"Li Yan, right? Someone, take him away for a physical examination." Ni Qing said listlessly. A physical examination couldn't really prove whether he was a dutiful virgin or a playboy who often fell into the trap of women.

But as the saying goes, there's no pulse that an experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctor can't detect. Just by placing his hand on the pulse, he can tell if the person has been doing anything shameful lately.

Li Yan was somewhat astonished. He had originally thought that this brainless young lady was just putting on an act for He Yingyue, and that she was just making excuses to keep the guard behind. He never expected that she would actually conduct an examination.

He quickly lowered his eyes to avoid letting the other party notice his guilty conscience, and let the servant take him away.

Ni Qing was panting heavily, and her eyes were a little sore.

She wasn't so fixated on whether he was a virgin or not, since it had nothing to do with her in essence. One reason was to find a reason for her persona, and the other was because she hadn't had the chance to unveil the male lead's true identity yet.

We can't put him back if we don't have the chance, otherwise the plot won't connect. It seems we have to remove his mask within three days, otherwise we'll have to return him.

"What are you looking at? Are you so eager to follow your master?" Ni Qing glanced sideways at the man standing there like a wooden statue, her tone laced with frivolity.

Bai Guanqing remained indifferent, neither answering nor making eye contact. Feeling awkward, Ni Qing turned and walked into the house. The man paused for a moment, then slowly followed.

This is the simplest plot Ni Qing has ever encountered. All she has to do is take off her mask, pretend to be desperate for food, pounce on the prey, and get herself killed. That's it.

Barring any mishaps, this is a good chance to slack off.

She curled her lips into a smile, which Bai Guanqing, standing behind her, didn't understand. The next second, she suddenly turned back and walked straight towards the man in black.

The further you walk, the taller the man in front of you becomes.

He was at least 180cm tall, and his physique wasn't overly thin; on the contrary, he had a thin layer of muscle covering his body, which made him particularly eye-catching under his black clothes, exuding a sense of power.

His pupils, hidden beneath the mask, gazed at her casually as she drew closer.

However, Ni Qing only pretended to reach for the wine cup behind him.

After they passed each other, he didn't look at her again, staring blankly at an empty space, lost in thought.

After getting the wine, Ni Qing turned around and pretended to fall, certain that he wouldn't help her up.

Just as she expected, the man seemed to be subtly trying to avoid her. Ni Qing gritted her teeth and reached out towards his mask.

The man's dodge was as if he had teleported, and the girl fell heavily to the ground, dizzy and disoriented.

She was seething with anger. Could she tolerate being humiliated twice? At least she could verbally grumble. She quickly got up: "Why didn't you help me up?!"

Bai Guanqing glanced at her, utterly bewildered.

He was like a mute; it was as if she had punched cotton. If she continued to try and remove his mask now, she would definitely be noticed.

So she decided to ignore it and said calmly, "If you're so clueless again, I'll throw you into the pool and get you out of here."

This was the first time she'd let him out of her sight since he'd gone invisible, which showed how annoyed she was.

Bai Guanqing blinked, then strode towards the door without looking back. Just then, a figure appeared in front of him. The man glanced at it casually, vaguely feeling that the person was somewhat familiar.

The other person was dressed neatly and had delicate features, but he looked somewhat haggard and pale, as if he had been through something. He glared coldly at Bai Guanqing and then tiptoed into the house.

That person... looks like Zhou Lian...?
