Chapter 782: Two People Have a Leg

Perspective shift.

Sai Fei Er walked at the front, her silver‑gray cat Tail lazily swaying behind her; her ears turned forward, her gemstone‑blue pupils rolled twice, and the corner of her mouth curled, revealing her signature little fang.

This Huo Huo is definitely suspicious.

Sai Fei Er glanced sideways at the green‑haired Fox People girl behind her.

Her Deceitful Divine Authority had indeed been activated; as long as the other party believes, the lie draws nearer to reality.

But the effect came too quickly!

She casually fabricated a story called "Luofu Local Enthusiastic Good Cat"; ordinarily, the seepage of ability takes time, and the other side should hesitate for a few breaths before gradually accepting.

But the green‑haired little Fox People nodded so decisively that there wasn't even a ripple of struggle in her eyes.

Moreover, she herself is from the Ten Kings Office, yet when Sai Fei Er mentioned matters related to the Ten Kings Office, her reaction was a simple "Oh, I see."

Either the girl's ears are faulty and she misheard.

Or, beneath that timid little face, it isn't Huo Huo at all.

Sai Fei Er gave her own deduction a perfect score in her mind.

Anyway, who cares—whether it's genuine or not has nothing to do with Sai Fei Er.

Her purpose for coming to Luofu is summed up in one word: stir trouble.

Now the party has a suspicious‑identity little Fox People, which makes things even more interesting.

The murkier the water, the more a cat can fish.

She placed both hands behind her head, her steps light as if hopping on squares, and she had already begun to spill something from her mouth.

"Speaking of which—"

Sai Fei Er elongated the ending, glanced back at the two, "Do you know, over these years in Luofu I've done a lot of jobs. I've delivered parcels, set up street stalls, helped the Construction Office tighten screws, and even served as a temporary clerk at Shen Ce Fu for a while."

Dan Heng's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Shen Ce Fu?

Sai Fei Er caught the subtle shift in his expression, her ear tips quivered, and she continued, "During my time at Shen Ce Fu, I really broadened my horizons. Do you know, some things look one way outside the office, but seeing them inside is a whole different matter."

She deliberately stopped there, her Tail drawing a proud arc behind her.

Dan Heng remained silent.

Huo Huo blinked timidly with those big green eyes, whispered a soft "mm," as if waiting for what comes next.

Sai Fei Er suddenly half‑turned, raised her index finger to her lips, making a "shh" gesture.

A sly flash flickered in her blue pupils.

"I'm going to tell you something; don't spread it outside."

She leaned forward, her voice pressed down to a whisper, as if sharing a world‑shaking secret, "General Jingyuan, and his little disciple Yan Qing, have! a! leg!"

The dock fell silent for a full three seconds.

Dan Heng's mouth twitched first, and the muscles across his face froze.

"... What?"

Huo Huo's round green eyes blinked, her lips slightly parting, emitting a light "ah?"

"Your reaction is exactly right."

Sai Fei Er nodded with satisfaction, her cat ears turning forward at an angle, "When I first learned it, I felt just like you. But think about it—I saw it with my own eyes."

Dan Heng opened his mouth.

His rational mind told him this was pure nonsense.

But another part of his brain, the portion being silently smeared by some unseen force, began to loosen.

Dan Heng blinked forcefully, trying to dispel the dissonance in his mind.

He couldn't.

Sai Fei Er took in both expressions, and the thieving cat inside her was already rolling around.

She cleared her throat, striking while the iron was hot.

"I'll tell you, you might think Yan Qing looks tender, short, with a soft face, always seeming like the little disciple being hauled by the master's neck for a lecture. Wrong!"

Sai Fei Er raised a finger, tapped it in the air, "He's the one the saying 'small body, big spirit' refers to. He is, the one above!"

Dan Heng wanted to say something, but it was clear Sai Fei Er gave him no chance to interject.

She raised a finger and began narrating in the rhythm of a teahouse storyteller.

"You didn't see Yan Qing's demeanor in front of the General. Outside, Yan Qing always appears as a modest, courteous little swordsman, sweetly calling everyone 'senior.' But once back in Shen Ce Fu, with only him and the General, the aura shifts in an instant. His tone, his gaze, everything changes!"

Huo Huo's mouth twitched extremely subtly; she covered her mouth with a paw, her shoulders trembling slightly, looking fearful, but on close watch it was clearly a suppressed laugh.

"The specifics are as follows."

"That night, I was working overtime sorting files; almost everyone in Shen Ce Fu had left. I stepped out of the clerical room, passed by the General's office; the door wasn't tightly shut, leaving a slit—"

Sai Fei Er, at this point, had her ears perked up, her voice even lower, "I heard Yan Qing say inside, 'General, you've been approving documents all day, your shoulders are stiff, let me help.'"

Dan Heng's brow twitched.

Isn't that quite normal?

"Then I heard the rustling of clothing,"

Sai Fei Er's cat ears turned forward, making a 'I'm listening intently' pose, "General Jing Yuan said, 'Yan Qing, stop messing around.' That tone, you know, says stop, but the body didn't move."

Dan Heng's Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

Huh?

He tried to interject, but Sai Fei Er's voice was like a fluffy paw lightly scratching his eardrum, each word drilling clearly into his mind.

"Yan Qing added, 'General, you always do this—say no with your mouth, but your body clearly welcomes it.' I was leaning against the doorframe, my heart nearly leapt out of my throat. Then I heard the General let out a soft gasp—"

Sai Fei Er covered her face with both hands, only her shining eyes visible, her cat ears folded against her hair, and from between her fingers she whispered, "That gasp—let me tell you, my legs went limp."

Huo Huo lowered their head to look at their shoe tip, their ear tips red as boiled shrimp.

Dan Heng laboriously raised a hand and rubbed their own temples.

"Later I really couldn't hold back, so I peeked through the crack in the door,"

Sai Fei Er removed their hand from their face, cat Tail flicked behind them into a tiny S shape, "Yan Qing's hand, can you guess where it went? It went straight into the general's collar! Half of the general's outer robe was stripped off and hung on the elbow, Yan Qing's other hand was sliding down the general's back. The general's hair was loose, white hair spread across the chair back, eyes half‑closed, cheeks red enough to bleed."

Dan Heng raised one hand, their lips quivered for a long moment, and only managed two words: "... Wait, wait."

"I know you don't believe!"
