บท 134: Around the Clock, Unending

While a spring breeze was gradually rising on Dye Workshop Street, autumn arrived early in the deep alley of Heavenly Water Bridge.

The lights in the courtyard of the deep residence had long been turned off, leaving only a lamp still burning in the back residence. The words of two women came from the window.

"You! Usually, I think you're outstanding and quite good at being the sect master. But why are you so disappointing today? Jingtang already came to your door and was just short of taking you to bed. You actually really let him go…"

"Jingtang was drugged…"

"So what if he's drugged? Isn't that perfect? When he wakes up tomorrow, won't he be completely devoted to you?"

"Sigh, they've already left…"

"That shrewish girl is probably making love with Jingtang. After she says some sweet words, Jingtang might dote on her even more…"

"I know. I'm going back to my room…"

…

Squeak!

The door opened and closed.
