Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 117

Chapter 117 Biting Filth
When Zhou Jingyan looked at Yun Xiao’s expression, a faint sense of guilt arose in his heart. He was embarrassed by his current reaction. “Young lady, don’t be afraid. Just try to relax yourself.”

Although he was feeling guilty at this moment, when he thought about how he had reacted to this woman, he had already made up his mind that he wanted to keep this woman by his side. Regardless of what was the reason why she had stayed by his side, there was nothing that could stop him, right?

Zhou Jingyan slowly stretched out his legs under the bath soup and slowly searched towards Yun Xiao’s direction. Because he was underwater, it was very difficult for the people above to detect any movement under the water.

The moment Zhou Jingyan’s leg touched his skin, Yun Xiao felt her entire body stiffen. She looked at Zhou Jingyan in disbelief. She did not know that her previous husband would be such a shameless person!

Jiang Qing had already indicated that he was Rong Jin’s fianc é e. He actually dared to make a move against him in front of Rong Jin. What was shameless about it?

Her face stiffened. When she saw Zhou Jingyan’s expression of goodwill, Yun Xiao was angry in her heart, but she was unwilling to give Zhou Jingyan any face. She suddenly stood up from the bathtub and exclaimed, “Ah!”

Rong Jin and Jiang Qing were naturally disturbed by her voice. They looked at Yun Xiao at the same time. A faint peculiarity flashed across Rong Jin’s eyes as he asked worriedly, “What’s wrong with you?”

When Zhou Jingyan heard Yun Xiao’s loud call, all of the heat that had just risen had already retreated. His gaze carried traces of threat, but his expression remained the same. His gentle tone did not make it impossible to tell what he had just done, “What happened to Young Lady?”

On the other hand, Yun Xiao naturally clearly put all of Zhou Jingyan’s reactions into her eyes. She didn’t expect that he didn’t feel the slightest bit embarrassed. Instead, she threatened herself that she was afraid that she would tell her story?

Zhou Jingyan had a good idea, but it all depended on whether he agreed or not.

So what if he was a prince? Yun Xiao would never forget that he was her enemy! Yun Xiao’s eyes moved slightly as she said in fear, “Something in the water bit me.”

When Zhou Jingyan heard this, his face stiffened slightly, and his expression changed from white to green. There were only the two of them in the bathtub. Wasn’t the so-called thing talking about him? He even said that he bit her. Wasn’t this saying that he wanted to indecent assault her? However, when his gaze landed on Yun Xiao’s body, he saw that her clothes were tightly attached to his body. His gaze flickered slightly, and a stream of heat rushed straight towards his lower abdomen.

When Jiang Qing saw this scene, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He tried his best to suppress his laughter. He sized up Yun Xiao and was almost convinced by Yun Xiao’s performance at this moment.

Because Yun Xiao was in the bathtub for a while, the attendant on her body was already completely soaked. She was tightly attached to her body. Her curvaceous figure surprised Jiang Qing slightly. She did not expect such a useless woman to have a good figure.

The most calm person in the room was Rong Jin. Rong Jin only lightly smiled as he looked at the two people in the bathtub. However, the dark currents in the depths of his eyes were turbulent but no one could see them. When he saw the two men in the room looking at Yun Xiao, he felt very unhappy in his heart.

He took a step forward and carried Yun Xiao who had already stood up from the bath tub out. While Yun Xiao was still in a daze, she had already taken off her outer robe and draped it over Yun Xiao’s body.

Yun Xiao also impolitely wrapped her outer robe tightly around her body. Her face was crimson and her eyebrows were shy. Rong Jin and the others were slightly stunned when they saw this.

Yun Xiao naturally noticed the scene of the three people in the room. Her gaze was filled with displeasure, but she did not say a word as she approached Rong Jin a few steps.

When Rong Jin sensed Yun Xiao’s subconscious movements, his dark eyes became a little warmer. After protecting Yun Xiao behind him, he said seriously, “Third Highness, why don’t you come out first and let me check if there is something in this bath soup that can bite people?”

Zhou Jingyan did not expect Rong Jin to say this. His dangerous eyes flashed with a wisp of light. At this moment, a faint look of embarrassment appeared on his face. “What kind of thing can bite people here? Doctor Jin personally put the medicinal ingredients in there, can you not know? Perhaps your alchemy boy was touched by some medicinal ingredient?”

Moreover, he was enjoying the atmosphere now. Soaking in the medicinal bath and looking at Yun Xiao’s slender figure, the heat flow in his lower abdomen increased and his body gradually reacted. At this important moment, how could Zhou Jingyan leave this place in vain?

He couldn’t admit that everything he said was his own doing. Otherwise, wouldn’t he be telling others that he was taking advantage of the time to let Rong Jin’s fianc é e test the medicine to attack his fianc é e? He couldn’t afford to lose face like this.

Rong Jin’s expression was much more faintly awkward. Behind him, Yun Xiao’s gaze flashed and her expression became even more aggrieved. “No, there is something inside that is biting me. Your Highness the Third Prince still got up early from the bathtub. If he were to be bitten somewhere, he would definitely not be able to do so.”

Zhou Jingyan knew that Yun Xiao must have known the situation at that time, but he didn’t expect Yun Xiao to say this. His face was cold and hard, and his words made Zhou Jingyan walk around with a faint cold aura.

“You don’t have to worry. Since Doctor Jin’s fianc é e’s clothes are soaked, let’s go down and change her clothes first.” As for the woman whose eyes flickered, Zhou Jingyan was sure to get her.

Jiang Qing looked coldly at everything in the room. Her gaze was gloomy, and a faint smile flickered in the depths of her eyes. She was also curious about Yun Xiao in her heart.

Rong Jin tightened Yun Xiao’s outer robe once again and cupped his hands towards Zhou Jingyan before wanting to leave.

Under the leadership of Butler Li, Yun Xiao and Rong Jin were taken to Shang Lin Garden, which was a two-way courtyard. Butler Li had the guards take a bath soup for Yun Xiao and appointed a maidservant to serve him.

Yun Xiao replied softly, “Thank you, Steward Li.”

Steward Li walked out of the entrance of Shanglin Garden and coldly instructed the guards, “Guard them properly. If anyone escapes, raise your head and meet them.”

The guard immediately respectfully replied, surrounding Shang Lin Garden with five steps.

In the room, Yun Xiao took off her clothes, After entering the bathtub, Yun Xiao walked all the way from the main courtyard. Even though she was wearing Rong Jin’s outer robe, her body was still frozen stiff. She sat in the bathtub, washing her body with warm water. She sighed comfortably and waited for her body to warm up before letting out a sigh of relief. She said to the maidservant, “Help me bring that skirt over.”

Ever since she found out that Yun Xiao was a woman, that maidservant had brought her a woman’s dress, not a servant’s dress.

The maidservant quickly walked over to Yun Xiao with her dress in hand. “Miss, this servant will serve you. Get up.”

Yun Xiao smiled gently at the maidservant, took the dress and said with a smile, “I’ll do it myself.” After she finished speaking, the moment she caught the clothes, she raised her hand and the maidservant fainted. She looked at Yun Xiao in disbelief, “You …”

However, before she could finish speaking, she poured it backwards. Yun Xiao quickly stood up from the bathtub, wiped off the water stains on her body, took her clothes and changed. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She knew that entering Zhou Jingyan’s mansion this time would not be peaceful, so she had already prepared everything and placed the drug under her fingernails just in case.

Recently, in front of Zhou Jingyan, it was just a scene that she had played, giving Zhou Jingyan the chance to push them out. He was originally a woman, so there was no way he could hide it. Under such circumstances, it was very difficult to refute what was true and what was false because of Zhou Jingyan’s anxiety.

However, what surprised Yun Xiao was that she did not expect Zhou Jingyan to be so shameless! This was truly beyond his expectations!

After Yun Xiao took care of herself, there was a knock on the door. Yun Xiao heard a deep knock on the door and immediately walked over to open the door. She saw Rong Jin and Jiang Qing at the door and invited them in. Yun Xiao closed the door tightly. “We should go.”

Jiang Qing’s gaze once again focused on Dao Yunxiao’s body, and his gaze was filled with scrutiny. “Did you really know that there was a secret passage that allowed you to leave the Third Prince’s Mansion?”

Yun Xiao listened to his faint voice of suspicion. She just turned her head and ignored him. In her previous life, she had lived in this mansion for seven years. How could she not know the way out? Back then, when she knew that Zhou Jingyan was going to seize her first wife, she was very scared. In addition, Zhou Jingyan was going to send troops to Country of Xiyue. In order to make her feel at ease, Zhou Jingyan told her a secret path that could lead to the outside of the mansion.

She walked to the window and snorted coldly, “If you are willing to stay here as a guest, don’t follow us. Could it be that I can harm you?” She opened the window. There was a large tree facing the courtyard wall, and many branches and leaves extended into the courtyard. “Rong Jin, take me over this wall.” It was obviously impossible for her not to alert anyone to climb over this wall. She was fully aware of her shortcomings, so she naturally had to turn to Rong Jin for help.

Rong Jin walked forward and hugged Yun Xiao’s waist. In a few leaps, he disappeared from the window.

When Jiang Qing saw this scene, he shook his head and sighed, “Am I not just a puzzled remark? To provoke the two of them to look at each other in unison, it’s really stingy.” After he finished speaking, he glanced at the maidservant in the room, walked forward and kicked her, submerged her into the bathtub, and then flipped over through the window.

In the courtyard next door, Yun Xiao stood under a large tree with a dull expression. Seeing that Jiang Qing had also followed him, she immediately regained her senses and walked towards the house in the courtyard. In her previous life, the courtyard had been empty all year round, just to conceal the hidden passageway inside.

Jiang Qing and Rong Jin exchanged a glance. They both saw puzzlement in each other’s eyes. Since they were trying to escape, why did they walk into the house? Instead of going out?

Even though the two of them were puzzled, they still followed. When they entered, they saw a dark passageway beside Yun Xiao. The two of them were stunned for a moment at the same time.

Under normal circumstances, only the Patriarch was qualified to know the secret passages in a mansion. He would not tell anyone else because if something happened, these secret passages would be used to save his life.

As for Yun Xiao, she was just the daughter of a merchant, why did she have such great hatred towards Zhou Jingyan? He actually knew about the Third Prince’s mansion’s secret way? What exactly was going on? How many secrets does this woman have?
