"Young Master, should I..." Re Bai stepped forward.
Song San raised his hand to stop Re Baiâs words: "That woman doesnât need anyone elseâs help, and if I act now, itâs actually saving those people."
Re Bai pondered for a moment, it seemed to be true. Madam Ruyi wasnât exactly a kind soul.
Diewu clenched her fist.
Song San turned around into the inn, requested three upper rooms, then went into a room to sleep.
As soon as the door was closed, a shadow swiftly flew out through the back window, running away across the rooftop.
In the next room, Diewu watched the shadow leave outside, paused, then turned and changed into night clothes, covered her face, and followed out.
In another room, Re Bai could only sigh, and finally went out too.
Meanwhile, Yang Ruxin was brought into the County Governorâs Office by a group of Government Officials, hoping to see Dai Zhigao. Since she was considered a female bandit, surely they would interrogate her, right? But instead, they sent her and Chai Qin straight to prison.
"Madam, why did you come along with them?" Chai Qin looked at Yang Ruxin in confusion.
"Theyâre officials. If we donât come, theyâd take action, and innocent people would be implicated," sighed Yang Ruxin.
Chai Qin nodded. Indeed, not to mention anything else, just that inn would suffer. She glanced at Yang Ruxin, admitting that this young madam was truly different from other women.
Comparing to others wasnât necessary, but letâs talk about that cousin miss Dou Xuemei whoâs eager to marry the eldest young master. Had she faced the previous incident where the fur-coated man teased, she wouldnât defend a servant, and if she encountered the current situation, sheâd probably already be screaming in fear and using her to vent.
This is the difference between people.
She further admitted that the eldest young master really had a good eye, judging people accurately.
At this point, footsteps sounded from outside, and the fur-coated man approached, standing outside the door looking at Yang Ruxin, rubbing his hands: "Beauty, how does it feel?"
Yang Ruxin raised her eyes: "How does what feel?"
"Youâre a scourge of the martial world, a generation female bandit, doing all sorts of evil and harming the community. Being caught, youâre supposed to be severely punished," the fur-coated man chuckled, "Now locked in prison, how does it feel?"
"It doesnât feel good, and Iâm not a woman, Iâm innocent, Iâm a girl from a good family..." Yang Ruxin exclaimed in fear.
"Haha, whether youâre from a good family, thatâs up to me," the fur-coated man felt itchy from Yang Ruxinâs meek appearance.
"Then what would it take for you to believe me? Itâs so dirty here, and there are cockroaches and mice," Yang Ruxin looked around, "Itâs terrible."
"To deal with bad people, you canât be soft-hearted, but unless..." The fur-coated man couldnât hide his sleazy face.
Yang Ruxin stared straight at him, eyes shifting: "Unless what?"
Ba Santong, who followed the fur-coated man, had been roaming the martial world for years and felt it was odd before; now it felt even more wrong. As they say, bystanders see clearly, this woman didnât show a hint of fear, and he hurriedly stepped forward to block Yang Ruxinâs gaze: "Third Master, this woman..."
"Move." The fur-coated man had no intention of listening to him, pushing him aside, eagerly searching for Yang Ruxinâs gaze, those eyes like deep pools, making him want to explore, "Unless you accompany me, afterward, Third Master will guarantee you enjoy life."
Ba Santong frowned deeply.
"But someone seems unwilling for you to be kind to me," Yang Ruxin suddenly pointed at Ba Santong.
Ba Santongâs heart sank involuntarily.
"Heâs just a dog I keep," the fur-coated man waved his hand nonchalantly, "Pay him no mind, dear, come on..."
"Then come in," Yang Ruxinâs lips subtly curled up, she took the chance to glance disdainfully at Ba Santong.
Ba Santong quickly lowered his head, but his clenched fist betrayed his inner anger.
"We canât have good things here," the fur-coated man shook his head, "We should find a good place, or else it would be unfair to a beauty like you."
"Alright." Yang Ruxinâs eyes shifted, "But where is the good place?"
"Youâll know soon," the fur-coated man signaled the accompanying Government Officials to open the prison door, then made a gesture at the door, "Please."
Yang Ruxin smiled and walked out, but Chai Qin was stopped behind.
"Doesnât the master want us to serve you together?" Chai Qin said with a hint of disgust.
"Sure." The fur-coated man blinked, quickly nodding, "Then come along, Heihei..."
Yang Ruxin gave Chai Qin a surprised look, this girl had a strong personality, unexpected that she could handle this too? She smiled, "My girl is a first timer, master should be gentle later."
Chai Qin blushed, but she still secretly winked at Yang Ruxin.
"Heihei, no problem," the fur-coated man was even happier, "Master is always gentle with beauties..." he said while trying to hug Chai Qin.
Chai Qin slid away: "Master is too eager, with so many people Iâd be shy."
"Then letâs go inside..."
The previous room was a real cell, but unexpectedly, past this cell and walking further inside revealed a sophisticated room at the end.
"Didnât expect there to be such a cell here?" Yang Ruxin stood at the door, glanced around the tidy and even fragrant room, her lips curved, the bedding on the bed was new.
"Of course, this is specially prepared for the beauty," the fur-coated man couldnât wait to enter.
"Third Master," Ba Santong grabbed the fur-coated manâs arm, "You mustnât, this woman..." he still wanted to earnestly save this patron.
Yang Ruxin raised her eyes towards Ba Santong.
"Third Master, donât forget, this room is scented with Aphrodisiac Incense, but this woman shows no reaction..."
"She might have just arrived," the fur-coated man pushed Ba Santong aside, "Ba Santong, you repeatedly obstruct my good deed, what do you mean? Another objection and Iâll end your life." With them already in his grasp, what can it matter if thereâs no reaction? Soon enough, theyâll all have intense reactions.
"Indeed," Yang Ruxin smiled, "Has this master also taken a liking to us? Or shall..."
"He wouldnât dare!" The fur-coated manâs face darkened.
Ba Santong quickly took two steps back, raising his eyes, only to meet Yang Ruxinâs gaze filled with a smirk, a feeling of unease quickly spread.
"Beauty..." The fur-coated man ignored the rest, rushing towards Yang Ruxin in haste.
