outside the house.
Situ Shuang'er, who had just watched Nangong Wuhen leave the courtyard, had just stepped onto the steps when her ears twitched.
That faint sob, though extremely soft and suppressed, was still caught by her, who possessed the Divine Sea Realm Second Layer.
Situ Shuang'er paused, a deep worry flashing across her face.
"Mother? What's wrong?"
The girl hurried forward, walked to the door, and anxiously knocked on the wooden door:
"Are you feeling unwell? Shuang'er noticed something was off about your voice just now."
Thump.
Lin Wanyin felt a chill run down her spine, as if she had fallen into an abyss.
The audacious bastard in front of him not only didn't stop, but intensified his actions.
Shame, panic, and that unspeakable, strange feeling burned away at her reason like wildfire.
"You little brat, stop it now..."
Lin Wanyin frantically begged for mercy in her heart, her hands gripping Chu Yunfei's forearm like a madwoman.
Her long, slender nails dug deep into her tough flesh, even leaving streaks of bright red blood.
However, with Chu Yunfei's current physical strength, this amount of force was nothing to him.
He gazed leisurely at the stunningly beautiful face before him, his eyes filled with mischief and amusement.
Lin Wanyin felt dizzy and disoriented.
In the span of a few breaths.
She managed to squeeze out a response:
"Shuang... Shuang'er..."
"Mother is alright... She just took a calming pill... Her body feels very heavy... She was... about to go to sleep."
His words were broken and he was breathless.
Outside the door.
Situ Shuang'er's hand, which had been hovering in mid-air, paused slightly, and her delicate brows furrowed involuntarily.
She had spent every day with Lin Wanyin since childhood, and had never heard her mother speak in such a sticky, weak, and trembling tone before.
Moreover, there was a clear hint of unspoken restraint in that voice.
"Mother, why does your voice sound so strange?"
Situ Shuang'er's doubts intensified, and instead of subsiding, she took another half step forward.
She raised her slender hand, placed it on the door, and gently pushed it.
Why is the door locked from the inside?
A hint of anxiety and suspicion flashed in Situ Shuang'er's eyes:
"Mother, don't try to be strong. Shuang'er will come in and take a look at you."
As she spoke, the door latch creaked softly, and Situ Shuang'er seemed poised to break down the door.
boom!
The soft sound of the door being pushed open was like a thunderclap from the heavens, exploding above Lin Wanyin.
If the door is pushed open...
If she were to see this...
How will she get along with Shuang'er in the future?
Lin Wanyin panicked completely, looking up at Chu Yunfei with pleading eyes.
Chu Yunfei glanced down.
It's almost done.
If Situ Shuang'er were to witness this scene, given that girl's arrogance and temperament, she would probably draw her sword and fight to the death on the spot.
Chu Yunfei's gaze narrowed, and the Boundless Creation Scripture within his body suddenly circulated to its maximum.
Buzz!
A vast, ocean-like life force erupted instantly.
The next moment.
Lin Wanyin as if she had been struck by lightning.
Her beautiful eyes widened suddenly, and her mind went completely blank.
"You..."
Lin Wanyin opened her mouth, still somewhat dazed, and subconsciously swallowed.
She stared blankly at Chu Yunfei, unable to utter a single word for a moment.
Chu Yunfei was stunned when he saw this.
This woman...
Was it intentional or unintentional?
His Adam's apple bobbed violently, and he took half a step back.
Fairy.
She's truly a deadly, exquisite enchantress.
Lin Wanyin finally came to her senses and met Chu Yunfei's gaze, feeling utterly ashamed and indignant.
This guy actually...!
She glared fiercely at Chu Yunfei, then quickly turned her head and called out towards the door:
" Shuang'er, your mother is indeed hiding something from you."
"But it's getting late now. I'll tell you tomorrow. You should go back and rest now."
Situ Shuang'er, standing outside the door, paused.
really.
Her mother was really keeping a secret from her.
But... is it about that kind of thing?
"Mother, what's wrong? Can't you tell me now? Please open the door first."
Situ Shuang'er couldn't help but step forward, her delicate hand resting on the cold door.
Lin Wanyin's face turned pale again, she was so shocked that she almost lost her soul.
Without regard for anything else, she interrupted sharply, "Mother is tired and wants to rest! You should rest early too, we'll talk tomorrow!"
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Wanyin suddenly changed, becoming stern and slightly angry:
"Now that Shuang'er has become the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sword Sect, does that mean she no longer wants to listen to her mother?!"
Outside the door.
Situ Shuang'er's hand suddenly froze in mid-air.
From childhood until now, when has her mother ever reprimanded her in such a stern tone?
A wave of grievance washed over her, but Situ Shuang'er bit her lip and quickly softened her tone, saying:
"Of course not... How could Shuang'er disobey her mother?"
"Then Mother, get some rest. Shuang'er will come to see you again tomorrow morning."
The girl outside the door sighed with a hint of disappointment.
The soft footsteps echoed across the bluestone slabs, gradually fading into the distance, finally disappearing around the corner of the front courtyard's veranda.
call...
Inside the room, Lin Wanyin was limp and exhausted, lying on the edge of the bed, panting heavily.
Cold sweat was already clinging to my back.
God knows what kind of torment she endured in those brief moments.
Almost there.
It was just a hair's breadth away.
Lin Wanyin propped herself up, her beautiful eyes blazing with fury as she glared at the culprit beside her.
"You bastard, how could you do that just now?"
Chu Yunfei touched the tip of his nose, blinked, and his handsome face was full of innocence and kindness.
"Lin Yi, you really can't blame me for this."
He shrugged and said, "In that situation just now, it's understandable that I couldn't control myself."
Lin Wanyin gritted her teeth.
You'd be a fool to believe you.
That little rascal clearly did it on purpose.
Looking at her charmingly shy and angry expression, Chu Yunfei smiled, took a step forward, and pulled her back into his arms.
"Stop fooling around..."
Lin Wanyin tensed up, playfully pressing her hand against his chest, and said hastily, "You should hurry up and leave now that Shuang'er has gone back to her room."
Chu Yunfei did not answer.
He lowered his head and gently kissed her, his large hand quietly sliding down, slowly tracing her slender waist.
"Are you really willing to let me go?"
Chu Yunfei pressed his ear against her burning hot earlobe, his voice hoarse and deep.
Lin Wanyin trembled and closed her eyes.
The scalding masculine breath filled her nostrils, and the hand that had been trying to push him away gradually lost its strength.
If it were just now, she would have pushed him out without hesitation.
But now...
The flames that had been ignited within her, like wildfire in a wasteland, completely burned away her last shred of reason.
There was a long silence.
Lin Wanyin's eyes gleamed, her pearly teeth lightly biting her lower lip, and she uttered a whisper as soft as a mosquito's buzz:
"Then... make less noise."
Chu Yunfei's lips curled into a triumphant smile, a glint of smugness flashing in his eyes.
"Okay, I'll try my best."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfei leaned in and pressed down on him.
For a moment, the extremely suppressed, faint sounds in the deathly silent room began to echo again.
at the same time.
Outside the courtyard, behind the shadow of that tall, sturdy mimosa tree.
Situ Shuang'er was biting her lower lip tightly, her delicate face flushed red.
She... never left at all.
She merely made a sound with her footsteps, then quietly turned back.
Her mother's unusual behavior left her feeling uneasy.
However.
She hid in the shadows and listened intently for a moment.
The strange sounds emanating intermittently from inside the room struck her deepest consciousness like a thunderbolt.
That sound...
She knew it all too well.
That very night at Liuyun Flowing Cloud Peak of the Azure Mystic Sect, the sounds coming from my mother's bedroom were exactly the same kind of blush-inducing noise.
At that moment, she guessed that her mother was...
As time went by, she almost completely forgot about that night.
But today...
In this secluded courtyard of the Great Qian Imperial City, she heard it again.
Situ Shuang'er raised her hands and covered her burning cheeks tightly, her eyes filled with shyness and embarrassment.
"Mother must be in a really bad mood and under a lot of pressure lately... so she's using this method to vent her emotions..."
Situ Shuang'er was in a state of utter confusion, frantically trying to find excuses for Lin Wanyin in her mind.
But... this is just too embarrassing.
The sounds inside the room grew clearer, Situ Shuang'er felt her heart pounding so hard it was almost jumping out of her throat.
She couldn't listen anymore.
The girl lifted her skirt and, like a startled fawn, tiptoed and scurried towards her side room.
Bang.
Close the door and bolt it shut.
Situ Shuang'er collapsed onto the bed, exhausted. Her beautiful face was burning hot, and even her fair and slender swan neck was flushed with a bright red.
She collapsed into the brocade quilt, covering her ears tightly, but all she could hear in her mind was that extremely suppressed sound.
a long time.
Situ Shuang'er propped herself up from under the covers and looked down as if possessed.
"What does that kind of feeling actually feel like?"
"Could I... try it myself?"
The moment this absurd thought popped into her head, Situ Shuang'er was startled herself.
"Good heavens! Situ Shuang'er, what are you thinking about?!"
She shook her head violently, and, filled with shame and indignation, raised her hand to slap her burning cheeks.
You are the unparalleled genius of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the future empress possessing the Nine-Colored Imperial Phoenix Physique.
How could you be curious about such a thing?!
No, no, that's too embarrassing.
Situ Shuang'er forcibly suppressed the wild beating in her chest, sat cross-legged, gritted her teeth, and began to circulate her sect's internal energy, forcing herself into a cold meditative state.
