Chapter 171: Jealous (12)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“See you tomorrow.”
Bai Xianyu bade farewell and looked down the mountain. After some thought, she decided not to take the carriage back to the residence. It was quite troublesome to travel back and forth. In any case, the room was already prepared. She just had to stay.
Over the past few days, the Great Xiangguo Temple’s defense had been very tight. All around, there were guards standing guard. Bai Xianyu asked Bai Li to go to the residence and asked Green Pearl to pick a few clothes to bring over to facilitate the change of clothes. She did not have to wear the plain robe that the temple had specially prepared for devotees when she went out tomorrow.
After dinner, Bai Xianyu asked someone to bring water over. There was a bathroom in this room, but there were no people to serve her. She undressed and hung her bedclothes on an ancient wooden rack at the side. She tested the water temperature and lay in the wooden bucket.
Although she did not feel very tired, immersed in the warm water, Bai Xianyu could not help but feel a sense of fatigue come over her.
After soaking for some time, her eyelids gradually closed and her body gradually slid down. Just as her nose was about to submerge in the water, someone held her shoulders and lifted her up.
When the water reached her collarbone, those hands let go again.
After a while, Bai Xianyu nodded and opened her eyes in confusion.
When she saw her surroundings clearly, she was relieved. She came out of the water and stepped on the ground with her fair and dainty feet, reaching for her bedclothes.
Her gaze paused on the exquisite pink-colored undergarment. She hesitated for a moment and did not wear it. She had sweated today and did not bring anything to change into. It would not be too late to change into it when the Green Pearl came.
Hence, Bai Xianyu put on her white bedclothes and tied the straps on both sides.
The house was brightly lit, and it was already late at night outside. From time to time, there would be the sound of raindrops.
Bai Xianyu yawned. As soon as she left the bathroom, she was grabbed by the waist and pressed against the wall.
She widened her eyes in surprise and wanted to push him away, but her hands were pinned behind her back.
The rain outside the door became heavier, and Bai Xianyu’s whimpers were all swallowed. Xie Xingyun’s slender fingers entered her hair.
Her senses were plundered.
After some time, Xie Xingyun’s kiss became gentle and affectionate.
Bai Xianyu’s vision darkened and she almost thought that she was going to suffocate to death.
Her hair, her forehead, the tip of her nose, her lips, and the cherry-red petals on her neck fell, complementing her skin.
Xie Xingyun kissed her deeply and heavily.
Bai Xianyu only came back to her senses after a long time. Her breathing was still very uneven. When she saw the face of the person in front of her clearly, she was furious and bit his neck.
Not only did Xie Xingyun not frown, his gaze became even more lingering.
She would bite his neck every time. Did she know that she was not intimidating at all? She would only make him want to bully her even more.
In order to exert strength, Bai Xianyu held his face and fixed it before biting him hard.
A neat circle of teeth marks landed on Xie Xingyun’s neck. He lowered his head and said, “I’m sorry.”
When Bai Xianyu saw the circle of blood marks, her anger barely dissipated a little. “Is it useful to apologize? 1 don’t want to forgive you.”
The man was still hugging her. Bai Xianyu’s feet did not touch the ground. They hung in the air, and her jade-like toes were pink and seductive.
When Xie Xingyun heard her words, he hugged her even tighter. His gaze was dark. “He’s from Daqing.”
Bai Xianyu did not understand at first. When she realized that he might be talking about Mo Linyuan, she deliberately went the other way. “What’s wrong with someone from Daqing?”
Xie Xingyun said hoarsely, “Don’t you want to protect your brothers? If you marry into Daqing, who will protect them?”
Bai Xianyu felt her lips go numb. She was still angry that he had suddenly barged in and kissed her. She thought, “There are many people protecting my brother. If 1 marry him, I’ll still be an imperial concubine. Perhaps that person won’t dare to touch them.”
Xie Xingyun felt as if a knife was being twisted in his heart. “You think so?”
“Yes.”
Bai Xianyu kicked his legs hard and adjusted her bedclothes. She bit her lip and said, “Let me down.”
“I can protect them too.”
“I don’t want your protection.”
“If you marry me, I can also protect all of you well.” The scenes from the day kept replaying in Xie Xingyun’s mind. The girl in his arms really wanted to go for the marriage alliance. The way she chased after that man was so familiar; it was like her and him in the past.
“No.”
Bai Xianyu spat out a word and jumped out of his arms. Before she could regain her freedom, he kissed her lips again.
She hammered his hard chest a few times, and the back of her fair hand turned red.
After a long time, the two of them separated while sweating profusely.
Xie Xingyun grabbed her shoulders with both hands and bent down to get close to her red ears. “Don’t marry him.”
Bai Xianyu’s face turned red as she pushed him. “What right do you have?”
“If you go for the marriage alliance, then what about them?” Xie Xingyun repeated and muttered,”… What about them?”
What should he do?
