"I hope you're satisfied with my service, Wanwan."
Hearing Yu Longting's lowered gentle voice, my heart almost stopped, overwhelmed by a mix of confusion and infatuation, "Did you... use your Charm Technique on me? Why can't I stop thinking about you?"
How is it fair? His looks were already the pinnacle of attractiveness.
And he's so skilled at seduction!
"No, Wanwan, I would never use the Charm Technique on you, to bewilder your mind and affect your judgment of emotions."
"Ok, I get it. You want my heart. Once I get my Love Soul back, I'll fill my entire heart with you."
"Wanwan, don't lie to me. I am not well-read and very naive."
Several hours passed and it turned dark.
In the light rain, a nearly full silver moon began to rise.
Feeling weak all over, I leaned back onto Yu Longting's arm, "I've really trapped myself…"
Why did I have to be so proactive! It's like asking for trouble!
"Wanwan, not used to it yet?" Yu Longting frowned slightly and leaned in to kiss me.
I panicked and pushed him away forcefully, "You... keep your distance, don't... don't come any closer!!"
He surely wouldn't want to...
"My wife, it's just because you're too cute. But Wanwan, I wouldn't do anything to hurt you. I'll restrain myself." Yu Longting saw through the shadow over my heart and kissed me, smoothly wrapping the cheongsam back around me while fastening the buttons with one hand. Suddenly, my stomach growled loudly, causing his fingers to pause in their movements.
Heat rushed to my face, "I'm a little hungry, I haven't eaten anything all day."
"Why didn't you tell your husband sooner?" Yu Longting stretched out his arm, scooped up my head, and buried it in his embrace, stroking my hair.
I really felt hungry and touched my shrunken stomach, "There's been too much chaos, I didn't think of it."
"Here." Yu Longting handed me a large Peach.
I gasped and took it with both hands, "You brought Peaches."
Thinking of the juicy peach flesh made my mouth water.
Just about to bite, I suddenly couldn't bring myself to do it.
"Why aren't you eating?" Yu Longting pinched my cheeks.
I instinctively clutched the Peach to my chest like a treasure, "This is a fruit from the peach tree planted by your father. Rongling said you kept them in memory of someone and never shared with others."
"Open the door, quickly open the door!! Snake demon, come out!!"
A sudden series of violent knocks echoed from outside, each hit so barbaric that it shook the door violently, "You killed my husband and pretended to be the Dragon God. I'm going to fight you."
"That damn snake demon, you're just capitalizing on your slight resemblance to Lord Dragon God to deceive the village chief. And now you want to frame the Yellow Fairies."
"Shameless, despicable! Kill this dog couple, and avenge Brother Chen, Uncle Wu, the High Priest…"
Several large stones shattered the glass and flew in.
Thankfully, there were curtains, otherwise, Yu Longting and I would have surely been hit.
Through the gap in the curtains, the flickering of torches could be seen outside, and the Barbarian Villagers had gathered, seeking an explanation from Yu Longting.
"Looks like those Weasel Spirits have turned on us." I hurriedly got up to find my shoes and struggled to put them on.
Turning around, I unexpectedly found Yu Longting exceptionally calm, leisurely slipping into a silk Deep Robe, his movements lazy yet elegant over his fair skin.
I squinted my eyes; being with a scheming snake like him, a moment's lapse in thought meant I wouldn't survive, "Did you know all along that the Yellow Skins would turn on you? No! You planned for them to do so, you intended to hand those two Yellow Skins over to the Barbarian Villagers right from the start."
Damn it, and he just had the nerve to claim how innocent he was! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel-fire.net
