733: Chapter 733: The Secret You Can’t Drink 733: Chapter 733: The Secret You Can’t Drink When he heard the sound of the door opening, Gu Fan’s heart raced.
The guilt of doing something wrong made him nervous.
Then, through the screen, Gu Fan saw a graceful figure walk in.
“No way!” Gu Fan had a bad feeling.
Next, he saw the graceful figure undress and slowly step into the bath.
Soon, Gu Fan could hear the water stirring, as a scene of a beautiful woman bathing conjured in his mind.
Gu Fan closed his eyes and mentally repeated, “Don’t gaze at the inappropriateness, don’t gaze at the inappropriateness, stay calm…
Achoo…”
Unluckily, Gu Fan couldn’t hold it and sneezed, immediately alerting the woman in the bath, who yelled, “Who’s there?”
“Damn, I’ve been discovered!” Gu Fan’s heart skipped a beat.
He wanted to make a quick escape, but given the limited space, where could he run to?
The woman beckoned and her clothes flew into her hand.
A great splash from the pool then hid her as she dressed, before rushing over.
She struck at the screen with a single palm, reducing it to fragments.
Gu Fan, who had been hiding behind it, was exposed, leaving him with no choice but to make a run for it.
“It’s a smelly man, you need to die.” The woman was very angry, and chased after Gu Fan.
As Gu Fan looked back, he saw the woman’s imposing, elegant figure.
Most importantly, she resembled Lin Xi.
As anticipated, this woman had to be Qian Ye; only she would have the privilege to bathe and change here.
Qian Ye was furious!
With each palm strike, a powerful gust of wind accompanied it, demonstrating her intense strength.
After dodging five times, Gu Fan wasn’t able to evade the sixth attack.
He was blown away by the strong wind, crashing into the wall.
The pain was intense.
He immediately yelled, “Wait, I have something to say, let’s have a calm discussion.”
“Your head!
You dare to peek while I was bathing, you deserve to die.” Qian Ye had completely lost her rationale.
Just as she was about to deliver a killer strike, Lin Xi, who had been hidden behind the second screen, finally stepped in, “Wait, Qian Ye!
Show mercy.”
“What, there’s another one?” Qian Ye was about to explode with rage.
However, when she turned around she was stunned because what she saw was a face identical to her own.
Not only did the face resemble hers, even the attire was unusual.
Qian Ye frowned, hesitating.
At that moment, the maidens who were standing guard outside heard the commotion and rushed in, but before they managed to navigate beyond the screen, Lin Xi reprimanded, “Nothing is going on here.
All of you, get out now.”
“Yes!” Because Lin Xi’s voice was identical to Qian Ye’s, the maidens did not dare to disobey and immediately retreated, closing the door behind them.
Taking advantage of this situation, Lin Xi quickly hurried over and helped Gu Fan up.
Unable to resist, Gu Fan aired his grievance, “Couldn’t you have revealed yourself earlier?
Look at how badly I’ve been beaten.”
This was Lin Xi’s explanation.
“I was awestruck by your nimbleness!
I was just coming back to reality.
Sorry, sorry.”
Gu Fan didn’t believe her.
He rolled his eyes.
Watching the two of them carry on their conversation as if she wasn’t there, Qian Ye felt frustrated.
“Speak.
Who are you two?
If you don’t explain clearly, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Wait, listen to us.
We’ll give you a satisfactory explanation.” Finishing his sentence, Gu Fan signaled Lin Xi to do the answering as she would be more convincing.
Left with no choice, Lin Xi nervously chuckled, “Well, you may not believe this, have you ever heard of reincarnation?”
“Heard of it.
What about it?” Qian Ye looked puzzled at Lin Xi, looking at the face identical to hers over and over, she vaguely guessed, “Don’t tell me you’re my reincarnation.”
“Yep, you’re really smart, which is just like me in my previous life.” As Lin Xi finished her sentence, she encountered Qian Ye’s angered eyes.
“Don’t think that just because you look like me, you can deceive me.
There are many people in this world who look similar.
How do you prove it?”
Here’s how Lin Xi explained, “Didn’t you notice how different our attire is compared to yours?
Because I’m your reincarnation from hundreds of years.
Moreover, look at these…” As Lin Xi spoke, she rummaged through her pockets and showed Qian Ye her cell phone and other objects.
It was Qian Ye’s first time seeing such peculiar objects that completely surpassed her imagination.
She was immediately half-convinced after hearing Lin Xi.
“Okay, I can believe from your attire and these objects that you came from the future.
But how can you prove that you’re my reincarnation.
What if you merely resemble me?
There have been cases in this world where unrelated people resemble each other exactly, looking identical with the help of Face-changing Skill.” Qian Ye’s words made sense.
Lin Xi needed to provide more convincing evidence.
Lin Xi was nonchalant, “You asked for evidence.
Don’t blame me for airing your dirty laundry.”
Hearing this, Gu Fan’s eyes brightened and he focused attentively.
“This…” After hearing Lin Xi’s tone, Qian Ye seemed regretful.
Lin Xi cleared her throat, “Every time you take a bath here, you always fart in the water.”
“Ah!” Gu Fan was startled.
He looked at Qian Ye with incredulous eyes, then back to Lin Xi.
“Is this true!” Now, Qian Ye was finally convinced by Lin Xi.
Just as Qian Ye was about to say something, Gu Fan suddenly exploded, “Damn it!
No wonder you refused to drink the pool water earlier.
So this was the reason…
and you tricked me into drinking it.”
Lin Xi speechless, “I didn’t intend to hide it from you.
I didn’t do it on purpose.
I just recalled that I had this hobby in my previous life.”
“Is that really when you remembered it?” How could Gu Fan believe such words?
He looked at her suspiciously, making Lin Xi unable to meet his gaze.
Gu Fan asked, “Is there anything else you need to confess?
Hurry up, I promise I won’t hold it against you.”
Lin Xi immediately shook her head, indicating there was nothing more.
Regardless of his anger, Gu Fan decided to take the plunge, as rescuing Lin Xi was more important.
“Alright, who asked you to be my responsibility.
I’ll just drink it.” Gu Fan steeled himself, mustered the courage, went to the poolside, pinched his nose, and prepared to take a sip.
Qian Ye objected, “You haven’t explained everything yet.
Don’t touch anything here, not even a drop of water.”
Gu Fan was intimidated by Qian Ye’s sternness, he immediately retreated and whispered, “Oh my goodness, why was your past life so fierce?
You’re nothing like her.”
“No choice, someone who becomes an Empress always has some amount of authority.” Lin Xi was helpless, and could only laugh at Qian Ye’s sternness.
