This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 359 Temptation
After dark, the entire island was plunged into darkness.

Only a few scattered spots were lit with faint lights, which, from a distance, looked like fireflies in the forest.

Shuiwu's father was named Shuinan, a dark-skinned, burly man.

His appearance is quite rugged and does not resemble Shui Wu.

Whether it's the color of her hair, the color of her eyes, or anything else, she's different from Shuiwu.

"Perhaps this girl isn't their biological child..."

When Luo Zijun met Shui Nan in person, she secretly made some guesses.

When Shui Nan saw him, he first looked him up and down, then, leaning on his cane and standing on one leg, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Not bad, at such a young age, you have such miraculous medical skills. You are a promising young man."

Luo Zijun naturally offered a few words of modesty.

As the three sat down to eat, Shui Nan smiled and said, "I heard that Young Master Hua came to the island this time for other matters?"

They were clearly forcibly brought here!
Luo Zijun inwardly complained, but naturally didn't show it on her face. She took the opportunity to cup her hands and said, "We have a friend who has gone missing. Miss Shui said that our friend is on this island. I wonder if we could meet him?"

Shui Nan glanced at her daughter, neither confirming nor denying, and smiled, "Young Master Hua and his party came to the island not just to find that friend, right?"

Luo Zijun did not hide anything and directly stated her purpose: "We do have other matters to attend to. We are preparing to cross the sea to the Kingdom of Women and hope to find a senior named Red Bird. We have heard that only he dares to steer a large ship across the seas of the Kingdom of Nine Islands."

After saying that, he carefully observed the expression on the other person's face.

Shui Nan maintained her smile and did not show any other unusual expression.

He picked up his wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, and slowly said, "The waters of the Nine Islands Kingdom? Going there is a nine-out-of-ten chance of death."

Luo Zijun said, "There are some things that, even if you know they are fraught with danger, you still have to do them."

"Oh?"

Shui Nan put down her wine cup, looked at him with some interest, and asked, "Why does Young Master Hua want to go to the Kingdom of Women? For fame? Or for profit?"

Luo Zijun said, "It's to find my wife."

The room suddenly fell silent.

Shui Wu, who was sitting to the side, was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "You...you're already married?"

Luo Zijun looked at her and said, "I've been married for a long time, and I have more than one wife."

Shui Wu paused for a moment, then asked, "How many?"

Luo Zijun stretched out one palm, then the other, looked around, and then looked at her and said, "Sorry, there are too many to count."

Shui Wu stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly stretched out her hand and said, "Give it back to me."

Her expression turned cold, and her azure eyes suddenly turned cold as well.

"Give you back what?"

Luo Zijun looked puzzled.

Shui Wu stretched out her hand, looking at him coldly, but said nothing.

Luo Zijun looked confused, then thought for a moment and seemed to finally remember. She took out the gold bracelet and said, "This bracelet?"

Shui Wu's pretty face hardened: "Yes, give it back to me!"

Luo Zijun couldn't help but say, "These days, people help others treat illnesses without even offering payment? They give the money and then want it back? Is that even possible?"

Shui Wu glared at him, then suddenly stood up and snatched it away.

"Hey……"

Luo Zijun sighed.

Shui Nan sat opposite them, watching them with a smile, pouring himself a drink and not saying a word the whole time.

Luo Zijun felt that at this moment, this man should say a few words.

After all, he saved the other person's life and saved so many other people.

"Senior, do you know the whereabouts of that Red Bird Senior?"

He asked directly.

Shui Nan did not answer, but drank another cup of wine and revealed his purpose: "Young Master Hua, if you are willing to stay here, I can marry A Wu to you."

Just as Luo Zijun was about to speak, he raised his hand again and said, "Don't rush to refuse, I haven't finished speaking yet. Besides A-Wu, you can choose any woman on this island, including the A-Ling sisters and Little Rabbit and her daughter whom you met today."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "As you can probably see, there are humans, sea monsters, and members of various demon races here. If you like, you can have any woman here or in this town, or even any woman from other places."

The room became quiet.

Luo Zijun thought to herself: It seems that doctors are quite popular here.

Shui Nan looked at him and said, "If you have any other requests, you can bring them up."

Luo Zijun shrugged and said, "To be honest, I'm very tempted by your offer, especially..."

He glanced at the blushing girl beside him.

When Shui Wu saw his gaze, her already rosy cheeks turned even redder, and her beautiful, ocean-blue eyes glared back at him defiantly.

"Especially the Ling sisters, to be honest, I really like sisters."

Luo Zijun said without blushing.

Shui Wu paused for a moment, then slowly clenched her fist under the table.

"But I can't agree to that."

Luo Zijun stroked the wine cup in his hand and said calmly, "The reason I left home and traveled so far to come here is to find my wife and bring her back. My wife is waiting for me to come and fetch her, and my wives and concubines at home are also waiting for me to return. I cannot abandon them. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Shui Nan's expression shifted.

Shui Wu's gaze was also fixed on him.

"Unless you can find a way to bring my wives and concubines, as well as the woman I'm currently searching for, here."

Luo Zijun looked at the girl beside him and said, "Of course, if Miss A-Wu doesn't mind."

A-Wu glared at him, her fists clenched tightly.

Shui Nan smiled slightly: "In the end, Young Master Hua still wants to cross the sea to find your wife?"

"Yes."

Luo Zijun was very frank and honest.

Shui Nan didn't say anything more. He picked up the wine pot, poured himself another cup of wine, and then raised his cup, saying, "Since Young Master Hua is determined to leave, then I have nothing more to say. As for that senior named Red Bird, I'm sorry, I don't know where he is."

Luo Zijun didn't press the matter. She picked up her wine glass, clinked it against his glass from a distance, and silently finished her drink.

After finishing his meal, he got up to say goodbye.

Shui Nan nodded without saying much, only saying, "A Wu, you should escort Young Master Hua back."

Shui Wu didn't say anything, her face was cold, and she went out first.

Luo Zijun followed behind her, and after they left the courtyard, he asked with a puzzled look, "Miss Shui, didn't your father say he wanted me to stay the night? Why..."

Shui Wu turned her head, looking at him coldly, and said, "Didn't you already refuse?"

Luo Zijun said, "Ah, when did I refuse?"

Shui Wu stared at the expression on his face for a while, and seeing that he seemed genuinely unaware, she sneered and said, "My father said he would let you stay and marry me to you, but you refused, didn't you?"

Luo Zijun said seriously, "I did refuse the offer, but I didn't refuse to stay at your house tonight. Your house has a bed and blankets, and it doesn't smell bad. It's better than sleeping in a prison cell, right?" Shui Wu was silent upon hearing this, staring at him for a while before finally speaking, "Are you really unaware, or are you pretending?"

Luo Zijun spread her hands, looking completely innocent: "I really don't know."

Shui Wu snorted coldly, glanced at him again, and continued walking forward, her ponytail bouncing behind her as she said coldly, "My father means that you can only stay at my house tonight if you agree to stay on this island, and you can directly..."

"Why should I talk to you?"

Luo Zijun asked deliberately.

Shui Wu took a few more steps forward before suddenly stopping, turning to look at him and saying, "Consummate our marriage!"

"???"

Luo Zijun looked surprised: "You're going to consummate the marriage before even having the wedding ceremony?"

Shui Wu looked at him coldly and said, "Who told you to be so powerful? My father couldn't wait for me to keep you under control."

Luo Zijun looked at her and said, "Doesn't that Shui Wu girl have any thoughts of her own?"

Shui Wu continued walking forward and said, "I'll listen to my father."

Luo Zijun said, "I think that for such a life-changing event, Miss Shuiwu should make her own choice and take charge. There is no need to completely follow her parents' arrangements. Sometimes, the choices made by parents are not necessarily correct."

Shui Wu remained silent and did not speak.

Luo Zijun didn't say anything more.

A bright moon rose into the night sky, its cool light enveloping the entire island.

A cool breeze blew from the lake.

The two walked and soon arrived at the prison cell.

Luo Zijun sighed and said, "It's so embarrassing. They'll definitely laugh at us when we get inside."

"What are you laughing at?"

Shui Wu asked the question with a cold face, knowing full well what she was asking.

Luo Zijun sighed again, did not answer, waved her hand, and prepared to go inside.

As Shuiwu watched his retreating figure, she suddenly asked, "Do you really like the A-Ling sisters?"

Luo Zijun turned her head and said, "It's fake. They're not even as pretty as Shui Wu."

Shui Wu snorted coldly, seemingly immune to his sweet talk, and said, "I'm no match for those two in the cell. You should go in and sleep with them."

After saying that, he turned around and left quickly.

As Luo Zijun was watching her back and the light, bouncing ponytail behind her, the one-eyed man named A Kun came out and said, "It seems that things haven't been settled."

Luo Zijun looked at him and said, "So what? Are you going to kill me?"

Ah Kun grinned and said, "It's not that bad. You're a miracle doctor, a benefactor to all the patients on our island. I'd rather kill myself than kill you. Let's go, let's go inside."

Luo Zijun returned to her cell.

Wang Qiangzhuang and the others were somewhat surprised to see him return.

After Ah Kun and his men left, Luo Zijun sighed and said, "Captain, for the sake of our important matter, I rejected a tremendous temptation tonight."

Wang Qiangzhuang said, "Let's get down to business. Have you found out anything about the Red Bird?"

Luo Zijun said, "No, but..."

"But what?"

Wang Qiangzhuang thought for a moment and said, "Recount your conversation with the other party tonight, word for word."

Luo Zijun naturally wouldn't omit a single word, but she carefully recounted the general conversation.

After he finished speaking, Song Erlang in the opposite cell hissed a few times as if he had a toothache, then sighed deeply, his voice filled with pain, "We're all human, and I'm even more handsome than you. How come all these wonderful things have to happen to you? Beautiful girls, sisters, mothers and daughters, vixens... sigh..."

After listening, Wang Qiangzhuang pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid he probably knows quite a lot."

After a pause, she suddenly added, "Hua Liu, the other party probably won't give up easily and will try other ways to seduce you. You must be patient."

Luo Zijun sat down in the corner and said, "Don't worry, Captain. I resisted such a big temptation tonight. I don't believe he can come up with anything even bigger."

"That's hard to say; there might be an even greater temptation."

Song Erlang said with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Luo Zijun didn't say anything more, and looked up at the corner next to her.

Xu Ziyin and Lu Yao, one in a red dress and the other in a white dress, sat gracefully in that corner, their eyes fixed on him.

Luo Zijun glared at him and said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen such a handsome and upright gentleman before?"

"Humph."

Xu Ziyin snorted and turned her face away.

Lu Yao, standing to the side, continued to look at him expressionlessly.

Luo Zijun ignored them and recalled what had happened that night. Then she turned her back, took out the bronze mirror, and couldn't help but send two messages to Miss Bai.

Miss, do you know what I gave up for you? You can never imagine the heavy price I paid for you.

Of course, I'm doing this willingly. Wait for me, I will definitely come to find you.

"Ok?"

After sending the two messages, he suddenly realized that he had sent them to the wrong person!

He actually sent it to that guy called "Fairy of Yaochi"!
hateful!

He hurriedly searched for a way to withdraw, but could not find one.

Just then, the Jade Pool Fairy replied: [You're deluding yourself. This fairy wouldn't even look at you.]

Luo Zijun was speechless and immediately replied: [You're the one who's being presumptuous. I sent it to the wrong person. I meant to send it to my wife.]

Jade Pool Fairy: [Heh, that's a common tactic used by scumbags. If I hadn't rejected you, you probably wouldn't have said it was sent to the wrong person.]

【roll! 】

Luo Zijun only replied with one word and couldn't be bothered to pay any more attention to her.

Then he edited the message again and sent it to the Moon Palace Fairy.

At this moment, the fairy from Yaochi sent another message: "[If you really want to see me, it's not impossible. Send me a nude photo of yourself so I can see your figure.]"

Luo Zijun ignored her.

A little while later, another message came in: "You sent one, so I'll send one too. Whoever lies is a dog."

Luo Zijun thought for a moment and replied: "Are you sure you want nude photos of someone completely naked without any clothes on? Photos where every part of their body is visible? Including their face? If you're sure, then you post it first. If you post it, I'll definitely post it too. Whoever lies is an animal."

"Ok?"

What the hell!

After sending the message, he suddenly realized that he had sent it to the wrong person again!

He actually sent this message to Miss Bai!

Because Miss Bai had just replied to his message: 【No need to look for me】

Done!Done!
Just as he was in shock, Miss Bai replied to his message: "Are you still chatting with someone? Planning a nude chat?"
