Second Marriage

When the Li Family left, Xiao Youning yawned and heard someone call out Fifth Master.

She stood up swiftly, straightened out her dress and appeared very dignified again. The appearance from before, when she was about to hang herself and vomit blood in front of the house, was nowhere to be found.

Ye Shen came very quickly since he happened to be planning to come over anyway. He didn’t want to be announced while his sister was looking for trouble again.

He had arrived when the little girl threw the white silk. Even though he knew she was faking it, his heart felt unbearable.

Moreover, there was that bright red liquid oozing from her mouth.

“What did you swallow?” His clothes fluttered at his feet as he went to her. He raised his hand and wiped the corner of her lips.

She did not know that she still had a little cinnabar on her lips. She felt embarrassed under his observant eyes. She pulled back and avoided his fingers. “It’s all right, it’s just some cinnabar.”

The face in front of her went cold. While she was used to him putting on airs and ignoring others, it was frightening to look at the indifferent and handsome face at this time.

“I’m fine.” Xiao Youning saw that he seemed to be angry and guiltily tried to explain quickly. “It was wrapped up. I didn’t swallow any when I bit it to spit it out. I’ve already rinsed my mouth…”

She said this with a smile to show that she was really all right.

Although cinnabar was poisonous, a little would not cause any problems.

Ye Shen narrowed his eyes. He looked at her red lips and suddenly grabbed her arm to pull her into the corridor.

Yuan Guo looked away and raised her hand to signal that no one should get close. Fifth Master Ye is angry, and whoever approaches will be unlucky. Jian Yin was standing next to her. It was rare to see Yuan Guo have such a look and a mischievous chuckle.

Yuan Guo was afraid of Wu Ye but she was not afraid of Jian Yin. They were fighting outside again in whispers.

“Fi-fith Master…” Xiao Youning almost stumbled when she was dragged by him. She shouted angrily and in distress from behind him, “Daoist Priest!”

Ye Shen, who was dressed in blue, finally paused. He turned and pushed her against the wall. He leaned over and lowered his head to kiss her hard.

She felt like she was falling from the top of a mountain. And the pressure was making her breathing stagnate as he seized every chance for her to catch her breath.

The kiss was fierce and her heart was beating faster than from the kiss in the carriage.

In Xiao Youning’s world, there was only him. Their entanglement made her feet weak, and she lost her strength to stand. He sensed it. His hand was on the back of her waist, supporting her. He pulled her closer and continued to kiss her.

She felt as if she was drunk. Her breathing was not like her, her body going soft was not like her either. At the last part, even the moan that she could not hold in did not sound like her.

Ye Shen, her robber, regained his senses from her light and uneven gasps. Out of the blue, his heart felt a jolt. The arms around her waist tightened, and his muscles were as taut as stone. He suddenly stopped at this time, and buried his head in the crook of her neck and took a deep breath in.

Xiao Youning leaned against the wall and had to bear the pressure of his weight. Her eyes were hazy and blurry, and she breathed heavily for a while before she said, “M-my feet are weak, I can’t stand.”

Once she said this, she let out a cry. She really could not stand anymore and fell to the ground with him. The fall hurt her butt.

She was so ashamed and annoyed that she hit him on the shoulder with her fist.

The man who lowered his head for a long time finally slowly moved to gaze into the depths of her eyes as if there was a storm in there. Even the corners of her eyes had a touch of charming red, like peach blossoms.

Xiao Youning was shocked. She had never seen such an aroused side of him, and her mouth felt inexplicably dry.

He saw her lips move and then swallow her saliva as if he was a delicious delicacy. He faintly smiled, and the already handsome face became more and more captivating as he made her look straight into his eyes.

“…why? Ning’er, with those eyes, why does it seem like you want to eat me?” His voice was husky and very beautiful. He got close to her ear and stressed every word, “Wait a while. When the Marquis comes back, we’ll get married. Your husband will let you taste the wedding festivities when the time comes.”

The red in Xiao Youning’s face sprang to the point where blood could gush out. The coquettish appearance robbed Ye Shen of his courage to gaze, out of fear that he would not be able to control himself. He wouldn’t be able to wait for that day in the bridal chamber where he would devour her whole!
