Yu Qingwu returned to the capital on a day Xie Jin Yan personally went to the pier.

He leaned against the carriage in a flamboyant manner, dressed in brocade and purple robes. When he saw her, he only glanced at her and asked casually, "Where to?"

Yu Qingwu curtsied and teased, "This humble servant is returning to the Rongguo Duke Manor, troubling Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"It's rare for Senior Sister to remember that I am the Crown Prince."

Under the sunlight, Xie Jin Yan's deep features reflected a layer of sarcasm.

Yu Qingwu pretended not to see it and replied coldly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is a dragon among men. This humble servant has been deeply impressed since the first time I saw you."

Stiff, fake, sarcastic!

This was Yu Qingwu, with a beautiful appearance, but a very eccentric personality.

Among the several senior sisters, she was the most annoying, yet Master loved her the most.

Xie Jin Yan sneered and lifted the curtain, "Get in the carriage."

Yu Qingwu bowed and ducked into the carriage from Xie Jin Yan's arm, then poked her head out, admiring the scenery of the capital on her own.

Since she was sent to Shu to study art at the age of eleven by her grandmother, she had rarely returned to the capital. The changes in the capital were getting bigger every year.

This place used to be deserted, but now there were several more streets.

Suddenly, her gaze froze, staring unblinkingly at the men and women entangled against the wall in the distance.

Well, it seemed that not only the streets had changed, but also the declining morals of the world.

"Yu Qingwu, don't you think that man looks familiar?"

Yu Qingwu was resting her cheek in her hand, watching the show, when Xie Jin Yan leaned to her ear at some point. He followed her gaze and laughed mockingly, "Senior Sister! Don't you think he looks like your gentle, refined, and morally upright fiancé?"

???

Yu Qingwu was stunned and widened her eyes to take a closer look.

When she saw the man's face clearly, she was struck by lightning.

The man who was hugging the courtesan behind the wooden bucket was none other than the beloved she was going to marry, her gentle and jade-like cousin—Shen Ke, the second young master of the Rongguo Duke Manor.

At this moment, he was like a wild dog...

Yu Qingwu stared blankly at the unbearable scene, her mind blank. She wanted to go forward and catch him in the act, but in the end, she was restrained by reason.

Xie Jin Yan sat back opposite her and raised his eyebrows at her gloatingly, "Yu Qingwu, why don't you just not marry Shen Ke and be with me instead?"

"Considering you have a good appearance, I'll reluctantly make you a bed-warming maid."

Slap!

Yu Qingwu raised her hand and slapped him.

In an instant, Xie Jin Yan's cheek was burning with pain!

He covered his face, shocked and angry, "Yu Qingwu, how dare you hit me!"

"I'll hit you again if you say another word!" Yu Qingwu gritted her teeth, her eyes full of ferocity, completely different from before.

Xie Jin Yan was suddenly a little scared by her gaze, but the face of the Crown Prince forced him to suppress his emotions and retorted viciously, "What if I say it? Am I wrong? You're an old maid of twenty, it's good enough that someone wants you. It's your blessing for ten lifetimes to be able to warm my bed, and you still dare to dislike it!"

"Do you know that your behavior today deserves the extermination of your nine generations?"

"Ten generations!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and Xie Jin Yan added another sentence viciously.

Yu Qingwu glanced at him coldly and replied gloomily, "Then please, Your Highness the Crown Prince, chop off Shen Ke's entire family."

"..." The most poisonous heart belongs to a woman! Just visiting a brothel and she wants to exterminate his nine generations!

But…

Xie Jin Yan rubbed his cheek and looked at Yu Qingwu teasingly, "Senior Sister, you want me to help you deal with the Shen family? I'm very expensive, what will you give me in exchange?"

"What do you want?"

Yu Qingwu raised her eyes, her red eyes looking at him seriously.

Xie Jin Yan was a little surprised and stunned for a moment. His eyes gradually rippled, and he slowly moved to Yu Qingwu's side, his thin lips close to her white neck, his voice dark, "Doesn't Senior Sister know what I want?"
