Seeing that the two were busy chatting and didn't notice him, Zhao Ke crawled out of the alley tremblingly. Unexpectedly, just after he took a step, a dagger shot towards him as if it had eyes and penetrated the gap between his fingers.

He was so frightened that he dared not move. He raised his fingers tremblingly, somewhat incredulous.

A pleasant voice came, but it sounded like a ghost to his ears: "Guess why I spared your life?"

Zhao Ke crawled and turned around, kowtowed in the direction of Shen Mian, trembling, his lips still trembling: "Auntie, it is my fault that I did not recognize the great man. Auntie is magnanimous, please let me go."

He knocked his head again and again, his nose and tears mixed together. Shen Mian frowned in disdain and said with a sigh, "You can't even see who you offended. It's better to gouge out your eyes."

Zhao Ke's body trembled, and he kowtowed to Pei Ye unwillingly: "Pei Ye...I was wrong before, I shouldn't have said that to you, I was blinded by greed, please let me go this time!"

Pei Ye didn't want to pay attention to him. He buried his head and leaned weakly on Shen Mian's shoulder, with his body center of gravity leaning towards Shen Mian.

Zhao Ke kowtowed several times, cursing Pei Ye in his heart: Wasn't he full of energy when he was talking to him just now! He was never so submissive when I beat him before, you bastard, you are so dead after hugging a big guy!

But the two of them didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to stop. Although he was dissatisfied, his head was now in the hands of the mysterious girl, and he really didn't dare to act rashly.

Where did Pei Ye find such a powerful sister!

Pei Ye didn't say anything, but Shen Mian answered for him: "Okay, two lives, plus you knocked for so long, it can barely be used to pay for your life."

Pei Ye was stunned, and looked up at Shen Mian blankly.

Zhao Ke was secretly delighted and kowtowed a few more times: "Thank you very much, Auntie. Thank you very much, Auntie!"

Just when he thought he had escaped, Shen Mian changed the subject: "However, you have bullied our Aye so many times in the past, and you deserve to die a thousand times. But after this time, you still have a thousand reasons to die. We are kind-hearted, so we will spare your life. You can follow me to Yifeng Pavilion, which can be regarded as a final contribution to those in need."

Shen Mian's words took several turns, and Zhao Ke was terrified. When he heard the last sentence, he raised his head in panic: "You can't do this to me! I am the son of the Shangshu of Cangqi State!"

The girl's calm and nonchalant voice came: "I said, in my eyes, you are just a maggot, nothing more."

Zhao Ke's face turned pale and blue, perhaps because he felt that he could not escape the disaster, or perhaps because his self-esteem had been frustrated to the limit, he suddenly raised his finger and pointed at Pei Ye and said viciously: "Do you think you found a good brother? You don't know him at all! I tell you, he has been entangled with Prince Yu for a long time, and who knows how many people have slept with him! He is a cold-blooded and ruthless Gu Master! He is only obedient to you now because he needs your help. When you are no longer useful, he will ruthlessly look for the next backer!"

"You think he's a good guy! He's just a piece of trash, a piece of dirty stuff! You'll regret it sooner or later!"

Pei Ye's face turned pale in an instant. He leaned against Shen Mian's head and unconsciously moved away. He looked at Shen Mian's expression quietly and carefully, but could only see the undisguised coldness in her eyes.

He heard her sigh softly: "Is it really more convenient to use Du Ya?"

Zhao Ke was still cursing there, when Shen Mian flicked his fingertips and a black pill fell into his mouth. He strained his throat to spit out the pill, but it was in vain.

"Ah...ah..." After a while, he could only utter intermittent monosyllables, his voice was weak and his expression was painful.

Shen Mian smiled with satisfaction, her bright face becoming more and more radiant and charming, but in Zhao Ke's eyes she looked like a ghost.

He watched in horror as Shen Mian came closer and closer with the sword in hand. He fell to the ground and crawled backwards until he reached the wall, with nowhere to hide. When he saw her holding the strange sword high up, he was so frightened that he fainted.

Shen Mian put away his sword: "That's right, it saves me from knocking."

Pei Ye immediately stood up and walked over: "Sister, do you want to drag him over? Let me do it."

"Not in a hurry."

Shen Mian waved his hand and took Zhao Ke into the space under Pei Ye's surprised gaze: "I'll take care of your injury first."

While bandaging Pei Ye, he kept looking at Shen Mian obediently, with a hint of temptation and fear in his eyes.

"What a pity, this green dress looks so good on you."

"Sister, do you like Qing Yi?"

"You look good in it." Shen Mian emphasized, and then said, "But our Aye is good-looking, and he looks good in anything he wears."

Shen Mian stood up and pulled Pei Ye up: "Let's go, we don't know how much he can be sold for."

Pei Ye followed obediently and pulled Shen Mian's sleeves tighter.

"Oh my god, you're still selling yourself with this look!" The man in the pink robe from Yifeng Pavilion pinched his fingers and shouted in a thin voice.

Shen Mian said seriously: "See how much it can be sold for. It's okay as long as it's sold. Although he looks ugly, he might be a good plaything!"

"That makes sense." The man thought for a moment and held up his finger, "Ten taels of silver."

Just this much?

However, Shen Mian didn't expect Zhao Ke to sell it for much money, so he nodded and agreed: "Deal!"

The man handed over the money and ordered someone to carry Zhao Ke inside: "Not only is he ugly, but he also dresses like a nouveau riche. He has no taste. Why don't you take him to dress up and put on more makeup."
