Chapter 15 – Do You Like Women’s Bedroom? (2/2)

Jing Rong was extremely curious about Ji Yunshu. ‘That scholar is much more amusing than the fights and schemes inside the capital.’

Lang Po approached him and stated, “Prince, it appears that we didn’t find the wrong person. This Teacher Ji is definitely a talent.”

“A talented person is a talented person, but that temper is stubborn.”

“Yes, indeed.”

“Alright, then. Let’s go take a look first.” Jing Rong stopped talking and trailed behind the crowd with Lang Po.

The county magistrate waited until Jing Rong had left before he himself dared to leave.

After Lord Zhou instructed the servants to quickly support Madame Zhou back to her room, he too went to his deceased daughter’s courtyard.

Miss Zhou’s bedroom was very clean. To be precise, it was spotlessly clean to the point that it was simply abnormal.

All the objects in the room were arranged by color. Inside the room, from the curtain to the bed, everything was red while it was blue and yellow outside the room. And each color was arranged into sections. This was clearly a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder!

Ji Yunshu stepped into the room and observed the surroundings. She saw the neat arrangement of the makeup on the dressing table. The color of the cases were nearly identical. In addition, there was not even a speck of dust on the cases or the surface of the table.

Qiaoxin’s eyesight was sharp. She hurriedly started to explain. “Our Miss especially loved cleanliness. As long as it was used once, she would absolutely refuse to reuse the makeup a second time. So, early every morning, we would replace them with new ones.”

Ji Yunshu remained silent and walked further into the room. Then, she caught sight of an unusually exquisite candle holder next to the curtain. A candlestick in a rich and influential family would only have flower engravings. However, the candlestick in front of her was sculpted from crystal. Together with its base, the candlestick formed the shape of a gorgeous helix. It was extremely beautiful to behold.

Ji Yunshu said, “This candle holder is really beautiful. Your young miss seemed to be very fond of it.”

“Yes. Miss particularly loved it.” Qiaoxin nodded. “Not only that, every night before going to sleep, she would want to light it. She said that the scent from the candle helped her sleep.”

“Very nice taste.” The interests of people from rich families were so unlike that of the masses!

Ji Yunshu continued to observe the bedroom. Then, she saw a red whip hanging on the wall next to the entrance.

‘Miss Zhou was practicing a family martial art?’ Doubts arose in her mind. She stretched out her hand and took down the whip. At that instant, she inadvertently glimpsed Qiaoxin out of the corner of her eyes. The sudden panic in Qiaoxin’s eyes didn’t go unnoticed, nor did the instinctive way she covered her wrist and recoiled.

So that’s how it was. Ji Yunshu carefully put back the whip.
