Chapter 283: Waking Up 4
Seeing him like this, Jiang Fei subconsciously shrank back. Just as she was about to move her legs, he held her waist tightly.
"Don't move, be obedient." Pei Jing's voice was a little coaxing. "If you move, I'll paint you like a cat."
Jiang Fei froze and didn't dare to move. She just watched him holding the red pen, and the slightly cool tip of the pen gently fell on her eyebrows.
His movements were very light, as if he was sketching a rare piece of porcelain. After a short while, a tiny flower ornament was left between her eyebrows.
Pei Jing put down his pen, stepped back and looked at her carefully, seeing a dot of cinnabar between her eyebrows, like a red plum blossom reflecting the snow.
The smile in his eyes gradually deepened: "This is what makes it look better."
Just as Jiang Fei was about to reach out to touch it, Pei Jing grabbed her wrist.
Pei Jing's gaze drifted down and landed on her collarbone, which was slightly exposed at her neckline. His Adam's apple moved, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
The next moment, he raised his hand and swept the memorials on the table aside, and the neatly stacked memorials scattered across half of the table.
Before Jiang Fei could react, he pressed her down on the table.
Pei Jing held up his arms and covered her with his nose against hers.
He stared at the petals between her eyebrows, his eyes burning. "It's a pity to only paint them between the eyebrows. Such a beautiful color."
"Then... where do you want to draw it?" Jiang Fei was both nervous and excited.
Pei Jing's gaze slowly moved downwards. The collar of Jiang Fei's brocade robe was peeled open. As soon as it came into contact with the slightly cold air, goose bumps appeared on Jiang Fei's body.
Pei Jing certainly noticed it. He lowered his head, rubbed his hot lips across her shoulder soothingly, and suddenly opened his mouth and bit her.
Jiang Fei took a deep breath and gripped the edge of the table with her fingertips.
Pei Jing's tongue swept across that place, as if to make up for the light bite just now, and then stepped back to look at the red mark.
Then he picked up the red brush, gently touched the tip of the brush to the tooth mark, and carefully traced along the reddened skin.
The cinnabar and scarlet ink blend together, gradually outlining a blooming red plum blossom.
"Here..." The tip of the pen slowly moved down and touched Jiang Fei's open chest, "I want to draw a lotus with two stems."
Jiang Fei grabbed his wrist: "You have to wash it after you finish painting."
"I'll help you wash it." Pei Jing's Adam's apple rolled.
The tip of the pen moved, and the cinnabar spread out lingering lines on the snow-white skin.
Jiang Fei panted lightly and raised her head, her black hair spread out on the memorial.
Pei Jing lowered his eyes and looked at her raised neck, the lines of which were as slender as new shoots in early spring.
His eyes darkened a little more. The tip of the pen paused at the center of the lotus, then moved gently downward along the full arc, leaving a very thin cinnabar line.
Pei Jing leaned over and kissed away the moisture from the corners of her eyes, but his pen did not stop writing.
Vermillion streaked across her waist, outlining a winding flower stem on her flat abdomen.
Then he put down his pen, leaned over and held her tightly in his arms.
Pei Jing stood up and took a look. The newly painted lotus left an imprint on the dark robe. He pulled Jiang Fei's hand and put it on his belt.
"Queen, look, my clothes are dirty."
He leaned over and whispered to Jiang Fei, "My Queen, please help me take it off."
The wind and snow outside the window were beating against the window, but they could not stop the heat from the floor heating from rising up and melting the snow outside the window.
Duan Jiu looked at the candlelight that suddenly went out in the hall, and silently changed his hope that the emperor would finish reviewing the memorials today to tomorrow.
…
After several days, the system was finally online.
Jiang Fei almost forgot about the gossip, but she remembered it as soon as the system came online.
"Are you willing to go online? Didn't the main system say it would tell you when you woke up?"
The system pretended to be confused, "He didn't tell me."
The main system actually told her, but she also had to save face. She originally thought that Jiang Fei would forget about it after a while, but she didn't expect her to bring it up as soon as she came online.
"Oh?" Jiang Fei's tone was drawn out, and the back of the system's neck inexplicably tightened when hearing it.
"Um..." The system changed the subject: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"The main system didn't tell you, how did you know I had something to talk to you about?"
system:"……"
Jiang Fei leaned on the soft couch, twisting the orange slices between her fingertips and putting them into her mouth. "You haven't been online for so many days. It seems you are very busy and tired."
"I'm upgrading."
"Upgrading requires several days of sleep?" Jiang Fei raised an eyebrow. "The main system said the other day that you were tired..."
The system said without reply: "I'm a hard worker, of course. That's database sorting! Yes, sorting data is really tiring!"
"It seems you are quite busy."
The system coughed dryly twice. "It's indeed very busy, but... I'm also processing some urgent data. As you know, data transmission is very time-consuming and energy-consuming. I need to recharge."
Jiang Fei sat up alertly, "What kind of connection do you use for data transmission? We can use a data cable in modern times, just plug it in--"
"Shut up!" The system issued a series of harsh electric sounds: "Host, you, you, you...what are you talking about!"
Jiang Fei slowly broke another orange petal and said, "I said charging the data cable, what else can I do?"
She deliberately dragged out her tone, "A certain system, what do you think it is?"
The system suddenly seemed to be paused.
After a while, the system said confidently: "Jiang Fei, you have no conscience. I sacrificed myself for you——"
"Enjoy it while you're at it."
System: "Yes, enjoy it by the way. Oh no, do you know how much I sacrificed to get you to stay?"
Jiang Fei: "How old? Three times a night? Two hours each time?"
The system was speechless for a moment, "Does Pei Jing know this side of you?"
"He loves this side of me." Jiang Fei said proudly, "But I dare not get a fever in front of him easily, as it would put my life in danger. By the way, how did I stay here?"
The system said: "Through the back door?"
Jiang Fei hesitated for a moment, "Excuse me, is it a proper backdoor or an improper backdoor?"
"..." The system said angrily, "A real backdoor! The main system has closed all the channels connecting to other world lines, so you can stay here at random times. However, if you do this, you will also suffer a huge backlash."
Jiang Fei felt a little guilty, "What backlash?"
The system's voice was filled with distress. "What else could it be? The energy that should have flowed to other world lines has been blocked by him. It's like blocking all the water in a lake. The water keeps accumulating, and sooner or later the embankment will collapse. The data is piled up inside him, and it's very uncomfortable."
Jiang Fei felt even more guilty, but suddenly an idea flashed in her mind and she felt something was wrong.
"Is this what the main system told you?"
"Yeah." The system said honestly, "So I helped him share some of the data, and he felt much more comfortable."
Jiang Fei: “…”
Jiang Fei was too lazy to say whether it was more comfortable to share the data or for some other reason.
The system is really naive. It is still counting money for others after being sold by the main system. It seems that the main system has put in a lot of effort to cheat people into getting the system.
Jiang Fei's face suddenly changed, not knowing what she was thinking about.
"What's wrong with you?" The system keenly noticed her changes.
"Could it be..." Jiang Fei murmured, "Could it be that the main system deliberately assigned me to you and dug this pit for you to jump into?"
