Although Bai Jingqing didn't speak, Qin Yi could tell from her eyes that his character wasn't held in high regard by this woman.
"Alright, you may not trust me, but don't you trust old Mo?" Qin Yi smiled bitterly, feeling a little helpless.
Bai Jingqing sneered, "Why should I trust him? What does he have to do with me?"
"How can you put your pants on and deny everything, woman?"
Bai Jingqing's face turned cold, "Do you believe I won't kill you for talking nonsense?"
"Even if you kill me, I have to say it. Back at the Village Chief's place in the Secret Realm, you slept with old Mo by force, shouldn't you take responsibility?"
Bai Jingqing's eyes flared up.
"Shh!" Qin Yi suddenly made a silent gesture, "Someone's coming."
Bai Jingqing's expression changed slightly, and soon they heard light footsteps approaching. More than one person.
Bai Jingqing hurriedly put away her sword. If others knew there was a man hiding in her room, it would be bad.
"Quickly, hide."
Qin Yi darted behind a pillar to hide.
"Sister Bai, are you asleep?"
The person knocked on the door and asked.
Qin Yi recognized the voice, it was Zi Yuan's.
It was an acquaintance, Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let them in."
Bai Jingqing hesitated for a moment but still went forward to open the door and let Zi Yuan and the other two women in.
Ever since returning from the Secret Realm, the relationship between these four had grown closer.
"Sister Bai, you're not asleep yet?"
The three said as they walked in.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Bai Jingqing asked.
Qing Lan laughed, "We can't sleep, stole two bottles of wine, and came to drink with you."
Qin Yi chuckled to himself, not expecting this woman to enjoy wine so much.
Hua Rui suddenly sniffed the air a few times, "Sister Bai, why does your room smell like a man?"
Bai Jingqing was stunned.
Qin Yi was also taken aback, does this woman have a dog's nose? He lifted his arm to sniff it subconsciously, didn't smell like anything.
Zi Yuan sniffed too but didn't smell anything, teased, "Hua Rui, aren't you just longing for a man?"
"Where? I'm telling the truth, this room really has a man's smell."
"A man has a smell? You, little hussy, obviously craving a man."
"Don't you want to? I've never even dated, or kissed anyone. Such a loss."
"Oh wow, not shy at all, this little girl is longing for love."
Hiding behind the pillar, Qin Yi was sweating profusely. Are women this unrestrained in private?
"Stop talking nonsense, it's so late, why drink? Hurry back to cultivation."
Bai Jingqing knew Qin Yi was there, hurriedly stopped them from continuing.
"Long night ahead, can't sleep, why not we drink together?"
Qin Yi smiled as he walked out from behind the pillar.
The three women were startled.
"Sister Bai, you..."
Didn't expect Hua Rui to be right, there really was a man in Bai Jingqing's room.
Bai Jingqing was full of helplessness, "Don't overthink, take a closer look at who he is?"
Since Qin Yi was standing in the shadows, the three women didn't see clearly, hearing Bai Jingqing's words, they curiously moved closer, their eyes widening in surprise once they saw clearly.
"Young Master Qin?" Hua Rui exclaimed.
Zi Yuan was shocked, "Young Master Qin, why are you here?"
Qin Yi laughed, "I came to ask you for a favor."
Bai Jingqing walked over, looked at Qin Yi with annoyance, "Sit down and talk."
After everyone sat down, Qin Yi explained the situation concisely.
"So the one marrying Fang Zhiyi is your friend?"
"Young Master Qin, what is Lan Jiaojiao's relationship with you? Is she your woman?"
"Aren't you married? How come there's another woman?"
Qin Yi was drenched in cold sweat, is this the main point? As expected, when women gossip, they don't focus on the main issue at all.
"Lan Jiaojiao and I have known each other for a long time, she's a very good friend. This time, the Fang Family captured her just to deal with me."
"Oh, so that's how it is."
The three women nodded, seemingly understanding.
Bai Jingqing was remained calm.
Qin Yi suddenly thought, with the Fang Family using Lan Jiaojiao against him, Bai Jingqing was one of the participants, she must have known about this.
"You knew why I came to find you?" Qin Yi looked at Bai Jingqing and asked.
Bai Jingqing nodded, "I know!"
"And you still pointed a sword at me just now?"
"It's rare for you to ask me for a favor, if I don't take the chance to tease you, it would go to waste."
Qin Yi: "..."
Damn, what kind of twisted humor is this.
But needing help now, Qin Yi was still keeping a low profile.
"I still have to trouble little Bai Fairy for assistance."
Bai Jingqing asked back, "Why should I help you?"
Qin Yi: "..."
"Because we are friends."
Bai Jingqing scoffed, "I have lots of friends, you're not one of them."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Little Bai Fairy, you can't be like this, should know to return favors. Think back to how I treated you in the Secret Realm? If not for me, would you have found old Mo as your desirable partner?"
Bai Jingqing wasn't appreciative at all, sneered, "That's because you needed me and Mo Wuji to help you destroy the other families. You were using us and expect me to be grateful. I didn't tell the truth to the family elders as repayment for your protection in the Secret Realm."
Qin Yi sneered, "You overestimate yourself. Honestly, you weren't even worth using. The only reason I kept you around was because of old Mo. If she didn't like you, what does your life or death have to do with me?"
"Then I have even less reason to be grateful to you."
Qin Yi: "..."
Damn, how did I end up talking myself into a corner?
"Say it, what will it take for you to help me?"
"Helping you isn't impossible either." Bai Jingqing smiled sweetly at Qin Yi, "Return the red and blue Sapphire you took from me, and fifty pieces of Earth Spirit Stone on top of that."
"That's robbery?" Qin Yi was very unhappy, this woman sure holds grudges, even for this small matter, he's already forgotten about it.
Bai Jingqing laughed, "Young Master Qin is indeed smart, you got it in one go. I am indeed taking advantage of the situation and raising prices. If you don't want to, the door's over there, feel free to leave.
But I should tell you, this time the Fang Family has set up a heaven and earth net, all the families are involved, if you want to snatch people by force, it's a slim hope."
Qin Yi gritted his teeth and looked at Lan Jiaojiao.
"Do you believe I'll go back and tell old Mo, you're heartless, can't be trusted?"
"Feel free."
Qin Yi: "..."
"I have no Earth Spirit Stone, I've given all my Earth Spirit Stone to the Peace Army brothers. But I can give you double the red and blue Sapphire as compensation."
Bai Jingqing looked at Qin Yi with a meaningful smile.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do, I really don't have any Earth Spirit Stones."
Bai Jingqing chuckled lightly, stood up, took some paper and a pen, placed it in front of Qin Yi, "If you don't have any, it's fine, write an IOU. I believe in Young Master Qin's reputation, you wouldn't renege in the future."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Do you have to play it so hard?"
