211 Chapter 211: Women Only Affect Sword Speed

...

"Where am I?"

Opening his eyes, Zeng Yi found himself lying on a large bed, looking a bit confused as he observed the unfamiliar room.

"I am in the Fang family in Skywater City."

"What the f*ck!"

Remembering something, Zeng Yi's expression suddenly changed. He immediately jumped out of bed and looked around the room, turning his head left and right. Apart from himself, he saw no one else in the room, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Thank goodness, no cliché plot happened." Zeng Yi patted his chest, feeling a sense of relief.

Judging from the situation, Zeng Yi already understood that he had experienced a blackout last night. From last night until now, the only faint memory in his mind was drinking with Fang Zhenlin. He had no clear recollection of what happened afterwards.

Fortunately, no cliché plot occurred, such as waking up to find a girl beside him. If that were the case, it would be hard for Zeng Yi to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"Xiao Ju! Where are you, Xiao Ju?"

Recalling, Zeng Yi couldn't help but call out the name of his little kitty, looking somewhat dazed on the bed while searching underneath it.

"Xiao Ju!"

Bent over on the ground, Zeng Yi suddenly froze as he put his head under the bed, realizing that Xiao Ju was still at Shrek Academy. He couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"I must have been really drunk. My consciousness is still a bit clouded."

Getting up from the ground, Zeng Yi couldn't help but find it funny, raising his hand to pat his slightly headache-ridden head.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At this moment, a series of light knocking sounds came from outside the room, followed by a gentle and pleasant voice.

"Sir Zeng, I am coming in."

Zeng Yi found the voice familiar—it was Fang Nan's maid, Jiao'er.

Zeng Yi was puzzled, but still said, "Come in."

Click~

The door was gently pushed open, and Jiao'er walked in carrying a basin of hot water.

"Sir Zeng, let me help you freshen up." Zeng Yi, who was still wondering what she was doing, saw Jiao'er approaching him with a warm towel.

"Wait, don't move!" Seeing her like this, Zeng Yi quickly called out.

"What's wrong, sir?" Jiao'er was taken aback, standing in place.

"I can do it myself, you can go." Zeng Yi quickly snatched the hot towel from Jiao'er's hand, wiped his face, and then walked towards the basin of hot water.

Seeing Zeng Yi's nervous look, Jiao'er couldn't help but smile. From their interaction last night, she knew that Zeng Yi was easy to get along with, humble and gentle towards her mistress. Even towards a maid like herself, he was respectful and kind, which made her feel favorably towards Zeng Yi.

A strong, handsome, and gentle man like him, how could any girl not develop a favorable impression?

"Who brought me back to the room last night?"

As she watched Zeng Yi's back with a dreamy expression, Jiao'er suddenly frowned, shook her head, and snapped herself back to reality.

"It was Young Master Fang Lin."

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yi felt a sense of relief. It was good that it wasn't a girl who brought him back. Otherwise, if he had done something indecent while drunk, it would have been a big embarrassment.

But that Fang Lin, he should have a normal sexual orientation.

Remembering Fang Lin's enthusiastic attitude towards him yesterday, Zeng Yi's mood sank.

Which man, upon seeing another man who is even more handsome and charming, would not show a hint of envy? According to the situation, it was quite abnormal for this not to happen!

Could it be that he really...

Thinking like this, Zeng Yi couldn't help but shudder.

No, no, no, I must be overthinking it. Ah, the trouble with getting drunk!

Observing Zeng Yi's occasional head shake and nod, Jiao'er found it strange.

"Do you have any other requests?" When she turned around and saw Jiao'er still standing there, Zeng Yi asked.

Jiao'er said, "Miss Shui asked me to inform you that she is waiting for you outside the main gate and wants you to come as soon as possible."

"Miss Shui? Who is that?" Zeng Yi was a bit confused.

Seeing Zeng Yi's puzzled expression, Jiao'er felt speechless. They had met yesterday, had dinner together, how could he forget after just one night?

"It's Miss Shui Bing'er!" Jiao'er reminded him.

At the mention of this person's name, Zeng Yi suddenly understood and remembered her.

However, why does she want me to come? We are not that familiar; we hardly spoke a few words yesterday. Our relationship, if described more accurately, is that of familiar strangers.

"Okay, I'll be there in a moment."

After Jiao'er left the room, Zeng Yi's expression became worried.

Could it be that after getting drunk last night, I did something to her? Or did I promise her something?

Impossible! I am an upright person, and I definitely don't have any impure thoughts. They say drunk words are true, but even if I was drunk, I wouldn't do anything inappropriate.

Although Zeng Yi believed this, he still felt uneasy and anxious in his heart.

No, I have to run!

Just as Zeng Yi was about to leave, he smelled the scent of alcohol on himself and quickly retreated.

"I should take a shower first."

Under the shower in the bathroom, even the slightly muddled consciousness was washed away by the cool water flow. Zeng Yi emerged from the bathroom with a refreshed look, feeling extremely energetic. After getting dressed and equipping his sword, he walked out of the room.

Looking up at the sun in the sky, the early morning sunlight didn't feel scorching. Its warm rays showered Zeng Yi, leaving him with an indescribable sense of comfort.

Taking a step forward, Zeng Yi's figure disappeared from the spot and reappeared on top of a tree a hundred meters away.

Just as he was about to move again, Zeng Yi felt that something was not quite right. He felt that he should go and check it out. After all, he was the one who got drunk and said those things himself. If he just left without a word, it wouldn't be good.

He needed to clarify things with her first, see what it was all about. If it was too outrageous, then he would run!

Thinking like this, Zeng Yi changed direction and ran towards the Fang family's main gate.

Zeng Yi's figure flickered a few times and suddenly appeared in front of the Fang residence's gate, where a blue-haired girl was standing quietly, waiting for someone.

This girl was Shui Bing'er. Today, she was wearing a light blue outfit that accentuated her graceful figure. However, Zeng Yi felt a sense of familiarity with this outfit. He had seen someone wearing it on the streets of Skywater City yesterday.

That's right, she is a student from the Skywater Spirit Master Academy, and this should be their uniform.

Seeing Zeng Yi's sudden appearance, Shui Bing'er's face showed a hint of surprise, but it quickly subsided. She calmly looked at Zeng Yi with her beautiful eyes and said lightly, "You're here."

"Uh, hello." feeling her cold gaze, Zeng Yi couldn't help but feel a bit nervous.

Zeng Yi could clearly sense that Shui Bing'er's expression was somewhat different from yesterday. Although she had a cold demeanor yesterday, it was natural. Ice-cold was her temperament, and it was calm.

But today, this coldness was clearly directed at him.

This made Zeng Yi even more flustered.

"So, Miss Shui, what can I do for you?" Zeng Yi asked nervously.

"It seems like you are concerned about something you said while drunk?" Shui Bing'er flicked a glance at Zeng Yi and continued walking.

"Heh, I know that." Zeng Yi smiled, trying to play it off.

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but twitch her mouth. If he knew, why did he say that?

"I mean, whatever nonsense I said while drunk, please don't take it to heart. It was all drunken rambling and not to be taken seriously."

After hearing Zeng Yi's words, Shui Bing'er paused, her steps coming to a halt.

Seeing her like this, Zeng Yi became even more uneasy. Could it be that I really said something offensive or disrespectful to her last night?

"Do you have any business with me, Miss?" 

Seeing Zeng Yi's submissive appearance, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but find it funny. The difference between his behavior now and his confident demeanor from last night was quite stark.

"Nothing, you didn't say anything, so there's no need to worry." Shui Bing'er glanced at Zeng Yi and continued walking, but in her mind, she couldn't help but recall last night's scene.

"Young man, do you have someone you're interested in?"

"What do you mean by 'interested'?"

"Well, like a girlfriend."

"Oh, that's what you mean. No, why would I need a girlfriend?"

Fang Zhenlin was speechless, but it seemed like he was really drunk. Then he burst into laughter, "Since that's the case, how about my granddaughter, Bing'er?"

Bang~

Suddenly, Fang Zhenlin felt something hit his head, but as he was already drunk, he didn't pay it much attention.

"Hahaha, Brother, your granddaughter is indeed beautiful, a stunning beauty." Zeng Yi laughed heartily, looking at Bing'er blushing with anger beside him.

"Brother, what do you mean by that? Do you want to introduce your granddaughter to me?"

"No, no, no. That's not right." Zeng Yi was muddled by alcohol, shaking his head while resting his hand on Fang Zhenlin's shoulder. "I call you Brother, and our relationship allows for this. Your granddaughter is my granddaughter too. I would have to be extremely shameless to make a move on my own granddaughter, don't you think, Brother?"

Bang~

Zeng Yi, in a drunken state, suddenly felt something hit him on the head, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

"Bing'er, don't worry, they are both drunk. Why compare them to two drunkards? Hahahaha~"

Bing'er was so angry that a cold chill radiated from her body. If her aunt and uncle hadn't held her back, she would have turned these two into ice cubes on the spot.

"It's true, little Brother. You have a point. I'm a bit confused. I didn't expect this." Fang Zhenlin laughed heartily. Then he pointed at himself and said, "What about me? How should I introduce you to my granddaughter? My daughter won't do either. The women of our generation are all at the auntie level now."

"Oh, Brother, you don't need to worry about that. With my strong abilities and the number one handsome face in the world, would I have any trouble finding a partner? Back when I was in the academy, many beautiful girls had crushes on me. Their looks were not inferior to our granddaughter's."

"Really? I didn't expect my little Brother to be such a playboy."

"Hahaha, have you seen my appearance and aura? Can those young girls resist?" Zeng Yi became a bit arrogant.

"But I didn't accept their affections. Brother, you know that I am a man who goes with the flow. How could I stop for a woman?"

"Women only affect the speed of my sword!"

Hearing Zeng Yi's words, Fang Zhenlin couldn't help but be shocked, bursting into laughter.

"Hahaha, your understanding is truly outstanding, little Brother! I have high hopes for you. A man should have aspirations! Come, let's drink!"

"Come on, Brother, let's continue!"

Bang~
