Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Jinjiang first release
Chapter 16
Cui Jue, who always kept strangers away, suddenly reached out to hug Su Li.
Su Li didn't know whether to feel frightened or flattered.
She stayed in Cui Jue's arms, not daring to move. Even the bones of her hands that were tightly grasping his collar loosened. Her slender fingertips bent firmly and lightly rested on the man's collar with the dark pattern of the sacred tree.
After Cui Jue kicked open a guest house, he put Su Li on a soft couch covered with reed green bed curtains.
Before Su Li's hips could sit firmly, a thin blanket had already covered her head.
Su Li grabbed the quilt blankly, raised her tear-stained almond-shaped eyes, and slowly looked towards Cui Jue.
With the dim candlelight, Su Li finally saw Cui Jue's face clearly.
The man was seven feet tall, with a clear mind and a handsome figure. He was wearing a black robe with Buddhist patterns, which he wore to attend the banquet. The cold black clothes could not suppress the murderous aura that emanated from him. It was like a cold blade breaking through the edge, sharp and intimidating.
Su Li couldn't help but shudder. She thought that she must have caused Cui Jue a lot of trouble today... Prince Jing would definitely exaggerate the matter of "Cui Jue brought her back" and tell Princess Chonghua.
Su Li is just the daughter of an insignificant family. How dare she affect the marriage between the Cui family and the royal princess... If she stays any longer, she will surely die without a burial place.
Su Li has been targeted by Prince Jing, and she must leave Jianye as soon as possible.
But the only way to leave Jianye is to seduce Cui Jue.
Thinking of this, Su Li saw Cui Jue about to leave and couldn't help but reach out and grab his sleeve: "Young Master..."
The young lady's voice was delicate and timid. When she called out, her slender and graceful body leaned forward, and the thin blanket slipped off her shoulders, revealing two very thin belts. Under the silk that was shiny in the light, two snow-white mountains were wrapped, but only their shape could be seen, not their appearance.
Cui Jue avoided his gaze and hesitated whether to withdraw his sleeves.
He rarely had such a moment of hesitation, and he was holding back his anger. If Su Li had not been frightened and a little confused, he would have scolded her for her inappropriate words and actions.
It was at this moment that Su Li finally reacted vaguely.
Her whole body felt like it was in a furnace, her internal organs were burning like karmic fire, and she felt extremely hot and dry.
Besides that, there is also discomfort between the leg bones...
It seems like the gurgling of spring water.
The unfamiliar feeling made her feel at a loss.
No matter how stupid Su Li was, she understood that the bowl of steaming hot vinegar and celery soup was probably more than just a hangover reliever.
It makes sense. Prince Jing came prepared, so how could the things he left in the house be just ordinary soup?
He must have been drugged.
Thinking of Qiu Gui, Su Li was terrified. She hurriedly said, "There is another maid in my room who has been knocked unconscious. Her name is Qiu Gui..."
She didn't say much, but Cui Jue could understand that she was simply afraid that Li Zhang would be blinded by lust and attack her maid.
Cui Jue understood: "Don't worry, I have ordered all the courtyards to increase their vigilance. What happened today will never happen again."
Su Li nodded, but she also understood what Cui Jue meant. He would only take precautions and would not break up with the royal family for her. From the perspective of pros and cons, helping Su Li was not worthwhile and would not bring any benefits.
Su Li felt a chill in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she had no right to resent Cui Jue for being so heartless.
To him, she was indeed not even as good as an ant. It was a blessing that Cui Jue could help her escape tonight.
In other words, if she finds herself in a den of wolves next time, Cui Jue will definitely turn a blind eye... He didn't want to make a big fuss today, simply because Cui Jue was worried about the gossips of many people at the party, or perhaps it was because Su Li looked so miserable and pitiful with tears in her eyes, which inadvertently touched Cui Jue's precious compassion.
Su Li must... add a few more chips to protect herself.
"Thank you, young master." Su Li thanked him, but she did not loosen her grip on Cui Jue.
When the man saw her fooling around, his eyes became cold and stern like frost and snow.
He yanked back his sleeve.
Su Li was hit so hard that she fell off the couch and rolled onto the cold floor tiles.
With a dull sound, Su Li slipped out from the quilt, her arms lying on the ground, her soft and tender flesh covered with bruises, and she grimaced in pain.
Although her arms were extremely heavy, Su Li did not dare to show her ugly appearance. She just frowned, and her eyes were filled with tears.
She cried out in pain softly.
This time, Cui Jue showed no mercy to Su Li. Instead, he stared coldly at her and said, "Su, I will tolerate you for the last time."
Su Li could hear the anger hidden in Cui Jue's words. She should have quit while she was ahead, but she knew that the opportunity to spend time together in private was rare. If she missed today, there might not be another chance in the future.
Besides, the medicine in her body is still taking effect...
So, Su Li held back the sweat all over her body, and she boldly took two steps closer and grabbed a piece of Cui Jue's clothes.
Su Li was the best at pretending to cry. Now she wanted to win the man's sympathy, so she started crying before she even said a word: "Young Master, save me..."
Cui Jue's expression was cold and stern, clearly unmoved. He was silent for a moment, then said, "I've already rescued you from Prince Jing's clutches. What else do you want?"
There was not a trace of tenderness in his words, and there was even a hint of harshness that was hardly noticeable. Su Li smiled bitterly in her heart, but she still had to show her obsession on her face.
Su Li hardened her heart and started to act recklessly again, hugging Cui Jue's narrow waist.
Two soft and boneless arms, like the red rope of Yue Lao, entangled with Cui Jue's tall and graceful body.
Su Li became more and more aggressive and pressed herself against Cui Jue's cold body. The girl's soft palms deliberately touched Cui Jue's well-defined back muscles through his clothes.
The banquet dress Cui Jue wore today was a dark-flowered satin tributed from Nanzhou. It had a dense texture and a warm luster. Most importantly, the fabric was thin and transparent, and windproof, making it very suitable for wearing in autumn and winter.
Through the thin robe, Su Li could feel the man's body was as hard as iron. He remained motionless even though she could touch his body with her fingers.
Su Li felt extremely ashamed, but she had no other choice. If she could succeed, as long as she endured it a few times, she could escape from the Su family...
Su Li's fingers trembled, her cheeks flushed, and her apricot face was full of spring.
Before she could remove the firewood from under the cauldron and untie Cui Jue's belt, the next moment, her cervical vertebra was firmly grasped by a large hand that came across.
Su Li was forced to tiptoe, step back step by step, and finally fell onto the bed.
Su Li lowered her head with difficulty and looked at the big hand with long slender finger bones.
The man's white tiger's mouth was tightening around her throat, suppressing her breathing, and his thumb and four fingers were pressing on both sides of her cervical vertebrae, restricting her blood circulation.
Su Li had difficulty breathing and her face turned crimson purple, but Cui Jue was not moved at all by her miserable condition.
He leaned very close, his pair of black pupils were indifferent and emotionless, not as passionate as Su Li had imagined.
Su Li shed tears helplessly, and faintly felt a fishy and sweet smell of blood in her mouth.
She felt dizzy and had little doubt that she might die here today.
Soon, Su Li heard Cui Jue ask slowly, "Su, am I giving you too much face? I've given you the opportunity to commit crimes again and again and fool me."
Su Li struggled and tried hard to pry Cui Jue's hand away, but no matter how she resisted, it was in vain. That hand was like a boiling iron, burning her neck and lingering.
When she was about to suffocate and faint, Cui Jue finally let go of her hand.
Su Li felt a chill all over her body, even to the very bones. She collapsed on the couch, coughing until tears streamed down her face.
Su Li wiped away her tears and said to Cui Jue, "It's not that I intended to offend my superiors. I drank the hangover soup left by Prince Jing, and he put a drug in it. If I don't make love with a man, the aphrodisiac poison will be released, and I will bleed to death..."
Su Li had no other choice but to take a drastic measure and deceive Cui Jue.
Unexpectedly, Cui Jue was the most heartless person. Upon hearing this, he only asked with a half-smile, "Since you are so afraid of death, why don't you obey Prince Jing?"
Su Li closed her eyes, staring at the red marks on her neck, and shyly confessed: "I, I only have the eldest master in my heart... I don't want to be intimate with others."
Hearing this, Cui Jue narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing whether he was surprised or angry.
After all, Su Li also knew that she had almost died at the hands of Cui Jue just now, and now she was confessing her true feelings to him. In Cui Jue's eyes, this action must have been insane.
Su Li felt desolate and she thought she was going crazy. She wondered what sins she had committed in her previous life that she had to feign friendship with this bloodthirsty madman in this life.
Cui Jue was too lazy to pay attention to Su Li anymore. He turned around and left.
This time, Su Li had no choice but to give up and hold Cui Jue's arm again.
The young lady clung to him and refused to let go.
Cui Jue himself was surprised that he was so kind to Su Li, allowing her to repeatedly commit insubordination. The man tapped his fingertips lightly against the jade pendant at his waist, his expression filled with extreme impatience.
Su Li had no doubt that if she continued to pull, Cui Jue would strangle her to death.
But today... is Su Li's last chance.
She closed her eyes and frowned, suppressing her shame as she shivered as she untied the thin strap around her neck and tore off the last piece of clothing that was wrapped around her body. Suppressing her trembling, she smiled at Cui Jue and said, "If the eldest young master leaves and abandons me, even if I explode and die, I will leave a blood letter to frame you... I will pinch and leave kiss marks on my neck to create the illusion that I have been brutally abused by the eldest young master. If you don't believe me, try it yourself."
Cui Jue sneered, "Su Li, do you think that if you act like this, I will have sex with you and give you the title of my wife? You are really..."
"Yes, I am too mean and too ignorant." Su Li continued Cui Jue's words with a smile. She had been frank with Cui Jue. In front of a man, she stripped off all her material possessions and presented herself to him as a gift with all her sincerity.
Everything is for freedom, everything is for a new life in the future.
Su Li suppressed her shame and tried to convince herself over and over again.
"I don't seek the position of the eldest son's wife in the harem. I know myself well. For a mortal like me, even being a concubine is too high a goal."
Su Li smiled brightly.
Since Su Li didn't want dignity, Cui Jue didn't give her any face in shock and anger.
He didn't avoid Su Li's flattery. Instead, he looked at her with a cold attitude, examining her as if she were a dead object. "How could there be such a shameless young woman like you? You deliberately approached me, only wanting to have physical contact with me?"
Cui Jue's words were like a sharp blade that pierced Su Li's heart, gouged her flesh, cut open her heart completely, and displayed it bloody to everyone... Look, in the eyes of the nobles, she was so lowly and shameful.
Cui Jue was not wrong, she was indeed dissolute and frivolous.
She has no face to lose, she has already given it all.
Su Li has fallen to such a state that she only hopes to get what she wants as soon as possible, to give up everything in the Su family and fly away, as if by doing so, she can regain a tiny bit of dignity.
Su Li said numbly, "As the eldest young master said, I have ulterior motives. To get close to you, there's nothing I wouldn't do. You know, it's not just the Cui family living in this courtyard, there are also wives of various clans, Princess Chonghua... There are quite a few powerful families who are jealous of the Cui family. Who can guarantee that they will use this incident to stir up trouble and humiliate the Wudong Cui family! Is it really worth it to gamble the eldest young master's reputation for a woman from a humble family like me?!"
Cui Jue was so angry that he laughed: "Grandfather allowed you to live in the Cui family, but you repay kindness with hatred..."
"Yes, I only have this one chance. Since the eldest master knows that I am willing to perish together with him, why don't you help me? As long as the poison is removed, I will never cling to the eldest master..." Su Li has already given up. If she can't succeed today, she is afraid that she will never have another chance in the future... Why not give it a try?
It is early autumn and the night wind is cold.
Su Li was shivering from the cold.
She knelt naked beside the couch.
Her jet-black hair hung down, draped over her shoulders and flowing down her waist, setting off Su Li's fair skin and beautiful face, making her look as beautiful as a rare flower or a dazzling herb, charming and attractive.
After weighing the pros and cons, Cui Jue admitted defeat for the first time.
Su Li was shameless, but the Cui family still had some dignity and could not afford to lose face in public. They were accused of being a womanizing son of Cui Jue, who had secretly had an affair with a distant cousin without a matchmaker...
The man paused, lifted Su Li's snow-white chin with his fingertips, and said in an unkind voice: "Madam Su, how do you want me to help you?"
Su Li widened her almond eyes in surprise.
She sacrificed so much... Cui Jue was finally caught.
Before Su Li could take the initiative to hug Cui Jue, she soon realized something was wrong.
Because Cui Jue was still neatly dressed, he didn't even take off his belt.
But Cui Jue was clearly approaching, and his pair of phoenix eyes, as white as snow and frost, reflected her eyebrows.
Cui Jue reached out and gently pressed on Su Li's leg bone. The coolness of his fingertips made her shiver.
Su Li was kneeling unsteadily, and her palm pressed on the wrist bone that Cui Jue handed over. She could see the veins on Cui Jue's arm, and he was using some skillful force.
Finally, Cui Jue stretched out his hand and forced Su Li to separate...
Knee bone.
In this way, Cui Jue forced Su Li into his hands.
Su Li was trembling all over.
She wanted to escape, but it was too late.
The girl's rosy lips... were pressed down by the man's slender finger bones.
Su Li thought that this process seemed to be different from the books she had read. The scenes of the skirt being untied, the fragrant breeze blowing against her face, and the sweat flowing down the jade pillow were all wrong... She felt only fear in her heart.
She forgot that those obscene pictures all depicted a relationship between a man and a woman. Cui Jue had no interest in her, so his actions were cold, hard and rough, without any sympathy for Su Li.
She is not even as good as a plaything.
But Cui Jue still did as she wished.
His fingers searched and wandered.
Su Li's scalp felt numb and her breathing became restrained. She bit her lower lip tightly, not knowing whether to endure it or not.
It was not until Cui Jue learned it by himself that he discovered the moist and soft lips here.
Cui Jue endured those things that were stacked and entangled with his finger bones.
It's all boiling water that doesn't belong to you.
Burning like fire.
He watched Su Li's breathing become disordered and she gradually lost consciousness.
Cui Jue didn't allow Su Li to hide.
With his other free hand, he tightly grasped her jaw and asked sarcastically, "Is that so? Su Li."
Looking at Su Li's distraught look, Cui Jue closed his eyes slightly, his voice cold and without any emotion or desire.
"It seems that you are enjoying it."
