After Shen Mochen left, Sitong walked towards the bedroom in the house.
She wondered if Mu Jinnian was not too drunk, so why didn't she hear the villain talking to her?
If she heard that the villain asked her to kiss him, she didn't believe that Mu Jinnian would not help her.
And when she walked into the bedroom and saw Mu Jinnian and Chu Nanfeng taking a bath in the bathtub, she seemed to understand everything.
Good guy, Mu Jinnian said he was straight, why did he suddenly become curvy?
"Um, did I disturb you, my good teammate?"
When Mu Jinnian saw Si Tong coming, he felt as if he had seen a savior, but after listening to Si Tong's words, he knew that she must have thought wrong!
So, he quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong! I didn't even take off my clothes, I'm straight! It was Chu Nanfeng, a drunkard, who dragged me into the bath!"
Sitong smiled, "I didn't say you were crooked. Why are you so anxious to explain?"
Mu Jinnian: "Aren't I afraid that you will overthink it? By the way, why did you come here and get the Demon Suppressing Stone?"
Si Tong nodded and kept silent about how he got the Demon Suppressing Stone.
The conversation changed and he said: "Please settle down Chu Nanfeng quickly. I heard from Shen Mochen that Xie Shuyan knew about the teahouse and got angry. We have to go back to Jiang Mansion as soon as possible."
"My lord, these ancient rumors and gossips spread very quickly!" Mu Jinnian was a little speechless. He didn't do anything to the old storyteller, so it spread quickly.
When he thought of Xie Shuyan's angry look, he curled his lips and said, "Let's go back quickly. When Xie Shuyan gets angry, the whip will hit him easily."
Si Tong: "..."
There's nothing wrong with that. She was whipped when she first came here, and the whip was very strong.
Mu Jinnian fished Chu Nanfeng out of the pool and used magic to dry their clothes. Fortunately, Chu Nanfeng didn't make a fuss this time and fell asleep on the bed.
"Okay, let's go. This guy will send us a message when he wakes up."
"Um."
Si Tong and Mu Jinnian left the guest room on the third floor. Shen Mochen had already paid the bill and was waiting outside the brothel.
When he saw the two of them coming out together, he immediately thought of Mu Jinnian's words about asking Si Tong to kiss him, and his face suddenly turned cold.
But thinking about the news he just heard, he still hid his emotions.
He said seriously: "Two senior brothers, just now I heard passers-by comment that the storyteller is dead."
"What? Dead?!" Si Tong and Mu Jinnian's pupils trembled, showing surprise.
Before the two of them explained the matter to Xie Shuyan, the old storyteller died.
Now, would anyone suspect that the two of them killed the old storyteller?
Suddenly, she felt that this matter was not that simple.
Because everything was too coincidental, and the story told by the old storyteller was too accurate.
But now that the old man is dead, she can't investigate even if she wants to.
——
Jiang Mansion.
On the way back, she heard from people about the teahouse and the rumors that she and Mu Jinnian killed the old storyteller.
Before meeting Xie Shuyan, Tong Mu Jinnian said seriously: "No matter what I say in a while, you can only say yes, do you hear me?"
Mu Jinnian nodded and said: "It's not like we killed the old man. Xie Shuyan wouldn't even believe his own apprentice."
"Besides, the rumors outside are just speculation by some people. They have no evidence of our murder. It is impossible for Xie Shuyan to believe these rumors."
"So, let's just tell the truth later."
Si Tong agreed very much with Mu Jinnian's words. The brothel proprietress could prove their innocence, but...
"In this way, Xie Shuyan will know that we are going to a brothel."
Mu Jinnian: "You know what you know. I just went to a brothel. If he wants to punish me, just punish me."
Si Tong: "Anyway, no matter what I say, don't interrupt. I promise you won't be punished."
Mu Jinnian's eyes lit up. He was actually ready to be beaten. Since Si Tong had the solution, he would naturally listen to her.
"Okay, you can answer it later, I will listen to you and don't talk nonsense."
"Um."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Shen Mochen felt something strange in his heart.
It was not difficult to tell from their conversation that there was an indescribable tacit understanding between them, which actually made him a little jealous.
Because he never used this tone when talking to himself, but instead had a sense of distance.
He also knew clearly that the reason why he agreed to his two conditions was entirely to get the Demon Suppressing Stone.
Now that the Demon Suppressing Stone has been given to him, he is very curious about how long he can continue to play this show of false love.
——
In the yard.
Xie Shuyan sat quietly under the pear tree, which was full of pear blossoms and had a subtle fragrance floating around.
When the wind blew, the white petals fluttered in the air, and some fell on his body. Coupled with his spotless white clothes, he looked even more fairy-like.
But she had no intention of admiring Xie Shuyan's good looks.
Because even if she just glanced at him, she knew that he was really angry and serious.
Analyzing her role as Xie Shuyan's dog-licker, Xie Shuyan would not believe the rumors outside without evidence.
Therefore, the reason for his anger was probably not the death of the storyteller, nor the matter of taking action against a mortal.
Could it be that he even knew that she and Mu Jinnian went to a brothel?
If so, it seems more likely that he would be angry because of the latter.
When Jiang Wanwan saw that the three of them had finally come back, he ran over and said worriedly: "Why did the senior brother and second senior brother come back? Master has been waiting for you all night."
"Master has heard those rumors. Please explain them to Master quickly."
She patted Jiang Wanwan's hand holding her sleeve, then walked straight to Xie Shuyan to salute and say hello.
He said: "I didn't know that Master was waiting for me to come back, so I made Master wait all night. I am guilty, please punish me."
