Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

At this moment, Shen Ye, who was holding Ji Ruxue, patted her slender waist. The next second, the girl took the initiative to bring her cherry lips to her mouth, completely unlike her cold and aloof demeanor when they first met.

"Old Li, I'm so sorry!"

Biting Ji Ruxue's sweet lips, Shen Ye thought to himself silently.

……

The next day, Shen Ye woke up early.

Looking at the woman still fast asleep beside him, he carefully withdrew his arm, preparing to return to his room before dawn.

However, both the Empress and Ji Ruxue were skilled in martial arts, and no matter how carefully he got out of bed, he still managed to wake them.

"It's not even dawn yet."

The Empress glanced out the window; the first rays of dawn had not yet appeared. She then forcibly placed Shen Ye's arm, which she had just pulled away, behind her neck and comfortably rested it on her head.

"Let me sleep a little longer. I'm exhausted from traveling these past few days," she added.

"What's so hard about riding in a carriage..." Shen Ye curled his lips. He had seen the Empress's carriage, and the cushions used to absorb shocks were so high that he could sink into them completely when he lay down.

"Oh well, the journey is tiring anyway. Ask Xue'er if the journey is tiring." The Empress threw the question to Ji Ruxue.

Ji Ruxue was taken aback by what she heard, but she didn't know what to say or whose side to take. She glanced at Shen Ye and the Empress, and finally could only sit on the bed with a smile, pretending not to have heard.

“She’s your maid, so she must be riding a horse. She’s definitely working harder than you. What are you comparing yourself to her for?” Shen Ye pinched the Empress’s cheek, trying to get her up, but the Empress was unmoved. Instead, she turned her body to the side, showing him the side of her face that was being pinched, as if to say, “Pinch me all you want.” This made him very helpless.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Shen Ye grabbed a handful of the Empress's hair and tried to tease her nose with the tips of her hair. Whether it was natural or due to post-natal care, her hair was incredibly smooth and felt more comfortable than silk. Holding it in his hand, Shen Ye didn't want to do anything else for a moment.

After thinking for a moment, he had no choice but to say, "If you leave when it's light, your subordinates who come to help you get up will see you."

The Empress didn't even open her eyes, covering her head with the blanket, and said in a muffled voice, "Ordinary people don't have the opportunity to serve me. Only the Nine Heavens Holy Maiden and Sister Xue'er are qualified. Now one of them is sleeping here, and the other Holy Maidens also know about our relationship. What's there to be afraid of? Who dares to say anything?"

Very good, very direct, very domineering.

But Shen Ye wasn't actually worried about being seen by her people; she just didn't want Lu Linxuan and the others to see them. After all, the two of them had been fighting fiercely yesterday, and now they were sleeping in the same room today, which seemed a bit too unbelievable.

Moreover, Lu Linxuan's situation is difficult to explain. She's a jealous person; although she might not necessarily throw a tantrum, she could easily become sullen for a few days.

Thinking of this, Shen Ye had no choice but to use his trump card again. He released the Empress's hair and reached his hands under the covers...

Before long, he got up smoothly, while the empress, her face flushed, lay on the bed watching him get dressed and leave the room, her face full of anger.

As soon as he left, the Empress lost her sleepiness. She sat on the bed with a displeased expression, smoothed her hair that was scattered on her chest, and then said to Ji Ruxue, "At daybreak, go and call Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, and have them go to Shen Lang's room to help him wash and change."

"Empress..." Ji Ruxue had just opened her mouth when the Empress glared at her, and she immediately changed her mind: "Sister, let me go alone."

Ji Ruxue knew the Nine Heavens Saintess's personality perfectly well. Sending them to serve Shen Ye while he washed and changed would be like sending lambs to the slaughter; anything could happen.

Of course, the sheep here refers to Shen Ye, while the tiger refers to Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian.

Upon hearing this, the Empress knew what she was thinking. She smiled faintly and said, "You will be a master in the future. Just let the servants do whatever they need to do. Besides, even if he wins over all the Nine Heavenly Saintess, it will be their good fortune. Don't take this small matter to heart. Be more magnanimous."

"Yes, sister." Ji Ruxue thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

……

(I've revised it twice... I really can't write anything anymore, I'm so frustrated, so many parts of the revisions don't make sense anymore)

(Li Xingyun once said that when it comes to picking up women, one should do it like Han Xin commanding his troops—the more the merrier.)

Chapter 414! If you can't escape, then enjoy it!

……

Back in his room, Shen Ye lay down on the bed fully clothed and pretended to sleep, intending to catch up on some sleep before dawn.

To be honest, although I was surrounded by a soft and fragrant woman last night, I didn't sleep well. After all, no man can sleep soundly in that kind of situation, and no one is an exception.

He dozed off for over an hour, and then it was dawn. Just then, Shen Ye, who had been dozing, opened his eyes. He heard footsteps coming from the doorway, but it wasn't Lu Linxuan. The footsteps were mixed up, indicating that there were two people.

Then, a conversation that was deliberately kept in hushed tones could be heard outside.

"Sister, try knocking on the door and see if the son-in-law is awake."

"Sister, why didn't you knock on the door? If the son-in-law hadn't woken up yet, and I knocked and woke him up, he might get angry and make things difficult for me later!"

"They probably won't give you a hard time. Your little sister is so pretty, maybe your future husband will punish you by making you his slave, hehe..."

"I think it's you, sister, who wants to be a slave to your son-in-law. Who was it that stayed up all night last night, constantly telling me how domineering and handsome the new son-in-law is?"

"Little girl, you dare to tease your older sister like that? I'll pinch you!"

"Sister, spare me! I was wrong..."

Hearing the sounds of laughter and playfulness outside the door, Shen Ye was taken aback for a moment, then realized the identities of the two people outside: Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, a pair of sisters among the Nine Heavens Saintess.

However, what surprised him even more was that they actually called him son-in-law. It seemed that the Empress had already confirmed his identity within the Illusionary Sound Pavilion!

"Sounds pretty cool," Shen Ye thought to himself, but he was also a little curious about what they were here for. Were they here to serve him?

Thinking of this, he coughed lightly and said in a lazy tone, "Who's out there, disturbing people's sleep so early in the morning? They have no sense of public decency at all."

As soon as these words were spoken, the sounds of playful banter at the doorway quieted down, followed by a charming and gentle voice.

“Young master, your servants Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian have been ordered by the Empress to come and help you get up and change your clothes. Please allow us sisters to come in.”

As expected, the Empress sent them to serve him... Shen Ye shook his head with amusement, but did not let them in. Instead, he said, "No need, you can go back."

"Huh? Why?" Miao Chengtian was taken aback. Why wasn't the son-in-law playing by the rules? Shouldn't he let them in and take their service for granted?

"There's no reason." Shen Ye frowned, afraid that if he let the two sisters in, Lu Linxuan and the others would see them.

Although he figured out one thing after returning to his room, since the Empress could control Ji Ruxue so well, he could also appease Lu Linxuan, but the premise was that he had to give her a mental preparation, and he hadn't figured out how to bring it up.

At this moment, Miao Chengtian's voice rang out again: "Does the young master think that we servants are not worthy?"

"Of course not," Shen Ye said helplessly.

"If that's the case, then why doesn't the son-in-law want us servants to serve him?" Miao Chengtian's voice sounded aggrieved.

Shen Ye sighed and said, "I told you there's no reason, you should go back."

After he finished speaking, it became quiet outside again. Just when he thought the two sisters had left, Miao Chengtian's voice rang out again, this time with a sob in it.

“Sister, since the son-in-law won’t let us sisters go in, we have no way to report back to the Empress. If we go back, we will definitely be punished by the Empress. We might as well kneel here. That way, the Empress won’t punish us too much when she finds out.”

"Sister is right... We servants have such a hard life... Waaah..."

Hearing the conversation and what sounded like suppressed sobbing outside the door, Shen Ye felt a headache coming on. How did things get like this?

To avoid gossip and to prevent the two sisters from being punished by the Empress, Shen Ye had no choice but to get up and open the door.

However, as soon as the door opened, Shen Ye saw a scene that left him dumbfounded. Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian were no longer kneeling at the door. They were still standing there properly, holding their toiletries. Moreover, they were not crying. Instead, they were laughing. Especially the younger sister, Xuan Jingtian, who was covering her mouth while laughing, trying her best not to laugh out loud. That was how the sound that seemed like crying came from earlier.

Seeing Shen Ye staring at them with a blank expression, Xuan Jingtian tried hard to suppress her laughter, then said to Miao Chengtian, "Sister, you see, I told you the young master wouldn't be so heartless, he must have been shy just now!"

"Your method is still the best."

Miao Chengtian smiled and nodded, then slipped under Shen Ye's outstretched arms as he held the door open and entered the room, saying, "Little sister, come in quickly, don't let the young master lock you out."

"Hey!" Xuan Jingtian responded and crawled under Shen Ye's other arm.

At this moment, Shen Ye came to his senses and found that the two sisters had already entered his room. He could only sigh inwardly, "As expected of the Nine Heavens Saintess of the Illusionary Sound Pavilion, they really know how to act."

He then slammed the door shut.

Since there's no escaping it, he might as well enjoy it... he thought to himself.

……

Perhaps because Ji Ruxue had returned, Lu Linxuan did not come this morning. This made Shen Ye, who was enjoying the personal services of Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, relax and become bolder. He began to direct the two sisters to massage and pound his back.

The two sisters naturally obeyed their new son-in-law's orders. One knelt beside him and massaged his legs, while the other pressed against his back and massaged his back, giving him a taste of the extravagant life of an ancient landlord.

Just as he was feeling smug, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Ji Ruxue walked in. The three people in the room were startled, but they relaxed after seeing that it was Ji Ruxue.

Watching Shen Ye enjoy the massage services from the two holy maidens, Ji Ruxue tried her best to maintain her facial expression and not let her jealousy show. Then she said to Shen Ye, "Brother Shen, breakfast is ready. Shall we go downstairs to eat together? Or should we have it delivered to your room?"

"No need, I'll go down myself in a bit... You two Holy Maidens, you can go down with Xue'er first." Shen Ye said, waving his hand at Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian.

Ji Ruxue knew he couldn't dine with them, so she nodded and left the room with Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian.

After they left, Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He sat for a while longer before going out.

As he went downstairs, he encountered Lu Linxuan, who was waiting for him at the top of the stairs. When she saw him come out of the room alone, the girl's eyes lit up, and she quickly ran to his side and hugged his arm.

"Brother Shen, let's go downstairs for breakfast."

Shen Ye hummed in agreement, but did not break free from the soft embrace of Lu Linxuan's arms, which were deliberately pressed against her chest, and went downstairs with her.

The courtyard of the inn was already full. Besides Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan, there were four or five tables of passing travelers. The rest were all people from Huanyinfang. This made the other tables of travelers look at them frequently, since the disciples of Huanyinfang were all women, and few of them were bad-looking.

"Brother Shen, Junior Sister, over here."

Seeing Shen Ye and Lu Linxuan come down, Li Xingyun stood up and waved to them.

"Humph!"

Just as the two were walking over, they heard a cold snort. Shen Ye turned his head and saw the Empress, who had changed back into men's clothing. She was sitting with Ji Ruxue, and they were both staring at him with some jealousy.

Don't be fooled by her morning pronouncements telling Ji Ruxue to be more magnanimous and not to be jealous of the servants. That's because the Nine Heavens Holy Maiden is one of her own and she can control her. But Lu Linxuan isn't. She can manage her own people, but she can't manage Lu Linxuan, an outsider. Seeing the two of them in such an intimate pose, she naturally couldn't help herself.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed by their stares, Shen Ye could only smile apologetically at them before sitting down at the table with Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan, following Lu Linxuan.
