Hua Country.
Sea City.
After getting off the plane, Luo Xiu found a nearby hotel to settle Chi Sha and Dou Dou in. He didn't go to Number One Villa, as he had no intention of contacting Lin Xiyue again. As long as Lin Xiyue could live a good life, he would be at peace.
After showering and changing his clothes at the hotel, Luo Xiu contacted Su Shenyun and arranged to meet at a restaurant.
「At dusk.」
Luo Xiu hurried to the restaurant, already thinking about how he was going to deal with Su Shenyun.
But when he saw Su Shenyun, he found her still dressed in a professional skirt suit with her long hair styled in an updo. She looked utterly weary and haggard, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of pity.
"Su Fox, what happened to you?"
Su Shenyun stared at the handsome, refined young man before her. He wore glasses and seemed quite cultured. She was stunned for a long moment before it dawned on her.
"You're... Little Mule?"
She had never seen Luo Xiu's "Chen Shuisheng" appearance, but only he would ever call her "Su Fox" in that tone, so she immediately thought of him.
Luo Xiu adjusted the glasses on his nose and said, "I forgot to tell you the last time I was in Sea City. Because of that business with the Ye Family in the Capital City, I have to use a new face. My name is Chen Shuisheng now."
"I see. I understand."
Su Shenyun walked to the side, put down her bag, and reached back to smooth her form-fitting skirt as she sat down gracefully.
Luo Xiu sat opposite her. Looking at her exhausted appearance, he asked curiously, "Judging by your clothes, you've been working?"
"Of course. Between the Sun Family's business and the Audit Bureau's affairs, my head is about to explode."
Luo Xiu asked, "What about Xiao Li?"
At the mention of Sun Li, Su Shenyun fumed, "Don't even mention her. That girl does nothing but cultivate all day long, ignoring everything else."
Luo Xiu chuckled. "That's fair. Once an ordinary person sets foot on the Martial Way, it's very difficult to return to a normal life."
Su Shenyun pouted her luscious lips with a look of grievance. Suddenly, her beautiful legs under the table lifted and kicked off her crystal high heels. Then she placed her feet, wrapped in thin, glossy black stockings, onto Luo Xiu's lap.
"This big sister of yours is working so hard, and you don't even know how to dote on me. The first thing you ask about when you get back is Xiao Li."
Seeing her aggrieved look, Luo Xiu's heart melted on the spot. This enchantress could truly drive a man crazy at any moment.
"Let's eat first. I'll give you a proper massage later."
Su Shenyun looked at him with a sly smile. "A proper massage, or an improper one?"
Luo Xiu's gaze was gentle as he replied seriously, "A proper one."
Unexpectedly, Su Shenyun's expression changed in an instant. She said angrily, "A proper one? What's the point of a proper massage? I want an improper one."
Luo Xiu was speechless.
Suddenly, Su Shenyun frowned and stared intently at Luo Xiu. "Are you wearing a color contact lens in your left eye?"
Luo Xiu touched his nose. "It's blind."
Upon hearing that, the expression on Su Shenyun's face froze. Her heart felt like it was being sliced by a knife as she quickly asked, "What happened? How did you go blind?"
Luo Xiu waved his hand and smiled. "It's fine now. I have a new eye."
"Cut the crap and tell me now!"
"Can I tell you later? I'm really hungry."
"..."
The restaurant was quiet, with soft, romantic music playing, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere. Su Shenyun had already called to book the entire restaurant as soon as she had agreed to meet with Luo Xiu.
After dinner, Luo Xiu mysteriously led Su Shenyun into a deserted alleyway.
"What's this, baby? You're into the alleyway aesthetic now?"
Inhaling the unique body fragrance of her Innate Allure Bone, Luo Xiu could no longer hold back. He dominantly swept her into his arms in a princess carry as a light flickered in his left eye, opening a spatial entrance to the Land of Lawlessness.
Suddenly appearing in a world with a completely different aesthetic, Su Shenyun couldn't help but look astonished.
"Baby, where is this?"
"That's a long story. How about we... talk *after*?"
Su Shenyun's expression turned strange. "Talk *after*?"
Luo Xiu gave a wicked smirk and laid Su Shenyun down on a clean slab of stone amidst the ruins.
Lying on the stone, Su Shenyun's gaze was as gentle as water as she looked up at Luo Xiu pressing down on her. She lightly cradled his face in her hands.
"Baby, this feeling is so strange. It feels like I'm with another man."
"That won't do. I'd better change back to my original appearance."
Luo Xiu reached up and kneaded his face a few times, reverting to his true features.
"But speaking of that, I've always been curious. Before me, other than Boss Huang, how many other men have you been with?"
"Why, baby? Do you mind?"
Luo Xiu smiled nonchalantly. "You don't mind that I have so many women, so why should I mind about you? I'm just curious."
"Hmm... let me think. It seems there were quite a few. I remember once at a KTV, I hired three male models at the same time. They were so handsome, even taller than you..."
"Damn it, you even hired male models!"
Luo Xiu suddenly flew into a rage, and his movements became rough.
"AHHH! Baby, I was wrong! That was so long ago! You just said you didn't mind, so how can you turn on me faster than flipping a page in a book?"
"..."
A few hours later, a refreshed Luo Xiu led Su Shenyun out of the Land of Lawlessness and back into the alley in Sea City.
Amidst the endless ruins, the melodious, undulating moans had long since faded. Everything had returned to a deathly silence. Only the watery streaks left on the clean slab of stone proved that someone had once been there.
...
「On the bustling streets.」
Su Shenyun linked her arm through Luo Xiu's, as sweet as a couple head over heels in love. It was only ten o'clock at night. Su Shenyun didn't want to go back so early and wanted Luo Xiu to accompany her on a shopping trip, an offer he couldn't refuse.
"By the way, where did you just take me?"
Luo Xiu said, "The Land of Lawlessness."
"The Land of Lawlessness?" Su Shenyun was stunned. "You mean the legendary Secret Realm that supposedly disappeared over a thousand years ago?"
Luo Xiu nodded. "Strictly speaking, it's not a Secret Realm that formed naturally on Earth, but it's basically the same thing."
"I see. And your eye... can you use it to freely enter and exit the Land of Lawlessness?"
"Yeah."
"..."
As they passed a lingerie store, Su Shenyun suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She shook Luo Xiu's arm pitifully. "You tore my old ones, so you have to buy me new ones."
A bitter expression instantly appeared on Luo Xiu's face. "A big guy like me going into that kind of store... Is that really a good idea?"
"Quit your griping! I don't care!" she pouted. "I've always worn this brand, and this is their only boutique on this street. Hurry up and buy me new ones."
Helpless, Luo Xiu had no choice but to brace himself and follow Su Shenyun into the store.
As Su Shenyun picked out her lingerie, Luo Xiu nearly had a nosebleed several times. But in the end, he managed to survive the ordeal.
Su Shenyun took Luo Xiu's hand and pulled him to the checkout counter.
"You promised to buy me new ones. Hurry up and pay."
Luo Xiu shook his head in resignation and took out his phone to scan the code and pay.
"Luo Xiu?!"
Just then, a startled cry came from nearby.
Hearing the voice, Luo Xiu froze. He turned to look, and his eyes widened in shock.
He saw Lin Xiyue, her belly large with child, standing to the side with Zhang Cui. It looked as if the mother-daughter pair were also about to enter the store to buy lingerie.
