Late at night, Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing lay side by side in bed. It had been six years since the two sisters had shared a bed.
"Zhuqing, do you hate me?" Zhu Zhuyun asked, her expression somewhat dazed.
"I do," Zhu Zhuqing replied, without any pretense.
Hearing her sister's words, Zhu Zhuyun's face remained calm. "Sigh... hate me if you want. We are nothing more than pawns of the Star Luo Imperial Family—pawns meant to serve as combat power and playthings."
╮(￣▽￣")╭
As she spoke, a flash of helplessness flickered in her beautiful brown eyes. Despite this, Zhu Zhuqing didn't believe her; she had suffered too much under her sister's oppression over the years.
"Sister, the Star Luo Imperial Family isn't as harmonious as you think. Internal friction is constant. My isolating and pushing you away all these years wasn't because I wanted to hurt you—it was pressure from Davis."
Zhu Zhuyun stopped, sat up, and looked at her sister. "I don't ask for your forgiveness, but you should know I never wanted to harm you. If I could choose, I'd wish your spirit hadn't awakened as the Hell Civet."
With that, Zhu Zhuyun got up and began changing into some beautiful, revealing clothes from the wardrobe. Her figure was so perfect that the fabric could barely contain her radiance. Given a cat's excellent night vision, Zhu Zhuqing saw everything and couldn't help but turn red-faced.
After picking her best outfit, Zhu Zhuyun walked over to her sister, noticing her shy gaze.
"Sister, are you...?"
Zhu Zhuqing finally spoke. Hearing her sister call her "Sister" again, a warm smile appeared on Zhuyun's face. "Zhuqing, you're still young. There are things you don't understand. We are women; we need a backer. Right now, I am just someone's servant. If I'm not 'sensible,' I could die."
She pinched her sister's cheek. "Besides, I've never seen a young man who can slay a high-level Spirit Emperor with one strike and look so handsome. You're a bit too young, so leave this 'work' to me."
Wrapping herself in a crimson bedsheet, Zhu Zhuyun jumped out the window, leaving a bewildered Zhu Zhuqing behind.
"Sister, you..." "Shh~ don't cause trouble."
That night, Fu Ye was lying in bed, bored, gazing at the bright moon. No one could understand his current mood.
Rustle...
The window vibrated. Fu Ye released his mental power instantly, but when he sensed who it was, he was stunned. A beautiful, seductive girl tip-toed toward him like a cat, draped only in a crimson sheet.
When he saw what she was wearing underneath, Fu Ye felt a heat in his nose, which he quickly suppressed with spirit power.
"Master, am I beautiful?" Zhu Zhuyun approached him like a spicy little wildcat. Seeing his stunned look, she smirked. "Your expression is so calm... could it be I'm not beautiful enough?"
She walked toward him with graceful steps under the dreamlike moonlight. Fu Ye simply gave a mysterious smile. "Woman, do you know you're playing with fire?"
"Hmph. If I can light the fire, I have my own ways to put it out."
12:45 AM[Zhu Zhuyun's current Affection: 36%][Zhu Zhuyun's current Affection: 25%]
4:00 AM[Zhu Zhuyun's current Affection: 50%][Zhu Zhuyun's current Affection: 60%]
8:00 AM[Zhu Zhuyun's current Affection: 100%]
Fu Ye remained steady, but Zhu Zhuyun was in no condition to stand. Her face was flushed deep red. Though she had initiated it, Fu Ye felt the need to care for her—he was a "gentleman," after all.
"So? Do you surrender now?" Fu Ye asked. He knew her combat power was effectively zero, but he respected her stubbornness.
"N-no... if you have the guts, do it aga—"
Fu Ye knew her affection was maxed out, but he decided to keep the Slave Mark; it was quite "interesting." It seemed she enjoyed the feeling too. He ducked back under the covers. "Fine, let's have a little 'review' of the lesson."
By noon, Fu Ye sat comfortably in a luxury carriage. Zhu Zhuyun looked a bit "spaced out" beside him. Zhu Zhuqing sat opposite them, face red, looking down. As a member of the imperial family, she understood exactly what had happened last night. The dark circles under her eyes showed she hadn't slept well.
Fu Ye gave a bitter smile. He had many girls, mostly more beautiful than Zhu Zhuyun, but in terms of figure alone, none surpassed her. Today he had been a bit excessive, but she was just too stubborn.
