Chapter 79: Master, You Wouldn't Want the Maid to Know About This, Would You?

Having obtained Liu Qingmei's consent, Ning Mu was instantly overjoyed.

Immediately.

He directly grasped the jade hand that was brushing and rhythmically moving across his shoulder, then pulled it slowly downward, following the flow of the water, passing over his chest...

With her body nearly leaning into the bath barrel, Liu Qingmei was incredibly bashful and immediately gave a coquettish rebuke.

"Don't go too far!"

"... Master, just once, you see what your Disciple really is!"

Ning Mu wore a mischievous smile, but his eyes revealed something genuine!

This involved the issue of his dignity as a man; how could he compromise? If it was going too far, then so be it!

It must be said.

Enjoying the bath-side service of a beautiful Master was very comfortable.

Although her movements were very clumsy, one could tell at a glance she was not the type of person who knew how to serve others.

In terms of technique, the process of scrubbing his face was not just a little bit worse than Chunzhi and Xia Chan; it was simply like the difference between clouds and mud.

But it couldn't be helped; this kind of psychological enjoyment greatly satisfied his strange obsession with conquest.

Liu Qingmei's face burned like fire.

Her movements even slowed down.

This was a world of difference from what Liu Qingmei had imagined.

Compared to her husband Ye Bufan, it was simply incomparable.

"The water is already cold, aren't you coming out yet?"

Looking at Ning Mu, who had been scrubbed until he was flushed red, the delicate and charming Liu Qingmei suppressed her inner shyness and spoke with a reproachful tone.

It had already been nearly half an hour.

She could feel that Chunzhi and Xia Chan had already prepared dinner in the courtyard and were just waiting for them to come out to eat.

But when she entered the room, she had already locked the door from the inside.

"Almost, almost!"

Ning Mu had a bewildered look on his face.

???

Liu Qingmei was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized.

You brat! What kind of mischief are you up to?

What do you mean by "almost, almost"?

Do you really take me for some ignorant little girl who knows nothing of the world!

Liu Qingmei felt a wave of embarrassment and was furious.

But at such a critical moment, with intense shyness surging in her heart, where would she find the courage to say anything?

She could only scrub his shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, face, and other parts with her slender jade hands, her face flushed and burning hot.

It was called scrubbing.

But it was about the same as caressing and rubbing.

There was a lingering charm of flirting with a lover in it.

Knock~ knock-knock~ suddenly.

Just as Liu Qingmei was covered in fragrant sweat, as if not yet awakened from a great dream, and Ning Mu was closing his eyes with his whole body tense, seemingly exerting strength all over.

A knocking sound rang out.

"Young Master... dinner is ready, would you like to eat now?"

"The Mistress doesn't know where she went either, should we send someone out to look for her, Young Master?"

Outside the door.

Chunzhi's sweet, soft, and delicate voice rang out leisurely.

"Hoo... ha!"

Ning Mu let out a heavy breath.

Finally!

Whether it was because she was shocked by the movement that pierced the water's surface, or because she was startled by the sudden knocking, Liu Qingmei instantly stopped her movements, looking at the door with extreme tension, her whole body stiff and rigid, her eyes filled with terror.

At the same time, she was incredibly shocked.

"Mm, coming right away, if the food is cold, just heat it up again."

Ning Mu answered calmly.

"Alright, Young Master, then the Mistress..."

Outside the door, Chunzhi's voice rang out again, and to Liu Qingmei's ears, it seemed to carry a hint of suspicion. Liu Qingmei immediately reacted, looking at Ning Mu with her beautiful peach-blossom eyes in a plea.

Obviously.

It was to tell him not to let anything slip.

After all, Chunzhi was not like Liu Xiaoya; although she was equally loyal, she was not as intimate with her as Xiaoya.

She might not spread it, but it would be somewhat awkward!

After all, she was Ning Mu's Master.

Yet, not only did she sneak in while Ning Mu was bathing, but she also served him like a little maid, and even...

Looking at the petals floating on the surface of the bath barrel, Liu Qingmei pursed her lips, her eyes filled with longing.

More importantly.

There is still a Half-step Divine Origin Realm nun present in the courtyard!

If the events of tonight were to spread from her mouth, how could she maintain her standing in the Ye Family! "A married woman, having a midnight tryst with her male disciple."

If this news were to reach those tabloid papers of the pugilistic world, it would not just be a matter of being mocked by fellow martial artists; she would likely be condemned by all! And that is not even the key point.

If her husband Ye Bufan were to wake up and learn of this, if the Ye Family Clan Elders were to learn of it, if the elders of the Liu Family were to learn of it...

She dared not imagine it any further!

At this very moment, she could only look at Ning Mu with a pleading gaze.

The key to her future life seemed to be held in the hands of this lecherous disciple.

Whether it turned left or right depended entirely on a single thought of his.

Seeing Liu Qingmei so nervous and flustered, Ning Mu could not help but smile evilly.

A thought stirred in his mind.

He casually picked up a floating flower petal.

He rose abruptly, kicking up a splash of water, and turned to face Liu Qingmei directly; their gazes met, close at hand, and they could almost feel each other's breath spraying onto their faces.

Ning Mu leaned down to stare at Liu Qingmei, lowered his voice, and smirked: "Master, for a woman, this item is an excellent skincare product, especially for a married woman like you, Master; the effect is even better!"

"Although your skin is good, Master, you are after all not a young maiden; if you use this medicine to apply to your face regularly, in the long run, your youth will surely return."

"Besides, you wouldn't want the things here to be known by the maidservants outside, would you, Master?"

The first two sentences were enticement, while the last was a well-intentioned threat and coercion.

In fact.

Ning Mu just wanted to test exactly how low Liu Qingmei's bottom line had dropped.

Furthermore.

The system's Loyalty is, to put it bluntly, just a number.

(Deeply Affectionate) 78%.

Just how deeply affectionate is that? The changes in the human heart can never be replaced by a single number.

Therefore, on a whim, he wanted to test Liu Qingmei's attitude.

Hearing Ning Mu's words, a flash of shame and annoyance immediately crossed Liu Qingmei's eyes, but she did not get angry; instead, the unwillingness of being manipulated and an indescribable sense of shame overflowed onto her face.

If time were delayed further, it would inevitably make those outside suspicious.

She glared at Ning Mu indignantly.

Then, without a word, she snatched the flower petal from Ning Mu's hand.

And then...

She applied it to her face.

"Satisfied now, you little beast!"

She did not speak, but moved her lips slightly, using lip-reading to convey the words.

She was worried that if she made a sound, it would be overheard by the Divine Nun Ciyun, whose Cultivation Points were superior to her own.

Ning Mu could not help but grin.

His Master's reaction made him very satisfied.

In fact, he was also feeling anxious in his heart, and regretted it a little as soon as the words left his mouth.

After all, the human heart cannot withstand testing.

Furthermore, Liu Qingmei is a Grandmaster and a married woman; with all these identities combined, she is certainly not someone easily manipulated.

But the current result is good.

At the very least, she seems to be immersed in this excitement, willing to be manipulated by him.

Even enjoying the intense stimulation derived from being manipulated by him.
