On the way to send Shen Jiuyi to Wubao Pavilion.
Old Liang, who always drove steadily, kept glancing at his phone screen from time to time.
Since he hung up Shen Buyao's call at the restaurant,
she hadn't called back.
This made Old Liang start to lose confidence.
Could it be that Boss Yao really fell into the secret passage?
But now,
he couldn't call back to ask about the situation.
Because
he hadn't figured out how to explain why he had been hanging up the calls if he called back at this time.
Shen Jiuyi could clearly see what was on Old Liang's mind and comforted him, saying,
"Old Liang, focus on driving. There's no need to worry about Yaoyao."
"Even if she really fell, she'll definitely be fine."
Old Liang said with a gloomy face and helplessness,
"Cough, Miss Jiuyi, of course I know that Boss Yao is blessed with good fortune."
"I'm not worried about whether she'll be okay if she fell."
"I'm worried that...
I'll be in trouble if she fell!"
Shen Jiuyi nodded silently,
"This worry is quite necessary."
...
At the Shen family's old mansion.
Beside the flowing pool.
"I'm really fed up! Don't let me see Old Liang again!"
"If I see him, I'll definitely pull out all his hair!"
"He opened these damned secret passages and didn't even tell me. I almost died from the fall!"
"Lin Yu, you don't know what makes me the angriest..."
"What makes me the angriest is that he hung up my calls. He hung up several in a row!"
"I hope he never answers. If I find him, he's dead meat!"
Shen Buyao, all dirty, was sitting by the pool.
She was using the flowing artificial stream to wash the mud off her body.
The speaker didn't mean anything, but the listener took it to heart.
Lin Yu had just broken the bluestone slab. It took him a lot of effort to carry Shen Buyao, who had fallen to the bottom of the pit, out of the rotating spiral trap.
After getting out, he found out that
Shen Buyao wasn't unaware of the existence of the secret passage at the entrance.
She just didn't know that the butler, Old Liang, had activated the mechanism.
And he didn't answer the phone after activating it?
Combined with all the things that had happened since they arrived at the Shen family's old mansion.
The Kongming lock...
The unchained eagle...
No matter how thick - skinned Lin Yu was, he finally understood the meaning behind it.
It turned out that all these actions were aimed at him!
It was just that by accident, the antique sister had become the scapegoat.
Was it an order from Shen Jiuyi?
It didn't seem so.
After learning that Yaoyao had found someone with a "strong fate" to be in contact with,
Shen Jiuyi was actually very happy inside.
Lin Yu was sure of this.
Moreover,
if she wanted to stop it, she could simply not tell Shen Buyao about Lin Yu's fate.
There was no need to go through all this trouble.
So,
was it the butler's own initiative?
Lin Yu had no grudges against him, so it wasn't aimed at Lin Yu himself.
Most likely, he had a special "mission".
In this way,
everything made sense.
Unexpectedly,
the person who suffered in the end from the scheme against Lin Yu was actually the antique sister.
Lin Yu scooped up the cool water in the pool to help Shen Buyao wash the scratches on her legs.
During the fall,
although Shen Buyao didn't have any fatal or serious injuries,
there were still many small scratches on her body. The injuries on her legs were particularly obvious.
She had almost slid all the way down along the bottom of the secret passage until she fell.
The good ruqun (a traditional Chinese dress) had a big hole worn out at the knees.
The hem was also torn after being scraped, looking rather ragged.
If the material of the ruqun hadn't been so good and could withstand a lot of friction,
the scratches on Shen Buyao would probably have been even more serious.
"Fortunately, the bones aren't injured. Only the wound on the knee looks quite scary."
"Tell me where the first - aid kit is later. I'll go get some medicine for you."
"You may walk a bit awkwardly now."
"Don't worry. It'll recover in a few days and won't affect your slow walking."
"You really should give your butler a good scolding. It's so dangerous not to tell you about this in advance!"
"This dress will cover your wound..."
As he spoke,
Lin Yu grabbed the torn part of the ruqun and easily tore it off with a familiar motion.
"Rip..."
The next moment,
the damaged part of the moon - white ruqun below the knees was easily torn off by Lin Yu.
It circled around Shen Buyao.
The dress in his hand was transformed into a different, sexy style above the knees.
Even with Shen Buyao's carefree personality,
feeling Lin Yu's sudden action,
she still subconsciously covered her back.
"Hey, Lin Yu, you're so skillful!
"Damn it! Have you often torn other girls' dresses?"
Lin Yu deliberately exerted force with the hand that was washing the wound.
"Ah!"
A delicate cry came from above his head.
"You did it on purpose!"
Shen Buyao pressed on Lin Yu's shoulders, wishing she could get up and fight with Lin Yu right away.
Lin Yu joked with a smile,
"Yaoyao, you're the first girl whose dress I've torn."
"You're also the first girl who moaned 'ah' while I was tearing the dress."
【Ding!】
【Amazing move! Becoming the first person in the Holy Son's life in some aspects makes the Taoist companion secretly happy!】
【Reward: 50 spirit stones】
Lin Yu: "..."
Sister Antique is truly extraordinary!
Even having such a dull chat can secretly excite me?
Well, Lin Yu knows exactly how to chat like this!
Come to think of it.
Lin Yu should actually thank that old butler he's never met.
Thanks to him.
He managed to keep the restless Shen Buyao quiet for the time being.
Otherwise, once she starts causing a ruckus.
She'd be like a pig during the Chinese New Year, impossible to hold down. It'd really give Lin Yu a hard time.
Now it's all good...
Looking at Shen Buyao stubbornly walking, Lin Yu couldn't help but remind her:
"It's still bleeding. Walk slowly."
Shen Buyao covered her cold nether region:
"You can rest assured. I can't go fast."
After retorting unhappily.
Shen Buyao muttered again:
"All Old Liang's fault!"
"He promised we'd take pictures in the mountains. How can we do it now!"
Hearing this.
Lin Yu quickly caught up with Shen Buyao and held her arm.
Pretending to be annoyed, he said:
"Tell me about it! I even brought my camera. Sigh!"
"However, Yaoyao... even if we don't go for a stroll in the mountains, I still hope you'll be the first girl in my camera."
【Ding!】
【Amazing move! The sweet words and the title of "the first" have made your Taoist companion extremely happy!】
【Reward: 50 spirit stones】
Shen Buyao glanced at Lin Yu and said, trying to hold back a smile:
"Then, then let's just take some ordinary photos. Although I look so messy now."
Lin Yu then grabbed Shen Buyao's hand and said seriously:
"Huh?"
"How can you be messy? You're always beautiful.
"Actually, we don't need to go out to take aesthetically pleasing photos.
"Yaoyao..."
"Have you heard of boudoir photos?"
...

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
