Perhaps Gu Qianmeng really wanted to increase her intimacy with her, so she kept holding her hand during the game of chess, which made her feel embarrassed to leave early.

She discovered that except for when Gu Qianmeng was talking to the system, she could not hear Gu Qianmeng's thoughts at other times, so the room was silent throughout the entire game.

Yu Miaoyi's enthusiasm only lasts for three minutes. After playing another game, she waved her hand and went back to sleep.

Gu Qianmeng and Xie Yanshu continued to the next game.

Xie Yanshu praised: "Qianmeng, I didn't expect your chess skills to be so steady and delicate."

As the saying goes, a person's chess style is like his personality. Gu Qianmeng is only in her twenties, but she can remain calm in the face of his relentless pressure. Even in a situation with no room for maneuver, she does not show any impatience and forges her way out of a dead end.

Gu Qianmeng smiled shyly: "I have to thank you very much, big brother. I just learned a few things while watching the game next to you. Thank you, big brother, for your superb chess skills. It's a pity that I can't comprehend it thoroughly and only learn the basics."

Xie Yanshu smiled cheerfully: "How difficult is that? I will teach you later."

Shen Zhaozhao, who was completely ignored at the side: "..." Is this the treatment of a supporting actress?

She looked around and found Chu Yu leaning on the chair, motionless, seemingly sleeping soundly.

He actually fell asleep like this. He must be very tired.

Her right hand was still held by Gu Qianmeng. She didn't want to disrupt this peaceful time, so she could only gently put her elbow on the table, support her chin with her left hand, and empty her mind.

Finally, when they finished and left, Shen Zhaozhao yawned, then got up and prepared to go back to sleep.

When she passed by Chu Yu, she saw that he had his eyes closed and was sleeping soundly, and she suddenly felt like teasing him.

After looking around, she finally found a cockroach. She condensed spiritual power with her fingers, and the cockroach suddenly floated in the air. She hit Chu Yu.

Suddenly, a spiritual force struck her face, and there was a sudden weight on her head.

Shen Zhaozhao raised his hand to take the thing off his head and saw that it was a cockroach, and a dead one at that.

She quickly threw it to the ground: "You are pretending to be asleep!"

Chu Yu had opened his dark eyes and stared at her, smiling gently and harmlessly: "I didn't say I fell asleep, it's just that Senior Sister is self-righteous."

Shen Zhaozhao failed to gain anything and could only swallow his anger with a look of resentment on his face.

Chu Yu sat up straight, looked at her and said, "If Senior Sister is unhappy, there is no need to take it out on me."

Shen Zhaozhao's eyes widened. What did she mean by taking it out on him? She just wanted to play a trick on him.

Besides, how could she be unhappy?

Seeing her dissatisfaction, Chu Yu stared at her with his dark pupils: "Did I say something wrong?"

Ever since Gu Qianmeng and Xie Yanshu started playing chess, Shen Zhaozhao looked quite resentful. Even though he was unhappy, he was unwilling to leave.

Since you don't want Xie Yanshu to be with other women, why bother pretending to be generous and saying that you want to give your position to Gu Qianmeng?

Even at the beginning, when she saw two women next to Xie Yanshu, she said she wanted to sit next to him. Was she trying to make Xie Yanshu jealous?

Unfortunately, Shen Zhaozhao miscalculated, and he didn't want to become a tool for her jealousy.

Shen Zhaozhao had no idea that he was thinking so much, she just thought that he was having another intermittent attack.

She took a deep breath and nodded her head: "I'm not unhappy. If there is anything that can make me unhappy, it's what you put in my sea of ​​consciousness."

Chu Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at her, remaining silent.

Seeing that there was no one around, thinking of the problem he had been worried about, Shen Zhaozhao squatted beside him and asked tentatively: "Tell me, will there be any harm if Yu Ruyi enters my body?"

Not to mention that the peacock wanted to kill her and take away the jade ruyi. She was also worried about the impact of this unknown thing entering her body.

Chu Yu sneered: "With your level of cultivation, it is Yu Ruyi who will be affected."

The ancient magic weapon is extremely evil. Before it recognizes its master, it carries a strong evil spirit and murderous intent.

But after the magic weapon recognizes its master, the effect it can play is closely related to the host's thoughts and cultivation.

Shen Zhaozhao's cultivation was not high, and the magic weapon was suppressed in her body, posing no threat and becoming useless.

What she worried about most was that others would discover that Yu Ruyi was in her body, causing her to lose her soul.

Especially those hypocritical cultivators in the immortal sect who are always talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality, if they knew the existence of Yu Ruyi, no one knows what they would do.

Seeing that Chu Yu seemed to have some understanding of Yu Ruyi, Shen Zhaozhao didn't care about his sarcastic tone. She smiled and bowed to him.

"My smart and wise junior brother, do you know any other way to get it out? Otherwise, it will harm my life!"

Chu Yu glanced at her and said, "Why don't you ask your smarter and wiser senior brother?"

Shen Zhaozhao curled her lips. How could she tell everyone about such a life-threatening matter?

Chu Yu looked at her reaction, raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't trust him?"

Shen Zhaozhao shook her head. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Xie Yanshu, but she felt that the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Chu Yu lazily leaned back in his chair and said nonchalantly, "Then why are you asking me? Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you?"

Shen Zhaozhao stared at him eagerly and said seriously, "I don't think you will hurt me. I believe you."

She appeared calm on the surface, but she was actually a little panicked inside.

Although Chu Yu said he would not kill her, she was also afraid that he would lose control from time to time, so it was necessary to make him happy first.

I don’t know if what she said really worked, but Chu Yu actually laughed.

Come to think of it, if someone showed trust in her, she would definitely be happy.

Shen Zhaozhao took advantage of the victory and continued: "So, is there any solution?"

Chu Yu nodded as if it was a matter of fact.

Shen Zhaozhao's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, "How to do it?"

Chu Yu glanced at her meaningfully and said, "I just agree with what you just said."

Shen Zhaozhao: “…”Okay, great.

She saw the mockery in Chu Yu's eyes, he was just trying to make her happy.

Luzhou County is geographically located in the south, and even in the cold winter, it is very warm, even a little hot.

Shen Zhaozhao's zodiac sign is fire, and his body temperature is higher than that of ordinary people. He is very afraid of heat, so the first thing he did after getting off the boat was to take off his cloak.

Yichen Cloth Manor was located at the end of the street. After they passed through a narrow alley, they saw a large manor with four large golden characters "Yichen Cloth Manor" written on the plaque.

The owner of the clothing store said that her second brother's cloth shop was very big and the whole family lived in it. Now it seems that it is indeed very big. The entire manor occupies most of this place. There are no houses nearby, and it is very secluded.

Xie Yanshu walked to the front door, picked up the toad-shaped door knocker on the door and knocked three times. Soon the door was pushed open from the inside to the outside. A weathered face appeared behind the door. He hunched over and asked, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

Although the visitor's clothes were not fancy, they were decent and better than the servant's. He should be the mansion's housekeeper.

Xie Yanshu stepped forward, bowed, and replied respectfully: "We are invited by the sister of your master to catch monsters. Please tell the master that this is a letter written by his sister." He took out a bamboo tube containing the letter from his arms and handed it to the housekeeper.

The butler glanced at them, took the bamboo tube, and said expressionlessly: "Please wait a moment." After that, he limped in to report. Perhaps because of his inconvenient legs, he stumbled on the way.

Xie Yanshu looked at Shen Zhaozhao with a questioning look.

Shen Zhaozhao shook her head, indicating that she did not smell any evil spirit. She was extremely sensitive to evil spirits, and if she did not smell any, it meant that there should be no problem here.

The butler quickly limped back and invited them into the mansion, his face still expressionless: "Masters, please come in! The master is waiting for you in the front hall."

A middle-aged man in luxurious silk clothes was sitting in the hall. Upon seeing them coming, he hurriedly stood up to greet them: "My fellow immortal masters, you have come from afar. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I am so disrespectful."

The proprietress's younger brother is named Ma Jingquan. He has a mother, a wife, three concubines, three sons and four daughters. The eldest son is sixteen years old, and the youngest pair of children are just four years old.

In fact, he had four concubines, but one of them died of illness after giving birth to the eldest son.

When Ma Jingquan hosted a dinner party, Shen Zhaozhao met his wife, concubine and seven children.

People often say that one should marry a virtuous wife, but with Mrs. Ma Jingquan, it is the opposite. Mrs. Ma is a real beauty with an extremely charming appearance. When she looks at people, her eyes are affectionate and her every move is full of charm. In particular, she has a plump figure and wears revealing clothes. When she serves food, her snow-white cleavage is exposed, which makes Shen Zhaozhao blush.

Shen Zhaozhao secretly glanced at the expressions of others and found that except for Chu Yu, everyone had red ears and lowered their heads to eat, not daring to look directly at Mrs. Ma.

She followed Chu Yu's gaze and found that he was staring at Aunt Sun feeding the two children.

Although the concubine Aunt Sun was also very beautiful, she seemed a little dull in comparison with Madam Ma. However, she had a gentle and pleasant temperament and a unique charm. She gave birth to twins, a son and a daughter, for Ma Jingquan.

According to Ma Jingquan, he also has a concubine, Zhang, who has just turned eighteen and is rather timid. She is currently serving his bedridden mother, so she did not come to dinner.

There was also a concubine named An who was pregnant and about to give birth. She was not feeling well today and did not come to eat.
