Chapter 418: Chapter 173: Empress: There’s always a vixen trying to steal my man! Empress: Oh no, have I become the third wheel?_4
"Greetings, Mr. Chen."
Chen Mo had a special status, almost considered a half-owner of The Cloudwater Hall, and they recognized this.
A maid respectfully said, "Miss Yu’er is currently taking a nap. Shall I go in to inform her?"
"No need."
Chen Mo lifted his leg and walked into the pavilion.
He passed through the front hall, entered the inner chamber, and arrived at the bedroom door.
Just as he was about to knock, he keenly sensed a wave of Primordial Qi.
"Spirit Rhinoceros Formation, Concealing God Array, Surprise Wave Array... three layers of formations embedded, can both conceal the aura and provide early warning."
"What are they doing inside to be so cautious?"
Chen Mo was a bit puzzled.
His eyes flashed with purple-gold light, and the formations unraveled in his sight.
In a short moment, he broke the three formations without causing any disturbance.
Silently and stealthily, he pushed open the door only to find the room empty, except for a black and white dog lazily dozing by the window.
Seeing this "outsider" enter, it just symbolically wagged its tail.
"Where did this dog come from? Seems like it’s a Paper Puppet?"
Just then, muffled sounds came from the bathroom, resembling the voices of Gu Manzhi and Ye Hensui, yet the tone was a bit odd.
"No, stop... Holy Daughter, I can’t go on..."
"So, will you listen to me or your master in the future?"
"Of course, I’ll listen to my master..."
"Yu’er, increase the intensity!"
"Mm!"
"I’ll listen to you, isn’t that enough? Boohoo, I really can’t take it, you’re bullying me..."
"..."
Chen Mo’s expression turned a bit strange.
What had the white-haired girl gone through these past few days?
He walked into the bathroom and was immediately stunned by the scene before him.
In the pool, white mist swirled, with three stunning figures creating a dazzling visual feast.
Gu Manzhi sat at the edge of the pool, her arms crossed over her chest, her long jade legs crossed, appearing as an aloof superior.
Meanwhile, Ye Hensui was soaking in the pool water, with Yu’er entwined around her like a water snake.
Under Yu’er’s relentless assault, Ye Hensui’s eyes, like pink agates, appeared dazed, tears pooled in her eyes as she murmured melodies no one could understand...
She looked exactly like a defeated dog.
Just then, Gu Manzhi suddenly sensed something and swiftly turned her head.
Seeing that it was Chen Mo, her expression relaxed, her rosy lips curved up as she stood up and walked to him.
"My lord, when did you arrive?"
"Just now, this is..."
"This little girl has been disobedient lately. She needs a reminder."
Gu Manzhi leaned against Chen Mo’s chest and softly said, "My lord, we agreed on dual cultivation once every three days, you broke that promise."
Chen Mo replied helplessly, "I went to the Southern Border for business, I couldn’t..."
"I don’t care."
Gu Manzhi deftly unfastened his belt, her cheeks crimson as she softly, enticingly said, "I’ve been counting the days, you need to make up for it ~"
Looking at her beauty, radiant like a flower, Chen Mo swallowed and lifted her up, her long jade legs wrapping around his waist.
"My lord..."
Her peach blossom eyes were about to overflow with water.
Chen Mo holding the smooth curve, absentmindedly said, "Manzhi, have you heard of Daji?"
Gu Manzhi shook her head blankly, "Never heard of her."
Chen Mo said, "She was a concubine of King Zhou in ancient times, quite similar to you, also a seductive enchantress causing the downfall of a nation."
Gu Manzhi pouted, dissatisfied, "I’m not an enchantress!"
Chen Mo chuckled and continued on his own, "One day, they say, King Zhou was having tea at the Zhaixing Tower, and Daji was serving, but she forgot to change the tea leaves brewed from the previous day... guess what happened?"
Gu Manzhi blinked curiously, "What happened?"
Chen Mo grinned, "Unintentionally, Daji poured the old tea right inside!"
?
Gu Manzhi hadn’t caught up, her expression suddenly changed.
She then took a deep breath, her slender hand pressing against Chen Mo’s chest, her voice trembling:
"My-my lord?!"
Chen Mo cleared his throat, "Ahem, sorry, I told the story wrong... it should be Daji who poured the old tea into the vat."
"..."
Gu Manzhi glared at him in shame and annoyance, biting her lip, "My lord did it on purpose! Such a naughty boy!"
