Simultaneous Transmigration: Freedom Across the Heavens

Bai Li took out a sheet music from his pocket, handed it to her, and said, "Play the piece in this book."

Si Lili was stunned for a moment, then took the book with a puzzled look. There were still songs in the world that I didn't know! She opened the book and began to read it. Her expression changed from disdain to seriousness, and her eyes became brighter as she read.

Bai Li sat down on the spot, leaning against the velvet carpet, with his hands behind his head, waiting quietly. The only sound in the private room was the rustling of turning pages.

After about two incense sticks' worth of time, Si Lili closed the sheet music, closed her eyes to think for a while, then gently raised her hand and her slender fingers lightly plucked the strings.

The next second, the sound of a piano filled the private room.

At first, the zither music is gentle and elegant, like a fresh rain in an empty mountain; in the middle section, the clear tone suddenly changes, as if facing a thousand troops without being flustered; in the end, it gradually turns into gentleness, all sounds are silent, and the aftertaste is long.

Bai Li squinted, his fingers tapping lightly on his thigh in time with the music, secretly pleased with himself. This musical score was naturally the tune of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer." The ancients were right to say that one should give a reward after a beating.

After the piece was finished, Si Lili, still feeling unsatisfied, looked intently at Bai Li and said, "Young Master Bai, this score... seems incomplete."

"good."

Bai Li rested his head on his hand and said calmly, "The complete score is for a duet of qin and xiao; what you have is only the first half."

"What about the second half?" Si Lili leaned forward, her voice filled with longing.

She learned music, chess, calligraphy and painting from a young age, but unfortunately her family fell into decline and she became a spy planted in the Qing Kingdom by the Northern Qi. She could only express her feelings through music.

Although I haven't seen the whole piece, judging from this half of the score, it seems to suit me very well.

Bai Li bluntly stated: "Nature is in my hands."

"Would Young Master Bai be willing to part with it..." Si Lili's voice trailed off as she gradually came to her senses.

This person seems to be here to threaten me, Si Lili. You need to be more assertive. How can you let a piece of music cloud your judgment?

Bai Li, observing her changing expression, suppressed a laugh and said, "On such a fine day, Miss Si, would you be willing to have a few drinks with me?"

Si Lili hesitated for a moment, then a glint of light flashed in her eyes, and a smile returned to her face, making her look beautiful and charming: "Since Young Master Bai wants to drink, I will gladly accompany him."

After saying that, she moved to the cabinet, took out a pot of fine wine, and a hint of malice appeared on her lips. She quickly concealed it, turned back to the table, leaned against the velvet carpet, and sat in the seat of honor, her posture languid yet deliberately alluring.

As the wine was being poured, Bai Li's ears twitched slightly, and the subtle turning sound inside the wine pot was clearly audible.

"Here we go again?" Bai Li glanced at the bronze wine pot without showing any emotion, wondering if this was the legendary Two Hearts Pot!

"It would be a pity to have fine wine but no good food."

"Young Master Bai is right. It was I who was negligent." Si Lili immediately ordered the maid next door to bring some food and pastries.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Bai Li channeled his inner energy, subtly altering the direction of the copper kettle's rotation, causing the mechanism to turn back to its original position.

"Young Master Bai, I salute you."

After the maid finished serving the food and left the private room, Si Lili immediately picked up her wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Bai Li chuckled inwardly. No matter what your intentions are, you'll reap what you sow in a moment. He raised his wine glass and said, "Thank you for the fine wine, Miss Si."

"Young Master Bai, let me fill your glass." Seeing that he had finished his drink, Si Lili quickly refilled his glass, raised it again, and said nothing more, "Come on, let me toast you again."

Seeing her determined to get herself completely drunk, Bai Li found it amusing.

The two of them took turns drinking, and soon finished a pot of wine.

Bai Li became more and more energetic as she drank, while Si Lili felt increasingly hot and restless, her eyes were blurry, and only a sliver of clarity remained in her mind. Her heart skipped a beat. Oh no, could it be that the mechanism of these two heart pots was broken?

Si Lili swayed as she propped herself up, her steps faltering and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Bai Li caught her in time.

"You...you go away."

She tried to push Bai Li away, but her hands were too weak, and she ended up falling into Bai Li's arms. She had drunk a whole pot of medicinal wine.

"Mmm..." Si Lili couldn't help herself and let out a soft moan, unable to resist rubbing her nose against Bai Li's chest.

Si Lili pressed close, her breathing gradually becoming heavier, her breath as sweet as orchids, her alluring fragrance filling the air, and her hands unconsciously wandering around.

"What...?"

*Snap!* Bai Li snapped his fingers, and the two maids next door slumped back in their chairs and fell into a deep sleep.

Then he swept Si Lili up in his arms and carried her to the soft couch. Si Lili's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were full of charm.

A flicker of fire seemed to dance in Bai Li's eyes.

Inside the private room, light curtains billowed, red candles burned, their flames crackling, and the night breeze seemed to grow gentler.

As dawn broke and the sky began to lighten, Si Lili lay panting in Bai Li's arms, her skin flushed pink.

Bai Li gently brushed the strands of hair that were stuck to her cheeks, his fingers lightly stroking them, and his true energy dispelled the fine sweat on her body.

"Wait, let me rest for a while." Si Lili placed her hand on his chest, her voice soft and sweet, as if begging for mercy.

Bai Li smiled and said, "If I don't subdue you today, my breakthrough as a Grandmaster will have been in vain."

"Why rest? As the ancients said, the plan for the day is made in the morning."

Outside the private room, Xiaohe covered her ears with both hands. No way, not again!

She woke up two hours ago and found everyone on the pleasure boat unconscious. The boat had drifted to a secluded spot on the Crystal River. She broke out in a cold sweat, thinking she had encountered a ghost.

He immediately rushed to Si Lili's boudoir, but found it empty. Finally, he thought of the private room.

But as soon as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, first looking suspicious, then her ears immediately turned bright red.

Being in a brothel, how could she not know what the sounds coming from the room meant?

Xiaohe was initially shocked. Miss Lili had always only sold her art, not her body, and no outsiders had ever stayed overnight on the pleasure boat. How could this be...?

For the next two hours, Xiaohe felt a mix of emotions and unbearable discomfort.

Xiaohe's feelings also changed from initial curiosity, excitement, and shyness to embarrassment, pain, and finally numbness.

Two hours! Do you know how I got through those two hours? Are you two even human?

Xiaohe is now filled with regret for waking up so early; she really wants to find a pillar and knock herself unconscious.

Da da da da!

At that moment, a series of footsteps sounded from the deck.

Xiaohe's expression changed, and she quickly walked to the corridor, where she saw the captain of the guards leading a group of people, walking towards her menacingly.

She spread her arms, blocking the middle of the aisle: "Miss Lili has important business to attend to; you mustn't disturb her."

The captain of the guards had a cold expression and spoke with a hint of hostility, "Get out of the way. I suspect that Lady Si is in danger. I need to see Lady Si."

"You can't go over there." Xiao He's face was full of stubbornness. If these rough men were allowed to pass, how would Li Li stand on her own two feet in the future?

The captain of the guards didn't want to waste time arguing with her, so he waved for someone to step forward and pull Xiaohe away. The two guards had barely taken half a step when, with a roll of their eyes, the group of rough men all collapsed to the ground and fell asleep again.

Xiaohe swallowed hard as she looked at the guards lying on the ground all over the corridor. She felt a chill run down her spine. She glanced furtively at the private room. She wasn't stupid; there was no way it was such a coincidence. That young master was definitely no ordinary person.
