On the other side, after Cui Liu received the message conveyed by Chu Zimei, she quietly went to the guest room.

She said that she was going to serve their young master, saying that the young master was drunk and there must be someone to take care of him, so there was no reason for her to go back by herself.

But in reality, she felt this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to get into bed with him. If something really happened between them, she didn't believe Xing Zhongchen would be able to ignore her.

When the time comes, she will be gentle and considerate to him. Which man would not like him? She will be able to easily win over this rookie who has no experience in the world.

It was late, and with the windows closed and the candles lit, the room was already quite dark. The man on the bed, covered in a blanket and reeking of alcohol, looked remarkably like Chen Tian.

Cui Liu was delighted when she saw this and immediately took off her clothes and moved closer. As expected, once they were on the bed, the man embraced her without her even needing to seduce him.

Xing Yulong wasn't a gentleman to begin with, having had a concubine from a very early age. He wouldn't do it openly for the sake of his reputation, but he would occasionally visit brothels. Now that he was deeply intoxicated and someone had offered themselves to him, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

It was only when the two rolled together and were really face to face that Cui Liu was surprised to find that the man holding her was not Xing Zhongchen at all.

But after looking closely at the man's features, she recognized him.

Wasn't it that when she was secretly recruited into the Prime Minister's Residence and was about to leave after listening to Xing Ao'er's instructions, she caught a glimpse of Xing Yulong, the eldest son of the Xing family, who had just returned from afar!

Why is the eldest young master of the Xing family here?

Cui Liu was shocked, but she thought that this person's status was much higher than Xing Zhongchen, and he also held an official position.

Even if he took Miss Xing's money, what would it matter? That woman would get married sooner or later.

If she could get hold of the eldest son of the Xing family, even if she could be his concubine, it would be much better than following Xing Zhongchen.

Even though Xing Ao'er gave a lot of money, Xing Zhongchen was the Nine Thousand Year Old Man's concubine.

The Ninth Thousand Year Old is not someone you can easily mess with. Who knows if you really make him angry, you might still be alive?

So, Cui Liu had the answer in her heart in an instant.

So, she went up to him with a sweet smile, trying her best to please Xing Yulong.

Cui Liu's choice was completely within Chen Tian's expectations. After Bai Su returned home, she immediately ran to him to take credit and told him everything she had done that day.

He said that he had taken the woman out and wanted to find an opportunity to throw her away, but who knew that he happened to meet the drunk Xing Yulong. He took advantage of the situation and brought them together, thus getting rid of a big trouble.

Bai Su looked at Chen Tian, ​​who looked like he was about to turn his tail to the sky, and suppressed his laughter. He nodded and praised him, "Zhong Chen is indeed extremely intelligent."

"Right! Bai Su, actually, I'm not stupid as your man, and you can rely on me!" Chen Tian hurriedly held Bai Su's watch and said.

"That's right. From now on, I'll rely on you, Zhongchen."

Bai Su's lips curled up, his expression gentle.

Although he felt that there was no need to go to such trouble with such a person, he could just kill him. However, seeing his beloved so happy, he naturally wouldn't discourage him. He even kindly agreed, "By doing this, we can just hand over the person Xing Ao'er sent to Xing Yulong, and let the brother and sister fight each other."

"Yes, I think so too! The one who understands me best is Bai Su!"

Chen Tian was shaking his head here, pretending to be a gentleman for once.

After sending the man out, Bai Su was in a good mood. While drinking the wine in his glass, he couldn't help but say to him, "Zhongchen, when you first saw that beautiful woman, were you really not moved at all?"

Chen Tian, ​​who was standing opposite him, immediately shook his head when he heard this. He looked a little confused and said, "Why would you be tempted? Besides, how can that woman be beautiful? She's nowhere near as pretty as you! I've never seen anyone prettier than you in my entire life!"

Just saying this, before Bai Su could react, Chen Tian froze first, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, I said something wrong..."

Bai Su, however, was not angry. He could tell that the other party had said this subconsciously, and was simply expressing his inner thoughts. Seeing Chen Tian's ears flushed and his eyes averted, not daring to look at him, he was even more moved.

She simply leaned over and kissed the young man on the cheek.

Being looked at by his beloved with such gentle eyes, Chen Tian's heart softened. He opened his mouth and then, somewhat stunned, confessed to him: "Bai Su, have I ever told you that I like you?"

Seeing that the person opposite him seemed to have lost his breathing because of his words, he held Bai Su's hand tightly.

"Bai Su, at the beginning, when we didn't know each other, I just respected and admired you. I didn't expect that the more we interacted, the more I realized how good you were. Slowly, my heart and eyes were filled with you.

Bai Su, I really like you!

It's not because of an arranged marriage, nor because we are husband and wife in name only, it's just because of you.

I, Xing Zhongchen, just like you, and I sincerely want to spend my whole life with you happily.

I swear, I promise I will never fall in love with anyone other than you, and you, you don't have to fall in love with anyone else, just stay with me, the two of us, okay?"

The young man's words were blunt and a bit silly, but Bai Su was truly shocked by them.

He didn't expect that the relationship he had always been looking forward to and wanted would be presented right in front of him and within his reach.

Everything seemed so unreal that Bai Su even began to doubt whether what he was experiencing was just a dream.

But even though this might all be a dream, he still heard himself say, "Okay."

Bai Su responded, he agreed to the request of the person he loved deeply.

Indeed, how could he possibly refuse? As long as this person's request didn't involve leaving him, he couldn't refuse anything else.

The other party's promise was too tempting. Even if there was a bottomless abyss ahead, he would probably step over it without hesitation.

Holding Chen Tian's jaw, Bai Su kissed him forcefully. He felt strongly that he needed to do something to vent his emotions.

Chen Tian was stunned for just a moment before responding gently.

He hugged his lover tightly, and the two of them soon kissed passionately. Chen Tian felt very satisfied and thought that this was their end. However, after feeling the belt being untied, he found that his partner seemed to have other ideas.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Tian, ​​who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above, still a little dazed.

Perhaps Bai Su had experienced too much in his life, and strength was ingrained in him. After gaining power, his lover acted recklessly, so it wasn't surprising that he did these things to himself.

Chen Tian knew that this was not good, but he still couldn't stop thinking about the glory his lover had just had.

It was not until today that he discovered that Bai Su was not only good at military and court affairs. His dexterous hands were not only used to hold swords and whips. The calluses left by years of martial arts training had other benefits.

Most importantly, he could feel that Bai Su would show joy because he couldn't help himself.

The joy of his lover is his greatest happiness.

Even though they didn't reach the end and Bai Su didn't even take off his underwear, it couldn't be considered a naked meeting.

Chen Tian looked at Bai Su tenderly, took his wrist, and kissed the back of his hand. The two of them looked at each other, enjoying the warm and sweet atmosphere.

It was just before going to bed that Chen Tiantian remembered something important that he had originally planned to talk about when he was asking for credit.

Since Xing Aoer would attack him, she would definitely not let the heroine go easily. Chen Tian was still a little worried about Zhu Ruoyan's safety.

Although the heroine is a thoughtful person, it is difficult for anyone to make mistakes. Chen Tian still asks Bai Su for help, hoping that he can send someone to protect the heroine in secret.

Bai Su agreed to Chen Tian's request without thinking, and assigned a secret guard to follow Zhu Ruoyan at all times. Afterwards, he also instructed Chu Zimei to increase the manpower.

Everything was just as Chen Tian expected.

Ever since Cui Liu took the initiative to sneak into Xing Yulong's room that day, she had not appeared in front of Chen Tian again. However, through 009, Chen Tian still easily knew about the hustle and bustle of the Xing family.

This Cui Liu was truly quite capable. After that night, she had truly made Xing Yulong want more. She had no idea what she was saying, but she had persuaded Xing Yulong to take her home with him. Within a few days, he even promoted her to concubine, much to the chagrin of Xing Ao'er.

Xing Ao'er couldn't say that she had secretly hired someone to seduce Chen Tian, ​​so she could only swallow her anger. Seeing that her plan had failed, she decided to stop targeting the heroine's shop and instead directly hire someone to attack Zhu Ruoyan.

However, this time, she did not cause trouble for the shop. Instead, she spent a lot of money to find some martial arts masters with high martial arts skills. However, she did not expect that all the people she found were dealt with by the people sent by Bai Su to protect the heroine.

Now, neither the open nor the secret methods work, Xing Aoer is really at a loss.

The Nine Thousand Year Old Man's Mansion was an ironclad entity, and she had no other way to alienate Chen Tian and Bai Su.

Xing Ao'er couldn't sit still when she thought that it would not be long before the prince fell in love with Zhu Ruoyan at the temple fair in her previous life.

She was anxious, thinking that at the very least, she must ruin the meeting between the prince and Zhu Ruoyan.

Recently, the Crown Prince's Mansion had just extended an olive branch to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Just like in their previous life, they expressed their intention to marry Xing Ao'er as their principal wife, hoping to gain Prime Minister Xing's support in the court.

In her previous life, during the temple fair, the prince had asked her to go with him. This time, Xing Ao'er agreed again, and she made many preparations for this, just to be able to trip up the prince when the time comes.

So on the day of the temple fair, Xing Ao'er deliberately arrived late, thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was always gentle and would definitely not mind.

Little did he know that Zhu Wendong had been waiting in the carriage for a long time, feeling extremely dissatisfied. He felt that this daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion had become so arrogant because of her favor that she dared to make him, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace and the future Emperor of Xiliang Kingdom, wait for so long.

I'm afraid all this was orchestrated by Prime Minister Xing, who wanted Xing Ao'er to intimidate him. Did he really think Xiliang was a Xing?

If it weren't for the Nine Thousand Years Old's great power and the fact that he needed an ally to fight against him, why would he have to endure all this?

The author has something to say:

Zhu Ruoyan: Thank you for the invitation. I don’t want to meet the prince. Thank you!
