"Sunset crows cry, frost fills the sky; river maples, fishing fires, face sorrowful sleep. Outside Gusu City, Hanshan Temple, midnight bells reach the traveler's boat. The scenery of Gusu, the waters of Gusu, the maidens of Gusu are truly beautiful!"
On a luxurious grand ship on Taihu Lake in Suzhou, Li Hao lay on a couch with A Zhu and A Bi attending to him.
A Zhu fed him wine, A Bi fed him grapes, along with Gusu's specialty snacks. Two exceptionally beautiful maids were also massaging his legs.
On the ship, a group of musicians played, while a dozen beautiful women in light veils danced gracefully in the center.
Their proud curves, graceful figures, and supple movements made Li Hao's heart flutter.
"Second Young Master, when we arrive at Mantuo Mountain Villa later, please don't run around! Madam Wang is extremely fierce," A Bi's face turned pale at the mention of Madam Wang.
"What happened? Did she bully you?" Li Hao asked, looking up.
As he looked up, he happened to meet A Bi's gaze as she bent down to feed him. Their lips met in a kiss.
"Second Young Master, you..." A Bi covered her mouth, her face instantly turning crimson, her eyes glistening, looking incredibly cute.
"Haha, Sister A Bi is shy. Mmm..."
"Alright, A Bi, no need to worry about A Zhu laughing at you. You're even now," Li Hao said shamelessly.
That scoundrel! Just as A Zhu was teasing A Bi, Li Hao, with lightning speed, gave her a French kiss.
The feeling, the taste... Li Hao couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Ah..." A Zhu and A Bi screamed simultaneously, scrambling onto Li Hao and playfully hitting him with their small fists.
However, Li Hao's advantage was his thick skin, and their punches were weak. He simply treated it as a massage.
Occasionally, he would touch forbidden areas, the soft jade and warm fragrance creating a leisurely atmosphere.
"Second Young Master, Young Ladies, we are nearing the Mantuo Mountain Villa pier."
After the three had frolicked for a while, a maid entered to report.
However, her trembling voice indicated that these people were quite fearful of Mantuo Mountain Villa.
"A Bi, you still haven't told me if my cheap maternal aunt bullied you," Li Hao said, embracing A Bi's waist.
After their recent playful interaction, their relationship had deepened. Now, Li Hao's intimate gestures were no longer opposed; instead, they were met with anticipation.
"Brother Qiao Feng, my brother is sorry. It's all because Miss A Zhu is too charming, and the System is too shameless..." Li Hao shamelessly shifted the blame to A Zhu and the System, taking no responsibility himself.
"No, it's just that we secretly went to the island before to deliver news to Miss Biao about Young Master Fu. Madam Wang saw us a few times, so we were punished a little," A Bi said, blushing.
"What kind of punishment? When we get there, Young Master will get revenge for you. Wherever she hit you, Young Master will hit back twice as hard," Li Hao asked curiously.
"Really?" A Bi asked happily.
"Really." For beauties, Li Hao would do anything.
The word "do" is key, circle it for the exam.
"Last time, when A Zhu delivered a letter, Madam caught her and gave her thirty lashes. After returning to Tingxiang Water Pavilion, she couldn't even sit down and had to sleep on her stomach," A Bi said, covering her mouth and giggling.
"Spanked, swollen, and had to sleep on her stomach..." Li Hao was speechless. A Bi was digging a hole for him!
"Second Young Master, A Bi is just joking. Although Madam Wang's attitude towards us is not good, that's just her personality. Everyone on the island knows us. When they punished us, they used heavy hands but were gentle, so we weren't injured," A Zhu quickly explained.
This Second Young Master is really something, always staring at people's butts, it's so embarrassing!
"Who goes there? Stop the ship. This is a private forbidden area. Trespassers will be killed without mercy." Just as the grand ship was about to approach the pier, a group of women in tight-fitting clothes, armed with weapons, rushed over.
The one who shouted was an old wet nurse in her fifties, stout, short, and dark-skinned, looking incredibly fierce.
"Old Nanny Hei, it's A Bi! I'm here on the orders of our Old Steward to bring the Murong Family's Second Young Master to Mantuo Mountain Villa to pay respects to Madam Wang," A Bi shouted loudly.
Mantuo Mountain Villa had a rule that no one was allowed to trespass. Of course, this was a common rule among various sects and factions in the Martial World, so Li Hao was not surprised.
"That dark-skinned one is Old Nanny Hei. Don't be fooled by her fierce appearance; she's actually quite good to us. She's in charge of punishments at Mantuo Mountain Villa. Every time Madam punishes us, she's the one who carries it out, and we've never been injured," A Zhu whispered.
"She's so good to you," Li Hao whispered into A Zhu's ear.
"It's said that Old Nanny Hei liked our Old Steward when she was young, so she dotes on him by extension and never makes things difficult for people from Canhe Manor. But she's very fierce to outsiders," A Zhu said, blushing, feeling flustered by Li Hao's intimate behavior.
"I see. It seems the Old Steward isn't much to look at either!" Li Hao pouted. To like someone like that, the Old Steward must have been desperate.
"Don't talk nonsense. The Old Steward was very handsome when he was young; he captivated many young women in Gusu. Even now, in his old age, he's refined and amiable, and many maids in the manor have feelings for the Old Steward!" A Zhu quickly explained.
"Oh, is that so! The Old Steward has truly dedicated himself to the Murong Family, even using a honey trap on someone like Old Nanny Hei."
Li Hao felt a genuine admiration for the Old Steward he had never met. That old man had a good appetite, enjoying both meat and vegetables.
"Stop talking nonsense. Old Nanny Hei was also very beautiful back then, but because she was poisoned, the toxins settled in her body, and over time, she became like this." A Zhu shot Li Hao a look, finding his words infuriating.
"Little girl, how dare you glare at me." Li Hao, walking behind, saw A Zhu's disdainful look and casually slapped her backside.
Damn, this touch! As expected of someone famous!
Soft and tender yet firm, leaving a lingering sensation. Li Hao finally made up his mind. Forget Qiao Feng, even if his own father came, he wouldn't give A Zhu up.
"Bad guy," A Zhu suddenly cried out, her legs going weak, and she fell into Li Hao's arms.
"Be careful, don't fall. I'll help you," Li Hao said shamelessly.
"Thank you, Second Young Master, A Zhu doesn't need help." With that, she broke free from Li Hao's embrace and hopped ashore.
"Young Master, A Bi is seasick and her limbs are weak. She can't walk. What should we do?" A Bi's voice was soft and sweet, sending shivers down one's spine like eating ice cream in December.
"Come, Young Master will carry you down..."
