Chapter 538: Chapter 345: Is She There?_2

Li Qingyan looked at the man standing before her, her voice laced with jest, "As for this palace..."

"So, Qingyan, you do this, are you ready to fulfill your promise?"

Xu Yuan cut her off.

If he let her continue, he would fall into the rhythm of this bad woman.

Li Qingyan was slightly startled at his words:

"What?"

Xu Yuan took her fingertips and repeated the action she had just taken, then said as if it were only natural:

"You... do you not know what this behavior means?"

Li Qingyan looked up at him, a hint of subtle provocation in her gaze, and her moist, delicate tongue gently licked the corner of her lips:

"Hmm... for men like you, this behavior should signify permission to do the same, no?"

"....."

Their gazes locked, and a wicked fire spontaneously ignited within Xu Yuan, giving him a sudden urge to reach out and press down on the back of her head, his mouth curling into a smile:

"Right, it seems you do understand, Qingyan..."

"So, what do you want to do to this palace?"

Her speech was interrupted,

As she spoke, she leaned back, supporting herself on her arms, with her soft, long hair spilling onto the couch.

The curves beneath her clothing became intermittently visible due to her movements, a wisp of alluring charm flashing through her eyes.

Watching her gaze, Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, then chuckled:

"You seem to be calling upon this palace again?"

Li Qingyan reached up to tuck a few strands of her loose hair behind her ear, looking up into his eyes, her voice soft and low:

"Is it not because of you, Changtian?"

"Hmm?"

"I’ve found that referring to myself as ’this palace’ seems to excite you more..."

Whoosh—

The couch sank, her red garments like blood, the pushed-down woman lying on her back upon it.

He braced himself at an angle above her, their faces close, their warm, fresh breaths mingling on each other’s faces.

While locked in gaze, Li Qingyan gently turned her face away, exposing her fair, naked jaw and slender neck bare under his breath.

Her expression was indifferent, only her hanging ears blushed slightly from sensitivity.

Seeing her demeanor, the flame in Xu Yuan’s heart gradually died down.

He had come to a realization.

Although this bad woman looked like she was easy for anyone to conquer, if she truly wanted, she would not have chosen to have this encounter on the way to meet the Crown Prince.

First, there was simply not enough time.

Second, considering the Wrapped Chest Princess’s reserved nature in protecting her chastity, if she truly wanted to give herself to him, she would not be as calm as she was now.

Third, her cultivation level was too weak; she might not even be able to break through his defenses.

In the end, it was very likely just a taste of sweetness before being interrupted.

The occasional teasing and sporadic sweetness brought far more emotional value than giving herself away in one go.

Don’t ask why he knew this; if asked, it’s because he had personally experienced it.

Back when he was still a naive young man, he would often find himself unknowingly caught in the traps of those bad women from his past life, sometimes even taking pride in advancing another step in their game.

In the end, he was not only deceived out of his body but also his money and emotions.

However, thanks to those bad women from his former life, Xu Yuan was now immune to such schemes and even found them distasteful.

Leaning close to her ear, Xu Yuan’s voice was soft:

"Li Qingyan, I don’t know what excuse you’ll use next to interrupt me, but I want to tell you, some things can be tolerated once or twice, but not again and again.

"Being tricked too much can wear a person out.

"Promises without action are truly annoying."

Having said that, Xu Yuan pushed himself up from the couch.

As he began to rise, Xu Yuan suddenly felt his wrist being gripped tightly.

She held on so strongly that it caused him some pain.

But before he could speak,

The next moment, his body was pulled back.

Bang!

A muffled sound.

Their foreheads collided, his body pressing directly against her soft, delicate form.

Dizzy from the impact, Xu Yuan’s head spun while Li Qingyan, without blinking her eyes, stared at him, her voice light:

"Xu Yuan, speaking for yourself is not a good habit."

Having said that,

Her gaze shifted to a corner of the carriage:

"Tianyan, if you’ve had your fill of watching, leave now."

"....." Xu Yuan.

His pupils shrank slightly, and Xu Yuan suddenly felt a chilling sensation.

What...

Tianyan had been sitting nearby watching all along?

Probing with his spiritual vision across the carriage, but finding nothing, Xu Yuan immediately cursed:

"Are you sick? Let go."

"Let go? Weren’t you just suspecting me?"

Li Qingyan’s beautiful eyes curved into crescent moons as she spoke softly and slowly:

"I’ve already told you before getting on the carriage that I’m not joking with you tonight."

As she spoke,

she glanced again at the corner of the carriage, her lips curling slightly:

"Aren’t you leaving yet?"

"..."

This pretentious look made Xu Yuan subconsciously glance in the direction of her gaze.

The carriage of the Black Dragon Horse was large and almost fully equipped within; his eyes fell upon the tea tray and the kneeling cushion placed there.

But as far as he could see, there was nothing.

His spiritual vision reached out repeatedly though without gaining anything.

Only the tea tray and the cushion were there; the Washboard Saintess’ energy mechanism and figure were completely absent.

Great, this drama queen of a woman actually tried to frighten him by pretending to withdraw when advancing.

After all, in her eyes, there was absolutely no way he could detect Tianyan’s energy mechanism at his Soul Condensation Realm level.

In thought,

the woman pinned beneath him seemed to hear some reply and laughed with a clear voice in response:

"Saintess, if you have something to say, just speak directly. Why bother with spiritual messages?"

After speaking, she paused for a moment, then the laughter in her voice resumed:

"Indeed, since this carriage belongs to Changtian, I have no right to command you.

"Fine then, if the Saintess wishes to stay and watch the spring affair between Changtian and me, as long as you don’t interfere, I don’t mind at all."

"....." Xu Yuan.

Looking at Li Qingyan’s deliberately serious look, Xu Yuan suddenly became uncertain of his conjectures.

After all, the Yantian Art was too mysterious, and he had no way to confirm whether it contained techniques that might shield against his spiritual vision.

Licking his dry lips, Xu Yuan kept a steady expression, making his eyes deliberately strange as he looked at the woman beneath him:

"Heh... If you are unwilling, just say so; there’s no need for acting.

"With Tianyan’s temperament, if she really wanted to do something, she would never beat around the bush like this."

At these words, Li Qingyan slowly turned her gaze back and looked at the man atop her, her eyes forming a seductive arc:

"That does make sense. Since she doesn’t want to come out, let’s pretend she isn’t here."

With that, she slightly pushed him away, a fiery look flashing in her eyes.

The next moment,

her blood-red robe shattered into a flurry of silk, spiraling throughout the interior of the carriage.

The elegant lines of her abdomen, the enticing curves of her waist, and her skin fairer than snow were now connected only by a ferocious scar leading to the remnants of a black wrapped chest and panties...

"...."

Xu Yuan’s gaze instantly intensified, his expression solemn, as he stared unblinkingly.

Li Qingyan propped herself up with one hand behind her and slowly reached toward her chest, the tips of her fingers trembling imperceptibly:

"It seems... our Saintess really does want to watch."

Having said that, her index finger gently brushed over the top edge of the chest wrap, and a fine tear appeared along the edge of the black fabric...

"Zzzzzz..."

The fabric, unable to bear the burden, began to tear, its sound especially noticeable in the silent carriage.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan’s eyes became even more focused, his mouth running nonstop:

"Actually... There’s no need for you to say all these harsh words; it’s only the second time."

While speaking, he watched even more meticulously.

The black fabric was of high quality, and the sound of its subtle fraying was pleasant to the ears.

Starting from the central upper end, the tear spread slowly downwards, the delightful soft silhouette gradually protruding beneath the ripping cloth.....

As if time had frozen at that moment.

After cutting through the chest wrap, her expression remained calm, but her heart began to beat faster with the tearing of the fabric.

Xu Yuan couldn’t hear her deliberately suppressed heartbeat but, seeing that she had no further movements, he somewhat guessed her thoughts.

Tianyan was probably not there.

It appeared that compared to the bad women of his past life, the Princess still lacked some experience.

If she had been a bit more decisive, he might have actually been fooled.

With this thought, Xu Yuan decided to give her a hand.

In the utter silence,

he suddenly raised an index finger and inserted it into the black fabric of the chest wrap that was slowly coming apart.

"......" Li Qingyan’s breath hitched.

The delicate softness transmitted to her along his fingertips, and the sensation from his fingertips likewise conveyed into her mind...
