Chapter 376: Confusion
Editor:Â Atlas Studios
Caught off guard, Mu Yangling was pressed under him and almost threw him out. Fortunately, she knew that Qi Haoran was just playing with her, so she only widened her eyes at him.
However, Qi Haoranâs mouth turned dry from Mu Yanglingâs gaze. His round nose, pink lips, and fair face looked a little rosy from his fall. His figure was reflected in her widened eyes. Qi Haoranâs gaze involuntarily landed on her lips and gently planted a kiss before he realized itâŠ
It was even softer than her faceâŠ
Qi Haoranâs limbs were a little weak, and he didnât know what to do next. Mu Yangling was originally holding her breath and waiting for him to continue, but Qi Haoran only pressed his lips against hers but didnât go further nor get up. Mu Yangling let out an exhaleâŠ
His breath landed on Qi Haoranâs neck. Unlike the breeze, it was warm and lingering. Qi Haoran couldnât hold on and fell directly on Mu Yangling, but this made him feel even more thirsty.
Mu Yangling pushed him aside and sat up to glare at him.
Qi Haoran probably knew that his performance was very embarrassing, so he lowered his head in shame, but his face and neck were completely red.
In the end, the couple separated in silence. Only when Qi Haoran brought the horse home did he realize what a stupid thing he had done. He slapped his head in frustration. Why did he let Mu Yangling go just like that? He even brought the horse back.

Although Qi Haoran was vexed, he did not chase after her. He just rode back to Xingzhou Prefecture overnight angrily, scaring Qi Xiuyuan. âWhy did Haoran suddenly go to Xingzhou Prefecture? Did something happen there?â
Rong Xuan thought about it carefully before shaking his head. âNo news.â
The two of them frowned and thought for a while. Rong Xuan guessed, âPerhaps he has something to discuss with Zijin. Didnât Zijin return to Xingzhou Prefecture this morning?â
However, Qi Haoran did not go back to look for Fan Zijin. Instead, he barged into the Wu residence and pulled Wu Jin out.
Wu Jin had just finished dinner and was doing his homework. He was still confused when Qi Haoran dragged him out. âLittle General, Young Master Fan isnât with me.â
âI know.â Qi Haoran held it in for a long time before asking, âHave you visited a brothel?â
Wu Jinâs sleepy eyes immediately lit up. He sized up Qi Haoran excitedly and chuckled. âLittle General, are you thinking about it? Thatâs true. Little General, youâre almost 16 years old. Back then, I was only 12 years old when my primordial yang first leakedâŠâ
Qi Haoran couldnât bear to look at him. âAh Ling said that if oneâs primordial yang leaks too early, not only will his kidneys suffer, but his life will also be shortened. He might not be able to live after 40 years old.â Qi Haoran sized up Wu Jin and finally stared at his crotch. He asked, âYouâre about to reach 20, right? That means you have 20 years left.â
Wu Jin was speechless. If it werenât for the fact that he wasnât skilled in martial arts, he would definitely fight with Qi Haoran. This concerned a manâs dignity. He asked with a dark expression, âSince this isnât about you becoming enlightened, why are you asking about the brothel?â
Qi Haoran hesitated for a moment. He wanted to ask how to kiss a girl, but he felt that it was too embarrassing to ask outright. He thought for a moment and said, âI just want to take a look. Bring me there. I want to know how you guys usually play.â
Wu Jinâs originally dark face instantly turned red again, and his eyes lit up. It turned out that Qi Haoran was not enlightened, but wanted to be enlightened. This was a piece of cake for him.
Wu Jin waved his hand and said, âYouâve come to the right person. Letâs go. Iâll bring you to the best brothel in Xingzhou Prefecture.â
Fei Bai paced around anxiously at the side, but he could not exert any strength.
For some reason, the Fourth Young Master wanted to return to Xingzhou Prefecture as soon as he returned. Heâd thought that he was here to look for Young Master Zijin, but who knew that he was here to look for Wu Jin? It was fine to look for Wu Jin, but how could he follow Wu Jin into the brothel?
One had to know that the Eldest Young Master was very strict about such matters. He was afraid that the Fourth Young Master would be led astray by others outside. Not only the Fourth Young Master, but even Young Master Zijin was forbidden from discussing business in brothels.
After thinking about it, he felt that letting Eldest Young Master stop him now wasnât a good idea. Thus, he could only look for Young Master Zijin. Hence, Fei Bai leaned close to Qi Haoranâs ear and said, âMaster, Iâll go back and get more silver. I donât have much with me.â
He definitely had to bring enough money to a brothel. Qi Haoran was also afraid that it would be embarrassing if he did not have enough money, so he quickly agreed to Fei Baiâs idea to go back and get the money. As if he was afraid that he wouldnât have enough money, he said, âAsk for more. If itâs not enough, go and get it from Zijin.â
Fei Bai was even happier when he heard this. Since he was going to look for Young Master Zijin to get the money, wouldnât it be perfect if he casually mentioned this when Young Master Zijin asked?
Fei Bai ran back eagerly to ask Fan Zijin for money. Unexpectedly, Fan Zijin waved his hand without even looking up and asked Yanmo to retrieve the money for Fei Bai. As long as it didnât exceed 1,000 taels, he didnât have to report it to him.
Yanmo was also used to Qi Haoran taking money from here when he ran out of it. To be honest, both parties could calculate exactly how much Qi Haoran had taken from this place. No one noted how much he had returned either.
Sometimes, when an expensive horse or dagger caught his eye, he would happily pay a few thousand taels of silver for it. If it wasnât enough, he would take it from here. Sometimes, when he earned money outside, he would put some here. For example, when he attacked Changâan County last time, he had received a fair share of the items. There were gold, silver, jewelry, and antique calligraphy and paintings, all of which he brought here. But then he would also take money from here and spend it. Therefore, Fan Zijin and Yanmo were very used to it. The consequence of being used to it was that Fan Zijin didnât even bother asking for the reason these days. Even Yanmo didnât ask. After giving the money to Fei Bai, he wanted to return to Fan Zijinâs side to serve him.
Fei Bai held it in for a long time, but no one asked him why the Fourth Young Master wanted to take so much money.
After circling around twice, he braced himself and followed Yanmo in. He said to Fan Zijin, âYoung Master Zijin, Iâll take the money to the brothel and give it to Master.â
âOkay, go ahead,â Fan Zijin replied casually as he continued to look at the document in his hand. Only then did the word âbrothelâ register in his mind. He looked up at Fei Bai and saw that he was still standing there hesitating. With a darkened expression, he asked, âWhere did you say you were taking the money to?â
Fei Bai heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, âThe brothel. Master has followed Young Master Wu to the brothel to broaden his horizons.â
Fan Zijin picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Fei Bai. The teacup brushed past Fei Baiâs forehead and flew out, smashing against the door. Staring at Fei Bai with a dark expression, he asked, âThen what were you doing just now? Trying to leak your masterâs whereabouts?â
Fei Baiâs face turned pale. With a plop, he knelt on the ground and said weakly, âI donât dare. Itâs just that Eldest Young Master has never allowed Fourth Young Master to go to those placesâŠâ
âThen why didnât you tell me as soon as you came back? Instead, youâre beating around the bush here,â Fan Zijin said darkly. âSure, now all of you like to play tricks.â
Yanmo also knelt on the ground with a thud.
Fan Zijin looked at them coldly and did not ask them to get up. He only sneered and said, âEldest Cousin is magnanimous and Haoran doesnât bother to care about these things. But donât think that you can be lawless because of that. Let me tell you, although Iâm not their biological brother, weâre closer than biological brothers. If I find out that youâre playing tricks again, Iâll skin you alive.â
After saying that, he pushed his chair away and left.
