Jiang Xuan thought he had finally figured out how to handle Xia Xiao Yu. He was gearing up to sweet-talk her into heading back to the Xia family like a good little girl.
But the moment he heard her voice, it sent shivers down his spine. He remembered this was the alternate version of Xia Xiao Yu.
And let me tell you, this version of her was way harder to deal with.
Just then, Xia Xiao Yu started to slowly back away from Jiang Xuan.
He noticed her golden eyes had morphed into a bright crimson color.
Of course, his assumption was spot on.
Before Jiang Xuan could even say a word, Xia Xiao Yu gently lifted his chin and said sweetly, “Brother Xuan, your skills are impressive! Not only did you swipe my Recording Stone, but you also managed to toy around with the other me.
But unlike her, I’m not that benevolent. You aren’t my fiancé, so I won’t feel a shred of remorse. Really, I just want to satisfy my cravings for you.”
Jiang Xuan: “!!!!!!!”
“What do you mean by that, Xiao Yu? I’m a bit lost here…”
“Don’t worry, Brother Xuan, you don’t need to understand. Let’s put it this way: taking my Recording Stone means our deal is already sealed.
I won’t be asking for that Recording Stone back. In return, you better meet my demands.”
“Xiao Yu, calm down. I’m not doing this kind of deal! I… I’ll just give you back the Recording Stone.”
As soon as he finished, Jiang Xuan pulled out the Recording Stone and handed it over.
Once Xia Xiao Yu received it, she ripped off Jiang Xuan’s shirt like a party pooper and flopped onto the bed, activating the Recording Stone.
This smooth operation left Jiang Xuan utterly dumbfounded.
“Wait! Xia Xiao Yu! I just gave you back the Recording Stone! Why are you still doing this?!”
“Calm down, Brother Xuan! I left the Recording Stone with you earlier, just to get a little something in return. Totally normal, right?
Besides, I’m a bad girl, and bad girls never keep promises, right?
Oh, and you wouldn’t want that Recording Stone’s footage to go public, especially the latest scenes, would you?
But don’t worry, I’ll keep it safe. If it accidentally leaks, it will just be for your fiancée to see.
Let’s hope she understands the bond we have as childhood friends.
Of course, if she ends up disliking you because of it, it just means she’s not worthy of you.
Don’t worry! I’ll always be here for you, Brother Xuan.”
Jiang Xuan: “!!!!!!!”
At this moment, Jiang Xuan’s inner thoughts screamed:
【Xia Xiao Yu is really digging her own grave deeper and deeper! And she’s dragging me down with her!】
Just thinking about his recent close call, he hurriedly called for the System.
But, of course, the System didn’t reply. The system interface displayed that the System was currently undergoing maintenance and upgrading.
Jiang Xuan was a bit excited about the System’s upgrade, but seriously, the timing couldn’t be worse!
Meanwhile, Xia Xiao Yu waved the Recording Stone and continued, “Want it back, Brother Xuan? We can make a trade.”
Jiang Xuan, now calmed down, pretended to be heartbroken. “Xiao Yu, after knowing each other for so long, I can’t believe you’ve fallen to this level.”
He gazed at her with disappointment.
To him, even though Xia Xiao Yu’s personality had changed drastically, deep down, she was still the same person and could be reasoned with.
However, Xia Xiao Yu just pinched his face playfully and teased, “Brother Xuan, you’re already disappointed in me? And I haven’t even done anything yet? No worries, you’ll be even more disappointed later.
I was here first, and now that your heavenly fiancé wants to interrupt? Let’s see who gets who!”
This night was bound to be anything but peaceful.
Xia Xiao Yu’s craziness exceeded all of Jiang Xuan’s wildest expectations.
She didn’t give him a single chance to sweet-talk her; instead, she spent the long night pouring out all the repressed feelings she had for him over the years.
“Brother Xuan, do you know how I ended up in this state?
It’s because I fell seriously ill from missing you.
And today, I’m going to unleash that longing!”
“Brother Xuan, let’s do this again. You don’t want your fiancée getting a peek at the Recording Stone, do you?”
“Brother Xuan, you haven’t been touched by anyone all these years? Clearly, there’s still a place for me in your heart. Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle.”
“Huh? Brother Xuan is actually asking me for a favor? Are you worn out already?
Oh, I almost forgot, your cultivation level is too weak; you can’t handle much.
No worries, we’ll carry on! I’ll make sure to feed you something good tomorrow.”
“What? Brother Xuan, you don’t want me to spill the beans about you asking me for help? Well, that depends on your performance.”
…..
Jiang Xuan: “!!!!!!!”
Having been reincarnated in this world for so long, it was the first time Jiang Xuan felt such overwhelming despair and powerlessness.
No matter how he resisted or complied, he was completely overpowered by Xia Xiao Yu, like a puppet dangling on strings.
Xia Xiao Yu worryingly cooed at him, “Brother Xuan, since you can’t fight back, why not just enjoy it?”
After saying that, Xia Xiao Yu continued to soothe him.
Her initially clumsy movements were steadily getting more adept.
Even more astonishingly, her aura was visibly growing stronger by the minute.
One eye turned gold, and the other crimson.
Finally, when her eyes completely changed to gold, she glanced at the chaotic bed and the flabbergasted Jiang Xuan below, and surprisingly, she fainted with a smile on her lips.
After passing out, a faint smile lingered at the corners of her mouth.
At that moment, Jiang Xuan, already drained and devoid of life in his gaze, also fell into unconsciousness.
The next morning, when Jiang Xuan finally dragged himself out of bed, he noticed that he was the only one in the room.
Just as he thought the previous day’s events were all a bad dream, he caught sight of his tattered clothes and the disaster zone his bed had become.
He then discovered a letter and a storage ring next to him. He picked up the letter and read its contents:
“Brother Xuan, I’m sorry about what happened yesterday. I couldn’t conquer the deep-seated obsession within me.
It led me to unavoidably force you into those things.
Under the influence of desire, I did many harmful things to you, but I promise to take responsibility afterward.
Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye, as I’m still unsure how to face you going forward.
Also, I left a storage ring for you—I’ve included cultivation resources from my master, as well as the Recording Stone.
I hope this helps to make up for the harm caused.
Love you, Xiao Yu.”
After finishing the letter, Jiang Xuan was left dumbfounded.
Xia Xiao Yu basically took what she wanted and ran off! The only moral gesture was giving him some spirit stones afterward.
But it wasn’t even about how many spirit stones were involved! If Nangong Liu Yun found out about his rendezvous with Xia Xiao Yu, it’d be game over for him.
Just then, outside his room, he heard several voices.
“Young Lady Nangong, this is the courtyard where the young master resides.
The head of the family got drunk last night and hasn’t woken up yet. If Young Lady Nangong needs anything, you can talk to the young master; he should be awake by now.”
As the maid finished speaking, Nangong Liu Yun knocked on Jiang Xuan’s door.
“Hubby, are you awake? Can I come in?”
Jiang Xuan: “!!!!!!!!”
