The Husky and His White Cat Shizun

Chapter 336 Extra “Xue Meng’s blind date with the tea girl (6)”

Tragic, indeed.

That very evening, Mei Hanxue sat before a copper mirror, sighing as he gazed at the injuries on his face.

He couldnʼt even recall how he managed to carve out a path of survival from under Xue Mengʼs grasp during the day.

Observing Xue Mengʼs posture, it seemed as if he was eager to strip him of all his clothes and subject him to the extreme punishment of being roasted alive. Fortunately, it was the cat who was loyal enough, considering the numerous dried fish he had fed it these past few days, to bravely leap out and loudly meow, preventing Xue Ziming from almost devouring him alive.

Itʼs utterly heartbreaking.

”He really did go too far,” Mei Hanxue rubbed the bruise on the corner of his lip, hissing as he furrowed his brows. ”I only disguised myself as a woman to tease him a bit; he didnʼt need to take it so seriously and risk our lives.”

In the chamber, Mei Hanxue said coldly, ”Serves you right for always bullying him.”

Mei Hanxue glared at his sibling through the copper mirror. ”As if you donʼt bully him either. Whoʼs the one who seizes every chance to criticize him relentlessly? Besides, I donʼt just tease him; I also help alleviate his worries.”

”What burden have you shared with him?” Mei Hanxue said coldly. ”He was clearly on the verge of being driven mad just now. Didnʼt you notice?”

”I see,” Mei Hanxue paused, then suddenly chuckled. ”But honestly, his angry demeanor is incredibly amusing. Although my intention was to make his life more enjoyable, I couldnʼt resist teasing him.”

He spoke and got up, swaying to lean against the wooden table, bumping into Mei Hanxue. ”I was just playing around. Even though I play, I still know how to protect him.”

”...”

”You see, heʼs been happy ever since I came to the Peak of Life and Death these few days. He was only angry today. Three happy days for one angry day—I think Iʼm doing pretty well as his life partner.” Mei Hanxue blinked his emerald green eyes like a cat, his brows and eyes curving. ”So stop being unhappy.”

Mei Hanxueʼs face darkened. ”Donʼt ever trick him like that again.”

”Phew, alright then, next time Iʼll find something else to play with.”

”You—!”

”Iʼll include you this time.”

”...”

Mei Hanxue said sternly, ”All this trouble is because of you. You better figure out how to explain to Lord Ma tomorrow. Iʼm going to sleep.”

”Shouldnʼt we go out and tease Xue Meng one more time?”

”Donʼt you think you have enough scars on your face already?”

Mei Hanxue pouted, then boredly sprawled on his brotherʼs bed with a sigh. ”Sigh, whatʼs the point in life if you canʼt tease people?”

Mei Hanyueʼs face darkened. ”Who gave you permission to lie on my bed with your shoes on?!”

Since Xue Meng and Mei Hanxue were responsible for the mess, Peach Bud Manor was now in a frenzy. As the catalysts, whether intentional or not, they had to help Master Ma resolve this disaster.

Thus, despite his irritation, Xue Meng had no choice but to join the Mei brothers the next morning as they took to the skies on their swords, heading for West Lake.

Upon landing and arriving at the entrance of Peach Bud Manor, which was adorned with a large night cat totem, Xue Meng was stunned.

Beyond the grand and majestic manor, painted with wandering dragons and phoenixes, stood a crowd of common folk holding red wooden signs, shouting fiercely. Their voices were too jumbled to make out the words amidst the chaos. Just as he was staring in disbelief, a row of women in red dresses and green sleeves, heavily made up, turned the corner from the street. They were the madams from every brothel in Linʼan Prefecture.

These usually competitive madams, who would normally claw each otherʼs hair and step on one anotherʼs toes, were now united in their efforts, shouting in unison, ”Return our top courtesans!”

”Return our beauties!”

”Return our daughters!”

”Give me back my Tea Serving Maiden!”

Xue Meng had never encountered such a scene. He was fearless, but today, he found himself somewhat intimidated by these women. Mei Hanxue noticed his unease and patted his shoulder with a smile. ”Donʼt worry. Ladies are delicate creatures; they wonʼt devour you.”

As she spoke, a madam slammed her ample bosom with the force of breaking stones, creating an impressive display that left Xue Mengʼs eyes wide in astonishment.

The madam roared, ”Peach Bud Manor must deal with this demonic cultivator!”

”Thatʼs right!” Some commoners in the crowd joined in, ”Restore our daughtersʼ dignity!”
