An uncontrollable thought surfaced in her mind.
Zhu Zhuqing recalled the past few times.
Dai Mubai had always found various excuses to leave the dormitory late at night. Sometimes he said he was going to the back mountain for extra training; other times, he claimed he was going into the city to buy cultivation supplies.
Whenever he returned, he carried a faint scent of perfume.
She had asked him about it, and he had only said it had rubbed off on him while passing by a tavern.
She believed him.
Or rather, Zhu Zhuqing had forced herself to believe him.
But now, the Group Leader's words were like a key, opening the long-sealed box of suspicion in her heart.
She could no longer sit still.
She had to confirm it.
Zhu Zhuqing abruptly stood up. Her tight black leather clothes outlined her breathtaking curves, while her long, straight, beautiful legs brimmed with explosive power.
She pushed open the door, her figure turning into a black afterimage as she silently blended into the night.
Male Dormitory.
Tang San, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were chatting in the room.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a faint force, and a slender black shadow flashed inside.
It was Zhu Zhuqing.
"Zhuqing? Why are you here so late?" Tang San asked in surprise.
Oscar also looked over curiously.
There was not a trace of expression on Zhu Zhuqing's lovely face, and her voice was as cold as water from a deep pool.
"Where is Dai Mubai?"
The three of them were stunned.
"Boss Dai?" Oscar rubbed his chin. "He seems to have... gone out."
"Where did he go?" Zhu Zhuqing pressed.
Tang San shook his head. "He didn't say. He only said he had something to take care of."
At the side, Ma Hongjun's eyes flickered.
He recalled how, that evening, Dai Mubai had mocked his Evil Fire problem again over some trivial matter, calling him a "useless eunuch."
A surge of resentment was still lodged in his chest.
Now that he saw Zhu Zhuqing looking ready to demand answers, a malicious sense of delight immediately rose in his heart.
He cleared his throat and deliberately spoke in an uncertain tone.
"Oh, I think I heard Boss Dai mention something."
"He said the pressure from cultivation had been too much lately, so he was going into the city to relax and find somewhere to have a few drinks."
Ma Hongjun blinked innocently.
"Seems like he went to... a bar?"
What?
A bar!
Those two words were like steel needles stabbing viciously into Zhu Zhuqing's ears.
The words from the Chat Group had come true once again.
Zhu Zhuqing's pupils abruptly contracted, and the aura she released made the room's temperature drop several degrees.
She said nothing, only gave Ma Hongjun a deep look.
The next second, her figure flashed. Like a true Spirit Cat, she vanished soundlessly through the doorway, leaving behind only a gust of wind.
"Hey, Zhuqing!"
Tang San tried to stop her, but it was already too late.
Watching this, Oscar said worriedly, "Fatty, did you say something wrong? Zhuqing looked like she was about to kill someone."
Ma Hongjun chuckled, the fat on his face bunching together as his eyes filled with the thrill of revenge.
"How was I wrong? Everything I said was the truth."
He secretly felt pleased with himself.
Dai Mubai, you bastard, you call me a eunuch and mock me as Fatty every day!
Today, I'll let your tigress teach you a proper lesson!
It would be best if she crippled that thing of yours too. Then neither of us can laugh at the other, and we can be eunuchs together!
Heaven Dou City, late at night.
Dai Mubai walked alone along the bustling street, excitement and anticipation written across his face.
He adjusted his luxurious robes. His wicked eyes swept over the surrounding night scenery, and a smug smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
Cultivation? Hard work?
That was all just for Zhu Zhuqing and those country bumpkins from Shrek to see.
As the dignified Star Luo Prince, how could he possibly live like an ascetic?
Balancing work and rest was the true way.
Before long, he arrived at a luxurious establishment called East Street Hotel with practiced familiarity.
This was a famous den of extravagance in Heaven Dou City, and it had once been one of his regular haunts.
The moment he entered, two provocatively dressed, curvaceous Twin Sister Flowers approached him, giggling as they threw themselves into his arms.
"Young Master Dai, you finally came! We sisters missed you so much!"
"Exactly! We thought you'd forgotten all about us!"
Dai Mubai held one woman on each side, savoring the warmth and softness in his arms. The irritation that had built up from cultivation immediately vanished without a trace.
He burst into laughter and led the two women over to sit at the bar counter.
"How could I forget my two Little Treasures?"
"Come on, fill my cup!"
"Right away!"
The twin sisters eagerly filled his wine cup. One held the cup while the other held a cherry between her red lips and fed it seductively to his mouth.
Dai Mubai enjoyed treatment fit for an emperor, drinking cup after cup.
One of the women leaned against him and asked in a breathy voice.
"Young Master Dai, didn't you say you would never come looking for us again?"
The other woman giggled along with her.
"That's right. We thought you were going to keep yourself pure for that female cat of yours."
At the words "female cat," something seemed to be touched within Dai Mubai, and a flicker of impatience flashed through his eyes.
He reached out and viciously squeezed the woman's ample chest, drawing a coquettish cry from her.
Then he drained the wine in his cup in one gulp and spoke disdainfully.
"I was only joking."
He paused, his tone full of contempt and complaint.
"That tigress keeps a cold face all day, like a block of ice. She has no charm at all."
"She won't even let me touch her. Does she really think she's some chaste woman?"
"How could she compare to my Little Treasures, who are so understanding and considerate?"
As he spoke, he kissed the other woman on the cheek.
However, he did not notice.
In the shadows of a secluded corner of the hotel lobby, a black figure stood silently.
Zhu Zhuqing saw everything clearly and heard every word distinctly.
When she heard Dai Mubai call her a "tigress" and say she had "no charm at all," her body began to tremble violently beyond her control.
Not from fear, but from extreme fury.
A scorching rage surged from the depths of her heart straight to the top of her head, making every drop of blood in her body seem ready to boil and burn.
Her chest, wrapped in tight leather clothes, heaved violently with her rapid breaths, her astonishing curves radiating a wild beauty.
Her straight, toned beautiful legs had tensed, their muscles containing terrifying power capable of tearing everything apart at any moment.
So this was what she was in his heart.
So his so-called hard work and so-called change had all been a complete and utter lie!
So after she had defied her family for him and traveled all this way to chase after him, she was nothing but a joke in his eyes!
Disgusting!
More disgusting than ever before!
The last trace of warmth vanished from Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, replaced by endless frost and killing intent.
She slowly stepped out of the shadows, every word seeming to be squeezed through clenched teeth.
"Dai! Mu! Bai!"
