She grabbed the man's arm and pulled him down from the soft stool with a force. She held the man's hand like that and dragged him outside. The night wind was a little cold. When she dragged him to the deck, the man's clothes were torn apart. During this time, the man suddenly woke up, feeling pain all over his body, his nose and face were swollen, and his pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed.

The moonlight was scattered, and Jiuxi's face was stained with a bit of moonlight, which was very beautiful. She stared at the man and smiled, "The emperor, right? You have three thousand beauties in the harem, right?"

Jialou Mingye rubbed his brows, stood up in confusion, and said in a light and gentle voice, "Miss, I think we have met somewhere before."

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

He tugged at his clothes and smoothed his black hair, giving off a rather scholarly air.

Jiuxi smiled palely and said in a cold voice, "Yes, I have seen it."

Her hands tightly grasped his collar, and when she looked at his handsome outline, she couldn't help but feel a palpitation in her heart, and even her face turned slightly red. She raised her arms, and with a force, she threw the man into the water. Seeing the splashing water, she clapped her hands, poked her head out, and waited for him to surface again.

The dark water surface was covered with ripples, but the man's figure did not appear. Jiuxi panicked and chanted a spell. The silver carp in the lake jumped out of the water. Jiuxi asked, "Where is the person I just threw in?"

"Your Majesty, there is a water ghost in this lake. The man just now was..."

"Bang!"

Before the silver carp fell into the water, Jiuxi jumped into the lake. Her silver hair spread out on the water and her body slowly sank. The bottom of the water was pitch black and even her vision was affected. She seemed to see a white shadow and she swam quickly towards the white shadow. After swimming for a while, she felt that she was really stupid!

A golden light flickered from his finger, and the white shadow froze in place. Jiuxi conjured a large bubble from his fingertips, and his entire body was contained within it. He used his magic power to drive the bubble forward, and soon found the white shadow, but...

That's not a water ghost at all, it's just a white piece of clothing.

Her fingers pulled the white dress, and it was immediately torn into pieces, turning into useless scraps of cloth. Jiuxi emerged from the water, her eyes bloodshot, and the magic power in her hands spread out. The entire West Lake seemed to be quiet. Countless koi, silver carp, black carp, and water snakes in the water were thrown into the air by the magic power. She chanted a spell, and everything was frozen in the air.

Even the people were frozen.

Her eyes, as sharp as needles, watched everything, but the West Lake was too vast, and she wandered around for half an hour without finding the man in gorgeous clothes.

She lowered her head as if lost, with sadness flowing in her eyes. She waved her sleeves lightly, and water kept splashing, creating ripples. If she was really taken away by a water ghost, at least there would be a ghost messenger coming, right?

She tapped the lake surface with her toes and looked at the dimly lit pleasure boat. Her eyes gradually became blurred. At this moment, a slender hand suddenly stretched out from under the lake, grabbed Jiuxi's ankle, and dragged her straight down.

Jiuxi was about to curse, wondering which blind water ghost dared to pull her. As soon as she opened her mouth, countless water rushed into her mouth, choking her and almost making her vomit. The man's fingers gently stroked her cheek, and his gorgeous clothes rippled with the water. The man used great strength to hug her in his arms. His strength was so great that her bones hurt.
