After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

"Susu, are you really not coming with us to see that Master Duan Shui?"

Yue Zijin rested her chin on her hand, looking at Su Ning who was feeding Tang Xi with a mournful expression.

The girl opposite rested her chin on her hand, leaning lazily against the window, her stunning beauty undeniable even in her simple white dress.

Upon hearing this, she casually picked up a plum pastry with her slender fingers and then leaned closer.

The aroma was so enticing that Yue Zijin froze in fright, but still obediently opened his mouth. As the girl's fingertips withdrew, they inadvertently touched his lips, and the boy's face flushed bright red.

The moment his teeth touched the plum pastry, a sweet and sour taste spread across his tongue. He didn't dare look at her and could only lower his head to chew.

Tangxi, on the other hand, laughed heartily at his pathetic appearance.

Su Ning's eyes sparkled with innocence, yet her voice was sweet and gentle: "I've been having so much fun these past few days, I'm a bit tired. I'm not as physically strong as you martial artists."

"You should at least let me rest for a bit."

Tangxi agreed, "That's right. Mr. Duanshui has been staying at Lotus Peak for so many years, and I still can't figure out his temperament. I only remember visiting him when I was young, and then I never went back."

"Because he's a really strange person, he scared me so much when I was a child that I cried my eyes out."

When Su Ning heard this, she was quite surprised: "Xi Xi, you actually cried when you were little? Then this person must have some skills."

Tang Xi clearly didn't want to recall it, and quickly rubbed her arms: "No, I'll come back as soon as I drop you off."

Yue Zijin finally chewed on the plum pastry. After finishing the pastry, his mood improved. After all, Pei Yunlian wasn't there, and Su Su had personally fed it to him.

"Alright, Susu, you stay here in the manor and rest well. I'm going to go and meet this Mr. Duan Shui."

Seeing Yue Zijin's proud and arrogant appearance, Su Ning knew that he was bound to return disappointed.

However, the protagonist is the protagonist after all, and what he has in abundance is perseverance and willpower.

Today is the last day before the martial arts tournament. They rested for a day after returning from Lingzhou City, and this is the second day.

Of course, this originally had nothing to do with these younger generations.

In the battle against the Poison Demon, Tangxi and the others all suffered some minor injuries, but after a day of rest, they were all back to normal and were fine.

The person from Shili Xuanling must have come to see Tang Jingshan, but it's unclear what the outcome of their discussion was.

Over the past three days, virtually all the well-known sects in the martial arts world have arrived at the manor and been accommodated in the Juxian Tower next to the manor.

According to Tangxi, only the people from Fotuo Temple and Taihang Temple have not yet arrived.

Lin Ci, on the other hand, wasn't in a hurry.

After all, the other party hasn't arrived yet, so even if she wanted to make a move, she couldn't cook without rice.

You Xunchun has been acting rather strangely these past two days. According to Yue Zijin, he caught a cold and hasn't left the house yet.

Su Ning didn't believe it; she was afraid he was secretly plotting something bad.

She naturally didn't care what bad things he did, since the main plot had nothing to do with her. But she was just curious about what kind of identity he was hiding.

After all, she still wanted to find something to use against him so she could torment him.

Su Ning had already bribed the servants of Songbai Courtyard, so that someone would inform her whenever the other party made a move.

Of course, it wasn't exactly bribery. She simply told them that she wanted to care for her companion, but that there was a difference between men and women, so Xiaomei and Xiaoqin took on the task for her.

Su Ning was reclining on the chaise longue when, just then, Xiao Mei and Xiao Qin came in carrying fruit.

Xiao Mei and Xiao Qin should be a year or two older than Tang Xi, but both of them have baby faces and are quite adorable.

However, since the two were the head maids in Tangxi Courtyard, they were more than capable of ordering around the servants in Songbai Courtyard.

The two put down the fruit and then affectionately surrounded Su Ning, one massaging her legs and the other rubbing her shoulders.

They seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Xiao Mei rubbed her shoulders, but kept asking from time to time, "Miss, was I too rough?" She was quite careful, afraid that she might mistake Su Ning for a glass beauty and accidentally crush her.

Xiaoqin rubbed her legs, staring blankly at Su Ning's face. Her skin was as white as snow, and her beautiful eyes beneath her delicate brows were so captivating that they took one's breath away. Her exquisite and flawless face, even with the slightest furrow of her brow, made one's heart tremble...

Being able to look at Miss Su every day is the happiest day of the entire Red Maple Garden for the servants. Not to mention Xiao Mei and Xiao Qin, who can serve her at close range, it's truly something to be envied by all.

Xiaoqin quickly shook her head and said to Su Ning, "Miss, the Doctor You who lives in Songbai Courtyard just went out towards the back mountain."

Su Ning stopped the two of them and asked, "Is there anything on the back mountain?"

The two shook their heads, but Xiaomei thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing special about the back mountain. If we're talking about something special, it should be a cold pool. Master specifically instructed us not to go towards that pool unless absolutely necessary."

"It's very cold there. If you accidentally fall in, you'd probably lose your life."

"As for the others... there are only some rare medicinal herbs that grow on Mount Songyun."

Su Ning understood, and then said to the two of them, "The person you ordered shouldn't have been discovered, right?"

Xiaomei and Xiaoqin exchanged a glance and smiled at each other. Xiaomei stepped forward and smoothed Su Ning's hair. "Don't worry, Miss, that man is just a laborer."

"I didn't get a chance to speak with Doctor You; I only saw him leave in the distance, and that place could only be the back mountain."

Su Ning stopped the two of them and was about to leave, saying, "If Xixi comes back, tell her I'm going to play in the back mountain."

But when I got to the corridor, I saw two little tails following closely behind me.

Both of them looked worried, leaving Su Ning unsure of what to say. She could only helplessly reply, "There's no danger in the back mountain, and besides, I'm going to find Brother You."

The little harp shook its head like a rattle-drum, "How can this be? A young lady must have someone accompany her when she goes out."

"It's windy outside, young lady, you should put on a cloak." Xiaomei tied the moon-white cloak she was holding around the other's neck.

"Okay, I know you're worried about me, but I'm really fine. I just picked some flowers for you to play with."

With a pat on the head for each person, Su Ning easily left.

The two looked at each other and then touched the spot that Su Ning had just touched.

Xiaomei: "Isn't this a dream?"

Xiaoqin: "No, Miss Su touched me too."

Ahhhhh! The two jumped up and down excitedly.

The servants in the courtyard looked at the two of them with envy, but there was nothing they could do, as they were the young lady's head maids.

The servants tending the flowers and plants nearby also looked on with envy.

One of them stopped what he was doing and asked, "Is that our young lady? From a distance, she looks like a fairy descended from heaven."

The man looked at the unremarkable man in front of him. The man's features were indeed not ugly, but for some reason, people always forgot what he looked like. He was usually taciturn and did not communicate with them.

Unexpectedly, this is the first time I've spoken to Miss Su.

This man was a new gardener who shouldn't have been working in the Red Maple Garden, but he was chosen because he was quick-witted and skilled at tending to flowers and plants.

"Xiao Xing, that's Miss Su, not Miss, but our Miss's good friend."
