She hasn't experienced this yet, so she can sneak around with her darling after the child falls asleep... It sounds quite interesting.
"oh."
Xia Ke'an finally found a backer and quickly scurried behind her to hide. "Aunt Jiang is so kind too."
But what she really wanted to say was, "I just wanted to peek! I can't do *that*, but I can at least enjoy the view! You guys always throw me out... just pretend I don't exist!"
It perfectly suits the curiosity of an innocent child. Perhaps she herself didn't realize that she was more deeply immersed in the role than she imagined.
"So that's what you were thinking?!"
Xu Shi was surprised by Jiang Chengcheng's idea, but after thinking about it for a moment, he also had a wicked thought, "Well... it's not impossible?"
It seems like everyone's happy doing this, right?
As he was returning to his cabin with his wife, children, and elderly parents, he caught a glimpse of a guy with a very low profile out of the corner of his eye.
What does that expression mean?
Seeing that Shen Qin hadn't had time to wipe away her smile, Xu Shi frowned.
It was easy to see that she was mocking him, mocking Xu Shi for pretending to be a big shot despite being humiliated by seasickness.
Anyway, she wasn't really affected. She couldn't usually do anything to harm Xu Shi, so it would be a lie to say she wasn't happy to finally see such a scene.
But Xu Shi didn't want to give her that chance, so he walked over and grabbed her wrist.
"It seems you still haven't learned how to be a good dog, Miss Shen Qin."
He smiled and said, "I've changed my mind. It's your turn tonight."
"You, you let go..."
Shen Qin struggled frantically, but unfortunately, she was powerless to resist. She had no choice but to resort to her old trick, quickly lowering her head, "I...I was wrong..."
What's the point of apologizing every time you commit a crime?
Xu Shi wasn't buying it. "I'll teach you a lesson today."
"No, don't..."
"Hey, looks like your dad's going to have someone else sleep with him tonight."
Jiang Chengcheng crossed her arms and watched the commotion from the sidelines. "So, what do you say? Is Xiao Ke'an still going to sleep with me tonight?"
The white-haired little girl blinked her eyes, "That's fine too."
It's more surprising that Xu Shi hasn't made a move against Chen Qin. His true nature has been revealed, huh?
"Stop! We can change her, but who said she's to serve us in bed?"
Xu Shi promptly corrected her, "She doesn't even have the right to serve the emperor in bed."
"and you?"
"I'm here to train a dog."
After leaving those words, Xu Shi pulled Shen Qin into the room and tossed her a collar.
"Kneel down and put it on yourself."
...
So, when they arrived at the capital city of the empire and disembarked, everyone's mental state had completely changed.
Xu Shi looked much more spirited, and the others had basically gotten used to seasickness.
Only Shen Qin followed behind Xu Shi without saying a word, gripping his arm tightly, her body still flushed.
God knows what she went through these past two days, but one thing is certain: she has gained a more direct understanding of how she was "reformed."
She finally realized that she couldn't even control her own body anymore.
If Xu Shi were willing, even just a light touch with her finger would cause her to lose consciousness and fall into a blissful state of mental blankness.
What's even more terrifying is what happens after the bliss. Sometimes she'll be forced back to her senses, and she'll feel her memories slipping away bit by bit, feeling utterly powerless and unable to stop it.
She was initially relieved that Xu Shi hadn't paid much attention to her during her time on Silver Pine Island; her life wasn't exactly wonderful, but it was still relatively normal.
As a result, the entire cost was made up in just those two days on the ship...
"Do you know what to do from now on, Xiao Qin?"
Xu Shi was very satisfied with his short-term training and turned around to ask with a smile.
As he himself said, he did not need to be deeply in love with Chen Qin, because that was too easy. How could it be as interesting as wearing down one's spirit and will?
"I...I understand, brother. I won't do it again..."
Shen Qin mumbled a response, feeling wronged and wanting to cry.
In my memory, my brother wasn't like this at all; he'd always been very gentle with me since we were little...
wrong!
Several minutes later, she came to her senses. This wasn't her brother! Her brother was long dead!
This should have been a painful memory etched into her very bones, but now it takes her a long time to recall it. She was even led astray by Xu Shi's simple "Xiao Qin," and in her daze, she would subconsciously mistake him for that person.
She was really scared.
Xu Shi laughed happily. He had said it before: he didn't necessarily need to win Shen Qin's heart; he just needed to have her body.
Because under his manipulation, as long as he gets the other person's body, he can also get their heart.
"Master, Master."
Pan Ling had no idea what he was thinking, nor what he had been doing in the cabin these past few days.
She didn't even understand why her master had brought this guard instead of Sister Xingchuan, who was clearly more powerful. Even Brother Luoyu wasn't a match for her...
But it's true that she was about to suffocate.
"I still can't figure out the answer to the question you gave me..."
The poor, obedient apprentice begged for help.
"Tell me your thoughts?"
Xu Shi put away his playful nature, ignored Shen Qin, and looked at her seriously.
"I……"
Pan Ling stammered, "At first, I was thinking, is there any way to stop the train so that no one will die... But you said that's not the case, so I was thinking, wouldn't it be better if only one person died than five?"
