Chapter 270: It's Up to Aunt-Master Su Ru, How You Perform
This matter was simply too important to Su Ru.
"If these paintings are merely Su Han's fantasies, then that's fine, but I must also remind Senior Sister to be very careful with this disciple."
"After all, he can paint his own Master... such portraits."
"So how could he possibly not have those kinds of thoughts about his Master?"
"And if these paintings are all real... if these paintings weren't painted from fantasy, but were painted based on my Senior Sister!"
"Doesn't that mean..."
Thinking of this, Su Ru felt incredibly absurd.
"My Senior Sister is the same as me, and was already... by her disciple, even completely subservient to Su Han."
"Otherwise, she wouldn't have cooperated like this, allowing her disciple to paint such... absurd portraits."
"And my daughter isn't competing with Lu Xueqi at all!"
"Instead, is she competing with my Senior Sister Shui Yue for the main position?!"
Su Ru's heart was incredibly complex.
Now she desperately wanted to know what the relationship between Su Han and her Senior Sister Shui Yue was!
Across from her.
Su Han looked at the conflicted Su Ru, his eyes playful, as if appreciating an interesting prey.
He didn't answer immediately, just quietly watched Su Ru.
That gaze made Su Ru feel completely uncomfortable.
Although she was wearing a dress now, there was nothing inside the dress, like holding a pipa half-hidden...
Especially now.
Under Su Han's scrutinizing gaze, Su Ru felt even more as if everything about her had been seen through by Su Han, standing before him without any privacy.
Su Ru's face slightly flushed, a sense of humiliation rising in her heart.
After all, before yesterday, Su Han was still her Junior and wouldn't dare to look at her like this.
But in just one night... he had become her man.
However, for the sake of her Senior Sister and daughter, Su Ru still forced herself to hold back from reacting.
"Young Master Su Han, what exactly do you... want me to do?"
Su Ru looked at Su Han across from her and asked again.
A wicked smile slowly curved on Su Han's lips, and then his hand slowly extended, his movement gentle yet irresistible, gently pulling the Su Ru in front of him into his embrace, letting her sit on his lap.
Su Ru's body trembled violently, as if struck by an electric current, instinctively wanting to struggle free from this embrace that made her flustered.
But thinking of her current identity and purpose, the words of resistance that were about to come out of her mouth were fiercely swallowed back, and she could only force herself to endure the unease and awkwardness in her heart.
Seeing this, Su Han smiled, lowered his head slightly, and gently held Su Ru's earlobe, his warm breath lightly spraying on Su Ru's ear like feathers.
He seemed genuinely curious, asking slowly with a hint of nonchalance in his tone, "Demon woman, why are you so eager to know whether these paintings are real or fake?"
Su Ru felt Su Han's intimate, offensive actions, and then looked up at the paintings not far away.
In one of them, her Senior Sister also seemed to be sitting in Su Han's embrace like this.
It's just that in the painting, her Senior Sister had a docile expression and no clothes.
Thinking of this, Su Ru lowered her head slightly.
Looking at her thin dress, if he wanted to, it couldn't hide anything at all...
"It seems I'm not much better off than Senior Sister..."
"And Senior Sister is not yet married, while I am not only married, but my daughter and I are both with him..."
For a moment, Su Ru's cheeks instantly turned crimson, the blush spreading from her cheeks all the way to her earlobes.
She bit her lip hard, her heart filled with struggle.
But what was even more crucial was that even though she didn't want to, Su Ru could only constantly tell herself in her heart, "Be calm, don't be impulsive, don't reveal your identity."
"Otherwise, how can I face Su Han?"
Finally, Su Ru forced herself to resist and stammered in reply, "I... I'm just curious."
Upon hearing this, Su Han seemed extremely dissatisfied with the answer, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently bit her earlobe.
Su Ru felt a current instantly spread throughout her body, her body stiffened involuntarily, and her breathing became rapid, like a startled deer.
Su Han chuckled, his laughter low, as if carrying a power that could bewitch people's hearts.
"Just purely curious?"
"Do you think I'll believe that?"
Su Ru was slightly taken aback, her mind racing, thinking about how to answer reasonably.
"This is a task assigned to me by the Sect. Collecting intelligence is my mission when I come to Qingyun Sect. I cannot fail the Sect's trust."
After a while, Su Ru seemed to have thought of a relatively reasonable answer.
A playful arc curved on Su Han's lips, his eyes full of amusement: "At this point, you're still thinking about collecting intelligence?"
"Aren't you afraid that if I'm unhappy, I'll..."
He deliberately dragged out his tone, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.
Su Ru listened to Su Han's threat, her eyes filled with 'determination'.
"As long as I'm not dead, I will try my best to complete the Sect's mission. This is my mission and my responsibility."
She paused, then looked at Su Han again, her gaze unwavering, saying word by word, "Unless... you kill me!"
Su Han looked at the 'serious' Su Ru, and didn't say anything more, just quietly met her gaze.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, the atmosphere between them tense as a fully drawn bowstring.
After a long while, Su Han seemed to smile helplessly, gently shaking his head: "Alright, you win."
"As expected of the woman I fancy, you're stubborn enough."
Saying that, his fingers gently stroked Su Ru's tender lips, playfully saying, "It's also very simple if you want me to tell you. It just depends on your performance."
"How about you guess what I want you to do first?"
"If you guess right and satisfy me, I will tell you everything!"
Looking at Su Han, Su Ru fell into extreme conflict.
She probably knew what Su Han meant, but this was a great 'humiliation' to her.
She was a person with dignity, how could she easily do such a thing?
But, the future of Senior Sister and daughter...
"What should I do?"
Su Ru kept asking herself in her heart.
Her hands were tightly clenched together, her nails digging deeply into her palms, leaving behind bright red marks.
Su Han didn't say anything more, just quietly watched Su Ru.
"I wonder what Aunt-Master Su Ru will choose?"
"It's truly, something to look forward to!"
After a long while.
"Forget it, anyway, what should and shouldn't be done has already been done, and this is just a Puppet after all."
"For Ling'er..."
Thinking this, Su Ru took a deep breath, stood up from Su Han's embrace, and then her legs went weak, kneeling in front of Su Han.
Su Ru slightly pursed her lips, and had just bent down.
However, suddenly she looked up at Su Han again, her eyes full of seriousness.
"Su Han, you have to promise me!"
"If I... satisfy you, you have to tell me the truth!"
Su Han looked at Su Ru kneeling on the ground, her face seven or eight parts similar to Tian Linger's.
He reached out and stroked her cheek dotingly, gently nodding, "Don't worry."
