In her previous life, Wen Xingluo poured her heart and soul into planning a future for her father and brothers, finally ushering in the day of her family's prominence.
However, her older ...
Chapter 240: Commander, you can do whatever you want to me
Before Wen Xingluo could do anything, Xie Guanlan took out a brocade box from his sleeve.
"This is a gift from Prince Wuwei to you." He handed the brocade box to Wen Xingluo.
Wen Xingluo was not annoyed even though his little action was interrupted.
She opened the brocade box and found a pair of jeweled bracelets inside.
The top-quality gemstones carefully selected from the Western Regions come in various colors such as pink, blue, yellow and green. Each one is carved into a round star shape and connected with gold filigree. Both the gemstones and the craftsmanship of the craftsmen are priceless.
Wen Xingluo was curious, "He doesn't even know me, why would he give me such an expensive gift?"
Xie Guanlan picked up the jewel bracelet and slowly put it on her wrist. "Because he knows you are my woman. To please you is to please me."
The girl's wrists were as white as cream, and even the protruding wrist bones looked like they were carved from white jade.
The gems and shackles intertwined on the wrists with a strange beauty, like a fragile butterfly bound.
Wen Xingluo admired it for a moment, and suddenly had the idea of teasing Xie Guanlan.
She looked at Xie Guanlan with amusement, "How could I become your woman when the Commander and I haven't even slept together yet? What evidence do you have to prove that I am your woman?"
Xie Guanlan grabbed the shackles and pulled her into his arms.
He lowered his eyes to look at the girl in his arms, "These shackles are proof."
Wen Xingluo raised his head and met his eyes.
He probably didn't know that she had already secretly freed herself from these shackles.
She thought for a moment, a serious look on her face, and whispered in his ear, "Since I have become the Commander's prisoner, you can do whatever you want to me tonight."
The girl said the four words "do whatever you want" very slowly, one word at a time.
After she finished speaking, she tilted her head back and kissed his Adam's apple.
After the kiss, she pulled away slightly and tilted her head to gauge his reaction.
Xie Guanlan remained silent.
The girl in his arms was soft and warm. When she tilted her head back to kiss him, her nose brushed against his jaw. The kiss on his Adam's apple was thin and slow, with a bit of uncertainty, hesitation and temptation, and she seemed to nibble it lightly with her teeth.
Beneath his brocade robe, his entire body was tense, and in this cold night, his internal organs seemed to be on fire.
Wen Xingluo saw that he was silent for a long time and was about to ask him how he felt, but in the light of the candle, she clearly caught a glimpse of the red spreading on his earlobe.
She was surprised, "Are you shy?"
Xie Guanlan put his hand in front of her lips, and said with a hint of warning in his tone, "Wen Ningning."
Wen Xingluo stared into his eyes and licked his palm.
Hot and damp touch.
Xie Guanlan's head was buzzing and a tingling sensation quickly ran up his spine. At this moment, it seemed as if he could not hear any sound. The only sound in the world was the deafening heartbeat.
"Wen Ningning, how could you..."
He wanted to say something but was too shy to speak it out loud.
In all his years of life, this was the first time a woman had licked his palm.
Commander Xie, who conquered many countries at a young age, has always been dignified, reserved and self-possessed. He has faced hundreds of thousands of enemy troops without changing his expression, and has been surrounded by enemy troops and remained as steady as a rock. However, at this moment, his handsome face was showing an unusual red.
It’s simply…
"How shameful!"
After saying these four words, he hurriedly left the dormitory, his back looking like he was fleeing in panic.
Wen Xingluo slowly sat up straight on the Arhat couch.
She finally discovered that although Xie Guanlan seemed so arrogant and even had the audacity to lock her in the dormitory with handcuffs, in private he only dared to hold her hand or hug her at most.
Could it be that he is so naive that he thinks kissing will make her pregnant?
Wen Xingluo really couldn't understand what he was thinking.
Separated by a wall.
Xie Guanlan is bathing.
She was at such a young and energetic age, yet she was teased by Wen Xingluo in this way.
But he didn't want to touch her.
What is the difference between having a secret affair and not getting married in the open without three matchmakers and six betrothals?
Xie Guanlan wanted to be justified.
The water was changed three times before the scalding blood gradually cooled down in the cold water.
When I returned to the dormitory, Wen Xingluo was already asleep.
The little girl sleeps very well and straight.
Xie Guanlan tucked in the corners of the quilt for her and lowered the brocade curtain for her before returning to the Arhat couch.
The air was filled with a rich, sweet aroma.
It's the smell of falling stars.
The cold blood seemed to begin to boil again, and the beast in the chest became restless, constantly clamoring for hunger. Even silently reciting Buddhist scriptures could not appease it.
In the dark night, Xie Guanlan opened his eyes impatiently.
He took out the handkerchief hidden under his pillow.
The rough fingertips with thin calluses slowly twisted the silk handkerchief.
There was a delicate peach blossom embroidered on the handkerchief, and an exquisite "Ning" character was embroidered in the corner. It was the one that Wen Ningning had dropped in the porch last time.
He sniffed the handkerchief deeply and put his hand into the quilt.
His Adam's apple rolled, and the place where Wen Ningning kissed him felt hot.
Xie Guanlan's breathing became heavier in the quiet room.
He had never done anything like this in his life.
This is really against etiquette.
I don’t know if it’s because he didn’t know what to do or something else, but even after relieving himself a few times, the beast in his chest still roared with hunger, and the desire was magnified in the winter night, almost devouring him whole.
The next day.
When Wen Xingluo woke up, Xie Guanlan was no longer in the dormitory.
Because it was cold winter and the doors and windows were closed, the house was filled with an indescribable smell, like the smell of heather.
Wen Xingluo was a little disgusted by the smell.
She pushed open the crabapple-shaped window to ventilate. Snow was falling outside.
In the garden of Canglang Pavilion, a thin layer of snow accumulated on the pines, cypresses and bamboo leaves. A young man in red clothes and a jade belt was practicing martial arts in the snow with a narrow knife in his hand. He probably got up to practice before dawn, and there was almost no snow on the ground under his feet.
She watched from afar.
Snowflakes fell on his eyebrows and eyelashes one after another, and the cold edge of the blade reflected his narrow eyes. The young prince had broad shoulders, a straight back, and a face like a cold star. The scene of him dancing with a sword in the snow was so beautiful.
She watched for a long time before Xie Guanlan ended his morning exercise.
While having breakfast in the house, Wen Xingluo filled a bowl of fish porridge and asked seriously, "Did you smell a strange smell in the house when you woke up this morning?"
Xie Guanlan paused for a moment as he picked up the food, "...No."
"It smells terrible." Wen Xingluo took a sip of porridge. "I'm afraid something is rotten. I should ask someone to clean every corner thoroughly."
Xie Guanlan: “…Yeah.”
…
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve.
Xie Guanlan came out of the government office, passed by a rouge shop, and went in to buy a box.
Xie Yanchen happened to pass by outside.
Seeing the jade lion outside the rouge shop, he couldn't help but stop.
He hid across the street and saw with his own eyes Xie Guanlan coming out with the packaged rouge.
Ningning went to the capital.
Who is his elder brother going to give rouge to?
Thinking about how Xie Guanlan had been going out early and coming back early recently, Xie Yanchen suspected that his elder brother was hiding a mistress behind Ningning's back.
