Chapter 204 : The Hallmaster Wants to Get Married Off 20 (2/2)

“You’re awake,” a clear voice pulled her back to reality. Her head shot upwards as she was greeted by the sight of a red-clothed man standing, back facing the light, with an unreadable expression on his face.

Shi Sheng’s eyes rolled in their sockets as she completely woke up. She turned to survey her surroundings.

“Where are we?” ‘Wasn’t I getting struck by lightning? How’d I get here?’

Bu Jingyun moved forward, stepping out of the light, though it hardly obscured his enchanting features. He lowered his gaze to look at her. “Nine Silences Hall.”

‘Nine Silences Hall?’

“What did you bring me here for?”

“Keeping you.” ‘Hmph! What, only you can keep me but I can’t keep you?’

‘Keep… keep your grandpa! Am I(bbb) the type of person you can afford to keep? I talk in sums of hundreds of millions, ‘kay?’

“How come you’re wearing red again?” Shi Sheng frowned as she saw his clothes. ‘Too bright. And with those looks, I feel like I’m about to go blind.’

“This is my territory. I decide what I wear.” ‘Hmph! I just like wearing red clothes!’

“So you were this eager to get married to me? We can hold the wedding after I’ve recovered,” Shi Sheng grinned, looking exceptionally attractive.

Bu Jingyun, “…” ‘Shameless!’

He flicked his sleeves and left in a huff.

But if you looked closely, you’d be able to find that the tips of his ears had turned pink, making him look rather adorable.

Shi Sheng’s lips twitched. She attempted to move her arms but found that they were unbearably sore. She was still wearing the enchanted robe that had helped her resist the lightning.

‘Luckily, the spirit energy used is the same, or else I really would’ve been struck to death and gotten a game over.’

Shi Sheng stripped off the robe and examined for injuries. ‘Not too bad. Seems like there aren’t any major problems.’

Only after several days of recuperation did the soreness recede, though she could still feel it.

‘I don’t think I have the strength to tear off Bu Jingyun’s clothes right now…’

Shi Sheng was exercising her limbs when a girl entered, carrying a tray.

The girl laid out the items on the tray onto the table.

“Miss, it’s time to eat.”

This girl was the one who’d been attending to her needs these past few days. Her name was Xiao He, a very cute girl.

“Porridge again?” Shi Sheng’s expression turned grumpy upon noticing the meal on the table.

Xiao He covered her smile with a hand. “Hallmaster ordered us to prepare lighter meals because your body hasn’t fully recovered yet.”

She paused before continuing, “Miss, you are a lucky lady. Our Hallmaster has never been this good to anyone before.”

“Oh yeah?” ‘Good your head!’

“Aren’t there other women by his side?” ‘He’s already a century old. He should’ve already done THAT by now, surely…’

“No.” Xiao He shook her head. “Sentinel has always been the one to take care of the Hallmaster’s daily needs, so we hardly get to see Hallmaster.”

Shi Sheng, “…”

‘Why do I get this feeling of déjà vu?

The Hallmaster and the Sentinel.

That classic ship in yaoi novels.

From how concerned that Sentinel is over Bu Jingyun, that scenario… is quite plausible.’

Shi Sheng couldn’t help but imagine the two of them rolling on the bed.

‘The Sentinel’s the buff one, so he’s got to be the top…

See? Collective opinions form wisdom: That Hallmaster is definitely boy toy material…’

Shi Sheng couldn’t help but get the shivers. ‘I won’t have to break them apart, will I? Noooo I’m(bbb) only interested in breaking the leads’ ship!!!’
