"WeiWei." On the surface, Bubai responded in a calm tone, but inwardly he was a bit surprised. How did he not notice her when he entered?
"Hehe! Correct!"
The soft hands were removed, and Bubai’s thoughts were clouded as he observed WeiWei twirling around in a red silky embroidered dress, dancing her way out from behind him. "Does Brother Bubai like what he sees?"
Indeed, it was a charming sight, but memories of WeiWei with the old man on the boat resurfaced, causing a discomforting lump to well up in Bubai's throat. He gritted his teeth and barely managed to squeeze out, "What are you doing here? Aren't you busy serving your new master?"
Not hearing the response she wanted, WeiWei pouted and stopped in place. However, when she noticed the hint of anger on Bubai's face, her eyes flashed slyly.
She shuffled up to him, grabbed his hand, and swung his arm back and forth, acting like a baby. "Isn't it because WeiWei misses Brother Bubai? As soon as master let WeiWei go, the first thought on WeiWei’s mind was Brother Bubai, so she came here to wait for him. If master had let WeiWei go earlier, WeiWei would-"
WeiWei's words seemed to have irked Bubai, and he felt anger building within him. "Master, master, after finally hugging his golden thigh, I’m afraid you have long forgotten about a useless mortal like me!"
"No!" WeiWei shook her head frantically. "How could WeiWei forget about Brother Bubai?"
Bubai sneered, flinging away WeiWei’s hands. "Heh. Do you think I will believe it? Why don’t you just go play with your new master?"
WeiWei’s eyes became watery. "Does Brother Bubai not want WeiWei anymore? Although master played with me all day, WeiWei made sure to wash up-"
"Shut up!" A sharp slap echoed, and a whimper escaped WeiWei as she fell to the ground. Touching her slapped cheek, she looked up with watery eyes, seeing Bubai unsheathing his silencer. "Brother Bubai-"
"I said shut up, you little fox!" Bubai, his eyes bloodshot with anger, grasped WeiWei’s head and silenced her...
10,000 words later...
Bubai's words came to an abrupt halt, his face contorting as a sudden, refreshing sensation swept through him, clearing his mind.
Merlin’s beard, this felt so good- Wait. What the heck is he doing?!
Beneath him, WeiWei sensed Bubai's loosening grip. Gasping for breath, her flushed face looked up at him, a sly, charming smile playing on her lips as she inquired, “Master, aren’t you going to continue punishing WeiWei?”
As her words reached his ears, Bubai experienced a sudden bout of dizziness, feeling desire coursing through him once more!

However, the horror of the situation preserved Bubai’s sanity, prompting him to draw another wisp of Qi to clear his mind.
Son of a witch, she got better.
And by ‘better’, Bubai didn't just mean her physical skills. Even her application of her mysterious charm ability had become much more skilled!
Bubai's golden finger was undeniably powerful, yet it wasn't omnipotent.
It possessed an instinctual defense against mysterious methods that sought to control his mind. In essence, no matter how formidable WeiWei's mysterious charm was, it could likely be easily cleared with a wisp of Qi.
However, the defense ability was tied to a program without a conscious mind to adapt to specific situations. This lacked the benefits of an intelligent guardian, which can provide high security against external influence.
On the bright side, this meant Bubai didn’t have to deal with a scary, conscious system. Bubai didn’t have to worry about his golden finger forcing missions or taking control of him, but in exchange, his golden finger also operated under rather rigid conditions.
For instance, the automatic cleanse function would only activate when a certain threshold was met. If this threshold wasn't reached, the seed wouldn't cleanse Bubai to conserve Qi- it was an optimal function Bubai couldn't argue against.
Yet, this rigidity left a loophole, a weakness that could be fatal, especially when dealing with cultivators using mysterious methods.
WeiWei, understanding that direct control would instantly awaken Bubai, opted for an indirect and subtle approach. Through her words and actions, she skillfully guided him to the edge of losing control but kept him teetering on the brink.
She deftly manipulated Bubai's emotions and desires, ensuring all his actions were left under his full control but still at her beck and call to achieve her goal, ultimately leading him to release into her. And as long as Bubai's lost of control didn't surpass a certain threshold, he would will never awaken!
Bubai himself couldn't determine this threshold, but after spending considerable time together, WeiWei seemed to have partially grasped it. This is what made her truly dangerous!
Fortunately, this time, it seemed WeiWei still hadn't fully grasped his threshold, and he managed to awaken. However, Bubai was well aware that he couldn't rely on luck every time.
If there was anything to blame, it was the fact that he had relaxed his vigilance against WeiWei after not playing together for a while. Normally, he would continually use wisps of Qi to manually clear his mind during the full course of all their interactions, even if it meant expending more Qi.
This time served as a wake-up call for Bubai. His golden finger couldn't save him every time; he still needed to rely on his own willpower and vigilance!
Sitting down between his legs, WeiWei pouted cutely, licking her lips before resting her head against Bubai’s legs. She looked up at him with her red eyes, a provocative gaze lingering in her expression. “So, who does Brother Bubai like better, your little fox WeiWei or that little Lan toilet of yours?”
When Bubai heard her question, he sweated a bit inside. After spending considerable time delving into cultural studies in his previous life, Bubai was well aware that when a woman asked this question, it often signaled big trouble.
And when he knew he was going to step on more than one boat in this life, he knew he had to prepare for such a situation. One of the rules taught in the Book of Hundred Disguises was that an actor must always be prepared.
So, even though the question caught him off guard, Bubai knew how to deflect it to maximize the benefits for his current role.
Petting WeiWei on the head, Bubai answered, “WeiWei is good, Xiao Lan is also good. But for me, the best is the always the one who can bring me the most benefits. Does WeiWei understand?”
Hearing his words, WeiWei’s eye curved into a smile as she licked her lips, “WeiWei understands.”
Her head then slipped along his thigh, leaning in and...
