Binding Chi Xiu, Bibi Dong's Soul-Searching Question

The two of them opened the doors and entered the main hall.

"Hey, are you still holding hands?"

Chi Xiu said with a smile.

Hu Liena turned back to look at the hands the two had been holding all along, immediately let go, and gave Chi Xiu a charming eye roll.

"Teacher?"

Hu Liena walked into the hall and softly called for Bibi Dong, but received no response. The hall was empty as well.

Chi Xiu followed her inside. He looked up at the seat at the very top, but Bibi Dong was nowhere to be seen.

"Bibi Dong doesn't seem to be here."

Hu Liena's expression turned grave upon hearing that. She walked over and said, "When you see Teacher later, don't call her by name directly, understand?"

"Okay, okay."

"Did you hear me?! This is very important, don't take it lightly!"

"I heard you."

Hu Liena gave Chi Xiu a helpless look and walked out of the hall. She muttered to herself, "Could she be in her chambers?"

"Where are her chambers?"

"Come with me."

After saying that, Hu Liena once again took Chi Xiu's hand of her own accord and led him toward one of the side halls.

Chi Xiu could not help teasing her from behind. "Tell me, are you addicted to holding my hand?"

"I'm afraid you'll run away."

"Fine."

Chi Xiu shook his head and smiled.

A moment later, Hu Liena tilted her head slightly and spoke in a low voice. "Weren't you nervous? I thought... holding your hand might help you relax. If you mind, I'll let go."

Chi Xiu was stunned. "Huh? I don't mind. Of course I don't mind. Being held by such a beautiful big sister is a very happy thing too."

"Ow!"

After Chi Xiu said that, he suddenly felt someone smack him on the head. When he turned around, he found Gu Yuena following more than ten meters behind him, whistling as if nothing had happened.

You might as well rename yourself the Jealous Dragon King... So petty.

When they arrived outside Bibi Dong's chambers, Hu Liena turned and made a silencing gesture at Chi Xiu. She carefully opened the door and walked in, finally spotting that peerless beauty by the window.

"Teacher?"

Bibi Dong wore a thin white gauze nightgown as she stood by the window, her beautiful eyes quietly gazing into the distance. Her purple hair fell smoothly behind her head.

Whenever no one was around, she was always like this, with an unerasable loneliness between her brows.

"Nana, what is it?"

Chi Xiu heard Bibi Dong's pleasant voice from outside the door. He looked at Gu Yuena beside him and whispered, "Na'er, stay outside the door later. Don't come in."

Gu Yuena pouted her red lips. "I won't."

"Be good."

"No."

Gu Yuena turned her head aside, exposing her snowy-white neck. Her slightly puffed-up pink cheeks showed that she was still sulking.

"If you don't listen, don't even think about getting on my bed again."

Gu Yuena immediately turned to look at Chi Xiu, her little face filled with resentment. "I hate you, Master!"

She lightly stamped her foot, then crouched down against the door as though she had suddenly fallen out of favor.

Chi Xiu could only pat her head to comfort her. "Be good. I like Na'er the most. It's just that this situation is special."

"Hmph."

Gu Yuena shook her head, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Teacher, the boy you've been searching for has arrived. He's outside the door right now."

Bibi Dong's calm expression changed in an instant. She turned toward Hu Liena, her beautiful eyes lighting up. "Really?"

Hu Liena nodded.

"Let him in!"

Bibi Dong turned to face the door. More than once, she had felt that Chi Xiu was a messenger who could only appear in dreams. The less information she could uncover about him, the stronger that feeling became.

That boy who had restored her will to live had actually appeared before her once again.

Beneath the thin silk, Bibi Dong's full chest rose and fell. She stared excitedly toward the door, her long eyelashes trembling constantly.

Hu Liena came to the door, where Chi Xiu was still waiting.

"Be very careful with your words. I'll be right outside. If things become dangerous, I'll rush in and plead for you."

She warned him carefully. Chi Xiu nodded, accepting Hu Liena's kindness.

The two girls stood on opposite sides of the door, one on the left and one on the right. Gu Yuena glanced at the girl beside her and saw that this short-haired blonde girl seemed very nervous. Since she truly was worried about Master, Gu Yuena gave up on the idea of teasing her.

After Chi Xiu entered, Bibi Dong's gaze locked onto him in an instant.

The peerlessly beautiful woman's eyes were no longer as cold and venomous as they had been the first time. Instead, they had become burning hot. With a gentle wave of her hand, the doors shut tightly with a bang, startling Hu Liena outside.

"Seeing you again feels like a dream, but now I know it isn't. There really is someone like you in this world."

Bibi Dong stared at Chi Xiu with reddened eyes, as though she had met an old friend from whom she had long been separated.

Although they had only met once, that single encounter had allowed Chi Xiu to enter Bibi Dong's heavily guarded inner world without any effort.

At that moment, there was no trace of the Pope's imposing authority on the woman of peerless beauty. She stared at Chi Xiu, tears welling in her eyes.

A few seconds later, Bibi Dong slowly walked toward Chi Xiu. Her white gauze dress trailed a long tail behind her, her beautiful legs fair and smooth, and beneath the thin gauze was a nearly perfect body. Yet despite her perfect appearance, her heart was already riddled with wounds.

"Child, didn't you say you wanted to save me and protect me?"

Chi Xiu froze for a moment. Up close, Bibi Dong was truly beautiful. Any man's heart would be stirred by the sight of her red eyes and tears, but she had always pretended to be strong and never cried before others.

Chi Xiu nodded blankly.

Bibi Dong smiled. "Then don't leave me again, okay?"

Without waiting for Chi Xiu's answer, Bibi Dong took his hand and led him toward the bed. Her fingertips were slightly cold, but her skin was exceptionally soft and delicate. Being held by her felt very pleasant.

Chi Xiu sat on the edge of the bed, and Bibi Dong sat down beside him. Her outer garment was very thin, revealing smooth, fair skin beneath it. Her round, beautiful legs were exposed below the hem of her dress, and Chi Xiu's face flushed after only one glance.

My god, was this the charm of a mature beauty?!

This was simply lethal.

Chi Xiu looked away and adjusted his breathing, but every breath was filled with Bibi Dong's tantalizing fragrance.

He hurriedly said, "I can't stay long. I mainly came because I knew you'd been looking for me, and because I felt that perhaps I'm truly the only person in this world who understands what kind of person you are. I couldn't help wanting to see you again, to put your mind at ease, to make you feel that you're not alone..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Xiu suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

He raised his left arm and suddenly discovered that purple spider silk had wrapped around his wrist. Not only that, but his limbs were quickly bound by coils of spider silk as well. A breathtaking smile appeared on Bibi Dong's face, like the delight of someone whose little scheme had succeeded.

She controlled the spider silk and bound Chi Xiu to the bed. Then she climbed onto the bed herself and gently leaned over him.

Bibi Dong examined Chi Xiu as though he were a treasure. A seductive fragrance filled the air, and her hair fell over her face, leaving Chi Xiu momentarily dazed.

"I'm liking you more and more, little one. You're very clever. I don't want you escaping again."

Bibi Dong reached out with her soft hand and gently stroked Chi Xiu's face. She asked softly, "How old are you this year? Or rather, how old is your mental age?"

"I'm not telling you."

Chi Xiu struggled. The main problem was that their current position was far too awkward. This woman might not realize just how tempting she was to a man. If he lay on the bed later and went from sprawled out to visibly aroused, he might as well find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
