No one answered Si Qin's question, but everyone's reaction already answered the question.

Little Qing was pleasantly surprised as she looked at Mu Xiaoling. Other than being choked by their fear, Si Qin's two maids were unable to make a sound.

So the master and this woman were actually familiar with each other …

Xiao Yu sighed as he walked over to Mu Xiaoling. "Are you feeling well?"

Mu Xiaoling quickly withdrew his expression and calmly shook his head. "I'm fine."

"Master …" Si Qin was not really stupid and saw that the situation was bad. She immediately suppressed her hatred and grabbed onto Mu Xiaoling's hand, "This servant has eyes but does not recognize Mt. Tai. Please bypass this servant."

Mu Xiaoling glanced at Si Qin indifferently and didn't say anything. This kind of small scheme wasn't worth lying to her.

Xiao Yu looked at Mu Xiaoling's hand that was being held by Si Qin. His eyebrows creased and he gently touched Si Qin's wrist. With a 'ka cha' sound, Si Qin's wrist fell down at an unbelievable angle.

Si Qin screamed, his face instantly went pale, the pain causing him to tremble.

Xiao Yu picked up Mu Xiaoling's hand and gently wiped it off like a treasure. He didn't even let go of a finger as he casually said, "Drag her out and kill her."

As soon as Xiao Yu finished speaking, three black clothed men appeared out of nowhere and dragged Si Qin and the other two away. They didn't make any other movements, and even Si Qin and the other two had their throats strangled before they could even react, similarly not making a sound.

"The eyesore has left. Let's go in." Xiao Yu casually threw the handkerchief away and held it in his hand. Every word seemed to emit an unspeakable doting feeling.

Mu Xiaoling felt as though her palm had been burned. She pulled on it, but the grip tightened and Xiao Yu took her back to her room.

After entering the room, Xiao Yu pulled someone to sit on a chair, and Little Qing brought over a plate of fruit and placed it on the table.

Mu Xiaoling felt an unspeakable awkwardness as she pulled her hand again. This time, Xiao Yu let go and picked up an apple to slowly peel off its skin.

Mu Xiaoling couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"

"When I went out that day, I met the hall master of the Western Ran Hall by chance. I made up a temporary identity and said that it was an envoy sent by the Central Plains to supervise them." Xiao Yu spoke in a carefree manner. After he finished speaking, he cut the apple in his hand into small pieces and used a toothpick to stick one piece towards Mu Xiaoling's lips.

Mu Xiaoling couldn't help but frown. Xiao Yu's actions were even bolder than before, causing her to not know how to face him.

Xiao Yu glanced outside the door and said with a smile, "I told them that you're my darling girl."

Following his movements, Mu Xiaoling saw a pair of eyes peeking in through the crack on the door.

It seemed like Qi He didn't completely trust Xiao Yu's identity, but since Xiao Yu had given her the identity, she had to act properly. At the very least, she couldn't drag him down.

It was sour and sweet, and very tasty. Unexpectedly, there were even fruits in the forest.

"Can't he hear?" She glanced at the person outside the door again and asked.

"I can't hear you. There is a formation in the room that can prevent sound from leaking out." Xiao Yu patiently explained, "However, your appearance still caused that Qi He to suspect me."

When Mu Xiaoling heard this, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty. If it wasn't for her, Xiao Yu wouldn't have been caught red-handed.

The smile flashed within Xiao Yu's beautiful eyes, and he wished he could act a little more pitifully. He finally understood that this little girl would only take the soft side and not the strong side.

Originally, I was merely curious about what they had done. Even if they were to be discovered and left, it would be fine; moreover, they would not dare to do anything to me. However, I told them that you have not left my room for a day.

When Mu Xiaoling heard Xiao Yu's words, she felt even more guilty. Gritting her teeth, she stood up and sat on Xiao Yu's leg. "Don't worry, I know what's important."

Xiao Yu smiled as he stretched out his arms to embrace Mu Xiaoling. He could clearly smell the fragrance of the flowers, clear and light, just like Mu Xiaoling. At first, she didn't show it, but the more they got along, the more captivating it was for them.

"Ling'er." "Thank you," he whispered, kissing her cheek.

Mu Xiaoling had never been so intimate with a man in her entire life. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was sitting on a needle as she blushed and hid like an ostrich. Then she looked at Xiao Yu and decided to just break things.

Xiao Yu saw Mu Xiaoling's struggle in his eyes and felt that this girl was becoming more and more adorable. He wished he could hug her forever and not let her go.

He carried her in his arms and laid her on the bed. The curtains in the room fluttered without wind, obscuring the situation inside.

The people outside could not see them clearly, and could only barely see the two figures. However, that was enough.

The formations outside of the house weren't able to defend against the house, so it was easy for Mu Xiaoling to hear the footsteps that were gradually leaving. With a flushed face, she lifted Xiao Yu and sat up.

When she raised her head, she coincidentally saw Xiao Yu's smiling eyes, but the emotions in his eyes were too complicated, so she simply waved her hand and chanted a few chants.

The Crimson Gold Rat blankly stared at its owner, not understanding why he was called out now. However, it soon noticed that there was such a huge bed, and immediately cried out while rolling around on the bed. The whole mouse was very unhappy.

With Xiao Jin's presence, Mu Xiaoling finally felt that the bed wasn't that awkward anymore. She wanted to get off the bed, but was stopped by Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly, "Are you trying to make them think I'm useless?"

Mu Xiaoling, who was completely unable to understand what Xiao Jin meant, froze and obediently sat back on the bed. She saw Xiao Jin transform back into the appearance of a mouse and immediately pulled him into her embrace.

The fur on the Goldbiter Rat was soft and supple, and the feeling of his hands was quite good.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "Do you know Xue Qing?"

Xiao Yu nodded. In reality, he wasn't called out to deal with this earlier, so he said, "Yeah, he was beaten half dead and locked in the dungeon."

Mu Xiaoling was silent for a moment. She really didn't understand why Xue Qing jumped out at that moment. She clearly understood her plan, but she was willing to suffer all this for her. "Can I go to the dungeon?"

Even though Xiao Yu knew that Xue Qing wasn't a human, he still couldn't help but feel a little jealous, "What do you want to do?"
