Chapter 140: Zheng Jian: Dan Wanjing Climbed into My Bed (Please Subscribe)

That night, Zheng Jian changed into his night outfit, preparing to set off.

The moment he opened the door, Dan Wanjing suddenly rushed in, bumping straight into his arms...

Her face flushed instantly. She swore she didn’t do it on purpose; she only wanted to find Zheng Jian, but as soon as she pushed the door, it swung open...

The atmosphere grew awkward.

Their eyes met for a brief moment.

Zheng Jian looked at the slightly flustered Dan Wanjing and mused, “Xiao Jingjing, is this the new martial art you’ve learned?”

Dan Wanjing was speechless in an instant. This guy was the absolute master of ruining the mood! So annoying!

A wave of resentment surged from Dan Wanjing: +999.

Then she quickly stood up; the blush on her cheeks faded rapidly.

After a pause, she noticed Zheng Jian’s night outfit. “Where are you going dressed like that?”

Zheng Jian said, “Adults have their business; kids should mind their own.”

Dan Wanjing pouted, teary-eyed, “Are you abandoning me because I’m flat-chested? Maybe... I’ll let you touch?”

“No... I really have something to do. Besides, I’m afraid you’ll hurt my hand!” Zheng Jian almost froze on the spot.

— ∑( ̄□ ̄*||| —

Is it already this open-minded even before the Tang Dynasty?

“Seriously, I have something to do now!” Zheng Jian surrendered. This girl was younger than Xue Keren, smaller in size than Xue Keren, but her courage was anything but small!

“Then take me with you... I promise I won’t cause any trouble!”

Zheng Jian: “...”

You set that flag yourself. If you really come along and don’t cause trouble, I’ll stand on my head and have diarrhea!

How many dramas extend their plots with this cliché?

After years of roaming the martial world, could I agree?

The answer: No!

After all, I’m a genuine straight man.

So, with a swift move, Zheng Jian slipped past Dan Wanjing and left a single sentence behind: “Stay put at the inn, or I’ll send you back to the Dongming Sect!”

Dan Wanjing looked at the empty courtyard, “...”

This guy is such a jerk, totally unpredictable!

...

At the Yuhang branch of the Great Kun Gang.

Zheng Jian sneaked in under the cover of darkness.

The Great Kun Gang, one of the three major factions, was indeed vast; just the Yuhang branch covered a wide area, with houses stretching endlessly and pavilions everywhere.

Zheng Jian stealthily captured several informants in succession but got no clue about the whereabouts of the gang leader, Yun Yuzhen.

As midnight approached, Zheng Jian grew anxious.

Just then, he noticed a middle-aged man in fine clothes hurriedly walking outside. Feeling a stir in his heart, Zheng Jian quietly followed.

The man turned through several long corridors and had just stepped into a refined chamber when a shadow flashed before him, and a long sword was pressed against his throat.

“I ask, you answer! Where is Yun Yuzhen?” Zheng Jian demanded fiercely.

The man’s eyes darted nervously. “I... I don’t know. Please spare me, hero!”

Zheng Jian smiled, then suddenly reached out with his left hand and grasped the man’s throat. “Don’t know? Then die. I’ll ask someone else.”

The man’s face turned pale. “No, no, I’ll tell you!”

Zheng Jian loosened his grip slightly. “Then speak quickly.”

“The leader has been on a ship these past few days...”

“Good!” Zheng Jian nodded with a smile, then without hesitation, snapped the man’s neck.

“Not here, but on a ship...” Zheng Jian muttered, swiftly leaving the Great Kun Gang to rush outside the city.

...

Within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zheng Jian arrived at the docks outside the city. It was pitch black, with only a few ships still lit.

After much inquiry, Zheng Jian found the location of the Great Kun Gang’s ship and dashed off once more.

About three miles from the docks, he finally saw faint lights on the sea, estimating the ship to be roughly two miles offshore.

His heart sank. Without hesitation, he leapt into the sea and swam toward the large vessel.

“I must be crazy...” Zheng Jian muttered, swimming while grumbling.

After a while, he reached the ship, which was brightly lit and flying the Great Kun Gang’s flag. He finally relaxed.

Finding a shadowy spot, Zheng Jian stealthily emerged from the water and boarded the ship, avoiding the gang members on deck as he slipped into the cabin.

Holding his breath, he searched carefully, listening at each wooden door.

At last, from the innermost cabin, he heard the soft laughter of a woman.

“Brother Ce, look! What’s this?” The woman’s voice was sultry and teasing, stirring vivid imaginations.

“The Hanging Map of the Fragrant Drift! Sister Yuzhen, I knew you could get it! Come, come, I’ll reward you well...”

Then came the sounds of heavy breathing mingled with the rustle of clothing...

Enough said!

Zheng Jian: “...”

...

However, inside the room, the passionate moment was brief. Before things could escalate, Yun Yuzhen said, “Alright, don’t be so impatient! Let’s get down to business. After that, I can still run away... and everyone will have to listen to you.”

Upon hearing this, Dugu Ce released Yun Yuzhen and lit the lamp.

“Brother Ce, I’ve done the reconnaissance. Seven days from now, Dan Meixian will meet Li Yuan. The round trip will take at least ten days. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, we can definitely steal the account book.”

Yun Yuzhen giggled coquettishly, “Don’t touch me... I’m talking business.”

Dugu Ce still held her lovingly but said, “Do those two kids stand a chance?”

“Don’t worry, those two are cunning. Even Du Fuwei couldn’t catch them. They’ll definitely get the book. I’ll have men stage a feint attack on the Fragrant Drift; those two will escape in the chaos. The book will be ours for sure.”

Outside the door, Zheng Jian thought, “Double Dragons? So they’ve fallen into the Great Kun Gang’s hands after all...”

Having gathered the intel, Zheng Jian stopped eavesdropping on the ensuing struggle after the lights went out. He searched for the Double Dragons’ whereabouts but found nothing and had no idea where the Great Kun Gang was hiding them. He reluctantly slipped off the ship.

...

When Zheng Jian returned to the inn within the city, dawn was breaking.

Entering the room, he immediately saw Dan Wanjing still sitting there, waiting...

Drowsily, Dan Wanjing looked up, smiling at him. “You’re back...”

Zheng Jian couldn’t help but laugh and sigh, “I told you to wait at the inn. Why didn’t you just go to sleep? You actually waited here foolishly...”

She was truly foolish, and it made him feel a pang of tenderness.

Dan Wanjing shook her head. “I was afraid you’d leave me and not come back...”

Seeing the weary and worn look in her eyes, Zheng Jian softened his voice. “I’m back now. Go to sleep.”

Dan Wanjing, exhausted, staggered a few steps, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Zheng Jian: “...”

Get up!

This is my room!

This is my bed!
