Chapter 26. The first person to be kissed until they fainted...
A tingling sensation traveled through her tongue, causing Bie Zhi's eyelashes to flutter. She swallowed, and looked on with delight at the slight bewilderment that flickered in her eyes.
Just like in the novel, it had a peculiar quality that was hard to describe.
Biezhi instinctively probed another inch in, but couldn't push it in at all.
Fu Huaiqing's expression darkened as he stared intently at her. The girl's tongue licked her lips, and he frowned slightly. Taking advantage of her inattention, he grabbed her wrist with one hand and pushed her away by pressing his other hand against her shoulder.
Immersed in the strangeness, Bechi glared at him with displeasure.
He was the one who started it all, yet he allowed the magistrate to set fires while forbidding the common people to even light lamps?
Ha, she insisted on kissing me!
However, Ji Ran seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and raised his palm, which was pressed against her shoulder, to cover the lower half of her face completely.
Biezhi: "..."
For a moment, she felt that she was no different from a lecher.
The only difference is that others would scream or refuse verbally, while Ji Ran is a deaf person who cannot speak and has no other choice but to resist.
After pondering for a while, Bie Zhi felt that he still couldn't be impatient for quick success.
We should proceed gradually, so as not to scare people away.
What if they're on guard next time and don't give it to you?
Biezhi leaned back slightly, her bright almond-shaped eyes flashing, indicating that she would not go any further. She bent down to pick up the food box and opened it one by one, not forgetting to bring over a pot of sake.
She poured half a cup of sake and handed it to Jiran, but after a long while he didn't take it, she suspiciously hummed in agreement: "Not even a drop?"
Fu Huaiqing's gaze swept over the rippled sake, and he couldn't help but recall the way she looked after drinking and getting drunk late at night half a month ago, but she seemed to have no memory of that time at all.
He took the wine cup and sipped it.
This was the first time Biezhi had ever seen Jiran drink alcohol. His decisive and natural manner was like that of a seasoned drinker. She muttered, "He's quite the expert. He doesn't seem like someone who can't drink."
Fu Huaiqing tightened his grip on the wine cup with his fingertips, and calmly placed the cup back down.
Bessa took a sip of sake, tilted her head back slightly, turned to face Jiran, and looked at him without saying a word. Her gaze lingered on his face, inch by inch, and finally settled on the man's thin lips, which were wet with sake.
She had thought for what felt like the umpteenth time, "If only you could talk."
Sometimes, talking to myself for a long time makes my mouth dry, but—
Biezhi's expression froze for a moment, and then she suddenly remembered the voice of Prince Su. Her body trembled involuntarily, and she hurriedly said, "If it's a voice similar to Prince Su's, we might as well pretend to be mute. With such a handsome face, but a voice like a water buffalo, we'd better not."
Fu Huaiqing: "..."
His lips twitched, and his face darkened.
No matter how prepared I am, I still can't accept the word 'water buffalo'.
"Indeed, God is somewhat fair." Biezhi reluctantly accepted it, as long as he didn't speak with that face anymore, "He was still given some shortcomings."
What might seem harmless to others is unacceptable to her.
Biezhi frowned slightly, finding it hard to believe, and muttered to herself, "Suddenly I feel a little sorry for the court officials. If I had to hear his voice every day at court, I would definitely resign."
"If I were his wife, I would definitely find a chance to drug him and make him mute," she said resolutely. Rather than watching him ruin his face, she would rather be mute.
Fu Huaiqing's face was sullen and indifferent.
He will go to the mountain retreat tomorrow to inquire about how the drug was developed.
Biezhi glanced at Jiran. He sat upright under the eaves, his expression no different from usual. However, the night was so dark that she couldn't see the emotions that flashed across his eyes.
She tilted her head and stared at the man without moving, then sighed.
"From today onwards, I will reduce the number of times I come here." Bessa took small sips of sake, the words of Prince Su echoing in her ears.
If her master doesn't refuse this business, things will only get more and more complicated in the future. She doesn't know how many court officials she will offend. Even if she doesn't want to after it's done, she will still have to leave the capital: "If I offend the court officials in the capital, it would be merciful if they didn't hire someone to kill me in the future. Maybe they were a holy monk who ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist prayers in their past lives."
She paused for a moment, then said, "I'm planning to leave."
Previously, I had only considered it, but now it's really confirmed.
Regardless of whether the Qin family had already announced to the world that she was the second daughter of the Qin family, or her subsequent actions that offended many court officials, it would be difficult for her to stay in the capital. She might even be hunted down. Thinking of such a life of wandering around, she took a deep breath: "After thinking it over, Huishui Town is not a good place. They will definitely go to Huishui Town to look for me. Otherwise, I should go to Youzhou."
Youzhou is located in the Jiangnan region and is a very livable place.
Fu Huaiqing clenched his fists, realizing that she was seriously considering the future. He looked at the girl with an inscrutable expression and his thin lips pressed together.
“If we are accidentally found,” Biezhi thought for a moment and said, “then let’s play hide-and-seek with them in Youzhou first, and then head south to Qinghe Town.”
She had been to Qinghe Town once and liked it very much.
“If they chase me back to Qinghe Town, I’ll head north.” Biezhi hadn’t decided where to head north yet, but she had a general plan. She thought to herself, “If I’m still found if I go north, I can go west and cross the border to Louming Kingdom.”
If they wanted to catch up after her after leaving Li Dynasty, they would have to consider whether it was feasible. However, she would not leave Li Dynasty easily unless absolutely necessary.
Fu Huaiqing frowned as he looked at the thoughtful girl. In just half an hour, she had already considered everything. A hint of helplessness flickered in her bright almond-shaped eyes, and when she suddenly lifted her eyelids to look at her, her expression was mixed with reluctance.
The other branches remain silent, reluctant to part.
Before today, when Biezhi considered leaving the capital, she would usually think of taking Jiran with her, but today she clearly had no such thoughts.
Biezhi's gaze swept over the man's handsome, well-defined face. The bright, clear moonlight, falling in abundance, made his sharp and refined features appear even more radiant and translucent.
She felt she needed to look around a bit longer, wondering if she would ever meet another man with a tall, handsome figure like Ji Ran again. "If I'm being chased, I'll have to be alone. Bringing you along will only put you in trouble too."
Heaven has already been very unkind to Ji Ran, and I absolutely cannot allow him to suffer in such a difficult situation.
If there's anything to regret, Biezhi thinks it's that she hasn't truly kissed him yet, like the kind of passionate, blush-inducing kisses described in novels.
She pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Fu Huaiqing knew at a glance that she was drunk again.
Biezhi's eyes were no longer clear, but slightly dazed. She tilted her head to look at Jiran, clicked her tongue and muttered, "So stingy, won't even give me a kiss."
It's as if he's the one who's at a disadvantage.
She's just as good as me!
“If you don’t kiss me, there are plenty of men who are willing to kiss me. The men who want to marry me can line up from Zhuque Gate to Ding’an Gate.” Biezhi wasn’t lying at all. Many men came out to chat with her, including some who were as handsome as Pan An, but she politely declined them all. “You will definitely regret it in the future. I told you not to cherish the opportunity in front of you.”
Fu Huaiqing was both angry and amused, looking at her with a wry smile. She knew that what she said was true. Matchmakers had come to propose to Ling Feng one after another, tirelessly, but she had not agreed to any of them.
As he listened to Biezhi's rambling words, and saw the girl's eyes becoming increasingly hazy and filled with intoxication, his own gaze gradually darkened.
After finishing a pot of sake, Bessa stood up unsteadily, waved his hand, and said, "It's getting late, I'm leaving."
Fu Huaiqing remained silent and followed her steps.
Biezhi was indeed drunk, but not to the point of being incoherent or sluggish. She still knew what she had to do, what she could do, and what she couldn't do.
As her tall, dark figure loomed over the path before her, she turned to look at Ji Ran, who was following her at a distance, and waved to him: "I can go back by myself."
Fu Huaiqing stared intently at her retreating figure as she turned and left again, his throat bobbing slightly.
He clearly hoped to disappear silently from her sight, but when he heard that she also wanted to leave, he felt a surge of irritation.
He suppressed his impatience and followed.
Biezhi could tell that Jiran hadn't listened to her and gone back, but was following her just as before. She suddenly felt that she couldn't quite understand him.
He has rejected himself, and he has also taken the initiative.
But if he thought about going any further, he would refuse.
Not long ago, Ji Ran rejected her, but now he's following her around like a shadow. What is he thinking? Bie Zhi couldn't understand. Unfortunately, he's a deaf man who can't speak, so it's hard for her to get any answers from him.
Thinking of this, she stopped and turned around.
Meeting the man's clear, deep eyes for a moment, she quickly stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed his tightly pursed lips again, wetting his cool lips little by little.
Fu Huaiqing's breath hitched, and he lowered his gaze to the girl whose eyelashes were trembling slightly.
Biezhi waited for a long time, but he didn't push her away like before. The corners of the man's thin lips subtly turned up a little.
She licked and fiddled haphazardly for a while, then smiled contentedly.
Biezhi was very satisfied, satisfied with Jiran's reaction. Tired from kissing, she took a small half step back, widening the distance between them. Before her tiptoe could land, her waist was suddenly grabbed by a large hand and pulled back, instantly crashing into the man's strong and powerful chest.
Before she could react, her vision went black for a moment, followed by the man's cool lips.
The girl in his arms unconsciously took a half step back. Fu Huaiqing's eyes darkened, and he took a step forward, forcefully pushing her legs apart with his right leg, closing the distance between them.
He forced open her slightly pursed lips, invading her territory, and lingered on them, refusing to let go.
The man's kiss was fierce, so fierce that even Biezhi could hardly withstand it.
Her heart was pounding, and the large hand gripping her waist tightened. She quietly lifted her eyelids and clearly saw the emotions lingering in the depths of the man's eyes, his desire overflowing.
Seemingly realizing his lack of focus, he bit his lower lip. An indescribable tingling sensation instantly climbed up Biezhi's back and rushed into her mind, causing her to lose her senses and stop breathing.
Slightly out of breath, she pushed against the man's chest, trying to end the increasingly uncomfortable kiss. Unexpectedly, his aggression deepened with her movement, completely stealing her breath, as if he wanted to tear her apart and devour her.
The air around us grew thinner and thinner.
For a fleeting moment, Begzhi thought she might be the first person to be kissed until she fainted.
The moment that thought arose, the man who had been kissing her lips suddenly pulled away, and a surge of breath rushed into Biezhi's nostrils. She bent over, panting heavily.
Fu Huaiqing stared at her, his gaze lingering for a long while.
He lost control.
