How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 46: Pei Shu’er, You’re Just Going Out Like That, Huh? [Bonus - ]

Ma He saw the coldness in Pei Shu’er’s eyes, and recalling the ruthlessness when she stomped on his hand just now, he couldn’t help but shiver.

He was just doing a job for money; it wasn’t worth losing his life over it.

"I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. It was Madam Tang who gave us 20 taels of silver to deal with you."

Pei Shu’er’s face showed no surprise, and she coldly laughed.

"How about this, I’ll give you forty taels, and the three of you, along with the one who ran away, will give Madam Tang a hard time. You don’t really need to sleep with her, but make sure she looks like she has been."

The words were convoluted, but the three understood.

Pei Shu’er smiled gently: "So, will you agree?"

The four hesitated, as Madam Tang wasn’t as isolated as Pei Shu’er; she had her family behind her.

Pei Shu’er smiled and gently nudged Ma He’s other hand with her foot, as if she was going to crush his other hand too.

Ma He felt his scalp tingle; with both hands crippled, even if he survived the exile, he wouldn’t make it in the exile land.

Pei Shu’er said, "How about it?"

The three dared not refuse, and Pei Shu’er nodded with satisfaction, throwing them forty taels of silver.

"If you do well, I’ll cover your wounds. But if you get caught and betray me, you might as well remain disabled for life."

Upon hearing Pei Shu’er’s last words, the three’s eyes lit up, and they dared not act difficult, immediately expressing their loyalty.

"Miss Pei, rest assured, we will definitely complete this task for you."

Pei Shu’er nodded: "Go quickly, and tell Liu Di not to tell Madam Tang recklessly."

The three immediately left, and Pei Shu’er headed back the way she came. She had just walked a bit when a strong hand grabbed her, pulling her into a dark rock crevice.

She thought it was Liu Di hiding, and with a sharp glance, she immediately turned to defend herself and started grappling with the person.

In modern times, she had learned some combat skills, but constrained by her weak body from before, she couldn’t utilize them effectively. Now, with the Spiritual Spring Water still in effect, she was able to fight fiercely.

Because there wasn’t much light here, Pei Shu’er was completely relying on her instincts to fight.

And listening to the sounds by her ear, when this person swung his fists, there was even a whistling sound, indicating this person’s high martial prowess and agility.

Pei Shu’er was momentarily dazed when facing him.

This was different from what she observed about Liu Di; it seemed Liu Di had hidden his strength.

Could this Liu Di be the most formidable among the four?

The combat power difference among these people was too great.

Even after drinking the Spiritual Spring Water, she gradually fell short. As she attempted to escape, she was grabbed by the hand, and the person pulled her into his arms.

A faint woody incense scent enveloped her, accompanied by the solid chest of a man and the slight rise and fall of his breath.

Pei Shu’er’s intuition sounded alarms; she was about to retaliate when she heard a cold snort.

The man’s breath brushed against her neck, causing a slight ticklish sensation for Pei Shu’er.

"Pei Shu’er, you intended to leave like this? Hmm?"

The last "hmm" ended on a rising note, with a tantalizing magnetic quality.

"Tang Zan?"

Pei Shu’er raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but relax.

Tang Zan was silent for two seconds, followed by the rustling sound of fabric, and then he spoke again.

"Put on this clothing."

Saying this, he handed a piece of clothing to her.

It was only then that Pei Shu’er began to notice her appearance; her cotton-padded clothes had been stripped off by those three.

Now she was dressed in her undershirt, with her collarbone exposed, and even her dudou seemed partly visible.

In modern times, this wasn’t too revealing, not even compared to crop tops and bikinis.

But in the ancient era, it was too revealing and might even result in being punished by drowning in a pig’s cage.

If she showed up like this, her reputation would surely suffer more.

The garment was what Tang Zan had taken off, still carrying his scent.

Not unpleasant, like the scent of long-used sandalwood, a lingering aroma.

A kind of woody fragrance.

After putting it on, Pei Shu’er felt a bit warm, and she couldn’t help blushing; it was her first time wearing a man’s clothes.

Until they both walked to a place where the moonlight could reach them did Pei Shu’er notice that near the gap in the rocks earlier, Liu Di was indeed tied, hanging upside down from a tree.

Pei Shu’er didn’t say much, walked over, and gave Liu Di a fierce beating, dislocating every knuckle in his right hand.

Only then did she smile and ask, "Did you hear what I said to Zhang Chao and the others just now?"

Liu Di, sweating profusely from pain, nodded.

"Understood, Miss Pei, I won’t spill a word, and I will cooperate with them properly."

Pei Shu’er smiled and nodded: "Go on, and don’t try to set your own bones; if you’re inexperienced, the bones might knit wrong, and you’ll end up half-crippled."

If wealth couldn’t move one’s heart, what about their own body?

"Believe your future matters more, you’re a smart person."

Pei Shu’er was just ensuring nothing went wrong.

Until Liu Di left did Pei Shu’er turn around and realize Tang Zan was watching her unblinkingly.

Pei Shu’er was different from what he imagined; facing others, she always knew how to interact appropriately.

But when facing him, she mostly acted detached and rational.

At times, like a bewitching fox, but when she acted fox-like, it was usually to negotiate.

Not purely to seduce him.

This differed from the investigation, portraying her as a woman who only thought about marrying the Third Prince.

Pei Shu’er was more intelligent than he imagined.

Or was it that only when dealing with the Third Prince did Pei Shu’er appear lost in love?

Pei Shu’er, how many faces does she possess?

Seeing Tang Zan in a daze, Pei Shu’er smiled gently.

"Tang Zan, what’s wrong?"

After all, Tang Zan had stopped her just now, preventing her from facing the public in disarray and being insulted.

So she showed Tang Zan a bit of kindness.

Of course, she believed Tang Zan likely didn’t want him to be embarrassed further.

Tang Zan shook his head.

Wearing only a thin outer garment, he walked to the place where Pei Shu’er had dealt with the three, picked up her cotton-padded clothes, and gathered some small pieces of cloth.

Then he walked up to Pei Shu’er, handing her the cotton-padded clothes.

She quickly took off Tang Zan’s clothing and handed it back to him.

Tang Zan looked at Pei Shu’er’s current appearance, and a slight blush appeared on his ears.

He turned aside to put on his clothes.

Then, limping, he walked ahead.

But then paused, probably realizing his limping would appear clumsy in Pei Shu’er’s eyes, he stopped again.

Only when Pei Shu’er advanced did he follow half a meter behind.

His deep eyes gazing at the girl ahead.

The more he interacted with her, the more she seemed like a mystery.

Too full of secrets.
