Chapter 97: The Lost Princess Bai Yueguang 28: Anger Him
In the darkness, I don’t know how long it took, but I heard someone’s voice and a familiar sense of security.
Wen Qianning slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was the face that was so close to her.
Ji Hanlin in front of him seemed to have not closed his eyes for a long time, and there was a hint of fatigue between his brows.
But when she opened her eyes and looked at him, the man's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Ningning."
Wen Qianning was stunned and blinked before confirming that this was not an illusion.
She subconsciously tried to sit up, but her weakness kept her from moving, and she collapsed, cold sweat immediately breaking out on her forehead. Ji Hanlin, noticing this, immediately half-cradled her in his arms, moving with extreme caution, as if he were holding a fragile treasure.
"Don't move. You haven't recovered yet." The man's voice was filled with heartache. "Are you feeling unwell?"
Wen Qianning stared at him, shaking her head in bewilderment. Before she lost consciousness, she had been in the Prime Minister's Residence, but now, looking at her surroundings...it felt as if she were back in Yaoguang Palace?
There were too many unanswered questions in her mind, and Wen Qianning couldn't help but ask:
"Why...are you in the Prime Minister's Residence?"
Having not spoken for a few days, her voice inevitably became a little hoarse, and Ji Hanlin handed a glass of water to her mouth.
After drinking the glass of water, her throat indeed felt better. She raised her head again and looked at the concerned man in front of her.
Ji Hanlin's eyes met hers. After a moment's silence, he slowly said, "Because I'm afraid something might happen to you."
These words hit her heart like a heavy hammer.
Obviously, she was tired of him and dumped him, so why did Ji Hanlin still worry about her safety?
The man's gaze on her was too intense, and Wen Qianning felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. She wanted to look away, but he held her gaze tightly, leaving her with no way to escape.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say, so she could only instinctively shrink back, trying to distance herself from the man.
Sensing the girl's resistance, Ji Hanlin felt a surge of discomfort in his heart. He could only pretend nothing had happened, withdrew his hand expressionlessly, and said, "I'll ask the imperial physician to come and check you out."
In the past few days, Wen Qianning has been in a trance.
After waking up, she realized that the development of the situation was completely beyond her expectations.
Now that Ji Hanlin had unified the empire, he sat on the throne, becoming known as the New Emperor. With the immense weight of the nation on his shoulders, he was busy with official duties, yet he also focused most of his attention on taking care of her.
For three meals a day, the man would always show up on time, sit next to her, and take care of her diet meticulously.
"When I had lunch with you earlier, I remember you loved these. The chefs at Yaoguang Palace haven't changed, so the taste shouldn't change either. Ningning, why are you eating so little?"
Seeing that Wen Qianning didn't move her chopsticks much, Ji Hanlin frowned and asked her with a somewhat cold tone.
Looking at that slender hand, Wen Qianning couldn't help but sigh. She could feel the concern in his eyes, so strong that it was impossible to ignore.
But she couldn't respond, so she could only keep a straight face and pretend not to hear.
Trying to use this method to make the male protagonist give up was obviously ineffective, because Ji Hanlin seemed to not understand the rejection in her actions, and still looked calm and composed, which made her indifference seem like a powerless struggle.
What made Wen Qianning even more speechless was at night.
Lying on the large bed, at night, it should be her time to sleep quietly alone.
But the young emperor would stay overnight every night and take her into his arms without any negotiation. Her struggles and rejections were met with the man's embrace, which tightened even more. He whispered in her ear like he was coaxing a child:
"Stop making trouble and go to sleep."
Ji Hanlin is no longer the same proton that she could bully at will. Wen Qianning nestled in his arms, her body stiff and a wave of despair in her heart.
She turned her head away in a huff, not looking at him, not even sleepy at all. The man beside her closed his eyes, and even hugging his beloved girl like this, he was already satisfied.
His movements and his breath all revealed a strong possessiveness.
Staring at the golden thread patterns on the top of the tent, Wen Qianning couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart.
I don't understand what this person is thinking?
Anyone can see that the male protagonist not only did not let her go, but became even more obsessed with her after ascending the throne. That emotion did not fade with the growth of power, but became even stronger.
Now, he is the master of the world, with all the harems and courtyards to choose from. What kind of beauty does he want? But he still stays by her side every day, declaring his love in this tough and clingy way.
Wen Qianning felt helpless. Hadn't she completed her original mission so well? Why had the current situation deviated from the original plot again? Was she... going to fail again?
Why is every world like this? Wen Qianning couldn't help but doubt the system. Are these male protagonists really not the same person?
The male protagonist...is there really no relationship between him and her in the real world?
However, there was no answer to these thoughts at the moment. Wen Qianning sighed silently and decided that she had to be firm in rejecting the male protagonist.
So that night, when Ji Hanlin walked into the Yaoguang Palace as usual and hugged the girl and locked her in his arms, Wen Qianning, who was feeling depressed, finally couldn't help it.
She pressed her hands tightly against his chest, forcing him to distance himself a little bit. Her voice was filled with long-suppressed anger as she sarcastically said:
"Ji Hanlin, what on earth do you want to do? I dumped you before, and you're still so confused."
"I haven't liked you for a long time, don't you understand?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere became tense.
The man who was originally smiling turned cold. He did not answer immediately, but just stared at her. His eyes were so cold and gloomy that Wen Qianning felt nervous, but she still gritted her teeth, straightened her back, and refused to give in.
The anger that had been suppressed in his heart was about to burst out, but Ji Hanlin was still trying hard to restrain himself for her.
But it seemed that the little princess didn't notice his forbearance at all, and was still saying some words that angered him without knowing the consequences.
After a long while, the man finally spoke, sneering, "I really want to make you speechless."
"Ningning, these days, I took care that your body was not fully recovered, so I refrained from touching you." His voice was low, and every word he uttered was enough to terrify Wen Qianning. "Otherwise, believe it or not, I would..."
The girl was obviously frightened. There was a hint of panic in her eyes and her heart skipped a beat.
"Don't talk nonsense, men and women shouldn't be intimate. I don't know you well, so it's better for us to keep some distance!"
Ignoring her resistance, Ji Hanlin grabbed the girl with his arms and pressed her tightly into his arms, his hot breath spraying on her ears.
"You're not familiar with me..." He bit her ear and smiled, "Okay, you forced me to do that."
It was not until this moment that Wen Qianning truly realized—
Maybe I really angered the man.
Before she could even show weakness or beg for mercy, the man grabbed her chin. The force wasn't harsh, but it was enough to immobilize her.
Ji Hanlin couldn't bear it any longer, he lowered his head and kissed the girl fiercely.
It wasn't a gentle kiss, but rather a punishment that took away all her breath. Wen Qianning's eyes widened, a wave of panic rising in her heart. She pushed hard, but his embrace was like a solid wall, and there was no way to escape.
Their lips and tongues were forced to intertwine, the girl's eyes gradually became moist, and tears rolled stubbornly in her eyes.
"Enough... Ji Hanlin..." The vague voice was blocked between his lips and teeth, and he couldn't cry out.
However, the man did not let go. Instead, her trembling aroused his interest even more.
"Your Highness, please save your request for mercy for later."
A pair of big hands stroked her slender back, holding her firmly in his arms, leaving her no way to retreat.
Tears finally fell from the corners of her eyes, glittering and shining in the dim candlelight. Her stubbornness and grievance mixed together, making her even more charming.
Ji Hanlin probably couldn't bear to see Wen Qianning cry. The girl's tearful look was like a blunt knife scraping across his heart.
So, his kiss finally slowed down, but he was still reluctant to leave her lips. He changed from plundering to slowly indulging her, wanting to melt her completely into his bones and blood.
"Ningning, you are mine."
The two people's hair is intertwined, so close that there is no distinction between you and me.
Wen Qianning's body trembled, and the tears from the corners of her eyes slid down her temples, forming a wet area.
She lost her composure for a moment, and she couldn't help but frown. With tears in her eyes, she continued to speak the unfinished words of begging for mercy: "You, be gentle..."
Ji Hanlin was also not feeling well. He could only act on his intuition. His palm naturally fell on her back, trying to comfort her and make her relax.
The girl's grievance and powerlessness at this moment all turned into low sobs, which seemed so pitiful. But the more so, the more Ji Hanlin's possessive desire was aroused.
Not wanting to hear words like "I don't like you" from her again, he used his actions to trap her tightly until she could no longer utter a word of refusal.
"Ningning, you don't know, during these years of separation, there has not been a single moment when I haven't thought about you."
"I want to be by your side."
"I want to kiss you."
"To think... to treat you so excessively."
The aroused man looked very sexy at this moment. He kissed the girl's cheek lovingly and expressed his love for her word by word.
I was already in such a miserable state, and this guy kept saying so many ambiguous words in my ear. Isn't this annoying? Wen Qianning angrily hit him.
“…”
Forget it, I shouldn't say these things to this unromantic little princess. Ji Hanlin pulled the corners of his mouth speechlessly and simply focused on one thing.
A pool of spring water disturbed by the wind, wants to escape, but cannot.
There was no mercy, everything was too close, so close that my breathing and heartbeat were completely controlled, and there was nowhere to hide in that scorching heat.
Until the end, he smiled in her ear and said: "If you deliberately irritate me again in the future, I will use this method to make you remember who you belong to."
The night was deep, and only the intertwined sounds remained in the hall, like a dream or illusion.
That night, she moaned for water three times. Wen Qianning was completely trapped in this forced intimacy. She was unable to resist and could only be forced to endure it.
She had originally just wanted to resist and try to get the plot back on track, but she hadn't expected to provoke the man's wrath instead, and she ended up being completely taken advantage of.
Wen Qianning was so upset that she almost couldn't cry.
