”Zhuge Yue?” she whispered as time passed slowly. ”What's wrong?”

”Nothing,” he replied with a calm voice. In the few years that they had not seen each other, the arrogant man had seemed to grow up. An occasional cold look flashed across his eyes, which resembled the vicissitudes of life that he had been through. His voice was peaceful, yet sounded cold. His emotions were indiscernible to other people.

”Xing'er, you have suffered,” the man suddenly said.

Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows in suspicion as she replied, ”What are you saying?”

”Whatever I owe you,” Zhuge Yue smiled, patted her face, and continued, ”I will make it up to you in future.”

”Zhuge Yue, what's wrong with you?”

Chu Qiao was a little nervous as she tugged at Zhuge Yue's sleeve. She looked up and remarked, ”I didn't suffer. I was willing to.”

Zhuge Yue smiled again. He reached out his hand and held her in his embrace, leaning his chin onto her head. He held her without using any strength, as if he was holding a porcelain object. There were some things that he did not say, as he let those thoughts dissipate along with the winds that blew past. He had always thought that he was better than Yan Xun. Only when Chu Qiao was by his side, could she attain real happiness. However, on matters like these, he was no match for Yan Xun. Yan Xun had been a real gentleman over the ten years that they had spent together, yet he only had his selfish desires.

However, what could he do about it? When faced with her, his confidence often evaporated. As his happiness neared, he started to fear more and more. Hence, he wanted it all to himself.

However, after that, he worried even more about his personal gains and losses. He was a decisive man. For matters regarding conquests and riches, he was able to decide and gamble swiftly. Only when faced with her was he unable to do so. Sometimes, he mocked himself for landing himself into this state.

Chu Qiao leaned into his embrace as she continued to repeat, ”It's nothing. I did it willingly.”

He covered her mouth and carried her up as he started to walk towards the cabin.

Chu Qiao exclaimed as the umbrella fell to the ground. The thin raindrops fell onto her face, giving off a cold sensation. She protested with a low, soft voice, ”Put me down! It'll be bad if Meixiang and the rest sees this!”

Zhuge Yue looked down and said in a domineering tone, ”Shut up.”

Chu Qiao frowned and retorted, ”I don't want to!”

Zhuge Yue laughed as he maintained his expression. He smiled but did not make a sound, as he lowered his head and kissed her forcefully. He stood in front of the cabin door and kissed her under the night sky, in the open, all the way until Chu Qiao was panting and felt weak all over her body. He laughed as he looked at her. With a slight arrogance in his voice, he said, ”I have ways to make you shut up.”

Chu Qiao reached out both of her hands to cover her slightly swollen mouth. She looked at him angrily as she continued to protest in silence.

Zhuge Yue laughed again and carried her back to her room. Luckily, it was late in the night. Everyone had slept, and they did not encounter anyone on their way back.

As they reached her room, Chu Qiao jumped off swiftly and adopted a defensive posture as she stared at him. As he unfastened his clothes, she started to blush.

Zhuge Yue smiled and leaned forward as his breath landed on her ear. He whispered, ”Does it still hurt?”

Chu Qiao's face turned even redder. She was always like this. Despite being able to command many troops and kill many enemies, she was helpless when faced with such matters. She behaved like an innocent lady whenever topics like these were mentioned.

Zhuge Yue embraced her from behind as his hand slipped down her stomach. Chu Qiao was shocked as she restrained his hand, putting it back on her warm stomach.

”Oh?” Zhuge Yue asked. ”I'm asking you something. Does it still hurt?”

Chu Qiao was caught off guard again as she shook her head like a frightened rabbit.

Zhuge Yue chuckled as a sinister look flashed across his face. He leaned by her ear and whispered, ”It really doesn't hurt anymore?”

She nodded frantically once again.

”Let's carry on then.”

”Ah?” Chu Qiao exclaimed with her mouth wide open.

Zhuge Yue burst out in laughter as he carried her and put her onto the bed. Chu Qiao did not know what had come over her. What had happened to her martial arts? Her agility? Why was it that whenever he neared, she felt weak all over? She watched on, dazed, as his face became larger in front of her. His pointed nose, thin lips, sinister eyes, fair skin, his smile… all of these features were charming.

She remained motionless as she allowed him to dominate her lips. She started to feel goosebumps that felt like electric shocks. Her teeth were pried open as his tongue entered the gap within. Their kiss turned from gentle to intense in a short period of time. From her initial dreamy state, she tried to welcome his gesture by reciprocating. Her body quivered slightly as her breathing became irregular and faster. She had ultimately succumbed to the other party's seduction as she leaned in his embrace. Her clothes had unknowingly come off, leaving only her undergarments, exposing her long legs and fair arms.

He laughed and wrapped her in a blanket, then kissed her face. He reached out his hand and embraced her, saying in a hoarse voice, ”Alright, get some sleep.”

Chu Qiao was stunned. She asked in a dazed manner, ”Sleep?”
