Bai Zhou's sudden slap instantly silenced the entire living room.
The young maid who had brought Shen Qin out, as well as Lin Wei, who was hiding behind Bai Zhou, both trembled, panic appearing in their eyes.
Shen Yun and Chen Juan, who were sitting there, were both stunned.
However, neither of them said anything. They merely exchanged a glance and quietly watched the scene unfold.
As for Shen Qin, that slap had completely dazed her.
She covered her flawless, fair cheek as tears slowly welled up in her eyes.
Her gaze toward Bai Zhou was filled with confusion.
But Bai Zhou paid no attention to Shen Qin, who had fallen to the floor.
He turned around, casually took the somewhat evasive Lin Wei's hand, and headed toward the small side room beside the main living room.
After taking two steps, he did not forget to say coldly:
"What are you standing there for? Get over here!"

Shen Qin naturally knew Bai Zhou was speaking to her.
Hearing Bai Zhou's cold tone, Shen Qin hurriedly scrambled up from the floor.
Ignoring the palm print on her face, she anxiously chased after him.
The young maid standing there was also frightened and immediately turned to run away.
But unexpectedly, Bai Zhou called out to her again.
"Hey, you. Go bring me one of the gifts my dad bought for his little darling a couple days ago."
"Ah..." The young maid's eyes were full of confusion upon hearing Bai Zhou's order.
But she did not dare defy him at all.
She immediately lowered her head. "Yes, Young Master."
Then she lifted her skirt and hurried away.
Bai Zhou led Lin Wei into the small room.
He dropped onto the sofa inside.
Lin Wei subconsciously intended to stand behind Bai Zhou.
But unexpectedly, Bai Zhou reached out and pulled her directly into his arms.
He made Lin Wei sit on his lap.
Although this was already the second time Lin Wei had sat in Bai Zhou's arms,
her heartbeat immediately began pounding violently again, and a blush instantly spread across her face.
Yet as she looked at Bai Zhou, there was more confusion than shyness in her eyes.
Shen Qin, who had followed them in, saw Bai Zhou and Lin Wei being so intimate.
The pain from that earlier slap suddenly seemed even clearer.

But Shen Qin did not dare say a word. She could only lower her head obediently and stand before Bai Zhou.
Because she had no idea what this temperamental Young Master Bai intended to do.
But how could Bai Zhou possibly let her off so easily?
With one arm around Lin Wei's slender waist and his fingers lightly rubbing her evasive little hand, he said casually:
"You're standing in front of me. Do you expect me to crane my neck up to speak to you?"
"Ah!"
Shen Qin was instantly startled by Bai Zhou's voice.
With a thud, she dropped stiffly to her knees.
Then, trembling, she said:
"I... I'm sorry, Young Master Bai. I... I was wrong."

Watching Shen Qin panic, the corners of Bai Zhou's lips curled up, but he still deliberately said in a cold voice:
"What did you call me?"
Shen Qin froze and instinctively began, "Young Master Bai..."
But then she saw Bai Zhou's icy eyes.

"M-Master..."
That was right!
This had been Bai Zhou's goal all along!
After Shen Qin finished bathing, had she actually started thinking of herself as a person again?
She even dared to come before him and spin around without his permission?
Who gave her that confidence? Her body wash?
Only after hearing Shen Qin call him Master did Bai Zhou reveal a smile.
He said lightly:
"That's more like it. Come closer."

Shen Qin's body trembled slightly. Still sprawled on the floor, she crawled over to Bai Zhou.
"Raise your head!"
Shen Qin shuddered again but slowly lifted her head.
Shen Qin's beautiful, captivating face was tilted upward as she looked pitifully at Bai Zhou.
But naturally, when she raised her head, she also saw Lin Wei sitting on Bai Zhou's lap!

This was Lin Wei, the poorest, most timid, and not even particularly pretty girl in the entire school.
Normally, she would go unnoticed in a crowd.
And just earlier, she had been that useless Divine Weapon Maiden Shen Qin had spoken of!
Yet now, she sat high on the lap of the Young Master Bai Shen Qin feared, looking down at her like a victor!
Back then, Shen Qin had been the only one who got to look down on Lin Wei!

Shen Qin's gaze at Lin Wei naturally did not escape Bai Zhou and Lin Wei's notice.
It was a venomous look, as though Lin Wei had stolen everything from her.
It made the already timid Lin Wei instinctively turn pale, bite her lip, and avert her gaze.
But in the next second.
With a slap, Bai Zhou struck Shen Qin's other cheek with the back of his hand.

"What... do you have a problem with my Divine Weapon Maiden?"
"N-No!" Covering her other cheek, tears forced from her eyes, Shen Qin hurriedly straightened herself on her knees and said in panic:
"I don't, M-Master... I wouldn't dare. Lin Wei is your Divine Weapon Maiden now. She is my... my..."
Ding! Detected the Protagonist's White Moonlight suffering mental damage +999. Obtained Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 5400 more to activate!
Shen Qin gritted her teeth as though she were too ashamed to say what she wanted to say.
But Bai Zhou gave a soft laugh and turned to Lin Wei.
"Our dog won't speak. How about you teach her a lesson for me?"
"Me?" Lin Wei was startled again. "I... I..."
But this time, before Lin Wei could refuse, Bai Zhou said, "Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
Lin Wei's voice caught in her throat. The image of stomping the Squadron Leader unconscious on the road earlier instantly surfaced in her mind.
Her body trembled slightly, and then...
The crisp slap was much lighter than Bai Zhou's.
But Lin Wei's palm still landed firmly on Shen Qin's face.

The system notifications constantly ringing in his mind made Bai Zhou beam.
Although Lin Wei's slap had been much lighter than his, the psychological damage it dealt Shen Qin had increased exponentially!
"M-Mistress, I'm sorry..."
Under immense psychological pressure, Shen Qin finally uttered those two words.
Lin Wei, who was still somewhat nervous, felt an inexplicable thrill rise in her heart when she heard Shen Qin's form of address.
So bullying people really felt this good?

This system notification made Bai Zhou's smile even more apparent.
That was right. This might seem like training Shen Qin, but was it not also a form of development for Lin Wei?
Just then, the young maid's soft, timid voice came from outside:
"Y-Young Master, the thing you asked for."
Shen Qin, whose eyes were already brimming with tears, had just raised her head when her pupils suddenly contracted.
