Punishment?
Gu Mu's goal was to make Shen Ling happy, accumulate male lead points, defy the heavens to rewrite the story, and become the protagonist of this novel.
How could you bear to punish them?
Although his nerves were temporarily paralyzed by the poisonous insects, those insects left after Shen Ling departed.
Gu Mu's body had, after all, been strengthened by the system's pills.
He began to use his internal energy to expel the toxins from his body.
Gu Mu's internal energy, which had originally collapsed into a small point, with the mass remaining unchanged but the density increasing, freed up more space in his sea of consciousness.
The potential for internal growth is even greater.
Although the Body Strengthening Pill and the Spirit Pill are currently undergoing upgrades and cannot be taken, Gu Mu still persists in his cultivation.
Therefore, his internal strength is also increasing little by little, far exceeding that of ordinary people.
This is why he can quickly sense when someone gets close to him.
With his profound internal strength, he finally managed to expel the toxins from his body after half an hour.
Although the movements were still very stiff, they were able to move with difficulty.
He went back to his room, intending to call his lively maid to pour him the hot bathwater.
But as soon as he called out, he saw the fierce maid squatting beside his bathtub, sobbing incessantly.
Other girls cry like nightingales, delicate and pitiful, but she cries like a barbell, making people want to laugh.
Gu Mu couldn't help but wonder what had happened to this fierce maid that made her shed tears.
So he leaned closer and said, "What's wrong? Is it too much trouble for you to pour my bathwater?"
The fierce maid was squatting on the ground, hugging her knees with her hands and burying her head in her arms.
Hearing Gu Mu's roar, he finally looked up.
Gu Mu then realized that the lively maid had ended up in such a terrible state.
Her face, from the eyes down, was covered in blood, and it was the kind of blood that smelled foul.
Gu Mu took a step back in disgust.
The fierce maidservant wailed even louder: "Your Highness...Your Highness...You must do justice for me!!!"
"You're already disgusted just by looking at it!!! But this servant... this servant not only saw it, but also had her first kiss stolen by such a disgusting thing..."
"Awooo... Awooo... Awooo..."
"How am I ever going to get married?!"
"What's going on?" Gu Mu was already used to the wild and crazy behavior of this maid.
The original owner kept the fierce maid because she was stupid but efficient.
Gu Mu kept the wild maid because he had received modern education that everyone should be equal, and he could tolerate some of the wild maid's unruly behavior.
So, even though the fierce maid was crying and making a scene in front of him, and couldn't explain something clearly, Gu Mu still patiently asked her again.
"It!!!" the fierce maidservant shouted angrily, pointing at the parchment scroll, "My mortal enemy!!!"
In another corner of the room, a parchment scroll lay innocently rolled up at all four corners.
Then he shook his body.
It waits for its master to praise it.
As a very good sycophant, it did a great thing for its master today!
It can only have a good life if it can please its master.
The fierce maidservant was even angrier at the sight of the sheepskin scroll's arrogant demeanor.
In addition, Gu Mu was waiting for her to explain things clearly, so the fierce maid recounted what had happened with a look of fear on her face.
"Your Highness, please instruct me to personally pour you the heated bathwater!"
"I've poured you the bath. I'm going to knock on the study door to tell you to take a bath..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Mu frowned, realizing something was amiss.
He and Shen Ling were so engrossed in playing in the room that they didn't hear anyone knocking on the study door.
The next second, Gu Mu heard the maid's words and knew what had happened. He looked at the parchment scroll with admiration, giving it a look that only men could understand.
The fierce maidservant said with a face full of grief and indignation, "But it stopped me from calling His Highness to take a bath!!! Of course, I haven't forgotten His Highness's instructions, I must knock on the door and call His Highness no matter what..."
"And then this parchment scroll, utterly disregarding all martial ethics, stopped me!!!"
"Moreover, to prevent me from screaming, it used its filthy body to tightly cover my mouth!!!"
"Its foul-smelling blood even dripped into my mouth!!!"
"I wanted to tear it off my face, rip it apart, and burn it to death in the fire!!! But this thing was as thick as steel, and it even danced on the fire..."
The fierce maid felt increasingly aggrieved, and then she burst into tears again.
The loud, booming cry made Gu Mu want to laugh more and more.
The parchment scroll kept rolling up its four corners and then letting them down, as if it were trying to curry favor with Gu Mu.
Gu Mu quietly gave the parchment scroll a thumbs up.
Sure enough, the parchment scroll was so happy that it danced in the air again.
To the fierce maid, all of this was a provocation.
She was even more devastated.
"Go wash your face," Gu Mu said sympathetically to the fierce maid.
Although she was his personal maid, she was not his woman after all. She dared to try to ruin his plans and didn't expect him to stand up for her.
Since she was so upset, she should have washed her face long ago, instead of leaving the evidence in Gu Mu's room looking pitiful, waiting for Gu Mu to stand up for her and praise the parchment scroll.
