Chapter 173: Seduction
Shen Tingyu's breathing was steady as usual, but his heartbeat was like a drum, resounding like thunder.
What she didn't know was that she was actually secretly looking forward to it in her heart.
This wasn't the first time he kissed her.
But this time, she was far from being so upset.
The ambiguous breaths intertwined with each other, and the wet and soft kiss finally fell, like the dense rain in spring, fine and lingering, warm and humid.
Shen Tingyu felt dizzy, her steady breathing was disordered, her fingers quietly clenched the corner of her clothes, and her long eyelashes were like a small fan, gently fanning.
Just when she couldn't help herself and was about to wake up, the wet kiss quickly moved away.
It was no longer the right time for her to open her eyes.
She could only close her eyes and continue pretending to be asleep.
The man's low and sexy chuckle echoed in her ears, and half of her ears were numb.
Did he realize that I was pretending to be asleep? !
Strong arms lifted her up, holding her securely like a princess, carefully avoiding the injury on her shoulder, and jumped down from the roof.
The night was long, Xin Hongying held her and walked slowly in the palace, stepping on the moonlight, and carried Shen Tingyu back to the Stargazing Pavilion.
Shen Tingyu felt like she was being placed on a soft big bed.
A thin quilt covered her body, and her slightly messy hair was pushed aside by her slender fingers.
His dark eyes studied her peaceful sleeping face, and suddenly he noticed that her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her wet red lips were particularly seductive.
Xin Hongying's slender fingers moved slowly along her eyebrows and eyes, tracing them bit by bit through the air, as if she was painting.
The beautiful face, illuminated by the moonlight, could still make his heart beat faster even when the beauty was sleeping. Xin Hongying suddenly felt dry in the mouth and confused.
Shen Tingyu lay in bed, waiting for a long time but did not hear the tyrant's footsteps leaving, but could still hear the sound of his clothes rubbing against each other.
I kept wondering in my mind, what is the tyrant doing?
Xin Hongying was stunned.
Her subtle movements could not deceive anyone. She was awake and had been pretending to be asleep.
Xin Hongying quickly retracted her slender fingers, and thinking of the kiss on the eaves, a guilty expression flashed across her face.
When did she wake up!
Did you know that you kissed her secretly?
The last time he confessed, she ran away without saying anything. He didn't know if it was because she hated him or something else...
This time, he wanted to know what the fairy's attitude towards him was.
I like...
Or disgust...
Still indifferent...
Xin Hongying's eyes darkened, he leaned forward slightly and lowered his head reverently.
"I know you're awake."
Shen Tingyu only felt that the thin red lips quickly brushed against her red lips, and left as soon as they touched, like a gust of wind passing by and landing on her forehead.
Her heart suddenly trembled and she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Your Majesty, you..."
Her pupils shrank again and again, and she unconsciously licked her itchy lips with her tongue.
Shen Tingyu frowned slightly and asked with some doubt.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Xin Hongying saw her actions and was secretly delighted.
She actually... didn't hate him being close to her.
Xin Hongying's eyes held a faint smile, "Fairy, go to bed early."
He pointed to his forehead and said slowly, "This is the goodnight kiss the fairy said. Did I do it right?"
Shen Tingyu’s breath got stuck in his throat.
Goodnight kiss!
She did say that, but she didn't let him do that to her!
Shen Tingyu suddenly sat up from the bed, saying meaningfully: “Your Majesty, you are clearly taking advantage of me.”
Xin Hongying leaned forward slightly, and his handsome face slowly approached.
His eyes were filled with stars, and he looked at her lovingly and tenderly, with a faint smile in his eyes.
"Then the fairy can take advantage of me and borrow my dragon energy to maintain the human form for a longer period of time. The fairy won't lose anything."
He even offered his face, his dark jade eyes were clear. She only needed to move slightly, and he was at the right height for her to kiss him effortlessly.
Shen Tingyu’s face became hotter and hotter, and she felt that something was wrong.
Is he seducing me?!
Isn't this still taking advantage of yourself?
Her fair fingers pushed away the handsome face that was very close to her, and she snorted coldly: "You wish!"
"I need to rest, Your Majesty, please leave now."
She covered her head with the thin quilt, completely covering herself in it.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Xin Hongying's voice was gentle and doting.
"Fairy, take a rest early."
Not until the sound of tiny footsteps completely disappeared did Shen Tingyu open his eyes with a flicker, his eyes slightly bright.
She couldn't sleep at all tonight. She raised her hand and touched her rosy lips, with her bright eyes open, wondering what she was thinking in her heart?
Shen Tingyu suddenly said: “System, you are the Mingjun Cultivation System, do you know how to complete the task?”
"The tyrant's soul-devouring Gu has been cured. He seems so diligent in his government affairs, so he doesn't seem like a tyrant."
"So what's going on with this mission progress value?"
She clicked on the system panel and poked the task progress bar with the word 80% on it.
She really didn't understand.
[Uh... well, this!]
Xiao Qi’s childish voice was hesitant, and Shen Tingyu suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, she narrowed her eyes and said coldly.
"If you have something to say, say it now!"
[Host, you don't know, Xiao Qi actually... just recently transitioned from the internship system to the wise ruler cultivation system...]
[Host, you are the first serious host Xiao Qi has ever taken care of~]
"What!"
Shen Tingyu covered her face silently.
never mind!
┑( ̄Д ̄)┍
This stupid system turned her from a human into a doll.
What could she expect from it!
So Shen Tingyu could only analyze it by herself, but she didn't have much clue, and she scratched her hair in distress.
"The Soul Devouring Gu has been resolved. The problem definitely isn't with the Tyrant..."
"That's the case with the original novel's hero and heroine, but Concubine Yu is missing and is now most likely dead. That leaves only that sentimental fool Xin Mingzhe."
Shen Tingyu suddenly had an epiphany, "Wait!"
How could she forget that besides the Queen Mother, there was another person who was controlling the situation behind the scenes with absolute certainty, and was the only one who could threaten the tyrant now?
"The Regent!"
Shen Tingyu raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, "As long as he is eliminated, no one can threaten the tyrant."
The Queen Mother's funeral was over and she was successfully buried.
Xin Hongying went to court after recovering from a serious illness, and the strange turmoil in the palace came to an end.
What surprised Shen Tingyu was that the Regent, apart from a slight sadness, did not make any moves and acted cautiously, making it impossible for people to find any evidence against him.
He is still the regent.
Bai Feng and Miss Yi Han stayed in the palace to recuperate.
