An hour later.
Su Xi's hand slowly slid down from the car window.
His hair was soaked with sweat, and he felt weak and powerless. He just stared at the skylight in a daze.
Zhou Jingming lowered his head and kissed the tattoo below her collarbone, then smiled.
He then released her restraints, gently caressing her delicate skin, feeling the woman's helpless trembling beneath him.
"When did you recognize the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master's disciple?"
Before Su Xi could catch her breath, the man's imposing manner intimidated her again. "Three, three years ago."
Zhou Jingming braced his hands on either side of her body, his bangs falling down and covering half of one eye.
He appeared mysterious and intimidating, and Su Xi couldn't help but shrink back. "Back then, I was bullied and almost lost my innocence. It was the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master who appeared and saved me."
"She took pity on me and personally taught me a few moves. Anyway, that's how it is, believe it or not."
Zhou Jingming raised his lips slightly.
It's quite well-written.
If I hadn't known her true identity, I would have been fooled by her.
"Not bad acting." Zhou Jingming played with her hair.
Su Xi angrily slapped his hand away, "Who's acting with you? I'm telling the truth."
That dog of a man is impervious to both soft and hard approaches; he's difficult to deal with.
Now that the lie has been told, she has to keep it a secret even if she has to bite off her tongue.
"What does the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master look like?" Zhou Jingming stared into her eyes, lying without batting an eye or blushing. No wonder he could maintain his disguise for so many years in the 18th tier of the entertainment industry.
Su Xi inwardly cursed Zhou Jingming for being insidious, actually trying to trick her into revealing information.
"She was wearing a mask, so it's unclear."
This identity is extremely important; once exposed, enemies will come knocking, inevitably causing a lot of trouble.
Zhou Jingming raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly, "Such good skills, it should take a year or two to learn them and to maintain long-term contact with her without taking off her mask?"
Su Xi almost choked to death on her own saliva.
What a scoundrel!
Is this a case of getting to the bottom of things?
Su Xi took a deep breath, hooked her arm around his collar and sat up. "The Thousand Nights Pavilion Master never shows her true face to outsiders. I don't sleep with her, so how can I see her face?"
"Unlike you and me, we face each other every day, I know exactly how many moles you have."
Zhou Jingming grabbed her restless little hand.
They wanted to get away with it again.
When he only acts with his lower body?
"Since you know the Pavilion Master of Qianye, could you introduce me to her? I'd like to discuss business with her."
A woman's beauty is used for pleasure in bed.
But for Zhou Jingming, after being entangled with the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master for so many years, what he was most interested in was everything about the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master.
Not only about the body in front of him, but also about the unknown secrets hidden behind her.
If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't the right time to reveal her identity, Su Xi would have strangled this man.
The torment wasn't over yet; now they want to dig up her secrets.
She's lost her body and is now trapped in a relationship.
I have a bitter pill to swallow.
“After she taught me kung fu, we never contacted each other again. You don’t know the rules of Fengxiang Pavilion. Pavilion Master Qianye is secretive. If she doesn’t take the initiative to contact me, I can’t reach her at all.”
Zhou Jingming listened to her eloquent explanation, which seemed quite plausible, and nodded, "Indeed, the leaders of such mysterious organizations are very mysterious."
"But I'm very curious, I've heard that the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master is a cold-blooded and ruthless female demon, how could she have thought of saving you?"
Is she a female demon?
Su Xi gritted her teeth inwardly; she still wanted to call him an old fox.
After all this trouble, isn't he tired?
Su Xi gritted her teeth, but a smile appeared on her face. "We're all women. No one would stand by and watch their fellow woman be bullied."
"Is that so?" Zhou Jingming looked at her with interest.
He wanted to see what other nonsense she could come up with next.
Su Xi nodded, her eyes extremely serious. "Of course, if a woman were being bullied right now, I would definitely step in to help."
Zhou Jingming sat up straight, looking at her with a half-smile, "That's right, you're as kind as Pavilion Master Qianye."
There's nothing wrong with what I'm saying, but something feels off.
I always felt that Zhou Jingming's words had a hidden meaning.
Su Xi replied cautiously, "I'm just a nobody, how can I compare to my master?"
She stubbornly refused to admit that she was the master of Qianye Pavilion. Zhou Jingming tried everything to get her to talk, but he couldn't get her to. In the end, he had no choice but to give up.
So be it.
Sooner or later, he will make her willingly and voluntarily confess.
Seeing that he had clearly given in, Su Xi blinked and yawned, "Honey, I'm sleepy, let's go home and sleep."
Zhou Jingming saw that she looked really tired and felt sorry for her.
In an attempt to force her to speak, he had gone to great lengths during their encounter, tormenting her severely.
Zhou Jingming adjusted the passenger seat to a comfortable angle and helped her lie down. "Go to sleep. I'll carry you to bed when we get there."
Su Xi nodded, then quickly closed her eyes and looked down.
But my mind was clearer than ever.
Zhou Jingming was not surprised at all when he heard that the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master was there, and he remained calm.
Clearly, he knew the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master.
But how could he possibly know himself?
To her recollection, she and Zhou Jingming had never crossed paths.
Zhou Jingming appeared to be focused on driving, but his mind was far from calm.
Su Xigang said that she learned martial arts three years ago, but she had been in Kyoto for three years and never left.
Clearly, she is lying.
Yuan Shen had investigated Su Xi's whereabouts over the years, and the only most problematic period was five years ago.
At that time, Su Rou had just returned and was in a difficult situation in the Su family.
For a period of time, he was kicked out of the Su family's home and disappeared for several months.
In other words, the problem arose in the last few months.
He has already asked Yuan Shen to investigate the gap in this period, but so far there has been no clue whatsoever. It's as if Su Xi has vanished from the face of the earth, with no trace of her whereabouts.
She is the mistress of Qianye Pavilion, an enigmatic figure.
All information will be kept confidential.
To uncover everything, we'll probably have to put in a lot more effort.
Hearing the even breathing sounds around him, Zhou Jingming came to his senses and saw that the little woman had already fallen asleep.
But the next second, he slightly curled the corner of his lips.
Is it fake?
His breathing appeared calm, which could fool most people, but it couldn't fool his eyes.
Zhou Jingming found it increasingly interesting.
She seduced him with her alluring charm, yet harbored a host of secrets, like a queen of a thousand faces.
It made him eager to explore, discover, and understand it in depth.
The car quickly stopped in front of the villa. Zhou Jingming got out of the car first, walked around to the passenger seat, and carried her out.
Su Xi was indeed pretending to be asleep.
He relaxed his body, putting all his weight on Zhou Jingming, and tried his best not to give himself away by breathing.
Zhou Jingming didn't expose her, and casually carried her into the villa.
Before getting married, his life was serious and boring.
But ever since Su Xi moved in, everything has been filled with passion and surprises.
Perhaps her current allure is an act, and she has ulterior motives in seducing him.
But he didn't care.
As long as she is Su Xi.
He didn't care what she wanted to do.
Su Xi could feel the man kick open the master bedroom door. Suddenly, her eyebrows and eyes felt hot, and a hot breath brushed against her earlobe.
The man's voice rang out, "Should I carry you to the bath, or will you bathe yourself?"
