Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Hui Zhilan looked at her disciples with her bright eyes, her face flushed with anger.

The disciples dared not look closely and quickly bowed their heads to show their respect.

At this moment, Di Fuxue asked Hui Zhilan in the front hall, "Sister-in-law, how is Shanshan?"

Hui Zhilan said with red eyes, "Shanshan wasn't feeling well, I've already taken her back to her room..."

Upon hearing this, the disciples couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

It seems that Di Shanshan was severely punished, as the sound of slapping continued, probably leaving her with cuts and bruises.

At this point, he probably wouldn't even be able to stand up, let alone come out to meet guests.

Because of Di Shanshan's matter, Hui Zhilan's eyes were red from crying, and she could barely stand up, her whole body swaying precariously.

Di Fuxue then showed a worried expression and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't be too angry. Shanshan is still young and has a bit of a spoiled princess temperament. Sometimes she inevitably acts a little immature."

Hui Zhilan nodded and responded.

Seeing that Hui Zhilan was also so heartbroken that she could hardly stand, Di Fuxue continued, "If Madam is not feeling well, why don't you go back to your room and rest? We can keep you company here."

Upon hearing this, the disciples behind her all agreed, saying, "Yes, Master's wife, don't be too sad."

"The dead cannot be brought back to life, so please take good care of yourself, Master's wife."

"Even if Master were alive, he wouldn't want to see Master's wife like this."

Upon hearing this, Hui Zhilan seemed so moved that her cheeks flushed and her shoulders trembled slightly, leaving her speechless for a moment.

At this moment, Chi Junlin put his arm around her shoulder and said to everyone, "Madam is a little agitated. I will take her back to her room now."

Upon hearing this, Di Fuxue thanked Chi Junlin, saying, "Then I'll trouble Miss Lin."

"It's just a matter of duty."

After saying this, Chi Junlin, accompanied by Hui Zhilan, slowly left the mourning hall.

Watching Hui Zhilan's limping figure, the disciples and elders couldn't help but sigh.

"Madam and Master were truly a loving couple... I never imagined that the death of the Manor Lord would be such a blow to Madam..."

"Yes... It's a pity that Master passed away at a young age and couldn't see this scene."

"If Master is watching from heaven, he will surely bless Madam and Miss, and keep them safe and sound forever..."

-

Shortly thereafter.

In Di Shanshan's room.

After returning from the funeral hall, she lay down on the bed.

She didn't even change her clothes, just stood there sulking.

After a while, footsteps were heard.

Someone gently knocked on the wooden door.

Thinking it was Hui Zhilan, Di Shanshan muttered, "The door isn't locked."

Then, footsteps entered the house.

A person walked slowly to Di Shanshan's bedside.

"Are you still angry?"

Di Shanshan was stunned when she heard the voice.

Turning his head, he saw that the person smiling at him was none other than Chi Junlin.

“Miss Lin Jun, it’s you…”

Di Shanshan was somewhat surprised and instinctively tried to sit up.

When he touched the wound on his buttock, he immediately gasped.

"hiss--"

Chi Junlin smiled and said, "Lie down and don't move."

As he spoke, he took out a bottle of wound medicine from his sleeve and sat down next to Di Shanshan.

She continued, "Your mother was worried about you, so she asked me to bring some wound medicine to apply for you."

"Lie here and don't move, I'll apply the medicine for you."

Di Shanshan hummed in agreement, then blushed and let Chi Junlin pull down her trousers.

Then, a cool sensation covered the red and swollen wound.

She endured the burning pain and couldn't help but lower her head.

Although it was Chi Junlin who disciplined Hui Zhilan earlier, she could sense that although Chi Junlin seemed to hit her hard, he actually used very measured force.

It only damaged the outer layer of skin, so it looks red and swollen.

There's nothing wrong with internal energy, muscles, and meridians.

Therefore, Di Shanshan was still very grateful to Chi Junlin.

As Chi Junlin applied ointment to Di Shanshan, he spoke to her gently, "Don't blame your mother for what happened today. She still loves you very much, but she can't agree to what you did today."

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, Di Shanshan became furious.

He immediately retorted, "I just didn't want to kneel before Di Cangshan, is that wrong? Where did I go wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin smiled and continued, "Of course I think you're right. Your mother also thinks you're right."

But if that's really the case, what will the other disciples think? What will the guests outside think?

Upon hearing this, Di Shanshan fell silent.

Chi Junlin then spoke gently to her, "You know the circumstances under which your mother gave birth to you, and she had no feelings for Di Cangshan. But what happens from now on concerns the status of you, a widow and her orphan, in Cangjian Manor."

If you don't acknowledge Di Cangshan, then what about Di Cangshan's family property and belongings? Do you want them?

Should Hidden Sword Manor support you and your daughter again?

If the intention is to provide support, what is the justification for it?

By this time, Di Shanshan was beginning to agree with Chi Junlin's words, but she still muttered softly, "It's fine if I don't want the family fortune..."

Chi Junlin then chuckled and lightly patted her bottom, making her cry out in pain, "Ouch!"

"Don't worry, it won't leave a scar."

Chi Junlin then said, "Go apologize to your mother later, and everything will be fine."

Di Shanshan gave a soft "hmm".

At this moment, he looked up and glanced at Chi Junlin again.

Suddenly, she slowly crawled into Chi Junlin's embrace.

"what happened?"

Chi Junlin held her in his arms and gently stroked her head.

Di Shanshan shook her head and took another sniff.

Then she whispered, "You smell like your mother..."

"is it?"

Chi Junlin sniffed his sleeves, feeling a little guilty.

It's possible that I was in the room just now and the scent of Huizhilan (a type of orchid) did come from there.

She has a strong body odor, and the scent is indeed very noticeable.

Chi Junlin thought for a moment, then took another light sniff of Di Shanshan.

It tastes exactly like Huizhilan tea, so delicate and refreshing, like the aroma of tea gently held in a young girl's mouth.

Di Shanshan then said, "Sister Lin Jun..."

"what happened?"

"Do you...like my mother very much?"

"Oh, yes."

"So...do you like me?"

Upon hearing Di Shanshan's words, Chi Junlin looked down at her and saw that her eyes were full of anticipation.

Chi Junlin then smiled and said, "Of course I like you too."

Di Shanshan blushed slightly, then asked expectantly, "Then... can you take us away?"

Upon hearing Di Shanshan's words, Chi Junlin was taken aback.

Then he understood what Di Shanshan meant.

So he continued, "You want to come with me and leave this place?"

Di Shanshan nodded, her expression serious.

She continued, "My mother has never liked this place since I was a child."

Therefore, I want to take her away from Hidden Sword Manor, far away from it.

From now on, never come back!

Chapter 206 I Have a New Idea

Hearing Di Shanshan's words, Chi Junlin smiled.

She had vaguely sensed these thoughts of Di Shanshan when she was on Sword Emperor Peak.

However, since Di Shanshan didn't bring it up, Chi Junlin naturally didn't say anything more.

But since Di Shanshan had asked, Chi Junlin continued, “Shanshan, you should think this through. As the legitimate daughter of Di Cangshan, if you continue to stay in Cangjian Manor, with the support of the Lou family and my master, you are very likely to inherit the position of manor lord after a few years when your martial arts skills have improved.”

But if you leave now with your mother, then the prestigious position of sect leader will be out of your reach.

Upon hearing this, Di Shanshan nodded without hesitation and said, "I've made up my mind. I don't care about sects or the position of sect leader. Leaving is the best choice for me."

Chi Junlin smiled at her, because Di Shanshan was still young and might not yet understand what it meant to be one of the sect leaders of the Five Great Masters of the Southern Kingdom.

However, judging from her expression, it seems that she has already made up her mind.

So he asked, "So, you want to come with me, right?"

Di Shanshan originally wanted to say that she would go with Sect Leader Tong and the others.

But seeing Chi Junlin's expression, Di Shanshan nodded as if possessed, looking intently into her eyes and saying, "I'm sticking with you! I'm going with you! I'll take my mother with me!"

Chi Junlin smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, I hope you won't regret your choice later."

Actually, Di Shanshan regretted her words as soon as they left her mouth.

Because she discovered that she seemed to know absolutely nothing about "Lin Jun".

Aside from knowing that she was Tong Yan's beloved disciple and possessed profound inner strength, he knew nothing else about her.

Even her martial arts style, where she lived, and how many people were in her family... were all unknown.

But once the words are spoken, there's no going back.

Di Shanshan could only console herself that, no matter what, she couldn't stay at Cangjian Manor for even a day longer.

As long as we can get out of here, who cares who Lin Jun really is?

At this moment, Chi Junlin patted her head and said, "Then you should prepare yourself first, and then talk to your mother. After things are settled here, I will take you and your mother away."

Di Shanshan nodded.

Then, Chi Junlin stood up and left with a smile.

After Chi Jun left, Di Shanshan remained silent for a while.

Then, I don't know what came to mind.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and touched his still sore buttocks.

He smiled excitedly.
