Qi Fei stayed in the small dark room. At first, she didn't think anything of it. After all, she was a demon, not an ordinary human.
But after a while, she became a little unhappy because the dark room was completely dark and eerily gloomy.
"When will that bastard remember me? Will he forget me as soon as he turns his back and run off to be with that cousin of his?"
The more Qifei thought about it, the angrier she became, so angry that she even forgot she was hungry.
She pleaded with the system in a coquettish tone, "It's so boring here, is there anything I can do to pass the time?"
The system hesitated for a moment, then said, "I only have novels here. Do you want to read them?"
"Is it good?" Qi Fei hadn't really read many novels. In her previous world, she mostly watched dramas and variety shows, and had never actually read any novels.
"Not bad, right? Let me pick a few for you. I think they're really well-written; I cried buckets." Without saying a word, the system pulled up its private collection of novels.
What type of story are you looking for? How about BDSM?
"Whatever, it's just a way to kill time anyway." Qi Fei said indifferently, resting her chin on her hand and opening the novel recommended by the system.
Meanwhile, Shura rushed out of the courtyard, his face grim, and went straight into Xiu Rong's courtyard. Without saying a word, he went directly into the study.
None of the servants dared to stop them; those with a sense of propriety quickly went to find someone.
Shura entered the study and searched around. Sure enough, he found Qifei's portrait. To be fair, Shura's painting skills were quite good. Qifei in the painting was smiling and lifelike, as if she were a real person smiling at someone outside the painting.
However, this made Shura even angrier. He wanted to tear the painting up, but he couldn't bear to do it when he saw Qifei in the painting.
Xiu Rong rushed over upon receiving the news. When she saw the painting in Xiu Luo's hand, her heart skipped a beat, but her face remained calm. "Second brother, what are you doing?"
"Take my things." Shura looked at Xiu Rong with icy eyes. "Big brother, don't have thoughts you shouldn't have."
Xiu Rong clenched her fists, watching Xiu Luo stride away, her eyes bloodshot.
In terms of fighting, he was no match for Shura, but what Shura did today was utterly humiliating.
"Rong'er, what is that evil star trying to do?!" When Madam Xiu arrived after receiving the news, Xiu Luo had already left. When she came in and saw the mess on the ground, she was so angry that she trembled all over.
What are they trying to do? How dare they treat a facial like this!
"This is simply outrageous!" Madam Xiu said angrily, looking at the mess the room had been ransacked. "Aren't you going to clean it up right away? Do you expect me to do it myself?"
Madam Xiu vented her anger on the servants without hesitation, and several people rushed in from outside to start tidying up the house.
She glanced cautiously at Xiu Rong, who sat silently in the chair, and found his expression quite frightening. She comforted him, "Rong'er, don't worry. When your father comes back, I will definitely make him teach him a lesson."
Xiu Rong suppressed his anger, "No need, I will avenge today's humiliation myself."
He wants to take back what Shura took today, and not only the things, but also the people.
It seems that the maid's position in Shura's heart is much more important than he thought.

Shura took the scroll back, but the more he looked at it, the angrier he became. So he simply rolled it up and put it somewhere out of sight, hoping to cleanse his mind from what he couldn't see.
He then had Xiaosong bring over a few more jars of wine, and without even eating, he immediately opened the jars and started drinking.
Xiaosong and the others were pacing anxiously outside the study. Xiu Luo had a bad stomach and had started drinking without eating anything today. He would definitely have a stomachache soon.
Unfortunately, Qifei, who usually keeps Shura in check, is locked up again, leaving them anxious but helpless.
Apart from Qifei, no one dared to provoke Shura.
Shura got completely drunk and fell asleep in the study. He was only woken up by a burning pain in his stomach.
He groaned and subconsciously called out to Qifei, saying that his stomach hurt.
Since Qifei arrived, his diet has become much more regular. Qifei knows that he has a bad stomach, so she tries to find ways to give him things that are warm to the stomach, and he hasn't had much stomach pain since.
This time, he drank alcohol without eating anything, as if releasing all the pain he had accumulated before, and the pain made him sweat profusely.
The headache and stomachache from the hangover sobered Xiu Luo up a bit. Seeing himself in the study, he staggered to his feet and went to the back room to find Qi Fei.
Qifei had never treated him like this before. Every time he drank alcohol, she would cook him a hangover soup.
She cooks everything herself, and her hangover soup is not bad at all; it even has a slightly sweet taste.
Today, not only was there no hangover soup, but there was also no hot water and no clean clothes. Shura felt extremely wronged.
He strode into the room, which was quiet and cold. The usual sweet and fragrant scent was gone, and only Qi Fei's usual items remained.
"Someone! Someone!" Shura sat on the bed with a headache, glaring angrily at Xiaosong who rushed in. "Where's Qifei? Where did she go?"
Xiao Song looked at Xiu Luo, hesitant to speak, "Master, you told us to lock up Qi Fei yesterday, have you forgotten?"
Tormented by headaches and stomachaches, Shura finally came to his senses. Remembering what happened yesterday, he jumped up and, for the first time, resented the servant for being so obedient. "Where is he locked up?"

Qi Fei read the novel for half the night, her eyes red and swollen from crying. She even discussed the plot with the system, cursing the male lead for abusing the female lead both physically and emotionally.
The system seemed to have found a kindred spirit, and the two argued more and more, crying as they watched, until they finally managed to fall asleep at the crack of dawn.
My eyes stung a little when I closed them because I had been crying for so long.
The system felt a little guilty, regretting that it hadn't given the host a sadomasochistic novel, which had made her cry so much that her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
When Shura found the dark room, he saw Qifei curled up in the corner, unconscious with red and swollen eyes, and he was terrified.
Ignoring his own discomfort, he hurriedly picked up Qifei and repeatedly told Xiaosong to find a doctor.
Qifei had just fallen asleep, and the familiar scent of Xiu Luo made her sleep even more soundly.
The doctor arrived quickly, took my pulse, and said there was no problem. He just advised me to think more positively about things and not to worry so much.
Shura looked at Qifei lying on the bed and felt a mix of emotions.
He was really angry about what happened yesterday.
No man can remain calm when another man is eyeing his woman.
The thought of Xiu Rong having such filthy thoughts about Qi Fei made him unable to control the violence in his heart.
This girl is so spoiled by him that she's completely out of control. She doesn't talk like a servant or a master at all.
But he couldn't bear to part with it.
She's always been delicate, and after spending the night in that dark room, she must have been terrified and heartbroken; her eyes were swollen from crying.
Shura felt extremely guilty. He hadn't slept well all night, and seeing Qifei sleeping so soundly, he got into bed and cuddled her as he fell asleep.
