How was it that he conquered Bai Yunxian so easily despite being on a hard route?
Something is fishy, and Bai Yuxian’s acting like this is also suspicious.
"My lord, you—" Bai Yunxian stared at her with drowsy, yet a gaze that made Yun Shu feel shiver down her spine.
He crawled in knees as he went closer to her face and looked up at her, Yun Shu’s heartbeat began to get faster with every second for some reason as she felt like losing her breath.
’W-what’s with this intense stare?’ Yun Shu was startled by his eyes as she gulped down her saliva and tried to look away, but couldn’t turn her eyes away for some reason.
As if a strong attraction holding her down with all strength, she was tied down by Bai Yunxian’s intense stare that was full of desire.
A desire to devour her entirely... one that shook her body and soul...
"Young lord, do you... like me?"
???
’What?’
’How did he know?’
Yun Shu blinked a few times as she felt confused, she was thinking hard to figure out, but Bai Yunxian felt aa if Yun Shu was ignoring him.
’Even if he knew, it doesn’t matter. Because he and I can never be together.’
’It’s best if we both went our own way after I freed him from this hell bent life.’ Yun Shu’s face turned cold at the thought as she felt irritated for some reason.
The situation was the same for Bai Yunxian as well, because he couldn’t feel more annoyed than that, just thinking of Yun Shu avoiding him or ignoring him was feeling unbearable, which made his eyes all teary.
Yun Shu pursed her lips and tried to say something, but nothing came out of her mouth as her throat went dry.
"Lord Yun...! Please, please answer me..." Bai Yunxian’s shoulders shrunk as he took the hem of Yun Shu’s clothes, kissing on it as he looked straight into her eyes with a teary, painful gaze.
At that moment, Yun Shu felt like this man was so small, so broken. Her heart throbbed with an unknown pain, but she felt as if she felt the same pain like this once before, it was like she couldn’t bear it, because her hands, her entire body were trembling and shaking in an unknown excitement.
"I need to know this, no, I need to be sure that you... you like me... please... I don’t want to hear a rejection, Young Lord, I can’t bear it..." Bai Yunxian crumpled her dress in his hands as he leaned his face down in her knees, hiding his tears that he couldn’t stop from flowing down.
’Calm down, Yun Shu. You aren’t a dog in heat, behave yourself! You mustn’t lust after a man who is not in her right mind, no, I shouldn’t be swayed by him no matter what...’ Yun Shu tried to calm her head by repeatedly reminding herself those words like a mantra.
It’s obvious that Bai Yunxian got drugged because of her careless attitude, she herself didn’t know why she suddenly became so clumsy and did something foolish like this.
She completely forgot that the teacup, teapot and water in this room were all laced with drugs. The scented chandelier by the bedside was also a type of formless aphrodisiac that couldn’t be detected, but she did know of it’s location beforehand because she played the game before.
Since the atmosphere inside this room was that of an 18+ scene, Chen Yi got restricted from entering this location, but why did she do such stupid things?
Yun Shu didn’t understand what her heart wanted at this moment.
"I should go open the windows and ventilate this room properly, it feels a little hot, doesn’t it?" Yun Shu wanted to distract Bai Yunxian and avoid the situation coming up next, she almost got away from Bai Yunxian.
"Don’t go, Lord Yun. Please, answer me." Bai Yunxian’s face hardened, so did his fist which he clenched tightly, not letting go of her cloth.
"What if I did? And what if I didn’t? It doesn’t matter anywa—" Yun Shu gulped down her saliva as she tried her best to resist his charisma by turning her head away from him.
Out of sight, out of mind. Isn’t it what it should be like?
Then why?
The moment Yun Shu said those words, she was careless. And now, her lips were sealed into his.
Bai Yunxian felt like he would go crazy the moment he heard those heartless words coming from the mouth of the one he loved, admired and cherished all this time. As if he already decided, he let go of her clothes and grabbed her wrist, pulled Yun Shu’s body into his and slammed his lips against hers.
At first, Yun Shu wanted to push him away with all her might and draw a clear line. But then her heart trembled, as if she were to push him away, she would lose something important to her forever.
Bai Yunxian was clumsily holding onto Yun Shu, but his body was trembling. Yun Shu also felt the warm and watery thing that got smashed on her face, his tears flowed down to their lips which made Yun Shu groan from the salty taste.
’Is he still crying?’
’Seriously, like why was he being such a crybaby? Does he also know that I’m weak against his tears? Is that why he made such a move on me?’
Yun Shu couldn’t push Bai Yunxian away, so she grabbed his arms with both hands and pulled him away from her.
"Stop it. Crying like this won’t do anything." Yun Shu scolded the guy with a straight face, but Bai Yunxian was still flapping his hands in the air trying to get a hold of her. The words were feeling like a knife that stabbed his heart, he couldn’t bear it as tears flowed down to his cheeks like a stream.
