    Chapter 70: Mu Chuang’s Possessiveness is Overwhelming

    However, the old Taoist was only focused on finding someone and had no mood to argue with Mu Chuang. Taking advantage of the other party’s inattention, he flashed and slipped inside.

    “Impudent!” Mu Chuang quickly followed, his heart tightening. He wasn’t sure if Lin Xi would be willing to help in this situation. Even if he was willing, he didn’t know if he could handle it, fearing that the old Taoist would suddenly wave the Yin-Yang flag around, exposing their identities, and everything would be over.

    “Someone, capture this demonic Taoist for me!” He recklessly used his original identity’s power, without feeling guilty for his forceful occupation, making it even more difficult for others to suspect him. “Trespassing in this young master’s backyard is an unforgivable crime!”

    As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight constables swarmed forward, but it was still a step too late—

    Lin Xi’s door had already been broken open by the old Taoist, revealing a room full of suggestive scenery.

    The beauty had long hair like a waterfall, sitting in a bathtub, facing away from the door, revealing a fair shoulder. The water vapor was misty, like a dream.

    Two “maids” were helping him scrub his back, startled by the sudden intrusion.

    The old Taoist was stunned, unsure whether to continue moving forward with the foot he had stepped in.

    Mu Chuang was completely dumbfounded. He followed Lin Xi’s back all the way to his shoulder, then along his slender neck to that well-shaped face, across his lips and nose, and finally stopped at those fan-like eyelashes…

    Time seemed to stand still. The bathing beauty remained sideways, with lowered eyelashes, looking indifferent.

    The warm candlelight shone on his silhouette, plating him with gold, making him look sacred and inviolable from afar.

    The beauty did not speak, and the maids did not move.

    The old Taoist was contemplating an escape plan…

    With a “whoosh” sound, like his butt was on fire, a dark green figure rushed past Mu Chuang and disappeared into the backyard in the blink of an eye.

    “Chase him!” Reacting, he ordered the constables to bring back the old Taoist.

    The constables moved at his command, but were quickly stopped.

    “Wait,” Mu Chuang raised an arm, making a stopping gesture. “Forget it, let him go.”

    He must have eaten too much to even think about bringing the person back.

    “You can all leave. This is none of your business.” He lowered his arm and then focused all his attention on the beauty in the room, feeling a mysterious force pulling him inside.

    The two “maids” by the bathtub finally moved. “They” stood up with lowered eyes, no longer daring to look at the beauty in the bathtub.

    “Thank you, Young Master Lin, for saving us. If there is anything you need help with in the future, feel free to instruct us, and we will do our best.”

    The voice of Guard A came from the maid’s mouth, and then Guard B also said something similar. Then the two of them came over to plead guilty to Mu Chuang.

    “The situation was urgent, and we offended Young Master Lin. Please punish us.” Having said that, the two knelt at Mu Chuang’s feet, one on the left and one on the right, as if ready to be punished.

    “Get out!” Mu Chuang was in no mood to argue with them about right or wrong, only wanting to be close to the beauty inside. “Get out and change your clothes, and it’s best to peel off your faces too, so people won’t recognize you next time.”

    After he finished speaking, he stepped over the two and walked in, but he did not expect the two guards to take it seriously, and they trembled in fright.

    “Young Master, Young Master, we can guarantee,” the two made an oath together, looking extremely sincere, “that Taoist master and disciple definitely did not see our faces clearly, and we also guarantee that we will definitely not be recognized if he sees us next time. Please believe us and let us keep these faces so we can continue to serve you in the future.”

    Mu Chuang paused, amused by their words. “You can take my casual words seriously? If I told you to eat shit, would you do it?”

    The two guards stopped begging, both stunned, belatedly reacting, and quickly got up to thank him, then scrambled out of the backyard.

    A search with unexpected twists and turns finally came to an end.

    In the bathtub, the beauty sat with his back to Mu Chuang, his dark hair blocking one side of his shoulder, while the other side was exposed. The candlelight cast a warm yellow halo on it, making it look soft and delicate, tempting one to touch it.

    The sound of footsteps behind him grew closer, but the beauty did not turn around. His face seemed indifferent, but his heart was actually panicking.

    To play the part convincingly, he had taken off all his clothes. If someone wanted to do something to him at this moment, he would probably be embarrassed to death.

    The footsteps stopped behind him, followed by the man’s somewhat hurried breathing, accompanied by a “thump, thump” heartbeat, a reaction he had never felt from this man before.

    Lin Xi clenched his five fingers in the water. At this moment, he had no other thought but to pray that the other party would leave quickly.

    However, the other party was doing it on purpose, attracted to him and coming over, how could he leave so easily?

    He stood behind him, unable to make the next move for a long time.

    The room was too quiet. He was afraid that raising his voice would break the atmosphere.

    The person in front of him was too beautiful, so beautiful that he couldn’t believe it was the person he had watched grow up bit by bit.

    There was a time when he had disliked him, both physically and mentally, he had disliked him intensely.

    But at this moment, he once again made him feel like he couldn’t reach him.

    He was wondering, if Lin Xi changed his status, changed his identity, would he still have the qualification to look up to him?

    Suddenly, he began to worry, as if afraid that he would not be able to hold on to him and would be snatched away by someone else if he was not careful.

    “Lin Xi,” Mu Chuang finally spoke, his voice getting closer and closer, as if squatting behind Lin Xi. “Can I sleep here tonight?”

    He was cautious, afraid of angering the beauty in front of him.

    “No.” He was answered with these three clear and cold words.

    The beauty’s expression was indifferent, as if he couldn’t understand his current mood at all, and was even less willing to empathize with him.

    “Why?” Knowing the answer, the person still didn’t give up, and was even very interested in arguing with him. “Is it just because I’m me that you’re rejecting me?”

    “If it was Mu Fang, would you obey?” He suddenly said this, his mouth full of sourness.

    Speaking of this, he finally couldn’t help but want to find out when Lin Xi had transmigrated, and whether he had been slept with by Mu Fang.

    “Lin Xi,” Mu Chuang’s voice was a little urgent, with a strong jealousy, and a bit of caution. “Has he touched you?”

    Only after asking did he realize that his whole heart was tightening, as if he couldn’t accept his beloved things being tainted by others.

    The beauty in front of him stiffened his back. It was originally a question that did not require thinking, but he was hesitating now.

    Should he tell the truth, or should he lie to him?
