Chapter 123 Huang Rong: My chest feels tight, can you help me...?

Fires broke out everywhere in Bianliang City, and chaos ensued. Many wealthy families locked their gates, and their servants and soldiers, armed with weapons, stood guard on the walls. The common people were panicked and helpless. Some were trying to put out the fires, some were crying out in despair, and some were completely bewildered. Everywhere, there was "sorrow" and "panic".

However, the southern part of the city was much more peaceful because the Quanzhen disciples used killing to quell the chaos.

In the courtyard of a residential house, several male servants stood guard at the gate, holding sticks and leaning against the wall. Although they looked tired, they still tried to stay alert to prevent any foolish thugs from jumping over the wall and entering.

The main hall was brightly lit. Li Mochou was comfortably soaking in a large bathtub she had bought. Two pretty maids had a clear division of labor: one massaged Li Mochou's body, while the other placed peeled and cut fruits on a plate. When Li Mochou opened her mouth, the maid would pick up a piece and feed it to her. Occasionally, the maid would pick up a glass of ice cream, scoop out a spoonful of sweet milk, and feed it to Li Mochou.

Li Mochou, feeling comfortable, squinted her eyes.

When Wei Wu entered, he deliberately stopped the maids from bowing. He silently walked to Li Mochou and seamlessly took her place as the maid who was massaging Li Mochou raised her hand.

Li Mochou was, after all, a martial artist. The moment Wei Wu touched her, she immediately realized the difference between herself and a maid. Her eyelids twitched, and she instinctively wanted to grab his wrist. However, after realizing it was Wei Wu's hand, she placed her raised hand on the edge of the bathtub, lifted her body slightly, and snorted, saying, "Finished so quickly?"

"Bianjing City isn't very big to begin with. If I hadn't run into a few interesting guys, I probably would have returned even sooner."

Wei Wu smoothed Li Mochou's silky hair and placed it outside the bathtub. His fingers slid down her slender neck to her rounded shoulders, rhythmically pressing acupoints. A light pink blush quickly appeared on her fair and delicate skin, and even her peach blossom eyes narrowed more like a lazy cat enjoying its owner's caress in the afternoon.

"Splash—"

The sound of water splashed, and the petals on the water's surface drifted away from Li Mochou along with the ripples, replacing them with a heart-pounding massage that made the maids blush and made Li Mochou's heart race.

Li Mochou sank a little deeper into the water, her face flushing "embarrassed." Sniffing Wei Wu's hair hanging in front of her face, her mind became dizzy, and she suddenly blurted out, "I'm having my period today."

Wei Wu's hands didn't stop; not only his hair fell onto Li Mochou's face, but his forehead pressed against hers. His eyes were bright, and the anger in them had been completely dispelled by Li Mochou's words.

Li Mochou shrank back guiltily, avoiding Wei Wu's gaze. However, her weakness was in Wei Wu's hands, so she could only force a smile and say, "We can always try another way. Why don't you go find Huang Rong?"

Li Mochou didn't actually think it was a big deal for her man to find other women. In the original novel, she said that if Lu Zhanyuan was willing to admit his mistake, she could still accept He Yuanjun.

She was jealous because her man wanted other women and not her!

Wei Wu thought for a moment and said, "Let's finish strong, I'll help you out first."

"Don't----"

Li Mochou just wanted to take a nice bath, and at the same time, she completely misunderstood Wei Wu's "help".

She thought Wei Wu was going to help her drain her fluids, but in reality, Wei Wu took out a Bodhi snake king gall from the secluded paradise!

As Li Mochou opened her mouth, it slipped smoothly into her mouth.

Li Mochou had gotten used to eating snake gallbladders these days. Even a snake king's gallbladder twice the size of her own was swallowed smoothly. Immediately afterward, a bitter taste, enough to make one faint and then be woken up by the bitterness, rose from her stomach.

"vomit!"

Li Mochou couldn't help but gag, quickly taking the ice cream from the maid and gulping it down. At the same time, dark impurities began to appear on her fair, alabaster-like skin. As her internal strength increased, the bathwater filled with flower petals began to stink.

"This is the gall of a snake king, a wonderful thing that can cleanse the body and marrow, transform one's body, and improve one's physical constitution. It's normal to have some side effects."

"Since you like taking baths, you can take a longer bath tonight."

Wei Wu had already slipped away from the bathtub while feeding Li Mochou the snake king's gall, so he only encountered Li Mochou's resentful gaze before smiling and quickly leaving the room.

There were no lights in the east wing. Huang Rong opened the window and sat by the window, looking at the courtyard. A loquat tree blocked most of the moonlight, and fine silver frost dotted her face, making her bewildered eyes sparkle with silver light. Her lively oval face appeared even more desolate.

She was wearing a pale yellow floral dress with a dark collar. Because she was sitting sideways at the table, only her dark hair, which fell over her shoulders and swayed with her figure, could be seen from the outside.

Wei Wu did not conceal his figure and strolled over to Huang Rong.

Huang Rong was startled awake when he reached out and picked up a stray lock of her hair that had fallen beside her ear. She pulled her hand away from the table, took out half of the green jade staff, and her wrist was stopped by Wei Wu.

"it's me."

Upon hearing Wei Wu's voice, Huang Rong's wariness did not dissipate; instead, she remained tense and resistant. With her left hand restrained, she took the jade staff with her right hand and attempted to force Wei Wu's hand away by sweeping half of it horizontally.

Wei Wu found it strange. Huang Rong wasn't like this before. Although she wasn't exactly proactive, she didn't resist excessive physical contact. Why was she so resistant today?

He released Huang Rong.

Huang Rong immediately got up and retreated into the house.

Wei Wu also jumped in through the window, and casually retracted the fork that had been propping open the window, immediately closing it and plunging the unlit room into darkness.

This darkness might be a problem for ordinary people, but it was nothing for martial artists. Wei Wu could clearly see Huang Rong standing by the bedside table, her green jade staff hanging by her legs. The expression on her beautiful oval face was indescribably complex, and the emotions in her bright eyes were even more complicated and difficult to understand.

"Your performance today—has surprised me greatly." Wei Wu's voice was slow. He sensed something unusual in Huang Rong's reaction, so he didn't press her too hard.

Huang Rong's lips turned pale as she pursed them. Upon hearing Wei Wu's words, she simply took a deep breath, tossed the green jade staff aside, and said softly, "I was just thinking about some things from the past."

"Guo Jing?" Wei Wu asked.

Huang Rong was silent for a moment, then said, "Mm."

"He has now arrived in Mongolia, regained the trust of Ögedei and Tolui, and reclaimed his former army and tribe."

Wei Wu revealed all the information he had obtained that day without reservation, hoping to gain some small advantages in return. However, it seemed that he had made a great gain.

A bitter smile appeared on Huang Rong's face. "Ögedei and Tolui are not fools. Even if they have a childhood friendship, they would not so easily trust a Han Chinese who has defected, unless someone vouches for him."

Hua Zheng!

Huang Rong thought of the Mongolian woman with eyes like water, skin as white as mutton fat, and a lovely appearance, and slowly closed her eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, she had already reached out and gripped her belt, her voice trembling as she said, "I... I feel a tightness in my chest."

"Could you rub it for me?"
