Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Chapter 104: The Man Behind the Scenes in Prince Zhong’s Mansion

Zhu Yanxiao continued to explain: "Shenshen, the second time I saw you in the palace, I suspected that your soul had taken over the body of Miss Shen Er."

"Ziyuan knew it at that time?" Shen Shenshen was a little unconvinced.

"I accidentally found an ancient book [Guixu Karma] that records ancient secrets in the Moyuan Pavilion in the palace. It is because of this book that I have the opportunity to go to Taixu Realm to find you."

"So Ziyuan, aren't you surprised that there are ancient mystical books in the royal palace's library? Moreover, you just happened to find the relevant ancient books when you were looking for them?"

Zhu Yanxiao suddenly realized what was wrong: it was too easy, all the answers were too easy to reveal.

"God, God means..."

"The person in Prince Zhong's mansion is the one behind the scenes. Moreover, this person is an enemy, not a friend. I just don't know what his intention is."

Zhu Yanxiao began tapping his index finger on the table, thinking about possible candidates in his mind.

"Also, I think my soul leaving my body was not caused by Mu Yejun's forbidden technique. It was that person who took advantage of my soul's weakness and cast a spell from Guixu Karma on me."

Zhu Yanxiao paused and said, "What the Godshen means is..."

"Because my soul did not return to the original world, but went to Taixu Realm."

"I remember someone in the book wrote a note with red cinnabar: if the soul enters the Taixu Realm, it is very dangerous because it will be locked in the Taixu Realm and cannot escape. Suppose... the person behind the scenes did it on purpose, just to lock up your soul?"

Shen Shen guessed, "Let's guess more boldly: the person behind the scenes knew that you liked me, so he let you 'accidentally' get the secret book. It just so happened that Mu Yejun used the forbidden technique of the Burning Shadow Hall on me, causing my original soul to be damaged. This person took the opportunity to let my soul leave my body, locked my soul in the Taixu Realm, and then lured you to use the secret technique to save me, and then locked your soul."

A good move that kills two birds with one stone.

Zhu Yanxiao and Shen Shenshen are both extremely smart. After sorting out their thoughts, they were terrified when they thought about it.

There is someone who doesn't want their lives, but their souls.

They both fell silent at the same time.

Shen Shen broke the silence and said to Zhu Yanxiao: "Ziyuan, I have decided to marry you. We can't just sit there and wait for death. We need to work together to find out the mastermind. Otherwise, it will be too painful to be haunted by invisible people at any time."

"God." Zhu Yanxiao had mixed feelings. "I am very happy that you are willing to marry into the palace and become the Crown Prince's consort. However, I am also a little sad that you are marrying me not because you like me, but because you have other intentions."

"Ziyuan." Shen Shenshen hooked her hands around his neck and looked at him tenderly. She herself did not realize how seductive this look was in Zhu Yanxiao's eyes.

"Even if there is no one behind the scenes, I am willing to marry you. The prince is willing to enter the Taixu Realm for me. The gods will always remember this sincerity."

Zhu Yanxiao stared at the girl intently and couldn't help but think of the dress that Shen Shenshen wore when she slept in Taixu Territory. His Adam's apple rolled uncontrollably a few times.

Shen Fox Shenshen was a fatal attraction to him.

His voice was a little hoarse: "I will let my father propose marriage when I return home today, as long as you are willing."

"I do, Ziyuan."

Zhu Yanxiao was already distracted at this moment. By the time he reacted, their lips were already entangled, inseparable.

His hands uncontrollably began to take off Shen Shenshen's clothes, but when they reached her shoulders, his fingers paused.

All I saw was that the half of Shen Shenshen's shoulders below his neck were covered with kiss marks of varying depths and sizes.

It was left by Mu Yejun that day.

Those kiss marks on the skin as white as mutton-fat jade were like dancing flames, burning Zhu Yanxiao's heart.

Shen Shenshen found that Zhu Yanxiao's eyes were staring at the shoulders whose clothes he had taken off, and he remained silent. The air around them seemed to suddenly become cold. She lowered her head and looked at the kiss marks on her body, a little dazed. She had completely forgotten about these marks.

Zhu Yanxiao closed his eyes, exhaled, and as if sighing, he stopped any further action and silently put the clothes that he had taken off on the person in his arms back on.

"Ziyuan, you, don't be angry." Shen Shenshen didn't know how to start.

"God, I'm angry at myself for not being able to protect you and letting you suffer." Zhu Yanxiao looked at her tenderly, gently embraced the woman he loved and leaned against his chest: "No, I promise there won't be a next time."

Shen Shenshen leaned her beautiful face against the prince's chest, taking in the refreshing and familiar scent.

Zhu Yanxiao lowered his head and kissed Shen Shenshen's lips. This time the kiss was gentle and tender, without any predatory meaning. It was like the low whispers between lovers, making people linger in happiness.

After their lips parted, Zhu Yanxiao spoke: "Shenshen, I have written the letter of promise I made to you in the carriage a few days ago. I promise that from today until the day you become the Crown Prince's Consort, I will not touch you except for kissing. Otherwise, what is the difference between me and Mu Yejun?"

"Ziyuan, thank you!" she murmured softly, seeming to feel relieved.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Yanxiao reluctantly said, "Shenshen, let's go. Let's go to the first floor to see the results of the carpenters' work over the past few days."

"Okay." Shen Shenshen stood up and said to Zhu Yanxiao playfully, "We have to fall in love and make money."

Zhu Yanxiao chuckled and scratched her nose with his index finger: "Money-grubber."

The two stood up and walked out of the private room one after the other to the first floor. Xingyun, Liushui and Luhen saw their two masters coming downstairs and had already stood up and waited.

Shen Shen walked to Lu Hen and said, "Lu Hen, go make a pot of tea. I'm thirsty."

The little maid turned around and went to work.

Zhu Yanxiao took Shen Shenshen to see the combined wooden display cabinet made by the carpenter.

Not only was the cabinet built according to the design Shen Shen had drawn, but even the colored glaze that needed to be installed on it had been installed. Although the installed colored glaze was not as transparent as the glass in Shen Shen's previous life, it was already the pinnacle of Eastern inlay craftsmanship, and the craftsman's craftsmanship was so exquisite that it looked even more luxurious.

Looking at these cabinets, Shen Shenshen's eyes lit up with happiness. Her plan was about to come true. After confirming the size, they could be mass-produced.

The two returned to the first floor hall and sat down. Lvhen's tea was already brewed. She knew that the young lady and the prince still had secrets to tell each other, so she turned around to help Xingyun and Liushui in the corner to organize the wooden cabinets. Zhu Yanxiao and Shen Shenshen began to discuss the renovation of the entire building.

No one noticed that a beautiful woman dressed in luxurious noble clothing walked into Heyin Building through the door that was only one-third open. She quickly glanced at the hall and immediately saw a handsome man in a sky-blue gown holding up a teapot to help the woman sitting next to him pour tea, and smiled at the woman in a very doting manner.

The beautiful woman suddenly became furious. She didn't care about her image as a noble lady at all. She rushed in front of the two men with her skirt lifted up, and waved her hand towards Shen Shenshen's face, saying.

"Shen Shen, how dare you seduce my brother Ziyuan."
