Сун Синчжи жил во времена правления императора Хуэйцзуна

Глава 59

By this time, the effects of the sleeping potion in the room had worn off, and he was indeed quite tired after a long day. He said, "I'm going to rest now. Thank you both for your hard work."

"We dare not," the two attendants said in unison.

Xi Ri nodded, turned around, closed the door, went inside, climbed onto the bed fully clothed, and looked at the two door gods at the door. He thought to himself: Zhang Guiyi, Zhang Guiyi, when are you coming? Now, I am so eager for you to come. Whether I stick my neck out or not, I will be killed anyway. Let's finish this quickly. If I wait any longer, I will be dragged down by you.

He cursed Zhang Guiyi as he gradually fell asleep.

In her sleep, she suddenly felt someone sighing softly beside her, and a pair of cold fingers caressing her cheek. Xi Ri was startled and suddenly opened her eyes. In a daze, she saw a figure. After her vision adjusted to the darkness, she gradually saw the person beside the bed. It was the follower who had just captured the thief!

How could he be by her bedside? And why was he looking at her and touching her like that!

This was a terrible shock. An ominous premonition instantly spread throughout her body, making her feel involuntarily cold.

Her intuition told her that this person was not the original attendant who was with her, but must be an imposter in disguise.

A strong and intense feeling came over me: He is Zhang Guiyi, he is Zhang Guiyi!

At that moment, the man realized she was awake and softly asked, "My beauty, do you know who I am?"

And this voice seems familiar!

***********

His voice was very distinctive, and I vaguely remembered it. After a moment of thought, I suddenly realized that the voice belonged to Baiyun, who had arrived after the competition had started.

How could it be him?

Xi Ri was secretly startled and struggled to move, but found that she could not move no matter what she did. In an instant, she was so anxious that she was drenched in sweat.

The person beside the bed watched her struggle coldly, and seemed quite satisfied when she gave up.

Xi Ri tried to calm herself down, because she knew that she should be even more composed in times like these.

He chuckled softly and said, "Why don't you ask who I am?"

Xi Ri hesitated for a moment, then said disdainfully, "Aren't you just my follower? Do you think you're Zhang Guiyi, the second-in-command of Mount Da Luo, whom I admire?!"

The man was clearly taken aback by her words and paused slightly. "You admire Zhang Guiyi?"

“Of course,” Xi Ri replied immediately.

"Why?" the man asked, seemingly quite interested in knowing.

Xi Ri sneered, "Why should a mere servant like you know this!"

Instead of getting angry, the man laughed and said, "Do you really think I'm your slave?"

"Your face isn't fake. I've known you for more than just a day or two," Xi Ri scoffed.

She was lying. In fact, she had only known the attendant for a day or two, and she even knew who he was.

But she acted very convincingly; her tone of voice and expressions were incredibly lifelike. Consider this: her acting skills were truly remarkable. The fact that even shrewd people like Minglu and Nalan were fooled by her shows that her acting abilities were absolutely commendable.

Of course, there's another important point: she's very beautiful, and what a beautiful woman says always seems somewhat credible.

The man immediately believed it to some extent, chuckled, and said, "Beauty, look more closely, is this face really your servant's?"

With a wave of her hand, she tore off a human skin mask from her face. Xi Ri's eyes widened as she looked closely and saw that the person in front of her was Zhang Guiyi! He was exactly the same as the Zhang Guiyi in the portrait that Ming Lu had shown her, even the height of the mustache on his lips was exactly the same.

Zhang Guiyi, he really is Zhang Guiyi.

Then, Xi Ri excitedly exclaimed, "Master Zhang, I've been waiting for you for so long!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a man suddenly sprang out from under the bed, a flash of cold light, and a dagger stabbed towards Zhang Guiyi's back.

Zhang Guiyi was slightly taken aback when he heard Xiri's words. In addition, he never expected that there would be someone hiding under the bed. Suddenly, he felt attacked from both sides and had no power to fight back. He could only make a quick decision and pounce on the bed.

But before he could pounce, a copper coin that flew through the air struck his pressure points, freezing him in place.

At this moment, two people tumbled out of a cabinet on the side of the room. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Ming Lu and Fu Jin.

Zhang Guiyi, frozen in place, was about to open his arms and bend down to hug Tian Xiri on the bed...

Lust is indeed a dangerous thing!

But Zhang Guiyi, you should just accept that you've fallen for the con artist Tian Xiri. Anyway, you're not the first, and you won't be the last.

Zhang Guiyi's eyes were full of disbelief, yet he couldn't see the backs of the three young masters no matter how wide he stared. Although he couldn't move or speak, his eyes were fixed on Xiri on the bed, and even in the darkness, Xiri could still feel the sinister and hateful intent in his eyes.

Stared at like that by him, Xi Ri suddenly felt very scared. She knew that she was going to kill someone today. Although this person deserved to die, she was still a little scared when she thought about what would happen to Zhang Guiyi after he was arrested. She closed her eyes and refused to look anymore, but even if she closed her eyes and tried to avoid it, it was no use.

Zhang Guiyi was skilled in martial arts, but he was distracted by one thing and had to deal with another. Nalan, who suddenly appeared from under the bed, attracted all his attention. In order to avoid Nalan's dagger, he could not pay attention to the copper coins that Minglu shot out. He barely dodged Nalan's stab and only suffered a minor injury to his arm, but he could not avoid Minglu's copper coin acupuncture.

Just then, someone behind them cursed, "You little brat, you made me hide in the closet for most of the night before you finally showed up. I almost... wait a minute!" Just then, Fu Jin, rubbing his stiff, broken arms and legs, moved over. Upon seeing Zhang Guiyi's actions and eyes, he immediately flew into a rage!

Bang! — Fu Jin raised his hand and punched Zhang Guiyi, who fell heavily to the ground. Then, with a series of cracking and thuds, Fu Jin continued to punch and kick Zhang Guiyi, cursing as he did so: "You little brat, you still want to hug Yu-di at a time like this? Do you think you can hug Yu-di? I've never hugged him before!"

Huh? Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Minglu came over and released Xiri's acupoints, asking softly, "Brother Yu, are you alright?"

Xi Ri nodded and said, "I'm fine."

Fu Jin, unaware that he had unintentionally said the wrong thing, continued to beat Zhang Guiyi: "You brat, I'll show you the power of my fists today! I've wanted to beat you up for so long! You little rascal, I've been hiding in the closet, feeling so stifled, all because of you! In my whole life, others have always waited on me, I've never waited on anyone like this before!" *Crackling sounds*, *bang bang*...

Although I didn't dare to watch it that day, one can imagine how badly Zhang Guiyi was beaten by Fu Jin.

She was still shaken by the look in Zhang Guiyi's eyes.
