Those wolf cub-like eyes wanted to be pampered and have their fur smoothed, but because things didn’t go as he anticipated, he angrily exposed his immature fangs, looking threatening…… but actually still acting coquettishly.

Si Qingyu was stunned by his glare, feeling both amused and exasperated, “Why are you glaring at me like this?” She leaned over and dropped a kiss on the corner of his lips, gently brushing away the ink-black hair that fell on his cheeks. In the end, she still compromised, “I promise to come back at noon and have lunch with you then, okay?”

Only after hearing her say this did Luo Shaoxuan calm down a bit. He turned his face away, pretending to be angry. His pleasant voice carried a hint of morning hoarseness, “Hmph, it’s only good if you do what you say you will.”

“Mm, I’ll definitely come back early.” Si Qingyu stood up straight and rubbed her slightly sore waist, “Then I’ll go first.”

“Wait.” Luo Shaoxuan directly threw off the silk quilt and sat on the edge of the bed, not minding being exposed in front of her. He raised his chin towards the screen, “Bring me my clothes.”

“Alright.” Si Qingyu brought over his clothes and skillfully helped him get dressed.

Afterwards, he sent her off all the way from the bedroom to the courtyard entrance.

Luo Shaoxuan helped her tidy the black hair in front of her and gazed into her eyes with lowered eyelids, “Remember to come back early.”

“Mm.”

The man stood at the door, watching the woman’s back until her figure disappeared before withdrawing his gaze. The originally gentle and affectionate face slowly disappeared.

He stood silently at the door for a while before turning and returning to the room.

Si Qingyu, who was walking down the mountain in high spirits, saw a person she was quite unwilling to see halfway.

She looked at the young man from afar, frowning in distress. Why did she have to see him here? What was he doing coming up the mountain?

Si Qingyu didn’t think too much and instinctively wanted to avoid him, deliberately choosing to take a detour on a remote path.

The panting Li Tianyang didn’t notice the woman above. He leaned against a tree, gasping for breath. Although the weather had turned to autumn, he still sweated a lot walking all the way up.

The mountain path was also difficult to walk due to the rain in the past two days. The pampered Li Tianyang pouted and couldn’t help but complain, “Why live on such a remote and difficult-to-walk mountain, really……”

Although he complained verbally, it was just a couple of complaints. He leaned against the tree trunk to rest for a moment, then walked up whining and groaning.

When he saw the bamboo house, all his fatigue instantly disappeared. His face was slightly flushed from the heat of climbing the mountain, his eyes full of joy as he quickly walked to the courtyard entrance.

He was about to raise his hand to knock on the door but paused. He hurriedly tidied his slightly messy hair and wrinkled clothes. Only after confirming there were no issues did he raise his hand to knock.

The man who was lazily eating snacks in the courtyard suddenly heard a knock on the door. His beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as he looked towards the door. He didn’t think it would be Si Qingyu coming back. She never knocked when she returned.

Luo Shaoxuan indifferently withdrew his gaze and bit into the snack he was holding in his hand.

Only when the knocking became more and more urgent did he slowly stand up and walk to open the door with elegant lotus steps. When he saw the young man at the door clearly, his clear and calm eyes seemed to be as ferocious as a roaring beast for a moment.

But it only lasted a moment before returning to normal.

Under his wide sleeves, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, but Luo Shaoxuan’s face was exceptionally calm. The corners of his mouth curved into a faint smile, “Who is the young master looking for?”

Li Tianyang didn’t notice the man’s expression. His eyes were peeking into the courtyard, not seeing the person he was thinking of. Only then did he turn his gaze to the man in front of him. He knew this man was her official husband and suddenly felt a bit nervous, “I… I want to find Qingyu.”

That appearance was far from the fierceness when they first met.

“Qingyu……” Luo Shaoxuan gently rubbed his fingers, his eyes dark as he looked at the young man, the smile on his face deepening, “Then, come in.”

He stepped aside to make way, like a hospitable host.

Li Tianyang had no suspicion or guard. He nodded to him and walked in impatiently. He swept his gaze around the courtyard and turned his head back to look at the man who had closed the door and was coldly glaring at him, “Where’s Qingyu?”

“Ah…… she went to the clinic.” Luo Shaoxuan tilted his head slightly, looking at the young man.

“You… you’re messing with me!” The young man glared at him angrily and was about to leave in a huff, “I’m going to find her.”

But he was grabbed by the arm by the man who walked up. Luo Shaoxuan said indifferently, “Since the young master is here, why not sit for a while before leaving?”

Li Tianyang followed his gaze and looked at the snacks on the stone table, couldn’t help swallowing. He hadn’t eaten anything this morning. He shook off the man’s hand, “Alright then, I’ll sit for a bit.”

With that said, he walked to the stone table, his eyes shining as he looked at the snacks on the table. He looked at the man sitting across from him, “Can I eat?”

“Mm.” Luo Shaoxuan brushed open his wide sleeves and looked indifferently at the young man who was somewhat wolfing down the food. His lips parted slightly, “May I ask what the young master is looking for my wife for?”

“I have something to say to her.” The young man’s cheeks were bulging, and his words were muffled and unclear.

“What thing?”

Li Tianyang’s movements of eating the snacks slowed down a bit. He looked at the man across from him and thought for a while. Anyway, he would know about it in the future, so why not tell him now?

He swallowed all the snacks and opened his mouth, but for a moment, he didn’t know how to begin. His face slowly flushed red.

Seeing the young man’s shy appearance, Luo Shaoxuan only felt a surging and fierce murderous intent in his heart, like a giant beast breaking free from its cage, rushing towards him and tearing him apart.

Luo Shaoxuan’s eyes slowly turned gloomy, the corners of his mouth curving into a cruel smile, but his voice was low and gentle, “What’s wrong with the young master?”

Li Tianyang, who had his eyes slightly lowered, didn’t notice his terrifying expression. He twisted his fingers together and hesitated for a moment before speaking, “I… I’m here to make things clear with Qingyu. Last time, it was agreed…… that she would marry me.” What he actually wanted to say was that last time, she hadn’t given him a reply yet, hadn’t agreed to marry him, and now he was here to find her and wait for her affirmative answer.

But somehow, he ended up saying it like this.

Luo Shaoxuan’s pupils suddenly constricted, unable to control the bloodthirsty and violent beast in his heart any longer. He fiercely grabbed the young man’s delicate neck, his handsome face sinister and ferocious, his scarlet eyes coldly looking at the young man’s painful face, enunciating each word, “You’re delusional.”

Such a delicate neck only needed a slight force from his fingers to easily twist and break. Luo Shaoxuan looked ominously at the young man whose face was turning purple and struggling desperately, only then feeling a bit more comfortable in his heart.

Just as he was about to end this eyesore of an insect, Qingmo appeared beside him, kneeling on one knee, her voice hoarse and cold, “Qingmo earnestly requests the Master to spare his life!”

The fingers that were originally about to use force paused, and the man’s cold eyes slowly moved to the woman on the ground, “What did you say?”

“Qingmo earnestly requests the Master to spare his life!”

“Heh.” Luo Shaoxuan let out a cold laugh, finding it quite interesting. Qingmo had never pleaded for anyone like this before. She was a death warrior he had trained, never hesitating when killing people. He was satisfied with this point about her.

Now, she was actually pleading with him for a man?

Interesting.

Luo Shaoxuan flung his hand, fiercely throwing the young man to the ground. He walked to the stone table, picked up a handkerchief to wipe his jade fingers clean, and lazily sat on the stone bench, picking up a pastry and eating it leisurely.

His eyes appraised the two of them with some interest.

Li Tianyang, who was lying on the ground, clutched his throat and coughed violently, gasping for breath as he looked at the man in front of the stone table in horror. Just now… just now, he was almost killed by this man, just a little bit more.

“Thank you, Master.”

The familiar hoarse voice came from beside him. Li Tianyang stared blankly at the black-clothed woman beside him and suddenly widened his eyes, exclaiming in shock, “It’s you!” After saying that, his throat hurt and he coughed uncomfortably again.

The woman didn’t spare him a glance, only respectfully half-kneeling beside him.

On the other hand, Luo Shaoxuan was watching them with great interest.

Li Tianyang covered his mouth, his gaze constantly shifting between the two of them, as if he understood something, his face filled with horror, “You have a master-servant relationship?”

Luo Shaoxuan’s mouth curled up slightly as he glanced at him, chewing the pastry in his mouth leisurely.

What else was there that Li Tianyang didn’t understand? He looked at the two of them, gritting his teeth, “You master and servant are in cahoots, who knows how many people you’ve killed. I’m going to tell Qingyu.” He glared viciously at the leisurely man, “I’m going to let Qingyu see through you, you poisonous husband.”

With that said, he got up and was about to run towards the door, but was pressed down to the ground by Qingmo beside him. Qingmo looked coldly at this foolish young man, “The Master has already spared your life, don’t seek your own death.”

“You……” The young man glared at her fiercely.

“Who said I was going to spare him?” Luo Shaoxuan lazily propped his chin up, looking at the black-clothed woman indifferently, sneering coldly, “Qingmo, you actually didn’t eliminate such a fish that slipped through the net?”

“You’ve really disappointed me.”

Qingmo lowered her head, not answering.

“Kill him.” The man’s voice was bone-chillingly cold, without a hint of emotion, “This is your last chance.”

The woman’s hand pressing down on the young man trembled slightly. She slowly raised her head to look at the man. Even if her emotions were fluctuating at the moment, her face remained expressionless and cold.

Luo Shaoxuan’s beautiful eyes met hers indifferently, his red lips uttering cruel words, “Don’t make me say it a second time. You know I don’t have patience.”

“Yes.” Qingmo lowered her head, drew the curved saber at her waist, and pressed it against the young man’s neck. She looked at the young man’s face filled with terror, and for the first time, there was a hint of guilt in her eyes, “Sorry.” She said.

Li Tianyang, who was lying on the ground, felt the curved saber stuck at his throat, his eyes turning red, “Don’t……”

He didn’t want to die here.

“Luo Shaoxuan!!” Si Qingyu’s tall figure stood at the doorway, looking at this farce with uncontrollable anger. Her gaze swept over each of them one by one, finally settling on the man who had a look of panic and helplessness on his face. Her eyes were already slightly red, and her voice was low and hoarse, “What on earth…… are you doing?”
