Chapter 331 - 331: Unfaithful? (2)
Luo Ning was helpless against the shameless Ye Jingtang. She opened her red lips, took a few sips of water, and then let go of the thin blanket. Based on the mentality that long-term pain was worse than short-term pain, she wanted to help him recuperate and sleep as soon as possible.
Noticing that Ye Jingtang’s gaze was looking down and he wanted to say something but hesitated, Luo Ning understood what he meant without needing words. She sat on his lap, held the little watermelons in her hands, leaned over, and said in disdain, “T-t-this… Seriously… why do you look like a baby who’s not even a month old…”
Ye Jingtang’s eyes were full of smiles. He opened his mouth to receive his reward and placed his hands on the moon. Just as he pinched it twice, he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside.
“Chirp chirp?!”
“Chirp- Come here…”
When Luo Ning heard the voice, she quickly leaned back and moved away. As a result…
Slurp-
When Luo Ning found that Ye Jingtang was still reluctant to part with her, she was so angry that her willowy eyebrows bristled. She raised her hand and knocked the annoying man’s head. “Someone is coming! Hurry up and get out!”
“Alright, don’t be angry…” Ye Jingtang didn’t expect Dumdum to rush over so late at night. He quickly got up, put on his robe, and went downstairs.
It was taboo to put dead people in inns. For this reason, the four corpses were placed diagonally in the alley opposite, with a few ruffians watching over them.
Ye Jingtang walked out of the lobby of the inn and saw Dumdum wearing an extremely eye-catching silver python dress, standing in front of the few corpses to check them.
Daoist Xuanji was holding the bird in her arms and rubbing his head. “Cluck cluck?”
“Chirp-”
Ye Jingtang tidied his robe and quickly walked over. “Your Highness, Fairy Lu, why are you here?”
Daoist Xuanji turned around and walked to the street. “The Prince of Wu has been caught. We had nothing to do tonight, so we came to take a look. You guys chat first. I’ll take it for a walk.”
When Dongfang Liren saw Xuanyuan Hongzhi’s body, her expression was rather ugly. When Ye Jingtang arrived, she frowned and asked, “Jun Mountain Terrace secretly sent people to kill you? Are you injured?”
Ye Jingtang raised his hand casually at the bodies. “It’s just a few people joining forces to send their heads over. I’m fine. 1 know the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade. Jun Mountain Terrace is definitely afraid. It’s not strange for them to do this.”
Dongfang Liren’s eyes turned slightly cold. “Xuanyuan Chao is really impudent. How dare he touch my person…”
Ye Jingtang advised, “Jun Mountain Terrace will insist that Xuanyuan Hongzhi acted on his own accord. If this matter blows up, the most that will happen is the removal of the Marquis of Jun Mountain title. Xuanyuan Hongzhi tried to assassinate an official and was executed according to the law. This case will end here. As for my personal enmity, 1 can settle it with Xuanyuan Chao myself. If Your Highness helps me punish Jun Mountain Terrace, as a member of the Black Office, it will be difficult for me to find an excuse to cause trouble for Jun Mountain Terrace in the future.”
Ye Jingtang wasn’t injured, and Xuanyuan Hongzhi had been beaten to death. No matter how serious this matter became, there would be no way to decapitate Xuanyuan Chao, a founding marquis, in public. Dongfang Liren deliberated for a moment and nodded.
“You know your limits. If you can’t resolve it, tell me. I’ll bring tens of thousands of soldiers to surround Jun Mountain Terrace. At worst, I’ll be scolded by the officials for a few years for being domineering and harming loyal people. They won’t be able to do anything to me.”
Dongfang Liren’s words were domineering, but how could Ye Jingtang let Dumdum bear the infamy because of his own enmity? He only shook his head and smiled…
Meanwhile, in the inn room…
Since the recuperation had been interrupted, Luo Ning obviously couldn’t lie naked on the bed with her big moon raised, waiting for the little thief to return to continue.
After Ye Jingtang put on his clothes and went out, Luo Ning grabbed a dress, put it on neatly inside and out, put her soft sword around her waist, and arranged her hair neatly. Then she stood up and went out, preparing to visit Third Lady, who was alone next door.
But when she reached the door, Luo Ning heard a sound coming from outside.
Puff! Puff!
The sound of the bird flapping it wings…
?
Luo Ning was slightly puzzled. She thought that the bird had seen she was free and came back to ask for food, so she raised her hand and opened the door.
Squeak!
The two doors opened, and the dim yellow light in the room spilled onto the wooden floor in the hallway.
The first thing that entered Luo Ning’s eyes was a slim-fitting white dress with pink flower petals embroidered on the hem. Her legs were very slender, and above them were her graceful hip line and slender waist. There was a red wine gourd hanging at her waist and a sword with a yin-yang fish handguard. Her clothes bulged in front of her chest, drawing a perfect arc.
Farther up was a beautiful and otherworldly face. The corners of her lips were curled up with a hint of evilness, and her clear eyes were looking at her. The fair fingers on her right hand were covering the bird’s eyes…
The big stupid bird thought that they were playing. It stood on her arm adorably and shook its head…
!!
Luo Ning’s cold and unparalleled face suddenly froze, and her eyes widened visibly. She subconsciously moved her hands, wanting to slam the door shut.
Unfortunately, before the door could close completely, someone blocked it with her foot.
When Daoist Xuanji and Luo Ning lived together, Luo Ning had still been a 16-year-old heroine. Although they hadn’t seen each other for more than ten years, Luo Ning practiced the Evergreen Beauty-Retaining Picture. Other than her temperament becoming much more mature, her body had hardly changed. She was still as pink and delicate as before…
Because of this, Daoist Xuanji recognized the beautiful young woman with lingering joy on her face at first glance. Her eyes were full of surprise. “Ning’er?”
Luo Ning’s face turned pale. In her panic, she only wanted to close the door and call Ye Jingtang back to help.
But as a cult mistress, she couldn’t even defeat Third Lady, so how could she be Daoist Xuanji’s match?
Before Luo Ning could exert any strength, Daoist Xuanji had already pushed open the door casually. She threw out the bird, who knew that it had caused trouble and was at a loss, and closed the door.
