Nan Zhiyun clung to Yu Jingchen's waist, her head resting against his chest, as if she wanted to hide herself because she was afraid.
Having no other choice, Yu Jingchen called out, "Someone come here!" Xinglai quickly came in from outside.
"Light the lamps!" Yu Jingchen's tone was already tinged with impatience.
Fortunately, he didn't dare delay and immediately lit the candles in the room. What he saw next almost made his jaw drop. The room slowly brightened, but Nan Zhiyun was still stunned. Her eyes were tightly closed, and she dared not let go.
"Step back," Yu Jingchen said again, and then left.
When only the two of them were left in the room, Yu Jingchen looked down at Nan Zhiyun, who was hugging his waist. She was still trembling slightly, perhaps because she hadn't fully woken up yet. She was kneeling there, her hands tightly wrapped around his waist, as if she was afraid he would throw her up.
This realization startled Yu Jingchen slightly, and a strange feeling rose in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it. He calmed himself down, remained silent and still, and Nan Zhiyun's breathing was a little rapid, but it gradually calmed down.
After an unknown amount of time, Nan Zhiyun finally pulled herself out of her own world. The lights in the room were turned back on, and the darkness in Nan Zhiyun's heart slowly dissipated.
"Shouldn't you let go now?" Yu Jingchen's cold voice rang out, as always, devoid of any warmth.
Nan Zhiyun then realized what was happening and immediately let go of his hand, as if she had touched something scalding hot. She was at a loss and somewhat panicked.
"Heh, scared now? Why didn't you let go earlier?" Yu Jingchen felt inexplicably annoyed as he watched Nan Zhiyun so impatiently release his hand.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Nan Zhiyun was genuinely afraid this time, after all, Yu Jingchen, whether in the previous life or this life, hated her getting close.
He felt disgusted not only by himself, but by anyone who got close to him. Therefore, whenever Yu Jingchen encountered someone who took the initiative to approach him, he would never be soft-hearted or let them off easily.
"Nan Zhiyun, you're getting bolder and bolder. Did I let you off the hook these last two times? Did that make you think I won't do anything to you and won't dare to punish you again?" Yu Jingchen was holding back his anger, and he felt uncomfortable if he couldn't vent it.
Nan Zhiyun dared not argue, and could only kneel there with her head down, listening to Yu Jingchen's lecture. But it was precisely her attitude that made Yu Jingchen's anger burn even brighter.
Yu Jingchen pushed Nan Zhiyun down. When Nan Zhiyun fell, she was hit, but she endured it without making a sound. Yu Jingchen caught her.
"Nan Zhiyun, you went to Cining Palace, has she changed her methods?" Yu Jingchen's face darkened several shades, it was clear that this time, he was truly angered by Nan Zhiyun's attitude.
Nan Zhiyun didn't dare to say anything, afraid that she might say something wrong and anger Yu Jingchen again. However, Yu Jingchen was in a bad mood, so even if Nan Zhiyun didn't argue or speak, he would still be annoyed.
Yu Jingchen grew angrier the more he thought about it, so he reached out and ripped Nan Zhiyun's clothes off. Nan Zhiyun felt a chill and her face was filled with terror.
"Nan Zhiyun, you have repeatedly tested my patience. Haven't you gone too far?" Yu Jingchen felt that he had tolerated it many times, but this woman in front of him always found a way to anger him.
"You really want to be punished? Fine, today I will grant your wish." With that, Yu Jingchen pressed Nan Zhiyun's hands to her sides. Where did Nan Zhiyun get the strength to resist?
But this only brought him deep torment and boundless fear. Looking at the little woman's terrified eyes, Yu Jingchen suddenly felt a strange excitement. That's right, she needed to be afraid, she needed to be tamed. He'd only forgiven her twice, and she seemed to have no bottom line.
Since that's the case, from now on, no matter what she does wrong, he will never let her off easily. He must make her understand her punishment, make her remember it completely, and never dare to do it again. He must make her tremble at the sight of him, otherwise she will continue to take advantage of him.
Thinking of all this, Yu Jingchen no longer hesitated and directly tore off all the remaining fabric on Nan Zhiyun's body, completely exposing her body.
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun began to panic.
However, Yu Jingchen, still furious, didn't care at all, especially after seeing Nan Zhiyun's resistance, which made him even angrier.
"If you don't want to go through what happened last time, you'd better not try to resist, otherwise those things are always ready for you." Yu Jingchen was clearly angry, his eyes filled with ruthlessness. Nan Zhiyun bit her lip, not daring to make a sound, but Yu Jingchen directly reached out and pinched her mouth: "Don't bite it in a moment, shout it out... You're not allowed to refuse, you have no right." Yu Jingchen couldn't stand seeing her like this.
Nan Zhiyun gasped for breath, the previous experience still vivid in her mind, especially the things Yu Jingchen had said. The first time was with the candlestick, and that time was heart-wrenching... Adding the previous life, that made two memories.
Besides, in his previous life, he didn't just use candlesticks... He used almost everything he could get his hands on, but he himself... rarely actually touched himself.
"Did you understand what I just said?" Yu Jingchen became somewhat frantic. Nan Zhiyun nodded with her eyes closed. She dared not resist, but such a reaction clearly did not truly satisfy Yu Jingchen.
"Open your eyes! Tell me, did you understand or not!" Yu Jingchen repeated once again.
"I understand... I understand," Nan Zhiyun's voice trembled.
"Good that you understand. I warn you, do not close your eyes. I want you to see how you will be punished. You must remember this punishment deeply. If you ever anger me again, I will use the thing you fear most." Yu Jingchen's hand gently stroked Nan Zhiyun's cheek, icy cold. Nan Zhiyun wanted to dodge, but dared not.
Because she was afraid of angering Yu Jingchen again, who was always unpredictable, she didn't actually know what she had done to cause him to act this way. But she knew she had to obey.
