157. Classic Whitewashing (2/2)

A desolate mountain, above a cave.

Chen An arrived at high speed via Sword Flight, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom, and landed elegantly as he reached the cave entrance.

He leaped lightly from his sword, moved his mind to store the Flying Sword into his Storage Ring, and walked slowly into the cave.

Hearing the footsteps coming from the entrance, Jiuji inside knew that Chen An had arrived.

Her originally restless state of mind could not help but calm down a little.

It was truly too lonely to stay in the cave all by herself.

Even if the person coming this time was an enemy, to her, it was still better than staying in the cave alone and staring blankly.

"Why have you come again?"

Jiuji asked with some confusion.

Chen An did not rush to respond; he moved his mind to take out the three improper storybooks about fox demons from his Storage Ring and tossed them in front of Jiuji with a few "clatter" sounds.

Afterward, looking down from a height at Jiuji who was sitting on the ground, he said in a flat voice:

"I bought these books specifically for you to pass the time; from now on, every time I come, I will bring you things to pass the time."

"If there is anything you want, you can also tell me in advance."

"Whatever I can bring you, I will try my best to bring."

The reason he said these things to Jiuji was that he held the goal of wanting to woo her, having the idea of taking her as a concubine.

After all, the Jiuji before him, whether in terms of appearance or Bloodline, was very suitable to be taken home as a concubine.

The most important point was that as long as he could take Jiuji home as a concubine, he could directly eliminate one difficult-to-handle enemy and save himself from many troubles that needed to be dealt with.

Jiuji did not respond to these words of his; her gaze fell entirely on the three storybooks in front of her.

"Temple Fox", "Demon Fox Goes to Hell", "The Fox Immortal's Cultivation".

Demon Fox Goes to Hell?

Jiuji saw the three characters "Goes to Hell" and felt some discomfort in her heart, wondering if the content of this book was all about persecuting the Fox Demon Clan?

In contrast, the latter book, "The Fox Immortal's Cultivation", was more to her taste; she liked the two characters "Fox Immortal".

"What kind of books are these?"

Jiuji slightly lifted her fox-like face, which was both pure and seductive, and asked in a voice that was naturally endowed with a delicate and tender quality.

Chen An feigned ignorance: "I'm not sure. I saw the titles were about fox demons, so I bought them and brought them to you."

After hearing this sentence from Chen An, Jiuji did not know why she felt a warmth in her heart, suddenly feeling that this despicable and shameless villain Chen An did not seem so bad after all.

It was a bit like the feeling of "someone who has done good deeds their whole life becomes a bad person because of one act" and "someone who has done bad deeds their whole life becomes a good person because of one act."

And Chen An was that bad person who had done bad deeds to her his whole life, then suddenly did one good deed for her, and was thus considered a good person by her.

This was a classic technique often used in the film and television works of her past life to whitewash villains.

And at this moment, Chen An was using this classic whitewashing technique to trace-lessly whitewash his previous violent behavior toward Jiuji.

Preparing for taking her as a concubine later.

Conversely, Jiuji did not realize that she had already been targeted by Chen An, who was her enemy.

She recalled the words Chen An had just said to her, and after hesitating for a moment, she tried to make a request:

"You just said that if I want anything, I can tell you."

"Then, I want a bed and some Cleaning Talismans, is that okay?"

While saying these two sentences, she felt a bit apprehensive in her heart, unsure if Chen An would agree.

Chen An did not even think about it and said: "Yes."

After speaking, he moved his mind, took out a stack of Cleaning Talismans, and handed them to Jiuji, saying: "There are thirty Cleaning Talismans here in total; when you finish using them, you can ask me for more. As for the bed, I will buy it and have it sent over later."

"Mm."

Jiuji responded softly, reached out to take the Cleaning Talismans Chen An handed over, and felt a bit incredulous in her heart.

She did not expect that Chen An would actually agree to her request.

Seeing that the time was about right and it was time to go home, Chen An turned around and walked out of the cave to avoid his wives and concubines at home worrying.

"That... when will you come next time?"

"In about half an hour."

"In half an hour?"

Jiuji was puzzled and wanted to ask further.

Unfortunately, Chen An had already walked out of the cave by this time.

After leaving the cave.

Chen An did not rush to use Sword Flight to go home.

Instead, he flew toward the nearest Market, intending to buy a bed for Jiuji right now.

This was just a trivial matter.

But Chen An felt that this would be of great help in his wooing of Jiuji.

About a quarter of an hour later.

The bed was bought.

It was brought back into the cave.

Chen An thoughtfully placed the bed in a spot further away from the Night Pearl.

Afterward, his gaze fell on the lightning-struck wood shackles shackled to Jiuji's wrists.

That was a very wide and heavy wooden board, which greatly restricted the freedom of her hands when worn on the wrists, making it difficult for one to even lie down properly.

Chen An thought for a moment, then still removed these lightning-struck wood shackles for Jiuji and replaced them with a pair of lighter Sea Tower Stone Handcuffs.

Jiuji felt somewhat surprised, and after a moment of hesitation, she spoke two words: "Thank you."

Hearing these two words, Chen An knew that the first step of his conquest plan had been successfully taken, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart.

Seeing that he had done everything he needed to do, he didn't stay in the cave much longer and soon flew home on his sword.

Qianhua Forest.

Inside the tunnel.

When Chen An returned home, he happened to see Wen Zhiyun walking out of the bathroom.

At this moment, Wen Zhiyun's soft hair was slightly damp, and a faint floral fragrance emanated from her body; her face, which was clearly devoid of makeup, looked inexplicably luscious and dripping with charm.

The more Chen An looked, the more he felt moved; he slowly stepped forward to wrap his arms around her slender waist, inhaled the faint floral scent coming from her, and asked softly, "Don't you have a Cleaning Talisman? Why go through the trouble of taking a bath?"

Wen Zhiyun rolled her eyes at him and said with a speechless, irritable look, "Please, taking a bath isn't just about cleaning the body; it's a way to relax the body, okay?"

"Is that so?"

As Chen An spoke, he suddenly scooped up the increasingly curvaceous Wen Zhiyun and walked impatiently toward the room ahead, saying as he walked, "Compared to a bath, I think having a deep exchange with me will make your body feel even more relaxed."

"Chen, I'll give you three breaths to put me down." Wen Zhiyun's face fell instantly, and she said in an extremely dissatisfied tone, "I remember telling you that you aren't allowed to touch me for the next few days."

"Yes, you did say that, but I don't recall ever agreeing to it."

Chen An pushed open the bedroom door and walked quickly toward the bed while holding Wen Zhiyun; Wen Zhiyun, having just finished her bath, was simply too alluring, and he couldn't hold himself back at all.

At first, Wen Zhiyun struggled a little, but it was just for show to demonstrate her tsundere attitude.

Before long, she was half-reluctantly carried to the bed by Chen An, letting him have his way with her.

And when she was handled to a certain point, she would even actively cooperate with Chen An.

The main point was to maintain her tsundere persona.
