"Not... really?" Lin Wanrong exclaimed in surprise. Her words were quite strange. When they talked about dual cultivation down in the well just now, she was shy and hesitant, but now, she actively brought up this question. Could it be that good fortune was truly falling from the sky? This fortune, however, seemed a bit too big.
His voice grew louder, catching the attention of Xiao Yu Ruo on the other side. She turned her head to look at him, then glanced at Xiao Qingxuan. Suspicion crept into her heart – what was the relationship between Lin San and this celestial-like woman?
Although Miss Xiao was confident in her beauty, she couldn't compare to Xiao Qingxuan in front of her. She sighed inwardly, wondering how many strange things this Lin San was hiding from her.
Xiao Qingxuan's face turned slightly red. She glanced at him, bit her lip, and, with determination, led them away for nearly an hour. Even though she was with two people, her speed left the official soldiers far behind.
The three of them followed a different path downhill, rough and muddy. However, Xiao Qingxuan didn't seem to mind. Urgently searching for a spot, she found an open valley with a natural cave halfway up. Leading the two inside, she observed that the place was spacious and dry, suitable for a rest.
With a flushed face, Xiao Qingxuan looked at Xiao Yu Ruo and said, "Miss Xiao, you must be tired after walking for so long. Rest for a while." As she spoke, Xiao Yu Ruo couldn't react in time and was already acupunctured by her, falling into a faint.
Seeing Xiao Qingxuan's unusual expression, Lin Wanrong hurriedly asked, "Qingxuan, what's going on?"
Xiao Qingxuan looked at him deeply and said, "Those thieves are shameless. They put aphrodisiacs in Miss's room. Luckily, I discovered it early and destroyed it. Since Miss is still asleep, she hasn't inhaled it. That's the only reason she escaped. Otherwise, she wouldn't have avoided the poison."
"Aphrodisiac? Love Potion? I love a good club?" Lin Wanrong suddenly became alert. "This love potion seems like a good thing. Where can I buy some for self-defense?"
Xiao Qingxuan gave him a look. "What do you need those things for? Are you planning to use them for mischief?"
Lin Wanrong shamelessly said, "Why would I need those things? I stand here; I'm the most potent love potion."
This remark was shameless. Xiao Qingxuan blushed and commented, "Encountering you is like falling into a fog. I've never encountered anything good since then."
Recalling what she said in his ear earlier, Lin Wanrong felt a tingling sensation. "Qingxuan, what did you mean by that earlier?"
With a long sigh, Xiao Qingxuan said, "I said earlier that you and Miss are lucky. You escaped the love potion, but others were not so fortunate and fell victim to it." When mentioning the aphrodisiac, a blush appeared on her face, as if it cast a shade on the stone walls.
Surprised, Lin Wanrong asked, "Qingxuan, is it you—"
Tears welled up in Xiao Qingxuan's eyes. "I was too close to the fragrance, inhaled a few breaths, and couldn't hold my breath in time. I don't know who concocted this aphrodisiac, but it's incredibly powerful. Even with some martial arts skills, I couldn't resist it. This is the injustice I caused in my past life, and now it makes me encounter you."
Lin Wanrong was stunned. Was this legendary love potion really so powerful? It was just a hormonal secretion triggered by drugs. There were alternative ways to deal with it without necessarily going to bed. For example, self-gratification, he thought darkly.
But why resort to such a cunning method when he was here? Directness was the best. He puffed up his chest and said, "Qingxuan, I was given this misfortune for your sake. As long as I can save you, I'm willing to do anything."
Xiao Qingxuan sighed, looking at him. "You take advantage of this situation and plan to use it for mischief, right?"
With a thick-skinned face, Lin Wanrong said, "I don't need those things. Just standing here, I'm the most powerful aphrodisiac."
This shameless remark made Xiao Qingxuan's face blush like it was about to drip water. She gently asked, "Wanrong, what did your words earlier mean?"
Lin Wanrong shook his head disdainfully. "I don't care about your identity. I only know you're a woman, a woman I like. Even if you're the emperor's daughter, I'll snatch you away."
Xiao Qingxuan sighed and said, "It may not be as simple as you think. In this world, there are many things that can't be solved by human efforts."
Ignoring her words, Lin Wanrong asked, "Qingxuan, what do you think of me?"
After some thought, Xiao Qingxuan shyly said, "A bit naughty, a bit mischievous, and a bit capable."
"Only a bit?" Lin Wanrong smiled. "There's nothing I, Lin Wanrong, wouldn't dare to do in this world. You should believe in me and trust your judgment."
"Blowing your own trumpet." Xiao Qingxuan's clarity was gradually fading. She looked at Lin Wanrong, her eyes becoming deeply captivated. "I don't know how I ended up talking to you every day, even though I know I shouldn't associate with you. This is my misfortune."
She knew she couldn't hold on any longer. With silver teeth lightly biting her lip, she looked at Lin Wanrong. "Do you like seeing me like this?"
Her beauty was exquisite, her temperament elegant, exuding an indescribable luxury. Looking at Lin Wanrong with a gentle smile, she slowly turned her body, her figure like a dazzling peony, blooming between heaven and earth, adding endless spring to this desolate valley, making the sun and moon lose their colors.
"Qingxuan, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen," Lin Wanrong murmured, utterly captivated. In his past life, he had been to many places, had a dozen girlfriends, but when it came to looks and temperament, none could compare to Xiao Qingxuan. It's not that he had forgotten Qiaozhi and Yushuang; those two girls were also big beauties. Qiaozhi was gentle and virtuous, Yushuang was lively and straightforward, completely different from Xiao Qingxuan. She combined stunning looks with an elegant temperament, and calling her the most beautiful was not an exaggeration.
"You're just saying sweet words to deceive me," Xiao Qingxuan's eyes were full of tears, but her face carried a sweet smile as she scolded him.
At this point, Lin Wanrong couldn't bear it anymore. He rushed forward, tightly embracing her tender body that seemed so lovable. Feeling the slight tremor in her
body, Lin Wanrong kissed her lips, his hand sweeping across her beautiful face like a gentle breeze.
The feeling was indescribably beautiful, like a fairy descending from the heavens into the mortal realm.
At this moment, Xiao Yu Ruo on the side woke up. Seeing Lin Wanrong and Xiao Qingxuan entangled in a tight embrace, her eyes widened, and her face turned red.
Lin Wanrong held Xiao Qingxuan in his arms and glanced at Xiao Yu Ruo. His eyes contained a hint of apology, but more of it was a triumphant look. Xiao Yu Ruo felt her heart tightening as she looked at the two of them. She bit her lip, her face showing a complex expression.
