Jiang Li was startled and quickly grabbed Shen Tingsi's hand and led him to the closet in the room.

He hid in the closet before the person outside opened the door.

The wardrobe was small and could barely accommodate Jiang Li and Shen Tingsi.

Jiang Li and Shen Tingsi hid in the closet and observed the situation in the room through the hollow space on the closet.

When Jiang Li was inquiring about the situation in the room, Shen Tingsi's eyes were always on her hand holding his.

My heartbeat unconsciously quickened.

Crunch——

The door was pushed open from the outside.

Jiang Li was so nervous that she grabbed Shen Tingsi's hand with even more strength.

Shen Tingsi's eyes darkened.

"Hey, where did you put it?"

The waiter from Jinse Tower walked in and went straight to the inner room, looking for something in the room.

Looking at the servant's clothes swinging constantly, Jiang Li held her breath and didn't even dare to breathe.

The guy searched the room and finally walked straight to the closet where the two were.

Jiang Li's heart instantly rose to her throat!

Sensing her nervousness, Shen Tingsi held her hand and looked out through the carved hollow on the wardrobe with her.

When the clerk came to the cabinet, he grabbed the handle with both hands and was about to open the cabinet.

"What are you dithering about? Have you found it?"

Another clear voice came from outside the door, and the waiter subconsciously turned his head to look.

After seeing the person coming, he walked forward with a flattering look on his face: "Why is Miss Susu here?"

The woman called Su Su rolled her eyes at the waiter in displeasure: "You are so slow in getting something, what's the point of having a bunch of you useless people?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I am slow. Miss Susu, wait a moment. I will go find you the silk shirt that Madam Hong mentioned."

As the clerk was about to walk towards the cabinet again, Su Su called him.

"Isn't the silk shirt hanging there? Where are you going to find it?"

Su Su walked towards the silk shirt hanging on the rack in front of the window with an unhappy look on her face.

The waiter turned his head and saw that the silk shirt was really hanging on the rack beside the bed. He scratched his head in confusion, wondering why he didn't see it just now?

Su Su took a silk shirt off the shelf. Because it was too long, she had to raise her arms to prevent the hem of her skirt from touching the ground.

Seeing the waiter standing there in a daze, Su Su scolded him, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you come over and take the silk shirt to my room?!"

“Yes, yes!”

The waiter was so frightened that he shuddered. Su Su was favored by several noblemen, and he dared not offend her in the slightest! The waiter carefully took the silk shirt from Su Su's hand and apologized to her in a flattering manner.

But Su Su refused to give in and glared at the waiter angrily: "I think you are delaying time on purpose to make me look bad on the stage? Tell me, who told you to do this?"

As she spoke, she pinched the waiter's ear mercilessly, causing the waiter to scream in pain: "Miss Susu, let go, let go quickly! It hurts! I didn't mean to do this, no one told me to do this!"

"Humph, I think you did it on purpose. If I make a fool of myself on stage later, I'll make you pay!"

"Miss Susu, I am wronged!"

After successfully getting the silk shirt, the waiter's cries of pain and Su Su's nagging voice became increasingly distant. Jiang Li didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the door was closed again.

"Huh, we're finally gone."

Jiang Li then realized that she was still holding Shen Tingsi's hand, and quickly let go as if she was holding a hot potato.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen. The situation was urgent just now. I was in a hurry and made an offensive move. I hope Mr. Shen will forgive me."

His hand felt empty and Shen Tingsi subconsciously tightened it, holding her remaining warmth tightly in his palm.

An indescribable emotion flashed across Shen Tingsi's eyes, but the cabinet was narrow and dark, so Jiang Li didn't notice it.

"No problem."

"The people have already left, let's go out first."

Jiang Li said as she pushed open the cabinet door and stood up. Just as she was about to get out of the cabinet, she suddenly felt a pulling force behind her, and then her body suddenly fell backwards due to inertia! Shen Tingsi quickly reached out to help her.

With a thud, Jiang Li fell into the arms of Shen Tingsi who was about to get up! The space in the cabinet was small and quiet, and the warm breaths of the two instantly intertwined.

Jiang Li's eyes widened as she looked at Shen Tingsi in astonishment. In the flickering light, ripples appeared in Shen Tingsi's deep, bottomless phoenix eyes.

His heart started beating wildly again because of her intrusion.

This wonderful feeling has been with Shen Tingsi for many days.

It seemed...it started from the day she first broke into his arms.

Neither of them spoke to each other, they just stared at each other in the quiet and small space.

Let your face be reflected in the other person's pupils.

Jiang Li fell into Shen Tingsi's arms, holding his arms tightly with both hands.

Shen Tingsi put one arm around Jiang Li's slender waist and supported her body with his broad and strong chest.

Because the distance was too close, Shen Tingsi's warm breath sprayed all over Jiang Li's face, quickly dyeing her cheeks a light blush.

It makes her look even more charming and beautiful.

Every expression of hers was clearly imprinted in Shen Tingsi's sight; her every frown, smile, and gesture were lingering in his mind.

Looking at her two tender pink lips that were like a flower bud about to bloom, Shen Tingsi's Adam's apple slid slightly and he lowered his head uncontrollably.

His enchanting face instantly magnified in Jiang Li's pupils. Jiang Li's brain went blank and she watched him approaching her.

Shen Tingsi followed his heart and moved closer to the pink lips that were about to bloom.

Three centimeters, two centimeters, one centimeter...

Under the influence of hormones, Shen Tingsi finally got his wish and kissed those soft and charming cherry lips.

The moment his thin lips touched her, Jiang Li suddenly came back to her senses as if she had received an electric shock! !

She widened her eyes, suddenly pushed Shen Tingsi away, and then fled as if there were wolves and tigers chasing her! After seeing Jiang Li fleeing from his arms, Shen Tingsi raised his hand and slowly touched his thin lips, which seemed to still have her warmth.

Shen Tingsi chuckled, his thin lips slightly raised, he lifted his robe and got out of the closet.

Even though this action was not very elegant, Shen Tingsi still performed it with dignity and elegance.

Shen Tingsi walked towards the door and paused when passing by the landscape painting hanging on the stone wall, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Just now when he sneaked into the room to take Jiang Li away, he heard the conversation between the masked man and the accountant, and realized that Jinse Tower was not as simple as it seemed, a brothel for people to have fun.

Previously, two prefects had died mysteriously in Jinse Tower. It seemed that the two prefects had accidentally learned the secret of Jinse Tower, which led to their deaths.

Jiang Li had no idea about the masked man, but Shen Tingsi knew one thing.

Zhou Qingyuan was not born into an official family. Before he entered the court, his ancestors were ordinary people.

I heard his father was a famous ventriloquist...
