The next morning.
Qin Yuan woke up groggily, only to find herself in an unfamiliar room.
She looked around in confusion, realizing it wasn't her home, and was instantly terrified: "Where is this?"
"This is my home!"
Bai Zihe happened to push the door open, looking at the girl speechlessly: "Didn't you say you were immune to alcohol?"
Qin Yuan faltered.
But she wouldn't back down.
She immediately sat up and retorted: "That was because I wasn't in good condition. Before, I always..."
She stopped mid-sentence as the blanket on her chest slipped down, leaving her completely exposed!
"Ah—"
Qin Yuan screamed and, with lightning speed, tucked herself entirely under the blanket: "You... what did you do to me?"
"What could I have done to you?"
Bai Zihe said indifferently: "Just carried you back from the bar."
Qin Yuan pressed further: "Then why am I not wearing any clothes?"
"It must have been you!"
"You must have seen me drunk last night and then got lustful..."
"Hey, don't go!"
"You haven't taken responsibility for me yet!"
Hearing half of it, Bai Zihe found her too noisy and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Qin Yuan shouted at Bai Zihe's retreating back: "Hey! You looked at me, and now you want to shirk responsibility?"
"Not a chance!"
She immediately got up and dressed as quickly as possible.
Downstairs.
Bai Zhanhong and Bai Ruoyi had already gone out.
After the incident with the poison master last time, Zhan Tianlong had elevated their security by another level, and today he was personally accompanying them.
"Great Demon Lord, good morning!"
Liu Qianxun came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles.
At first.
Bai Zihe had been resistant to the nickname "Great Demon Lord," but seeing that Liu Qianxun kept his younger sister company happily, he didn't bother with her.
Bai Zihe looked at the noodles in Liu Qianxun's hand: "You can cook?"
Liu Qianxun shook her head: "I bought them from outside."
As expected.
Bai Zihe shrugged.
The two sat down and enjoyed breakfast together.
Clad in clothes, Qin Yuan clattered down the stairs, acting as if it were her right: "You saw me naked last night, so you have to take responsibility for me!"
"Pfft—"
Liu Qianxun couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of noodles.
Bai Zihe shot her a cold glance.
Liu Qianxun stuck out her tongue, lowered her head to clear the noodles from the table, then cleared her throat and said to Qin Yuan: "Um... Miss, if you're looking for someone to take responsibility, I'm completely available!"
You're a girl...
What kind of responsibility are you talking about!
Qin Yuan rolled her eyes.
Her sexual orientation was straight, and no one was going to bend it!
Besides, a man as stylish and capable as Bai Zihe...
Even if she were gay, she'd be straight for him!
"What's wrong, Miss..."
Liu Qianxun raised her head and chest, her curves prominent: "Don't you like me? I have plenty to offer too, I'm not worse than you—"
However.
Seeing Qin Yuan's growing impatience, Liu Qianxun stopped teasing her and said directly: "Alright, I'll tell you the truth."
"Actually, it was me who undressed you last night!"
"I saw you naked, so if you want someone to take responsibility, you can find me!"
A fleeting hint of disappointment flashed in Qin Yuan's eyes.
She had thought it was Bai Zihe who undressed her!
Watching Bai Zihe calmly eat his noodles, Qin Yuan found him more and more handsome, more and more charismatic!
Without hesitation, she pointed at Bai Zihe and said in a low voice: "I want him to take responsibility!"
After saying that.
Qin Yuan's face blushed, and she immediately lowered her head and ran out.
She was running so fast that she almost collided with Xue Er, who was just entering the house.
Fortunately, Xue Er had quick reflexes, and they didn't hit each other.
After Xue Er entered, she asked curiously: "Who is she, and what happened?"
Xue Er hadn't been present when Bai Zihe returned last night.
So she was unaware of Qin Yuan's situation.
Liu Qianxun glanced sideways at Bai Zihe, and seeing he wasn't looking at her, she immediately teased: "Do I even need to say it..."
"Of course, the Great Demon Lord is getting married!"
Xue Er was stunned.
Liu Qianxun stifled a laugh and looked at Bai Zihe's reaction. She saw his cold eyes fixed on her.
This startled Liu Qianxun, who quickly lowered her head, picked up a chopstick of noodles, and said: "Ah, the moon is so beautiful today!"
"Today's noodles are so..."
"Hiss—it's so hot!"
"Young Master!"
Xue Er came back to her senses and called out to Bai Zihe.
Bai Zihe understood what she meant and said: "Little Poison is one of us. Just say whatever you need to say directly."
"According to intelligence from Xuan Tian Pavilion."
"A force of ten thousand men is stationed on the border of Suzhou and Hangzhou!"
"Led by the Military Governor of Jiangdong Province, Zhao Qingtian, they have already entered Suzhou and Hangzhou city!"
