"hateful!"
Charizard gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, making a clattering sound. "I almost believed your analysis just now! You were actually trying to get me into bed!
"Don't dream, Lovi Valentine! I, Charlize Theron, am not a maid for you to play with!"
Despite being extremely angry and even calling him by his name, Chariz never drew her sword against her lord - if any other man had dared to have such thoughts, he would have died a hundred times over.
Maid Susan, who was tied to the bed, was anxious. "Master, if she goes to bed too, what about me? What about me?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry."
Luo Wei pressed his palms together, signaling the two women on and off the bed not to get excited.
"Listen to me first, I did this to lure the assassin out.
“The assassin is very cunning and will not be easily lured out.
“Only if everyone in the manor believes that I’m doing something ridiculous with the maid, and only if everyone in the manor believes that I’ve driven away the female knight who protected me, will the assassin feel he has a chance.
"My plan is this: Charlize, you come to the bed and pretend to be me doing something ridiculous to the maid, and I will put on your knight's cloak and pretend to be you leaving in anger.
"That way, the assassin will sneak in under the cover of darkness to carry out his unfinished assassination mission. When that happens, it'll all be up to you, Charlize."
Chariz was stunned.
This plan is very feasible, and Young Master Luo Wei explained it very clearly.
Xia Liz began to feel that the cowardly and indecisive young master in the past was probably pretending, and the current young master who was meticulous and good at planning was the real young master.
This means that the young master had planned it all from the beginning. All his absurd behaviors were actually intended to remove the assassin's psychological defenses and thus better lure the assassin out.
Xia Liz pursed her lips uneasily, "Hmm... why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier that it was to lure the assassin out, I would have cooperated with you a long time ago."
"It's not too late to cooperate now."
Luo Wei patted the gap in the makeshift wooden bed and smiled harmlessly: "Come on, get on the bed."
Xia Lizi's face suddenly turned cold, "No, get down first, this bed can't withstand the three of us."
Luo Wei sighed helplessly, "Alright then."
Luo Wei weakly supported his body and slowly climbed down from the bed.
Fortunately, he had estimated that his physical condition was still good enough to move a few times, otherwise, Luo Wei was really afraid that he would not be able to get out of bed.
Xia Liz hesitated for a moment, but finally convinced herself and climbed onto the bed with a frown, "Okay, you can go now."
Luo Wei smiled and said, "How can it be that simple? If we don't put on a complete show, how could the assassin take the bait so easily?"
Xia Liz couldn't help but ask, "How do I do the whole thing? I can't really sleep with Susan, can I?"
Susan, who was tied up, also shook her head quickly.
"It's actually very simple," Luo Wei explained seriously, "Charis, you need to rock the bed hard, and Susan, you need to scream loudly."
Chariz looked confused, "How do you shake it?"
Maid Susan's eyes widened. "I won't scream."
Luo Wei rubbed his aching forehead, sighed, and personally demonstrated to Xia Liz how to rock the bed.
“…Just follow this set of movements and rhythm to shake.
"As for how to scream, Susan, just do what you screamed when I touched you and tested you just now, and follow the rhythm of Charlize's rocking bed. Come, let's go through it together."
Charizard tried with a look of resistance on her face, but the creaking of the bed was not obvious and there was no force.
Luo Wei immediately gave instructions, "You need to use your waist to generate power, not move your shoulders back and forth... Right, right, right, you did it right this time. You're an Awakened Knight after all, you understand it instantly."
Although she received Luo Wei's praise, Xia Lizi's face was full of depression. "Why does it have to be like this? Can't I just stand by the bed and rock it by hand?"
Luo Wei said sternly, "Of course not. If you stand by the bed and shake it, the assassin will realize it's a trap as soon as he pokes open the curtains. He'll turn and run without hesitation, not giving you a chance to get close and capture him. This is what they call details that determine success or failure."
Charizard sighed, "You're right. Well, let's get started quickly. Let's catch that damn assassin as soon as possible!"
Luo Wei smiled and said, "Don't worry, we still need to have a big fight first, so that it will be realistic enough."
"No, I can't. Although I really want to scold you and even draw my sword to kill you, I am a knight who has sworn allegiance. My chivalrous education does not allow me to scold my lord—"
Before Xia Lizi finished speaking, Luo Wei reached out and touched Xia Lizi's frosty face.
You know what, even though I just touched it for a moment, the delicate feeling is even better than the one I felt for the past five minutes.
Xia Liz was stunned for a moment in disbelief, then immediately roared angrily:
"Ahh! Lovie Valentine!
"You shameless lord! Pervert! Dirty bastard!
"Has your noble virtue been eaten by dogs? How come you haven't been poisoned to death?
"How dare you still have the energy to do such a thing! How could I be a knight to a vile person like you?
"I wish I could chop your dirty hands into pieces and feed them to the dogs. Then chop the dogs into pieces and throw them into the Broken Star River outside the manor to feed the fish. Then I fish the fish out and feed them to the pigs! Then I feed the pigs..."
"Alright, alright, that's almost it."
Luo Wei waved his hands repeatedly, "Now, take off your knight's cloak and give it to me, and then shout loudly: Go to hell!"
Even after having her face touched, Charizard was still furious. She angrily took off her cloak and threw it at Luo Wei, "Go to hell! Scum!"
After cursing, Xia Lizi was panting heavily, and there was a hint of satisfaction on her frosty face that she had never felt before.
Luo Wei gave Xia Liz a thumbs up and said, "Good acting! The emotions are on point! Now, remember the technique I taught you and start shaking."
Chariz was filled with anxiety and resistance. "Damn it! I'm a knight. I should be fighting with real weapons and shedding blood. I shouldn't be doing this! This isn't what a knight should do!"
"You are right, but this is what your lord wants you to do."
Luo Wei put on Xia Lizi's knight's cloak, which still had her body temperature, and lifted the hood, hiding her entire face inside. "Remember, I want her alive."
After saying that, Luo Wei lowered his head and forcefully threw open the tent curtain, then rushed into the vast night pretending to be angry.
Luo Wei ran into the knight's tent behind the lord's tent in one breath, then collapsed directly on Xia Lizi's mat, gasping for breath.
Before long, the creaking rhythm of a wooden bed and cries of "Oh no, master" could be heard in the quiet night of the manor.
The nest has been set, the bait has been hung, and we are just waiting for the lurking assassin to take a bite.
