It was already past 11:45 PM, and Jiang Xi had just taken off his outer garment and gotten into bed.

Today she was sent to move flowers and plants all morning, but when it was time for lunch, she was ostracized by the other servants, who spilled her food on the ground.

In the afternoon, Granny Liu asked her to wash the clothes of all the lower-ranking eunuchs in the mansion.

After she finally finished washing, a second-class maid named Bailu kicked her to the ground and accused her of not washing properly.

Jiang Xi was furious. She picked up a washing mallet and started fighting with Bai Lu. The other maids rushed over to intervene and take sides.

Jiang Xi used a washing mallet to beat him up, getting revenge for what happened at noon.

Several maids had bruises on their faces, with bruises on their foreheads from her beatings.

Bai Lu fared even worse; she was hit several times by Jiang Xi with a washing mallet.

Jiang Xi even scratched his face with her long fingernails, and he probably won't be able to face anyone for the next few days.

However, Jiang Xi herself didn't fare well either, as her head and body were covered in bruises.

He was even punished for this, and was forced to kneel for two hours by Granny Liu.

However, she didn't regret it. She only thought while kneeling as punishment that she wished her body were stronger so she wouldn't be at a disadvantage in a fight!

As soon as Bei Ying arrived, she ordered Granny Liu to chase the other maids out, and then she went in to drag people out.

As autumn drew to a close, the maids were all chased out of their beds one by one.

They stood in the courtyard, thinly dressed, shivering from the cold.

"What's wrong with the leaders of Beijing Film Academy? Why are they kicking us out in the middle of the night?"

"It must be that Jiang Xi who did something wrong again. She's such a jinx!"

Meanwhile, Jiang Xi, whom everyone called a jinx, was sitting on the bed wrapped in a blanket.

After understanding the purpose of the visit from Beijing Film Academy, he arrogantly uttered two words!

"Don't go!"

Originally, it was Huo Jingxuan himself who said she was not allowed to touch him anymore!

Now they're going back on their word. What do they take her for?

Bei Ying scratched her head in frustration: "Seventh Princess, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If you don't agree, don't blame me for offending you!"

As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers, intending to press Jiang Xi's pressure points, then carry her over and throw her into the prince's bedroom!

"you dare!"

Jiang Xi saw through Bei Ying's intentions and raised her face to threaten him.

"Let Huo Jingxuan come here by himself!"

"here?"

The Beijing Film Academy student looked shocked.

This is the servants' quarters. His prince is of noble birth and wealth. How could he possibly be in the servants' quarters with the Seventh Princess... cough cough, well...

"You also complain about the poor conditions here? Then if I save your prince, you have to promise me one thing!"

Jiang Xi took advantage of the chaos to rob.

"what's up?"

"Help me bring back my personal maid, Chun Tao!"

"This……"

The Beijing Film Academy looked troubled.

"If you don't want it, then forget it. But if you force yourself on me, I'll go around saying that your prince forcibly took a woman from the common people and ruin his reputation!"

Jiang Xi lay down and tried to go back to sleep.

Bei Ying had no choice but to grit her teeth and say, "Fine, she's just a maid. I'm sure the prince won't blame her. Come with me now!"

As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Xi off the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Hey, wait a minute, I haven't put on my shoes yet!"

Jiang Xi was hurriedly led by Bei Ying to Huo Jingxuan's bedroom, pushed inside, and the door slammed shut.

The bedchamber was dark, with no lamps lit, and only rustling sounds could be heard from a distance.

Jiang Xi was actually a little guilty at this moment. She was afraid that Huo Jingxuan would beat her half to death and throw her out in a fit of anger.

After all, a man like him who would rather suppress his desires than seek release from a woman is probably keeping his chastity for Yang Xuerou.

However, it seems he has no morals left to uphold; she has already taken advantage of him completely!

Thinking this, Jiang Xi tentatively walked towards the figure in the darkness.

"The Beijing Film Academy sent me. If you don't need it, I can leave... Ah!"

Before Jiang Xi could finish speaking, her wrist was grabbed and she was pulled forward, bumping into a hot body, and both of them fell onto the soft jade bed behind them.

"Uncle, you really can't wait!"

The cool moonlight streaming in through the window allowed Jiang Xi to clearly see Huo Jingxuan's face, which she was pressing down on.

Huo Jingxuan's face was flushed an unnatural dark red, his body trembled slightly, and his thin lips were tightly pressed together.

His already sharp features were taut, and his narrow eyes seemed to be spitting fire as he stared at Jiang Xi.

Like a leopard that has caught its prey, ready to bite through her throat at any moment.

Just as Jiang Xi was thinking this, Huo Jingxuan's burning lips moved closer to her neck.

The girl had a long, fair neck with a beautiful curve, and when his lips touched hers, it sent a chill down his spine.

Because Jiang Xi realized in the next second that he wasn't kissing, but nibbling...

The sharp teeth pierced the skin and flesh, bringing a sharp pain.

"don't want……"

Jiang Xi tried to push away the man who was leaning on her shoulder.

But the man was surprisingly strong, and his sharp teeth pierced through the flesh.

The intense pain made Jiang Xi frown. By the time she realized that Huo Jingxuan was biting her, he had already completed all the steps and lifted his head off her shoulder.

The man had deep-set eyes and brows, his sword-like eyebrows slightly upturned, and thin lips stained with blood, giving him an unusually cold and sinister appearance.

"This is what I'm returning to you!"

His hoarse, deep voice conveyed the pleasure of revenge.

Jiang Xi looked down and realized that Huo Jingxuan had left a tooth mark on her left shoulder that was exactly the same as his!

So he remembered everything!

Jiang Xi relaxed her brows, smiled brightly, and gently pushed Huo Jingxuan in the chest, causing him to fall back onto the large bed behind her.

"I did much more than just that for my royal uncle!"

As she spoke, she leaned down and offered her fragrant lips.

Huo Jingxuan tried desperately to resist, but he couldn't overcome the poison taking effect in his body...

They indulged in passion all night, until dawn broke.

Huo Jingxuan stood by the bed, looking refreshed, and straightened his clothes.

Behind him, on the messy bed, lay Jiang Xi, her clothes disheveled and her body covered in marks.

Jiang Xi wrapped herself in a thin silk quilt, her eyebrows and eyes radiating a relaxed spring-like charm.

She lay on the bed, propping her chin up and gazing at Huo Jingxuan's tall and imposing back.

No wonder he's the man she's had her eye on since childhood; he's impeccable in both physical strength and appearance!

But... if only he hadn't killed his elder brother!

She recalled that refined and elegant man who came to discuss matters with her, and his last words were...

"I know this is extremely dangerous, but as your brother, I cannot let you remain forever trapped in the mire!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xi's gaze towards Huo Jingxuan instantly turned into a mixture of love and hate.

Huo Jingxuan turned his head at this moment, startling Jiang Xi, who quickly lowered her eyes.

When all expression fades and the expression lifts again, only a deep, infatuated look remains.

"..."

Huo Jingxuan seemed to want to say something, but then the sound of an announcement from the Beijing Film Academy came from outside the door.

"Your Highness, Miss Yang has arrived!"

The "Miss Yang" mentioned by the Beijing Film Academy naturally refers to Yang Xuerou!
