C48 (1/2)
The man did not say anything. His eyes that were exposed were ice-cold, extremely similar to the man who slept with her in the Precious Moon House that day.
Su Li squinted his eyes, he had a feeling that the person who came was the man from that night!
She put the book down and gripped the scalpel.
Very good, she didn't go to find him, he instead came to find her first!
”Was it you that night?”
”Yes sir!” The man's voice was low, as if deliberately concealing his original voice.
”Just who are you?”
”If you can defeat me, I'll tell you then.”
As the man's voice fell, he instantly forced his way towards Su Li.
Su Li glared at the man's actions coldly as killing intent filled her eyes.
The man attacked straight for her life. Su Li clenched his teeth, and at the same time nimbly dodged his attack, the scalpel in his hand slashed towards the side of her waist.
Unexpectedly, he acted as if he had expected her move. He twisted his hand, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into his embrace.
Su Li's wrist throbbed in pain, and the scalpel dropped to the ground with a thump.
She ran into the man's arms and bent her knees to push him toward the weakest part of his body.
The man blocked her with his hands and easily grabbed onto her knees. His gaze turned cold as he exerted strength at the same time. He grabbed her knees and wrists and forcefully lifted her up before tossing her onto the bed.
Bang!
Although Su Li fell onto the bed, he was still confused.
The scar that had just healed on his back was probably split open, giving off waves of piercing pain.
Before she could defend herself, the man had already stepped forward.
After tying her hands together with the bedcurtains, a pair of large palms slid across her body.
Su Li gritted his teeth in anger.
Because her hands were not strong enough, she could only endure the humiliation of being a man while patiently cutting the curtains binding her hands.
She must kill him!
The man searched her entire body, even her hair.
Just as the man was about to stop, Su Li's hands finally regained their freedom.
She stabbed him in the face, hard and accurate.
The man slightly tilted his head back to avoid the blow, but the mask was cut open by the blade.
Seeing that his mask was about to slip, the man casually took the Acupuncture Manipulation and threw it towards the candlestick.
The room was suddenly dark.
At the same time, the man leaped up to the windowsill.
”Are you from the palace?” Su Li also jumped off the bed, staring at the direction the man left in, her voice cold.
The man paused for a moment.
There happened to be a knock on the door
”Fourth Miss, your bath water is ready.”
With a gust of wind, the man disappeared from the wooden window.
Su Li chased after him and looked outside. The man had long since disappeared, and he came and went as he pleased. Even the palace guards of the General's Mansion were not alarmed.
”Wait a moment.” Su Li replied, he gloomily stamped his feet and ignited the candle flame again.
She picked it up, put it in the wooden box, and carried it back to the mechanism.
He then opened the door.
Lv Wu and Lv Liu carried a bucket of hot water and poured it into the bathtub.
Su Li gestured for the two of them to go out, and the two were shocked again.
”Doesn't the Fourth Miss need us to bathe them?”
”Mm, it's getting late, you guys go to bed. After I finish washing up, I'll also go to sleep.”
”But …”
”What is it? ”You want to stay?”
