In the morning, when Qing'er came over, she immediately noticed something unusual in the room, especially since she had just experienced it herself.
Seeing that Yue'er's complexion had noticeably improved and Huang Ye was still asleep, she quickly imagined the story of the previous night.
She found it strange, though. The young master had always been wary of Yue'er, so how could he have taken her?
Thinking about the events of that night, she understood that the young master might have completely lost his senses, only knowing how to take.
"Sister, I didn't sleep well last night, so I won't be coming over today."
Seeing Qing'er come over, Yue'er quickly found an excuse to leave, afraid of seeing Huang Ye wake up.
"Alright, I can take care of the young master by myself. You go back and rest!"
As soon as Yue'er left the room, Qing'er immediately nudged Huang Ye, and sure enough, he was sleeping like a log.
This guy really had a big heart; just a couple of days ago, he was adamantly guarding against Yue'er, and now he had ended up like this.
After tidying up the room a bit, she also climbed into bed, now really enjoying this feeling.
Huang Ye didn't wake up until the afternoon.
Groggily opening his eyes, he looked at Qing'er beside him, with a hint of confusion in his gaze.
Qing'er also widened her eyes, looking at him.
"Young master, you're awake!"
"Yeah! How did I fall asleep again? It's really strange. What time is it now?"
"Young master, it's already afternoon."
"What! I've slept for so long."
Hurriedly looking around, he felt himself below, finding nothing unusual, everything intact, and finally relaxed.
"Where's Yue'er?"
"She went back in the morning."
"Was she by my side all night?"
"That's right, she stayed with you all night."
"Strange, why didn't she make a move?" Huang Ye muttered to himself.
"Make a move? What do you mean by that?" Qing'er asked, puzzled.
"Uh, nothing."

"I was watching Yue'er all night, didn't expect to fall asleep."
"Young master, could it be that the technique you're cultivating has issues?"
"Very likely, it's the technique's problem."
"Why don't we try again?"
"Try what?"
"Seems like the young master really doesn't remember anything." Qing'er pouted in dissatisfaction.
"What should I remember?" Huang Ye expressed his confusion.
"Young master, don't you remember what happened these past two nights?"
"What happened? All I know is that I slept very deeply and for a long time, and remember nothing else."
"Young master, the night before last, you already took me, and last night, you took Yue'er!"
"What!" Huang Ye sat up abruptly, the information was too much for him to handle.
"You just said that I already did that with you."
"That's right, you can't deny it. I've even kept the bedsheets, and Yue'er surely kept hers too."
"How come I didn't feel anything?"
"How would I know? Anyway, you were like a madman, going for two whole hours without stopping, and then you just lay down and slept."
Huang Ye's mind was completely blank. How could this happen? He had unknowingly been with both of them.
Taking Qing'er was understandable, as the original owner owed this girl, but how did he end up with Yue'er, who harbored ill intentions toward him?
Damn it, what kind of situation is this?
He had originally planned to find out who was behind Yue'er and take them all down.
Now that he had messed things up, how could he take them all down?
How could he face this?
"Did Yue'er show any unusual behavior this morning?" Huang Ye asked with a bitter face.
"When I came over this morning, she said she wasn't feeling well and went back to rest."
"Young master, what should we do now? Yue'er doesn't know you're already awake."
"I don't know either. Actually, there's something I've been afraid to tell you because I didn't want you to worry. Yue'er has tried to kill me several times."
"The first time, she drugged me and then tried to stab me with a dagger, but I dodged it. It was the day your stomach hurt, and after you came into the room, she didn't succeed."
"There were two more times after that, she pulled out a dagger but, for some reason, gave up in the end."
Qing'er jumped out of bed, barefoot, to put on her embroidered shoes.
She was really frightened, especially since last night Huang Ye had completely lost consciousness, and just thinking about it made her break out in a cold sweat.
"Young master, why didn't you tell me earlier? That damn girl dared to try to kill you. I'm going to tell the madam right now." Qing'er said angrily.
With that, she finished putting on her shoes and headed straight for the door.
"Come back!" Huang Ye quickly stopped her, this girl was too impulsive.
Fortunately, although she was impulsive, she still listened to him.
"Why won't you let me report her?" Qing'er reluctantly stopped.
Huang Ye looked at Qing'er speechlessly, this girl's experience in the world was really naive.
"Get back in bed."
Qing'er was stunned, why get back in bed? Could it be...
No, she was thinking wrong again, in this situation, such thoughts shouldn't arise.
Obediently, she took off her shoes and got back in bed.
"Lie down properly and think about why I didn't tell you, why she wants to kill me, and why I'm pretending to be ignorant even though I'm awake."
"Young master, please don't make it difficult for me, there's too much to think about." Qing'er said, feeling aggrieved.
"Silly girl, remember, impulsiveness is the devil. Always think twice before acting."
"Okay, okay, I'll remember."
"Your experience in the world is too shallow, you can't hide your thoughts, that's why I didn't tell you."
"Tell me, why does Yue'er want to kill me?"
"Well, just catch her and ask directly. Attempting to assassinate the master is a capital offense."
"What if you report her and she denies it?"
"Well..., I've heard that you can use torture when interrogating criminals."
"Torture, you really thought of that."
"Let me ask you, why are you good to me?"
"I've been by the young master's side since I was little, the young master is like family to me, that's why I'm good to you."
"You see, that's your reason for being good to me, and you can answer immediately."
"Let me ask you again, does Yue'er have any grudges against me?"
"She shouldn't have, she hasn't been in the household for long."
"Exactly, she has no grudges against me, yet she wants to kill me. What's her motive?"
"What is a motive?"
"A motive is like the reason you just mentioned."
"Then I understand, maybe she wants to kill you for money."
"Alright, now you've analyzed one possibility, and you haven't even interrogated her."
"You can also analyze other possibilities, like whether she's being coerced or if someone has something on her."
"If you analyze all the possibilities first, wouldn't it be easier to judge the truth when you interrogate her?"
"Young master, what kind of brain do you have?" Qing'er reached out her small hand to touch Huang Ye's head.
"Don't interrupt."
"No matter the motive, Yue'er must be under someone's orders."
"If we capture Yue'er, it might alert the people behind her."
"If Yue'er doesn't know who's ordering her, we won't be able to find out who wants to kill me, and the danger will always be there."
"That's why I'm continuing to pretend to be ignorant, to find out who's ordering her."
"Ah! I thought the young master stopped me because you couldn't bear to kill her after being intimate with her."
"What nonsense." Huang Ye knocked on Qing'er's little head.
"Let's continue analyzing Yue'er. The fact that she didn't make a move the last two times shows she's also hesitant."
"Especially last night, I was completely unguarded, she had plenty of time to kill me."
"If she were a real assassin, you would have found a corpse this morning."
"She should know that this is a dead-end situation."
"That's also why she's hesitant, because she knows if I die, she would be silenced too."
"The young master makes a lot of sense when you put it that way."
"What do you mean 'a lot of sense'? I'm very smart."
