"Aren’t you the same?"
Xiao YiFeng looked at Tang Shengyi and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your hospitality, but do you know where there might be an empty house to live in around here?"
Tang Shengyi asked Xiao Yifeng.
"There are lots of empty houses in Tianhai."
"I mean the kind that’s free."
"A free house? Don’t you have any money?"
Xiao Yifeng asked in surprise.
"No, I’ve never used the kind of money you have here."
Tang Shengyi said indifferently. She had been raised in the Tang Sect and never needed to use money. She was completely unaware of worldly affairs and didn’t carry a penny with her.
That’s why, when Xiao Yifeng had invited her for a meal earlier, she had agreed without any hesitation because she had no money to eat.
"Pfft... You couldn’t possibly be from Mars or a time traveler, could you?"
Dong Li looked at Tang Shengyi, his face expressing speechlessness.
Xiao Yifeng became even more certain that this mysterious beauty must be a disciple from some power within the Martial Arts World; otherwise, she wouldn’t have said what she did.
"Mars? Time travel? What are those?"
Tang Shengyi asked, looking puzzled.
Dong Li’s mouth twitched, and he fell silent.
"Miss Tang, if you don’t have money, you won’t be able to find a place to live. Or maybe you have other things that you can trade for money to rent a place?"
Xiao Yifeng then said.
"All I have are these things."
Tang Shengyi rummaged through her belongings and took out a bunch of bottles and jars.
Dong Li asked, his face full of curiosity.
"Poisons. These are all various poisons I’ve concocted, including Soul Severing Powder, Life Hastening Pill, and even Top-Grade Crane Crest Red!"
Tang Shengyi listed them one by one.
Upon hearing this, Dong Li jumped, his face turning slightly pale and his eyes filled with shock.
"All of these... all of them are poisons?"
Dong Li asked in disbelief.
"Yes, do you want some? I’ll give you a bottle, guaranteed no cure, instant death!"
Tang Shengyi offered a bottle to Dong Li.
Dong Li waved his hands frantically, his face marked with fear.
Xiao Yifeng looked at the assortment of poisons with a glint of something unusual in his eyes.
"Can these things be exchanged for money?"
Tang Shengyi asked Xiao Yifeng.
"That... probably not."
Xiao Yifeng shook his head.
"Then how about I stay with you?"
Tang Shengyi suddenly suggested.
Xiao Yifeng had just taken a sip of wine and sprayed it out, looking at Tang Shengyi with an astonished expression.
"I said I might as well stay with you. Do you have an empty room?"
Tang Shengyi asked Xiao Yifeng.
"Well... that doesn’t seem appropriate. After all, you’re a woman, and I’m a man; it would look bad if word got out."
Xiao Yifeng said, his mouth twisting. Although the woman was incredibly beautiful and living together wouldn’t be so bad, the problem was that he had a fiancée at home. If he brought another woman home, there would be hell to pay.
"What’s wrong with that? I’m just staying at your place, not doing anything else. Besides, you wouldn’t dare do anything to me, right?"
Tang Shengyi glanced at Xiao Yifeng.
Xiao Yifeng shook his head. This woman with her mysterious background could very well be from some major power in the Martial Arts World; furthermore, her strength was terrifying, and she was knowledgeable about deadly poisons. There was no way he would dare to touch her.
"Well, that settles it then. Since you’re a martial artist and also the first person I met here, and I have nowhere else to stay, I’ll have to live with you. I’ll repay you in the future,"
Tang Shengyi said directly.
"But my fiancée lives with me, and if you were to move in, I’d need to get her approval first."
Xiao Yifeng could only say helplessly.
"Then take me to meet her, I’m sure I can get her consent."
Tang Shengyi said confidently.
Watching Tang Shengyi behave this way, it was clear she wouldn’t rest until she got her way.
Xiao Yifeng had no choice but to agree to take her to meet Ye Yaxin; after all, with the other’s formidable strength, Xiao Yifeng was not sure he could defeat her, so he could only go along with her wishes.
After leaving the restaurant, Dong Li said to Xiao Yifeng, who was walking in front, "Boss, are you really going to let this woman stay at your place?"
"Although she’s a great beauty, isn’t this woman a bit too terrifying? She kills at the drop of a hat, and she carries around all those frightening poisons. I really don’t know where she popped up from. You have to be careful!"
"Don’t worry, it’s nothing."
Xiao Yifeng said with a smile as he shook his head.
After parting ways with Dong Li, Xiao Yifeng took Tang Shengyi to Ye Corporation.
Upon reaching Ye Corporation, Xiao Yifeng introduced Tang Shengyi to Ye Yaxin.
Ye Yaxin looked at Tang Shengyi with a puzzled expression.
"You must be his fiancée, right?"
Before Xiao Yifeng could speak, Tang Shengyi looked at Ye Yaxin and said.
Ye Yaxin nodded, still not understanding the situation.
"I want to live with him!"
Tang Shengyi mentioned, pointing at Xiao Yifeng.
Hearing Tang Shengyi’s somewhat ambiguous remark, the corner of Xiao Yifeng’s mouth twitched.
First, Ye Yaxin’s expression turned to shock, then her body emitted a cold aura, her face became cold, and her eyes darted a chilling light towards Xiao Yifeng.
"You’ve misunderstood, she doesn’t mean it that way."
Xiao Yifeng quickly explained in an attempt to prevent Ye Yaxin from misunderstanding and potentially causing trouble.
"No, I do not agree!"
After hearing Xiao Yifeng’s words, Ye Yaxin immediately refused.
How could she allow a woman, especially such a beautiful one, to move in for no good reason? And with Xiao Yifeng’s lecherous nature, it would be like inviting a wolf into the house.
"Look, Miss Tang, as you can see, my fiancée disagrees, so there’s nothing I can do."
Xiao Yifeng spread his hands helplessly in front of Tang Shengyi.
"I just want to stay for a while, I won’t do anything."
Tang Shengyi frowned slightly, insisting.
Ye Yaxin shook her head firmly.
"Fine, forget it. But if anything happens to the people here, don’t come looking for me."
Tang Shengyi said indifferently.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Ye Yaxin looked confused.
"Did you poison the staff of Ye Corporation?"
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes narrowed, and a purple glint flashed through them.
Ye Yaxin was taken aback, her eyes filled with shock.
"You’re quite perceptive to have noticed it so quickly,"
Tang Shengyi’s face revealed a hint of a smile.
"Wasn’t that a bit too much?"
Xiao Yifeng said, his own surprise evident. He didn’t even notice how Tang Shengyi had poisoned them. Only after he heard her words, thinking back to the array of poisons she had shown earlier, did he use his x-ray vision to check and discovered a strange toxin on the staff they had encountered upon arriving, which he had completely failed to detect. This woman was truly formidable.
