59: Talk about things

Late at night, Xingluo City, Wanbao Xuan Merchant Guild.

In the bathroom, Chu Lingxi emerged from the bathtub, a vision of beauty like a lotus rising from the water.

Instantly, steam billowed around her, ethereal and dreamlike, as if veiling her in a thin mist.

Her skin was incredibly fair, so pale it reflected light, and her ink-black hair cascaded wetly over her pristine shoulders. Droplets of water slid down the ends of her hair, falling to the ground and splashing faintly.

As Chu Lingxi was about to dry her hair, she suddenly heard a faint sound from the eaves above.

"Who's there? How dare you peep at this Miss!"

Chu Lingxi's eyes instantly sharpened. With a flick of her slender hand, a long robe flew automatically, wrapping around her graceful figure.

As Chu Lingxi's voice faded, a handsome figure suddenly appeared before her.

Looking at the other party's face, Chu Lingxi couldn't help but blush.

The man before her was as tall and straight as a pine, with sword-like brows and starry eyes. He was undoubtedly the most handsome man Chu Lingxi had ever seen.

"Pah! What am I thinking!"

Chu Lingxi shook her head. This pervert before her had just spied on her. She couldn't just let him off because he was a little handsome, could she?

"Hooligan! What a waste of such a good face! With a face like that, what good girl couldn't you find? Yet you dare to come and peep at this Miss? I think you're tired of living!"

"Do you really think you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome?"

Chu Lingxi was furious, and she charged at the other party with her sword raised.

"Chu Miss, don't be angry. I'm just here to discuss something with you!"

Su Xuan smiled faintly.

Indeed, the pervert Chu Lingxi spoke of was none other than our dashing young master, Su Xuan.

"Discuss something? I think I'd rather cut off your lower half first!"

Chu Lingxi didn't say another word, striking swiftly. If Su Xuan hadn't been exceptionally skilled, she would have succeeded.

"As expected of the destined female lead! She's really not holding back against me, the big villain! I only watched her bathe for a little over an hour, did I? Is there really a need to be so angry?"

Su Xuan shook his head helplessly.

As early as two hours ago, Su Xuan had already infiltrated the Wanbao Xuan Merchant Guild.

Although there were Feng Huang Realm experts stationed here, Su Xuan had the System! He simply spent 1000 Villain Points to activate a small cheat, easily sneaking in.

And so, just as he was about to discuss something with Chu Lingxi, he stumbled upon our Chu Miss bathing.

Therefore, the kind Su Xuan couldn't bear to disturb Chu Lingxi, who was relieving her fatigue with a bath after a long day. That's why he didn't interrupt her!

Moreover, for Chu Lingxi's personal safety, Su Xuan even thoughtfully served as her bodyguard for two hours!

With two hours of unwavering protection, Su Xuan deserved some credit, even if it wasn't a major accomplishment, right?

But what was the result? Just because he was a villain, Chu Lingxi wanted to draw her sword against him!

Excessive! It was truly too much! Su Xuan decided to teach Chu Lingxi a lesson.

"Sit down!"

Chu Lingxi's movements and speed were as slow as a snail in Su Xuan's eyes. Su Xuan merely made a slight move and pinned Chu Lingxi to the ground.

"Let go of me! Let go of me! You pervert!"

Chu Lingxi struggled and screamed.

However, Su Xuan, who had long anticipated this scene, had naturally made thorough preparations. He had already spent 5000 Villain Points here to have the System set up a shielding array.

Now, unless a Cultivator above the Saint Realm acted, or Su Xuan himself lifted it, no one would pay attention to Chu Lingxi even if she screamed until her throat was hoarse.

"Bastard! Let go of me! Let go of me!"

"Scum! Pervert!"

"You're truly a xxxxx"

No matter how Chu Lingxi screamed, Su Xuan remained unmoved. He simply used his cultivation advantage to pin Chu Lingxi to the ground with one hand, letting her curse and swear.

Chu Lingxi didn't understand why no one responded to her shouts for so long.

As she kept shouting, Chu Lingxi seemed to realize something and began to cry in despair.

"Wuwuwuwuwu! Bastard! I never thought you'd actually made such thorough preparations!"

Chu Lingxi cried in despair.

Facing the tearful Chu Lingxi, Su Xuan suddenly felt a mischievous delight. Chu Lingxi, crying, seemed to have a unique charm in Su Xuan's eyes.

However, Su Xuan remained unmoved, still firmly pinning Chu Lingxi to the ground, quietly watching her wail and cry.

Time quickly passed, and half an hour went by. Chu Lingxi cried until her tears dried up and she had no more strength.

"Have you cried enough? Have you made enough fuss? Can you listen to me properly now?"

Seeing Chu Lingxi stop crying, Su Xuan finally spoke.

Chu Lingxi, her eyes swollen from crying, looked at Su Xuan with a wronged expression and nodded helplessly.

Only then did Su Xuan release her, satisfied.

After placing a Seal on Chu Lingxi's spiritual power, Su Xuan finally got to the point.

"Speak! Why are you looking for me?"

Chu Lingxi looked at Su Xuan with teary eyes, pouting, her face full of defiance.

"See? Really, I told you, I have no ill intentions, I just want to discuss something with you. Why can't you just listen to me properly?"

Su Xuan tenderly wiped away Chu Lingxi's tears.

After all, Chu Lingxi was one of the destined female leads in Ning Village's storyline, someone who provided Ning Village with immense help in the early stages!

The process of their acquaintance was also very classic.

The Wanbao Xuan Merchant Guild was the second-largest merchant guild in Qi Country, second only to the Su Family Merchant Guild. Its branches were spread across various surrounding countries, formed by the merger of several prominent families in Qi Country.

And Chu Lingxi was the biological daughter of Chu Long, the current helmsman of the Wanbao Xuan Merchant Guild.

At an auction, Ning Village, through Elder Wang's Alchemy, refined a batch of excellent pills, and his unusual actions successfully attracted Chu Lingxi's attention.

Later, Chu Lingxi learned of Ning Village's identity and subsequently began to support him.

As the destined female lead who provided Ning Village with the most significant help in the early stages, Chu Lingxi played an important role in the plot.

If he could capture or kill her, it would certainly have a weakening effect on Ning Village's rise.

"Discuss something? Who discusses things in a girl's bathroom? And you still say you're not a pervert?"

Chu Lingxi glared at Su Xuan. She never imagined that the incredibly handsome Su Xuan before her would have such a side!

Did his Family know he was like this when he was out?

"Oh, well, now you've seen it, haven't you? I just like discussing things in girls' bathrooms! Is there a problem? Does it matter where we discuss it?"

Su Xuan began to quibble.
