Chapter 188 He Wants to Take It a Step Further
As soon as Qiao Mei led him into her bedroom and locked the door, he couldn't wait to transform into human form and hug Qiao Mei from behind.
Then, as she turned around in a daze, the golden dragon's eyes were fixed on her moist lips. Before she could utter a sound, it lowered its head and kissed her lips, not giving her a chance to make a sound.
In previous encounters, the two had gotten close, but had never gone all the way.
Firstly, Ao Cang wasn't very good at it; secondly, Qiao Mei had no such intention.
But the situation is different now; he will be formally introduced to her today.
Qiao Mei thought for a moment, and just as Ao Cang led her to the bedside, she took a deep breath, wanting to say something to him, when Xu Hui knocked on the bedroom door.
"Knock knock........"
"Xiao Mei, aren't you going to the Royal Ball tonight? Mom has something to tell you. Come out for a moment."
Qiao Mei's clothes had been half taken off by Ao Cang, and her lips were slightly red from his kisses.
Hearing this, and seeing his eyes reddening from holding back his tears, she didn't want to go out at this moment, but the situation simply didn't allow it.
She could only sigh and straighten her clothes, then kissed him back hard, her red eyes filled with apology: "Wait for me a little longer? I have something important to tell you later."
After saying that, she ran her hand through her waist-length curly hair, which had been frizzy from being rubbed by Ao Cang. Feeling that it was about time and that Xu Hui shouldn't be able to notice anything, she left under Ao Cang's aggrieved gaze.
Xu Hui was already sitting in the living room waiting for her. When she saw her come out, she was about to say something when her attention was drawn to Qiao Mei's unusually swollen and red lips.
"Xiao Mei, what happened to your lips? Why are they so red?"
Qiao Mei was so focused on cleaning her clothes and hair that she completely forgot about her mouth.
After a moment of stunned silence, he chuckled and said, "I ate something spicy earlier, and my lips are a little red from the spiciness."
But Xu Hui felt that being blushed with spiciness shouldn't be like this, and wanted to say something more, but Qiao Mei interrupted her, saying, "Mother, let's talk about business first. I'm a little sleepy. If we finish quickly, I'll go to my bedroom to rest sooner."
Having no other choice, Xu Hui suppressed her doubts and got down to business.
“Alright, let’s talk about the royal ball tonight. Although you’ve left the royal family with your mother, you still have half royal blood in you. Who knows, someone might try to make things difficult for you.”
This is not impossible. Qiao Mei had thought about it before. If this situation really happened, should she silently swallow her grievances or what?
Now that Xu Hui had brought it up, she simply asked Xu Hui directly what she should do.
Upon hearing this, Xu Hui took out a red agate bracelet that looked a bit old from her computer bracelet and handed it to Qiao Mei.
“If you go with this, and something happens, don’t react immediately. Your father is very likely to help you. Of course, there’s also the possibility that he won’t. If that happens, try not to respond first, but contact him and ask him to find a way to get you out of here as soon as possible.”
As she spoke, Xu Hui sent Qiao Mei another contact number, saying that this person was a steward she had been on good terms with in the palace and had done her a lot of favors.
"If neither of those works, just call your mom directly, and she'll come pick you up herself."
Qiao Mei's body is already eighteen years old, and her mental age in her previous life was already over twenty. She's not a three-year-old child who would need to call for her mother if something really happened.
After hearing what Xu Hui said, my first reaction was that if it really came to a last resort, she definitely wouldn't contact her and make her worry.
She believed that when the time came, she would definitely be able to come up with some solutions; there are always more solutions than problems, right?
But she didn't tell Xu Hui these words; instead, she pretended to agree so as not to worry her.
Xu Hui thought she had taken her words to heart, and the worry between her brows lessened a bit, so she let her go in and rest.
"I have to go out this afternoon, so I won't be able to take you then. Your Uncle Li got some free movie tickets and said he'd like to treat me to a movie."
"Uncle Li? Dean Li?" Qiao Mei put the agate bracelet into her computer bracelet, somewhat surprised.
"Yes, it's him. He's helped you and Ao Cang so much. Now that he's inviting me to a movie or something, as his friend, I can't just refuse outright, can I?"
Qiao Mei knew perfectly well what Li Chonghua's feelings were for Xu Hui.
Xu Hui is still young and has already divorced the Crown Prince, so she can't possibly remain single forever.
So after confirming that the person was Li Chonghua, he even gave Xu Hui some advice on what to wear when she went out to meet him.
"I hope you all have a great time. I'll come home early tonight so you won't worry."
After finishing her business, Qiao Mei almost forgot that Ao Cang was still waiting inside when she headed back to the bedroom.
She was still thinking about whether she, as Xu Hui's daughter, could be her bridesmaid if Xu Hui remarried when a burst of hot air suddenly sprayed from her ear, startling her.
"Thirty-three minutes..." Qiao Mei was still a little taken aback when the boy's somewhat aggrieved voice rang out.
"What, thirty-three minutes?"
Ao Cang turned her over, cupped her delicate, porcelain-white face in his large hands, and let her see his golden eyes, which were misty but still exceptionally bright.
"I endured it for thirty-three minutes, it was really uncomfortable..."
He gave Qiao Mei's lips a light peck, then looked down at his crotch, muttering something in a low, inaudible voice.
Qiao Mei didn't hear clearly, so she leaned closer and asked him to explain more clearly.
Then, she heard words that made her earlobes flush instantly and her body temperature soar.
She heard him say that he didn't want to just ease the surface situation anymore; he wanted to go further.
Qiao Mei herself had this intention, but she hadn't had a chance to tell him yet.
Seeing that the veins on his forehead were bulging from holding back his anger, she touched his hands, ears, and face and found that his temperature had indeed risen quite a bit compared to before. When she pulled him to the bedside, she lowered her voice a little because she was a little embarrassed.
"Yes, that's what I was planning to talk to you about before."
Ao Cang is a normal man after all. If she keeps treating his heat cycle so casually, his body will definitely develop problems in the long run, which is not what she wants to see.
She glanced at the time on her smartwatch: 1:35 PM.
It's still early before the royal ball starts at 7 p.m.
She figured she could get another nap after it was over, so she felt comfortable entrusting herself to Ao Cang.
Qiao Mei: Well, actually I've had this idea for a while now.
Ao Cang: (blushing with embarrassment)
