Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder

The Strongest Fox-Demon (64)

Two Daoist masters came and stood guard outside the door. Chu Xiang chatted with the Third Young Master round and round in circles. Unable to wait for her, he almost lost patience and said, “I heard that you can tell fortunes. I have a missing half-brother. I wonder if you can help me calculate where he is now? Is it safe and sound?”

Chu Xiang was indeed proficient at fortune telling. She carefully studied the face of the Third Young Master and let out a “Huh!”.

The Third Young Master asked curiously, “How is it? Did you figure it out?”

Chu Xiang frowned slightly. “Why can’t I read your face?”

The Third Young Master laughed as soon as he heard this. “I also met a few Daoist masters and I heard them say that… Only those who are on intimate terms with each other can’t perceive the other’s face. Could it be that you and I are destined?”

Chu Xiang has met a lot of people, and as soon as he cocked his tail, she knew what he was up to. However, even if this person was good-looking, this kind of person who casually flirted with a “married woman” was too cheap!

Chu Xiang didn’t answer his words. She poured a few drops of tea on the table and tried another method to tell his fortune, but it still didn’t work. She waved her hand to clean the table and said with a smile, “It seems that I can’t do business with you. You should hire someone else. I still have some accounts to check, so please excuse me. The tea here is not bad. please enjoy it.”

Chu Xiang got up to leave, but the Third Young Master hurriedly reached out to stop her. “Huh? Why are you leaving so soon? It’s fine if you can’t figure it out. It’s rare that I’m free today. Won’t you stay with me and drink tea on the lake, Lady Boss?”

“That’s probably inappropriate.”

“Why is it inappropriate? You and I are destined. It would be a pity if we parted here.” It was indeed rare for the Third Young Master to come out for entertainment and he was going back before dusk, so he naturally didn’t want to let go of this opportunity.

He looked at Chu Xiang’s face and couldn’t help but wonder. All the women in his residence paled in comparison to Chu Xiang. As stunning as Chu Xiang, she was only meant to enter his house. How could someone else deserve to have her?

Chu Xiang glanced at him. He did not see how she moved but in the blink of an eye, she was at the door. When the man in blue saw this, he hurriedly said, “Daoist masters, keep her in the room!”

The two Daoist masters outside the door responded and stopped Chu Xiang at the same time. Chu Xiang’s smile faded. She turned and looked at the Third Young Master. “What do you mean, Young Master?”

The Third Young Master sat back to his original position in a leisurely manner, waved his folding fan and said arrogantly, “Of course I want to continue this fate with you, Lady Boss.”

The man in blue walked in front of Chu Xiang and said, “Lady Boss, the Third Young Master has never valued any woman this much. You are the first. You have worked hard to manage the teahouse and make appearances in public. You certainly must have suffered a lot of bitterness. If the Third Young Master takes care of you, you can enjoy the glory and wealth inexhaustibly, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you’ll fly to the branches. If you hit it off with the Third Young Master, you might be in for greater fortunes in the future.”

“Oh?” Chu Xiang thought it was funny. She usually checked accounts and read story books in the teahouse and didn’t show herself publicly that often. Thus, she didn’t bother to disguise herself and used her original appearance, which was naturally eye-catching. She didn’t expect to attract such trouble because of her appearance. If she were an ordinary woman, this would be a disaster, right?

Nonetheless, she didn’t bother to pay attention to them. Being entangled with the powerful for this reason was the most annoying thing. Chu Xiang waved her hand to close the door of the room and froze them before they could react. She walked up to the Third Young Master with her hands behind her back, stretched out her hand to caress his face and said with disgust, “Your face is not tender enough, your temper is not good enough, and your figure is not attractive enough. Yet, you want to warm my bed? Where did you dig such confidence?”

The Third Young Master’s eyes widened. He was startled and furious, but he couldn’t move, “What did you do? Let me go! Otherwise I…”

Chu Xiang snapped her fingers and he became mute, and so did the others. She surveyed the few people and directly used the same enchantment as Bai Yi, making them forget memories about her and then smoothly left the room. With a snap, they regained their senses.

When the Third Young Master saw the two Daoist masters, all he remembered was that he asked them for a meeting to ask about his missing brother. He looked at the sky and asked impatiently, “Have you found any clues?”

The two Daoist masters shook their heads in unison, “Third Young Master, he is too good at hiding his tracks. It is really hard to find him, but he was seriously injured back then…”

“Okay, I want to see him if he is alive and his corpse if he is dead!” The Third Young Master didn’t listen to their excuses, interrupted them and left in a huff.

The man in blue followed closely and asked him if he wanted to go to other places for entertainment. The guards and the two Daoist masters also left. From the beginning to the end, no one remembered that they had seen Chu Xiang.

Chu Xiang had already forgotten about them when she checked the accounts. He was just a dandy. What did he have to do with her?

As dusk approached, the Third Young Master returned to the palace and at the gates, he met Prince Qi who was about to return to his manor. When Prince Qi saw him, he frowned. “Where have you been fooling around again? Imperial Father just lifted your ban. Don’t make him angry again.”

The Third Young Master, the third prince, shook his folding fan and said with a smile, “Second Brother, don’t worry, I just went out for a walk and had some tea.”

“Huh?” The white-haired Daoist master behind Prince Qi looked at the Third Prince with doubts on his face.

Prince Qi and the Third Prince looked at him at the same time. Prince Qi asked seriously, “Is something the matter?”

The Daoist master slowly circled the Third Prince, inspected him carefully, and said solemnly after a while, “The Third Prince exudes a very evil aura. Someone has cast a spell on you. Third Prince, where have you been today?”
