"You little brat, shut up! Say another word, and I'll tear your mouth apart!" Shui Bing'er's face was red as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
"Since everyone's full, let's disperse. Go take care of your own business." Ye Xiaofeng did not want to stay here a moment longer. He could not withstand Xue Wu's relentless bombardment.
After everyone left, Xue Wu remained seated. Seeing that Xue Wu was not leaving, Shui Yue'er asked curiously.
"By the way, Sister Xue Wu, aren't you going back?"
"Aren't I waiting to settle the bill? How about you pay it, and I'll head back first?" Xue Wu said with a straight face.
"I suddenly remembered that I still haven't washed my clothes." Unwilling to pay the bill, Shui Yue'er hurriedly found an excuse that even she did not believe and slipped away.
After everyone had gone back, Xue Wu suddenly gave an evil smile.
"Waiter, bring these two dishes and two more pots of good wine to that young master's room from earlier. Then go call my eldest sister, Shui Bing'er, and tell her that Young Master Ye wants to see her," Xue Wu said with a lewd grin. She had long since tampered with the wine.
"Miss, this..." The waiter looked somewhat troubled.
"This Gold Soul Coin is for the meal. If you can complete the task, you can do whatever you want with the other one." Xue Wu generously took out two Gold Soul Coins from her pocket.
"Rest assured, I'll complete the task you assigned." Seeing that he could get a Gold Soul Coin himself, the waiter immediately changed his tune.
There was no helping it. Money could make the devil turn millstones. The waiter only earned one Gold Soul Coin a month. Now he could earn a month's wages with such a small task, so why not?
After night fell, the waiter carried the dishes Xue Wu had instructed him to bring during the day and arrived outside Ye Xiaofeng's room. He knocked on the door.
After Ye Xiaofeng opened it, he said, "Young Master Ye, Miss Bing'er asked me to bring these to you. There were too many people during the day, so she found it difficult to say anything." The waiter improvised on the spot.
"Fine, put them on my table." Ye Xiaofeng saw the Signature Dish from the restaurant. He did not believe Shui Bing'er had sent it, but since the waiter had delivered it, he had no choice but to believe it.
"If Young Master Ye has no further instructions, I'll take my leave." Seeing that Ye Xiaofeng said nothing, the waiter withdrew.
Did she really send someone to bring this? Ye Xiaofeng began imagining things.
After leaving Ye Xiaofeng's room, the waiter went to Shui Bing'er's door and knocked.
When Shui Bing'er opened the door, he said, "Miss Bing'er, Young Master Ye said he wants to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. Would you be willing to go over?" The waiter wore an honest expression.
Seeing that Shui Bing'er did not react, the waiter began to retreat in order to advance. "Of course, Young Master Ye also said that if Miss Bing'er finds it inconvenient, then just pretend he never said anything tonight."
"It's not inconvenient. You can go down first. I'll head over shortly." Thinking of what Ye Xiaofeng had said earlier that day, Shui Bing'er still went despite the late hour.
As the waiter left, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. The task was complete, and a Gold Soul Coin was his.
As for what happened between Ye Xiaofeng and Shui Bing'er, that had nothing to do with him. Xue Wu had instructed him to do it all.
"I'm exhausted. I'm going to sleep first," Xue Wu said to Shui Yue'er, casually extinguishing the lamp.
"Sister Xue Wu, aren't you usually the last one to go to sleep?" Shui Yue'er was utterly baffled.
"I said I'm tired. You should rest early too." With that, she pulled Shui Yue'er to bed.
Meanwhile, Shui Bing'er came to Ye Xiaofeng's door and knocked softly. Ye Xiaofeng opened it.
"Bing'er, why did you come over?" Ye Xiaofeng asked.
"Nothing. I just came to see you." Shui Bing'er was speechless. Didn't you call me here?
After entering the room, Shui Bing'er saw the food on Ye Xiaofeng's table and blushed slightly. This guy had acted so honest during the day. Could Xue Wu really have been right? Did Ye Xiaofeng need to nourish his body?
"You look rather thin too. You should nourish yourself," Shui Bing'er said tactfully.
"Thank you for your concern," Ye Xiaofeng replied somewhat awkwardly. And so, they chatted back and forth.
Late at night, after Shui Yue'er had fallen asleep, Xue Wu suddenly opened her eyes, quietly put on her clothes, and slipped out of the room.
"Xiaofeng, don't blame Xue Wu and the others. They're usually just a little mischievous, but they're kind-hearted," Shui Bing'er said gently.
"How could I? I consider them all good friends," Ye Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"They brought it over. Why aren't you eating it?" Shui Bing'er asked, blushing.
"Ah, I forgot about that." Ye Xiaofeng had not wanted to eat it, but Bing'er had sent it. Now that she had brought it up herself, how could he refuse?
As he spoke, Ye Xiaofeng ate the lamb kidneys. He also took out two cups, poured the wine, and began drinking with Shui Bing'er.
Although it was the first time either of them had drunk wine, the atmosphere was so awkward that they both downed their drinks in one gulp to ease it.
"The show is about to begin." Xue Wu watched the entire scene clearly from outside the window.
"Xiaofeng, do you feel like your head is a little dizzy?" After two cups, Shui Bing'er became muddleheaded.
"I don't know what's going on. Me too." Ye Xiaofeng looked at Shui Bing'er across from him, and the longer he looked, the more lovely she seemed.
Drunk, Ye Xiaofeng spoke from the heart and could not help saying, "Bing'er, you're so beautiful tonight!"
"You really have honey on your lips tonight," Shui Bing'er said, already tipsy from the alcohol.
"With such a great beauty beside me, how could I not put some honey on my lips?" Ye Xiaofeng grew more and more animated.
"Tell me honestly, how long have you been plotting this?" Shui Bing'er asked, blushing as she wrapped an arm around Ye Xiaofeng's shoulder.
"Since the moment you rescued me." Ye Xiaofeng's hands also began to misbehave.
Xue Wu became increasingly absorbed as she watched through the window. But in the end, the two could not hold their liquor and collapsed onto the table. Disappointed, Xue Wu pushed the door open and entered. "This guy really got off easy."
As she spoke, she moved Shui Bing'er and Ye Xiaofeng onto the bed. Before leaving, she did not forget to remove their outer clothes.
Xue Wu looked at her handiwork, gave an evil smile, then pushed open the door and returned to her own room.
The next morning, Ye Xiaofeng groggily turned over. It felt as though there was something beside him, so he squeezed it. "Mm..." He heard Bing'er's voice.
Ye Xiaofeng sensed that something was wrong and instantly opened his eyes. He froze completely. Just then, Shui Bing'er woke up as well.
She looked at Ye Xiaofeng, then at his hand resting on her chest. For a moment, she did not react.
"Ah!" They both screamed at once, their minds going blank.
"Why haven't you taken your filthy hand off me?!" Shui Bing'er exploded instantly. Before Ye Xiaofeng could pull his hand back, she kicked him off the bed.
Ye Xiaofeng's head struck the chair beside the bed, but this was not the time to worry about his pain.
"Bing'er, I... I didn't do it on purpose." Ye Xiaofeng had no idea what had happened. He remembered nothing after getting drunk.
Without another word, Shui Bing'er slapped him. She wanted nothing more than to kill the person before her. Her innocence had been ruined just like that.
"Bing'er, I'll take responsibility." Seeing tears slowly slide down Shui Bing'er's cheeks, Ye Xiaofeng felt like a sinner.
"If you tell anyone about this, I'll kill you first, then I'll kill myself." Seeing the blood streaming from Ye Xiaofeng's forehead after she kicked him down, her heart suddenly softened.
"Bing'er, no matter how wrong it was, it was all my fault. Don't be angry." Ye Xiaofeng pulled her over and hugged Shui Bing'er.
"Get lost! Let me go! If you don't let go, I'll kill you!" Shui Bing'er was startled by Ye Xiaofeng's sudden embrace. Sleeping together had not been her intention, and now this bastard Ye Xiaofeng was taking advantage of her.
"Even if you kill me, I won't let go." Ye Xiaofeng held her tighter and kissed Shui Bing'er, whose eyes were red with tears.
"Get lost! I'll kill you! Mmm..." Shui Bing'er struggled, pounding Ye Xiaofeng's chest with her fists. Gradually, she stopped struggling and slowly embraced Ye Xiaofeng, letting him do as he wished.
After an unknown amount of time, a knock on the door interrupted their passion. "Young Master Ye, Miss Xue Wu asked you to come downstairs for breakfast," the waiter called from outside.
They instantly came to their senses. By then, Ye Xiaofeng's hand had already slipped into Shui Bing'er's clothes, while Shui Bing'er was holding him tightly.
"Alright, I'll be down right away." Ye Xiaofeng hurriedly sent the waiter outside away.
"Get lost. Why haven't you taken your hand out?" Shui Bing'er said angrily, her voice soft.
"Hehe, I couldn't help myself. I lost control." Ye Xiaofeng withdrew his hand and released Shui Bing'er from his embrace.
"Get dressed and go downstairs." Shui Bing'er said angrily. If Ye Xiaofeng did not go down soon and the others noticed something strange, where would she put her face?
After Ye Xiaofeng left, Shui Bing'er checked her body. She was still intact, and the weight in her heart finally lifted. In other words, nothing else had happened last night.
After waking up, Shui Bing'er had imagined countless possibilities. She had feared that something inappropriate had happened between her and Ye Xiaofeng. After all, they were still young.
Shui Bing'er hurriedly straightened her clothes and touched up her makeup to avoid arousing anyone's suspicions, especially Xue Wu's. If Xue Wu got hold of something against her, she would never let it go easily.
Everyone downstairs was eating when Ye Xiaofeng walked over to the table. Shui Yue'er noticed the injury on his forehead.
"Xiaofeng, how did you get hurt?" Shui Yue'er asked with concern.
"I accidentally fell and got hurt," Ye Xiaofeng said awkwardly. You really had to bring up the one thing nobody should mention.
"Maybe our Young Master Ye went out in the middle of the night to do something shameful and got beaten up," Xue Wu said absentmindedly while sipping water from her cup, though she was delighted inside.
"Xiaofeng, you couldn't really have..." Xue Wu's words made everyone turn toward Ye Xiaofeng. Shui Yue'er was starting to wonder whether Xue Wu might be telling the truth.
"How is that possible? What kind of person do you take me, Ye Xiaofeng, for? How could I do something so immoral?" Ye Xiaofeng stared at Xue Wu. If looks could kill, Xue Wu would have been torn to pieces already. Damn it, you actually guessed right.
"What are you all talking about?" Shui Bing'er came over after tidying herself up.
"Nothing. We were just chatting," Xue Wu said expressionlessly.
"Sis, where did you go? We didn't see you all night," Shui Yue'er asked worriedly. She had not seen Shui Bing'er when she went to sleep, nor had she seen her when she woke that morning.
"Ah, I couldn't sleep last night, so I went out to clear my head." Shui Yue'er's question immediately made Shui Bing'er nervous, and her words came out incoherently.
"Sis, if there's anything on your mind, you can tell us. We can help share your burdens," Shui Yue'er said with concern.
"That's right, Eldest Sister. If there's anything upsetting you, tell us, and we'll help share your burdens. Even if we can't help, there's still Xiaofeng. Isn't that right, Young Master Ye?" Xue Wu gave Ye Xiaofeng and Shui Bing'er a meaningful look.
"Ah, right, right." Ye Xiaofeng hurriedly agreed. Shui Bing'er's face was as red as a ripe apple.
"You all haven't eaten yet, have you? Hurry up and eat." Not knowing what to say, Shui Bing'er hurriedly changed the subject.
