Asha'ruiya's eyes widened. Her pale face blushed alluringly.

Mo Fan was a little surprised by her reaction. Was she really considering his request?

Should he tell her the truth if she really sat on his lap and twerked?

”Brother Mo Fan, should I come back later?” a voice said behind Mo Fan.

Mo Fan's expression shifted right away. He turned around in disbelief. Xinxia had arrived without him knowing. The woman called Fiona was pushing her wheelchair, glaring at him with utter contempt. On the other hand, Xinxia's face was gradually becoming prettier while remaining expressionless.

”Hehe...Sister Xinxia, I told you letting him stay is showing the wolf into the house. Look at how outrageous and bold he is! He's been acting so shamelessly to me, let alone the maids that wouldn't dare resist him. They too have good looks and outstanding physiques,” Asha'ruiya giggled like a little fox when she saw Mo Fan's face freezing.

Asha'ruiya rose to her feet and left after finishing the sentence. Her seductive giggle was still echoing in the room.

Mo Fan immediately felt his balls hurting. He did not expect Xinxia to show up while he was fooling around with Asha'ruiya. What was he supposed to do now!?

”Hehe, Xinxia, I was telling her to treat herself at home,” Mo Fan explained with an awkward smile.

Xinxia was no three-year-old. She was well aware of what Mo Fan meant, especially after she had known him for so long.

”Humph, such a shameless man you are!” Fiona pushed Xinxia to Mo Fan's side with a curse before taking her leave.

Mo Fan did not know how to explain himself. He looked at Xinxia's face. Even though the girl usually wore a gentle and quiet look, Mo Fan knew her cheeks would swell slightly whenever she was mad. It was so adorable when she was still young, Mo Fan would sneakily kiss her on the cheeks.

However, Mo Fan believed he would most likely be rejected if he was to kiss her now. He might have to wait for quite some time before he could touch her again!

”Xinxia, your earrings are so pretty. Look at their shine, it's perfectly setting off the redness on your cheeks and the perfect shape of your face...” Mo Fan believed he had to say something. He quickly came up with the compliments.

”Don't you dare switch the topic!” Xinxia snapped.

”Alright, I'm sorry; I promise you I won't flirt randomly with other girls again,” Mo Fan said in a serious manner.

”So you will still flirt with girls that you think are suitable and impressive as long as you are serious and have made up your mind?” Xinxia persisted.

”Mm? Since when are you so clever and eloquent? How did you know what I'm thinking? Tsk tsk, you've indeed learned a lot since you became a Saintess. You are smart enough to know if people are trying to take advantage of you!” Mo Fan complimented her shamelessly.

”I'm still angry!” Xinxia fumed.

”What is there to be angry about? I'm just fooling around, since I'm too bored. You do know there's no Wi-Fi here. I don't even have friends to bullshit with here. It's normal for men to have lewd thoughts when they are bored. I didn't even know what I was talking about, but I can promise you that I wasn't thinking of doing anything!” Mo Fan swore.

”Does she come here often?” Xinxia asked.

”Who? Asha'ruiya? Yeah, she comes here quite often. Why do I feel like she has too much free time?” Mo Fan said.

”The Parthenon Temple is split into three factions now. One, consisting of mostly aged authorities, is following Izisha. Another faction has sworn loyalty to Asha'ruiya, and the last one is supporting me. The three candidates are on equal footing now. I believe it will stay the same until the next election,” Xinxia said.

”She's not an enemy, but she isn't a friend either; you do have to watch out for her still,” Mo Fan warned.

”Mmm!” Xinxia nodded.

Asha'ruiya was far more capable than Xinxia had expected, having managed to gather a lot of support after what happened to Izisha. Xinxia was still considered a newcomer, so Asha'ruiya ended up gaining a lot of support.

Xinxia initially thought Izisha was her only competitor, yet it suddenly turned into a three-way competition.

That being said, it was not necessarily unfavorable to her. She knew it was impossible for her to challenge Izisha with her current influence and wisdom. Asha'ruiya's intervention had given her some time to catch her breath and prepare herself. She had taken some of the burdens on Xinxia's shoulders away, giving her time to equip herself with knowledge and gather resources and connections.

”How is Senior Sister Leng Qing?” Mo Fan asked.

Lingling was very worried about her sister Leng Qing. The Cold Prince had been arrested. He would be executed after he was pronounced guilty, according to the official procedures.
