecked in the eye by a swallow after many years.

That's infuriating.

Seeing Wanwan's appearance, the jellyfish Yin Ji couldn't help but chuckle to herself.

Fortunately, Wanwan was from the Demonic Sect, and she quickly readjusted her mood and started chatting with the other girls, including the Water Mother Yin Ji.

With her beauty, sweet talk, and charming personality, she quickly became familiar with the girls.

A moment later, listening to the soft voices and the clatter of mahjong tiles below...

The sound that was made made Chu Qinghe on the rooftop chuckled inwardly.

"The matter on the Ming Dynasty side has come to an end; now it's time to deal with the Tang Dynasty."

A few breaths later, Chu Qinghe suddenly sighed softly.

Therefore, life is not easy at all.

Just like Chu Qinghe now, he clearly just wants to stay in his own little corner of the world, watch the sunrise and sunset, do some farming at night, live a life of contentment and following his heart.

But trouble always seems to find its way in.

To paraphrase an old saying, "There are always treacherous subjects who want to harm me."

After a short while, Chu Qinghe sorted out and analyzed the information, considering the overall situation in the Ming Dynasty and the known situation in the Tang Dynasty. Then, he focused his attention on the system.

"Next month, I'll be eligible for the annual contract. It's my first time signing an annual contract, and I wonder what kind of good things I'll get as a reward."

As he thought about it, Chu Qinghe's anticipation grew stronger.

As anticipation grew, a gentle smile appeared on Chu Qinghe's face.

Life needs something to look forward to.

It wasn't until nearly midnight, when Wanwan, who already owed almost twenty taels of silver, reluctantly ended the game and returned to her room.

While lying in bed, Wanwan's mind was filled with thoughts of Chu Qinghe.

In recent years, the struggle between the Yin Gui School and the Cihang Jingzhai School has become even more intense.

Furthermore, with Cihang Jingzhai's practice of arranging marriages among its disciples, the number of forces within the Tang Dynasty that have been won over by Cihang Jingzhai has been increasing in recent years.

In addition, the reputation that Cihang Jingzhai had built up has further strengthened its influence in recent years.

In contrast, consider the demonic sects within the Tang Dynasty.

Other demonic sects such as the Flower Sect, the Extinction of Love Sect, the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, and the Heavenly Lotus Sect all declined decades ago with the disappearance of the Evil King Shi Zhixuan.

Currently, among the demonic sects in the Tang Dynasty, only the Yin Gui Sect is still surviving.

However, the Yin Gui Sect already felt a sense of being suppressed when facing the current Cihang Jingzhai.

There is now an urgent need to unite some new forces.

According to the information gathered today, Chu Qinghe is unaffiliated with any sect or faction and does not belong to any power.

He also possesses extremely high medical skills.

Furthermore, given that Chu Qinghe was able to reach the Grandmaster realm at such a young age, his talent and potential are undeniable.

Given time, he might be able to enter the realm of celestial beings.

If they could join the Yin Gui Sect, they would definitely become a great help in the fight against Cihang Jingzhai.

Moreover, he can write stories to pass the time in his spare time.

For Wanwan, if she were to let go of such a wild and talented individual, it would be a waste of the chance that Heaven had brought her to Yushui City.

"I'm determined to kidnap this man."

However, considering Chu Qinghe's shrewd performance today and his subtle way of teasing her, Wanwan felt that it would be quite difficult to approach him from Chu Qinghe's perspective.

However, since it was difficult to make a move against Chu Qinghe, Wanwan had to resort to another method.

First, find a way to abduct the people around Chu Qinghe, and then get Chu Qinghe into the Yin Gui Sect.

"It seems that in this courtyard, only Situ Rong with her sweet smile and Xiao Zhao with the biggest eyes look the most innocent."

"Although Lin Shiyin appears gentle, she is actually quite wary. Qu Feiyan is too clever and not easy to fool."
