Mu Yao, who had only lost her virginity a few days prior, slept alone in her own room.
Cheng Shawu, however, was sharing a room with Xu Lei.
At that moment, Xu Lei was bathing in a wooden tub, washing away the dust and grime from their journey.
Her long hair unbound, Cheng Shawu wore a sheer, gauzy robe as she stood behind him. Her exquisitely beautiful face was flushed as she used her fair, delicate hands to scrub his back.
"Little Living Buddha, do you... do you really not have to abstain from the company of women anymore?"
Cheng Shawu asked in a sweet, delicate voice, "How can this be? Before, you said..."
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei grabbed her bonelessly soft hand and said, "We will speak of this later.
As for your father, once the Mu Family's affairs are settled, I will have him use his power and influence to investigate. If your father was wronged, his name will be cleared.
For now, I only ask, Benefactor Shawu, do you still feel as you did then?"
