Chapter 274: Chapter 235 Wrinkling (5000-word long Chapter asking for monthly tickets)_1

Li Xuan unusually skipped work that day. He had spent half an hour in the signing room, but after feeling restless, he decided to ask Xiaowei Jiang for a leave of absence.

Jiang Hanyun agreed readily without much thought, even though she felt a sudden wave of uneasiness.

This was because during the few days that she had been confined in Zhenyao Tower, Li Xuan had managed all the affairs in Mingyou City efficiently without any problems.

Jiang Hanyun felt she owed Li Xuan a favor, hence today helping Li Xuan to look after the Third Flag was considered a gesture of reciprocity.

Lately, Li Xuan’s impression in Jiang Hanyun’s eyes improved greatly, he not only rigorously cultivated, but also worked tirelessly in official matters. This made her see the Li Xuan of a few years ago, so she felt at ease.

What she didn’t know was that after Li Xuan left Zhuque Hall, he rushed to Xue’s mansion as fast as a raging thunderstorm.

But upon reaching Xue’s mansion, Li Xuan, who had already sobered up due to the cold wind, began to hesitate. He thought to himself that he was indeed a scumbag. The idea of using someone to vent his pent-up desire was utterly disrespectful and inhuman.

However, since he was already here, he might as well give Yunrou a surprise. It shouldn’t always be her who took the initiative to find him.

Li Xuan did not wait for the porter to announce him, nor did he plan to alarm Madam Xue. He simply climbed over the north wall near the east side.

—Before, Xue Yunrou had told him that she lived at this location, in a loft near the north wall inside the Xue’s mansion.

The Xue family was a prestigious family in Jiangnan with vast lands in south Zhili. Madam Xue was good at managing, and over the course of more than a decade, she accumulated a wealth that rivalled that of a nation. Therefore, the ward’s intensity in Xue’s mansion even surpassed that of Earl Chengyi’s mansion.

Theoretically, unless it was a great master skilled in illusion methods like Demoness Zidie, anyone who entered would inevitably alert the serving Wu cultivators/ spellcasters in the mansion.

However, Li Xuan had a token from Xue Yunrou which allowed him to go unimpeded to Bamboo Thought Building where Xue Yunrou resided.

"Who is there?" Xue Yunrou who was practising cultivation was immediately alerted when Li Xuan climbed onto the second floor.

Two flying swords came flying out from the building. However, the fierce sword aura stopped in mid-air just as they reached before Li Xuan.

"Xuan?"

The expression on Xue Yunrou’s face was one of surprise, with a hint of delight, "Aren’t you supposed to be working at the yamen? Why are you here?"

"Naturally, I missed you! So I took half a day off." Li Xuan’s figure entered the building, only to see Xue Yunrou dressed in a barely-there silk negligee, sitting cross-legged on the bed.

This immediately reminded him of Xue Yunrou’s enchanting figure and the city-shaking dance on the painting boat that day.

As a result, his desire, which had cooled down slightly on the way here, flared up again, reaching to the very depths of his mind.

Li Xuan cursed under his breath. He only planned to chat with Xue Yunrou when he climbed over the wall, and hopefully, take another trip to the painting boat and enjoy Xue Yunrou’s beautiful dance once again.

However, at this point, Li Xuan realised he was unable to think clearly anymore; the only thing on his mind was ’papa papa papa.’

He struggled to maintain his sanity, "Yunrou, are you practicing? I didn’t disrupt you, did I?"

"Not at all! The cultivation technique I practice is special. It’s difficult for anyone to disturb me, even in loud marketplaces."

Xue Yunrou didn’t notice his heated gaze that could tear her clothes apart. His statement, ’I miss you,’ left her overjoyed. She put on her outer garment while the corners of her lips curled up uncontrollably, "How strange, Xuan, you actually missed me, I thought in your eyes, there is always only public affairs and cases, and your lord, Xiaowei. "

Li Xuan watched her dress and thought to himself "Why go through all the trouble (of putting on clothes)? I will have to undress you later." Realizing his thought was beastly, he also found himself in an aroused state. He quickly sat down by the table hoping it would shield his "killing intent".

Yet his actions might have been too vigorous or he was too excited, the round table was bumped upwards by him, nearly toppling it over.

Xue Yunrou was slightly puzzled but didn’t dwell on it. After she finished arranging her attire and her appearance, she sat cheerfully beside Li Xuan, "Do you have any plans for the afternoon, Xuan? I have always wanted someone to accompany me to stroll around Qixia Mountain. The sight there is beautiful. And I have never been to the glazed pagoda in Great Baoan Temple. And why not...."—

She pointed to her lips; "we go to Xuanwu Lake, and I can dance a few more for you. apart from the Tianmo Manmiao Dance, I have also learned the Monv Kouxin Dance. Although it was created by the Demon Sect, the dance moves are truly beautiful and also great for exercising the body."

Just as she finished saying that, a ’thud thud’ sound came from beneath the round table.

This left Xue Yunrou with a puzzled look on her face, wondering where on earth did the drumming sound come from.

Li Xuan was trying hard to hold down the table while cursing why the table was so low. It did not give him any leeway or space, and it was too light to suppress a Wu cultivator’s arousal. In an attempt to control his raging breath, he answered, "I don’t want to go anywhere right now. I just want to look at you."

Only at this point did Xue Yunrou notice Li Xuan’s abnormality, her pretty face instantly flushed.

However, Li Xuan’s words moved her deeply.

Xue Yunrou hesitated for a long time, thinking on whether she should escape from this dangerous predator or not, when she was abruptly pulled by Li Xuan into his arms.
