Chapter 3 Shoo, Scum!

• “So it is.” After confirming, Ye Yifan muttered with less conviction in his tone.
• “Boss, let’s go somewhere else to search. We can’t afford to offend people from this clan. Besides, even if you don’t punish her, she will suffer dire consequences regardless for barging inside.”
• “Go elsewhere to look then,” commanded Ye Yifan. His footsteps sounded heavy and hesitant.
• Lin Xiaoxue perked up her ears to listen for any noises outside. It wasn’t until she heard their footsteps sounding farther and farther away that she finally relaxed. She quickly released his lips.
• Just then, she felt something strange. Through her thin layer of pants, there was something hard prodding her.
• Huh?
• She just realized what was going on and wanted to immediately leave the man. The thought of it entering her even by just a bit horrified her. She pressed her hands against the man and quickly stood up.
• Bang!
• Lin Xiaoxue’s hard shove prompted Gu Luochen to rock. He fell backward, causing the back of head to hit the edge of the pool. A large bump formed. The pain caused him to slip in and out of consciousness.
• “Scum!” What an animal! It was merely a simple kiss, yet he had a reaction from it, and.... Lin Xiaoxue tried to pull down her camisole in an attempt to hide her panties, but it was to no avail.
• Angry, she wanted to slap the man but pulled her hand back while in midair.
• What had she to be upset about? She was the one who barged in the first place. She was the one who sought his rescue.
• Not to mention, if she really was to slap him, she would undoubtedly infuriate him. This would then prompt Ye Yifan, who had just left, to return to the hot spring house after hearing the scuffle from within.
• Forget it!
• Lin Xiaoxue distanced herself farther away from the man, who continued to sit by the poolside, and climbed out.
• Other than the struggle that he had put up and his reaction, the man was now in a calm state once more.
• What a strange man.... What’s that smell?
• The thugs’ departure made Lin Xiaoxue calmer and and more clear-headed. It was then that she finally noticed the strange smell in the air. Was it the smell of a special herbal bath?
• She narrowed her eyes and surveyed the pool. Using the dim light, she discovered that the pool was blood-red in color.
• What the hell?!
• What kind of witch’s brew is this?! So terrifying!
• Lin Xiaoxue pursed her lips. Not bothering to meddle in any more affairs, she returned to the screen. She remembered that there were clothes hanging there. They belonged to the man in the hot spring.
• The wedding gown was too eye-catching and annoying to maneuver in. It was impossible to run in the dress unless she wanted everyone’s attention on her.
• Since the man had not spoken a single word, it was obvious that he understood her predicament and had chosen to keep silent.
• In that case, he might as well be kind to her all the way through.
• She then grabbed the man’s clothes and put them on.
• It took a while for the dizzy Gu Luochen to recover. Beyond the steam, he could see the woman wearing his clothes and walking barefoot towards the door. She carefully lifted a corner of the curtains to peek outside. A ray of line shone upon her, highlighting the delicate contours of her side profile. She looked as if she had come out from a painting.
• What a very beautiful woman....
• Ow, it hurts!
• How could he focus on a woman at this time? He was clearly cold-blooded. He never so much as glanced at these women before.
• The woman peeking outside dropped the curtains and hastily retreated.
• The people patrolling outside frightened her.
• It seemed as if he wasn’t the only one who encountered trouble today.
