Chapter 726 Then This Humble One Will Trust the Prince Once
Xue Linglong suddenly felt some regret.
She felt that coming back to Yan County was like walking into a trap.
Although she had long considered this man to be very formidable, it was precisely because he was formidable that she was able to indulge herself.
Now she realized that this man was even more brutal than she had imagined.
From dawn to dusk, then from night to dawn...
When Xue Linglong woke up, she found herself in an unknown room.
Her head still felt muddled, and after getting up, she shook her head vigorously and glanced around the room's layout.
This should not be the resting room of the North Prince Mansion's study; she remembered that the resting room was decorated with many calligraphy and paintings and had a scholarly aroma.
But this room was filled with fragrance, predominantly pink in color, and the atmosphere seemed somewhat seductive.
Seeing Xue Linglong wake up, a maid in the room immediately came over, "Lady Xue, you're awake?"
"Do you need to bathe? The hot water is already prepared."
Upon hearing the maid's words, Xue Linglong raised her hand, massaging her temples while asking, "Where is this place?"
The maid answered, "This is the bedroom prepared by the Prince for Lady Xue. The Prince said from now on Lady Xue will live in this courtyard."
Upon hearing this, Xue Linglong scoffed in her heart; that bastard really intends to keep her as a plaything for his pleasure.
Anyway, now was not the time to think about these things. She felt sticky all over and needed to take a quick bath.
With that in mind, Xue Linglong said, "Where is the tub? Lead me to it."
Xue Linglong had not bathed in the North Prince Mansion before, so she was unaware of the facilities and assumed it would be soaking in a tub.
The maid promptly said, "Please follow this servant, Lady Xue."
Then the maid led Xue Linglong into the Prince's Mansion's bathing chamber. Upon seeing the bath in front of her, Xue Linglong was momentarily stunned. She hadn't expected that the room Lu Chen had arranged for her was this nice, even featuring a bath.
She stepped into the bath, and the warm water enveloped her body. The fatigue from yesterday slowly dissipated, and she felt much more alert, her head no longer as cloudy as before.
At that moment, Xue Linglong lifted her smooth and fair arms, gently agitating the warm water in the bath while sighing.
She didn't know if her choice was the right one. Although she was beautiful, she would grow old one day; she couldn't be Lu Chen's plaything forever. Eventually, the bastard would tire of her.
Therefore, she had to find a way out for herself.
But just the thought of what that man had done to her yesterday made a blush involuntarily spread across Xue Linglong's face. She felt her mind was breaking, despite how much that man tormented her, she had already become infatuated with that sensation.
Xue Linglong thought to herself that all this must have something to do with that man; he must have done something to her; that's why she was like this...n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
In fact, Dragon and Phoenix Tea could indeed deepen a woman's feelings for Lu Chen, but that was all; it was just an intensification of feelings. As for Xue Linglong's reactions, they were completely driven by her own desires. Your next read awaits at empire
Take the other women in the Prince's Mansion, for example. After being with Lu Chen, they remained quite chaste and abstinent for a few days, unless Lu Chen actively stirred their emotions.
The women of the Prince's Mansion were not like Xue Linglong, who, despite being tormented to death by Lu Chen, was already thinking about it again after not much time had passed.
When Xue Linglong emerged from the bath, a maid entered the room and said to Xue Linglong, "Lady Xue, after you have bathed, the Prince has asked you to find him in the study."
Upon hearing this, Xue Linglong paused, but then she thought that after the man had tormented her for so long, he probably wouldn't continue that sort of thing again; it was likely he wanted her cooperation to round up those from the Taiyin Divine Sect.
Thinking this, Xue Linglong let the maids quickly dress her up, and then she wore her favorite black dress and headed once more to the place where they had battled yesterday.
When Xue Linglong arrived at the study, Lu Chen was reviewing documents with a very serious look.
Xue Linglong said, "The Prince is truly formidable, able to go without sleep for days and nights."
Without looking up, Lu Chen said, "I have reached the Pseudo-Celestial Realm; going without sleep for days and nights is nothing to me."
Xue Linglong went straight to the point, "Just say it, Prince; why have you summoned me here?"
"I don't believe the Prince wants to assault me again."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled, then raised his hand, and in the next instant Xue Linglong's body flew into the air, landing directly in Lu Chen's arms.
With Xue Linglong's soft body in his embrace, he whispered in her ear, "Assault, when have I ever assaulted you?"
As he spoke, Lu Chen's hands started to roam, fondling her restless body, and Xue Linglong became restless once again.
She quickly said, "The Prince must be concerned about the matter of the Taiyin Divine Sect. I will do my best to cooperate with the Prince to deal with those people from the Taiyin Divine Sect."
Lu Chen stopped teasing Xue Linglong and said, "I will soon be leading troops southward. With members of the Taiyin Divine Sect in Yan County, I cannot be at ease. Therefore, those from the Taiyin Divine Sect must all die."
