Chapter 444: Chapter 444 Punishment(3)_1

"Gulp..."

Nangong Yiqing couldn’t help but swallow. He felt a strange swelling sensation in his body. He did not know why this was happening, but he felt unbearably uncomfortable, as though he had to knead the little girl in his arms to relieve himself.

Thinking about it, his sexy Adam’s apple rolled, and his thin lips couldn’t help but inch closer to her petal-like mouth.

Although Cai Wei’s eyes were closed and she couldn’t see anything, it didn’t mean she could not feel anything. When she sensed a warm breath approaching her, she abruptly opened her eyes.

Upon opening her eyes, what came into view was a magnified handsome face, almost sticking to hers. That sexy thin lips were slightly open as though it was about to kiss her.

Cai Wei was furious, vowing not to let off this vulgar man who took advantage of the situation easily.

"What are you doing?"

She shouted!

The man was startled, aborting his plan to steal a kiss. With an embarrassed blush on his handsome face, he straightened his waist and turned his face away.

"Um, nothing, just checking to see if you’re asleep!" he said.

The palace maid was done preparing the brown sugar water and brought it in.

Nangong Yiqing got up and ordered the maid to serve her the drink. Taking the opportunity, he went to the small room behind the hall to take a bath.

At the moment, his body was burning, the heat enveloping him as if he was on fire. If he didn’t take a cold shower immediately, the heat would burn away his sanity. It was only after immersing himself in the icy bath that the raging heat slowly dissipated. Nangong Yiqing heaved a long sigh of relief as if he had offloaded a tremendous burden!

Under the meticulous care of the palace maid, Cai Wei took a few sips of the warm brown sugar water, which caused her body to instantly relax, and the pain in her lower abdomen gradually disappeared.

Only then did she have the energy to think about other things.

So many things happened today—the Empress’s Shangsi Festival, the Princess’s kill order, Nangong Yiqing’s proposal, and most importantly, her space was gone!

Why was the space gone? And how could it just vanish into thin air?

Cai Wei couldn’t figure it out, and she felt so annoyed that she wanted to cry.

The reason she dared to fight back against the Princess in the palace and stand her ground against the imperial guards all relied on the fact that she had that space!

If she knew that her space was gone, she wouldn’t have dared to act so recklessly.

Furthermore, she had to be extra careful when she met the Empress later. Otherwise, with just one command from Her Highness, the Empress Dowager, her little life could be gone in a minute.

If that happened, she would have no choice but to await her death since she no longer had a space to hide in, and no divine beasts to give her support!

"What time is it now?"

Cai Wei glimpsed the sun in the sky through the window and asked the question.

"Miss, it is noon now!" The palace maid answered reverently with a bow.

Though she wasn’t her mistress right now, judging from King Qin’s attitude towards her, it was only a matter of time before she became her mistress. So, currying favor in advance with her future mistress should be considered a smart and sensible thing to do.

"What? It’s noon already? Oh my god! Has the feast started yet?"

Upon hearing the time, Cai Wei was immediately flustered.

She was invited by the Empress, and the reason why she was here was to witness her plotting. If she arrived late without any good reason, especially if she was late because she was with King Qin, she’d be in big trouble if the Empress doesn’t flay her alive!

Currently, she no longer had the shelter of her invisible space or divine beasts. So, she had to tread lightly!

"Miss, I need to go to the banquet. Can you take me there?"

Cai Wei was about to rise from the bed and get off, but as soon as she lifted the quilt, she caught sight of her bare legs. Her face flushed instantly, and with a whoosh, she quickly covered her legs with the quilt, eyeing the palace maid with a guilty conscience.
