That is, she hadn't noticed Wei Tingyu's presence at all until he knocked out the Wu Kingdom official, and only then did she realize how close they were!
To say that she didn't notice the sneak attack by the Wu Kingdom official at first was because she was distracted while walking.
However, she became very vigilant after that, especially when she was preparing to eliminate the Wu Kingdom official. She made a point of listening to the surrounding noise and only made the decision after confirming that there were no other people around.
In other words, Wei Tingyu walked from a distance and stood behind this Wuguo official, only a step or two away from her, and she didn't hear a single footstep during the process!
This is almost impossible!
The only explanation is that the Marquis of Jining in front of me is a hidden master, and at least his lightness skill is superior to mine!
At this moment, Ren Ruyi also recalled the feeling she had after exchanging glances with Wei Tingyu in the banquet hall.
Sure enough! My intuition was right! This marquis is definitely not as simple as he appears to be—just a playboy and lecher!
The other party might also be after me! What is their purpose?
Even if I wanted to kill him right now, I might not be able to succeed!
After thinking about these things, Ren Ruyi, to be on the safe side, withdrew the hand knife she had prepared back into her sleeve.
Fortunately, Wei Tingyu's head was close to her neck, seemingly greedily inhaling her fragrance, so she didn't notice the change in her facial expression.
Ren Ruyi was unaware that although Wei Tingyu didn't need to see, he had completely grasped her actions just now.
The other party originally intended to kill, but suddenly abandoned the idea.
As expected of a seasoned assassin, she always makes the right choice at crucial moments! It has to be said that Ren Ruyi's sixth sense and assassin's instinct saved her once again!
"My lord..." Seeing that she couldn't use force, Ren Ruyi could only resort to her ultimate weapon as a woman, and immediately began to whine to Wei Tingyu, "This humble woman has other matters to attend to... If I am delayed, I fear I will be punished... Please have mercy on me, my lord..."
Her meaning was simple: let me go! I don't have time to play games with you here!
Wei Tingyu knew, of course, that Ren Ruyi was going to see that Prince Han.
According to the original plot, after the two meet, the Crown Prince Han will also come up to smell Ren Ruyi's body fragrance.
In order to complete the task, Ren Ruyi could only bite her lip and endure it!
However, for Wei Tingyu at this moment, this is absolutely unacceptable!
As the main female character who must be taken into the manor, Ren Ruyi's intoxicating scent can only be smelled by him alone!
Therefore, he certainly wouldn't let his chosen wife go out to meet other men!
Thinking of this, he didn't say anything, but instead put on a lustful look and reached out to pull Ren Ruyi into his arms.
At the same time, his face tilted slightly downwards, as if he wanted to kiss the other person's fair neck!
To be honest, aside from the acting part, Wei Tingyu really did have that impulse right now! After all, this beauty's skin was so white it was dazzling, what normal man wouldn't want to rush up and kiss her at this distance?
Moreover, Ren Ruyi's natural fragrance further fueled Wei Tingyu's impulse.
"No!" Ren Ruyi noticed Wei Tingyu's movement and quickly reached out to stop him from leaning against her chest!
Wei Tingyu was stopped by the other party, so he straightened up and looked at Ren Ruyi in front of him without saying a word, but his eyes showed impatience.
He perfectly embodied the image of a spoiled brat whose heart was only set on women!
Even a skilled actress like Ren Ruyi was fooled by him!
“This won’t do…” Ren Ruyi noticed the unfriendly look in Wei Tingyu’s eyes and immediately panicked. If this spoiled brat were to cause a scene regardless of the situation, her plan would be ruined.
She quickly added, "This servant knows that Your Excellency likes me!"
"But this place right now..."
"If Your Excellency is truly interested... perhaps you could come here again late at night..."
Good heavens! Is this just empty promises? I never expected that Ren Ruyi, a female assassin, would also know this trick!
I'll come here again tonight... but this is the Yang family's backyard! Ren Ruyi knows that he is an outsider, so it's definitely not convenient for him to come and go as he pleases!
Although Wei Tingyu could come and go as he pleased, he was certain in his heart that Ren Ruyi would not come to the appointment tonight!
I'm afraid that once she successfully infiltrates Prince Han's residence and completes her mission, she will simply disappear. Where will I find her then?
"Lord Marquis..." Ren Ruyi saw that Wei Tingyu did not speak, but his eyes were full of disbelief, and she immediately felt helpless.
Sure enough, this man is not easily fooled! Her eyes darted around, and she spoke again in a soft, coquettish voice, "I really don't want to live in this shabby house in the brothel anymore, having to dance every day to please others..."
"When this mission is over... could you take me back to your residence?"
Wei Tingyu was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.
He remembered that sentence; it was originally intended by Ren Ruyi to fool Han Shizi, wasn't it?
So, they're using it on themselves first?
But she's really a clever woman. Any man with lustful desires could resist her words.
Her point was that Wei Tingyu shouldn't be in a hurry right now, because they could be together for a long time in the future, which was something that couldn't be compared to this one moment of passion!
"Okay!" Wei Tingyu pretended to be hooked, and while saying this, he took Ren Ruyi's small hand and began to gently knead and play with her soft joints.
It has to be said that the phrase "skin as white as ice and bones as jade" is the perfect description of Ren Ruyi in front of us!
Even this little hand doesn't look like an assassin's; it's soft and smooth, and Wei Tingyu couldn't bear to let go of it.
At this moment, Ren Ruyi had no choice but to let the other party place her soft hands in his large hands and play with and knead them back and forth. Even if she was angry, she could only endure it.
Seeing that Ren Ruyi could actually hold back, Wei Tingyu gently lifted her hand and brought it to his mouth and nose to take a deep sniff, and even gently kissed the smooth back of her hand!
Ren Ruyi never imagined that she would have to make such a big sacrifice to carry out a mission, after all, she had never had such intimate contact with any man before.
The worst part is that Wei Tingyu wasn't even her target for this mission; he was a complete surprise.
The more I think about it, the more I realize I've lost out big time!
But since things had come to this point, she could only force an awkward smile and greet Wei Tingyu's lecherous expression with a smile.
"After the banquet ends... I'll talk to Lord Sun about taking you as a concubine!" Wei Tingyu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ren Ruyi's expression—clearly furious but forced to hold back.
Being teased and manipulated by a man like this, yet helpless against it—is this the strongest female assassin in Anguo? Who would believe it if word got out?
However, Ren Ruyi's heart tightened again after hearing Wei Tingyu's words.
Sun Shiyi was the highest-ranking envoy in the Wu Kingdom delegation, and in principle, he should have been in charge of all matters! As for servants like the dancer he was disguised as, whether to give them away or sell them was entirely up to Sun Shiyi.
If Wei Tingyu were to ask Sun Shiyi for help, the latter would very likely do him a favor in order to curry favor with the nobles in the capital.
The delegation from Wuguo witnessed firsthand the exceptional treatment the Marquis of Jining received from the Yang family. It was impossible for them not to want to befriend such a powerful person!
She never expected Wei Tingyu to be so impatient, not even waiting for the mission to end, but wanting to take her into his household immediately after the banquet.
But what use would I be to your Jining Marquis's residence? You're not my target! And there's nothing I need in your residence!
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!" Ren Ruyi knew that her plan for today had definitely failed. For now, she could only try to stay until the banquet ended, then sneak away from the delegation and hide, hoping to find another opportunity to get close to Prince Han in the future!
Wei Tingyu only came out from behind the artificial hill after he sensed that Han Shizi had been waiting alone in the pavilion at the end of the corridor for a long time without anyone coming. After he finally turned around and left, Wei Tingyu took Ren Ruyi's hand and walked out.
Linglong, who was in the distance, naturally saw all of this, but she could only worry helplessly.
After seeing Han Shizi leave, she returned to the banquet hall. After all, their mission was not over yet, and they had to keep their identity as dancers a secret.
"My lord..." Ren Ruyi hadn't expected Wei Tingyu to be so brazenly holding her hand as they walked through the corridors of the Yang family's back residence. She tried to pull her hand away, but found it impossible to break free without using martial arts. So, to avoid being exposed, she could only let him hold her hand!

Chapter 158 The Plan to Seduc Ren Ruyi! A Show-Off Has Arrived!
At this moment, Ren Ruyi was standing a body length behind Wei Tingyu, staring at his back, her eyes revealing an unspeakable meaning.
Putting everything else aside, this man is currently a real problem for her!
I can't kill him! I can't fight him! The most crucial thing is that I don't know anything about this person's background, so I might not be a match for him if I try to kill or fight him!
She could only pretend to be an innocent little rabbit, pitifully begging him for sympathy.
However, this guy often acts unexpectedly, sometimes taking advantage of me and sometimes forcibly holding my hand while we walk.
This left Ren Ruyi unsure of where to begin in order to resist or fight back!
"You damned Marquis of Jining! You ruined my plans and took advantage of me!" Thinking of this, she could only grit her teeth in despair, muttering to herself, "Once I've completed my mission, I'll sneak into your manor, drug you while you're sleeping, and then castrate you!"
"Even if you have a beautiful wife and concubines by your side, you won't be able to enjoy them then!"
"You shameless scoundrel, you're driving me crazy!"
Just as Ren Ruyi was ruthlessly plotting how to torment Wei Tingyu in the future, she saw a young master looking around under the pavilion in the distance. Upon seeing Wei Tingyu, his eyes lit up and he ran over eagerly.
Ren Ruyi frowned slightly. She had seen this person before; he was said to be the young master of the Yang family!
"Brother-in-law..." Yang Xian had just noticed that Wei Tingyu had gone out in the banquet hall and had rushed over to find him, afraid that he might have been neglected or slighted. Now that he saw him, he was naturally overjoyed.
He had barely uttered the words when he noticed that Wei Tingyu was accompanied by a dancer from the Wu Kingdom delegation, and immediately shut his mouth.
However, Ren Ruyi didn't react much to this form of address, because she wasn't from the capital and didn't understand the situation.
Just to be on the safe side, Yang Xian changed his words, saying, "My lord! Why did you come out? Was it because the food at the banquet didn't suit your taste..."
However, Yang Xian froze halfway through his sentence, because he could clearly see that Wei Tingyu and Ren Ruyi were holding hands.
"Oh..." He understood in an instant, then looked around to make sure no one else was there, before stepping forward to Wei Tingyu and saying, "My lord... would you like me to prepare a private room for you?"
Upon hearing this, not only Wei Tingyu was stunned, but Ren Ruyi's eyes also widened!
