There are too many female protagonists with deceased husbands in the Qin Dynasty's Past Books.

This left Nongyu and her group in a state of utter chaos.

"Where did it go? Where did it hide? We've laid out all sorts of bait—rouge, powder, stockings, and underwear—but we still can't find the little guy."

Unable to hide her anxiety, Nongyu muttered to herself as she looked up at the area under the bed.

Yan Lingji, who was standing next to her, had been quite indifferent. Her gaze was only slightly following the Fire Rain Agate hanging from Nongyu's waist, and she showed no intention of helping to carefully search every corner.

But upon hearing Nongyu's muttered words, his expression couldn't help but turn strange.

Rouge, face powder, stockings, and undergarments? What kind of bait is this? Are you sure we're looking for that white fox that keeps circling around Amo's feet, and not Amo herself?

Hiss, wait a minute.

What use would a fox have for stealing those things? Even if it has some intelligence, it's not a monster from a story, so what use would it have for them?

Moreover, I examined it closely, and it was clearly a female fox.

Surely it's not some preparation for transformation or something? Don't be ridiculous. As for demons, Yan Lingji has seen so many strange things in the Baiyue region since she was a child, but she has never seen a real demon transform.

The more Yan Lingji thought about it, the more she felt that the white fox's unique hobby must have been secretly instigated by Jiang Mo.

That guy has had some weird quirks since he was a child!

They even said before that Zi Nu's undergarment was a gift from Xiao Bai! I said, how could that be! Seriously...

If you need anything, just let me know.

Thinking this, Yan Lingji's expression became slightly more serious. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and a faint flame flickered in her light blue eyes.

Originally, Yan Lingji wasn't particularly interested in finding the white fox.

For some unknown reason, the little guy seemed particularly hostile towards Yan Lingji, but Yan Lingji wasn't like Hu Meier who couldn't resist anything fluffy, so she naturally wouldn't be polite to the white fox either.

While Nongyu and the others regarded it as a treasure and were curiously discussing whether the little guy was male or female, Yanlingji simply grabbed it and pried it open to examine it closely.

The little guy has disappeared without a trace, but Yan Lingji doesn't care at all.

Seeing Nongyu's anxious expression, and with his mind drawn to the Fire Rain Agate swaying at her waist, he decided to end his idly daydreaming and offer his help, thinking that there were not many old friends left in Baiyue and he should help as many as he could.

Only now has Yan Lingji finally found a reason to work hard.

Find that little guy who likes to pick up things randomly, and confiscate the stolen goods he's hoarded before Jiang Mo returns!

Look at Ah Mo, which girl has his eye on?

With her slender, straight fingertips gently brushing across the corner of her eye, under the attention of her innate true energy, the faint flames in her eyes suddenly intensified, distorting and altering Yan Lingji's original vision.

Even through the wall, you can see those overlapping high-temperature heat sources.

Pshaw, it's over already? Compared to Amo, they're really weaklings. The ones on the other side, though, are kind of interesting; how did they even manage that pose?

There are quite a few tricks...

Her mocking gaze swept over the various lewd scenes that were commonplace in the Purple Orchid Pavilion. Yan Lingji showed no embarrassment whatsoever; instead, she began to appreciate them with great interest.

Until suddenly a flutter of emotion stirred in my heart.

A subtle stinging sensation, emanating from the depths of my heart, flowed slowly through me, carrying a sigh mixed with resolve.

This……

Without even thinking, Yan Lingji immediately realized that this inexplicable heartache must have come from Jiang Mo, who had used the [Eternal Bond Gu] to make her feel the same way.

Which family's daughter is it this time?

A helpless yet indulgent smile bloomed on her lips as Yan Lingji savored the complex emotions that gradually spread through her heart, and in a daze, she felt as if she had entered a completely different world.

She stood there, her vulnerability heartbreaking and pitiful.

Her figure, seemingly swayed by a gentle breeze, possessed an astonishing tenacity that allowed her to persevere through near-despair, finally catching up with that faint glimmer of hope.

I want to touch it, yet I fear that what I see is nothing but a false dream.

She longed for a passionate embrace, yet feared being pushed away and rejected by the person in front of her, who would tell her that she had simply mistaken someone for someone else.

Despite her countless worries and fears, she still took that step forward.

Honestly, such deep and passionate longing is impossible to refuse. If I were to say no, wouldn't I seem like that cold-blooded villain?

A soft sigh, filled with helplessness.

Even though she couldn't see the face of the person she had never met, Yan Lingji felt as if she were seeing her former self, making it even harder for her to feel any resistance.

Tsk, you're really lucky, Amo.

Given your personality, you definitely can't remain indifferent to this ill-fated relationship. So be decisive and don't let this good girl down.

Bring her back soon, let me see how adorable this little sister is...

Jiang Mo thought Yan Lingji was bluffing him when she said she didn't mind. But now that they were actually in this situation, although Yan Lingji was a little annoyed, she didn't really resist much. Instead, she decided to secretly give Jiang Mo a push.

As for why, even Yan Lingji herself wasn't entirely sure.

Perhaps influenced by the [Eternal Bond Gu] and touched by Jiang Mo's feelings, Yan Lingji felt a natural affinity for her sister whom she had never met.

It's also possible that some people are just giving up.

After all, there's a saying that goes, "If you can't resist it, you might as well lie down and enjoy it." When you're enjoying all sorts of unexpected troubles, what's being suppressed is life itself.

My fingertips gently pressed against my chest, and my fair and delicate skin slightly indented.

The flames that rose quietly burned silently, seemingly without emitting any heat. Even Nongyu, who was diligently searching for the white fox, was completely unaware of them. Yet, a delicate blush quickly spread across Yan Lingji's fair skin.

The surging desires within him would inevitably travel to Jiang Mo's heart through the [Eternal Bond Gu].

Oh, right, we need to add some more ingredients.

If it's just lust, Ah Mo will definitely find a way to reject it if he senses something. We need to add something more useful.

Let me think, just now Amo seemed to be troubled by whether something was real or fake.

Analyzing Jiang Mo's possible thoughts and reactions, Yan Lingji raised her hand again and wiped her eyes with her fingertips, which were already tinged with a faint pinkish-red.

With one heart, we borrow the power of the Dharma to overcome obstacles.

The flames that had been lit in Yan Lingji's light blue eyes suddenly surged and intensified, almost bursting out of her eyes, causing Nongyu, who was aware of this, to exclaim in surprise.

But before she could instinctively rush over to check on Yan Lingji's condition, the flame quickly disappeared from the latter's eyes.

Only the shimmering water in her eyes remained, making her exceptionally beautiful and charming.

"What, were you worried about me, Nongyu? Heh, I'm fine, but why do you look so distressed?"

Smiling, Yan Lingji patted Nongyu's shoulder and suddenly moved closer to her.

Her gaze was slightly unfocused, and her breath carried a burning heat. Her smooth fingertips, like paintbrushes, painted a blush on Nongyu's face.

"Let's do something fun instead."

Jiang Mo, far away in the Pear Garden, was unaware that after teasing Zi Nu, Yan Ling Ji had now extended her wicked hand to Zi Nu's beloved younger sister.

However, Jiang Mo did receive Yan Lingji's feelings.

And she couldn't help but mutter to herself: Yan'er, why did you have to come and cause trouble again by sending this over at this time...

Hmm, it seems to actually be somewhat useful?

After a slight hesitation, Jiang Mo accepted the power and desire transmitted by the Heart-to-Heart Gu. As the scorching power coursed through his body, Jiang Mo's breathing became heavy, and a fire seemed to flicker in his eyes.

Subconsciously, he tightened his grip on Hu Meiren's hand a little more.

Amidst a slightly surprised gasp from the other party, a strong and powerful chest pressed against the snow-white and smooth softness of Hu Meiren's body.

"Shh~"

With her head tilted slightly back, Hu Meiren opened her smooth, pink lips as if to say something, but Jiang Mo stopped her by touching her lips with his fingertip.

Feeling the scalding heat emanating from her fingertips, Hu Meiren's heart couldn't help but tremble.

The flickering firelight in those dark, deep eyes made the latter feel both nervous and expectant.

Having further confirmed Jiang Mo's identity, she naturally found it difficult to suppress her emotions.

But in this place, in front of so many people, it was really too bold. Even if she could throw worldly etiquette to the wind, she didn't want the other person to be wanted nationwide after only one meeting...

What she didn't know was that Jiang Mo saw something different at that moment.

The stunning beauty in his arms ignited a rising heat within him. Though the thermal imaging made it impossible to discern her exact features, even the faint, alluring silhouette was enough to make Jiang Mo's mouth go dry.

Not daring to look any longer, Jiang Mo quickly turned his head away.

In my memory, in the direction where Zi Nu and Hong Lian were, those people were still standing under the tree, chatting about something.

But this time, Jiang Mo finally caught a glimpse of something.

The "beautiful woman" next to the white fox was clearly shrouded in a strange power that subtly influenced everyone's perception.

It was an illusion, after all.

This did indeed align with one of Jiang Mo's possible guesses, but what surprised him was that the source of that illusionary power was actually the white fox at the feet of the fake beauty Hu.

This fox.

Sure enough, it was Xiaobai, whom I had raised in Zilan Pavilion. How did this guy end up here?

Chapter 77 Intentional or Accidental?

Haha~

Sitting obediently at the feet of the "fake beauty Hu," Xiao Bai yawned listlessly.

Its fluffy tail drooped listlessly to the ground.

Its slender, slightly narrowed eyes exuded a languid charm, as if it might curl up into a ball at any moment, hug its tail, and fall fast asleep.

His lazy demeanor made Zi Nu take another look.

They look so alike!

She couldn't help but think of the little white dog that Jiang Mo let roam freely in Zilan Pavilion; after it had eaten and drunk its fill, it always looked so lazy.

She usually ignored the flirting from the other sisters in the pavilion.

Occasionally, a fleeting look of disdain could be seen in its incredibly intelligent eyes, as if it thought the two-legged creatures that tried to amuse it with various things were utterly foolish.

Only when she senses Jiang Mo approaching will she suddenly perk up.
