As Sima Jing spoke, she couldn't help but pinch Bai Ruyan's cheek.
This rounded feel is much more comfortable than my own.
At this moment, Sima Jing finally understood why that tyrannical emperor enjoyed bullying her so much.
Who could stand this feeling?
"Oh, Sister Jing, you're so mean!"
Bai Ruyan cried out in surprise, then grabbed it back.
The two women immediately began to frolic in the bathtub.
Just as Sima Jing grabbed Bai Ruyan and was about to tickle her, her expression suddenly froze, and she stared at Bai Ruyan's back in disbelief.
About half a finger's width below Bai Ruyan's shoulder, there was a black, nine-curved lotus flower.
Almost instantly, Sima Jing remembered what An Yuntai had said before.
The reincarnated spirit maiden of the Beiming Sect will have a black lotus pattern on her body!
Sima Jing found it hard to believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world.
"Ruyan, how did you get this black lotus on your back?"
Sima Jing gently stroked Bai Ruyan's back with her fingers and asked casually.
When she asked about it, Bai Ruyan shook her head.
"I don't know where this black lotus came from. I only know that since I can remember, I have had the faint shadow of this lotus on my back, and the lotus becomes clearer with each year I grow older."
Upon hearing this, Sima Jing's face turned serious.
Since the black lotus on Bai Ruyan's body is innate, it means that she may indeed be the reincarnation of the Northern Underworld Sect's spirit maiden.
Is it true that some people in this world can be reincarnated?!
"Ruyan, don't you feel that there are some memories you didn't experience?"
Although Sima Jing also felt that the concept of reincarnation was too far-fetched, she couldn't help but become curious at this moment.
Bai Ruyan shook her head.
Seeing this, Sima Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
For a moment, she worried that she might be facing an old witch hiding in a young body.
"What's wrong, Sister Jing? Is there something wrong with this black lotus on me?"
Seeing Sima Jing's solemn expression, Bai Ruyan couldn't help but ask curiously.
Sima Jing quickly shook her head.
"It's nothing, but you must never tell anyone about this Black Lotus Mark. Remember, it's anyone!"
Sima Jing's expression became much more serious when she said this.
Although An Yuntai didn't explain clearly, Sima Jing gleaned several important pieces of information from his words.
Firstly, this reincarnated spirit maiden is of paramount importance to the Northern Underworld Sect.
Secondly, Sima Lie had not yet obtained the wealth of the Beiming Sect because the reincarnated spirit maiden of the Beiming Sect had disappeared.
Therefore, once Sima Lie and his group learn of Bai Ruyan's existence, Bai Ruyan will inevitably meet with misfortune.
Seeing that Sima Jing didn't seem to be joking, Bai Ruyan nodded.
"Don't worry, sister. Besides the madam of Shuiyun Pavilion, the only other person who knows about this mark on my body is Young Master Bai."
"Young Master Bai?"
Sima Jing looked puzzled.
Bai Ruyan nodded, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"Young Master Bai is the talented man I admire, and also my only lover."
Seeing the infatuated look on Bai Ruyan's face when she talked about this young master Bai, Sima Jing knew that Bai Ruyan had fallen in love with him.
"Ruyan, what is the background of this Young Master Bai? Does he have any official rank or title?"
Sima Jing quickly asked.
Bai Ruyan shook her head.
"I'm not very clear about Young Master Bai's background either. As for his academic achievements, he's still taking the exams, but I believe he'll definitely pass."
However, Sima Jing frowned upon hearing this.
She felt like this was a common plot in storybooks.
Those devoted women gave their bodies and feelings, waiting for their lovers to achieve success in the imperial examinations and marry them in glory, only to be cruelly abandoned by their unfaithful husbands.
"Ruyan, I'm afraid this Young Master Bai isn't a good person. You shouldn't give your heart away so easily."
Sima Jing snorted coldly, already harboring a dislike for the young master Bai whom she had never met.
"I believe that Young Master Bai is sincere towards me, otherwise he would not have written such a heart-wrenching poem for me."
Bai Ruyan quickly shook her head, then said with a lovestruck expression.
However, Sima Jing simply shook her head.
"His poems are quite good, but I wonder if his character is even a tenth as good as his poetry."
Sima Jing looked disdainful.
She didn't believe that men could be so sincere.
Seeing that Sima Jing seemed to be full of malice towards Young Master Bai, Bai Ruyan was not angry. She just smiled and said, "If you are worried about your younger sister, why don't you meet Young Master Bai in person next time he comes? I'm sure you can tell at a glance whether he is a heartless man or not."
After hearing Bai Ruyan's words, Sima Jing pondered for a moment and then nodded.
"Alright, I'd like to see what kind of man my sister is so fond of. When he comes again, you should set a time with him so I can meet him in person."
For some reason, Sima Jing felt a faint sense of anticipation.
She was confident that her taste in men was excellent.
"good."
Bai Ruyan nodded.
She dared not speak for other men, but she was certain that Young Master Bai was absolutely the best man in the world.
When Sima Jing meets him, she will definitely approve of him.
...
Achoo!
In the Begonia Palace, Qin Yu, who was holding Ru Yan who had fallen asleep due to exhaustion, couldn't help but sneeze.
"Who is insulting me?"
Qin Yu couldn't help but complain.
"Mmm~"
At this moment, Ruyan, who was in Qin Yu's arms, opened her sleepy eyes.
"Has Your Majesty caught a cold?"
Ruyan asked with concern.
"It's nothing," Qin Yu shook his head dismissively.
He then looked at Ruyan with shining eyes.
"My beloved concubine, now that you are awake, why don't we continue our pleasures together?"
As Qin Yu spoke, his large hands began to wander restlessly.
Feeling Qin Yu's powerful hand moving around, Ru Yan was on the verge of tears.
"Your Majesty, do you still have the strength?"
Ru Yan felt like her whole body was about to fall apart, but this tyrant was like a bull with inexhaustible energy, always at full strength.
Is this still the same incompetent ruler that the prime minister and others described as weak and on the verge of death?
"Don't worry, my beloved, the one thing I have in abundance is strength."
Qin Yu grinned and immediately insisted on going into battle.
Just as Ruyan gave up struggling and was preparing to accept her fate, a soft knock came from outside the door.
"Who dares to disturb my enjoyment? Do they have a death wish?!"
Being interrupted at such a crucial moment, Qin Yu immediately flew into a rage.
"Your Majesty, Abbot Liu has sent a messenger to say that today is the day when the moonlight gathers, which is the perfect time for cultivating immortality. Therefore, he invites Your Majesty to come to Qingyun Temple to cultivate together."
Anfu's voice rang out from outside the door, neither hurried nor slow.
