"Are you sure?" Song Qing frowned. To be honest, he couldn't figure out what Zhao Min was thinking.
"Are you coming over or not?" Zhao Min's angry look melted Song Qing's heart. He hurriedly moved closer.
"Squat down." Seeing Song Qing standing next to the bathtub and looking down at her, Zhao Min's face turned red. She hurriedly pressed her body against the wall of the bathtub. Fortunately, there was a thick layer of flower petals on the water surface. Otherwise, he would have seen everything.
"You're not really going to kiss me, are you?" Song Qing stared at her with wide eyes and a look of disbelief.
"What are you talking about? Hurry up and squat down." Zhao Min said angrily.
"Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and squat down."
Although Song Qing felt that it was a little strange, he still squatted down. After squatting down, he was about to turn around and say something to Zhao Min. Who knew that Zhao Min's head would move closer and her soft lips would tightly press against his.
Song Qing was startled. Zhao Min, however, shrank back as if she had been electrocuted. She was embarrassed and angry, "Why did you suddenly turn around!" Originally, she only wanted to kiss Song Qing's cheek. Who knew that he would suddenly turn around and cause the situation of their lips touching.
Touching his lips, there seemed to be a lingering fragrance of a beautiful woman on it. A smile appeared on Song Qing's face, "You didn't say that I couldn't turn around."
"Scoundrel!" Zhao Min spat and turned her head to the side, "Okay, now that we've kissed, it's time for you to keep your promise and let me go."
"So the princess has long had a special liking for me." Song Qing said with a smile.
Zhao Min hurriedly said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. I'm just trying to maximize the benefits of the negotiation. Compared to the twenty taels of gold and a hundred taels of silver that you're asking for, a mere kiss is nothing."
Song Qing calmly looked at her and gently said, "But in my heart, twenty taels of gold or a hundred taels of silver are far less precious than a kiss from you."
Zhao Min was stunned. Although she knew that the other party was probably coaxing her, she couldn't help but feel touched when she heard his sincere words. However, she was worried that Song Qing would see through her, so she hurriedly curled her lips. "There are so many girls around you. I'm afraid that they have fallen for your sweet words. Unfortunately, I'm not that kind of silly girl."
Song Qing smiled and didn't explain further. He said directly, "Princess, it doesn't matter if I'm being insincere or insincere. Anyway, I'm a man of my word. You can leave later."
He did not really abandon the Golden Snake Camp because of women, but he had a deeper consideration. Even though Golden Serpent Camp had many things to do and was short of funds, he had never thought of taking money from Mongolia. After all, he was fighting under the banner of "driving out the Tartars and restoring China". Once he had financial dealings with Mongolia, it would be a bad debt that could not be cleared in the future. It would be easy for the enemy to use this as an excuse to shake the foundation of his righteousness.
Therefore, he had asked for an exorbitant price just to tease Zhao Min and see how she would respond. However, he didn't expect that she would kiss him.
Zhao Min hid in the water and didn't reply. No one knew what she was thinking. Soon, the atmosphere in the room became a little ambiguous.
"Did I miss something?" Ge Bi walked in with a pile of clean clothes. She was keenly aware that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange.
"No … nothing!" Zhao Min said in a somewhat flustered manner. "Sorry to trouble you, sister."
Ge Bi put the clothes next to the bathtub and smiled gently. "I saw that your body shape is similar to mine, so I found some of my clothes. I hope you don't mind."
"Sister, what are you talking about …" Zhao Min thanked Ge Bi again. She saw that Song Qing was still standing in the same place from the corner of her eye. She immediately said angrily, "I'm going to put on my clothes. Are you going to keep watching me?"
Song Qing shrugged. "You can wear it. I don't mind." Noticing the two women's angry eyes, he hurriedly added, "I'm just kidding … I'm going out first."
After waiting outside the door for a while, the door was opened from the inside. Song Qing looked back and saw the two women standing together. It really made people not know who to look at.
"Song, I'm leaving." Perhaps it was because she had just taken a bath, but Zhao Min's face was tinged with a faint blush, which made her look even more delicate and charming.
"You're leaving in such a hurry. I wanted to keep you as a guest for a while." Song Qing looked reluctant.
"Bah, I don't want to stay here any longer." Thinking of the dark days that she had been living, Zhao Min could not help but feel a lingering fear. "I'm leaving now."
After saying that, she patted the hem of her dress and walked out. After a few steps, seeing that Song Qing did not make things difficult for her, she stopped and said, "Since you keep your word, I can't be ungrateful. From today on, I will withdraw my forces from the Jin Kingdom, and you can do whatever you want here."
She had thought it through thoroughly. Since Song Qing's purpose was to stir up trouble in the Jin Kingdom, there was no point for her to stay here. Moreover, there were urgent matters to deal with in the Ruyang Mansion. It was impossible for her to stay here for a long time, so she might as well do Song Qing a favor.
"Where are you going?" Zhao Min appeared and disappeared mysteriously all day long, which made Song Qing very curious about her daily whereabouts.
"Who asked me to be so unlucky? I was poisoned by the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill. You won't help me find the antidote, so I have to look for it myself." Zhao Min's face was full of hidden bitterness. "According to the information I received this time, there are three places where Murong Jingyue might be. Daxing Mansion is one of them. However, I didn't find any clues while I was in the Jin Kingdom, so I have to look for the other two places."
"Where are the other two places?" Song Qing asked hurriedly. Although there was still some time before the Duanyang Festival next year, as long as the poison in Zhao Min's body was not cured, it would be like the sword of Damocles, making people unable to eat or sleep in peace.
Zhao Min pursed her lips and shook her head. "I can't tell you for now. Otherwise, there won't be a surprise the next time we meet."
"Huh?" Song Qing was speechless.
Zhao Min waved at him and gradually disappeared into the distance. Her bell-like laughter could be faintly heard in the air. "While you are in the Jin Kingdom, help me keep an eye on Murong Jingyue's whereabouts. I believe you can't bear to see me die, right? Hahaha ~ "
Ge Bi could not help but sigh. "It seems that the relationship between you and Miss Zhao is not ordinary."
"You can say that we are both friends and enemies." Song Qing smiled and wrapped his arms around the slender waist of the beauty beside him. He blew into her ear and said, "But my relationship with her is not as' intimate 'as my relationship with you. You know what I mean …"
Ge Bi's face immediately blushed and she cupped her fists.
