Chapter 316: 316 Just Can’t Stand It (Fifth Watch)

Li Mi could only explain helplessly, "Yes! I admit, I did have a little bit of a crush on Song Shiqin before, but now, I no longer have any feelings towards him at all! Chu Jin is my friend, and I won’t allow anyone..."

Li Mi hadn’t finished her sentence when Zhang Zijun hastily interrupted her, "Miss Li, if I’m not mistaken, the last time at the Wen Family, you were making things difficult for Miss Chu at every turn. Since when did you become good friends with her? Miss Li, I advise you not to go looking for trouble with Miss Chu anymore, and not to spout nonsense here. Otherwise, Brother Song won’t let you off easily."

Zhang Zijun had served in the army for many years and was not one for scheming, so he spoke rather bluntly.

Moreover, he didn’t have a good impression of Li Mi.

How could Li Mi, who was so hostile towards Chu Jin last time, suddenly have such a big change of heart?

There must be some conspiracy behind this.

Daughters of wealthy families like her are always calculating!

Unlike Miss Chu, who is open and upright, transparent and generous in her dealings.

Li Mi took a long breath, struggling to suppress the rage in her heart, "Zhang Zijun, I swear on my integrity, I’m not spouting any nonsense. If you don’t believe me, you can take that imposter to the hospital for identification, and then you’ll know if I’m lying! Besides, do I need to joke about this kind of thing?" After speaking, she took a sip of her coffee.

Zhang Zijun seemed not to have taken her words to heart, taking out two hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and placing them on the table, as he stood up, "Miss Li, I have other matters to attend to and must leave now. Please take to heart what I said today, and don’t provoke Brother Song’s wrath or cause trouble for Miss Chu, otherwise, no one will be able to protect you."

With that, he turned and left, leaving Li Mi with the sight of his tall retreating figure.

Li Mi was nearly infuriated to death by that idiot Zhang Zijun!

No! She must expose the true face of that imposter!

Chu Jin, such a pure and beautiful person, how could she let an imposter sully her!

This was simply intolerable!

In the ancient residence,

Mo Zhixuan just stayed by Chu Jin’s side.

Suddenly, with a ’creak,’ the sound of the heavy wooden door being pushed open was heard.

A woman of gorgeous appearance and delicate features walked in. She was dressed in a simple patterned long dress made of coarse cloth, carrying a wooden tray in her hands, her bright eyes shining, her eyebrows and lips painted like flying swallows and swimming dragons, radiating a pleasant aura. Though dressed in plain and even coarse clothes, she was naturally beautiful, causing one’s breath to catch.

"Mr. Mo," the beauty said as she slowly walked in with the wooden tray, a slight smile on her lips, "I can take care of Miss Chu; you go and rest."

Her voice was also clear and melodious, pleasing to the ear.

Mo Zhixuan slowly lifted his eyes, showing a hint of fatigue, "No need." His voice was still as cold as always and not softened even by the presence of a beautiful woman.

Fortunately, the beauty was already accustomed to his manner and was not angry. She placed the wooden tray on a table to one side, her eyes brimming with smiles, "Master prescribed a medicinal bath for Miss Chu. It requires soaking for three hours. You should take this time to rest. I will accompany Miss Chu to the flower room for her bath, and you can come and watch over her after she is done.

It is still somewhat improper for a man to stay by a woman’s side during her bath.

This woman was the only female disciple of Elder Xu Kong, Dai Yu.

Dai Yu had grown up on the mountain under the guidance of Elder Xu Kong since childhood, and this was her first time seeing someone other than her master and senior brothers.

Perhaps because she was isolated from the world since childhood, Dai Yu possessed an ethereal and pleasant quality that unavoidably drew extra glances.

"Where is the flower room?" Mo Zhixuan looked at Dai Yu for the first time, "I can take her there by myself."

Those exquisite phoenix eyes were deep and profound.

They were unfathomable.

The fine, pursed lips, the noble bridge of the nose, and that cold light flickering within his slightly upturned phoenix eyes composed his exquisitely carved features along with an icy aura that was piercingly intense.

Aristocratic and aloof.

To Dai Yu, this was undoubtedly the most handsome and refined man she had ever seen.

She thought he resembled the high and exalted emperors described in ancient books.

Dai Yu calmly recovered from her brief daze, a blush creeping onto her face as she smiled faintly. "Mr. Mo, Miss Chu is a young lady after all. Let me handle this..."

Mo Zhixuan no longer looked at her but bent down to lift Chu Jin in his arms, his tone cold as he uttered four words, "Lead the way ahead."

His pride was habitual; even now, facing a delicate beauty, he was utterly unyielding.

Dai Yu was startled for a moment before picking up the tray again and stepping forward, "Oh, okay. Mr. Mo, please follow me this way."

The flower room was not far, it was a small wooden house with a thatched roof, built in a medic herb garden.

In the garden, the peonies were in full bloom, red and white against each other, particularly eye-catching.

There were also various unknown medicinal herbs, creating a pleasing scene, undoubtedly a haven from the outside world.

A breeze carried the scent of herbs, which was not at all pungent.

Following the winding stone path, they arrived at the flower room.

Dai Yu led the way, pushing open the door only to be met with a strong, pungent odor of medicine.

The flower room was small, and the interior was very simple, mostly furnished with wooden and bamboo items.

Dai Yu lifted the white gauze curtain, pointing to the wooden bed hidden behind it, "Mr. Mo, place Miss Chu on the bed, and I will take care of the rest."
