As a woman who also loves cleanliness, Wang Yingqiu takes showers quite frequently, especially after having a relationship with Jing Zhe. She developed the habit of showering every day to ensure that she is clean every day—who knows when he might come over?
Her idea was simple: she always wanted to present her best self to him…
The habit had been formed, and even though she hadn't spent many days alone with Jing Zhe, she still maintained this habit. Fortunately, the place they stayed in Jinxi was nice, with two natural hot springs, so even after it snowed, they could still take a hot bath.
After returning from the martial arts tournament, she talked with Mu Qingren for a long time, mainly to thank Mu Qingren for agreeing to help Jing Zhe today. She always felt that if it weren't for her, Mu Qingren would definitely not have agreed to help, since she had previously disagreed with the two of them meeting.
But to her surprise, Mu Qingren not only agreed to help, but also agreed that she could meet with Jing Zhe in the future, and that she wouldn't even need to notify Jing Zhe when he came!
After leaving Mu Qingren's room, Wang Yingqiu felt that something was off. When did her master become so easy to talk to?
Just a day earlier, she had been gritting her teeth with hatred when she mentioned Jing Zhe, and had warned her, "As long as he doesn't agree to join my Wuxian Pavilion, I won't let him see you for a day, let's see if he gets anxious."
How come the attitude has changed so much in just one day?
She thought carefully about what had happened today and seemed to have finally found a clue!
Something's not right about those two!
She heard from Bai Lu that Jing Zhe had come to Wuxian Pavilion for an interview yesterday afternoon, and then went out with her master. Her master did not return when it got dark. She did not take it seriously, since Mu Qingren would not tell her what she did when she went out.
This morning, when she went to find Mu Qingren, no one was there. She was curious at the time, but when she went back after she finished tidying up, she saw Mu Qingren inside the house.
She looked exhausted, her hair seemed to have been soaked and then dried, with many strands sticking together, but her expression was good. Because she had to rush to the arena, she didn't have time to ask...
However, considering what happened in front of the dueling platform, there are even more suspicious points!
When Jing Zhe sat down between them, Wang Yingqiu was too nervous to think much about it, but at the same time he was sitting next to her master, Mu Qingren!
Mu Qingren had always disliked Jing Zhe, and would frown and pout whenever she saw him. How could she allow him to sit next to them?
Throughout the entire process, she didn't react at all, not even moving her buttocks to the side!
Moreover, when Wang Yingqiu pinched Jing Zhe for the first time, he hissed. Then she pinched him again, and Jing Zhe hissed again. She clearly remembered that she only pinched him twice, but Jing Zhe hissed again afterward!
What does this tell us?
This means someone was pinching him again the third time!
If it wasn't herself... then it could only be her master, Mu Qingren!
Connecting all these things together, even the fact that her master finally agreed to Jing Zhe's request—Wang Yingqiu originally thought that Mu Qingren agreed because of her, but now that she thought about it carefully, Mu Qingren originally wanted to agree, but after hearing her say it, she just went along with it!
When a woman has doubts, her sensitivity and intuition can be terrifying. Following these clues, Wang Yingqiu vaguely guessed what was going on...
No way, really?
She felt that her master wouldn't, but her man... she couldn't guarantee it, no, she could guarantee it, she definitely would!
After all, although Mu Qingren was his master, she was only six or seven years older than him. Moreover, Mu Qingren was beautiful and was only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, yet she had the perfect face of a young girl. Which man wouldn't be moved by her?
And it's even more so when it's her own man...
But when did the two of them start dating?
In Wang Yingqiu's memory, the two of them should have only met a few times, so how did things develop to this point?
Thinking about the possibilities between the two of them, Wang Yingqiu felt somewhat at a loss, and a strange emotion arose in her heart. She was unhappy, but not sad either.
Her own master and her own man...
Her only thought right now is curiosity!
So after arriving at the entrance of the hot spring in the courtyard, Wang Yingqiu hesitated several times but still did not push the door open to go in.
After thinking for a while, he went to the gate of the small courtyard, pushed the door open and went in. He took off his clothes and quickly jumped into the hot spring, with only his head sticking out.
This hot spring was built following the trajectory of the spring water, winding and irregular, with artificial hills and strange rocks in the middle that block the view. If you hide in the innermost part, people outside can't see it at all.
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
Wang Yingqiu knew that Mu Qingren had entered, but she still cautiously slipped into the innermost part of the room.
After talking to Wang Yingqiu, Mu Qingren went back to her room to tidy up for a while, so she came out a little later than Wang Yingqiu. After entering, she casually glanced at the hot spring, which was empty, just like usual.
With the hot spring so close, Mu Qingren felt even more sticky and itchy all over her body. She quickened her pace and took off her clothes as she went.
When she arrived at the hot spring, she suddenly froze.
On the marble table next to the hot spring, where clothes were kept, were Wang Yingqiu's clothes!
Mu Qingren stopped what she was doing, looked at the still calm surface of the hot spring water and the darkness hidden by the artificial hill, and seemed to be deep in thought.
"Yingqiu?"
Mu Qingren said softly.
"Master, it's me."
Wang Yingqiu answered softly, and then swam out of the hot spring. Only her little head was still visible above the water, making her look very cute.
“Master, it seems like it’s been many years since I bathed with you. I just happened to know that you haven’t bathed either, so I came over to talk to you for a bit.”
When Wang Yingqiu first entered Wuxian Pavilion, she was only a teenager and did indeed take a bath with Mu Qingren.
"Master, hurry up and take off your clothes, it's too cold!"
Wang Yingqiu's head was above the water, and she winked at Mu Qingren.
So many years have passed, and if the two of them were to meet naked, Mu Qingren suddenly felt a little embarrassed, her hands clasped together, unsure of what to do with them.
"What, is Master still shy?"
As she spoke, Wang Yingqiu suddenly stood up from the water. Spring water flowed down her perfect, alabaster-white body, and her skin, exposed to the cold, biting air, instantly flushed red.
Mu Qingren gritted her teeth, but still turned her body around, took off her clothes, and quickly jumped into the water.
"Master, are you really shy?"
"What...is there for me to be ashamed of?"
Mu Qingren pulled her hair up and said calmly.
"Master, if we were standing in front of the same person like this, would you still be shy?"
"..."
