465: Arrested on the spot

“I don’t just know about your collaboration with Chen Ying; I also know perfectly well who the other two masterminds behind this are!”

No sooner had he spoken than Chen Xuan snapped his fingers. In an instant, two graceful figures, like ghosts, abruptly appeared within Yun Xuan’s Immortal Cave.

Upon closer inspection, they were none other than Rou Wu and Chu Yinyao.

Rou Wu’s face was full of astonishment at this moment, her beautiful eyes wide with surprise: “Huh?! What’s going on? Wasn’t I just happily playing mahjong with a group of good sisters? How did I end up here in the blink of an eye?”

Chu Yinyao, on the other hand, appeared much calmer. She first smiled sweetly at Chen Xuan, then turned her gaze to Yun Xuan, saying with a hint of apology: “My apologies, Sister Yun Xuan, it seems we’ve accidentally disturbed you. But fortunately, no harm was done, so we’ll take our leave first.”

“Yes, yes, yes! My dear Husband, I’m about to win this hand of cards! If I delay any longer, I’ll lose terribly! So I won’t keep you company, goodbye, goodbye!”

With that, Rou Wu’s figure flickered, and she displayed an exquisite movement technique, attempting to quickly escape the scene.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Her two adorable rabbit ears had already been firmly grasped by the quick-witted Chen Xuan.

“My Rou Wu wouldn’t call me ‘dear Husband’ like that. You, you must have done something bad behind my back.” Chen Xuan’s lips curved slightly, revealing a playful smile.

Upon hearing this, Rou Wu’s face immediately flushed with embarrassment, and she stammered in explanation:

“I… I was just anxious, thinking that the sisters over there might also be burning with impatience, which is why I called you that in a moment of urgency!”

With that, Rou Wu lowered her head, not daring to meet Chen Xuan’s gaze. She herself didn’t believe her own words.

“Even so, you’d better stay here with me. We need to settle this score between us properly, every single detail, leaving nothing out!”

Before he finished speaking, Chen Xuan’s eyes shifted, looking at a figure not far away who was attempting to sneak away: “And you, Little Chu!”

Chen Xuan waved his arm, and Chu Yinyao, who had been furtively trying to slip away amidst the chaos, instantly became motionless as if under a freezing spell.

The next moment, she felt a powerful force pull her abruptly to Chen Xuan’s side. Immediately after, Chen Xuan’s other hand smoothly embraced her, pulling her slender, soft body tightly into his arms.

“Where are you planning to go? Hmm?” Chen Xuan lowered his head and whispered into Chu Yinyao’s ear, his warm breath caressing her temple, causing her to blush.

“What, what do you mean where am I going? It was clearly you, this guy, who inexplicably teleported me here! I was just trying to go back to my own palace!

Besides, I’m not some ‘Little Chu’; you should call me ‘Elder Sister’! Did you hear me?!”

Chu Yinyao had a guilty conscience but couldn’t say it directly, so she pretended to be annoyed and shouted loudly.

“Alright, alright, I know, Elder Sister! Is that better?” Chen Xuan quickly responded.

“Hmph, that… that’s still passable!” Chu Yinyao snorted softly, tilting her head slightly, a hint of imperceptible smugness on her face.

However, just then, Chen Xuan suddenly changed the subject: “But, my dear Elder Sister, if you accidentally make a mistake, how should I deal with it?” He looked at Chu Yinyao with a half-smile, his eyes filled with a hint of affection.

Chu Yinyao was flustered by his question. She bit her lip and said bravely, “Chen Xuan, I’m your good Elder Sister, what could you possibly do to me?”

“That’s not necessarily true, Elder Sister. If you truly made a mistake this time, you don’t need to apologize to me; you just need to sincerely apologize to those two.” As he spoke, Chen Xuan pointed to Qian Muli and Yun Xuan, who were standing by the side.

Chu Yinyao followed his gaze and saw Qian Muli and Yun Xuan looking at her with strange expressions, their gazes making her feel a pang of guilt.

But since things had come to this, she could only pretend to be calm and nod, answering readily, “No problem! It’s just an apology, what’s so difficult about that!” After speaking, she took a deep breath and walked towards Qian Muli and Yun Xuan.

The relationship between the sisters had always been very close and united, especially when facing certain situations.

So Chu Yinyao didn’t find the two girls difficult to talk to; as long as she didn’t have to confront Chen Xuan alone, it was fine.

Although, with her own ability, she wasn’t completely unable to deal with Chen Xuan, the main reason was that Chen Xuan, he always did some strange, even somewhat humiliating things.

These actions often made her feel incredibly shy, making it difficult to resist.

“I’ll go talk to the two sisters now; you just need to give me a little time!” With that, she quickly reached out and pulled the two girls, walking together towards the inner room.

Not long after, the three sisters emerged from the inner room, each smiling and walking lightly.

As for what they discussed in the inner room, outsiders had no way of knowing and could only speculate.

When they reappeared before everyone, Chu Yinyao asked, “Husband, do you have any specific plans or arrangements next?”

Her tone was as polite as could be, which made Chen Xuan frown slightly and respond with a hint of vigilance: “What’s wrong? Are you plotting something else in secret?”

Seeing this, Chu Yinyao immediately felt a surge of dissatisfaction and retorted coquettishly:

“What plots? We’re just simply concerned about you. Why do you have to guard against me as if I’m a thief?”

After speaking, she deliberately extended her long, slender, beautiful leg and gently kicked Chen Xuan.

Facing Chu Yinyao’s questioning, Chen Xuan, however, replied with a serious and earnest expression: “Oh, don’t say that! You are no longer the familiar person you once were. I really feel quite unfamiliar with this brand new persona of yours!”

“I don’t care! I originally harbored a desire to become a virtuous wife and loving mother, but all of that was ruined by this hateful rabbit!”

Chu Yinyao said angrily, then quickly walked in front of Rou Wu, raising her hand without hesitation, and with a crisp “slap,” landed a solid hit on Rou Wu’s ( ).
