Chapter 153 Shizi Demands Interest

Shangguan LingRan coldly commanded his martial nephew Yi Chen, “Take her to Chuyao Guan and Yueniang.”

Zi You was shocked. She asked in disbelief, “You opened Chuyao Guan?”

Shangguan LingRan smiled a smile that could confuse all living beings. His body flashed and he sprawled onto Zi You’s chaise lounge. “To be precise, it’s my grandfather’s. But I’m in charge of it now.”

“Tch!” Zi You scoffed. “This is really a person being in a favorable position gets the advantages first. A lecherous wolf fell into a flock of sheep.”

“Huh?” Shangguan LingRan jumped up. He ran over to Zi You’s side and constantly sniffed. He smiled evilly. “How come I smell something sour? You’er, are you eating vinegar [jealous]?”

“Eat your head!” Zi You was a bit humiliated and angry. She didn’t know why her heart felt stifled when she thought of Shangguan LingRan’s horrible reputation.

At this time, her face was facing Shangguan LingRan. Her red lips were slightly pouting, showing off its pink color and luscious beauty. She looked misty and seductive under the light.

Shangguan LingRan looked at her angry, but vivid and cute expression. She was a completely different person than her usual indifferent self.

He couldn’t help but tease. “Look at you. If you’re jealous, then you’re jealous. Being jealous because of your husband isn’t glorious, but I like it……”

“You’re speaking nonsense!” Why was this man so shameless? His words could really anger people to death!

Zi You angrily reached out to attack Shangguan LingRan.

But her lightning-fast speed wasn’t different from slow motion in Shangguan LingRan’s eyes.

Her jade-like hand was easily caught by Shangguan LingRan before she even touched him.

This grasp was soft and tender, like holding a high-quality ganoderma.

Shangguan LingRan stayed in the brothel Chuyao Guan all day. He had seen countless soft skin. Most hands of beauties were beautiful. But he discovered that no matter how beautiful the hand, there would be some defects more or less. The skin color was dark, the fingernails were too large, some fingers were slightly thicker, some pores were slightly larger……

But the little hands in front of him now were absolutely perfect with no defects, like a pair of carefully carved suet jade. There were no abnormal color and very soft. They weren’t too fat or thin. The fingers were neither too long nor too short. Even the pickiest of people could not pick out the slightest fault.

Those fingernails were round and smooth and revealed a touch of pink. They were more transparent and clear than those small and crisp shells and small flower petals.

He didn’t even think about it. He stuck out his tongue and gently licked Zi You’s palm.

A wet and warm tongue swept across the sensitive palm. Zi You shivered and almost screamed. When the scream was about to leave her mouth, she forcefully swallowed it down.

It was like she had received an electric shock. She took her hand back. She felt a surge of heat begin to spread from her palm down her body and to her limbs and heart. Even her face had a red glow.

Shangguan LingRan seemed to think that this lick wasn’t enough. He quickly grabbed her hand and wanted to do it again. Zi You was angry like burning flames. She forcefully lowered her voice and said, “Shangguan LingRan, you lecher! Are you done?!”

“Not done! I will never be done!” Shangguan LingRan’s eyes narrowed, like a hoodlum and firmly refuted.

Zi You was instantly speechless. The two people’s distance was very close. They could even feel the warmth from their breaths when they spoke. Even words spoke through gritted teeth contained a touch of *** flavor.

She had never experienced something like this, whether it was in her previous life or this life. She had never done such a thing like this with that Zhao HongXiang either.

Zi You’s face burned up. Even her skin hurt. She simply turned around and didn’t argue with this hoodlum Shizi. She gritted her teeth as she said, “Shizi, it’s late now. I have a lot of things to deal with tomorrow. I need to sleep now.”

Zi You usually looked cool and indifferent. She had few mood fluctuations. Now that he saw her face turning red and her panicked eyes, Shangguan LingRan was inexplicably happy.

Her appearance before was really alienating. It made him feel that they were very far apart. Her appearance now was what he wanted to see.

He secretly smiled. It seemed that he was a bit evil. He rather liked Zi You’s panicked expression. She was much cuter this way.

He grinned and stepped back. His smile was lazy and devilishly charming. His long eyelashes blinked. “Today’s interest will be collected up to here. Let’s talk about serious business now.”

If he wasn’t afraid that he would anger Zi You too much, he would be reluctant to leave that intimate feeling.

Her body exuded a girl’s unique and elegant scent. It really made him reluctant to leave her. Other females used powder to smell good, but Zi You always exuded an elegant floral scent. Even in this wintertime, she would make you feel like you were standing in a garden in the morning and smelling the morning dew-drenched flowers that exuded a pure and clean scent. Such a smell was simply a temptation.

Zi You suddenly wanted to slap that charming face of his. Everything this Shizi did was collecting interest for him helping her?

He didn’t help her for free. That was just an appetizer before dinner.

But he finally took a step back. Even her breath seemed to be stifled earlier. “What business?”

“Of course it’s how to make your father and stepmother think that your mother really came to settle accounts with them. Since Wang Yiping said that there are no ghosts in broad daylight, then there will be one at night.” Shangguan LingRan smiled devilishly again.

“That’s not good, right?” Zi You was tempted, but still had concerns. “They know that I know martial arts. They will say that I did it.”

“I have a plan.” Shangguan LingRan smiled evilly. “I will make arrangements. Don’t worry. Go find grandfather and play chess with him.”

“It’s so late!” Zi You looked at the hourglass. It was already after 9 p.m.

“It’s not late.” Shangguan LingRan was used to be overbearing and didn’t let Zi You object. He went over to the shelf full of medicinal bottles. He asked, “Do you still have the knockout drug that I used at Taizi’s? Give me some more. Oh, I wanted to ask. Do you look like your mother? Do you have a portrait of her? Let me take a look. Then bring me a set of her clothes.”

Zi You walked over and pulled out a drawer. She took out a green porcelain bottle and handed it to him. Then she went to a secret compartment. She lifted the board and took out a box. She took out a portrait and slowly unrolled it.

Shangguan LingRan took a look. A beautiful woman in a purple sari was standing on a mountaintop. Her noble temperament, cold eyes, elegant posture, and charming style, along with elegant makeup made her really as beautiful as Chang’e, the lady in the moon.

She looked 60% or 70% similar to Zi You. That glamorous noble, elegant, and refined temperament, especially, was very similar.

The difference was the color of their skin and eyes. The woman in the portrait had honey-colored skin and crystal-clear amethyst eyes.

Zi You’s skin color was white and tender, like ganoderma and white jade. Her eyes were a deep color. Only if you paid attention would you notice that they were deep purple.

When she used her spiritual power, other than Old General Mu, no one else had seen her eyes that were so similar to her mother’s.

That sari was the same as the one that the person in the portrait was wearing. The purple satin was embroidered with snowflakes in silver thread. It was adorned with sparkling stones that looked like diamonds. It was really beautiful!

“Her figure is like frightened wild geese flying and dragons gently swimming. Her radiance is like a chrysanthemum under the autumn sun. Her posture is like a lone tree in the spring breeze. She is a light cloud floating under the moon and returning to the snow. Looking from afar, you can see the sun rising. Closely observing, you can see waves.”

Shangguan LingRan looked at the portrait and then looked at the little woman in front of him. These lines were from “Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River,” which he involuntarily recited.

Zi You thought that he was praising her mother’s appearance. So for the first time ever, she did not scold him. She said in concern, “He went to Fourth Yiniang’s courtyard tonight. That woman’s courtyard is on the south side. Be careful. There might be another guard around him.”

“I understand.” Shangguan LingRan saw that the little yatou was concerned about him and was very happy.

He reached out and scraped Zi You’s nose. He said dotingly, “Get some sleep. Wait for the show tomorrow morning. I’m leaving now.”

Zi You saw his claws reaching over and quickly took a step back, but he was still successful in the end.

She angrily glared at him with puffed-out cheeks. Her angry expression made Shangguan LingRan laugh loudly. Then he quickly disappeared.

After Shangguan LingRan left, Zi You went to grandfather’s Songtao Courtyard.

Shangguan LingRan was right. Grandfather indeed had not gone to sleep yet. The things that had happened during the day were replaying in his mind over and over again. To say that his heart didn’t hurt was a lie.

After all, Mu YingRui was his first child. The hopes that he had for him back then were much more than his second son YingYi.

But now he turned out like this. On one hand, Old General Mu didn’t feel good. On the other hand, he felt guilty and blamed himself.

“It is the father’s responsibility to discipline his son.” His son was like this, so he had to bear a lot of responsibility. If he really kicked him out of the house and removed him from the genealogy records, his son’s career would be ruined. Not only that, but after he passed away, how would he explain to his parents and wife in the underworld?

But look at YingRui now. If Old General Mu continued enabling him, he would treat Zi You even more aggressively. How could Old General Mu face his granddaughter and his loyal daughter-in-law Dier?
