Grudge Breaker

Chapter 234: Carrying a Foreign Object
"Even if you drink the invisibility potion, the footprints in the dry landscape outside the private room window cannot be hidden."

"Mo Tingfeng has always used ruthless tactics, and this involves such a big secret of the new White Robe. If he wants to make a serious move today, neither you nor I will be able to escape unscathed."

Shu Xinglong's words made Li Qingshui feel a chill down his spine.
.
It turned out that Mo Tingfeng had already noticed someone under the window of the private room at that time.

Just as he was pacing the house in anger and laughter because of Shu Tinglong's blatant statement that "her admiration for Song Weichen gradually developed into romantic feelings for him after a chance encounter", he accidentally walked to the window and caught a glimpse of an extremely elegant dry landscape outside. Circles of ripples were floating on the sandstone of Shirakawa-ri, which made people feel peaceful and calmed him down quickly.

When I calmed down, I realized something was wrong.

There was a line of extremely light and delicate footprints on the dry landscape outside the window - it was obviously a woman's.

Although no "human" presence could be sensed, the two footprints directly below the window were obviously deeper than the other places, and the gravel was still sliding slightly, indicating that there was clearly someone here.

Mo Tingfeng immediately understood that there was a woman hiding here and eavesdropping.

Judging from the traces of sand and gravel sinking, she should have been there for quite a while. It is very likely that the woman had been hiding there before they entered the private room.

This place is located deep in the Moon Watching Tower. Shu Xinglong is hosting a banquet for Si Chen, so the security is extremely strict and ordinary people cannot enter at all. This person has stayed here for such a long time and has not done anything other than eavesdropping. There is only one possibility - she is Shu Xinglong's person.

Mo Tingfeng carefully recalled the conversation he had today with Shu Tinglong. The biggest risk was that the secret that "the person in white robe is a woman" would be leaked, but it was not a big problem. He had originally planned to report this matter to the territory master and then make it public to the world to clear Song Weichen's name, and it would soon no longer be a secret.

Thinking of this, Mo Tingfeng did not say anything, turned around and returned to his seat, but his words thereafter became more cautious.

It was not until the end of the banquet, when Shu Xinglong was seeing them off, that Mo Tingfeng pretended to be indifferent and told him about this "discovery".
.
"Why didn't he expose me right away?"

Li Qingshui was puzzled.

"This is the sophistication of Mo Tingfeng."

"Obviously he has already decided that you are mine. Even the eavesdropping was at my instigation. Exposing you in public will only embarrass me and have no greater value."

"And that casual remark before he left not only gave me a hint, but also left room for me to maneuver. All in all, I owe him a favor. Apart from anything else, from now on, I must be completely sincere in all business and transactions with him."

Li Qingshui suddenly realized what was going on and thought he was very smart, but in the end he ended up losing more than he gained.

"Shui'er, make sure you know your identity and never do such reckless things again."

"I can give you everything, and I can take everything back."

"Remember, keep everything you heard today to yourself. Fortunately, he didn't take the opportunity to attack you, otherwise your identity as the boss of Ghost Market, 'White Tiger', would have been exposed soon."

"At that time, do you think it would be more appropriate for me to dirty my hands to protect you, or to sacrifice the pawn to save the king?"

……

"Brother Taki, I'm so sorry, I know I was wrong!"

The more Li Qingshui listened, the more frightened he became. He quickly forced himself to stand up, walked behind Shu Xinglong, who had returned to the table to sit and write, and gently massaged his shoulders.

"What can I do to make amends for you?"

Shu Xinglong did not stop writing with his right hand, but raised his left hand to his shoulder and gently patted the back of Li Qingshui's hand.

"I am very satisfied with your performance in bed today. I will just take this as making up for my mistake."

After a pause, he rubbed her hands a few times fiercely.

"I won't be back tonight. You should have a good rest and take care of yourself. We will continue tomorrow. You must make up for your mistakes today."

There is no need to make the implication of the words clear.

A bitter smile appeared on Li Qingshui's face, as if this man only cared about this matter, which made her very sad.

At a glance, she saw that he was writing a visiting card to the territory's eldest princess, Qin Xueying. Li Qingshui felt even more complicated - if he hooked up with her, she would probably have no place to go in the future.

"Are you going to the Territory Lord's Mansion?"

He asked casually pretending not to care, but he didn't stop rubbing his shoulders.

"I'm going to Lord Yuheng's place. The princess was injured during the spring hunting, so Lord Sikong asked me to bring some medicinal herbs. That's good, it's a good opportunity to pay a visit to the princess, so I'll have more excuses to go out in the future."

Only then did Li Qingshui notice that there was a brocade box on the table, which contained Huangquan Sun Grass and other precious medicinal materials that were extremely hard to find in the world.

She looked at the brocade box and the visiting card, and suddenly had an idea. She rubbed his shoulders with just the right amount of force, and her voice was as sweet as honey.

"Why bother Brother Long with such a small matter? I'll go. We're all girls, so it'll be easier to get to know each other. If I can form a good relationship with Princess Qin Xueying, it will also be a benefit to you. Don't worry, Long, I will make up for my mistake."

Shu Xinglong thought about it and agreed.

"That's fine. I can't afford to delay the business I just discussed with Mo Tingfeng."
"What? You've been hanging out with Boss Shu behind my back for a while. Did you negotiate a big deal?"

"Public officials can't engage in private property, right? Mr. Mo, please don't break the law knowingly."

In Wuqingju, Song Weichen was seriously "educating" Mo Tingfeng, just because he told her that he had discussed a big business with Shu Xinglong.

"You are Si Chen, you are financially strong, your family background is only slightly less than that of Boss Shu, what are you trying to achieve? Don't say I am not a spendthrift, even if I go out and be a spendthrift girl every day, I can't spend all your money, listen, it's not worth it, we won't do this business anymore."

Song Weichen taught him earnestly, and Mo Tingfeng couldn't help laughing.

"You're planning to accuse your future husband of abusing his power for personal gain without even asking what our deal is?"

"Ah this..."

Song Weichen blinked.

"Aren't there two things involved in collusion between officials and businessmen? Money and women."

"You can't be after women, because you don't have the physical condition to do so because of the love-cutting ban. Then there is only one thing left, people die for money, Lord Si Chen, you are confused!"

Mo Tingfeng shook his head, feeling both helpless and amused.

With such a witty young wife, what else can he do except pamper her.

Taking her hand and leading her into his arms, Mo Tingfeng looked at Song Weichen very seriously.

"My deal with Mr. Shu is to ask him to find the 'husband's mask' of the ghost king of corpses for me. In exchange, after the death curse is lifted, both masks of the ghost king of corpses can become his personal collection."

"It sounds like he's at a disadvantage. Did he agree?"

"I agreed, because he happened to be in a bit of a guilty conscience."

Mo Tingfeng gently kissed Song Weichen on the forehead.

"I have roughly deduced what happened in the Pingyang forest that night. There are at least three forces involved, and not all of them are enemies. In short, no matter who the opponent is, no matter what the opponent's ultimate goal is, I will win for you."

Song Weichen's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously.

"I will also work hard to train for you, strive to be able to protect myself, and not become a stumbling block on your way to defeating the enemy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Weichen suddenly covered his Huangting - the strange feeling in the dream came again, and something inside moved... Although he had never been pregnant, Song Weichen had already imagined a picture of fetal movement in his mind.

"what happened?"

Mo Tingfeng noticed that she looked different.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the feeling of a foreign object stirring in his Huangting disappeared immediately. Song Weichen was about to say that it was okay when he suddenly touched something in his belt... The corner of his mouth twitched and he took out a copper spoon.

"Well, I may have to go back to Wangyue Tower again... Ahem, I accidentally brought back Boss Shu's room key."

Looking at the copper spoon, Mo Tingfeng's face darkened obviously.

"Hey, don't have that expression on your face. You can see that I didn't ask for it. He gave it to me on his own initiative! I just left in a hurry and forgot to return it... Hey! How could I possibly want another man's bedroom key, don't you think~~"

Song Weichen didn't know why he was so nervous...

Just as she was daydreaming, Mo Tingfeng gently pinched her chin and lifted it up, and she met his starry and ink-black eyes.

"Give the copper spoon to Guyu and ask her to return it. Song Weichen, you are not allowed to see Shu Qilong alone in the future. You know he has ill intentions towards you, but you still go after him. You are like a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth."

"If you dare to see him alone again, your legs will be broken. Do you hear me?"

With his chin pinched by him, Song Weichen couldn't speak, so he could only blink his eyes to show that he understood.

The delicate and tempting lips were so close to him at this moment, her breath lingered in his five senses and six essences, Mo Ting was so moved that the wind was strong and the restriction was getting tighter and tighter, but he still couldn't help but want to kiss her.

Just as he got closer, he found that the little guy looked strange, as if he was enduring some kind of pain just like him.

"Weiwei, what's wrong with you?"

Mo Tingfeng quickly released his grip on her chin and watched over her carefully.

Song Weichen covered his Huangting area, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"It hurts so much. I dreamt that I was pregnant that night. I'm afraid it's true..."
