Just thinking about it made his hands itch.
He wanted to do them one by one.
Xie Xingyun tried his best to restrain himself and sighed softly. If he revealed his true nature in front of her one day, she would cry at the drop of a hat. He would probably scare her to tears.
The last woman was Mu Rong, a daughter of the Mu family in Peizhou.
She was different from the other women. After she arrived, she ignored Xiao Zheng and walked straight in. She looked very arrogant, but she had put in a lot of effort into her makeup. Every part of her outfit was exquisite, accentuating her ordinary appearance with a noble aura.
âYoung Marquis?â Mu Rong smiled and walked towards Xie Xingyun, looking at him boldly.
Mu Rongâs expression froze for a moment when she saw the ambiguous marks on Xie Xingyunâs slightly wet collar.
Bai Xianyuâs sleepiness was completely dispelled by Xie Xingyunâs words just now. She glanced out of the screen and at the teapot close by.
After sitting for so long, she was a little thirsty.
The screen was blocking her so she probably could not see clearly.
Hence, Bai Xianyu shifted her position to reach for the teapot.
Mu Rong froze for a moment before she immediately regained her smile. âYoung Marquis, why did you come out in a disheveled state? Shall I help you tidy up?â
Xie Xingyun glanced at her coldly. âNo need.â
There was silence on the boat for a few seconds before Mu Rongâs voice sounded again. â1 heard that the Young Marquis hates women getting close to him the most. Ordinary men would already have a sweetheart by now, but the Young Marquis doesnât have anyone by his side. Now, you deliberately meet me like this. Are you testing my feelings?â
Bai Xianyu glanced out of the screen.
âHeâs not testing your feelings. Heâs trying to extinguish your intentions.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She shook her head and poured herself a cup of tea.
At this moment, Bai Li finally took advantage of Xiao Zhengâs drowsiness to break the rope. He kicked the deck hard and jumped to the second floor of the pleasure boat!
Xiao Zheng immediately sobered up and exclaimed, âBrother Bai!â
Bai Li chuckled. âCut the crap. Iâm taking my Miss away now!â
When Xiao Zheng saw this, he immediately jumped up and chased after him!
Bai Xianyu was about to drink tea when the boat suddenly swayed. She lost her center of gravity, almost falling down!
Fortunately, she grabbed the edge of the carved window and stabilized herself!
Just when she was feeling a lingering fear, there was another violent tremor. She had to exert all her strength to not fall, but the tea in the teacup fell out under the continuous movements!
Bai Xianyu cursed inwardly.
Outside the screen, Xie Xingyun did not move, but Mu Rong stumbled and fell to the ground⦠She saw tea leaves and water stains splattered on the ground, and the moment she fell, she saw a white dress flash past!
Mu Rong felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Just now, she thought that Xie Xingyun was testing her, but she never expected that there was actually a woman in this pleasure boat!
She grabbed the deck with her fingers. âYoung Marquis, 1 think thereâs a sister inside. Why donât you let her come out and meet?â
With that, she rushed in without waiting for Xie Xingyun to answer!
She wanted to see who it was!
Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes and stood in front of Bai Xianyu before her.
When Bai Xianyu heard the commotion, she immediately put on the cone hat again. As soon as she put it on, Xie Xingyun blocked her tightly.
Mu Rong saw the hem of the manâs black robe and took a step back in shock, but she still refused to give up.
God knew how happy she was when she heard her mother say that she had a chance to marry Xie Xingyun!
But now, he was actually hugging a woman and rubbing her ears and hair on the pleasure boat, messing up his robe!
Mu Rong tried to see the womanâs face clearly, but she was still wearing a cone hat and her figure was completely blocked. She could not see her clearly at all.
She gritted her teeth and said, âYoung Marquis, who is this sister? Is she a maidservant?!â
Xie Xingyunâs voice was cold. âSheâs my sweetheart.â
Bai Xianyu looked up in his arms.
âI donât believe it!â Mu Rong was about to rush forward aggressively, but she froze in the next second!
The man lowered his head and lifted the veil in front of the woman. He picked her up effortlessly and kissed her lips.
It was a light kiss. More like a placating kiss.
But it seemed to be slowed down by dozens of times by Mu Rong.
Xie Xingyun turned around, his eyes cold. âYou can get lost now.â
Mu Rong looked at the two of them stubbornly, then⦠ran out in tears.
Seeing that her cries were far away, Bai Xianyu sat down again and patted his chest nervously. âYou scared me. Whatâs wrong with this pleasure boat? Itâs swaying.â
Xie Xingyun took off her cone hat and said without changing his expression, âMaybe itâs the waves.â
âOh.â Bai Xianyu stretched. âDidnât you say just now that you wanted to send me to Liangjiao Alley? Can we leave now?â
Xie Xingyun smiled meaningfully. âOf course..â
