CHAPTER 1499: 316, FEMALE DOG (THIRD WATCH)

Indeed, Xia Zheng smugly raised an eyebrow, giving Lin Yuan a cheeky grin, and said, "Su Tianrui is right across the room, he saw everything clearly. After Mo Zhu took Yao Hanai into the next room, Zhao Hongsheng went in."

Zhao Hongsheng?

Lin Yuan’s lips slightly curved up, just as she suspected.

Seeing Lin Yuan’s expression confirming her guess, Xia Zheng playfully tweaked her nose and continued, "However, it seems Zhao Hongsheng and Mo Zhu didn’t expect those noble ladies to come, otherwise, he wouldn’t have fled through the window when those people caused a disturbance."

Pfft!

Lin Yuan couldn’t hold back her laughter as her mind suddenly conjured up a familiar scene from her past life’s hearsay, where, in the midst of an affair, the real partner comes back and the lover, bare-butted and holding clothes and shoes, awkwardly escapes through the window.

But she had never imagined that even a Prince could be caught and blocked at the door; did he escape bare-butted? Was he holding his clothes? Did the people on the streets see him?

Indeed, there must have been a lot of people on the street; if he didn’t want to be recognized, he would have had to cover his head with his clothes. But then, how could he cover his body with his clothes over his head?

Tsk tsk, could this guy really have been tightly wrapping his head while running naked?

Lin Yuan’s eyes sparkled, and she chuckled softly with a mischievous smirk on her face. If there were a mirror, her smile would be strikingly similar to Xia Zheng’s!

Slap!

Xia Zheng playfully slapped Lin Yuan on the forehead, pulling her back from her immoral thoughts, "What kind of messy things are you thinking about?"

Lin Yuan touched her forehead, smiling embarrassingly, but from Xia Zheng’s expression, it was clear he was thinking along the same lines.

"Although you have some indecent thoughts, you’re quite close to the truth because Zhao Hongsheng did indeed use his coat to cover his head when he jumped out."

Xia Zheng seemed to recall the scene he had witnessed, his lips curling up with a mixture of pride and schadenfreude.

When Zhao Hongsheng entered the inn, someone must have seen him; if he jumped out while still wearing that coat, wouldn’t it be like admitting his guilt? So he had no choice but to wrap his body with an undershirt and cover his head with the coat, and this guy, being vain, didn’t even wear a cloak when he went out, he deserved to be shivering from the cold.

Amused, Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, "No wonder when I entered the room, I saw Yao Hanai looking out the window, clearly watching Zhao Hongsheng hastily escaping. Tsk tsk, you’d think the guy, after having his fill, would at least tuck her in, huh? Poor Yao Hanai, being tossed about so much she didn’t even have the strength to cover herself, and there we were, seeing everything. Poor thing, poor thing!"

She said ’poor’ twice, but there was not a trace of sympathy for Yao Hanai on Lin Yuan’s face. That woman, in order to marry Xia Zheng, had come up with such a despicable strategy, she deserved to lose her reputation and innocence!

"Eh?"

Xia Zheng suddenly leaned in, his handsome face extremely clear in front of Lin Yuan, causing her to be taken aback, "Wh-what’s wrong?"

With a sly smile, Xia Zheng lifted Lin Yuan’s chin, his tone full of seduction, "If it were me, let alone not having the strength to cover with a blanket, you’d be too tired even to open your eyes."

Lin Yuan was stunned, what did he mean by being too tired to open her eyes?

Instinctively about to ask what he meant, a sudden realization hit Lin Yuan like an electric shock, this guy, his focus was actually on that!

Thinking about this, Lin Yuan felt her chin, lifted by Xia Zheng, as if it had been roasted over a fire, hurriedly swatted his hand away and turned her face huffing, "Shut up!"

"Why shut up? I think my mouth is particularly capable, ah, I understand now, do you want me not to use my mouth? How about my hands then?"

"You, you! Get your hands off!"

"Alright, alright, I’ll take my hands off. Since you don’t like it that way, what if I put them here?"

"You dare!"

Amidst a flurry of arguments and playful scuffles in the carriage, a sweet atmosphere continuously emanated.

Lin Yi listlessly waved his whip, leisurely driving the carriage up and down the street.

Shopkeeper Liu was still waiting at the Dongtian entrance for Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan to return, but Lin Yi had already driven the carriage past the entrance twice without any intention of stopping.
