Chapter 345 Fearless and Reliable
Jiang Zhi was furious, and had cursed Lu Yuan countless times in her heart.
Completely unaware that the Marquis of Wuyi outside had already been dismissed and left by Xie Qi.
When the blankets were lifted and she was finally able to see the light of day again, she let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Before she could say anything, Xie Qi suddenly grabbed her wrist.
She was pinned to the bed, with Xie Qi, disheveled, looking down at her. His peach blossom eyes were filled with lust, as dangerous as a beast lurking in the night.
"Xie Qi, you..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xie Qi showered him with kisses.
He seemed to have been holding back for a long time; his breathing was heavy, carrying a suppressed longing and a sense of loss of control.
With just a slight pressure on the back of her neck, Jiang Zhi involuntarily opened her lips, allowing him to conquer and penetrate her without any resistance.
Her breaths and gasps were drowned out by his mouth.
Because of the excessive movement, Xie Qi felt a dull pain in his back, but he was like a hungry wolf that wouldn't let go once it had caught its prey, biting down hard and refusing to let go.
Jiang Zhi sank into the soft bedding, with Xie Qi's broad and tall body above her, making it impossible to see Jiang Zhi from the outside.
She reached out to push him away, but the difference in strength between men and women is inherent, and Xie Qi, who has practiced martial arts for many years, found Jiang Zhi's push to be like scratching an itch through a boot.
Soon, he pushed her wrists above her head, imprisoning them. His burning hot body was airtight, as if he wanted to melt her into his bones and blood, making her feel like she was burning up.
"Zhizhi, the only person I want to marry in this life is you." Xie Qi whispered breathlessly in her ear, his voice sticky yet extremely solemn.
Jiang Zhi's heart trembled, but having finally gotten a chance to catch her breath, she didn't have time to argue. She just took a deep breath and said, "Xie Qi, let me go first. Your mother will be here soon."
If Lady Wuyi knew that the Marquis of Wuyi had come here, she would surely be worried and come to see him.
If she were to see her and Xie Qi in the same bed, she would be in deep trouble.
Xie Qi's chest heaved, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
He knew, of course, that Jiang Zhi was right.
But Zhizhi, who was beneath him, was looking at him with her lips wet and glistening like cherries coated in syrup, making her irresistible.
He could only kiss her hard again, still wanting more, to calm his restless breathing and finally release his grip on her.
Jiang Zhi quickly got out from under him, and after getting off the bed and tidying her clothes and hanging up the brocade curtains, Lady Wuyi Marquis arrived in a hurry with her entourage.
"Well, has the Marquis discovered that Madam Shen is here with you?" She came in without noticing the undercurrent between the two.
"No," Xie Qi's voice was still hoarse, "If Madam Shen hadn't dodged quickly, Father would have seen us."
Lady Wuyi looked apologetic. "Madam Shen, it was my oversight. The Marquis is usually upright and strong-willed. I thought it would take him several days to calm down. I didn't expect him to come so soon. I'm sorry you were frightened."
“Lady Wuyi, you flatter me,” Jiang Zhi said with a faint smile. “I have already bandaged General Xie’s wounds. You just need to make sure he takes his medicine later.”
Marquis Wuyi looked closely and indeed saw that Xie Qi's wounds on his back had been properly treated.
Just as she felt a sense of relief, she couldn't help but sternly rebuke Xie Qi upon seeing his disheveled appearance, "Look at yourself! What kind of state are you in? After being in the Northern Territory for so long, have you forgotten even the most basic manners of dealing with people?"
Xie Qi raised an eyebrow, casually put on his disheveled clothes, and then said, "Madam Shen promised to come to my house in the next two days to personally apply the medicine for me. I suppose she won't go back on her word?"
"Really?" Lady Wuyi looked at Jiang Zhi with delight. "Then Lady Chen must have had a lot of trouble."
How could she, as the mother, not know what her brat was thinking?
But he had suffered so much from years of military campaigning and fighting, and it was rare for him to meet someone he liked. He wanted to get closer to her, and she really couldn't bear to disappoint him.
Jiang Zhi, feeling trapped, nodded, "Yes, after all, I haven't thanked General Xie for saving my husband. Don't worry about such a small matter."
After leaving the Marquis of Wuyi's residence, Jiang Zhi did not return to the Shen residence, but went straight to the Northern Garrison Command.
When Ye Qi saw Lu Yuan at the Northern Garrison in the morning, he saw that although Lu Yuan still had a cold expression, the murderous aura that had been emanating from him in the past few days had completely disappeared, as if it had been soothed by something.
Ye Qi then realized that he had indeed made the right decision to go to Princess Qinghe.
The eldest brother was immediately appeased, wasn't he?
But before he could be happy for long, he saw Princess Qinghe enter with a cold face and a fierce aura. She walked familiarly to the garrison where her boss was, and didn't even react when he greeted her.
He looks like he's angry.
His heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively followed.
But then, with a "bang," the door slammed shut in front of him. He only had time to see his eldest brother raise his head from the files, his eyes showing surprise.
Ye Qi rubbed his nose, and seeing the cold look on the county princess's pretty face, he couldn't help but feel smug.
The boss is probably not going to get away with this today.
"Huh? What brings you here now?" Lu Yuan saw Jiang Zhi and immediately put down what he was doing, got up and took her hand.
Before he could even touch her, he suddenly saw a blur before his eyes, and Jiang Zhi actually raised her hand and slapped him across the face.
"Lu Yuan, you bastard!"
Lu Yuan didn't even turn his head, only pressed the tip of his tongue against the soft flesh of her cheek, and still held her hand, looking at her and asking, "What happened? Did you hurt your hand?"
Jiang Zhi fumed, "Lu Yuan, what did you do to me last night while I was drunk?"
"You know I was drunk last night too," Lu Yuan said calmly in the face of her questioning. "What did I do?"
"You deliberately got me drunk, took advantage of me, and made me eat, made me eat..." Jiang Zhi stammered, unable to continue.
Lu Yuan looked down at her. "What do you want to eat, hmm? Tell me."
Jiang Zhi couldn't bring herself to say it, so she just cursed "bastard" again, angrily pulled her hand out of his palm, and punched him hard in the chest.
But this only elicited a light laugh from Lu Yuan, "You'll only hurt yourself if you fight like that."
He took the whip from the wall next to him and handed it to her, saying, "If Azhi wants to vent her anger on me, it's better to use a tool."
Jiang Zhi took it. The whip was made of raw cowhide, extremely heavy to the touch, and had barbs embedded in it. It gleamed with a cold, hard glaze under the light.
She hesitated before looking up at him, but saw that his expression was serious and he didn't seem to be joking.
"You said it yourself, so I'm really going to hit you."
"Okay, I promise I won't fight back." Lu Yuan nodded.
Jiang Zhi raised her hand high, as if to lash out with a whip, but Lu Yuan didn't even flinch; his dark, sharp pupils stared unblinkingly at her.
"Never mind." After hesitating for a long time, she finally threw the whip on the ground, pushed Lu Yuan away in frustration, and sat down in his official chair.
Lu Yuan had risked his life for her many times, and his body was covered in scars. How could she possibly hurt him?
He knew exactly what was wrong with her, which is why he was so confident and fearless.
Thinking of this, her face grew even more somber.
