Chapter 423: 297

That night.

From what had just happened, it was unknown whether Jing Chen considered it bliss or embarrassment.

It was truly unclear whether it was punishment or something else.

In the end, he was still counterattacked inexplicably. Was there anything more depressing than this in the world?

Lord Jing signified there was absolutely not!

Hearing Jing Chen’s words, Mu Lin turned around, a faint smile flickering in his detached eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, "Yes, my lord." He spread out the lightly curled item in his hands, making Jing Chen inexplicably break out in cold sweat.

Rows of silver needles shone dazzlingly under the light. Jing Chen probably understood what Mu Lin wanted to do to him.

"Linlin, can you really go through with it?" He knew beforehand, he should have never allowed her to drink at dinner. He never thought that the tipsy Mu Lin, although not significantly different from the everyday Mu Lin, was even more bizarre. It was extremely dangerous if she mishandled things.

Regarding the so-called candlelit dinner, Jing Chen really had no idea whether it was a blessing or a curse. The booze-warmed Mu Lin was unusually enthusiastic. Even when faced with his closeness, she was more...ahem, irresistible than usual.

But why couldn’t she forget about her research!

Even though she had been drinking and was somewhat confused, Mu Lin was still Mu Lin.

The silver needles in her hand were placed on the bedside table, and she took one out. When those silver needles pierced into his body, one after another, Jing Chen got a raw taste of the full range of experiences they offered. This was an experience that was truly unspeakable, one could only comprehend it through personal experience. Jing Chen stated, he absolutely did not want to experience it for the second time, the feeling of not being able to control his own body.

This was also the first time that Jing Chen had personally experienced Mu Lin’s medical skills. Of course, their initial encounter could not be considered such an experience.

The curve of her mouth, as seen in Jing Chen’s eyes, seemed somewhat eerie. Pulling out a pair of scissors from nowhere, Jing Chen watched with dread as it moved closer to him.

"Linlin? ..." Seeing the focused look in Mu Lin’s eyes, Jing Chen broke out in a cold sweat. This wasn’t a joke! His bound hands kept moving, the way Mu Lin tied people up, even Jing Chen couldn’t free himself so quickly, especially when the strange sensations that had just occurred made him lose any self-control.

From the very beginning, Jing Chen realized that the look in Mu Lin’s eyes when she looked at him was very concentrated.

Although she was a doctor, in Jing Chen’s heart, Mu Lin was just his woman, his most beloved woman.

With joy and disappointment attacking him simultaneously, Jing Chen really did not know whether he should be happy or disappointed. He was glad that her gaze towards everyone was the same, yet disappointed that Mu Lin couldn’t treat him differently.

At that moment, in Mu Lin’s eyes, the person in front of her was simply the subject of her research. However, was that really all there was to it? Only Mu Lin herself would know.

In reality, Jing Chen did not know that Mu Lin’s willingness to engage with the ’alive’ him was in itself a mark of her difference towards him.

With a couple of snipping sounds, ahem, it seemed that Mu Lin wouldn’t take him for a joke. But when the snipping sound fell, every bit of Jing Chen had been thoroughly exposed before Mu Lin’s eyes.

At this moment, a change occurred in Mu Lin’s expression, as if tinged with pleasure. This was the first time that she had seen changes in a living man’s body. It was completely different from a corpse.

The scissors had been put back in their place, and Mu Lin again pulled out a slender silver needle from behind, and it was quite a big one, causing some anxiety in Jing Chen.

"Linlin, stop!" His bound hands moved faster, yet in the end, he could only watch helplessly as the silver needle pierced his skin. Then, Jing Chen continued to witness himself gradually shrinking until finally, he returned to his original state.

At this moment, he collapsed on the spot.

Time seemed to halt at this moment. Nobody could understand or empathize with Jing Chen’s feelings at this moment. How should one describe it? Besides being complicated, the feeling was truly ineffable and inexpressible.

A hint of resignation flashed in his eyes. What on earth was all this?

Although Mu Lin had performed such an experiment on a despicable man before, this was truly the first time she had performed it for real. She pushed the silver needle in a little more, lightly flicked the top, then pulled it out.

Everything before her eyes changed again, bouncing back with vigor.

By now, the rope binding Jing Chen had finally been untied. Just as Mu Lin had barely returned the silver needle to the bedside table, she was abruptly pulled forward. Caught off guard, she staggered backwards, only to be met with a pair of complicated eyes.

Of course, at this moment, Mu Lin’s clothes were still perfectly intact. As for Lord Jing,

Looking at Jing Chen, whose eyes were fiercely aflame, Mu Lin’s eyes merely flickered with innocence, her hands pinned to the bed, unable to move.

This resoundingly straightforward sentence nearly completely ruined the mood. There was no helping it. At that moment, Jing Chen’s appearance in Mu Lin’s eyes,

Perhaps, after tonight, what he needed to do was to add the woman beneath him to his household register. Jing Chen was becoming somewhat impatient.

But this time, even if Jing Chen didn’t say anything, Mu Lin remained the same. It seems the effects of the alcohol hadn’t worn off yet.

When others drank, they exhibited a different demeanor after, but when Mu Lin drank, she was exactly the same, but sometimes, with some different emotions.

Like waking from a dream.
