Chapter - 41

"What did your son do last night? Say it again." He said each word slowly, his thumb gently stroking the scabbard. His movements looked extremely gentle, but they contained a chilling murderous intent.

The Pei Clan members' tongues seemed to have been cut off. They opened and closed their mouths, but no sound came out.

Yu Pinyan turned to look at Fang Zhichen. His gaze wandered over the bulging veins on his neck. His gaze was like an invisible blade, slowly and cruelly cutting through his flesh. It was as if his head would fall to the ground and his blood would splatter everywhere if he dared to answer 'yes'.

Fang Zhichen instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He covered his neck and stammered, "I, I went to the First Miss's room last night, not the Second Miss's room. My mother said that was nonsense. It was the First Miss who begged me again and again that I reluctantly went. Commandant Yu, please spare my life for the sake of my grandmother! "

His legs trembled, and he could not stand straight. He almost knelt down.

Yu Pinyan glanced at Mama Ma. Mama Ma nodded slightly, indicating that he was telling the truth.

Yu Siyu had been stupid for a long time. She never knew who she should befriend and who she should not befriend. Even now, she was confused about who she should marry and who she should not marry. Yu Pinyan did not have the leisure to care about her. He sheathed his sword, turned around and strode away. As for the malicious slander from the Pei Clan, he would make it up to Old Master Fang.

The thick murderous intent that filled the air slowly dissipated with his footsteps. The Pei Clan mother and son breathed heavily, looking as if they had just survived a disaster.

"Madam Fang, Young Master Fang, please. The carriage has been waiting outside for a long time. "Mama Ma pushed the two of them and said sarcastically," Oh, you still don't want to leave? Shall I call Master Hou to send you off? "

The Pei Clan mother and son turned pale with fright. They hurriedly supported each other and walked towards the jiaomen.

Mama Ma said to the two of them, "Don't spread any rumors to harm the reputation of our Prefecture Yu. You should know what our Master Hou does. The Dragonscale Guard's eyes and ears are everywhere. If you say anything unpleasant, be careful of your tongues being cut off. "

The Pei Clan mother and son walked faster, as if there were evil spirits chasing after them.

Mama Ma spat and then went back to report.

-----

As a large number of blisters had risen on her back, she felt an unbearable itch when she rubbed against the cloth. Therefore, she ordered her men to set the floor heater on fire, and when the temperature in the room rose, she took off her outer shirt, wearing only a pink dudou and a pair of loose, smoky green bloomers, which nearly reached her waist. Lazily, she lay on her stomach on the soft couch, counting a box of small golden pigs.

She didn't wear her hair in a bun. Her long, shiny black hair was like the most gorgeous satin, covering the entire bed. There were even a few strands that wrapped around her slender arms, making her black hair appear even darker and her snow-white skin appear even whiter. The strong color difference made people dizzy.

Liu Lu held a box of ointment in his hands. He secretly swallowed his saliva as he gently applied it to the affected area. He tried to resist, but in the end, he could not resist. He reached out and slid his hands down his master's waist to pull up the bloomers that were slightly revealing half of his master's cleavage.

But at this moment, the curtains were lifted and Master Hou's tall figure blocked all the sunlight. The light in the room immediately dimmed.

Liu Lu was startled. He hurriedly picked up the mermaid gauze robe that was carelessly thrown on the soft couch and covered his master's back. He immediately bowed and said hesitantly, "Master Hou, it's time to change Miss's dressing." So, shouldn't you leave us for a while?

The thin layer of mermaid gauze did not cover anything. Instead, it made her white and tender body look faintly discernible. It was very seductive. Yu Pinyan's eyes darkened. He took the ointment from Liu Lu's hands and ordered, "You, leave."

"Eh?" Liu Lu was dumbfounded. Why was he the one who should leave?

"Go out. Big Brother will help me apply the ointment." Yu Xiang waved his hand heartlessly.

Liu Lu walked out in a daze. He stood in the corridor for a long time before coming back to his senses. He saw Tao Hong bouncing over with Ah Lu on his shoulder. He angrily scolded in a low voice, "You damn girl, taking Ah Lu out to play again. How many times have I told you to tie Ah Lu to Miss's door so that Master Hou can hear the noise when he comes? You just won't listen! "

"If Master Hou wants to come, then let him come. Why would he want to hear the noise?" Tao Hong's face was full of confusion. Ah Lu also chirped, "Master Hou is here."

Liu Lu looked at this silly person and silly bird. He waved his hand weakly. "Forget it. It's hard to explain it to you."

In the room, Yu Pinyan sat on the edge of the bed. He lifted his robe and asked, "Are you feeling better today? Is it still itchy? "

"It's much better than yesterday." Yu Xiang was playing with a small golden pig in her hand.

Yu Pinyan nodded. He dipped a little ointment and applied it evenly to the still somewhat red and swollen area. After applying the ointment, his fingertips were still reluctant to leave. They slid towards the slightly sunken tailbone. Seeing the small waist and perfectly round and perky buttocks, his eyes became darker and darker.

However, he heard Yu Xiang chuckle. She glanced at him with her watery cat eyes. "Big Brother, it's so itchy!"

It was only then that Yu Pinyan came back to his senses. He realized that his fingertips had already left the wound. They stopped at her sunken waist and circled gently. The falling bloomers could not cover the faintly discernible cleavage. It made his eyes burn with passion. He withdrew his hand as if he had been scalded. He couldn't get rid of the slippery feeling that remained on his fingertips.

He didn't dare to think or look. He put down the ointment, found an opaque brocade robe from the box, and covered his sister's body. After doing all this, he felt as if he had fought the most difficult battle. His forehead was covered with sweat, and his breathing was much heavier.

Yu Xiang was a heartless person. When she was with her brother, she never thought about the difference between men and women. She pointed at the sweat on his forehead and laughed. "The house is burning, and the sun is shining outside. Big Brother, take off your coat. Look at how hot you are."

Yu Pinyan's body wasn't hot, but his heart was. He could only smile bitterly when he heard this. However, he obeyed and took off his outer robe and court boots. He found a historical record and sat cross-legged on the couch. He sat beside his sister and slowly read. A calm heart naturally cooled down. Reading for a while might make him feel better. If he was asked to leave, he would rather stay and suffer in pain and happiness.

Yu Xiang had long been accustomed to her brother reading by her side. She continued to count her little golden pigs. She looked at her brother when she counted one, then looked at him again when she counted one. She seemed to want to say something, but then hesitated.

Yu Pinyan felt as if a goose feather had brushed past his heart when he was stared at by that pair of bright and spirited cat eyes. He endured for a moment before he calmly said, "If you have something to say, say it. Why do you keep looking at me?" He turned his head and saw his sister propped up her upper body. The collar of her bodice drooped down, revealing a seductive cleavage. With just a glance, he could imagine how soft it would feel.

He immediately retracted his gaze and stared at the words on the page. His brain couldn't recognize them anymore. He secretly took a deep breath.

Yu Xiang didn't notice. She stammered, "Big Brother, I want to buy a house in the countryside."

"If you want to buy it, buy it in the capital. What good houses are there in the countryside? They're all fields or brick houses." Yu Pinyan turned a page. His voice was a bit hoarse.

"It's better to buy it in the countryside. If sister-in-law dislikes me in the future, I can stay away. Yu Siyu said I'm a good-for-nothing. If you protect me now, who knows how you'll think I'm a hindrance when you have a wife and children in the future. "Yu Xiang became more and more upset as she spoke. She even began to cry. She hurriedly raised her hand to wipe it away.

Yu Pinyan didn't look at her. He stared at the page and said coldly, "Don't listen to her nonsense." It seemed that he should marry Yu Siyu off as soon as possible.

Yu Xiang bit her lip. Her expression was still very uneasy.

Yu Pinyan was helpless. He quickly glanced at her and comforted her, "Okay, buy a house in the countryside. If she dislikes you, then let her move out. "

Yu Xiang nodded. Only then did she pick up the little golden pigs that were strewn all over the place and put them into a box. She couldn't feel happy when she thought about how her brother would marry another woman and how she would no longer have any room to interfere in his life.

After hesitating for a while, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She said hesitantly, "Brother, don't get married, okay? I don't like sister-in-law. I don't like anyone who becomes my sister-in-law! It'll be great if you're my only sister-in-law. "

Yu Pinyan's heart trembled violently. An indescribable joy flowed out from his cold and hard heart that had long since cracked. The corners of his lips lifted slightly, but his eyes were fixed on the book. He pretended to be indifferent as he replied, "Okay, Brother won't get married. Brother will only live by Xiang'er."

Even though she knew that it was impossible for him not to get married, Yu Xiang was already very satisfied to hear this sentence. She covered her mouth. She was overjoyed like a mouse that had stolen oil.

Yu Pinyan quickly glanced at her. The smile on his lips deepened.

Once Yu Xiang's worries were gone, she had the desire to talk. She recounted everything that had happened last night. She spoke very slowly, and her expressions were lively. She even gestured as she spoke, and it was very interesting to listen to. One of Yu Pinyan's favorite things was to return home every day and listen to his little sister narrate the day's events to him.

Even though it was all trivial, it made him chuckle repeatedly. He was in a very good mood. When he entered the Dragonscale Guard, he was a heartless and ruthless killing machine. When he returned home and listened to his little sister's nagging, he felt that he was a living person with flesh and blood.

He simply threw the book aside and lay on his side beside his little sister. He pretended to casually wrap her in a brocade robe. Then, he wrapped his arm around her neck and half pulled her into his embrace. His large palm tightly clasped her small hand. Their ten fingers intertwined as he listened to her vivid description. There was no trace of coldness or cruelty between his brows. Only gentleness was left.

When he heard Fang Zhichen's confession, a trace of hostility flowed out of his eyes. He coldly said, "He really dared to dream!"

Yu Xiang snuggled into his embrace and said aggrievedly, "Of course he dared to dream. He just saw that I was a cripple and didn't take me seriously. It's not just him. Who doesn't want Brother's power when they marry me in the future? When they propose marriage, they make it sound so good. After I marry into their family, they won't treat me as a human. They might even order their concubines and maidservants to climb over my head and abuse me. Brother, there's no one else in this world who treats me as well as you do. So, can I not marry? I'll just stay by your side for the rest of my life. "

The hostility in Yu Pinyan's eyes disappeared. He hugged her and laughed softly. His chest vibrated with a strong sense of joy.

Did that mean he agreed? Yu Xiang also laughed. She used the tip of her nose to touch his and deeply breathed in the sandalwood scent that made her feel at ease.

Through the crack in the window, Liu Lu saw the brother and sister entangled together. The strange feeling in her heart grew stronger. Just as she was hesitating whether she should find an excuse to go in, she saw Master Hou's personal bodyguard hurriedly run over.

"Is there something you need from Master Hou?" She hurriedly went forward.

"I'll have to trouble Miss Liu Lu to go in and report that the person Master Hou wanted to investigate has been found. Two Dragonscale Guards are currently waiting in the study." The bodyguard cupped his hands.

Yu Pinyan had already heard their conversation. He gently placed his little sister on the couch and covered her with a thin blanket. Only then did he put on his outer robe and court boots and leave.
