I am the villain, plundering the destiny of the heroine.

Chapter 23 23: Role Playing

"What do you want to do tonight...I totally depend on you..."

Hearing Xia Lengbai's shy words, Li Xu was stunned and suspected that he was hallucinating.

He turned his head and saw the silly girl with her head lowered, her delicate face covered with a delicate blush, her teeth biting her lower lip in embarrassment.

"?"

Good guy, are you so cruel to ask me to apologize to Li Tianai?

It all depends on me... Are you using this to test cadres? Which cadre can withstand such a test? ?
  No, how do you know that I want to sing across the river tonight? ? ?
  "You saw it yourself during the day. Li Tianai doesn't have the slightest fondness for you. It can even be said that he is full of hostility."

Li Xu resisted the urge to agree and thought about words to mention Xia Lengbai.

"You're just trying to trick me into apologizing to Li Tian'ai. It won't do you any good at all."

Xia Lengbai's peach blossom eyes flickered, and she whispered: "As long as it's good for you...you really hope to get your sister's attention."

Li Xu: "..."

If Xia Lengbai came to the bridal chamber with her as if she was going to die last night because she sacrificed her appearance for the safety of her family, then Xia Lengbai's sacrifice of her appearance now was all because she could ease the sibling relationship with Li Tian'ai.

For such a delicate and good lady, Li Xu really fell in love and cried to death!
  "I have a younger brother too."

Xia Lengbai continued to lower her blushing face and hesitated to encourage Li Xu: "No matter what wrong thing my brother has done, as long as he sincerely regrets it, my sister will be willing to forgive him..."

"Leng'er, let me be your younger brother!" Li Xu blurted out.

"Hmm... eh?" Xia Leng was stunned for a moment.

Tonight, Li Xu suddenly didn't want to sing across the river and wanted to role-play with Xia Lengbai.

He has already thought of a hundred ways.

He still plays himself, while Xia Lengbai plays his other half-sister, with a trembling and tender tone, calling him a good brother every time... This does not make Li Tianai that noble sister who only insults him. , get rid of the Eighteen Streets? !
  "Okay, I promise you, it's a deal!"

Li Xu agreed without any unnecessary nonsense.

"However, I only need to go and apologize to Li Tian'ai. After all, this is a matter between her and me and has nothing to do with you."

Xia Lengbai hesitated again and again and nodded his chin.

For some reason, Xia Lengbai had a natural fear of this sister from the first time she met Li Tianai. It would be best if Li Xu could improve his relationship with Li Tianai on his own.

……

The Xiangguo Mansion occupies a huge area and can be called the largest mansion in the imperial capital besides the imperial palace. It is divided into an outer courtyard and an inner courtyard.

The outer courtyard houses all the guests and servants of the house, while the inner courtyard can only be accessed by Li Chunfeng, Li Tianai, and Li Xu.

Now that she is married to Xia Lengbai, there is one more person in the inner courtyard who can come and go freely.

The small courtyard where the wedding ceremony was held last night was just a small dark room where Li Chunfeng usually kept his rebellious son, not Li Xu's real residence in the mansion.

Due to disagreements with Li Chunfeng and his son, Li Xu had been hanging out in the Goulan brothel for many years. Now he suddenly brought Xia Lengbai back to Jiuri Pavilion where he lived, which made him feel a little strange.

I saw that although no one had lived in the attic in front of me for a long time, it was not depressed at all. It was decorated with carved beams and painted buildings and lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere. The center of the hall was covered with bright and conspicuous "hi" characters, making it look like a wedding room.

"Are these all arranged by Li Tianai..."

Li Xu was thoughtful, with mixed emotions in his expression.

Li Chunfeng prohibited all outsiders from entering the inner courtyard, and no one dared to violate his bottom line. Therefore, all the arrangements in Jiuri Pavilion could only be made by Li Tianai. It's hard to imagine what kind of mood the adopted sister, who seemed to be contemptuous of herself but actually cared about herself, was in the mood to arrange the wedding room for her yesterday.

"Why didn't you take me here last night instead of taking me to that small courtyard?"

Xia Leng's beautiful white eyes flickered, and she looked at Li Xu in confusion.

Li Xu: "..."

Can I say that I had no intention of marrying you yesterday?

It’s all because the medicine Li Chunfeng gave me was too strong, and because your innate body was so good that it directly penetrated my soul and trapped me to death...

"You were still an outsider last night and had no right to come to the inner courtyard."

Li Xu was vague and perfunctory: "You should take a shower, change clothes and rest first. I'll be back after I've finished looking for Li Tian'ai."

"Um……"

Xia Lengbai had already experienced Li Xudang's licking skills, and was very clear about the tone of his words when he asked her to take a bath and change clothes. However, she agreed to do it according to his wishes. While her face was blushing with shyness, she did not forget to say:
  "You must remember that when you apologize to your sister, your tone and attitude must be sincere, and you must not be rude to her again..."

"I know. Anyway, just clean up and wait for me."

Li Xu waved his hand, turned around and went out.

As soon as he left Jiuri Pavilion, he went straight to the outer courtyard, muttering to himself: "It is absolutely impossible for me to apologize to Li Tianai."

Even if Xia Lengbai sacrificed his appearance to seduce him, it would still be impossible.

But the stupid girl thought of this for her own sake, so Li Xu couldn't force her to refuse, so he could only pretend to accept the temptation, but actually went out for a walk, pretending to be done.

"It's better not to go back too soon, otherwise the stupid girl will see at a glance that I've perfunctory her. Keeping her physically and mentally happy will be very beneficial for me to obtain the innate body... Well, I just want to speed up the progress of sharing the innate body. I don’t want to see a silly girl calling me my good brother with her charming eyes.”

"I have enough time to go to the martial arts center to test the substantial benefits of improving luck."

……

The martial arts gym is a training place specially for the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as Li Xu crossed the threshold, he saw a group of burly men fighting in the square. Every move and every move was full of impact, and the spiritual power was gushing out. The sound of meat was heard endlessly.

"Greetings to the Second Young Master!"

A naked upper body man with sharp eyes was the first to notice Li Xu's arrival. He immediately stopped sparring with his companions and jumped in front of him to pay homage and salute.

"Greetings to the Second Young Master!"

When the other dozens of guards heard the news, they all came down to pay homage to Li Xu and shouted in unison.

The cultivation level of these guards is not high, generally between the sixth and seventh grades, but their victory lies in their loyalty. Each of them is a dead soldier of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they are extremely devoted to Li Chunfeng.

"No need to be polite, you can continue to compete with each other."

Li Xu responded casually. Everyone in the square turned their eyes to the muscular man in front of them.

"I suddenly got a little excited. Chen Weizhang, please find a secret room for me, and then take a random book to practice the exercises."

"As ordered."

The man known as Chen Weichang did not ask the young master what he was doing with the cultivation techniques. He simply followed the instructions and led Li Xu to the secret room inside the martial arts dojo.
