However, the other party doesn't seem to like painting and usually spends his days with herbs and medical books.

Su Ning had once seen the other party's painting, which depicted a withered lotus. It was indeed lifelike, capturing the image of the withered, lifeless lotus.

Just looking at that painting evoked a sense of sorrow and pain.

But before she could even touch the painting, it was taken away, preventing her from properly appreciating it.

She asked Tangxi privately, but Tangxi said she had never seen You Xunchun paint and asked if she was mistaken.

Su Ning certainly wouldn't be mistaken.

However, You Xunchun himself is a very secretive person.

Although she didn't know why he joined the main characters, he hadn't harmed any of the three in the original story. As for what happened later, Su Ning had no idea.

Perhaps he is just planning ahead, or perhaps he wants to use the main characters to do something.

In short, these are all just her guesses.

You Xunchun was clearly taken aback, not expecting the other party to come to her about this matter, and immediately refused without hesitation: "No."

"Why? Brother You's painting is clearly so good." Su Ning asked back.

"My painting is just for fun, something that can't be presented in a respectable way. Even if you took it, you wouldn't be able to sell it for much money."

Did You Xunchun think she wanted to sell the painting for money?

Whom do you look down on?

Although she doesn't have much money now, she will have money someday.

She glanced at him with a mixture of resentment and pity, subtly closing the distance between them. Her fingers brushed across his arm, which was bound with a strip of cloth, carrying a subtle hint of drawing them closer.

You Xunchun felt a slight itch on his arm and leaned back slightly without making a sound. His long eyelashes trembled slightly. Did she think he was a child like Yue Zijin?

He's not someone this girl can mess with.

Su Ning stopped there, but just as the man was about to brush her hand away, she changed her target, grabbing his sleeve and crying, "Brother You, please help me! I accidentally walked into a shady shop today."

"The owner there loves peach blossom paintings the most. If I can't provide him with an exceptionally good one, he'll kill me."

The girl's fingertips gently hooked his sleeve, her stray hairs falling to her shoulders, and her peach blossom eyes shimmering with moisture, as if they held the spring waters of Jiangnan in March.

Her voice was as soft as honey, with a slightly nasal tone at the end: "Please help me this once, okay?"

Don't you like to pretend?

Su Ning was determined to make him unable to keep up the act.

You Xunchun gazed into the girl's eyes, which reflected the spring water. The veil on her face swayed gently with her movements, like ripples spreading across a lake.

He knew that the face beneath the veil was the most beautiful color in the world, and even You Xunchun could not deny that.

It's a mystery how her parents could have given birth to such a femme fatale.

He coldly observed the changes that occurred around him as he walked with her. The girl in front of him was confident in her beauty and felt that as long as she had this face, she could act without any scruples.

She clumsily used her beauty to achieve her desired goals, employing the most despicable means to seduce everyone into her heart.

Needless to say, even the two hotheads staying at the inn now seem to have fallen for her.

And the Taoist priest of Taihang Temple...

These figures, who seem unattainable to ordinary people, were thus easily captured by the other side.

And yet, she was still not satisfied and even tried to seduce him?

The person before him was so delicate and fragile that he could easily kill him with a single effort.

But he wouldn't do that. Since he had let the other person go on their first meeting, he wouldn't go back on his decision.

The girl seemed unaware of the danger and took another step closer to him. The fragrance of her hair mingled with her sweet scent and lingered around his nose. Her slender fingers gently scratched his palm.

Her eyes, slightly upturned at the corners, were so beautiful they were captivating: "I know Brother You is the best. This is a matter of life and death. Without the Peach Blossom Painting, I'd be dead. You wouldn't just stand by and watch me die, would you?"

He didn't respond.

Her voice lowered, whimpering like a kitten: "If you don't agree, I... I'll just stay here and not leave."

As soon as Su Ning finished speaking, she felt a large hand grip her waist.

The next second, she was pulled into his arms, and the faint scent of herbs emanating from the man enveloped Su Ning with an undisguised aggressive aura.

She was forced against the table, but the man's long legs blocked her way. Before her was the man's prominent Adam's apple, and when she looked up, she saw a pair of dark eyes that were as deep and unfathomable as a cold pool.

This is a very intimate pose, but it's also very dangerous.

Su Ning is currently unable to move, and a hint of confusion still lingers in her eyes.

"Brother You...?"

She was a little scared, wondering how things had turned out this way.

Unfortunately, it's too late to escape now.

The man's outer robe had fallen to the ground at some point, along with the woman's veil.

When the man's lips touched hers, Su Ning knew she had won.

The person who loses their temper first is the loser, and they'll lose terribly.

……

The girl was forced to endure this sudden accident. In the silent space, apart from the medicine boiling on the small stove not far away, there was only the sizzling sound of water stains.

At first, the man may have intended to punish her, so his kisses on her lips were fierce and harsh. But as he gradually learned the art of kissing, he became more and more enamored with her.

As the position made her waist increasingly sore, she couldn't help but moan, "Ugh...no more." She pressed her hands against his chest, but his hands held her down, while his other hand gently patted her buttocks.

Su Ning froze for a moment, inwardly cursing the other person for being a repressed pervert.

Only when the steam from the stove began to rise did he release the girl from his grasp, slightly withdrawing himself, his heavy breathing mingling with hers.

The moment their lips parted, a glittering silver thread emerged from where they had touched, shimmering in the candlelight before slowly breaking off and falling into his slightly open robe, leaving a faint, damp stain.

"I will give you the painting tomorrow; consider it your interest."

The man turned around, and the strip of cloth on his right arm was now in a mess, revealing red and swollen flesh.

He must have fallen quite hard, but he managed to withstand it.

Su Ning pretended not to see it, picked up the veil, and hurriedly pushed open the door and left.

Her cheeks were so red they looked like they could drip blood; if someone came out at that moment, they would see such a beautiful sight.

Inside the room, You Xunchun touched his reddened lips, still somewhat incredulous. He knew the other party was using clumsy methods to seduce him.

He had always disdained countless beauties who wanted to throw themselves at him, and was even annoyed by them.

So, seeing the other person's appearance just now, his original intention was to punish her and let her know that there are some people she can't afford to offend, but he didn't expect that he would end up lingering in her place.

If such a woman gains power, she will become lawless and act recklessly.

This is the first and the last time.

You Xunchun said this to himself.
