Chapter 45

After asking around, Su Mo and the others finally learned what had happened.

The man was called Yu Yifan. This courtyard originally belonged to his family too, but his parents' business failed and they became seriously ill, so they sold the courtyard to the Li family.

The courtyard could have been sold for a good price originally. But the Li family pressed down the price, and other interested buyers didn't dare compete with the Li family either, so the Li family bought the courtyard at a low price.

Later, Yu Yifan's parents' illnesses did not get cured, and they passed away one after the other.

"This is the place where we grew up since we were young. My sister and I wanted to buy back this courtyard, but we don't have that much silver. So we came up with this idea of pretending there were ghosts here, so no one would dare to live here, and the Li family would sell the courtyard at a low price," Yu Yifan said.

"You have a sister too?" Sang Li asked, "Then where is your sister?"

Yu Yifan lowered his eyes, "She...is at Tianxiang Building."

"What is Tianxiang Building?" Su Mo asked instinctively.

"A brothel," Wu Ying supplemented.

Su Mo looked at Wu Ying unpleasantly, "You're so knowledgeable about this? Have you been there before?"

"..." Even if he hadn't been there before, he still knew it was a brothel!

Su Mo glared at Wu Ying. Her expression seemed to say, [You wait for me!]

"..." Alright, he shouldn't have spoken.

"Why is your sister at a brothel?" Sang Li asked.

"At that time, we didn't even get much money for selling this courtyard. It wasn't enough for my parents' medical treatment. My sister went there to earn money, because she said that was the fastest way to make money." There was a hint of choking in Yu Yifan's voice, "But my parents still passed away..."

"But it's still wrong for you to pretend to be a ghost to scare people," Sang Li said, "What if someone with a heart condition got scared to death by you?"

Yu Yifan thought of how someone had indeed been scared to death by him before, and he had felt very guilty about it then.

"Don't do things like this anymore. We'll live here now. Of course, if you have nowhere to go, you can also live here yourself!"

Yu Yifan didn't speak. His tricks had been exposed, so of course he couldn't drive them away now.

Just then, Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao came out. When Yu Yifan saw them, he immediately stood up.

"How is it? Is Xiao Hei okay?" Yu Yifan hurriedly asked.

"Don't worry, since I'm the one who treated it, it must be fine!" Xiao Han said.

Yu Yifan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you. Can I go see it?"

"Let me treat your shoulder wound first!" Xiao Han said, walking over with a medicine box.

After Xiao Han finished treating his wound, he immediately went inside to see Xiao Hei.

"Rest first. We'll deal with this Yu Yifan situation tomorrow," Sang Li said. "Humph!" Su Mo glared at Wu Ying, then immediately got up and returned to her room.

"..."

Sang Li looked at Wu Ying and asked, "Did you really go to a brothel before?"

Wu Ying paused, "I did."

"Ah, then you're doomed!" Xiao Han pointed at Wu Ying, "Just wait to get beaten up!"

"I'm prepared to get beaten. I feel like Su Mo might break up with you..." Xia Miaomiao added fuel to the fire.

Wu Ying was stunned. He immediately walked towards Su Mo's room.

Su Mo had just returned to her room and was about to close the door when Wu Ying's hand reached out to grab the door frame.

"What do you want?" Su Mo said unpleasantly.

Wu Ying's heart was a little chaotic. He didn't know how to explain to her.

"I...did go to a brothel before."

Su Mo took a deep breath, nodded, and laughed bitterly, "Great, you specially came to tell me that you went to a brothel, right?"

"But I had something to do there, it's not what you're thinking!" Wu Ying immediately said.

"Had something to do? Who goes to a brothel without something to do? Seeking pleasure is also having something to do!" Su Mo stared at him.

"Su Mo, it's not what you think. I didn't go there to seek pleasure!"

"Anyway, in your eyes, seeking pleasure is legal. I can also go to Fu Hua Building to seek pleasure. Alright, I'm going to sleep now. Let go of me!"

When Wu Ying heard her say she was going to Fu Hua Building to seek pleasure, his eyes darkened.

He looked at her but didn't speak.

"I told you to let go. I'm going to sleep now!" Su Mo tried to push his hand away.

Not only did Wu Ying not let go, he grabbed her hand forcefully instead. He used quite a bit of strength, squeezing Su Mo's hand until it hurt.

Su Mo frowned. She was a little angry. "Let go. You're hurting me!"

When Wu Ying heard her words, he loosened his grip a little.

"You can't go to Fu Hua Building again!" Wu Ying said in a low voice.

"Who are you to control me?" Su Mo retorted.

Wu Ying suddenly grabbed her waist and pushed her against the door. There was a hint of possessiveness in his eyes. "You're mine now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Ying leaned down to seal her lips.

"Mmm..."

What's going on? She was forcibly kissed by Wu Ying again?

Su Mo felt that as a modern woman, she couldn't be so weak!

Thinking this, Su Mo wrapped her arms around Wu Ying's waist and unexpectedly flipped their positions, pushing Wu Ying against the door instead. The sudden turn of events stunned Wu Ying somewhat.

"Wu Ying, seems like you don't know how to kiss. Let me teach you!"

As Su Mo spoke, she pressed her lips to his, and her soft tongue pried open his closed teeth.

Wu Ying was stimulated by this novel feeling. Not only did his heartbeat speed up, even his whole body grew hotter.

After a while, Su Mo finally left his lips.

Although she had never kissed like this before either, she was still a modern woman after all. She may not have eaten pork, but at least she had seen pigs run.

Anyway, no matter what, she was still stronger than Wu Ying, this ancient man.

Su Mo was still gloating to herself when she looked up to see Wu Ying staring at her, desire filling his eyes.

"You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Wu Ying wrapped his arm around her waist again and lowered his head to seal her lips.

He followed Su Mo's previous actions, exploring bit by bit.

Su Mo was kissed until her mind spun and her head felt faint. Was this Wu Ying some kind of learning god?

Could he learn things this quickly?

Who knows how much time passed before Wu Ying finally released her.

The two breathed heavily as they looked into each other's eyes.

"Su Mo..." Wu Ying's hoarse voice sounded. "I really didn't go to brothels to seek pleasure. Other than you, I haven't touched any other girl."

The corners of Su Mo's lips turned up slightly. She extended her finger and brushed his lips. "Still quite soft."

"Yours are softer." Wu Ying said solemnly.

"..." Wu Ying's solemn words made Su Mo think improperly.

Tsk tsk, she was too dirty-minded. She didn't have the face to see anyone!

"Ahem..." She deliberately coughed and left Wu Ying's embrace. She touched her nose. "It's late. You should go back and sleep."

Wu Ying frowned. "You don't believe me?"

"No no, I believe you. I believe you didn't go to seek pleasure. But it really is very late now. We should rest, right?"

Only then did Wu Ying breathe a sigh of relief. "Alright, you rest well."

"I know, I know. Hurry and go back." Su Mo pushed him out the door.

"Good night~" Su Mo blinked at him and was about to close the door.

Seeing her like this, Wu Ying couldn't help but chuckle softly. "Wait."

"What is it?" Su Mo poked her head out.

Wu Ying moved closer and pecked her lips lightly again. "Rest well. I'll start teaching you lightness skills tomorrow."

"Okay~"

Su Mo closed the door and leaned against it, grinning like an auntie.

And Wu Ying stood outside the door, gazing at it for a long time before leaving.
