Chapter 52 Chi Jingxi’s Bedroom (2)
Chi Jingxi and Cheng Xin were sitting in Li Boyuan's room, one copying the article and the other reading; the room was silent.
Li Boyuan got up and lifted the cotton curtain. He glanced outside at the heavy precipitation and said, "The time is getting late, and it's turning dark outside. You two should go back."

Chi Jingxi put down his pen, stood up, and said with a smile, "Master's room is so warm. I don't even want to go out."
Cheng Xin added happily, "Then let’s just sleep on the floor here."
"That can't be done!" Li Boyuan said, "I dare not keep the two of you in this little broken house."
"What are you saying, Teacher? You have already allowed my Imperial Brother to stay overnight before. Why can't we?" Cheng Xin asked.
"His Royal Highness was kept here because I was still in the palace at that time. Can it be the same?" Li Boyuan issued an order to evict the guests. "Quickly. Hurry up and go back to your rooms before it gets too dark."
Cheng Xin smiled and shook his head. He and Chi Jingxi put on their cloaks and exited Li Boyuan's room obediently.
The snow was raging. Hence, as soon as Chi Jingxi went out, the guards came up to hold an umbrella for him. The path in front of Teacher Li’s room door was also swept by the servants, so that although the snow was up to their ankles, it did not affect their walking too much.

The two stood at the door and bid Li Boyuan goodbye. As they were walking out, a person suddenly jumped out and blocked their way. They shouted, "Little Marquis! Please stay!"
The man was shivering from the cold, and his cheeks were extremely red. As he moved, a thick layer of snow fell from his umbrella, and they could also see that his wet fur coat was covered with ice crystals. It was obvious that he had been standing in the snow for a while.
He ran up to Chi Jingxi in large strides, almost slipping on the way. He untied the cotton cap covering his face and exhaled heavily, small, white clouds forming in front of him every time he breathed out. "I’ve waited for the two of you."
Chi Jingxi took a closer look at the man. Wasn't this the person he beat up a few days ago? The guy by the name of Wu Yutian...
He frowned. "Why are you blocking the way? Get lost."
"Little Marquis, I have something to tell you." He said while trembling, "Do you know Wen Yantong, that cripple from Sixth Ding Hall?"
Chi Jingxi said, "I'm not interested in knowing about him."
After replying, he started to leave, but Wu Yutian persevered and chased after him. "Wait, wait! It's not his business. It's your business! That Wen Yantong took up your bedroom, Little Marquis..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, both Chi Jingxi and Cheng Xin immediately stopped. Cheng Xin then laughed in surprise, "What did you say? Wen Yantong occupied Jingxi's bedroom?"
"Yes yes yes!" Wu Yutian nodded and said, "That cripple originally shared a dormitory with a student surnamed Zhang. However, he moved to a single dorm room after he injured his leg. I went to take a look before, and I found out that he actually lived in the Little Marquis' bedroom."
Cheng Xin laughed out loud and said to Chi Jingxi, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "Let's go. See if it's really the truth."
Wu Yutian was overjoyed and hurriedly offered his services. "I'll lead the way for the two of you."
"That's not necessary." Cheng Xin said nonchalantly, "Looking at how cold the weather is, you should go back quickly."
Wu Yutian knew that Cheng Xin didn't want him to follow, so he had no choice but to give up. Since he had already exposed her, he’ll know the results tomorrow morning.
It's just a pity that he can't see Wen Yantong crying bitterly with his own eyes. Wu Yutian sighed and left with regret.
Thus, with a group of guards following behind and Cheng Xin walking beside him, Chi Jingxi also left and marched towards Wen Yantong’s bedroom.
Wen Yantong, who was completely unaware of the impending doom that was about to befall her, was soaking comfortably in the hot water.
The door and windows of the bathroom were covered with extremely thick cotton curtains, and the whole bathroom was hazy from the heat; it was very warm. Wen Yantong wrapped her long hair in a cloth. She soaked in the water and pinched her right leg, feeling the blood all over her body flowing once again.
Sure enough, it was better to listen to the advice of the experienced. She felt much more comfortable after soaking in hot water.
The bath was heated from the outside. Wen Yantong didn't want the maid to run inside to keep it warm, so she got up after soaking for a while. She then shouted twice, but no one answered. Thinking the cotton curtain had weakened the sound, she stood up from the bath by herself.
As soon as she got out of the warm water, all the cold air came to her body, so she didn't dare dilly dally. She hurriedly pulled a cloth towel to dry her body and then wrapped herself in thick cotton clothes.
After putting on her shoes, she tore off the cloth wrapped around her head and let the hair down. Wen Yantong simply wiped the damp hair on the back of her neck, wrapped herself in a quilt, and left the bathroom.
When she arrived in her room, she discovered that the two maids, who were supposed to be standing in front of the door, were gone.
"Where did they go?" She muttered, confused.
Curious about where they went, she decided to investigate and pushed open the door to enter the main hall. After she pulled back the thick cotton curtain, Wen Yantong was so frightened that she almost flipped a couple somersaults back to the bathroom. She subconsciously blurted out, "F*ck!"
Several people were standing in the originally empty room. The guards and entourage lined up on both sides, all bowing their heads. Her two maids, who were supposed to be guarding the bathroom door, were now kneeling in the center of the room, trembling.
In front of the two maids stood a man with his back towards her. The man was dressed in an apricot-yellow cloak with a snow-white collar and gold hemming. As soon as Wen Yantong saw the ruyi pattern embroidered on it, her legs softened, and she almost knelt down with the maids.
Why did Chi Jingxi appear here? With so many people too?!
Everyone heard Wen Yantong's voice, but no one dared to move. Chi Jingxi turned around slowly and was stunned to see Wen Yantong wrapped in a ball, completely forgetting what he was about to say.
Wen Yantong said blankly, "It's already this late. For what matter is Little Marquis visiting here?"
Chi Jingxi's good-looking brows sank, and he replied coldly, "I should be asking you this question. Quite an appetite for someone your size."
Wen Yantong sniffed. "What do you mean... Can you be more direct?"
"Who allowed you to be here?" Chi Jingxi asked.
"I live here!" she replied.
