When Xiang Yu saw the red-hot branding iron, he laughed heartily, exuding a boldness as he said, “Come at me.”

Sheng Wantao, holding the branding iron, came up behind Xiang Yu and pressed it right onto his back.

A sizzling sound emanated from behind Xiang Yu, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt feathers.

“Xiang Yu!” Shi Jian, worried, knelt in front of Xiang Yu, supporting him.

All he saw was Xiang Yu’s eyes bloodshot, his teeth clenched, yet he said nothing.

The people around were all a bit horrified.

Kong Ruyu simply turned her head away, unable to bear watching any longer.

With bone-piercing pain coming from his back, Xiang Yu felt a bit dizzy, but he endured it, not allowing himself to faint.

It wasn’t time yet.

“That’s a real man,” Sheng Wantao threw down the branding iron and shouted.

“Xiang Yu.” Shi Jian saw it was over and quickly supported Xiang Yu.

“Quick, take him to the room.

I have medicine there,” Kong Ruyu hurriedly led the way.

At the moment Xiang Yu was helped away by Shi Jian, he heard Sheng Wantao say with a loud voice that this matter was now over and that nobody was allowed to bring up Zhu Qingyuan’s affair ever again.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu let out a cold laugh and passed out.

Xiang Yu did not know how long he had been unconscious, but when he woke up, he felt a soft hand caressing his body.

It tickled pleasantly, and lying there, he did not want to move, enjoying the caress.

“Since you’re awake, stop pretending.” Suddenly, a teasing laughter rang out, and at the same time, Xiang Yu felt a burning pain on his back that made him involuntarily take a deep breath of cold air.

Turning his head, he caught sight of Kong Ruyu’s smiling face.

Her smile was beautiful enough to make hearts race.

Xiang Yu quickly looked around.

“No need to look, it’s just the two of us in the room.

The old man won’t come at this time,” Kong Ruyu said as if she had read Xiang Yu’s mind.

“Thank you for saving me,” Xiang Yu said, lying there.

“Don’t thank me.

It was your own tough luck, but I did save you for a reason,” Kong Ruyu said, gently caressing his back.

“How should I address you?” Xiang Yu, his mind wandering, quickly shifted his attention.

“When others are around, you can call me ‘Godmother’; now, you can call me ‘Sister’,” Kong Ruyu said, moving a bit closer to Xiang Yu.

Kong Ruyu was already in her early thirties, but her skin was as soft as a baby’s.

As if sensing Xiang Yu’s gaze, Kong Ruyu deliberately pulled up her skirt a bit.

“How old do you think I look right now?” Kong Ruyu smiled and asked.

“Right now, you look like my little sister,” Xiang Yu chuckled and said.

He lay comfortably on the bed and couldn’t help but ask, “This is your room, isn’t it?”

“It is,” Kong Ruyu said.

Kong Ruyu then lay on her side, her gaze flowing as she stared straight at Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu also met her gaze unflinchingly.

“Do I look good?” Kong Ruyu suddenly asked.

“Good-looking,” Xiang Yu chuckled.

“You can’t be thinking about me, though.

I belong to your boss.

If anyone touched me, the boss definitely wouldn’t let him off,” Kong Ruyu spoke as she lay down, her tone casual as if speaking to an old friend.

Kong Ruyu lay down, turned to Xiang Yu, and the two lay close together, listening to each other’s breath.

“You say the boss won’t let me off, but I’m not convinced,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.

Kong Ruyu then gave Xiang Yu a look and said, “If you don’t touch me, of course, he won’t do anything to you.”

Xiang Yu didn’t say much more, lying there, thinking about his next move.

“Is Sister’s skin very nice?”

“Mmm, indeed,” Xiang Yu nodded and said.

“Then, do you have any thoughts?” Kong Ruyu asked with a smile.

It had to be said that Kong Ruyu was certainly experienced; every move she made was so tempting.

“Yes,” Xiang Yu straightforwardly said.

He knew the woman in front of him was no simpleton, nor was she a good sort.

If it came to it, he wouldn’t feel a speck of guilt dealing with her.

“But, having thoughts is useless.

I’m your boss’s woman.

If I tell him about this, you’re done for,” Kong Ruyu teased with a flirtatious smile.

“Would you really do that?” Xiang Yu suddenly sat up and stared intently at Kong Ruyu.

“What would I regret?

I’ve heard about you.

Your biggest current enemy is Yan Bin.

If you can’t handle him, then you might as well wait for death,” Kong Ruyu said as she pushed Xiang Yu away and stood at a distance.

“If you can really take down Yan Bin, then I’ll consider you a real man,” Kong Ruyu said.

“You mean to surrender to you, old monk?

It’s better you surrender now, I can’t wait any longer,” Xiang Yu chuckled.

“That’s impossible; we’ll talk about it when the time comes.

Just imagine it for now.

Once your back heals, leave on your own,” Kong Ruyu said, throwing him a coquettish glance before walking out.

Xiang Yu sat up straight, the pain flaring up on his back.

Judging by Kong Ruyu’s behavior, she seemed to want to use her charms to lever him into removing Yan Bin for her.

He didn’t know how Yan Bin had crossed this woman, but looking at the current situation, Xiang Yu’s feud with Yan Bin was set.

Even if Xiang Yu didn’t go after him, he would come after Xiang Yu himself.

It looked like he was going to do Kong Ruyu a favor, but he had to be wary of this terrifying woman in the future, Xiang Yu thought to himself.

The way he had looked at her just now would leave her with the impression of a lecher, making her believe he was just a reckless and foolish fellow.

Getting up from the bed, he found his clothes and got dressed.

The clothes had been burnt through, nearly catching fire.

Luckily, the hole was in just the right place to avoid his wounds, making it less painful.

Just as he was about to leave, Shi Jian called.

“You’re awake?

Come back quick; we still need you here…”
