Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

The room was empty, but there were quite a few clothes in the wardrobe.

Qianqian changed into a set of red gauze clothing without hesitation, then put on a veil; the clothing was thin and somewhat sheer, revealing Qianqian's fair neck and collarbones, and her arms were well exposed, showing her fair and tender arms, making her look charming and alluring.

The night at the Wanglou was exceptionally lively, with people coming and going, very lively.

Qianqian wore a veil and cleverly blended into the crowd, with no one noticing her true identity.

Occasionally, a few people looked at her a few more times, but it was because of her slender figure and ethereal temperament, making people unable to help but look sideways.

Qianqian walked slowly along the corridor on the second floor, paying attention to the movements around her.

She discovered that behind almost every tightly closed room door came faint, fragmented sounds that made people blush, but one room was unusually quiet, which aroused Qianqian's alertness.

She immediately focused all her attention on that room, but inside it was silent as a grave, as if no one existed.

Qianqian couldn't help but feel doubtful; she listened intently for a while, but still found nothing.

Qianqian was unwilling to give up just like that and decided to take some action.

She tiptoed to the door, pressed her ear tightly against it, and listened carefully to the movements inside.

However, after a long wait, she still heard nothing.

Just as Qianqian felt somewhat discouraged, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

She thought of a method that might allow her to learn about the situation inside the room.

So, she turned and quickly walked toward the back kitchen, picked up a pot of hot water, and then carefully returned to the room door.

Qianqian gently knocked on the door, then waited quietly for a response. After a while, she heard a low and muffled voice from inside: "Come in."

After receiving permission, Qianqian took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the door.

As soon as the door opened, she saw a screen standing at the entrance, just blocking the view inside the room. Qianqian went around the screen and finally saw the scene inside.

Ouyang Chengren, dressed in a black robe, was sitting upright at the table; beside him was empty, with no one else, not even a woman's figure visible.

Qianqian couldn't help but feel very surprised, secretly thinking to herself: "Isn't coming to a Wanglou for pleasure? Why is he sitting here alone and lonely?"

Although her heart was full of questions, Qianqian still suppressed her curiosity and said softly: "Guest, I've placed the water on the table for you." After speaking, she walked to the table and gently placed the water pot on it.

At the moment of placing the water pot, Qianqian couldn't help but secretly glance at Ouyang Chengren.

Upon seeing this, her heart couldn't help but tremble. Ouyang Chengren, after removing his armor, appeared even more stern and resolute; his deep gaze was like a cold pool, making people unconsciously want to drown in it.

Qianqian took a deep breath, tried to calm herself, and then carefully placed the water pot on the table, as if it were a fragile piece of porcelain.

Her heart was beating heavily, afraid that her nervousness would be discovered by Ouyang Chengren.

Ouyang Chengren looked at Qianqian with an expressionless face; his voice was calm and indifferent: "Alright, if there's nothing else, go downstairs and close the door."

Qianqian bowed slightly, performed a salute, and said softly: "Yes." Her movements were elegant and light, like a frightened little deer.

Just as she stood up, Ouyang Chengren's gaze inadvertently fell upon her.

Since he was sitting on a stool and Qianqian was slightly bowing in salute, his height was actually a bit shorter than Qianqian's.

This squatting allowed Ouyang Chengren, when looking levelly, to vaguely see her peerless appearance through Qianqian's veil.

Ouyang Chengren's heart couldn't help but stir. Over these years, he had indeed met women who made his heart stir, but those women were often just outstanding in appearance, having only looks, and were of no great help to his career. Therefore, he had never married.

The type he liked was one who looked soft and boneless, as if a gust of wind could blow her down, yet seemed to possess an inner resilience.

Moreover, the family background needed to be weaker; for him, such a woman would be less likely to arouse Ouyang Chengqi's suspicion.

More importantly, it would be best if she knew some martial arts and could have the ability to protect herself.

No matter what situation she encountered, she could protect herself, but such a woman was truly too rare.

Qianqian's current attire was exactly the type Ouyang Chengren liked; Ouyang Chengren's heartbeat involuntarily quickened a bit. He gazed at Qianqian, watching her slowly stand up, then turn and leave, preparing to leave.

Just then, Qianqian lightly turned around, preparing to leave. However, her foot accidentally stepped on a corner of her skirt, and this small mistake caused her to instantly lose her balance.

Accompanied by a weak cry of surprise, Qianqian's body suddenly leaned forward; her heart instantly accelerated, and countless possible consequences flashed through her mind.

She tightly closed her eyes, thinking she was about to have an unpleasant "intimate contact" with the ground.

However, just as she was about to fall, a powerful force suddenly held her tightly.

This force came from a cold and hard embrace, as solid as steel, steadily supporting Qianqian's body.

Qianqian secretly rejoiced; she harbored a hint of a probing thought.

She wanted to see if Ouyang Chengren would catch her, after all, in such a situation, he had every reason to choose to turn a blind eye.

And that veil was also deliberately worn by her. From a distance, perhaps others couldn't see her appearance clearly, but someone like Ouyang Chengren, who was level with her and so close, would definitely be able to see her face through the veil.

Qianqian just wanted to try this "Beauty Stratagem" to see if it would work, whether she could successfully seduce Ouyang Chengren.

If so, she would have a chance to use Ouyang Chengren to get close to Ouyang Chengqi and Ouyang Qianqiu, thereby investigating news about Wangchen, and possibly even avenging Jie'er.

Thinking of this, Qianqian slowly opened her eyes, and her gaze met Ouyang Chengren's.

At that moment, time seemed to stop flowing, and the whole world had only the two of them. Ouyang Chengren's eyes were deep and sharp, as if they could see through everything.

However, the moment he looked at Qianqian, his gaze was attracted by the innocence in her eyes, as if it were a clear lake, making people unable to help but want to explore it.

However, the moment he met Qianqian's gaze, his eyes were drawn to the innocence in hers, As If it were a clear lake, making one Yi Bu want to explore Ultimately.
