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

Furthermore, Wenren and I will do our best to help everyone this time.

I dare to assure you all in the name of my master—this time, I will completely eradicate the banditry in the Dongting area for the sake of the people of Xiangshui County.”

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's assurances, the Hui clan members immediately showed expressions of relief.

After all, Chi Junlin is now the beloved disciple of the martial arts alliance leader, and her words are, in some ways, more trustworthy than those of the government.

Lai Yuanwei, who was standing to the side, was unaware of the full story, but he still showed a surprised expression when he heard Chi Junlin's words.

He had witnessed the power of the Dongting River Gang firsthand; for so many years, no one had dared to claim that they had completely eradicated the banditry.

I wonder who this young girl is, that she dares to make such a boast and say such big words.

However, as a mere son-in-law, Lai Yuanwei had no say in this place.

So he just sneered to himself and watched from the sidelines.

Then there was a loud "bang".

Hui Ziheng slammed his fist on the table and stood up, saying, "I've long disliked those gangsters! They've committed countless crimes of burning, killing, and looting over the years, harming countless people!"

If you two can help my Xiangshui County get rid of this great scourge, you will be the benefactors of the Hui family of Xiangshui!

Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or not, I admire you both from the bottom of my heart!

Even if it fails, it doesn't matter. At worst, we men of the Xiang River will fight those bandits to the death!

Upon hearing Hui Ziheng's words, everyone in the hall looked surprised.

Previously, when Wenren Tianxia said that the people of Xiangshui County had no backbone on the official road outside the city, Hui Ziheng felt a surge of anger.

Considering that Hui Shi had already made enemies with the Water Gang, he was stuck in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat. He might as well fight to the death and fight for a chance to survive.

His words at that moment were truly thought-provoking.

The other members of the Hui family were also inspired by him and stood up to vow to completely eliminate this banditry.

As the only outsider among the male members, Lai Yuanwei couldn't help but feel that this group of people were not mentally stable.

Should we fight the Water Gang to the death?

They're really courting death!

I don't know what's gotten into them, making them all run off to their deaths... Anyway, I'm not going.

However, no one noticed the unusual expression on Lai Yuanwei's face at this time.

Hui Sanmei remained calm at this point.

Then he spoke again to Chi Junlin, "What Miss Lin Jun said is naturally our long-cherished wish. However, this matter probably cannot be separated from the support of the court officials in the prefecture."

I fear that the prefect is still frightened by what happened before and will not dare to oppose the Water Gang again.

If he objects to this, then…

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin waved his hand and continued, "There's no need to worry about the prefect."

Seeing her confident demeanor, Hui Sanmei couldn't help but ask, "Why is that?"

Chi Junlin smiled and said, "I am absolutely certain that he will fully support this matter."

Chapter 246 She was just treating my illness

After the banquet ended, Chi Junlin and his entourage leaped out of the banquet hall.

Soon after, accompanied by Hui Sanmei, they went to stay in the inner courtyard of the Hui residence.

The entire Hui family mansion is divided into an east courtyard and a west courtyard. The east courtyard is where the eldest branch of the family, including Hui Sanmei, lives, while the west courtyard is where the second branch of the family, mainly Hui Erye, lives.

Hui Zhilan's room has been reserved for her by Hui Sanmei all these years, and now she can move in directly after the servants clean it.

As for Chi Junlin and the others, they were arranged to stay in the most luxurious upper room in the East Courtyard.

Upon entering, one can immediately sense the ingenuity of the courtyard, with its exquisitely crafted flower and bird corridor.

However, even this level of luxurious courtyard was somewhat inadequate compared to Chi Junlin, who was used to grand occasions.

To her, this exquisite courtyard, like Hui Sanmei's, was simply a smaller version of the Lou Mansion where Lou Xiangfei lived.

Of course, she wouldn't say these things in front of Hui Sanmei and the others.

After all, to the Hui family, he was merely a disciple of Tong Yan, the leader of the martial arts alliance.

In this place, Liuli is probably the only one who knows that she is Chi Junlin.

But Liuli is an obedient and good girl, so she definitely won't tell others about this.

-

After Chi Junlin and his entourage checked in, the Hui family members also returned to their rooms to rest.

Hui Sanmei then discussed with the members of her clan for a while, seemingly about contacting other clans in Xiangshui County the next day.

After things were settled, she had the wet nurse take her daughter back to the side room, while she returned to the master bedroom in the courtyard.

Hui Sanmei had just sat down and was deep in thought.

Then she saw her husband, Lai Yuanwei, come in from outside with a shameless grin.

When the two were younger, Lai Yuanwei wasn't as addicted to gambling as he is now, and he was quite gentle and considerate towards his wife and daughters.

At that time, she also felt that she had found a perfect husband who was willing to treat her well and could stay with her forever.

But for some reason, Lai Yuanwei has not changed his bad habits over the years, and his gambling addiction has grown stronger day by day. If he doesn't go to the gambling den every other day, he will throw a tantrum at home and beat and scold his servants.

Although the Hui family was wealthy and Hui Sanmei controlled the clan's finances, they could afford to pay back the money he gambled away.

But seeing his idle and irresponsible behavior, Hui Sanmei couldn't help but become more and more irritated.

Although she didn't show any disgust at this moment, she still looked at him coldly and said indifferently, "So you've finally decided to come back from the gambling table?"

Lai Yuanwei had just gambled for half a day and had his fill of gambling, so he felt a little ashamed.

But today, Hui Sanmei dressed up carefully because she was going to meet guests.

What I see at this moment:

She was dressed in white mink fur, adorned with a jade hairpin and a gold hair ornament. Her lips were painted red, her eyebrows delicate, and her neck graceful. Her waist was slender, her hips shapely like a vase, and her skin was smooth and supple, free of sweat. Wherever she went, a subtle fragrance wafted over her.

Since becoming addicted to gambling, Hui Sanmei had rarely been intimate with Lai Yuanwei. Now, seeing his wife's glamorous makeup, he was very interested and wanted to have marital relations with Hui Sanmei.

But Hui Sanmei felt nauseous when she saw Lai Yuanwei's lustful appearance.

She immediately refused, saying, "I'm going to my second sister's place right away, so please don't mess up my clothes."

Seeing this, Lai Yuanwei had no choice but to hang his head in dejection and leave in a huff.

Hui Sanmei pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked towards the courtyard where Hui Zhilan was.

Seeing that his wife had really left, Lai Yuanwei couldn't help but feel annoyed.

He wondered if he was still Hui Sanmei's husband, and whether he could even decide how to be intimate with his wife!

However, as a son-in-law, Lai Yuanwei had little to say.

At this point, he had no choice but to seek out a handsome young servant in the mansion to quell his anger.

-

A short while later, Hui Sanmei arrived at Hui Zhilan's residence.

Although what she had said to Lai Yuanwei earlier was just an excuse, now that she was here, she really did want to talk to her second sister.

When she thought about how Hui Zhilan had been away from home for many years, and how the two of them hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, Hui Sanmei felt a pang of emotion.

Looking back, the two sisters shared a deep bond, though they were young and inexperienced.

In the blink of an eye, they have all married.

Furthermore, Hui Sanmei also heard that Hui Zhilan's husband was killed in a feud with the martial arts world not long ago.

Hui Zhilan is probably heartbroken over her husband's death right now.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have traveled all that way back to her parents' home to relax.

She wondered what she should say to Hui Zhilan when she saw her later.

If possible, try not to bring up the matter of your brother-in-law Di Cangshan, so as not to trigger Hui Zhilan's pain again.

Thinking this, Hui Sanmei walked into the courtyard.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from inside.

It seemed to be a series of soft kisses accompanied by the woman's gentle panting.

Hui Sanmei felt a little doubtful and moved a little closer.

Then I heard his breathing become more and more rapid.

The smacking and sucking sounds became increasingly realistic.

Hui Sanmei's footsteps approached, but she hadn't had a chance to speak yet.

Then a soft moan came from inside, followed by a frantic question, "Who...who's here?"

Upon hearing Hui Zhilan's voice, Hui Sanmei coughed lightly and replied, "Sister, it's me. I wanted to talk to you."

Hui Zhilan simply said "Oh," and after a while, she said, "Then, little sister, come in."

Upon hearing this, Hui San's sister pushed open the door and entered.

Then I saw Hui Zhilan sitting on the edge of the bed, her clothes slightly disheveled.

Also in the room was Miss Lin Jun, who was drinking water from a glass.

Hui Sanmei couldn't help but look suspicious, wondering if she had misheard the sound she had just heard.

If there were a man and a woman in the room at that moment, then it would be somewhat acceptable.

But since there are two women here, they can't be kissing and being affectionate, can they?

Hui Zhilan looked at her younger sister and said with a slight blush, "Sister, please don't misunderstand. I've been traveling and working hard these past few days, and I caught a cold, so I asked Miss Lin Jun to treat me."

Her internal strength is profound, and her medical skills are even more... astonishing. Just now, Lin Jun was using her internal energy to dispel the cold from me. I was so hot I couldn't bear it anymore, so I took off my clothes and made some noises..."

Upon hearing this, Hui Sanmei nodded and said that it sounded plausible.

Otherwise, it couldn't be that Hui Zhilan had an affair with another woman while her husband's body was still warm...

Thinking of this, Hui Sanmei turned her head and glanced at Chi Junlin again.

This woman was handsome and dignified, her beauty unforgettable.

Then I felt... if that were really the case, it wouldn't seem so strange?

Her face flushed slightly, and she felt really ashamed.

It is clear that Miss Lin Jun is righteous and fearless, risking her own safety to eliminate bandits and evil in Xiangshui County.

He secretly badmouthed the other person in his heart. That's truly despicable behavior.

At this moment, Chi Junlin looked at Hui Sanmei and revealed a dazzling smile.

Then he wiped his mouth and smiled at Hui Zhilan, "Since the Third Miss has something to discuss with Madam, let's stop here for now."

As for the treatment... it's alright to wait a little while.

"If it's convenient, I'll come see you later, Madam."

Chapter 247 This hatred will last forever

Upon hearing the implication in Chi Junlin's words, Hui Zhilan couldn't help but blush slightly.

She nodded slightly, her voice tinged with shyness, and said, "Then, Miss Lin Jun... please come again later..."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Hui Sanmei couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

If you're just here to treat the illness, why do you have to come back at night?

Don't the two of them sleep at night?

Before she could think too much about it, Chi Junlin had already gotten up and was about to leave.

Hui Sanmei quickly bowed to Chi Junlin and said a few words of thanks.

After she left, Hui Zhilan and Hui Sanmei sat down on the bed and talked about their private matters.

The two reminisced about the past, starting from their childhood, and continued until their parents passed away. When the family suddenly suffered a misfortune, Hui Sanmei had to support the entire family on her own.
