Wan Ruo's heart skipped a beat. She swallowed hard and even held her breath, thinking, "How could I be discovered?"
Just as she was about to quietly take a step back and leave, something furry suddenly wrapped around her and pulled her into the room.
"Ah..." Wan Ruo let out a shrill scream in fright.
Before she knew it, she was in Bai Chen's arms. Wan Ruo blinked her big eyes and looked at Bai Chen in front of her.
At this moment, Bai Chen had two cute ears on his head and nine fluffy white tails swaying behind him. He looked extremely cute, but the look in his eyes as he stared at her was extremely cold.
Was it... his tail that just pulled me in?
Wan Ruo was terrified. She swallowed hard and instinctively tried to break free from his embrace.
"Um, how's your injury?" Wan Ruo asked weakly.
"Don't move!" Only then did Bai Chen notice that Wan Ruo's arm was also injured and hadn't been treated. The wound was a bit swollen.
Bai Chen frowned slightly and said coldly, "You care so much about others' lives. Why can't you even take care of yourself?"
What he really meant was, it's okay that you didn't care about his life while trying to save others, but why didn't you even care about your own? Didn't you even know to treat your own wound? Was there only selfless love in your heart?
Seeing that Bai Chen cared about her injury, Wan Ruo said embarrassedly, "I, I'm fine. It's just a minor injury. But you, I'm sorry. I didn't know..."
Before Wan Ruo could finish, Bai Chen put his finger on her lips to make her be quiet.
Bai Chen of course knew what she was going to say. This silly girl never thought about the consequences when doing things. How could she know the situation he was in when he risked his life to save her?
Wan Ruo blushed under Bai Chen's burning gaze. She gently took Bai Chen's hand and put it down.
"But really thank you. Because you saved Bing Tu, a war was avoided! How's your injury? Is it serious?" Wan Ruo couldn't help but express her gratitude and guilt.
Facing Wan Ruo's endless chatter, Bai Chen frowned tightly and directly kissed her to shut her up.
At the same time, he supported her injured arm and used his spiritual power to treat her wound.
When Bai Chen kissed her, Wan Ruo only felt numb all over. Her mind went blank, and her heart was pounding. She didn't even notice the pain in her arm.
She stood there stunned, letting him take what he wanted from her lips.
Just when she was about to lose her mind, she suddenly came to her senses. She wanted to say something but couldn't.
Wan Ruo pushed Bai Chen away forcefully. Her shy face was full of worry. "Wait, your injury..."
Bai Chen gave a naughty smile. "I'm treating my injury! You're my medicine!"
Hearing this, Wan Ruo blushed instantly. She looked at the ears on Bai Chen's head and the tails behind him and still couldn't help but feel a bit worried.
Seeing the look in her eyes, Bai Chen realized that she might not be able to accept his current form. So he used his mind to retract his tails and ears.
The corner of his mouth twitched upward slightly. He said seductively, "Is this better? I'm a real man! If you don't believe it, touch me!"
Bai Chen gently took off the lapel of his clothes on his shoulder, revealing his strong chest muscles. He said charmingly.
Seeing that he had unbuttoned his clothes, Wan Ruo involuntarily closed her eyes tightly, looking like she was avoiding improper sights!
Seeing her appearance of staying away from men, Bai Chen thought she was cute and couldn't help but want to tease her. He held her face and slowly kissed her.
At this moment, Wan Ruo's heart was pounding. She no longer cared about many things and just wanted to follow her heart. So she began to respond to him slowly.
Feeling her response, Bai Chen was even more excited. The corner of his mouth twitched upward slightly, and he began to explore more deeply.
He tore at her clothes, and her fair skin and curvy figure were completely exposed in front of him. "This is what you owe me. I want all of you!"
"Feel me with your whole body and soul! Ruo Ruo!" Bai Chen's gentle gaze fell on her face. He said affectionately and then began to kiss her neck.
"Ah..." Wan Ruo couldn't help but feel numb all over and let out a seductive groan, which stimulated Bai Chen's nerves.
She was burning hot all over, and her face was flushed. She didn't dare to look directly into Bai Chen's burning gaze. She whispered and begged him to let her go.
But the more Wan Ruo was like this, the more Bai Chen's animal desire and possessiveness were aroused!
She had walked straight into his trap. How could he let her go so easily?
This night was destined to be a sleepless one, a night when she would be tortured to the extreme.
The next day, Si Hongxi entered the palace to see the emperor early in the morning.
He expressed his thoughts to the emperor and presented the waist token that Wan Ruo had given him to the emperor for inspection.
Sure enough, the moment the emperor saw the waist token, he immediately had an idea in his mind.
Of course, he knew the nature of his sons.
Power struggles and intrigues were constantly happening in the royal family. This was very common.
It seemed that there were quite a few of his sons who were coveting the throne!
After seeing the emperor, Si Hongxi stopped by to visit Princess An Yao.
But he didn't know that at this moment, the Second Prince You Guang was in the Yiru Palace.
Normally, the Second Prince rarely went out. Because he was in poor health, he rarely interacted with others.
But in the palace, You Guang was very kind to An Yao. Hearing that An Yao was about to marry far away, he came to see her. Since he was in poor health and had been living in the deep palace and couldn't go out, he also wanted to take this opportunity to let An Yao take him out of the palace to have a look and relax.
"But Brother Emperor, have you asked Father Emperor for permission? Can your body really go out?" An Yao asked worriedly.
Hearing An Yao's worry, You Guang couldn't help but smile faintly. "I'm just a bit weak because of my old illness. I'm not disabled. It's okay! And going out of the palace for a walk will also help with my illness. Father Emperor knows this! I've heard that you've often gone out of the palace these days. You must be familiar with the environment outside. So I thought you could take me around. Maybe one day you'll be gone, and then there won't be a chance."
"You're right. I've made good friends outside the palace!" An Yao said confidently.
Good friends? At this moment, You Guang's eyes suddenly became sharp, revealing mystery and calculation.
Just then, Si Hongxi walked in. "Good friends? What good friends?"
"Brother Hongxi? Why are you here?" An Yao was very happy to see Si Hongxi.
As soon as Si Hongxi entered the door, he saw You Guang. He stepped forward and saluted. "Second Prince? You're here too!"
"Hongxi? Long time no see. No need to salute!" You Guang said politely.
"Brother Hongxi, we were just talking about things outside the palace! Just now, Brother Emperor wanted to go out of the palace with me. Let's go together! Call Ruo Ruo. What do you think?" An Yao was very excited at the mention of going out of the palace.
Ruo Ruo? Hearing this sensitive name, both of them felt a bit uneasy in their hearts!
"Ruo Ruo? Is she the good friend you made outside the palace just now?" You Guang asked suspiciously.
At this moment, when Si Hongxi heard the Second Prince asking about Wan Ruo's news, he immediately became a bit vigilant. He frowned slightly and looked at him.
But An Yao didn't notice Si Hongxi's reaction at all. She said happily, "Yes. She's extremely beautiful and kind! You'll definitely like her when you see her!"
Oh? Really? Hearing what An Yao said, You Guang instantly became extremely interested in Wan Ruo. His eyes became dark, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth!
