Chapter 66: Fernina regrets a lot

After hearing this, Arlecino smiled and replied, "It's okay, I just did some exercises in the room." Her words were relaxed, trying to cover up the emotional fluctuations just now.

As she spoke, she leaned close to Lin Anyi's ear and said in a low and playful voice, "Right?"

Her breath was warm, making Lin Anyi's ears itch. Lin Anyi was in a complicated mood at the moment. Facing Arlecino's teasing and the fact that he was about to meet Fernina, he felt extremely entangled.

In Arlecino's eyes, he saw an unspoken expectation and challenge, which made him dare not make any sound and could only nod gently.

"I see. Then, when Father is doing exercises, he should also pay attention to rest and not be too tired,"

Linnet said respectfully. "Then I will go and inform Fernina and let her wait in the hall."

"Well, go," Arlecino replied.

As Linnet gradually walked away, a glimmer of joy flashed in Arlecino's eyes. She approached Lin Anyi and said in an irresistible teasing tone, "Do you want Fernina to see this scene now?"

Lin Anyi panicked when he heard this and shook his head violently, a trace of panic in his eyes.

Arlecino looked at him and smiled even more brightly. She gently patted his cheek, her tone relaxed and commanding. "Then you must listen to me carefully in the future. Understand?"

Although Lin Anyi was dissatisfied in his heart, he could only complain in a low voice due to the situation: "Damn it, why do you always threaten me with Fernina? Can't you change the way?" His voice was small but revealed helplessness and bitterness.

When Arlecino heard these words, a hint of playful danger appeared in her smile. "Huh? What did you say just now?" She pretended not to know, the threat in her eyes becoming more obvious.

Lin Anyi felt a chill and waved his hand quickly, saying, "No, nothing." He urged anxiously, "Arlecino, go see Fernina quickly. Don't let her wait too long."

Arlecino narrowed her eyes, her voice full of unquestionable seriousness and command. "Remember to call me servant sister, no matter who you are in front of, including Fernina!"

Lin Anyi nodded expressionlessly, his lips tightly pursed, but his heart was surging: "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west—don't bully the young and poor! You're just being domineering here. When I get the reward and return to reality, I will definitely discipline you to call Fernina sister!"

Lin Anyi, ready to vent his anger for his girlfriend Fernina, reached out and picked up the water cup on the bedside table, wanting to moisten his throat and ease the tense atmosphere.

However, Arlecino quickly snatched the water cup from his hand.

"What are you doing?" Lin Anyi asked subconsciously.

Arlecino smiled, touched Lin Anyi's face, and answered gently, "Since you have called me servant sister, then it is my responsibility to take care of you."

Her voice was soft and a little playful. "For such a small matter as drinking water, let the servant sister help you."

Lin Anyi: "???"

Lin Anyi was bewildered. Before he could understand what Arlecino's actions meant, she drank the water in the cup and then gently placed the cup back on the bedside.

Then, she lightly moved toward Lin Anyi and suddenly pressed his body, giving him no chance to react.

Just as Lin Anyi had not recovered from his surprise, Arlecino quickly approached and pressed her red lips against his. Lin Anyi felt a warm current flowing into his mouth through Arlecino's lips. It was the water she had just drunk, carrying the warmth of her body temperature.

His eyes widened, his face full of shock and disbelief. He passively accepted this intimate exchange, and even after their lips slowly parted, he was still immersed in the surprise of this sudden intimacy.

Instinctively, he wanted to push Arlecino away, a desire to protest surging in his heart. Just as he was about to reprimand her, Arlecino's voice interrupted, low and warning:

"My room is not far from the hall. If the noise is too loud, it might be heard by Fernina. Do you want to be discovered by her?"

These words were like a basin of cold water poured over Lin Anyi's head. He immediately froze, his struggling movements coming to an abrupt halt.

Clearly, before he had the strength to establish an unshakable position as the first husband for Fernina, these bad women could always use her to threaten him.

Arlecino picked up the water cup again, as if about to repeat her previous behavior. Lin Anyi, anxious, quickly stopped her.

Arlecino's mouth curled into a sly smile. Her eyes flashed with joy as she gently replied, "It seems that you are very worried about her."

She paused and added in a relaxed and confident tone, "Don't worry, it's just drinking water. She won't notice anything wrong."

Lin Anyi felt powerless. Arlecino's relaxed attitude and control over the situation left him silent once again.

Seeing this, Arlecino gently put down the water cup. She walked closer to Lin Anyi and said softly, "You're so nervous—it makes me want to tease you even more."

Her fingers touched Lin Anyi's chin, forcing him to look up at her. Her eyes were deep, as if she could see through Lin Anyi's mind.

She continued in a soft tone, "But I'm not an unreasonable person. Since you care so much, I'll go see Fernina first. You, prepare yourself well, and don't let her see any clues when we meet later."

After saying that, Arlecino turned lightly and walked toward the door with elegant steps. Her back exuded an inexplicable charm, leaving Lin Anyi, despite the thousands of complicated emotions in his heart, to watch her leave quietly.

Meanwhile, in the Hall

Fernina sat on the spacious sofa, tapping her fingers on the coffee table with an impatient look on her face. She glanced around, muttering to herself:

"It's really strange. What is Alechino busy with? Why hasn't she come out to see me for so long? And my Anyi didn't show up either. Is he busy with other things as a housekeeper?"

Her thoughts wandered to her earlier decision, and a wave of regret washed over her.

"That bad woman Alechino... Damn it, why did I agree to this in a rush?"

Fernina clenched her fists. She knew Alechino had always been at the top of her danger list. That woman had repeatedly shown ill intentions toward her husband.

Sending Lin Anyi to Alechino as a housekeeper felt, in hindsight, like a terrible mistake. Fernina's heart sank as she realized:

"This is simply sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth... This is completely waiting to be eaten up."
