"Master is in the house. Young Sir, please enter."
Qing Long pushed open the door and guided He Xi into a private room named 'Mozhu Dwell' in Wan Feng Teahouse.
He Xi simply calculated the coordinates and could confirm with confidence that the mysterious person who made Physician Xie kneel towards her was Qing Long's so-called Master.
There was a slight movement in her eyes as she calmly followed Qing Long into the room, but she had already held the invisible needles tightly in her hands just in case.
A young man was sitting in front of the window in the room. He slightly turned his head towards the direction of He Xi entering the room. He was eating and drinking alone, and there was even a vague smile on his lips.
The setting sun outside became golden-red, and the light shone on the man's long lashes, gem-like fingers, and a shirt embroidered with silver clouds as if he was a genie bathed in blood—charming but sinister.
He Xi suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her shocking face seemed just like someone had thrown a gigantic rock into a calm lake surface, causing ripples.
He Xi felt that her entire person was unwell.
This man was the King of Hades? The legendary cool, unreasonable, and mesmerizing King of Hades?
What a joke!
This fella had clearly intruded her bedroom a few nights ago and even had a prodigal-son look; he was clearly the flower-picking thief that shamelessly and immorally took advantage of her!
Once the man leaning against the window saw the shocking expression on her face as if she had seen a ghost, there was a flash of smile in his eyes.
He stood up and waved towards He Xi. "Long time, no see. Xi'er's change really took me by surprise."
Xi'er your head! You will Xi'er; your entire family will Xi'er!"
The corner of He Xi's lips twitched. After tolerating for some time, she then said while clenching her teeth, "This young sir, it seems like I don't know you very well. Besides, who is Xi'er? Did you recognize the wrong person?"
Once she finished her sentence, He Xi felt a blur in front of her as the big figure suddenly trapped her tightly in darkness. This strong coercion just like a mountain caused her to be unable to breathe. However, this type of coercion would only make her more determined and resilient. Her eyes glowed with fire.
A pair of hands suddenly held her chin and forced her to raise her head and meet with a pair of cold eyes that reflected her figure.
The man inched towards her and said in a low and hoarse voice, "See, it's this pair of unique, purple eyes that charms me. I can't seem to forget them. There indeed is a big change in your appearance, and you used very strange ways; even I was almost fooled by you. What a pity, this pair of eyes still betrayed you in the end."
He Xi's face darkened and was depressed in her heart.
She had never observed Nalan Hexi's eye color in detail; she could only vaguely remember that it was black and would flash purple when she was agitated. However, who would notice one's eye color change for no reason?
She did not expect everything to go to naught as she was recognized by this perverted man.
He Xi took a deep breath, before pushing the man's hand holding her chin away. She sneered, "The King of Hades has many hobbies. If you don't barge into people's houses at midnight to be a thief, you'll stare at people's eyes and observe their color. I wonder if your fans know about your perverted habits, would they still worship you?"
The man was clearly taken aback and was followed by him throwing his head back in laughter.
