Chapter 7, Let Her Make an Appearance

Why does he ride in a sedan chair while she walks?

Behind her, the man could barely conceal the smoldering fire hidden deep within his dark eyes, ignited by her deliberate actions, yet his tense body ultimately did not take a step forward

That plate of roasted duck is so fragrant

Recalling the scene where she was pressed down by him to engage in 'exercise', she suddenly turned around, her hands provocatively cradling her chest as she shook them towards the man

I need to change my clothes, please step aside, otherwise don't blame me for any consequences.

On the round table, there was a bowl of soup porridge that was rich in color, aroma, and flavor. She picked it up and poured it directly into her mouth, gulping it down in a few swallows.

In someone else's territory, under the immense pressure from the other party's numerous subordinates, she felt that she should be pragmatic and endure a little longer

She is a woman, a woman

Watching that indecent action, it was as if she were a female thug; the cold corners of the man's taut face twitched sharply.

Any guard outside with a weapon could easily take her life. Not to mention such a large, beast-like master.

Ye Xiaonuan followed closely, gasping for breath with her mouth wide open

Ye Xiaonuan was initially puzzled, then she was taken aback, and finally, she was filled with joy

Even the presence of a handsome stranger in the room did not capture my attention.

You have a quarter of an hour to get ready; otherwise, your starvation is of no concern to this king

With tears streaming down my face, I gaze up at the sky, then look ahead at the carriage with immense resentment

She initially thought that as long as she could get out, there would surely be an opportunity to escape. Little did she know that merely stepping outside would result in seven or eight armed guards following her.

A man's gaze fell upon her, showing no intention of leaving: "What part of you have I not seen, my king?"

Cough cough cough

Want to escape? Unless you have no life!

If she were to know at this moment that running several streets behind a certain gentleman in the capital today could lead to such a "colorful" life in the future, she would probably be desperate to extract the very innards of that gentleman.

"Go ahead." With his usual indifferent expression, Long Li raised his resolute chin slightly, signaling him to go first. Then, he glanced back and said coldly, "Keep up."

She quickly took down the clothes from the wooden rack, her expression somewhat embarrassed

Hey, hey, hey! Slow down, slow down!" Watching the magnificent four-person sedan chair rushing ahead, Ye Xiaonuan clutched her chest, her forehead covered in sweat, breathlessly calling out.

You bastard, stinky man

Ye Xiaonuan truly felt as if she was about to faint from hunger. Upon hearing his words, she quickly turned over and got out of bed, not even bothering to put on her shoes, and hurried over barefoot.

Ye Xiaonuan was at a loss for words, glancing at the man beside her who had been wearing a cold expression.

Then just look for another opportunity to escape

For a moment, Ye Xiaonuan suddenly felt a bit flustered, her small face, which was turned away from others, unnaturally revealed a hint of blush

After a long wait, as she watched the sedan chair come to a stop, she felt as if her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were about to be vomited out of her mouth

What can she do

At the very least, Ye Xiaonuan felt it was too embarrassing and a great loss of face

It is that beautiful young man again

You ... ... I ... ... '' Under the invisible pressure of his imposing aura, Ye Xiaonuan was momentarily at a loss for words

To be honest, he was shocked by the second brother's words, "This king wants her"

Certainly awkward

The room, rich in ancient charm, adorned with exquisite calligraphy and paintings, and valuable antiques, all appeared to Ye Xiaonuan as mere fleeting clouds. From the moment she entered with Long Li, her pair of cat-like, crystal-clear big eyes fell upon the low table in the room.

Is this situation awkward

What does he mean? Is he going to take her out to eat?

Just keep feeling frustrated

She is very hungry!

Is there any more? I am very hungry. It seems that one night is not enough, she boldly asked.

Anyone who suddenly sees a face filled with intimidation right after opening their eyes, before fully waking up, would surely feel uncomfortable, wouldn't they

Seated on the other side, Long Zeyu took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere, smiling at the man on his right and saying, "Fourth Brother, you may not know, this is the woman bestowed upon Second Brother by the Emperor of Cangyue Kingdom, named Ye Xiaonuan"

Wiping the sweat from her face haphazardly, she was just about to rush forward to reason with a certain man when a figure emerged from the grand, antique-style entrance of the restaurant, causing her to immediately halt in her tracks

This is extremely unfair

Want to run? She can't even outrun those four porters

It was as if she had noticed that she was awake, and that pair of cold eyes focused on her, the chilling gaze making Ye Xiaonuan hesitate even to turn over and get out of bed

"Second brother, who is this?" The man sitting across from the low table was momentarily taken aback, then looked at the woman who had suddenly appeared opposite him. His beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, and it was not difficult to detect the surprise in his tone

She has not forgotten the scene when he caught her

But the premise is to cast aside that icy demeanor and the chilling aura that repels strangers

Looking at that proud and imposing figure, he instinctively touched the back of his head and then gazed at the dim night sky

Upon waking with eyes open, it was already the morning of the second day. The jade screen in the bedroom had been removed, and its whereabouts were unknown, making the once grand and luxurious bedroom appear even more spacious.

Come on, at least say something, so she can start eating!

"Second Brother, Fourth Brother has been waiting up there for quite some time. I was just about to send someone to urge you along." Long Zeyu revealed a natural smile, and upon seeing that splash of water blue figure, a hint of deeper meaning appeared in his eyes...

If you want to look, then go ahead. Young lady, I have a good figure, letting you take a glance won't cost you a few pounds of flesh.

Throughout her life, she has always been picked up and dropped off by a private car

Having completed her provocation, seeing that he had no significant reaction, Ye Xiaonuan tidied her long, waist-length wavy hair, tossed her brows and eyes, and let the flirtatious strands of hair brush against the back of her neck. With a huff, she turned around and changed her clothes

After not having eaten anything proper for a day or two, Ye Xiaonuan weakly lifted the bed curtain, only to see a man sitting neatly dressed at the round table in the center of the room

The footsteps automatically followed Long Li's movements. Sitting on the mat, she unceremoniously plopped down beside him, her greedy gaze fixed entirely on the food laid out on the low table.

If he can force himself to do such things, what can she refuse?

Hearing someone speak, Ye Xiaonuan finally lifted her head to look over. The slightly dazed expression on her face clearly indicated that she had just noticed the unfamiliar handsome man in the room. He exuded an air of nobility, but his Danfeng eyes, which were even more beautiful than a woman's, added a hint of wicked charm to his demeanor

Long Li pressed her thin lips together, casting a fleeting glance at her face, which bore an expression of confusion. Then, without looking at her again or uttering a word, he treated her as if she were an object that did not exist.

He did not notice any unusual phenomena in the sky

"No... it's not..." Long Zeyu felt somewhat guilty under the piercing cold gaze.

"Get up and drink the porridge." Upon seeing her awake, Long Li sat imposingly and coldly commanded.

Staying indoors, Ye Xiaonuan felt as if she would suffocate, but once she stepped outside, she truly felt as if she might be driven to the brink of anger.

With a jade crown atop and a python robe draped over, the demeanor is imposing and dignified, while the appearance is strikingly handsome and charming, exhibiting no trace of flaw.
