Shi Sheng moved to a quieter residence. Bu Jingyun seemed to have no qualms about living there. Shi Sheng even suspected that someone had switched Bu Jingyun's core. Otherwise, why would he stop making so much noise?
"Here's the antidote." Shi Sheng handed a pill to Bu Jingyun. "It's for this month, so you better not run away."
Bu Jingyun snorted, took the pill, and swallowed it.
Damn, this damned tsundere.
"How long … are you going to keep me?" Bu Jingyun suddenly asked after swallowing the pill.
Shi Sheng did not raise his head. His voice was soft and gentle. "A lifetime."
A lifetime.
These three words were neither soft nor heavy, but they slammed into Bu Jingyun's heart. It was as if something had suddenly taken root and sprouted.
He pursed his lips, and the tips of his ears turned slightly red. After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a few words. "Shameless."
"How am I shameless again?" Shi Sheng raised his head. He placed both hands on the table and leaned in Bu Jingyun's direction. "I didn't do anything to you. Be reasonable!"
Bu Jingyun seemed to have been startled. His body jerked violently, and then he fell off the stool. His eyes instantly darkened.
He quickly lowered his head, suppressing the pain that was surging through his body. He squeezed out two words through gritted teeth. "Get out."
Shi Sheng was just about to reach out to grab him when he suddenly heard those two words. His hand froze in mid-air, then he withdrew it and left the room without looking back. He even closed the door on his way out.
Bu Jingyun only raised his head slightly when he heard the door close. Those scarlet eyes made one's scalp tingle and break out in cold sweat.
She's gone.
But he was actually a little disappointed.
Bu Jingyun endured wave after wave of pain in his body. Just when he felt that he could not hold on any longer, someone propped him up from behind.
Then, a warm liquid flowed through his mouth and into his esophagus. The liquid was filled with a nauseating taste. His stomach churned, and he wanted to vomit.
But in the next second, a cool liquid was poured into his mouth, bringing with it a hint of sweetness and fragrance.
After Shi Sheng was done, she carried Bu Jingyun up and placed him on the bed. Two disciples of Nine Silences Hall stood behind her, one of them holding a bowl of bright red liquid.
"Bang!" The Protector rushed in from the outside and almost broke the door. "Hall Master!"
"Don't come over." Shi Sheng frowned and scolded him. The Protector stopped abruptly.
He gritted his teeth and glared at the Shi Sheng. "What do you want?" This woman was so difficult to deal with, but the Hallmaster was still …
Shi Sheng covered Bu Jingyun with a blanket and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
The Dharma protector glared at Shi Sheng. "This has nothing to do with Miss Shen."
Shi Sheng raised his head and glanced at Bu Jingyun. His Iron Sword appeared out of thin air and pointed at Bu Jingyun. "Whether he lives or dies is up to you."
Protector: "…"
You want to make a move just because of a disagreement? What is the meaning of this?
In truth, the Enforcer did not believe that Shi Sheng would do anything to Bu Jingyun. After all, she had taken good care of the Hall Master.
However, one could never be too careful.
This woman's temperament was completely unpredictable. Who knew if she would really make a move on the Hall Master in the next second?
In the end, the Protector gave in to Shi Sheng's threat.
"The Hall Master has a curse on him that will act up at random times. When it does, he needs to drink a woman's blood to relieve it."
Drink a woman's blood?
Damn, I'm going to give you a hundred bad reviews for this stupid joke.
"What kind of curse?" The villains were just as pitiful as the protagonists.
The Protector's eyes flashed and his voice turned serious. "I'm not sure either. When I was with the Hall Master … he was already like this. It was the Hall Master who told me that it was a curse. That's why Nine Silences Hall would capture women from time to time. However, it's not as terrible as the rumors say. We only take their blood, not their lives. "
"Is there no other way?" No matter what the curse was, there was always a way to solve it. It was just that the price to pay was different.
The Protector shook his head. "The Hall Master has been looking for a solution all these years, but … he hasn't found anything."
Shi Sheng sat on the edge of the bed. No one knew what she was thinking. The Protector couldn't help but feel uneasy when she didn't speak for a long time. "Miss Shi, the Hall Master can't stand your torment. Please be magnanimous and let him go."
Shi Sheng tilted her head and looked at him. Her calm eyes were like stagnant water that had been tainted with ink. They were dark and sinister. The Protector felt a chill run up from the bottom of his feet to his head.
He had seen extremely cruel people and people who were in pain and despair. However, he had never seen someone like her.
"I don't mean him any harm." Shi Sheng spoke slowly and calmly. "You don't have to worry that I'll hurt him. After all … if I wanted to kill him, I would have done it a long time ago."
The Protector was stunned. Although he felt that this woman was a little arrogant, he knew that she was telling the truth.
If she really wanted to kill the Hall Master, she would have done it a long time ago. She wouldn't have forced them out when the Hall Master's illness acted up.
The Protector opened his mouth and swallowed the words that were about to come out.
Shi Sheng chased the Protector out of the room.
The Protector felt a little sullen. This was his Hall Master, okay? His Hall Master had been taken by this woman and he couldn't even take him back. How frustrating!
Shi Sheng glanced at the person on the bed, then took out a book and started reading out of boredom.
… …
By the time Bu Jingyun woke up, it was already late. The light was dim and there was a rustling sound in his ears. It took him a while to get used to it before he could see clearly.
Shi Sheng was sitting on the edge of the bed, flipping through a book.
She was really flipping through the pages so quickly that she didn't even bother to look.
When she saw that Bu Jingyun had woken up, she immediately threw the book away. "You're acting like a girl. I guess I'll be the only one who wants you from now on."
Bu Jingyun, "…" What kind of joke was that? He was being teased the moment he woke up?
He was so handsome and there were countless people who wanted him. How could no one want him? Hmph!
"Wait here, I'll go get you something to eat." Shi Sheng jumped off the bed and walked outside.
Bu Jingyun glanced at the pages of the book she had tossed aside, and his face immediately turned red. His cheeks were burning hot.
This shameless woman!
Shameless!
As soon as she left, the Protector entered the room. His heart skipped a beat when he saw his Hall Master's flushed face. Was the Hall Master thinking about love?
He carefully observed his Hall Master's expression for a while before asking, "Hall Master … Are we really not going back?"
That woman obviously had bad intentions. Why did the Hall Master still want to stay? If they didn't run now, when would they?!
Bu Jingyun calmly covered the book with the blanket and shook it. He didn't know why, but he felt like he couldn't leave.
Even though … he often had nowhere to vent his anger because of her.
This woman had no sense of shame at all.
"Hall Master …"
"How many times has this happened this month?" Bu Jingyun interrupted the Protector.
The Protector gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "This is the fifth time." In recent years, the Hall Master's outbursts had been getting shorter and shorter.
Bu Jingyun fell silent. The air was filled with a sense of oppression.
