First Intimate Contact (3)

His earlier questions actually had two reasons. First, he wanted to know what the pill recipe jade slip in Liu Zhengguang's hand looked like, to avoid making mistakes when he made his move. Second, he wanted to know if Qu Ping'er was truly devoted to him. If she had deliberately concealed anything, Yue Qianchou would never be sincere with her again. He would probably throw her onto the bed, strip her, and have his way with her right then and there. After he was done, he would abandon her or kill her without any hesitation.

It wasn't wrong to call him ruthless. Although he often joked around, deep down he was still the gang boss from his past life who had dominated the jianghu. How many people who started with nothing and became renowned gang bosses were truly kind-hearted?

Qu Ping'er leaned against Yue Qianchou, lying contentedly in his arms. She probably never imagined she had just narrowly escaped death. A rare gentleness appeared on Yue Qianchou's usually jovial and unrestrained face as he gently stroked Qu Ping'er's hair with his fingers.

"Ping'er!"

"Mhm!"

"Don't go back to the Qingguang Sect. Come with me!"

"Now?" Qu Ping'er paused and said, "I want to go with you, but how can I explain it to my Master? My Master has always been very good to me. If I leave without a word, my Master will worry."

"Your Master is Liu Zhengguang's disciple?"

"Mhm!"

"I'm really not at ease leaving you alone at the Qingguang Sect, especially since Liu Zhengguang has ill intentions towards you," Yue Qianchou said with concern.

"Hehe!" Qu Ping'er turned to look at him and smiled, "What's wrong? Are you worried Liu Zhengguang will take advantage of me?"

Yue Qianchou said seriously, "It's not just worry, it's extreme worry. Those two Liu family members, grandfather and grandson, are both terrible people. And those useless elders at the Qingguang Sect are all beasts in human clothing. I understand this better than you do. How could a mere disciple of the Qingguang Sect stand against them?"

Although his words were unpleasant, Qu Ping'er knew he was genuinely worried about her. After a sweet smile spread across her face, she said to him earnestly, "My Master's kindness to me is as immense as a mountain. I'm an orphan. When I was very young, my Master brought me to the mountain to cultivate and treated me like his own daughter. Among all the female disciples, my Master treated me the best. If I left without a word, not only would my Master worry, but my conscience would also trouble me."

"Is your Master male or female?" Yue Qianchou suddenly asked, out of place.

"Female. Why do you ask?" Qu Ping'er replied curiously.

"Oh! Then I'm relieved."

Qu Ping'er was stunned for a moment, then she reacted. She playfully punched him with her fist and spat, "What kind of messy things are you always thinking about!"

Yue Qianchou chuckled. He really wanted to say, 'It's because you're too pure.' It wasn't entirely his fault for thinking that way. He had waded through filth in his past life and seen too many dark things. He couldn't help but consider the negative aspects when looking at things, making him a rather suspicious person who didn't trust others easily.

"Sigh! It seems I can't persuade you," Yue Qianchou sighed lightly. Suddenly, he scooped Qu Ping'er up.

"Ah! What are you doing?" Qu Ping'er exclaimed, a mix of surprise and joy in her voice.

Yue Qianchou smiled calmly, "Do you trust me?"

"Mhm!" Qu Ping'er nestled happily in Yue Qianchou's arms like a cat and nodded.

Yue Qianchou's heart melted at the sight. He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead before saying, "Ping'er, listen to me carefully. I'm agreeing to let you return to the Qingguang Sect now, not because I don't want you to stay. I really want you to stay, but I don't want to make things difficult for you. Seeing you in a difficult situation would make me more upset than you. Do you understand? After you return to the Qingguang Sect, you must remember to protect yourself at all costs. As long as you still have me in your heart, do it for me. You must, you absolutely must take good care of yourself. Ping'er! Remember, no matter what happens in the future, I will find you. Even if I die, my soul will find you, and I will definitely let you know I'm here."

"I don't want you to die," Qu Ping'er immediately covered his mouth, tears streaming down her face as she said devotedly, "I want you to come find me alive. I will live well and wait for you to find me."

Yue Qianchou smiled gently, "As long as you can do it, I can do it. No one can stop me. Ping'er! Remember, our separation today is for a better reunion in the future."

"Mhm, mhm, mhm..." Qu Ping'er nodded desperately, tears flowing.

Seeing her tears pouring down and realizing she might cry for a long time, Yue Qianchou wanted to lighten the mood. He put her down and said, "I have something to ask of you. Will you agree, Ping'er?"

"Mhm, mhm..." Qu Ping'er said with teary eyes, "As long as I can do it, I'll agree to whatever you ask."

Yue Qianchou said dismissively, "This is something you can easily do. I'm just afraid you'll say nice things now but refuse later."

"Don't you trust me that much?" Qu Ping'er sounded a little annoyed. She suddenly saw a sly smile on Yue Qianchou's face and was taken aback. She asked nervously, "You're not going to ask me to do that again, are you? I already told you it's inconvenient with Liu Zhengguang staying here!"

Yue Qianchou was stunned, then he understood what she meant. He thought to himself, This girl's awareness is too high. He couldn't help but smile wryly, "Am I that kind of lewd person?"

Qu Ping'er's face turned red with embarrassment. She stamped her foot and pouted, "If it's not that, then just say it! I've already agreed, okay!"

"You said you won't go back on your word!" Yue Qianchou whispered into her ear, "I wonder how your two 'buns' on your chest feel to the touch. I want to reach inside your clothes and feel what it's like. You've already agreed, so no backing out!"

As he spoke, his hand slid down her smooth skin along her collar and gently grasped the soft flesh. Qu Ping'er trembled all over but didn't resist. She mumbled, "You still say you're not a lewd person. I've never seen anyone more..." As the sound of his hand kneading grew fainter, her muffled groans became uncontrollable.

Yue Qianchou, feeling pleased with himself for achieving his goal, happily withdrew his hand, brought it to his nose, and sniffed, "So fragrant!" Qu Ping'er was so embarrassed her face was almost hidden.

"Wait here, I'm going out for a moment and will be right back." Yue Qianchou seemed to have suddenly thought of something. After saying this, he opened the door, went out, and then closed it gently. Qu Ping'er didn't know what he was going out for, so she quickly tidied her collar, which had been loosened by that scoundrel's hands.

Yue Qianchou returned quickly. He came in, closed the door, and took out an exquisite small bag, saying with a smile, "I just bought this. It's for you."

"Ah! It's a storage bag! What a beautiful storage bag, I've never used one before." Qu Ping'er was overjoyed to receive the gift. After playing with it for a while, she suddenly frowned, "This must be very expensive. It must not have been easy for you alone outside, why did you have to spend this money!"

"Hehe! As long as you like it, spending a little money is nothing. Your husband doesn't have much else, but he has money. Inside the storage bag, I've put one hundred high-grade Spirit Stones, one thousand mid-grade Spirit Stones, and ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. Keep it with you and hide it well, just in case you need it when I'm not around," Yue Qianchou said with a smile.
