Fairy, shut up! I'm really not blondie.

"Mother?"

The goddess Luo approached.

Why is Mother sitting on the floor?

"That's right."

Su Qing pointed to the half-finished game on the table, which had been set up by Shi Si Ba Dao at some unknown time, and said.

"I slipped halfway down."

"Aunt Xiao?"

Why aren't you up yet?

"Could it be that he's trying to renege on his debt because he knows he's going to lose?"

Su Qing said.

He immediately helped Xiao Yunyan up.

This action.

But this also aggravated the ropes binding him.

She couldn't help but gasp.

Looked up.

They met the concerned gaze of the Goddess of the Luo River.

"Mother."

"what happened to you?"

"Did you hurt yourself somewhere?"

wrong.

and many more.

How is this going?

Xiao Yunyan was completely confused.

Had I not been discovered?

but……

He glanced down at his body.

suddenly.

She felt a familiar power.

It's a power that you can often sense around Su Qing.

Could it be... an illusion?

So that's what he meant earlier?

Those red ropes are the medium for illusion.

It makes it so that outsiders cannot see anything unusual about the area covered by the red rope.

At this moment, in the eyes of the Goddess of the Luo River.

His adoptive mother was helped up, somewhat dazed.

She was dressed neatly, just as she had when she left.

Her face still had a slight redness.

"No, I'm fine."

After reacting.

Xiao Yunyan quickly pulled her wrist back from Luo Shen's grasp.

This is illusion.

Techniques to deceive the eyes.

If there is prolonged contact, it will still be detected by touch.

He met the boy's ambiguous smile.

Xiao Yunyan cursed viciously in her heart again.

This little thief knows everything.

They're just making fun of her!

Not only that.

Su Qing smiled and pointed to the chessboard, saying...

"Aunt Xiao, since everything is alright now..."

"Come on, shall we finish this game of chess?"

"Don't forget, you just promised me that if I win, you'll grant me one request."

what?

When did she ever agree to something like that?

Take advantage of others' danger!

and also.

This chess game was clearly set up by him on purpose.

The thief is a hater.

They are now poised for a decisive victory and are difficult to resist.

Isn't this a sure way for her to lose?

"Aunt Xiao."

The boy sighed softly and said with a wronged expression.

"Are you really going to back out?"

"Mother."

Seeing this, Luo Shen quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying...

"It's fine."

"He...won't make things difficult for you."

he?

Su Qing?

It won't be difficult for you.

It's clearly not making things difficult enough!

Xiao Yunyan had a lot of grievances to tell.

But there was no way to pour it out to Gu Qingyu.

Then look at the boy's feigned aggrieved expression.

She could only roll her eyes inwardly.

No.

How can there be such wicked people in the world?

finally.

Because the goddess Luo was nearby.

Xiao Yunyan had no choice.

They had no choice but to accept the fact that they had been tricked into making a request.

It was clearly me who was being bullied.

In the end, Su Qing still got the benefit.

This is simply unreasonable!

The game ended hastily.

Xiao Yunyan said.

"It's because I'm not as skilled as others."

"Qingyu, it's getting late, we need to leave soon."

"I'm going back to my carriage now."

Wait for her to go back.

First, take off these damn red strings from your body!

We'll figure out how to get revenge later.

"Oh, Aunt Xiao, take care."

Do you need me to take you?

"no need."

Xiao Yunyan now avoids him like the plague.

"OK then."

"However, Aunt Xiao, it's best not to touch the area where you just got abrasions for now."

"Be careful of wound infection."

A pause in his steps.

What do you mean?

"Mother, are you hurt?"

"I do not……"

Looking at the boy's meaningful gaze.

Xiao Yunyan fell silent.

Could that be what you meant?

The boy nodded at her, chuckled, and said.

"Don't worry, the wound is very shallow."

"The medicine has already been applied and the bandage has been bandaged. It should be ready to be removed in about two or three days."

The implication.

Not hard to guess.

but!

Should we let her wear these red strings for two or three days?

What's the difference between that and being tortured all the time?

But it was Su Qing's decision.

There was no turning back.

Not only that, but he also winked in a pretentious manner, looking at Xiao Yunyan, who appeared dignified and calm on the outside but was on the verge of exploding inside.

"what happened?"

"Would Aunt Xiao like to sit down and chat some more?"

"...No."
