For some reason, Gu Zhixing blurted out, "With your bean sprout-like figure, you think you can seduce this young master and make him pity you? Don't even think about it!"

Do you really think he'll make the same mistake again and again?

"you……"

Whether it was that comment about her "bean sprout figure" or another deliberate seduction, it completely irritated Shen Jintang, causing her to lose all reason. Forget about scheming or comforting, she was so angry that her face turned bright red.

"Gu Zhixing, you're a complete bastard!"

Shen Jintang had never suffered such humiliation in her life. If she had done it, it would have been fine, but she hadn't done it and yet they were still throwing mud at her!

This is intolerable!

"Me, a bastard? Aren't you? Didn't you want to climb over me to get ahead?"

"Do you think I, the young master, would swallow this humiliation like others?"

"Don't even think about it!"

"I'm going to make you work for nothing. Don't forget, I bought you from the slave market. Your documents and contracts are in my hands. You'll be my maid for life, understand?"

A flash of white light went through Shen Jintang's mind; she seemed to know what Gu Zhixing was about to do.

When Grand Tutor Shen impeached him in court, he decided to retaliate in the same way.

Now he mistakenly believes that he has used her to become this cousin and rightfully return to the Shen family, so he also wants to make his wish come true and have his efforts in vain!

Was all that effort for nothing?

That won't do!

She had finally escaped her status as a slave, and although she was just a cousin, with some effort, she might be able to achieve her goal and kill those beasts in human form.

But if she lets Gu Zhixing do whatever he wants and she ends up with nothing, then all the tears she's shed these past few days will have been for nothing.

"Gu Zhixing, listen to me, there's a misunderstanding between us... mmm..."

Gu Zhixing didn't want to hear a single word from Shen Jintang, so he directly silenced her with a kiss.

He untied his cloak, covering the person from head to toe, so that no one could tell who was inside.

Then, he picked the person up and left.
