Chapter 80.2 - Catch the Thief; Recover the Booty
Chapter 80b: Catch the Thief; Recover the Booty
Luo Qing Luan calmed down her face and lifted her eyes to look at him. “Since you came to save me, you should know what has transpired. Right now, I’d like to get dressed. Go away.”
Smiling indifferently, not only did Nalan Ye not leave, he instead sat down by her side, sizing everything up. “Mn, taking a bath inside your chambers is actually not a bad idea. After bathing, you could go directly to bed, very convenient. It’s actually much more comfortable than how I have to run about in order to take a bath in my far away pond.”
Having lived for a short period of time at the Prince of Chu’s Mansion, Luo Qing Luan naturally knew of the pond he was talking about.
The entire bathing pond was constructed of the best quality marble, elaborately sculptured. There was warm water year round inside such a big pond, which was drawn from an underground hot spring. The temperature was neither too hot nor too cold, feeling cozy both during the summer and winter. She also didn’t know where Nalan Ye found such a skilled workman, who even drew water from the hot spring into the mouths of two three feet high red-crowned cranes, gurgling out throughout the year. Each time when he bathed, fragrant flower petals were even scattered. A big man like him was so particular, simply thoroughly and repulsively extravagant!
Clearly, Nalan Ye enjoyed it immensely, yet he even insisted on acting sour in her presence. Once she heard him, she knew he was mocking her for having this man in her room. That’s why he said that it was convenient for her to go directly to bed after bathing.
“Nalan Ye, are you quite done playing around? Did you not hear me asking you to leave? I’d like to get dressed.” Luo Qing Luan spoke to him without the slightest pleasantry.
“It’s nothing. You do your thing, while I sit in my place. We won’t disturb each other. Moreover, we’ll be married soon. You’re my future princess. I don’t mind watching you getting dressed. I also won’t reject you due to your figure.” As indifferent as before, Nalan Ye replied while his gaze fell on her body.
Immediately, she threw away the pill in her hand and shrunk back into the water. Luo Qing Luan regretted it intensely. This shameless man. She just knew nothing good was going to come out of his arrival. He actually said those shameless things. Casually scanning around, the bath water’s surface was like a mirror as she splashed it towards him.
Splash splash……
Flowery droplets flew in all directions. Luo Qing Luan even thought that Nalan Ye would more or less dodge. Who knew that he would remain as motionless as a mountain as before. He sat still in his chair like a knight on his mount, while the water splashing over seemed as if it encountered a layer of invisible force field, following which it flowed to the ground. Nalan Ye’s body wasn’t even wet in the slightest.
Luo Qing Luan’s heart skipped a beat. What incredible internal energy. Surprisingly, he was able to reach this stage!
Looking at the water covering the whole floor, Nalan Ye smiled faintly as he remarked, “Was it fun? Just continue if it is. This Prince can see that your figure’s not bad, slim and fair. It can be assumed that the flesh on the rest of your body should also be like this. This Prince will be blessed tonight.” As he spoke, his eyes followed along her arms towards her chest. His gaze appeared to be engrossed and captivated.
During the previous short moment, she’d unexpectedly been seen by him?
Luo Qing Luan suddenly felt that she’d suffered losses and didn’t dare to raise her arm any longer.
Her lady’s chamber became silent. No one spoke. But as they looked at each other, one carried a nonchalant expression, calm and unruffled, while the other’s face was embittered, gnashing her teeth in anger. The pupils of her eyes overflowed with hot anger, wishing that she could burn the other person into ashes.
Right at this time, Dai Yue’s voice sounded from outside, “Master, Side Madam, it’s already so late at night, why are you……”
“Move out of the way, get lost!” Luo Cheng’s angry voice arrived. Immediately, clamorous noises ensued. There clearly wasn’t just one or two people.
“Not good!” Luo Qing Luan blurted out.
Since Wang Xue Ru had sent someone to tarnish her reputation, she would naturally bring Luo Cheng to ‘catch the thief and recover the loot’. Just now, she and Nalan Ye had wasted so much time that they’d been allowed to catch up. Seeing so many people outside about to charge
inside, what’s to be done? She was even still soaking in the water!
Immediately, her complexion changed. Luo Qing Luan swept her eyes across the still unconscious lecherous man by the side of the bathtub, then took another look at Nalan Ye, whose expression remained unchanged as before. She uttered hatefully, “Bastard, why don’t you hurry and get lost! You really want to be seen by everyone, right?”
Based on Nalan Ye’s ability, it was naturally easy for him to leave this place. His light foot skills was as brilliant as treading upon level ground. Even if so many people had surrounded her courtyard outside. If he were to leave, basically no one would be able to discover it. As long as Nalan Ye left and took this unconscious man with him, every crisis would be resolved.
Finally, he couldn’t help but smile. Nalan Ye watched Luo Qing Luan’s obviously flustered appearance and remarked, “What, there are times when even Miss Luo also panics? You’re in fact someone who’s going to become my princess. How can you lose your cool like this?”
This bastard, would it cause him back pain to stop talking?
If he was the one who was bare naked and stuck in the bath while a huge crowd of people was outside wanting to charge their way inside, was it possible that he’d be able to be this
unperturbed? He really wouldn’t care about being seen naked by everyone?
“Master, Side Madam. You really can’t do this, the young lady is inside taking a bath!” Outside the door, Dai Yue’s panicked voice sounded again. It was obvious that she was blocking people from entering. But a little servant girl like her, how could she stop Wang Xue Ru, who was deliberately looking for trouble?
“Master, look at this servant girl. She surprisingly still dares to bar the way. Did she think that this will conceal the fact that her mistress is secretly having illicit relations with some wild man?” Wang Xue Ru’s voice wasn’t quiet at all as she loudly continued, “As long as we bring people and charged inside, I guarantee that we’ll catch both ‘the thief and the goods’. I wouldn’t be surprised that since they heard us now, they’re probably rushing to get dressed in their panic!”
“Shameless!” Luo Cheng scolded in fury.
Just when he was going to push Dai Yue, the latter extended both arms to bar the door while exclaiming, “Master, it’s really My Lady inside. You can’t enter! My lady was clearly by herself, how can it be possible……”
Ziyu stood up. “I personally saw a man sneakily enter inside. After that, he didn’t come back out. Only then did I make a report to the side madam and Master. What, you now even want to help you mistress talk her way out of this?”
She rolled her eyes and coldly smiled as she continued, “Dai Yue, it shouldn’t be that you have already followed your mistress’ bad example from the start? Maybe if we hadn’t come, you might even want to serve that wild man together with your mistress, right?”
Just when Dai Yue was so anxious that she’s about to cry, Luo Cheng almost went insane from hearing those words. He reached out a pulled Dai Yue away and fiercely pushed her to one side. After that, he forcefully kicked open the door. “Repulsive girl, come out here! Where’s that wild boorish man! ?”
