Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1826: Slippery

Still making jokes, Fang Yu’s face darkened.

“To save your life, many people might have to die.”

“What does that have to do with me, Brother Diao~”

Zhuge Shi blinked her eyes.

“Did I ask you to save me? No, right? Since you chose to save me, you naturally have your reasons. We are in a trade of interests, so…”

Zhuge Shi brushed away Fang Yu’s golden glowing finger pressing against her neck and got up from the bed.

“…so, my life, in your eyes, should still be valuable, right? Let’s sit down and have a proper discussion, what do you say, Brother Diao?”

This way of speaking really makes one a bit uncomfortable.

Fang Yu squinted slightly.

“If I can save your life, I can also take it.”

“Why does Brother Diao still talk like this?”

Zhuge Shi sighed, turned around, and as she turned away from Fang Yu, her clothes silkily slipped to the ground, revealing her smooth back.

Fang Yu: ??!

What does that mean?

As Fang Yu was stunned, Zhuge Shi spoke.

“What does Brother Diao want? My martial arts? My background? Or… my body? Whatever you want, we can talk it over slowly.”

Even as she said this, Fang Yu noticed that Zhuge Shi, with her back to him, had ears turning red and was trembling slightly — she really wasn’t good at using a woman’s body to negotiate.

Just like a child who had just learned to walk, seeing someone else do something similar before, she was imitating clumsily, making this move.

“…”

Fang Yu remained silent for a moment, then turned away, averting his gaze.

“Put on your clothes, and then we’ll talk.”

Fang Yu walked to the table in the room and sat down.

Behind him, there was a noticeable sigh of relief from Zhuge Shi, who immediately squatted down to pick up her clothes and put them on.

Fang Yu glanced at Ding Hui, still asleep by the window.

Fortunately, she was sleeping; otherwise, who knows what trouble witnessing this scene might cause.

For some reason, Fang Yu felt a slight sense of guilt.

Behind him, Zhuge Shi had already put on her clothes by this point.

But she was still adjusting her breath and calming her mind.

During the days with her master, she learned various skills, including how to use a woman’s body to lure when facing stronger enemies.

Though she had no real combat experience and only theoretical knowledge, her master had once personally shown Zhuge Shi how others used a woman’s body for negotiation and seduction.

It was an exciting memory for her.

Yet, Zhuge Shi never thought she would need to use such a method one day.

After all… after inheriting her master’s power and transforming into Hei Ningyu, she… was almost invincible, without having to bow or stoop; any scheme she could directly break with a sword.

But now, she couldn’t do it anymore.

Because… her invincible power had been sealed.

Yes.

Zhuge Shi had already tried, and the power of Hei Ningyu within her body was completely inaccessible now.

The sealing power of the Seventh Prince had utterly sealed her power.

Now, she was only purely at the strength of Wood Realm Peak.

That level of strength, let alone facing Fang Yu, she couldn’t even step out of the Bo Mansion gates!

That’s why she tried this, but never thought she couldn’t overcome the hurdle in her heart, the shame and humiliation…

At this moment, Zhuge Shi quietly glanced at Fang Yu pouring tea, standing silently beside the little girl.

“If not for him, I might have preferred to die than to…”

The scenes from last night flashed in her mind, finally settling on the image of this person protecting her.

Calming her mind, Zhuge Shi pretended to be carefree and frivolous, walked to Fang Yu’s side, bent over, and whispered in his ear.

“Young Master Diao doesn’t seem interested in my body, then it’s strange, I don’t seem to have any other specialties.”

“Sit!”

The only response she received was a cold word from Fang Yu.

But the more Fang Yu was like this, the more Zhuge Shi felt her heart pounding, a feeling hard to express.

It was as if she quite liked Fang Yu’s reaction.

She flicked her sleeve and sat down facing Fang Yu, beginning to observe his face.

From his eyes and brows, to his nose bridge, and then his lips… what was he saying?

“…Were you even listening to what I was saying?”

Zhuge Shi was stunned; she had been so focused on watching, that she hadn’t really listened to what he was saying.

But…

Zhuge Shi smiled, rubbing her temples with a headache.

“Why is Young Master Diao so harsh? I’ve just woken up and am still recovering, it’s inevitable to be a bit distracted.”

After saying that, she blinked at Fang Yu.

Provoking Fang Yu to glare back, which made Zhuge Shi want to laugh, yet she dared not show it, enduring it with some pain, her expression slightly twisted.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yu said.

“Last night, you were chased by Anqiao Pavilion, even the Pavilion Master made a move. You must have discovered some earth-shattering secret, right? Now we stand up for you and even killed the Anqiao Pavilion Master, but Lord Bo Changquan acted as if facing a great enemy. I really want to know, who has such an ability to make Lord Bo Changquan so nervous.”

Bo Changquan?

Bo Mansion?

Zhuge Shi wanted to laugh.

This time, she really wanted to laugh, and it was… a cold laugh.

“Young Master Diao, you underestimate Anqiao Pavilion too much and at the same time, you overestimate Bo Changquan! For someone like you to choose to stay in Bo Mansion, it’s really beneath your talents.”
