One hundred and eleven ice releases past grievances

  "What's wrong with you, Xia? Are you ashamed or not?" Liu Xue Lan looked up at him, almost amused by this man who seemed to be having a childish tantrum. Because she found that the man in front of her was like a child, afraid that others would snatch away his toys. This kind of immature and ridiculous behavior really made people want to laugh. She had no idea that this man could also have such speech and actions that left her speechless.

  Isn't he ashamed?

  "Shut up!" Xia Lixuan's face was twisted in anger, his eyes flashing with a fierce red glow as he turned to glare at her, his grip on her arm tightening. "Liu Xuehan, you dare to leave? I'll break your legs! Don't think I won't do it! You said I'd do whatever you wanted, but now you're trying to dump me? Do you still have a conscience?"

  Lose face? For this dead woman, he's already lost all his dignity! Does he still care about losing face or not?

  For her, he made a scene at the temple, for her, he broke off the engagement and got scolded, for her, he drove away all the females around him. But as soon as that old man came, this woman was going to dump him!

  He wouldn't believe her nonsense, this woman has run away countless times, and it's not easy to catch up with her. He sacrificed so much for her, but she just leaves whenever she wants, without ever considering his feelings. I've never seen anyone as heartless as her!

  Liu Xue Lan was suddenly at a loss for words, really being stirred up by his excited emotions. She opened her mouth and the two dimples on her face were especially charming. "My dad is here to take me back home to wait for my marriage, can you not act like a rascal?"

  If it were an ordinary day, Liu Xue would have already argued with him, but at this moment, she couldn't get angry, looking at the person in front of her who was making a fuss like a child, her heart suddenly became complicated, so even her tone of voice softened a lot.

  Xia Lixun didn't rely on her at all. In his opinion, this woman just wanted to get rid of him. Others don't know, but he doesn't know either - what can't this woman do?

  He has nothing now, if even this woman runs away, he will really go crazy.

  No matter what, she can't be allowed to leave!

  He tightened his arms, holding Liu Xuelan in a tight embrace, his chin buried in her neck, and let out a low growl: "So what if this king is shameless? In any case, without this king's permission, you're not allowed to go anywhere! Did you hear that? You're not allowed to go anywhere! Don't even think about taking this king's son away!"

  "......?!" Looking at the shameless, unreasonable and noisy man, Ryu Bo-yong's head was filled with dense black lines. How could the legendary cold and arrogant, proud and self-sufficient Wang De become such a person?

  It was a bit painful being held by him, and Liu Xue Lan couldn't help but want to push him away.

  "Xia's surname, you're choking me to death......cough cough..."

  Xia Li Xun only then realized that his grip was a bit too strong, but how could he dare to let go? However, he also slightly relaxed his arm. His head still buried in her shoulder, he said like a rogue: "Tell the old man to leave quickly, don't let him follow her, do you know?"

  "...Liu Xue Lan almost thought of knocking him out. Lifting her head from his arms, she looked at Liu Bo Yu with a puzzled expression."

  It's been many months since they last met, and the last time at Qing Luan Mountain, she didn't have a chance to reunite with him properly before being taken away by this man. Now it's the same situation again, and she feels both embarrassed and unsure of what to say.

  She knew Lao Liu didn't like her being with this man, now seeing them like this, Lao Liu must be very disappointed.

  It's been more than a month, and Liu Lao seems to have aged a lot, his face is pale, and there are even some white hairs on his temples. Compared to before she left, he now seems to lack the spirit of shaking off troubles, looking particularly heart-wrenching to her.

  Is he like this because of her?

  "Dad..." She involuntarily called out to Liu Boyu in a soft voice. Although she resented him for being too cruel to her mother back then, it was undeniable that he had been genuinely good to her as his daughter.

  Liu Boyu wanted to wash his hands of the whole thing, after all, the man in front of him was too shameless and unscrupulous, he couldn't bear it anymore. But when he heard that long-awaited gentle call, he suddenly froze, looking at Liu Xuehan with some excitement.

  "Lan'er..." His throat was a little choked, his eyes gleaming with excitement, but despite the excitement, he still had to ask, "Lan'er, have you really decided to be with him?"

  To be honest, he really didn't want them to be together. As a father, he knew what she was thinking, so from the beginning he knew that a man like Bong-deok wasn't suitable for her, and never considered them as a couple. He knew that Bong-deok didn't like his daughter, so he never interfered with anything because he knew it wouldn't work out.

  But things often turn out to be unexpected, and Feng De Wang suddenly changed his temper and entangled Lan Er, even occupying Lan Er before they got married. He really couldn't figure out what that man was thinking. What's the benefit of doing this for him?

  Now they even have children. This is something he never thought of, that day on Qing Luan Mountain, seeing Lan Er crying so sadly, he really had the heart to kill people.

  As a father, he hopes that Lian'er can marry someone she likes, but if this person is like Feng De Wang, he really worries and doesn't feel at ease. Can such a man be controlled by Lian'er?

  Lan'er has always been strong and competitive, and Feng De Wang is notorious for being arrogant and unruly. With these two together, how can they have a good life?

  The scene in front of him once again overturned his heart, the man in front of him who was being unreasonable and making a fuss like a child, was he really that proud and arrogant man?

  And it's clear that Ling Er's heart is still with him, and she has no defense against such a man. Is this result good or bad?

  Liu Xue Lan was asked and felt a bit embarrassed. At first, she had said in front of Old Man Liu that she would not be with this man again, but now...

  In her moment of silence, she distinctly felt a man's stiffness, even the force of his arm.

  She didn't want to tell Lao Liu her answer in front of this man, she felt embarrassed, not that she couldn't say it out loud, but she really didn't want to see the triumphant look on his face. Right, if he knew her answer, he would definitely be insufferably smug.

  Liu Boyu's eyes were expectantly fixed on her, while a certain rogue-like man was also quietly awaiting her response. He wanted to hear her say with her own mouth that she was willing to be with him...

  Xia Li Xun's heart was already in his throat, seeing the woman hesitate for half a day over such a trivial matter, he had endured and endured again to prevent himself from speaking out in anger. He slightly pushed her away, looking at the woman's entangled expression, his heart suddenly tightened, and a deep gaze flashed with a hint of pain.

  He has done so much, yet she still won't forgive him?

  Suddenly, he let go of his arm and suddenly got up and ran out of the palace before Liu Xue Lan could react.

  Liu Xue Lan sat dazed on the soft couch, her mind constantly replaying the man's eyes that were suddenly filled with resentment and pain before he left, as well as his slightly disheveled back.

  "......?!" Is he angry? Didn't she say anything good?!

  Ryūya Yanagi was also somewhat taken aback. This man is indeed unpredictable!

  Just now he was yelling at him and wouldn't let him snatch his woman, but in the blink of an eye, how did he end up running away with his hands up?

  He came back to his senses, walked over, sat down on the soft couch, raised his hand and gently stroked the top of Liu Xue Lan's head, speaking to his daughter in a warm tone for the first time.

  "Lan'er, have you made up your mind? Are you really going to marry him? Don't you worry that he might...?" The man seems to care about Lan'er now, but what about in the future? "You must think carefully, if you regret it now, there's still time, the Emperor has not yet issued a decree, and as your father, I can also find a way for you to avoid him."

  As he patted her head, Liu Xuelan inexplicably felt a sourness in her nose.

  She raised her eyes, and there was a glint of tears in them. "Lao Liu said he won't want any other woman again, do you think I should believe him?"

  At this, Liu Boyu was taken aback. "Did he really say that?"

  "En." Liu Xuelan replied softly, "He himself said that he would be with me for a lifetime, as a couple."

  "......?!". Liu Boyu was somewhat incredulous.

  Liu Xuelan touched her own belly: "I don't really believe he can do it, but I couldn't find a reason to refuse. Can't let the child be born without a father, right? Do you want my child to follow in my footsteps and become a little beggar?"

  It can be heard that she still has a deep resentment towards herself, and Li Bo Yu's eyes flashed with a hint of sadness. He put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean on him, patting her back as he apologized: "The things that happened in the past were my fault as your father, making you suffer so much... Lan Er, even if he doesn't want you two, I will take responsibility for raising you both, so... don't worry about it, okay?"

  Liu Xue Lan bit her lip and fell silent. She also knew that Old Man Liu was making amends to her, those years she had been taking advantage of his desire to make amends for his guilty conscience, being reckless and arrogant, and not even putting him in her eyes.

  Now looking back on those past events, she thinks that she was quite reckless when she was young. Otherwise, she wouldn't have to make a fool of herself for the sake of a man today. She regrets her impulsiveness at the time and also regrets not cherishing the kindness that Lao Liu had shown her...

  The father and daughter spoke so calmly for the first time, revealing their inner hearts to each other for the first time, even if it was just silence, but filled with many indescribable warmth.

  After a long time, Liu Xue Lan lifted her head from her father's shoulder: "I may not be able to go back with you."

  The way that man left made her heart tremble with worry, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy about what he might do next.

  Liu Boyu pressed his lips tightly and said after a long while: "If he treats you badly, remember to come back and tell your father."

  About her leaving without saying goodbye, Liu Boyu still had some worries in his heart, but he also knew it wasn't her fault, that man was too much. He just hoped that in the future if she had anything on her mind, she wouldn't keep it to herself and would tell him, as her father.

  Liu Xue Lan glared at him with a bad temper: "You just think he's treating me badly? Can't you think of something good for once?"

  Liu Boyu furrowed his brow and suddenly slapped her forehead: "Isn't your father also preparing a way out for you? You heartless thing, aren't you satisfied unless you've driven your father to death?"

  Liu Xuelan rubbed her temples with a scowl. In a place where Liu Boyu couldn't see, her eyes were red and her nose was sour, and a tear quietly rolled down from the corner of her eye.

  Liu Boyu reluctantly went home. He also knew that he had never been able to intervene in the affairs of these two young people.

  He no longer cared about the formalities, as long as these two could live a down-to-earth life, he was grateful. Whatever else they wanted to do was none of his business.

  Liu Xuelan asked around, but no one saw the man's shadow, and she didn't know where he went. Helpless, she found Bai Xinzhi in Changping Hall, wanting to leave the palace with them.

  On the way back in the carriage, Bai Xinzhen asked her with great puzzlement: "You two were fine before, how did you suddenly fall out?"

  When will these two people finally calm down?

  Liu Xuelan's face was awkward. "I don't know what he's going crazy about either? He's always yelling and shouting, I didn't provoke him, he just ran over here out of nowhere."

  Bai Xin could only sigh for the two of them.

  Yin Du stopped the carriage at the entrance of the Feng De Wang Fu, and Bai Xin Zhi looked at the woman who was about to get off the carriage with some unease. "Why don't you come back to the Cheng Wang Fu with us first? Who knows if that guy has returned or not, and you're alone there with no one to accompany you. It's better to come back with us, maybe he'll calm down and come pick you up."

  Liu Xue Lan shook her head and looked at her gratefully: "No, I'll go take a look. You also know that person's temper, really don't know what he will do."

  Bai Xin had no choice but to let Xue Ying support her as she carefully got down from the carriage and sent her into the gate, then a group of people drove towards the direction of Cheng Wang Fu.

  She no longer worries about these two separating, she just worries about the child in Xueran's belly.

  This daily hustle and bustle is ultimately not a good thing.

  She didn't have much time to ask about their affairs, after all, the mansion was going to hold a wedding soon, and as the mistress, she still had to ask about the two people who were about to get married. Especially Blood Shadow, another troublesome maid.

  Moreover, she can't go out every day, and she doesn't have the power to ask about things in the Wangfu of Fengde, so some things can only rely on Xueran herself. She really has a willing heart but lacks the strength...

  That day, Auntie Gong also told her that pregnant women should not casually jump over doors, as this would bring bad luck to the host family, especially when she was also pregnant, and said it would let the other child take away the good fortune of her own child.

  She just found it amusing. After all, in modern society, everyone can visit relatives and friends casually, isn't that also nothing?

  To be realistic, these elaborate etiquette are just a kind of restriction on ancient women.

  She was glad she was the kind of person who could sit still, if not, these ancient days would be really hard to get through. If you weren't suffocated to death, you'd be driven mad...

  "What are you thinking about?" Seeing her dazed expression, scattered eyes, Yan Mo couldn't help but pull her into his lap and ask in her ear.

  Bai Xin came back to her senses and realized she had been thinking too far ahead.

  "I didn't think of anything, I just feel being a woman is too boring." She smiled mockingly.

  "......" She raised an eyebrow and twitched the corner of her mouth. What was this woman thinking now?

  Bai Xin didn't bother explaining that much. Suddenly turning to Yin Du, who was driving the horse carriage, he asked: "Yin Du, how's your preparation for the wedding going?"

  Yin Du stared at the road ahead while using his peripheral vision to observe the woman's reaction beside him.

  "Your Highness, preparations are almost complete."

  Xue Ying sat beside him, not even turning her head, as if the man's words had nothing to do with her. Yin Du couldn't help but sigh inwardly. When would this woman ever have a different reaction towards him?

  The horse carriage arrived at Cheng Wang Fu. Bai Xincheng had just been lifted down from the carriage by Mo Yu when he saw Butler Zhou hurrying out to greet them.

  "Your Highness, Your Majesty, you're back."

  Seeing Zhou Bo's face didn't look good, Yan Mo narrowed his eyes and asked: "Is something wrong in the mansion?"

  Zhou Bo hastily nodded: "Your Highness, it's like this. Just now a woman claiming to be 'Wú Míng' said she was friends with the princess and insisted on seeing her. I told her you had entered the palace, but she refused to leave, fearing she would cause trouble at the gate. With no other choice, I let her into the manor and had someone keep an eye on her."

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo and Bai Xin both furrowed their brows at the same time, exchanging a glance. A hint of confusion appeared in both of their eyes.

  Bai Xingran didn't have much contact with Wu Niang, but he also knew that Wu Niang wouldn't easily show her face, especially during the day. Had something happened at Meiren Village?

  "Take her to the main courtyard." Yan Mo Yu instructed Zhou Bo in a low voice.

  "Yes." Seeing his own king's face suddenly turn heavy, Zhou Bo didn't dare hesitate and hastily retreated through the large gate.

  It's naturally not a good place to talk outside, so the couple didn't say a word and tacitly hurried towards the house.

  ……

  Inside the study room

  The girl knelt on the ground, today she may have deliberately avoided being recognized, removing her delicate and charming makeup, wearing simple clothes, losing that bit of worldly flavor, adding a few more serious ones.

  "Young master and mistress, I have come to apologize for not being able to accomplish anything without your daughter."

  Something did happen in the Mei Ren Zhuang last night. The guards, Jin Zi Ya and Xiao Yun, were found dead in their room under mysterious circumstances. However, Jin Zi Ya's body was nowhere to be found, while Xiao Yun's was.

  If they can rescue Jinziya, it means the other party must know Jinziya's identity. In that case, if Jinziya returns to the country, they will definitely find ways to retaliate against Meiren Zhuang. But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that if someone discovers the young master's identity, won't the young master also get into trouble?

  After listening to Wu Niang's account, Yan Mo Yu and Bai Xin Ran both fell silent. Jin Zi Ya was rescued, and they naturally understood the interests involved. However, what they couldn't figure out was who exactly had rescued him.

  Logically, in the capital of Shu Xia Kingdom, Jinziya had no other friends except for Princess Jinyi. And Princess Jinyi should not have known that Jinziya was captured by them, if she did, she would have probably asked for her back a long time ago.

  Connecting it with what happened at the White House two days ago, no matter how they thought about it, the couple couldn't relax their brows.

  "None of you, get up. This isn't your fault either, it's likely that someone has already set their sights on us. Since the matter has already occurred, blaming you is useless. What's most important now is to heighten our vigilance and ideally find out who is secretly causing trouble." Bai Xintong said seriously.

  Yan Mo had been pursing his lips all along, without saying a word, but it was clear that he agreed with his wife's words.

  The maid's face was filled with regret and self-blame: "Young Master, Young Mistress, it was I who was careless and brought about such big trouble."

  Those two women should have been killed directly at the beginning, and there would be no such thing happening today. Now that Jinziya is gone, it's undoubtedly a disaster. What she fears most now is that something unexpected happens to the young master and the young mistress, not to mention that the young mistress is pregnant. It's unknown who has such a big nerve to make trouble in Meiren Manor, and still do it so quietly.

  Just thinking about it makes her worry for the young master and his wife.

  So she hurriedly rushed to Cheng Wang Fu before it got dark today.

  "Nothing, you go back first, we have a plan in mind." Yan Mo's soft voice was calm and peaceful, but his eyes had an inexplicable doubt that couldn't be dispelled.

  The couple didn't seem to have any intention of blaming or punishing her. The girl got up, but with a self-reproachful face, as if she had many things to say.

  He glanced at her lightly and opened his mouth: "As you said, it's better to be careful for a while. Also, after today, the Beautiful Woman's Villa will not accept new people. After you go back, secretly investigate the new people who have entered the villa in the past two months. If there is anything unusual, report back immediately."

  The nun listened seriously, nodded solemnly and heavily: "Yes, young master, the nun knows what to do."

  She had also guessed that there was a traitor within the Mei Ren Zhuang, but because she didn't have any evidence, she wasn't willing to admit it. Now that the young master has brought it up, she knows that Mei Ren Zhuang needs to be thoroughly cleaned up.

  After Wu Nang left, Bai Xin leaned her elbow on the table, propping up her chin and suddenly let out a sigh.

  "I really don't know who is behind the scenes, damn it, can't even have a few days of peace. If sister finds out who is against us, she will definitely make him a human specimen."

  Recently immersed in the good life he gave her, she almost forgot that this society is actually very cruel and cold-blooded. If you want to live a safe life, you really can't have any softness or kindness in your heart.

  She took Jinzi Ya and Xiao Yun to the Beautiful Woman's Villa, she didn't intend to kill these two women. She just wanted to teach them a lesson, let them suffer a bit and be disciplined, according to Wu Niang, there was a kind of medicine in the Beautiful Woman's Villa that was left by Beiyuan Wang, which could erase people's memories. At that time, she decided to spare their lives, torture them enough, and then 'brainwash' them before sending them back. After all, Jinzi Ya was a foreign princess, if something happened to her in Shuxia Kingdom, it would also bring trouble to them.

  Who would have thought that something like this would happen. She really shouldn't have, she shouldn't have thought things were too good to be true.

  Now that woman is gone. It's really unknown what kind of things will happen with that woman's temperament.

  Seeing her with a gloomy expression, Yan Mo's eyes sank slightly, and he raised his hand to grasp the hand on her chin.

  "Don't think wildly, things are not as serious as you thought."

  Bai Xin disbelieved his words. "As they say, a visible spear is easy to dodge but an invisible arrow is hard to guard against. Don't you worry at all?"

  Yan Mo raised an eyebrow: "Even if you're worried, this is something a husband should worry about, why are you interfering so much?"

  Bai Xin looked at him with disapproval: "You're shouldering everything alone, don't tell me you also think of me as a useless person?"

  He let out a sigh, pulled her onto his lap, stroked her soft cheek with his hand, stared at her belly, and suddenly smiled: "Who said the lady was useless? At least she can have children."

  His face had a relaxed smile, bright and dazzling, making Bai Xincheng unable to help but become infatuated. But she was very clear that this man was intentionally diverting the topic.

  Indeed, many things she can't get involved in because the man doesn't agree. Moreover, now they are all blind cases, and no clues or leads can be found, so even if she wants to intervene, there is no way for her to do so.

  She touched her belly, actually she was also looking forward to having a child and hoped that there would be no worries around her so that she could have a peaceful pregnancy. Both of them grew up in an unusual environment and family, but they both hoped to have a child to make this house more like a home. They wanted to experience the paternal and maternal love that they had never received before on their own children, and see what it was like.

  He knew he didn't want to worry himself, just wanted her to be at ease waiting for childbirth. Bai Xindye also stopped mentioning those annoying things and followed his intentions as an obedient pregnant woman. She changed the subject suddenly and asked: "Mo Yu, what do you think our child will be named after birth?"

  She had thought about this problem for a long time, but just didn't say it out loud.

  Yan Mo was silent for a moment, then suddenly pinched her nose and said in an ill-tempered tone: "Of course I'll take my husband's surname, what else could I do, take your surname?"

  Bai Xin's face turned red with anger: "You're deliberately distorting my meaning. Would the Emperor agree to let the child take the surname Yan?"

  His Majesty's intention was to change my surname, but I didn't agree. Since he wasn't willing to acknowledge me back then, now I won't follow his wishes either. Although the King of Beiyuan is not my biological father, he took good care of my mother and allowed me to be born safely, this kindness, my mother cannot repay, so I should repay him myself.

  Bai Xin nodded in agreement with his words. When Beiyuan Wang and her mother-in-law passed away, the Emperor didn't have the courage to acknowledge him. Now that he's come to recognize his identity, even if it's out of a desire to make amends, it will still leave people with resentment. Moreover, Beiyuan Wang sacrificed his own happiness for this mother-son pair, resulting in him not having any descendants of his own. To let him change his surname now would be utterly unkind and unjust.

  She also thinks it's best for the child to have the surname Yan.

  Being a prince of a different surname is easier than being an imperial son or grandson. Isn't there less pressure?

  Look at King Pongdeok and the former crown prince, it's clear how twisted they are...

  The couple decided on their child's surname like this, but little did they know that the day would bring a lively dispute that would give them a headache...

  Fengde Wangfu

  Liu Xuelan returned to her room and saw Luo Ming pacing back and forth in front of the door, his face filled with worry for some unknown reason.

  When he saw her return, Luo Ming suddenly exclaimed in an excited tone: "Miss Liu."

  Liu Xue Lan looked at him with some confusion, not understanding why he was so excited.

  "Is Luo waiting for me?"

  "Miss Liu, you're back." Luo Ming suddenly became excited, changing from his previous worried expression. "The prince just returned and for some reason he's furious, smashing everything in the house. Miss Liu, please hurry and go see the prince."

  He had never seen Wang Ye get so angry before, and it was completely unexpected, almost scaring them to death.

  Liu Xuelan furrowed her brow and pointed at the door: "Is he inside?"

  "Mmm." Luo Ming nodded vigorously.

  When she heard he was back, Liu Xuelan secretly let out a sigh of relief.

  She skirted around Luo Ming and walked to the door of the house. As she pushed open the door, she was almost startled by the mess inside.

  The room was in a state of complete chaos, with tables, chairs, and stools all missing legs or arms. The valuable vases, teapots, and incense burners were all lying on the floor in disarray, not one of them intact, some shattered, others cracked. The calligraphy and paintings on the walls had been torn to shreds, as had the delicate curtains. Throughout the entire room, everything except for the intricately carved sandalwood bed had been utterly destroyed, with not a single item remaining intact.

  She turned around and closed the door under Luo Ming's curious gaze, then stepped aside to avoid the clutter on the floor and walked quietly towards the big bed.

  On the bed, the quilt was lifted, bulging, wrapped around a sturdy and long body.

  Liu Xue Lan's mouth twitched. Suddenly, she felt that the scene at this moment was both infuriating and laughable. How foolish could this man be today? He had always been like a child, and now, with his head covered in a quilt, looking angry, he looked even more childish, making her want to laugh.

  She walked over and sat down on the edge of the bed, pulling at the quilt.

  It just didn't pull.

  "My surname is Xia, I'm back." She said with a smile.

  Seeing him unmoved, she let out a long sigh and said: "Since you don't want me to come back that much, then I'll just leave."

  After she finished speaking, she pretended to get up.

  At this moment, the motionless quilt was suddenly lifted, and the man quickly stretched out his hand to pull her directly onto the bed.

  Although his movements seemed a bit rough, Liu Xuelan still noticed his carefulness. Looking at that black face like the bottom of a pot, she suddenly showed two rows of white fine teeth, and the dimples on her cheeks were deep and charming, with big round eyes full of smile.

  "Dead woman, aren't you supposed to be gone? What are you coming back for?" The man's face turned even redder with rage as he yelled at her, who was still smiling.

  Liu Xue Lan pouted and made a gesture to remove his hand from her waist: "Since you don't want me back, then I'll leave."

  "How dare you!" The man's face turned dark, he suddenly flipped over and pressed her under his body, roaring. "Liu Xue Lan, I really want to strangle you to death!"

  It's rare, Liu Xue Lan didn't show any anger at all, looking at his dark face made her want to laugh more and more. "Then go ahead and pinch me to death, so I can reincarnate early and find a better man next life, definitely won't want someone like you who flips out at every turn."

  "You!" Xia Lixun was so angry he almost spat blood.

  Under his pressure, Liu Xue Lan clearly felt his heaving chest, but in the next instant, the dark face hanging above suddenly pressed down and fiercely covered her mouth.

  For the first time, she didn't think of pushing him away, but instead raised her hands and wrapped them tightly around his neck.

  Her action made a certain man suddenly stiffen, and the one pressed against her mouth didn't move either. Those fiery black eyes were filled with astonishment, staring unblinkingly at her sparkling big eyes.

  Under his gaze, Liu Xue Lan felt her face start to burn and she lowered her eyelids, not daring to look at him again, but the arm wrapped around his neck tightened.

  "Lan Er?" At this moment, Xia Li Xun felt his heart beating extremely violently. As if he didn't believe she would take the initiative to be good to him, he released her lips and gazed at her with scorching eyes, not missing a single expression on her face.

  "Hmm." Liu Xuelan softly responded with a single word.

  Xia Li Xun was shocked, and he almost didn't dare to believe her reaction. Mainly because this woman's before-and-after difference was too great, if it weren't for the fact that they had known each other for a long time, he could have told it was her even with his eyes closed, at this moment he really suspected that someone had replaced her.

  "Uh——" Half a sound, the man on her body didn't move, Liu Xue Lan was about to push him away, but as soon as she opened her eyes, her slightly parted red lips were blocked by him again.

  His excitement, his agitation were all embodied in this kiss, Liu Xue Lan tried her best to respond to him, it was their most unresistant intimate contact for a long time.

  It wasn't until she felt the man's hands were irregular that she came back to her senses from her bewildered passion and grabbed his hands.

  "I'm hungry, I haven't eaten anything since morning." She knew what he wanted to do, but she still didn't want to. Accepting him was one thing, without a proper and respectable status, she still minded a lot.

  Xia Lixuan lifted her head from his neck, her deep eyes dyed with intense desire, as if there was a whirlpool hidden within, and she couldn't help but be drawn in. "I've been starving for twenty years, can't you just let me satisfy my craving?"

  His hoarse voice was in her ear, accompanied by his scorching breath, Liu Xue Lan couldn't help but tremble. Especially when she felt his change, her cheeks flushed red, as if congested, and she didn't dare to look at him with her eyes closed.

  "You're a Xias, you want to keep going? Believe me or not, I'll turn against you immediately?" This man couldn't give her any leeway, otherwise she would be the one to suffer. That's the experience she had summed up.

  Upon hearing this, Xia Lixuan's face turned even darker. Holding her enticingly red cheeks, he gritted his teeth viciously: "If you won't let me touch you, then I'll kiss you to my heart's content..."

  After finishing speaking, he really pounced on Liu Xue Lan's lips like a wolf.

  In Xia Lixun's heart, there seemed to be no more pitiful man than him. In the past, he was affected by this woman and didn't even have the chance to touch a woman. Now that he had the opportunity, he still couldn't touch her. How many men in this world were as miserable as him?

  So he decided to bide his time and wait for the right moment, after thoroughly getting his hands on this woman, he would make her pay back all his losses at once.

  After a long time of kissing, when a certain man finally felt satisfied, Liu Xue Lan only felt that her mouth was almost numb.

  She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach and hurriedly pushed him away, crawling to the edge of the bed to dry retch twice.

  Xia Li Xun's face turned dark again, and the good mood that had just been satisfied suddenly disappeared. He hastily stretched out his hand to pat her back a few times, looking at her painful expression.

  "Can you not use so much force next time, it's unbearable." Wiping the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, Liu Xue Lan made a somewhat dissatisfied demand of him.

  "......?! Xia Lixun gritted his teeth in anger. Dead woman, untouchable, can't even get close to her?

  Looking at her suddenly pale face, he didn't dare to shout out the dissatisfied words that had reached his mouth.

  He picked her up and put her on his lap, somewhat reluctantly wiping away the clear liquid from the corner of her mouth.

  As for the intimacy between the two of them, Liu Xue Lan was still a bit unaccustomed to it. She wanted to move her body away from him, but he held her even tighter.

  "Don't move!" the man ordered somewhat impatiently.

  Liu Xuelan hung her head low, unsure of where to put her hands and feet.

  After a moment of silence, she suddenly lifted her head and said to him in a serious tone: "Can you be nicer to Old Man Liu from now on?"

  "Impossible!" The man's tone was clearly somewhat vicious. This dead woman, that dead old man had abandoned her and let her suffer for so many years, yet she still helped that dead old man speak.

  Liu Xue Lan's face suddenly turned red with anger: "You, surname Xia, don't be too excessive! Have you ever seen a son-in-law yelling and scolding his father-in-law like this? Are you or are you not willing to marry me? If you're not willing, just say it straight out, no need to vent your anger on others."

  "......" Xia Liwen almost wanted to hit someone. This dead woman was too ignorant, he was helping her avenge that dead old man, couldn't she see that?

  He originally wanted to scold her severely, but thinking that she actually came back obediently today, he decided not to confront her for the time being.

  "Alright, stop acting like a shrew all day. I, the king, won't bother with other people's affairs. Just behave yourself and give birth to my son, and I'll grant you anything you want."

  For him always mentioning his son, Liu Xue Lan was speechless. Shameless, doesn't he know to say something pleasant? Those who don't know would think that he's being nice to her for the sake of his son.

  After several months, the two finally got along peacefully for the first time. The messy and broken things in the house somewhat ruined the atmosphere, but fortunately, neither of them was paying attention to their surroundings...

  Heir to the Imperial Palace

  At night, under the bright moonlight, a figure once again climbed into the window of Xue Ying.

  Yin Du originally thought that a certain woman would go to bed early, after all she still had to get up early. But who knew that after crawling through the window, he found out that the woman was not asleep yet. Suddenly, he stood awkwardly by the window, unsure whether he should enter or retreat.

  He usually sneaked in quietly, but now the house was brightly lit, making him feel a bit out of place.

  For the person who sneaked into his own room in the middle of the night, Blood Shadow didn't even lift an eyebrow, sitting cross-legged on the bed, facing the window, holding a black leather book with both hands, his gaze fixed on the book, focused and serious, as if he hadn't noticed that someone had entered the room.

  Yin Du's mouth twitched slightly, feeling somewhat disheartened and lost about his own lack of presence.

  Watching the woman sitting still and gazing intently at something with a serious expression, he couldn't bear to leave and instead curiously walked over.

  The woman still didn't look up at him.

  He puckered up his mouth and familiarly took off his boots and climbed onto the bed to sit beside her.

  He naturally put his arm around her shoulder, looked down to see what book she was reading that could make her so serious and focused, only to find that the scene before his eyes was one of 'fairies fighting'.
