When Luo Ming saw that the little thief’s expression and aura were normal, and his face even had a rosy luster, her worried heart was mostly relieved. But then her originally worried expression turned cold. She let go of him, quickly fixed her blue undergarment, and hugged her little watermelons. “Hmph!”

After putting away the flame stick, Pei Xiang]tin turned around. Although she was dressed very skimpily, her chest wrap covered more than an undergarment after all, and only her shoulders and waist were exposed. She moved forward and held Ye Jingtang’s wrist to check.

Ye Jingtang was lying in the middle and was examined by the two nurses. He really couldn’t take it anymore and directly closed his eyes. “I’m really fine. Third Lady, please put on your clothes.”

Dressing like this, Pei Xiangjun didn’t even know what to say. She raised her hands and untied the black dress tied around Ye Jingtang’s wrists.

Luo Ning’s thoughts gradually calmed down, and doubts appeared in her heart. She looked at the charming and hot female boss opposite her. “Third Lady, why are you here?”

Pei Xiangjun untied the blue dress and handed it to Luo Ning. “I was afraid that something might happen to Jingtang, so I secretly followed… I’m a helm master of the Azure Dragon Hall. Miss Ning’er, put on your clothes.”

Luo Ning was skeptical, but she didn’t ask further. She took rhe dress and put it on.

The lying Ye Jingtang watched the two girls wear dresses, feeling quite strange. ’TH get up myself. Don’t be nervous.¹¹

Then he raised his legs and lowered them. His back suddenly bounced up.

Boom!

The two women were putting on their clothes with their own thoughts when they suddenly noticed Ye Jingtang, who was tied up like a caterpillar, bounce up vigorously. From the looks of it, he wanted to flip over Third Lady elegantly and land on the floor. Bur he clearly made a mistake in his exerting strength. With a whoosh, he suddenly soared into the air and collided with the old roof beam.

“Ah?!”

Bam!

The beam trembled from the impact of his head, startling the bird on the roof.

?!

The two women were stunned.

Ye Jingtang panicked and fell headfirst. Halfway down, while trying to stabilize his body, he broke the ropes around his body, spun in the air, and fell back onto the bed frame.

Pei Xiangjun was shocked and hurriedly raised her hand to catch him. In the end, the tall Ye Jingtang directly pressed her down.

Plop!

Ye Jingtang fell onto the bed, and his face smacked two airbags. It didn’t hurt. He hurriedly got up, got off the bed, rook two steps back, and said awkwardly, “Ahem… 1 feel that my breathing is a little unstable. I didn’t perform well. I’m fine…”

After Pei Xiangjun fell onto the bed frame, she stared at Ye Jingtang with wide eyes. She covered her chest with her hands and looked at him suspiciously, wondering if he had done it on purpose.

Luo Ning’s eyes were complicated as she said coldly, “You fell so accurately. 1 think your performance is quite normal.”

Ye Jingtang felt a little embarrassed. He pulled off the broken ropes on his body and turned around. “What a blunder. You two get dressed while I go out to check the surroundings.”

Then he opened the wooden door, went out, and closed it again.

Click.

The room fell silent.

Luo Ning maintained a cold and fairy-like expression as she fastened her collar. She was already very thin-skinned. Now that she recalled applying watermelon cream in front of Third Lady last night, her eyes were a little embarrassed.

Although Pei Xiangjun didn’t do anything too extreme, her face had been burning when she saw the cult mistress rubbing Ye Jingtang’s face for a long time as if she were feeding a baby. She lowered her head and tied her belt. After a while, she said softly, “Last night was an emergency. Miss Ning’er, don’t take it to heart.”

“Yes. It’s been hard on you, Third Lady. There was a misunderstanding last time. 1 hope you didn’t mind my inconsiderate words.”

“Miss Ning’er, you’re joking. I know it s a misunderstanding, so why would I take it to heart?”

Luo Ning nodded gently. Thinking of how she had asked Third Lady to wipe the watermelon cream yesterday, and then Third Lady did it without any hesitation, she felt strange and whispered, “Third Lady, you like Jingtang too, right?”

?!

Pei Xiangjun raised her eyes and looked at the cult mistress. “Miss Ning’er, this question is unusual. Jingtang is a member of my Pei family. It’s only natural for me to care about him…”

This could be considered as avoiding the topic.

Luo Ning tied her collar and said calmly, “We’re just having a private chat. If you really like him, as long as 1 don’t say anything, Jingtang probably won’t say anything…”

?

When Pei Xiangjun heard this, an indescribably complicated expression appeared on her originally calm face.

She understood what she meant: As long as I nod, Jingtang will welcome you.

These words were indeed thinking for her sake, but they sounded so strange… It was as if the wife was welcoming a concubine…

Putting aside the fact that Jingtang is the young master of the Pei family, even if I really have any thoughts, Jingtang should be the one to make the decision…

Pei Xiangjun deliberated for a moment. “Let s talk about these things in the future. Speaking of which, when you and Jingtang got together, I was against it at first and didn’t agree. Jingtang said good things to me for a long time before 1 agreed to this matter. Fortunately, I agreed. Otherwise, Jingtang would have missed out on such a good girl like you.”

“…?” Luo Ning’s beautiful peach blossom eyes moved. She understood what she meant and threw her original tolerance and acceptance aside. “Was there such a thing?”

“Cough!” A muffled cough suddenly came from outside the room. Lr seemed that Ye Jingtang’s condition suddenly acted up.

The expressions of the two women, who were about to fight, changed, and they hurriedly got up and ran out.

The weather was slightly cold, and the sun was rising in the east.

The old temple was located between mountains. There used to be a village nearby, but it had long been abandoned. There wasn’t a single person within several kilometers.

Ye Jingtang walked out of the old room and went to the backyard of the temple that was overgrown with weeds. The bird, who had been waiting at a high place for the entire night, quickly flew over and landed on his shoulder. It hugged his face with its wings and rubbed it. “Chirp chirp chirp-”

Obviously, apart from the two women being frightened last night, there was also the bird, who had a mutual reliance with Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang carried the bird down and scratched the white feathers on its stomach with his fingers. He faced the endless eastern sky and took a deep breath. “Phew…”

Yesterday, although he had ‘suffered¹ from being poisoned by bone-burning hemp, now that he woke up, he found that he felt much more refreshed.

It was hard to describe the exact feeling. It felt as though he had gone for a health treatment session last night. There was cupping, scraping, back massage with essential oil, tui na massage, and bone-setting massage all in one package… Every pore was breathing. His ears were clear, his eyes were bright, and he was full of energy. No matter if it was a man or a woman, he was confident that he could do ten of them.

Yesterday, Ye Jingtang had discovered that the bead should be an extremely effective medicine. Now, he was even more certain of this.

But Cheng Shilu had soon felt unbearable pain until he had collapsed and jumped off the cliff. It was obvious that he wasn’t pretending.

Although his limbs had been a little out of control and his body had been burning red, it had indeed nor been unbearable. It felt more like a sauna.

He had absorbed more of rhe medicine. The only reason for this difference was because of his physique. It was similar to how some people couldn’t eat spicy food at all, but some people could eat ghost peppers. His poison resistance might be higher…

Ye Jingtang stood in the desolate courtyard and breathed for a moment. Before he could figure out anything, he suddenly heard faint voices in the room.

“As long as I don’t say anything, Jingtang probably won’t say anything…¹¹

“When you and Jingtang got together, I was against it at first and didn’t agree…” ?

Ye Jingtang’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t need to deduce to know that if the two of them continued chatting like this, they would definitely drag him into the confrontation.

Then Heroine Luo would beat him up, Third Lady would leave angrily, or even more tragic, they would double-team him. After beating him up, they would pull each other’s hair…

Ye Jingtang pressed his chest. “Cough!’¹

“Chirp?!” The bird was instantly startled, lr hurriedly rubbed its head against Ye Jingtang, probably saying: Don’t die. What will happen to the bird if you die…

Clatter!

The door and window were knocked open, and two women in wrinkled clothes landed in front of the wall at the same time.

Pei Xiangjun held Ye Jingtang’s shoulder. “What’s wrong?”

Luo Ning held his wrist and checked his pulse carefully. “There’s nothing wrong with his pulse…”

Tm a little thirsty. I haven’t had a single drop of water since the meal yesterday afternoon. Let’s go find a place to eat.”

Ye Jingtang rubbed his stomach, picked up his spear, and walked out. When the bird heard that it was going to eat, it became energetic and ran our.

Luo Ning’s and Pei Xiangjun s eyes flashed with suspicion, but they didn’t say anything in the end.. They walked forward and continued to examine his body…
