Chapter 240: The Older, the Wiser

"Sister Hong, if there's nothing else, I'll be on my way," Xu Nian said with a sheepish smile.

Although he had just feigned ignorance and ruined Sister Hong's plan,

he had to remember that Sister Hong was a Marquis Level powerhouse.

If he truly angered her, he feared the consequences wouldn't be pleasant.

Sister Hong, now alone with Xu Nian in the courtyard, took a deep breath to quell her anger.

But due to her previous irritation, her body still trembled slightly, and the ample waves at her chest were still quite eye-catching.

Xu Nian quickly averted his gaze, not daring to look again, fearing his eyeballs might fall into the crevice.

This action actually coaxed a smile back onto Sister Hong's face; she thought she had regained some ground.

"You're quite the sly one, much smarter than I anticipated, daring enough to play tricks on me," Sister Hong said as she walked towards Xu Nian, intentionally exaggerating her footsteps.
