This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 331 Will you take responsibility for me?
The bright moon hangs high in the night sky.

After leaving the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Tanchun and her sisters returned to the Grand View Garden, surrounded by maids and nannies.

The sound of firecrackers went off one after another outside, and the sounds of laughter and playfulness drifted over the courtyard wall.

A festive and lively atmosphere prevailed.

No one was sleepy; they chatted and laughed, and someone suggested going to Lotus Fragrance Pavilion for a while.

Shi Xiangyun said, "It's so cold outside. Aren't you afraid of freezing if you sit on the water? Why don't you go sit with Daiyu? It'll be warmer there."

Jia Yingchun said, "Daiyu is weak, she's probably already asleep by now."

Jia Xichun laughed and said, "How can he be sleeping so early? He's probably hiding in his room again, secretly reading the books written by Young Master Luo."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Jia Tanchun also said, "Today is New Year's Eve, and we are having a lively celebration. Daiyu is all alone and may be thinking of her parents. She just came back early, and I'm sure she's feeling sad. Let's go over and talk to her and make things a little more lively."

Everyone agreed that it made sense.

So the group of people marched in a grand procession toward Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

at the same time.

At this moment, in Lin Daiyu's boudoir in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, two illusory figures were floating on the roof beams, talking.

On the bed below, Lin Daiyu sat there, motionless.

Another figure was sitting on the chair next to it.

"It's okay, just close your eyes and walk forward, you won't bump into the wall, give it a try."

At this moment, Luo Zijun's soul was teaching Lin Daiyu's soul how to pass through walls.

Both of them were glowing with light, but the light emanating from Luo Zijun completely enveloped him, making him invisible to the other party, and his entire soul looked very solid.

Lin Daiyu's spirit glowed dimly, but her delicate and slender body and true appearance could be clearly seen through the eyes of her spirit. Her entire spirit looked very thin, as if it were composed of a thin wisp of mist that would dissipate with a gust of wind.

"Yes, keep moving forward, don't be afraid."

Luo Zijun's spirit floated beside her, offering encouragement.

Lin Daiyu seemed a little scared, but she still closed her eyes and moved towards the wall in front of her.

"Shh!"

Her delicate soul passed through the wall with ease.

When she opened her eyes, she was pleasantly surprised to find herself in the living room.

"Young Master Luo, I... I really can walk through walls..."

Her face was beaming with joy, her eyes sparkling, like a playful little girl who had discovered a really fun toy.

"I'll go back..."

This time, she wasn't afraid anymore. She opened her eyes wide and slammed into the wall.

"Shh!"

They easily entered the room again.

“So fun…”

She came out of the room with a happy expression.

After repeating this several times, she was no longer afraid. She smiled and her face was full of innocent joy.

Luo Zijun followed beside her, watching her play while explaining to her how to cultivate next.

Lin Daiyu listened attentively, but couldn't stop playing. Sometimes she would deliberately wed half of her body inside the box and listen with her eyes wide open.

A while later, just as she returned to her room, she suddenly felt everything go black, her body went limp, and she lost control, falling downwards.

"what!"

She gasped in surprise, suddenly feeling a splitting headache.

Luo Zijun grabbed her delicate, boneless body and flew down with her, saying, "Quickly, get into the physical body."

Lin Daiyu covered her head in his arms and said, "I...I have no strength...my head hurts so much..."

Luo Zijun could only continue holding her, saying, "Then don't move, rest for a while. You just used up too much soul power, so your soul can't take it. You've just cultivated to the point of soul separation, so you can't stay out for too long, nor can you stray too far from your physical body..."

Lin Daiyu lay softly in his arms, clearly feeling his body, his heartbeat, and even the scent unique to men. She felt both shy and confused, and asked in a hushed voice, "Young Master Luo... the soul isn't something ethereal, how can... how can..."

"That applies to ordinary people, or to the physical body..."

Luo Zijun held her soft, delicate body and patiently explained, "Ordinary people can't see it or touch it, so they naturally think it's nothing. But for another soul, it's a physical entity that can be seen, touched, and even... cough cough, it's no different from a physical body, except for body temperature."

"Could it even be what?"

Lin Daiyu blinked her big eyes and asked.

Luo Zijun stared at her delicate and beautiful face and her watery eyes for a moment, and the memories of those days in the underground cave with the fairy came to mind again. He said, "You can even do some strange things."

Lin Daiyu was even more puzzled and curious: "Young Master Luo, what are these strange things?"

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "Daiyu, are you asleep? We've come to talk to you."

Then, other voices rang out with laughter. "Pin'er, come out and greet him quickly. Don't hide in the room missing Young Master Luo. He's probably at home with his sister-in-law right now."

"Hehe, maybe she went to keep Sister Liu company."

"Yun'er, don't talk nonsense!"

At this moment, Zijuan hurriedly went out and said, "Ladies, my young lady is a little tired and has already gone to bed."

Shi Xiangyun looked out the window and said, "How can they be asleep so early? There's still a light on in the room. Zijuan, let's go in and take a look."

Zijuan quickly stopped her, saying, "Miss has really gone to sleep."

Xueyan was also frightened and came over to stop them.

Seeing their panicked expressions, the crowd exchanged suspicious glances.

Jia Tanchun quickly asked, "Did Daiyu cough up blood again?"

Upon hearing this, everyone else's expression changed.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look!"

Ignoring the attempts to stop them, the group hurriedly entered the courtyard.

Zijuan and the other two were anxious and flustered, but they couldn't stop them, nor did they dare to actually try. They could only call out urgently into the house, "Miss, the second young lady and the others are here!"

At this moment, Lin Daiyu finally regained some strength in the room. She hurriedly got up from Luo Zijun's arms, her soul returning to her body. However, she was still shocked and frightened, and her soul was very weak. As soon as her soul returned to her body, her body swayed and she fell off the bed, feeling completely powerless.

Luo Zijun immediately snapped out of her daze and went over to pick her up.

Just then, the door creaked open from the outside, and Jia Tanchun was the first to enter, her face full of worry. "Daiyu, your health..."

Suddenly, she froze on the spot, her words abruptly cut off.

"Daiyu, are you coughing up blood again?"

At this moment, the other girls also hurriedly followed in, and after seeing the scene in the room, they suddenly froze on the spot.

There was another man in the room, holding Lin Daiyu's frail body as he stood by the bed.

Lin Daiyu lay limply in his arms, her eyes wide and glazed, motionless, her beautiful face flushed.

"Everyone, please don't misunderstand..."

Seeing this, Luo Zijun knew that the girls must have misunderstood something, and quickly tried to explain.

But before he could speak, Jia Tanchun, who had entered first, realized what was happening and quickly said, blushing, "I...I'm sorry, we thought...we thought Daiyu was sick again...Young Master Luo, Daiyu, you...you're busy, we won't bother you any longer..."

After saying that, he hurriedly gave the others a wink and quickly left the room.

The others also realized what was happening and quickly left.

After Shi Xiangyun retreated to the doorway, she glanced at the two of them again with a grin and said, "Daiyu, rest well. We didn't see anything, so don't be embarrassed. Young Master Luo, take good care of Daiyu and don't be too rough."

After saying that, he personally closed the door for the two of them.

Luo Zijun quickly said, "Wait, it's not what you see. Let me explain!"

"Squeak..."

The door is closed.

The young ladies immediately left the courtyard with their maids and servants.

As soon as I stepped outside, I heard a few bursts of laughter.

"Tsk tsk, Daiyu is quite capable. Who would have thought she could sneak into Young Master Luo's boudoir so secretly..."

"No wonder he came back so early. He was probably eager to see Young Master Luo and even sent Xueyan to let us know, probably because he was afraid we would disturb him..."

"Yun'er, it's all your fault, you insisted on coming..."

The sound gradually faded into the distance.

Inside the room, Luo Zijun had already placed Lin Daiyu, whom he was holding, on the bed. The two stared at each other, bewildered.

Lin Daiyu lay there softly, her face flushed, too ashamed to know what to do.

At this moment, Zijuan and the other two apologized from outside the door, their voices trembling with tears: "Young Master Luo, Miss, it's all our fault..."

Luo Zijun could only comfort her, "It's alright, it's not your fault. Miss Lin and I are completely innocent and have a clear conscience. We can explain it to her tomorrow."

Zijuan and the other two exchanged glances outside the door, their expressions strange.

In the dead of night, a man and a woman alone in a room, is that considered innocent and without any guilt?
Zijuan immediately became angry: "Young Master Luo, you...you don't want to take responsibility for my young lady anymore?"

Xueyan also said, "You've already entered my young lady's boudoir, and you've even been hugging and cuddling with her. The second young lady and the others saw it all, and you still want to deny it?"

The youngest, Chunxian, said, "Young Master Luo, you can't be a scumbag, or we won't forgive you."

Luo Zijun: "..."

Lin Daiyu, lying on the bed, looked at him with a blush on her face. Her watery eyes shimmered with shyness and other emotions.

Luo Zijun asked with concern, "Are you feeling better?"

Lin Daiyu lay there motionless, simply watching him quietly. After a moment, her face flushed, she softly asked, "You... will you take responsibility for me?"
