Her long hair was soaked by the water in the bath and hung down on her shoulders. It was extremely sexy. Amidst the steam rising from the hot water, there was a hint of red.

As Hong Jian waited for Bao Yan to take a bath, she also wasn't willing to let Chu Ci go so easily during daytime.

Bao Yan played with the water as she stopped. Her red lips that was covered by the mist lifted up into a cold smile and said: "Don't worry, I have my own plans."

Thinking about how Chu Ci had provoked her in the prison, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart.

Her fire was much more intense than Hong Jian's.

Did the woman make fun of her for not having children? She would give birth to one for him to see.

"Hong Jian, I have something for you to do."

"Yes, ma'am?"

Hong Jian moved her ear close to her mouth, and after Bao Yan whispered into her ear twice, a difficult expression appeared on her face.

"Ma'am, is that okay? If Prince finds out, then …. "

"What's there to be afraid of? If Prince knew, he would at most scold me a little. Why would he be willing to kill me?"

Bao Yan's cold snort interrupted Hong Jian's worries. She was still extremely confident in Rong Yu's favors, but sometimes, she didn't even know that she was overconfident and accidentally stepped on Rong Yu's bottom line.

Looking at Bao Yan's confident look, Hong Jian opened her mouth, but after a few times of speaking, she stopped herself from speaking.

"Yes Madam, this matter shall be left to this servant."

Hong Jian nodded, she herself also wanted to take care of that lower class woman, if the Madam's orders were to succeed, it would naturally be a great thing.

"Alright, change your clothes."

Bao Yan stood up from the bathroom, Hong Jian took a towel and helped her clean it up, then helped her change into a set of casual pajamas.

"Yes."

The master and the servant left the bath, went around the layers of erected screens, and walked out of the inner hall.

The hanging tent curtains slowly opened, and just as the master and servant had taken half a step, they saw that there was an additional person in the room.

That well-defined facial features, cast by the bright light of the room, reflected a cold and distant face against the flat wall.

He just sat there quietly, his fingertips casually rubbing against each other. In his absent-mindedness, he seemed to be deep in thought.

Bao Yan and Yue Shan were shocked at first, but following that, their eyes revealed a hint of undisguised joy, they hastened their steps and came out from behind the curtains.

"I pay my respects to Prince."

"This servant greets Prince."

The master and servant bowed down one after the other, at the same time, Rong Yu also slowly turned his gaze towards them.

Who would have thought that Rong Yu would appear here without a sound tonight? The master-servant duo felt a little apprehensive, but seeing that Rong Yu was staring at them silently, the sense of unease in their hearts grew even stronger.

The two of them looked at each other, and after exchanging confused looks, they heard Rong Yu say, "Stand up."

After hearing Rong Yu finally say something, the master and servant quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Prince."

After getting up, Bao Yan used a stealthy gaze to signal for Hong Jian to retreat. Hong Jian understood and nodded her head, then sensibly left the room and closed the door.

Once again, Bao Yan carefully sized up Rong Yu's expression. Her mouth formed a coquettish smile, and walked towards Rong Yu's side.

"Prince, I did not expect that Prince would come to my place tonight. I have come to welcome you from afar, please forgive me."

Although she said those fake words of courtesy, the movements of her hands on Rong Yu's shoulders and chest, were unbridled as she rubbed them back and forth.

This undisguised seduction merely caused Rong Yu to take a glance at it, and then, with a clear and cold voice, he asked a little absent-mindedly. "This King heard that you went to see Chu Ci in prison today?"

This tone of voice was so calm that Bao Yan could not figure out the least bit of her emotions, as if she was talking about something too unimportant.

But because of the mention of Chu Ci, Bao Yan's heart couldn't help but sink as well.

After thinking for a while, she forced out a smile from the corner of her mouth. Looking at Rong Yu, she said tentatively: "Please forgive me, I know that I don't like to hear you plead for me as my big sister, but I'm still worried about my big sister's body. I had no choice but to go against your wishes and visit you in your cell …"

When she said till here, she paused for a moment and carefully sized up Rong Yu's indifferent face. Seeing that his expression changed slightly, and that he still did not have a single hint of happiness or anger on his face, she did not dare to relax her tensed heart, and could only lower her head in apology. "I know my wrongs, Prince, please punish me."

Her eyes drooped uneasily. She didn't know how Rong Yu would punish her for acting on her own accord.

Although what he said sounded nice on the surface, it still went against Rong Yu's words.

However, the more Rong Yu stayed silent and did not say a word, the more apprehensive she became. His heart was in his throat, and he did not dare to relax.

"Perfect..."

Suddenly, the two words came out of Rong Yu's mouth, and in that moment, Bao Yan was unable to keep up with the tempo. As his eyes were filled with bewilderment, he heard Rong Yu continue: "Since you went to see her, did she say anything?"

From the moment he entered the door until now, when he asked about Chu Ci's situation, that pair of cold eyes that did not have a hint of warmth in his body, was finally officially thrown onto Bao Yan's face.

Seeing that Rong Yu did not pursue the matter any further, Bao Yan was stunned for half a second.

Her coquettish smile once again spread across her face. Thinking back to the battle with Chu Ci in the prison, she obviously would not tell everything to Rong Yu honestly.

Only, it was rare for the Prince to come to the Fireworks Pavilion today, so she naturally had to grab hold of such a good opportunity.

After thinking for a moment, she covered her mouth and pretended to be bashful as she laughed twice. "Actually, I don't think big sister is that despicable. She was the one who was locked up and was thinking for the Prince."

Speaking to this, she once again carefully sized up Rong Yu. She was shocked to discover that a fleeting brightness swept across Rong Yu's pair of eyes that seemed to be devoid of any emotion.

The light was fleeting, but it stood out against his cold face.
