Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty
Chapter 365 - 365: Blackened Junior Sister (70)

They were so close that Liu Mo did not dare to open his mouth for fear that his lips would touch hers, which would make Yue Ran feel that he was a particularly reckless and careless man.

Neither of the two moved for a moment, and the silence was so dense that it seemed as though there was nothing left but the sound of an increasingly intense heartbeat.

After an unknown amount of time, Yue Ran suddenly let out a chuckle, gently leaned her head on his shoulder, moved her arms around his waist, and then clasped them together for a while.

"I know that Your Highness is an affectionate man," Yue Ran said, her breath brushing along his neck. "Please leave a token behind for me, so I will not think that this is all simply a beautiful dream…"

Yue Ran looked up at the young man and, by accident, touched the white pearl necklace hanging around his neck. The pearl looked plain and inferior, and one could tell that it was a cheap product at a glance.

"This pearl…" Liu Mo left his words trailing off. He lowered his eyes to look at the bead of pearl on his neck that Yue Ran was touching and continued, "Is not worthy of you. Why do I not give you a better one instead?"

The silent hypnotic spell that Yue Ran had cast before was gradually taking effect. This was something she had unintentionally stumbled upon when she was studying the dual cultivation technique two days ago.

As long as the subject of the spell, which was Liu Mo in this case, had a certain degree of liking and affection for the caster, Yue Ran, based on the caster's own appearance and other prerequisites, a certain level of hypnosis could be produced by looking into each other's eyes.

This spell could also be understood as an enhanced version of psychological suggestion.

In an alternate scenario, Yue Ran could look for an excuse or search for an opportunity to ask the young man to give the Ice Glazed Bead to her after a period of contact with him. But this scenario would require too much time, which she does not have.

General Qiao had already returned from his previous expedition, and Yue Ran did not know if someone had suspected her appearance on the stage just now or if someone could have noticed something wrong about her one way or another. In any case, it was always the safer option to assume the worst.

Thus, the young woman would rather take some risks and adopt a quicker approach such as this, which had a high degree of success considering the short time interval.

Fortunately, Liu Mo really admires Yue Ran's face, voice, figure, and dance. He was captivated by her, which made the spell effect particularly powerful. The simple hint Yue Ran supplied made the young man readily hand over what she was seeking.

"I carry a beautiful pearl with me called the Ice Soul Pearl," Liu Mo said. "This Ice Soul Pearl is beautiful and radiant, which is a perfect match for your fair and delicate skin."

Liu Mo would not spare his money when it comes to the things he likes and admires. Even though the Ice Soul Pearl does look beautiful, it was rather pointless for a grown man like him to hold it. Despite the fact that the Ice Soul Pearl was indeed a precious object, he did not find any other uses for it other than appreciating its luminescent beauty. Giving a beautiful gift to a beautiful woman would be a preferable option.

It would be a wonderful thing to add icing to the cake.

Yue Ran took the Ice Soul Pearl with a startled look on her face as Liu Mo tied the necklace around her neck once they had stood steady on their feet. The young woman stroked the bead lightly, and Liu Mo nodded with satisfaction.

The two continued chatting, and the atmosphere turned ambiguous for a while. Yue Ran's straightforwardness made the heart of a grown man flutter. In the end, when the time was ripe, the young woman made an excuse to leave but was unexpectedly stopped by Liu Mo.

"Then I…" Liu Mo began, faltering for a beat. "Do I get any token…?"

When Yue Ran heard those words, a smile crept up her lips. She turned around and walked back to the young man.

Her eyes were like autumn water, extremely clear, clearly imprinting the light and shadow of all things. And when she smiles lightly, it feels like a breeze, gently and skillfully swaying people's hearts.

His heart.

Liu Mo felt his heart beat faster as he gazed at her, and the tips of his ears flushed a warm red.

When Yue Ran was close enough, she took out an accessory from inside her sleeve. It was a purple stone with an odd shape, but it was bright and smooth, as if there were glittering stars contained in it, which was very beautiful.

"This is a unique prayer stone in my hometown," Yue Ran said. "If Your Highness keeps it close to Your Highness, it will bless Your Highness with peace."

The young woman's gaze was warm as she stared at the prayer stone in her hand.

"I have been carrying it since I left my hometown," Yue Ran said. "I will now give it to Your Highness the Third Prince. Please do not lose it." There was a pause before she continued, "I understand that it is not worth much in Your Highness' eyes, so if Your Highness does not want it… Your Highness is welcome to give it back to me."

The expression that Yue Ran had on her face was exceptionally sincere that even a complete stranger would feel moved simply by looking at her appearance.

At first, Liu Mo merely desired to experience the feeling of romance. However, the young man did not anticipate...
