"Nothing much, I just want to kiss you."
Xie Lingqin hugged Yuwen Yao tightly, her hands draped over his smooth neck, her eyes, moistened by warm water, looked at him with a charming smile, and she tiptoed to kiss his thin, slightly pursed lips.
His breath was warm and intense, but in an instant, he took the initiative and kissed her lips directly, "Qin'er, I love you..."
He held her tightly, as if trying to meld her into his very being, etching her into his very being until he vomited blood. Every breath he took was an endless sigh, a silent lament, an endless sense of loss, and an endless comfort.
"Yuwen Yao, I love you so much too, I love you so much..."
Whispers were swallowed, and an intimate kiss lingered in the warmth of the air.
The girl's soaked body pressed tightly against Yuwen Yao, a surge of heat flowing down from her heart, wanting him to have more and more.
What kind of love would make a man tolerate something like this?
If it weren't for her wishes, he wouldn't just not care, but would feel sorry for her.
I feel sorry for you.
His large hands roamed over her body, he swallowed her every breath, until he was about to break through her defenses and lose control. Only then did Yuwen Yao pull back slightly, panting, his dark eyes fixed on her. "You've had a hard day. Take a bath, come out and eat something. Don't tire yourself out any further."
Are you tired?
Xie Lingqin's lips, rosy from the kiss, curved into a smile, a radiant beauty gracing her brows and eyes. She leaned closer to him, pulling his neck down with both hands until her breath touched his nose, her breath sweet and gentle. "I'm not tired."
"you……"
"I was lying to you."
Xie Lingqin suddenly laughed, her voice clear and melodious, like a string of pearls falling onto a plate.
Yuwen Yao was incredibly clever; he saw right through her in a single sentence. In that instant, his eyes held a mixture of surprise and lingering fear as he pulled Xie Lingqin into his arms. "Thank you for sparing me the guilt I will carry for the rest of my life."
"Who told you to have such a dark face back then, and those eyes of yours were so intimidating?"
“When I saw that your sleeves were missing and your lips were red and swollen, I knew that Xu Yiran must have bullied you. But when he bullied you, you stood in front of him.”
"Stand in front of him..."
Xie Lingqin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "No, he injured his waist. I was stopping the bleeding when you arrived."
Xie Lingqin said, feeling incredibly relieved as she spoke. So that's how it was…
He angrily threw her into the pool because of this.
"But you're too naive. You're such a shrewd person. I told you it happened, and you immediately believed it." Xie Lingqin said reproachfully.
"I..." Yuwen Yao wanted to explain something, but after a moment, a hint of understanding appeared on his face. There was no need to at this moment. The woman in front of him had the ability to make him both happy and worried.
"Xie Lingqin, let's not misunderstand each other anymore, okay? Let's be honest with each other, okay?" Yuwen Yao had never felt such a surge of emotions in his more than twenty years. Overjoyed, he wept. At this moment, he wished he could meld Xie Lingqin into his very bones, making them one and never to be separated again.
"Yu Wenyao..."
Xie Lingqin gently raised her hand and drew circles on Yuwen Yao's back. "However, it was really Xu Yiran who saved me today. He didn't take advantage of me; he used his internal energy to help me break down the effects of the medicine. Otherwise, it really would have been..."
"Don't say it."
Yuwen Yao sealed his lips with his own, covering those swollen and moist lips, "As long as it's you, I'll take it no matter what."
"Then, you want it."
Xie Lingqin gently stuck out her tongue to tease his lips, then softly leaned into his arms.
The action, the posture, the emotion—all so clear.
"Qin'er—"
Yuwen Yao murmured, his Adam's apple bobbing, but he abruptly moved his lips away and instead held her tightly in his arms, saying, "You're so good."
ah?
"You've been through so much, you need to rest. How can I let you get tired?"
That sounds so understanding, but so, was she prepared to do *that* and even took the initiative, only to be rejected by him?
"Yuwen Yao, you won't have such a good chance next time."
Xie Lingqin put her hand down in frustration.
Hearing Xie Lingqin's emotions, Yuwen Yao chuckled softly, his joyful laughter resonating in his chest. "Qing'er, I know you're willing, I know you have me in your heart, I know you trust me so much, I know you're willing to give yourself to me completely. I've been moved for ten years. Thank you for loving me. Even if the road ahead is thorny, I will not let go."
Xie Lingqin felt a sweet warmth in her heart at these words, and after a moment, she smiled and said, "Then, I'll take a bath. Prepare my clothes, and..."
"Yuwen An, do as you please," Yuwen Yao said.
"How I deal with him is irrelevant. He broke the bracelet that Her Majesty the Empress gave me. What kind of price will that be?" Xie Lingqin shook her wrist, her eyes revealing no goodwill whatsoever.
Yuwen Yao smiled slightly.
"However, besides Yuwen An, there is another person."
...
Half an hour later, Xie Lingqin came out after bathing, her hair flowing freely. The wound on her arm had already been treated with medicine and bandaged.
She is as beautiful as jade, and even more so as to be like a poem or a painting.
"Come on, have some millet porridge and go to bed early."
Xie Lingqin shook her head, "Where are Ning Yi and Zihe?"
A deep, subtle glint flashed in Yuwen Yao's eyes. "Judging from the traces at the time, he must have been captured by Yuwen Xian."
Xie Lingqin was slightly taken aback, then understood. Although she had told Ning Yi and Zihe to leave, given Zihe's loyalty to her, if he knew she had been drugged, he would have risked his life to save her.
At that time, both Zihe and Ningyi were injured.
"How do you plan to get Yuwen Xian to hand over the person?"
Xie Lingqin's eyes darkened.
