"And what about you?" Shen Zhiyi asked, resting her chin on her hand as she looked at him. "Aren't you afraid of being lonely?"
What do you do to amuse yourself when you're bored?
Qingyuan turned his gaze and stared intently at her. "You really want to know?"
Shen Zhiyi nodded honestly.
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated."
Since she wanted to be his sweetheart, she naturally wanted to know as much about him as possible.
Qingyuan's mind stirred slightly.
“I’ve been sleeping in the deep sea,” he said. “I only woke up when I sensed some kind of presence.”
"What kind of aura is that?" Shen Zhiyi asked curiously.
The performance ended.
The teahouse patrons stood up and moved about.
Amidst the clamor of the crowd, Qingyuan heard a slow and clear sound emanating from her own heart.
Among countless mixed scents, the sweet and delicate fragrance of gardenia emanating from her was clearly discernible.
His heart, too, beat wildly amidst the noise.
"nothing."
He turned his head away and stopped looking at her.
Shen Zhiyi scoffed, "Fine, don't tell me then."
“But you monsters have such a keen sense of smell,” she remarked. “You can even smell things in the sea.”
Qingyuan: ...
Private rooms on the third floor.
Li Xianchuan sat opposite a Taoist priest, staring intently at the divination chart on the table.
"How about it?"
"Was it caused by a demon?!"
He clutched his groin, his face contorted with resentment.
He must find out exactly who stole his manhood!
The Taoist priest was horrified after reading the divination results.
"this……"
He looked at Li Xianchuan with difficulty, "This demon has an extraordinary background. If it reveals heavenly secrets..."
Li Xianchuan auctioned off a gold ingot.
Taoist priest: "I..."
Li Xianchuan then offered another gold ingot, saying, "If you find this demon, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."
The Taoist priest put away the two gold ingots, his face beaming with undisguised joy.
"I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly for Young Master Li!"
He brought out the compass.
After muttering incoherently for a while, the hands started spinning wildly.
Then, it points to a certain place.
The Taoist priest was greatly alarmed.
"This demon is actually right here!"
Li Xianchuan's eyes widened. He stood up and ran to the outside of the private room in an odd posture, looking down along the horizontal bar in the corridor.
To my surprise, I saw Shen Zhiyi's figure!
It's her!
He caught a glimpse of the tall man standing beside her.
Despite wearing an unassuming navy blue top, her elegance was still undeniable.
The two chatted and laughed.
The man even adjusted the hairpin in her hair for her.
Then, the two looked at each other, and then both turned their heads away.
This atmosphere... it's definitely not innocent!
Li Xianchuan clenched his fists so tightly that they made a clicking sound.
"Chen, Zhi, Yi!" He gritted his teeth, his face contorted. "I never imagined you'd rather be with a demon than accept my advances!"
She must have instructed that demon to steal her manhood!
Li Xianchuan's eyes burned with hatred.
"Do you think that after you've ruined me like this, I won't do anything to you?"
"How naive, how laughable!"
He will definitely find a way to kill that monster.
Make Shen Zhiyi pay the price!
He would make her kneel before him and lick his feet!
Li Xianchuan flung his sleeves and entered the house.
He closed the door to the private room and sat down with a gloomy expression.
"Taoist priest, you just said you had a way to help me capture the demon?"
...
Shen Zhiyi took Qingyuan back to the mansion.
Dui'er said happily, "Miss, the cold spring has been repaired."
"So fast?!" Shen Zhiyi exclaimed in astonishment.
Dui'er hummed twice, "The craftsmen said that the reward given by the young lady was enough, and they didn't even have lunch. They worked hard all day long!"
Digging a pond is not difficult.
They simply made a few extra things according to the blueprints, which took them a whole day.
Shen Zhiyi nodded and took Qingyuan's hand.
"Come with me to take a look."
