Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

Xie Xiaoyi was peering through the window, completely absorbed in the view, marveling at it in his heart:

"It's good to have power and influence. You can choose the most beautiful wife, and good genes will be passed down from generation to generation, so your children will naturally all be outstanding."

It's the same principle as coal mine owners marrying celebrities and supermodels; this princess was born a beauty, clearly taking after her mother.

He felt that Princess Yuanzhi was indeed a beauty of unparalleled grace, with an exquisite figure and appearance.

Before he could take another look, the sound of water in the bucket gradually stopped, and Wang Yuanzhi had already gotten up to change her clothes.

She was draped in light gauze, her graceful figure concealed by a thin, moon-white shirt.

After getting dressed, Wang Yuanzhi gave orders to the maids:

"You may all leave. I want to rest tonight and don't want to be disturbed. Don't come unless I call you!"

"It's Her Highness the Princess!"

There's nothing left to watch!

Xie Xiaoyi felt a sudden itch in his heart and secretly lamented the pity.

Just as he was about to look away, he suddenly caught a very faint sound of wind breaking—

That was the sound of a master flying through the air, definitely not from an ordinary guard in the manor!

"Someone's coming!" Xie Xiaoyi's expression changed slightly. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and silently moved towards the eaves by the window.

His back was pressed against the shadow of the beams and pillars, making him seem to blend into the eaves, revealing not a trace of his presence.

Next second,

A man with a well-proportioned figure and handsome demeanor opened the window and entered without making a sound. He then quickly closed the window with his other hand, his movements extremely swift.

Xie Xiaoyi was taken aback: "A flower thief? Could I have run into a fellow thief?"

He landed gently and continued to peer through the crack in the window he had previously opened.

Wang Yuanzhi's face lit up with the joy unique to young girls as she softly called out, "Second Brother!"

The man strode forward, gently put his arm around her waist, and spoke in a voice full of affection:

"Yuanzhi, there was an incident on the Imperial Road today, and the security outside is very tight. I'm late, I hope I've kept you waiting?"

Wang Yuanzhi nestled in his arms, gently punched his chest with her hand, and said in a sweet voice:

"I wasn't waiting, I just... I just took a bath and thought you weren't coming tonight."

The man looked down at her, his voice gentle: "How could I not come? It's just that the Forbidden City is under too much martial law right now."

"Martial law? Second brother, what terrible thing has happened?"

"The Second Prince, Wang Yu, was assassinated in the street today on the Imperial Road. His death was extremely gruesome, almost a form of torture!"

"What?! Brother Yu... Brother Yu has been killed?!"

"It's absolutely true. The entire Forbidden City is now searching for the murderer, Xie Xiaoyi."

"Xie Xiaoyi?" Princess Yuanzhi frowned and murmured softly, "Such an ordinary name, how could he assassinate Brother Yu in the street?"

Upon hearing this, the man said in a low voice, "So what if the name is ordinary? The real villains are not defined by their names, but by their intentions."

Xie Xiaoyi is a notorious scoundrel and villain in the lower echelons of the underworld!

Xie Xiaoyi cursed under his breath: "You scum are listening to your whispers right now. If you're so capable, give me a live broadcast."

Then Princess Yuanzhi asked again, "Second brother, is he really that bad?"

"Yes, he was a notorious womanizer, and was even known as the 'Master Thief' by the lower-class underworld figures."

"The Thief King?"

"He is the Grand Marshal of the Flower Thieves. I heard that he specifically targets the female disciples of the Kunlun Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the three upper sects, and is regarded as a role model by a group of lecherous thieves."

"Oh! The Master Thief? I wonder if he's handsome or not?"

Upon hearing Wang Yuanzhi ask Xie Xiaoyi if he was handsome, the man's jealousy flared up instantly: "Handsome? Does he even deserve it?"

That thief had a weasel-like face, a sallow complexion, and a sleazy, impoverished look; nobody would give him a second glance on the street!

Wang Yuanzhi was taken aback: "It's that ugly?"

"It's more than just ugly!"

The man got more and more carried away with his words, spouting complete fabrications:

"He only managed to succeed by using underhanded methods like drugs, incense, and sneak attacks! He's a cowardly coward who schemes in the shadows!"

Wang Yuanzhi suddenly realized, and frowned in disgust: "How dare he call himself 'Master Thief'? He's more like a rat crossing the street!"

The man nodded and said softly, "Yuanzhi, don't mention such filthy and vulgar things again. It's just an insult to your ears."

He's not even worthy of carrying your shoes, let alone being compared to me. One day I will personally capture him, tear him to pieces, and avenge the Second Prince!

In the shadows outside the eaves, Xie Xiaoyi's face darkened as he listened.

He roared inwardly, "Tear me to pieces, huh? Fine, wait and see. A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years."

The man's jealousy subsided slightly, and he quickly changed the subject: "Let's not talk about those dirty things, they'll spoil our fun."

As he spoke, he lowered his head slightly, his thin lips slowly approaching the corner of Wang Yuanzhi's lips, wanting to place a kiss on her.

Wang Yuanzhi's cheeks flushed, and she instinctively turned her head away, saying, "Second brother... please don't..."

The man paused, his smile deepening. "Girl, you promised me you'd give yourself to me today?"

Xie Xiaoyi's heart skipped a beat. Oh my, they're really going to do a live broadcast?

Princess Yuanzhi said softly, "I...I did promise you, but this is my first time...I...I'm shy..."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Upon hearing this, the man chuckled softly, took out a black brocade handkerchief from his bosom, covered Wang Yuanzhi's eyes with it, wrapped it around the back of her head, and tied it into a gentle knot.

"Second brother, what are you doing?"

As she spoke, Wang Yuanzhi reached out to pick it, but the man stopped her.

"Don't pick it, that way you won't be shy."

Princess Yuanzhi was indeed very obedient, and slowly lowered her jade-like hand.

Blindfolded?

That kid's got some fun!

This reminded Xie Xiaoyi of what he had done to Yun Qianxun back then.

He was about to continue reading when a thought suddenly struck him.

A gentleman takes his revenge, even after ten years.

I don't think it will take ten years!

Inside the room, the man coaxed her gently, his palm lightly resting on Wang Yuanzhi's slender back, and slowly pushed her to lie down on the soft couch.

"Don't be afraid, we love each other, just feel my tenderness even with your eyes closed..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the window seemed to move, and a slight breeze suddenly swept through the room, so light that it was almost imperceptible.

The man felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if he had been gently touched by a piece of ice silk...

"Second brother, they say a girl's first time is... so please be gentle with me tonight!"

"Second brother, even though I can't see, I can tell you practice martial arts very hard, because your muscles are so strong!"

"Second brother...why aren't you saying anything?"

"Ugh... Second brother, don't touch there, it tickles!"

"Stop teasing me, say something!"

"You, you're so mean... all you do is bully me..."

"Ugh...stop it...I...I'm too scared to move!"

......

"Second brother, you're so kind!"
