"Worse than an animal?" Is this a veiled insult?
Nan Yang huddled under the bed, brushing the rotten vegetable leaves off his face, his teeth grinding together. This Mu Sijin is really damn annoying, no wonder the Emperor wants to kill him!
But it doesn't matter. His father has already been ordered by the emperor to have him assassinated in the street. No matter how proud he is, he won't be proud for long.
Nan Yang was comforting himself with the saying "A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years" when he suddenly saw a search badge, a special badge for the Wenyuan Pavilion, hanging in front of him.
Si Jin's voice rang out immediately: "Officials' sons are not allowed to enter and leave Manjiang Tower more than three times a month. How many times has Young Master Nan come?"
Because of his numerous arrests, Nan Yang was instinctively afraid of the waist tag. The moment he stood up, *bang*—
He hit his head on the floor of the bed and winced in pain.
Having finally crawled out from under the bed, she angrily retorted, "Mu Sijin, this is a matter for the Wenyuan Pavilion, it's none of your business as an outsider!"
"Yes, it's not my place to interfere. I just simply don't like the look of you!" With that, the smile on his face vanished, and he kicked Nan Yang onto a nearby table.
Splash—
The table was knocked over, and the memorial tablet of the original owner's friend fell down. Si Jin gently picked it up and wiped it with her sleeve.
"Sister-in-law," he called out, his voice unusually cold, "If you're going to be a whore, don't try to act virtuous. It's disgusting."
Su Liuliu was so frightened by Si Jin's glare that she dared not move. Only after everyone had left did she dare to close the door and go to help the disheveled Nan Yang.
… …
Once outside, Si Jin immediately smashed Nan Yang's carriage to pieces and then parked her own magnificent carriage next to it.
Only after confirming that he had sufficiently provoked Nan Yang's anger did he turn back to Manjiang Tower.
Wasn't the Heavenly Emperor planning to use someone else to do his dirty work? Well, he'll give that old beast a real lesson, showing him what true...
Borrow a knife to kill someone.
Back inside the building, he was stopped by Sheng Yu as soon as he stepped onto the stairs.
Sheng Yu was cautious in his dealings and spoke politely: "Young Master, I have settled Mo Qi in. My master said he will not leave tonight; he is waiting for you in Room Number One of the Heavenly Class."
"Okay." Si Jin nodded, said goodbye to Sheng Yu, and pushed open the door to room number one.
Upon entering, one hears the sound of flowing water, and the room is illuminated by red lanterns, creating an unreal, dreamlike atmosphere.
He placed the memorial tablet in the outer room, then closed the door and went inside.
The No. 1 room was enormous, with two separate inner rooms. One was a bedroom, and on the shelves were rows of interesting items...
But there was no one inside.
Si Jin turned around and went out to the hot spring.
Although it is called a hot spring, it is quite different from the hot springs we usually see.
The room was covered with vines, from which hung a few firefly lanterns, scattering faint light in the night.
Most importantly, a hammock was suspended indoors by vines.
Less than a foot below the hammock was a steaming hot spring.
On the hammock was a beautiful fox-like woman dressed in white.
Perhaps he found the clothes in the bedroom, because Sheng Linyuan was wearing a white robe with the front unbuttoned and just hanging loosely.
Her well-defined, toned abs were faintly visible, complementing the white fox tail around her waist, creating a seductive and alluring effect.
At this moment, Sheng Linyuan's dark hair was wet and disheveled, and he was wearing a white fox ear headband.
It was lazily looking down, reaching out to fiddle with the warm water in the pool.
Hearing that someone had arrived, they seemed to have discovered some pleasant surprise, and extended an invitation with smiles on their faces.
"Young master, the water temperature is just right. Would you like to bathe together?"
