Yue Lingyin wanted to memorize the map of the mansion so that it would be easier for her to commit crimes in the future. Since Wei Jinzhi didn't say anything, she took the initiative to ask.
"What's that over there?"
Wei Jinzhi: "That's my father's residence."
"What about over there?"
"It's my father's study."
Are they all his father's? Yue Lingyin asked, "Then where do you live?"
Wei Jinzhi pointed to the general's mansion next to him and said, "I have my own mansion."
Yue Lingyin's mind was fixed on the Four-sided Sword, and she couldn't help but ask, "Is your sword also in the General's Mansion? Could you take me to see it?"
Wei Jinzhi didn't know why she was suddenly interested in the sword, but he nodded politely: "Of course, if you want to see it."
His voice was low and gentle, with a reassuring power, and none of the brutality that was rumored.
After hearing this, Yue Lingyin's eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation: "Great, let's go!"
Her tone was filled with eagerness, which made Wei Jinzhi look sideways.
He slightly turned sideways, motioning Yue Lingyin to follow him. The two of them walked through a small connecting door and entered the general's mansion.
Unlike the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, which was filled with hordes of servants, the General's Mansion was exceptionally deserted. Apart from a few servants, there were only the occasional sounds of wind and birdsong.
Yue Lingyin thought that it would be better to be quiet, with fewer people around, so that it would be easier for her to take the Four-Directional Sword and run away.
Yue looked around curiously. The buildings in the general's mansion were simple and elegant, and the courtyard was shaded by green trees and lush flowers and plants. Everything seemed so peaceful and harmonious, as if time was flowing exceptionally slowly here.
A servant came over with his head lowered, carrying something.
"General, this is the breakfast the old lady prepared for you."
Yue Lingyin touched her stomach. She had been exercising all night and forgot to buy anything to eat in the morning. Now she was really a little hungry.
Seeing that Yue Lingyin wanted to eat, Wei Jinzhi asked the servant to put the food on the table in the viewing pavilion.
The breakfast at the Marquis' Mansion was very sumptuous, with a wide variety of food filling the entire table.
There are two types of porridge: one is the crystal green, refreshing and refreshing Bi Geng porridge; the other is the mellow and fragrant glutinous rice porridge.
In addition, the table is also filled with delicious food such as buns, noodles, sesame cakes, and carefully prepared milk tea.
Yue Lingyin enjoyed it without restraint, and especially liked the milk tea with almonds. It was not only sweet and delicious, but also had no fishy taste at all. Every bite seemed to bring her endless satisfaction.
Wei Jinzhi watched her eat quietly with eyes as deep as a dark pool. His gaze slid across her delicate eyebrows and eyes, and lingered on her rosy and moist lips for a moment. A strange emotion surged in his heart.
She was born with a good appearance, with a rosy face and fair skin, which was the kind of look that all men liked.
The matchmaker had carefully chosen the clothes for Yue Lingyin, deliberately revealing her collarbone and bulging breasts... From Wei Jinzhi's perspective, he could see a bit of their whiteness.
He suddenly felt his lips and tongue dry, and he quickly looked away and took a sip of tea to cover it up.
Yue Lingyin put down the cutlery in her hand, and Wei Jinzhi beside her calmly took out a white handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her.
Yue Lingyin took it naturally, wiped the corners of her mouth carefully, and then casually placed the handkerchief on the table.
She stood up and said, "Let's go see the Quartet Sword."
Wei Jinzhi reached out his hand unnoticeably, quietly tucked the handkerchief into his sleeve, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you interested in the Four-Directional Sword?"
Yue Lingyin was startled, her eyes flickering. "I heard the Four Directions Sword could cut through iron like mud, making it a sharp weapon on the battlefield. I just... wanted to take a look. There's nothing else to it."
Wei Jinzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, examining Yue Lingyin, and replied in a cold tone, "The Four Directions Sword has gone through countless slaughters and is stained with too much blood and sin. There's really nothing worth seeing."
His voice was calm, but the aura contained in it made people dare not ignore it.
Yue Lingyin was anxious. How could she possibly do that? Whether or not she stole the sword today was another matter. She wanted to see what the Four-Sided Sword looked like, so she wouldn't steal the wrong one.
She said stubbornly: "I want to see it."
Wei Jinzhi's sharp eyes stared at her deeply, as if they could penetrate her soul.
Yue Ling involuntarily took a step back and asked timidly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Wei Jinzhi's expression didn't change at all. He simply said, "Nothing. Since you want to see it, I'll take you to see it."
Hearing this, Yue Lingyin's eyes flashed with surprise and anticipation, and a bright smile immediately spread across her face.
"Okay, okay, take me to see it."
Wei Jinzhi was very sure that she had ulterior motives. Thinking of the man who was with her yesterday, he felt uncomfortable, so she didn't really want to marry him.
He walked quietly in front to lead the way, and the two of them arrived at the main courtyard gate.
Wei Jinzhi asked her again: "This is my daily resting place. The Four-sided Sword is inside. Do you want to come in with me?"
Yue Lingyin nodded without hesitation: "Of course."
Seeing that she had no sense of crisis at all, Wei Jinzhi's eyes flashed darkly, and he took Yue Lingyin in.
Suddenly, he felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and a strange desire surged in his heart. Thinking of the tea he had just drunk, his face changed and he said coldly, "That's all for today. You go out first."
Seeing that she was about to see the Four-sided Sword, Yue Lingyin didn't want to go out. Not only did she not go out, she also took a step forward and pushed open Wei Jinzhi's door.
A faint scent of pine scent hits you in the face.
Wei Jinzhi closed his eyes and suppressed the turbulent undercurrent in his heart. Since she didn't listen to his advice, he couldn't be blamed for what happened next.
Yue Lingyin exclaimed, "Wow, is this the Four-sided Sword?"
A jet-black sword was placed on the shelf. Yue Lingyin reached out blankly, trying to take the Square Sword down.
Her hand was grasped, and Yue Lingyin woke up as if from a dream. Meeting Wei Jinzhi's dark gaze, she explained stiffly, "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else. I just wanted to try out the feel of it."
There is no silver here.
Wei Jinzhi looked at her guilty expression, and gently pulled her into his arms. He lowered his head slightly, and his warm breath sprayed on her ear. She subconsciously shrank her neck.
His magnetic voice sounded, with a certain allure: "Do you want the Four-sided Sword?"
Yue Lingyin nodded stupidly, then shook her head frantically when she came to her senses.
Wei Jinzhi chuckled: "I can give it to you, but in exchange for yourself."
Yue Lingyin remembered what Feng Mian had said - drinking human blood and eating human flesh. Her little face turned pale instantly. The extreme fear in her heart made her body tremble involuntarily, and her two pink lips trembled slightly, making her look even more pitiful.
She begged: "I'm not tasty, please don't eat me..."
Wei Jinzhi stared at her two rosy and tempting lips: "You'll know whether it tastes good or not after you eat it."
Yue Lingyin's eyes turned red with fear. She looked at Wei Jinzhi with wet eyes, struggling desperately: "I don't want to take a shower. I just ate without rinsing my mouth. I stink."
"I don't mind." A smile flashed in Wei Jinzhi's eyes. In his eyes, her struggle with all her might was just like tickling. It was not threatening at all, but rather like flirting.
