"Ouch! I'm so sorry!" Wei Cai cried out, reaching out with her left hand, which was holding the bottle stopper, to grab Lü Xian's right hand, which had been scalded by the boiling water. She put down the bottle and quickly checked Lü Xian's hand. "I'm so sorry, are you burned?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing!" Lu Xian replied stiffly. Wei Cai held his hand in front of his chest and examined him closely. Wei Cai lowered her head, and beneath her fragrant black hair, a section of her fair neck was exposed in front of Lu Xian's eyes. Lu Xian felt that this section of neck was dazzlingly white.
With a "clatter," the bottle stopper fell to the ground from Wei Cai's hand. She stared at Lü Xian with wide eyes in astonishment. It turned out that when Lü Xian saw Wei Cai's fair and slender neck, he couldn't control himself for a moment. When he withdrew his hand, he secretly pinched Wei Cai's small hand in return.
Wei Cai is possessed by a lion-roaring beast, and her life is just waiting to abuse her husband to complete the transformation. However, due to a series of unforeseen events, she is still single. When unrelated men get close to her, her legs go weak, and she can only hold on with the little rationality in her mind.
Even Caixia could see that she was on the verge of collapse, almost confusing her with the exploding beast. At this moment, she could no longer resist Lü Xian's teasing.
Lu Xian's appearance was already attractive to women, and with Wang Yao's involvement as the matchmaker, Lu Xian's gentle pinch was practically sending a very clear signal to Wei Cai.
Wei Cai was stunned for a few seconds, her fair face suddenly turning crimson. She glared at Lü Xian fiercely, then subtly reached out and pinched Lü Xian's hand hard. She knew that a meeting was in progress and many eyes were watching from both the stage and the audience, so she couldn't make any too many responses.
After pinching it, Wei Cai remained calm, bent down to pick up the bottle stopper from the ground, re-stuffed the water bottle, and carried it down from the stage. However, her steps became noticeably more graceful and charming, with a lot more elegance in her light and graceful movements.
As Lü Xian watched Wei Cai slowly walk away, he felt his heart swaying along with her graceful figure. After a while, he felt a pain in his hand. Looking down, he saw that Wei Cai had pinched him so hard that a large bruise had appeared on his hand, with blood even seeping out from the center.
Holy crap! Although Lü Xian didn't defend himself at all when Wei Cai pinched him, he was an immortal, and a Void Refining Realm immortal at that. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to make a hole in him even with a nail. Just what kind of skill does this woman have that she could make him bleed with just one pinch?
However, Lu Xian felt not alarmed but delighted by the pain in his hand. Why? It was because he had not felt pain for a very, very long time since he became an immortal, and now, experiencing it for the first time, he was fascinated by it.
The slight stinging, the tingling, the swelling, and the subtle throbbing all surged through his hands and into his heart. Add to that Wei Cai's swaying figure as she walked away with her back to him, and then, just before leaving, she suddenly turned around and gave him a tender, alluring glance…
Lu Xian suddenly felt he couldn't sit still any longer. It was as if an ancient tree that had stood for thousands of years had suddenly been reborn. The power of youth kept washing over his long-dead soul through the slight stinging in his hands. What a wonderful feeling!
"Article Three: When a celestial being enters the ocean realm, they should proactively contact the local ocean deity, inform them of their identity, and accept the supervision requirements put forward by the deity..."
Hu Fei's voice was still ringing in her ears, but Lü Xian felt her spirit body rise up and dance joyfully in the air. It was so beautiful, a bittersweet experience, just what I wanted!
Come on, hurt me, pamper me! You are the blade, and I am the fruit waiting to be peeled and its sweetness revealed...
"Ahem," the immortals in the conference room stared in astonishment as Lü Xian coughed twice, stood up, and without explaining to anyone, walked down from the stage, pushed open the door, and left the conference room.
Now, all the immortals in the conference room were dumbfounded. Even Hu Fei stopped reading. This... this is too weird. Why did Immortal Lü leave?
You know, immortals don't need to go to the toilet. Even if this meeting lasted for a hundred years, not a single immortal would need to leave. So, Lu Xian's sudden departure from the meeting room was definitely not to go to the toilet. So what did he go to do? All the immortals were completely baffled.
If a section chief or department head were to leave the meeting without explanation, and Lü Xian were still in charge, even if the security department didn't immediately send someone to drag him back, they would at least deduct his merit points on the spot to maintain discipline. But... Lü Xian ran away on his own, who the hell would dare to interfere?
Even if you have the guts, you don't have the ability!
"Ahem, Lü Xian must have some urgent business to attend to. Let's continue our study." Ke Ke from the Organization and Cadre Section was indeed highly skilled and quick-witted, clearing his throat to remind Hu Fei.
Hu Fei picked up the document, about to read it aloud, when suddenly several crisp slapping sounds came from outside the conference room. The immortals were taken aback. This… it seemed that Immortal Lü had slapped someone outside? Or… had he been slapped? That couldn't be right, could it? Immortal Lü wasn't the kind of immortal who liked to act like a hooligan?
"What are you all thinking about? Keep studying!"
Ke Ke was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging. Damn it, he had suddenly heard that slapping sound and he had the same suspicion. It was really wrong of him! Even if Lü Xian had this hobby, it was impossible for him to suddenly have an attack during a meeting.
There must be another reason, there must be! Perhaps Lü Xian has encountered great danger outside and is in the midst of a fierce battle. But as long as he doesn't make a sound, we can't go out easily. After all, if even Lü Xian can't deal with this guy, who else in the office can?
