Luo Yu heard Bi Bidong mention the sound coming from the cabinet.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Xiaowu was hiding well inside, so how could there suddenly be noise? Fortunately, the bumping sound of the cabinet woke him up; otherwise, driven by lust, he really would have fallen for Bi Bidong's charm.
If they were to engage in intellectual discourse here, what would the three hidden people think?
"It's nothing, you must be hearing things," Luo Yu said, trying to brush it off.
Bi Bidong shook her head.
"Impossible, I'm a martial artist, how could I have heard wrong?"
She got up from the bed, pointed at the cabinet, and frowned deeply, "Benefactor, are you hiding someone in the cabinet?"
Luo Yu's back was covered in cold sweat.
"How could that be.
What would I be doing hiding someone in the cabinet in the middle of the night?"
"Are you sure you're not lying to me?" Bi Bidong gave him a scrutinizing look that made Luo Yu feel uneasy.
But at this moment, he had to keep any secrets he could; after all, hiding someone's daughter in the cabinet of his room in the dead of night was indefensible.
"If there's no person, could it be that there's something unclean in that cabinet?" Bi Bidong said warily.
"Something unclean?" Luo Yu shook his head, "What era is it? We should believe in science."
Bi Bidong laughed and pointed at the Red Moon hanging in the sky outside the window.
"Martial artist, Red Moon, ferocious beast, even the gods are beginning to awaken. Isn't it quite normal for some unclean things to come out and cause trouble?"
Luo Yu shook his head.
"Nothing of the sort, rest assured."
Bi Bidong knew well that Xiaowu was inside the cabinet and she wasn't about to let it go, especially since she was close to capturing Luo Yu's body just moments ago, only to be interrupted by Xiaowu.
She was fuming inside.
"Benefactor, let me help you take a look," she offered.
Qin Lan and Jia Lan, hidden in the dark, breathed a sigh of relief.
This woman is terrifying.
She even intended to search Luo Gongzi's room. They were lucky not to have hidden inside the cabinet, or else they would've been in trouble.
As for the cabinet, they didn't believe anyone was inside.
They thought they were the first to arrive.
However, Xiaowu inside the cabinet was biting her lip; in a moment of jealousy, she had disrupted Bi Bidong's advances.
Now this woman was going to get back at her!
"Hey, don't go," Luo Yu saw Bi Bidong getting off the bed and reached out to stop her, but her jade-like hand was too slippery and slid out of his grasp.
"Tap tap—"
Bi Bidong took a few steps and arrived at the cabinet, her hands on the doors, ready to pull them open.
"Don't!"
Luo Yu's eyes bulged, shouting out in an attempt to stop her.
"Hmm?"
Bi Bidong didn't manage to open the cabinet; it was as if some force was holding the doors from inside.
"Benefactor, your cabinet really must have something unclean in it. I can't even open it!"
"Do you have any blades or weapons in your room? I'll help you cut it open," she suggested.
Luo Yu's scalp went numb at the thought. This was too ruthless, and he felt an ominous killing intent.
Xiaowu inside the cabinet was holding the doors from the inside with her hands clenched, preventing them from being opened, her pretty eyes going vertical.
This woman!
What deep hatred she must have to want to chop her alive.
How could someone chop up such a cute bunny!!!
"Just kidding, I'm a martial artist after all. How could I not be able to open a cabinet door?" Bi Bidong chuckled lightly.
She exerted more force with her hands.
"Swoosh—"
The cabinet door opened, revealing the delicate girl curled up inside, sitting atop the clothes Luo Yu had placed there.
Luo Yu covered his face with his hand; it was over, he couldn't bear to look as he was finally discovered.
As the cabinet door opened, Xiaowu wasn't panicking. She looked directly at Bi Bidong and said calmly, "Mom, good evening."
"Xiaowu, it's you!" Bi Bidong exclaimed in surprise, disbelief apparent in her tone, "Why are you here in the benefactor's room, what are you doing!"
"Doing what?" Xiaowu hummed, "I want to pursue the benefactor. What's wrong with coming over in the middle of the night? But what about you? Why did you come to sleep in the benefactor's bed?"
"The benefactor saved us, so is it wrong for me to come over to repay him?" Bi Bidong retorted.
"Repaying him by getting into his bed?" Xiaowu shot back.
Luo Yu was shocked.
He had thought the two women meeting would result in an awkward and quiet scene, yet they had started arguing.
His toes were already curling from embarrassment, yet these two still had the mood to fight?
This didn't look like a mother and daughter; they seemed like romantic rivals.
"If the benefactor likes it, how about he takes this skin of mine, I'm willing to offer my body for gratitude's sake," Bi Bidong said righteously.
Xiaowu scoffed, "To serve the benefactor, it should rather be someone young and innocent like me, not someone a bit too old like you, mom."
"Are you calling me old?" Bi Bidong never expected this little bunny to be so bold now.
How could she know Xiaowu had watched from the cabinet as Bi Bidong was feasting alone outside, already seething with frustration, her jealousy reaching its peak.
Meanwhile, the "mother and daughter" were fighting.
Underneath the bed and behind the curtains, the Qin Lan Sisters were growing restless and increasingly panicked.
Becuase neither of them knew when Xiaowu had slipped into the cabinet, what did that indicate?
It meant Xiaowu had already crawled into the cabinet before they arrived.
Qin Lan thought to herself, then didn't this girl hear everything about my confession?
Jia Lan murmured, "I was just grateful I arrived early, hearing Sister Lan's confession and avoiding embarrassment, but it turns out there's a mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind?"
Her own words had been heard clear as day.
The embarrassment both women felt now was indescribable, and they were extremely nervous, especially since Bi Bidong was unaware of their presence.
But surely Xiaowu knew.
If she exposed them, how could they face anyone!
What you're afraid of tends to happen.
Xiaowu and Bi Bidong, blinded by jealousy, spoke, "Hmph, do you really think there are only the two of us in this room?"
