"What nonsense are you spouting?" Ning Rongrong playfully slapped Xiao Ze, a little embarrassed.
It wasn't just Xiao Ze; everyone else felt that Ning Rongrong's move was truly vicious.
"Why are you looking at me? I'm dealing with enemies. Not killing them directly is already good," Ning Rongrong said, hands on her hips, completely justified.
"That's true," Dugu Yan nodded.
Among them, she was the quickest to accept it, being a member of the Dugu family after all.
"Is that all?"
"Mm, let's go. We still have to go shopping," Ning Rongrong clapped her hands.
"Then let's go. The Stealth Pill's effect still has some time left."
Xiao Ze sensed that there was no one outside, so he immediately led everyone away, leaving the door open.
A while after Xiao Ze and the others left.
At Yi Hong Courtyard, around a corner of the long corridor.
A woman in a light green embroidered long dress was gracefully walking with a tea tray. The silver hairpin in her hair swayed slightly as she moved with light steps.
She was on her way to deliver tea to the private room next door, but as she passed a certain door, her peripheral vision accidentally caught a glimpse of the scene inside.
Clang!
The tea tray slipped from her hands, the porcelain cups shattered into several pieces on the floor, and hot tea splashed onto the hem of her skirt, but she didn't notice.
Her gaze was fixed on the room.
A Fatty was tied up tightly like a fat fish waiting to be slaughtered, his round face pressed against the ground, and his mouth was stuffed with half a piece of pastry, no one knew who put it there.
Another rather handsome man was pressed against his back, his arms tied behind him, his handsome face buried in the Fatty's nape, his breath stirring a few strands of fluff.
The most outrageous part was the large bow tied around their waists, the ends of the rope bouncing up and down with the Fatty's snores.
It was truly an eyesore.
"This...this..."
The woman in the green dress's lips trembled, and the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground.
She had been at Yi Hong Courtyard for many years; what kind of romantic scene hadn't she witnessed? But the scene before her was truly too absurd.
Although she knew that buying two men was also an option, such an eyesore of a scene appearing in Yi Hong Courtyard was something she had not expected.
After all, this was Yi Hong Courtyard, a place with so many beautiful women.
Two men... Yi Hong Courtyard, what a niche topic.
This had exceeded her professional understanding!
She stiffly turned her head, "Are guests... playing this wild now?"
"Come quickly and look! There are two men tied together inside!"
Someone shouted, and the entire Yi Hong Courtyard instantly erupted.
Immediately, girls in red and green dresses ran over, holding up their skirts, tiptoeing to peek through the door crack. Some covered their mouths and chuckled, some widened their eyes, and some even pulled out small notebooks to record this new way of playing.
"Oh my god! This way of tying... so professional!"
"That Young Master Dai usually looks quite proper, I never thought..."
"With the Fatty underneath, will he be able to breathe?"
"I don't know, but they both play so well."
"I've learned this position."
"..."
Several drunken wealthy merchants squeezed through, half-sober: "Let me through! Let me through! Let me see too!"
As a result, one of them, upon seeing it, immediately spat out the wine in his mouth: "Holy crap! Someone actually comes to Yi Hong Courtyard to play something this exciting?"
Another stroked his chin and commented: "The way these knots are tied... quite skilled!"
"It is indeed a bit exciting, but are these two men eunuchs? They don't want soft, fragrant women, yet they're playing with each other first?"
"Who knows, but it certainly looks quite shocking."
"These two seem to frequent Yi Hong Courtyard. Perhaps today they wanted to try something different."
The boss, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, pushed through the crowd and peered into the room, his blood pressure instantly soaring: "This... what kind of impropriety is this!"
If other young masters found out that the girls here were not as tempting as men, wouldn't that be the end?
How much money would be lost every month!
"Mm... huh?"
Dai Mubai frowned, his consciousness gradually returning. He felt something soft and warm beneath him, and he could even hear heavy breathing.
Wait, breathing?!
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked down.
Ma Hongjun's round, chubby face was pressed against the ground, with half a piece of pastry crumbs still at the corner of his mouth, and he himself... was pressing on his back!
"Holy crap!!!" Dai Mubai's pupils constricted, and with an angry roar, he directly rolled off Ma Hongjun, but because his hands and feet were tied.
He crashed onto the floor with a thud.
Ma Hongjun was completely startled awake by the shout. He groggily turned his head, only to find himself tied up tightly like a suckling pig waiting to be roasted, his hands and feet bound together, and a huge bow tied around his waist.
"This... what's going on?!"
He tried to wiggle, but with a twist of his plump buttocks, he arched twice like a caterpillar, yet couldn't manage to turn over.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, his muscles tensed, trying to use brute force to break free from the ropes.
But he found that the ropes didn't budge, and he couldn't even use his spirit power.
"Is there something wrong with these ropes!?" Dai Mubai's face was ashen. He felt that someone was trying to harm him.
The fact that he had fainted earlier was problematic. He was quite good at holding his liquor; it was impossible for him to pass out so quickly.
But he wasn't dead now?
Was it just to make him look foolish?
Who could it be?
Yu Tiankuang?
Xiao Ze?
And who else?
Dai Mubai had offended quite a few people at Thunder Academy during this time. After all, that was his personality; he would look down on anyone he defeated.
So many people disliked him.
These people should all be problematic.
However, Xiao Ze shouldn't be a problem; he wouldn't do something so low-class.
Ning Rongrong: That's right, I did it all. A little woman doesn't need integrity.
Ma Hongjun also tried, but found that he couldn't even summon his Spirit, and immediately panicked: "Boss Dai, were we ambushed?!"
The two struggled to move their bodies, facing each other.
But they found shameful words on each other's foreheads.
"Boss Dai... your forehead."
Dai Mubai swallowed: "There are words on your forehead too."
"..."
"..."
Outside the room, the girls' whispers could be faintly heard.
"These two are playing so intensely."
"Indeed, the ropes are tied with an artistic flair!"
"Oh my, the people from Shrek Academy really know how to play ~"
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun exchanged glances, simultaneously seeing the words 'I want to die' in each other's eyes.
"Boss Dai, what do we do now?" Ma Hongjun was almost in tears. He hadn't expected such a problem to arise when he invited Boss Dai to play.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth: "I don't know! Don't let me find out who did this; I'll kill them."
"Sigh..." Ma Hongjun sighed softly, having no other choice but to continue to pass out. There really was no good solution.
Dai Mubai was also a bit helpless. Why were these people just watching, not coming to help?
Didn't they know he was too embarrassed to ask?
