Chapter 3 The Man at the Bottom of the Cold Pool



At the bottom of the cold pool.

The man was fiery and hard as iron. Though eager, he was still relatively gentle.

The medicinal properties in her body, combined with the cold pool water, prevented her from experiencing significant pain.

She had never experienced this feeling in her previous life; all she felt then was tension and fear.

When she sank to the bottom of the icy pool, she had no idea that there was a man in the pool. When he entangled her, she was terrified and tried desperately to hit him, but the man was as solid as a mountain, and her strength was so insignificant in front of him.

This man from her past life was like a stain on her life, a nightmare she never wanted to think about.

But now that she thinks about it, she realizes it's really strange that a man would appear in this icy pool.

The man's movements were very clumsy; this must have been his first time.

This shows that he is not a lustful person, but he was so eager just now, and he couldn't hold back at all when she touched him.

Therefore, she couldn't help but suspect that the man, like her, had been drugged and was hiding at the bottom of this icy pool to find the antidote, but then he happened to run into her.

The water in the pool kept lapping against the stone bank, wave after wave.

At the last moment, Su Xuening suddenly moved close to the man and bit him hard on the shoulder, using all her strength in the bite.

The sudden pain seemed to spur the man on, and he abruptly tightened his embrace around Su Xuening.

Feeling something stuck in her chest, Su Xuening touched the man's neck. It was round, like a bead. Without thinking, she ripped the bead off.

Just like in his previous life, the man lost consciousness after the act was over.

Having guessed the general outline of what had happened, Su Xuening was no longer surprised. She pushed the man away forcefully, letting him sink to the bottom of the pool, and then swam back to the surface.

In her past life, she had tried to pull a man up, but he was too heavy for her to lift. In this life, she wouldn't bother with that effort.

If this person is dead, then he is dead. If he were alive, she might be able to find him in the future using this mark!

Su Xuening swam out of the cold pool and, by the moonlight, saw that the bead in her hand was actually a Buddhist prayer bead.

How could it be a Buddhist rosary?

Is he a monk?

Su Xuening looked back at the cold pool one last time before getting ashore.

Under the silvery moonlight, her fair, jade-like skin shone with a holy glow, breathtakingly beautiful.

But Su Xuening frowned as she looked at her smooth arms.

A moment later, she got dressed and went down the mountain.

Unbeknownst to Su Xuening, not long after she left, two guards went down into the cold pool and took away the man who was sleeping at the bottom of the pool.

As soon as Su Xuening arrived at the foot of the mountain, she saw a long line of torches heading towards the dilapidated temple.

There were quite a few people who came, including Su Renyi, the head of the Su family, and the third prince, Xuan Yuanyu, as well as many city guards.

Su Feiling chose to implement her plan today because it was Xuan Yuan Yu who was in charge of patrolling, and it was also the day Su Ren Yi was guarding the city gate.

Su Feiling was definitely feigning concern that something had happened to her, and led them to the dilapidated temple to look for her.

How could Su Xuening miss such a grand spectacle?

Su Xuening followed them to the dilapidated temple. As soon as she got nearby, she heard a familiar voice.

"Father, what's that sound coming from inside?"

The one who asked the question was Su Muyao, the fourth daughter of the Su family. At this moment, she was looking at Su Renyi with an innocent expression, as if she really didn't understand anything.

Su Renyi looked embarrassed, as if he was embarrassed and didn't know how to explain.

The surrounding city guards also had subtle expressions, and some even had lewd looks on their faces.

Only Xuanyuan Yu remained expressionless.

Su Muyao suddenly widened her eyes as if she had just realized something: "Could it be that my older sister is inside...?"

Su Feiling glanced at Xuan Yuan Yu, her pretty face slightly flushed, and scolded in a low voice, "Yao'er, don't talk nonsense!"

Su Muyao pouted, unconvinced: "Where did I lie? Didn't my aunt elope with the coachman? Like mother, like daughter. Who knows if Su Xuening did the same!"

"It can't be Ning'er!"

Xuanyuan Yu gritted his teeth and said something, then rushed into the dilapidated temple first.

Su Muyao and Su Feiling, no longer ashamed, followed them into the dilapidated temple.

Seeing that there was a good show to watch, the others followed suit.

The chaotic scene inside the dilapidated temple instantly stunned everyone present.

It turned out that it wasn't just one man and one woman, but a group of men and one woman.

Su Feiling looked at the woman surrounded by a group of beggars, a smug smile almost imperceptibly appearing on her lips. She glanced at Xuan Yuan Yu, and seeing his face as black as ink, she became even more triumphant.

Now, he will never want Su Xuening again!

The beggars who were originally enjoying themselves were terrified when they saw so many people and soldiers suddenly rushing in, and they all retreated to the side.

A completely naked woman with disheveled hair was thus exposed to everyone's eyes.

"Ah!" Su Muyao screamed, covering her eyes as if startled, "I knew it was Su Xuening! With so many men around, Su Xuening is shameless!"

"Who's shameless!"

Just when everyone thought the woman was Su Xuening, a sharp voice suddenly rang out at the door.
